Independent Auditor’s Report on Standalone Annual Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI ( Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
To the Board of Directors of AGC Networks Limited
Qualified Opinion
-
We have audited the accompanying standalone annual financial results (‘the Statement’) of AGC Networks Limited (‘the Company’) for the year ended 31 March 2020, attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended) (‘Listing Regulations’), including relevant circulars issued by the SEBI from time to time.
-
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Statement:
-
(i) presents standalone financial results in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations, except for the effects of the matter described in paragraph 3 below; and
-
(ii) gives a true and fair view in conformity with the applicable Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS’) prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’), read with relevant rules issued thereunder, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the standalone net loss after tax and other comprehensive loss and other financial information of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2020 except for the effects of the matter described in paragraph 3 below.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
- As stated in Note 8 to the accompanying standalone financial results, during the previous year ended 31 March 2019, the Company had recorded only the differential amount of Rs 1.11 Crores, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment, being the difference between the sale consideration of a certain property re-assigned to a new buyer and the outstanding receivable from an earlier sale transaction was incorrectly recorded without the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership of such property in the year ended 31 March 2015.
Had the Company followed the principles of Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, and corrected the aforementioned errors relating to incorrect recognition of sale in earlier year, of the said property, in accordance with Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, exceptional item (income), representing gain on sale of property, plant and equipment, for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 22.79 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil), while depreciation expense for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 0.02 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil).

Independent Auditor’s Report on Standalone Annual Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI ( Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
Our reports on the standalone financial results for the quarter ended 31 December 2019 and year ended 31 March 2019 were also qualified in respect of the above matter, and accordingly, our opinion on the accompanying standalone financial results for the year ended 31 March 2020 is also qualified with respect to the effects of this matter on the comparability of current and corresponding figures in the accompanying standalone financial results.
- We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (‘SAs’) specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘ Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement’ 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 (‘the ICAI’) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Emphasis of Matters - Impact of COVID 19 on the Statement and compliances with laws and regulations
-
We draw attention to Note 12 to the accompanying standalone financial results with respect to delay in repatriation of proceeds of export of goods and services and delay in remittance for import payments, aggregating to Rs. 1.37 Crores and Rs. 4.33 Crores, respectively as on 31 March 2020 beyond the timelines stipulated, under the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 and regulations thereunder. The management of the Company is in the process of filing, and in some cases, has filed necessary applications seeking extension of time, approval for write off of foreign currency payables and condonation of delays with appropriate authorities for regularising these defaults, subsequent to 31 March 2020. Pending conclusion on these matters, management is of the view that the possible fines / penalties, which may be levied, are currently unascertainable but are not expected to be material and accordingly, the accompanying standalone financial results do not include any consequential adjustments that may be required due to such delay / default.
-
We draw your attention to Note 13 to the accompanying standalone financial results, which describes the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations. In view of the uncertainties in the economic environment due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, the impact on the operations of the Company is significantly dependent on the future developments as they evolve.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matters.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Statement
- This Statement has been prepared on the basis of the standalone annual audited financial statements and has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Statement that gives a true and fair view of the net loss and other comprehensive loss and other financial information of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Ind AS prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Statement that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Independent Auditor’s Report on Standalone Annual Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI ( Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
-
In preparing the Statement, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern, and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
-
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement
-
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is 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 Standards on Auditing, specified under Section 143(10) of the Act, 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 this Statement.
-
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Statement, 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 in place adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the 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 Statement 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 content of the Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the Statement represents 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.

