Management Discussion and Analysis

This year we have attempted to change the approach and content of the MD&A, based on feedback on various occasions. The intent is to provide a broader and consolidated background to our aspiration, vision and strategy, all of which have been discussed at various investor forums. We have attempted to discuss results from a historical perspective to provide some context to our journey till date. We will continue to fine tune and improve the structure and content in the future years, based on feedback.

The focus of this section is on the compressor business and it contains multiple sub-sections. We start with the Aspiration and Vision of the company, followed by our Strategy and the Performance.

Aspiration and Vision

Over the past 25 years, we have built this company to move towards becoming a significant player in global markets. The genesis of this journey was in the early 1990s, when India dismantled its protectionist barriers and opened the country to global competitive forces. Like all companies in India at that time, the "right to play" was primarily a combination of the licensing system combined with technical collaboration with leading companies in the western world. With the removal of the licensing system and the platform set for direct participation of the erstwhile willing licensors, the "right to play" was under threat.

After evaluating options including joint venture and divestment, we decided to take the long hard path of building all the competencies required to develop and retain the "right to play". The decision was to focus on the compressors and automotive equipment business and thus we divested or shut down all the other businesses, such as braking systems for trucks, pasteurizers and washers for the breweries, drip irrigation etc. Besides building strong manufacturing systems and quality systems we built internal capabilities to develop our own technology and products. The cost for such a large exercise could not be justified by the size of the Indian market and per se, we had to look at global opportunities. Besides, the Indian market was a small percentage of the total global market for compressors and hence the global market presented a great opportunity. In addition, even to remain relevant in the Indian market, under the changed competitive circumstances, these developments were necessary.

Aspiration: We moved along this journey and in 2013, after gaining a granular understanding of the global opportunity, we defined our aspiration more specifically with a time line. Our aspiration was to become number 2 in the world in air compressors by the year 2027. We titled this aspiration as CK2 or Conquer K2 - K2 is the second tallest mountain in the world and the most difficult to climb and it symbolized our intended journey. Numerically, we set ourselves a revenue goal of \$1.6

Billion, which was higher than the revenue of the number 2 player at that time.

At that time, the gap between the number 1 player and the number 2 player was almost 70% - a significant and abnormal gap for a mature capital equipment business where you typically see a gap of between 20-30%. The number 1 player had consistency in purpose and built the business on fundamentals of products, technology, people, process, brands and markets whereas the number 2 had a vacillating commitment to the air compressor business. This gap was an opportunity for another player with constancy of purpose and which had all the foundations in place. We believed and continue to believe, that this is an opportunity for us.

This is a lucrative business from two fundamental dimensions of stability. One, compressed air is an energy source that is required in almost all forms of manufacturing. This provides a diversified revenue source without a dependence on any specific industry vertical. Two, the geographical opportunity reduces the risk of dependence on any one economy and its business cycle.

This is also a lucrative business from a profitability point of view that further justifies our aspiration. The compressor business has a significant recurring revenue in the form of aftermarket parts and services. The recurring revenue percentage ranges anywhere between 30-50% of total revenue, depending upon the maturity of the presence of the company in the equipment side of the market and extent of services over and above parts. Higher the presence, higher the percentage of recurring revenue. This means that getting a large installed base of equipment is a foundation for realizing the profits from aftermarket. The graph below, using data for one of the product verticals, illustrates how