- (a) Represents reversal of inventory provisions made in earlier years to reflect lower of cost and net realisable value. The Company has entered into an agreement with a buyer for sale of these inventories.
(b) Represents interest income on sale consideration receivable from the erstwhile buyer with respect to sale of property situated at Gandhinagar.
-
(c) Represents profit on sale of property, plant and equipment situated at Gandhinagar.
-
8) During the year ended 31 March 2015, the Company entered into deed of assignment to transfer all the rights, title and obligations of its land and building situated at Gandhinagar to another company for a consideration of Rs. 44.63 Crores. During April 2015, the lender to whom these assets were provided as security provided its in-principle approval for the said transfer subject to fulfilment of conditions stated therein. The said transfer was pending approval from the relevant government authority and transfer of legal title that were considered to be procedural in nature. Accordingly, the Company had recognised profit on sale of property, plant and equipment of Rs. 40.85 Crores (net of incidental expenses Rs. 3.04 Crores) during the year ended 31 March 2015.
During the year ended 31 March 2019, the said property was re-assigned in the name of the Company by the buyer since the buyer expressed its inability to get the aforementioned sale deed registered with the relevant government authority. Subsequently, the said property had been transferred to another buyer through a separate sale transaction for a consideration of Rs. 23.51 Crores, and the Company had recorded the differential amount of Rs.1.11 Crores between the said consideration and balance receivable as at re-assignment date from the earlier recognised sale, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment. The amount of consideration already received amounting to Rs. 22.23 Crores as at re-assignment date from the erstwhile buyer is not required to be refunded by the Company. The entire transaction stands completed.
9) Adoption of new accounting standard on leases - Ind AS 116
The Company has adopted Ind AS 116, "Leases", effective 1 April 2019, using modified retrospective approach, as a result of which comparative information is not required to be restated. The Company has discounted lease payments using the incremental borrowing rate as at 1 April 2019 for measuring lease liabilities at Rs. 20.65 Crores and accordingly recognised rightof-use assets at Rs. 19.06 Crores by adjusting retained earnings by Rs. 1.59 Crores, as at the aforesaid date. The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to short term leases and certain leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. In the standalone statement of profit and loss for the current period, the expenses in respect of operating leases are recognised as amortisation of right of use assets and finance cost, as compared to lease rent in previous periods, and to this extent standalone results for the current period are not comparable.
The impact of adopting Ind AS -116 on the standalone financial results for the quarter / year ended 31 March 2020 is as follows:
| Particulars | (Rs. in Crores) 31/03/2020 (Erstwhile basis) 31/03/2020 (As per Ind AS -116) Increase / (decrease) in profit 31/03/2020 (Erstwhile basis) 31/03/2020 (As per Ind AS -116) Increase / (decrease) in profit 3.83 4.52 (0.69) 15.51 18.50 (2.99) 0.36 1.84 (1.48) 1.60 7.46 (5.86) 7.74 5.91 1.83 38.23 30.68 7.55 12.19 11.85 (0.34) (0.33) (1.63) (1.30) Quarter ended Year ended |

-
11) As on 1 April 2019, the Company had not appointed at least one of its independent directors as a director on the board of directors of its unlisted material subsidiary entities incorporated outside India.

-
12) The outstanding balance of trade receivables and trade payables as appearing in standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2020 include amount receivable aggregating to Rs. 1.37 Crores and amount payable aggregating to Rs. 4.33 Crores respectively from / to the companies situated outside India. These balances are pending for settlement and have resulted in delay in collection / remittance beyond the timeline stipulated under the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999. The Company has filed the necessary applications with the appropriate authority for extension of time period / condonation of such delays subsequent to 31 March 2020. Pending conclusion of the aforesaid matter, the amount of penalty, if any, that may be levied, is not ascertainable and accordingly, the accompanying standalone financial results do not include any adjustments that may arise due to such delay / default.
Out of the above-mentioned receivables, the Company has filed application with AD Category - I bank (“AD Bank”) during the year for extension of time limit for an amount aggregating to Rs. 0.44 Crores. However, approval is pending from AD Bank as at 31 March 2020. Also, Company has remitted foreign payment aggregating to Rs. 1.79 Crores towards imports subsequent to 31 March 2020.

13) The spread of COVID-19, a pandemic caused by the novel Coronavirus, is having an unprecedented impact on global economy and way of doing business. The Company has responded to the situation swiftly and maintained business operations with the support of their customers, vendors, employees and other stakeholders through the crisis. There has been no significantly adverse impact on the operations and results for the year ended 31 March 2020. The Company has considered the possible effects that may result from the pandemic relating to COVID-19 on the carrying amounts of trade receivables, inventories, tangible assets, intangible assets, investments and other financial assets and continues to monitor changes in future economic conditions. In developing the assumptions relating to the possible future uncertainties in the economic conditions because of this pandemic, the Company, as at the date of approval of these standalone financial results, has used internal and external sources of information and based on current estimates, expects that the carrying amount of these assets will be recovered. The eventual outcome of the impact of the pandemic may be different from those estimated as on the date of approval of these standalone financial results.

| II. | Audi | tor’s qualification | ||
| a. | Details of Audit Qualification: | (i) Auditor's qualification on annual audited financial results (standalone) As stated in Note 8 to the accompanying standalone financial results, during the previous year ended 31 March 2019, the Company had recorded only the differential amount of Rs 1.11 Crores, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment, being the difference between the sale consideration of a certain property re-assigned to a new buyer and the outstanding receivable from an earlier sale transaction was incorrectly recorded without the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership of such property in the year ended 31 March 2015. Had the Company followed the principles of Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, and corrected the aforementioned errors relating to incorrect recognition of sale in earlier year, of the said property, in accordance with Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, exceptional item (income), representing gain on sale of property, plant and equipment, for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 22.79 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil), while depreciation expense for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 0.02 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil). Our reports on the standalone financial results for the quarter ended 31 December 2019 and year ended 31 March 2019 were also qualified in respect of the above matter, and accordingly, our opinion on the accompanying standalone financial results for the year ended 31 March 2020 is also qualified with respect to the effects of this matter on the comparability of current and corresponding figures in the accompanying standalone financial results. |

| b. | Type of Audit Qualification: | Qualified Opinion | ||
| c. | Frequency of Qualification: | Auditor's qualification on annual audited financial results (standalone) has been appearing from the year ended 31 March 2015 and has been updated for the year ended 31 March 2020 based on the facts mentioned under the qualification para. |
||
| d. | For Audit Qualification (s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management views: |
During the year ended 31 March 2015, the Company entered into deed of assignment to transfer all the rights, title and obligations of its land and building situated at Gandhinagar to another company for a consideration of Rs. 44.63 Crores. During April 2015, the lender to whom these assets were provided as security provided its in-principle approval for the said transfer subject to fulfilment of conditions stated therein. The said transfer was pending approval from the relevant government authority and transfer of legal title that were considered to be procedural in nature. Accordingly, the Company had recognised profit on sale of property, plant and equipment of Rs. 40.85 Crores (net of incidental expenses Rs. 3.04 Crores) during the year ended 31 March 2015. During the year ended 31 March 2019, the said property was re-assigned in the name of the Company by the buyer since the buyer expressed its inability to get the aforementioned sale deed registered with the relevant government authority. Subsequently, the said property had been transferred to another buyer through a separate sale transaction for a consideration of Rs. 23.51 Crores, and the Company had recorded the differential amount of Rs.1.11 Crores between the said consideration and balance receivable as at re-assignment date from the earlier recognised sale, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment. The amount of consideration already received amounting to Rs. 22.23 Crores as at re-assignment date from the erstwhile buyer is not required to be refunded by the Company. The entire transaction stands completed. |

Independent Auditor’s Report on Consolidated Annual Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI ( Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
Our reports on the consolidated financial results for the quarter ended 31 December 2019 and year ended 31 March 2019 were also qualified in respect of the above matter, and accordingly, our opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial results for the year ended 31 March 2020 is also qualified with respect to the effects of this matter on the comparability of current and corresponding figures in the accompanying consolidated financial results.
- We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (‘SAs’) specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement’ section of our report. We are independent of the Group, in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘the ICAI’) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act, and the rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and that obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in paragraph 14 of the Other Matters section below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Emphasis of Matter - Impact of COVID 19
- We draw attention to Note 18 to the accompanying consolidated financial results, which describes the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the Group’s operations. In view of the uncertainties in the economic environment due to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, the impact on the operations of the Group is significantly dependent on the future developments as they evolve. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Statement
-
The Statement, which is the responsibility of the Holding Company’s management and has been approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors, has been prepared on the basis of the consolidated annual audited financial statements. The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Statement that gives a true and fair view of the consolidated net profit after tax and other comprehensive loss, and other financial information of the Group in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is also responsible for ensuring accuracy of records including financial information considered necessary for the preparation of the Statement. Further, in terms of the provisions of the Act, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group, covered under the Act, are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act, for safeguarding of the assets of the Group, and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively, for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial results, that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. These consolidated financial results have been used for the purpose of preparation of the Statement by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement
-
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is 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 Standards on Auditing, specified under Section 143(10) of the Act, 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 this Statement.
-
As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Statement, 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 Holding Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the 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 ability of the Group, 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 Statement 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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the Statement represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial statements of the entities within the Group, to express an opinion on the Statement. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of financial information of such entities included in the Statement, of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the Statement, which have been audited by the other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
-
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company, 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.
-
We also performed procedures in accordance with SEBI Circular CIR / CFD / CMD1 / 44 / 2019 dated 29 March 2019, issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33 (8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.

Our opinion, in so far as it relates to the balances and affairs of this subsidiary, is based on the audit report of other auditors and the conversion adjustments prepared by the management of the Holding Company and audited by us.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter with respect to our reliance on the work done by and the reports of the other auditors.

These consolidated financial results have been furnished to us by the Holding Company’s management. Our opinion, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of aforesaid subsidiary, is based solely on such unaudited / unreviewed consolidated financial results. In our opinion, and according to the information and explanations given to us by the management, these consolidated financial results are not material to the Group.

8) During the year ended 31 March 2015, the Holding Company entered into deed of assignment to transfer all the rights, title and obligations of its land and building situated at Gandhinagar to another company for a consideration of Rs. 44.63 Crores. During April 2015, the lender to whom these assets were provided as security provided its in-principle approval for the said transfer subject to fulfilment of conditions stated therein. The said transfer was pending approval from the relevant government authority and transfer of legal title that were considered to be procedural in nature. Accordingly, the Holding Company had recognised profit on sale of property, plant and equipment of Rs. 40.85 Crores (net of incidental expenses Rs. 3.04 Crores) during the year ended 31 March 2015.
During the year ended 31 March 2019, the said property was re-assigned in the name of the Holding Company by the buyer since the buyer expressed its inability to get the aforementioned sale deed registered with the relevant government authority. Subsequently, the said property had been transferred to another buyer through a separate sale transaction for a consideration of Rs. 23.51 Crores, and the Holding Company had recorded the differential amount of Rs.1.11 Crores between the said consideration and balance receivable as at reassignment date from the earlier recognised sale, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment. The amount of consideration already received amounting to Rs. 22.23 Crores as at reassignment date from the erstwhile buyer is not required to be refunded by the Holding Company. The entire transaction stands completed.
- 9) Adoption of new accounting standard on leases - Ind AS 116 The Group has adopted Ind AS 116, "Leases", effective 1 April 2019, using modified retrospective approach, as a result of which comparative information is not required to be restated. The Group has discounted lease payments using the incremental borrowing rate as at 1 April 2019 for measuring lease liabilities at Rs. 143 Crores and accordingly recognised right-of-use assets at Rs. 132.86 Crores (after adjusting prepaid lease rent) by adjusting retained earnings by Rs. 8.02 Crores, as at the aforesaid date. The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to short term leases and certain leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. In the consolidated statement of profit and loss for the current period, the expenses in respect of operating leases are recognised as amortisation of right of use assets and finance cost, as compared to lease rent in previous periods, and to this extent consolidated results for the current period are not comparable.
The impact of adopting Ind AS -116 on the consolidated financial results for the quarter / year ended 31 March 2020 is as follows:
(Rs. in Crores)

Notes on segment information :
1 Further to the significant acquisitions in January 2019, the Board has reviewed the segmental presentation of financial information; it was required to assess performance and allocate resources. The Board now considers a business activity focused reporting format to be more meaningful from a management forecasting perspective.
2 Assets and liabilities used in the Group's business are not identifiable to any of the reportable segments, as these are used interchangeably between segments. The management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.

| a. | Details of Audit Qualification: | (i) Auditor's qualification on annual audited financial results (consolidation) As stated in Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial results, during the previous year ended 31 March 2019, the Holding Company had recorded only the differential amount of Rs 1.11 Crores, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment, being the difference between the sale consideration of a certain property re-assigned to a new buyer and the outstanding receivable from an earlier sale transaction incorrectly recorded without the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership of such property in the year ended 31 March 2015. Had the Holding Company followed the principles of Ind AS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, and corrected the aforementioned errors relating to incorrect recognition of sale in earlier year, of the said property, in accordance with Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, exceptional item (income), representing gain on sale of property, plant and equipment, for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 22.79 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil), while depreciation expense for the year ended 31 March 2019 would have been higher by Rs. 0.02 Crores (quarter ended 31 March 2019: Nil). Our reports on the consolidated financial results for the quarter ended 31 December 2019 and year ended 31 March 2019 were also qualified in respect of the above matter, and accordingly, our opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial results for the year ended 31 March 2020 is also qualified with respect to the effects of this matter on the comparability of current and corresponding figures in the accompanying consolidated financial results. |

| d. | For Audit Qualification (s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management views: |
During the year ended 31 March 2015, the Holding Company entered into deed of assignment to transfer all the rights, title and obligations of its land and building situated at Gandhinagar to another company for a consideration of Rs. 44.63 Crores. During April 2015, the lender to whom these assets were provided as security provided its in-principle approval for the said transfer subject to fulfilment of conditions stated therein. The said transfer was pending approval from the relevant government authority and transfer of legal title that were considered to be procedural in nature. Accordingly, the Holding Company had recognised profit on sale of property, plant and equipment of Rs. 40.85 Crores (net of incidental expenses Rs. 3.04 Crores) during the year ended 31 March 2015. During the year ended 31 March 2019, the said property was re-assigned in the name of the Holding Company by the buyer since the buyer expressed its inability to get the aforementioned sale deed registered with the relevant government authority. Subsequently, the said property had been transferred to another buyer through a separate sale transaction for a consideration of Rs. 23.51 Crores, and the Holding Company had recorded the differential amount of Rs.1.11 Crores between the said consideration and balance receivable as at re-assignment date from the earlier recognised sale, as profit on sale of property, plant and equipment. The amount of consideration already received amounting to Rs. 22.23 Crores as at re-assignment date from the erstwhile buyer is not required to be refunded by the Holding Company. The entire transaction stands completed. |

present at customer sites depending on customer requirement with all protective equipment including face masks, face shields, gloves and Hazmat suit.
We are adhering guideline issued by various local bodies to sanitize our offices while we are reopening our offices in phases in various countries.
6. Estimation of the future impact of COVID-19 on its operations:
This unprecedented crisis is rapidly evolving and has created lot of uncertainties around the world and particularly in India, Europe and the United States of America. The extent of the impact on Company’s operations, including the duration and scale of such impact, is dependent on several factors that we may not be able to estimate currently due to evolving and dynamic situation.
We are conscious of the demand pressures in FY2021 following the pandemic. The Company is in discussions with all its customers and based on our current assessment, we expect low-double digit decline in revenues for Q1 FY21 as compared with Q4 FY20 with revenue growth recovery starting from Q2FY21.
Regarding the impact on the specific industry verticals, the Company has negligible exposure to specific stressed verticals which bore the maximum first order impact from this pandemic. Within industry verticals where the Company operates, our Retail, Manufacturing and Energy & Utilities verticals shall see the highest negative impact during these times. We expect steady performance from our Healthcare, Financial Services and Consumer Goods verticals as these businesses are better placed versus the broader economy during this crisis.
While in the short term the Company expects some demand pressure, it also sees growth opportunities over the longer term as we accelerate digital transformation initiatives for our customers and offer cloud based solutions.
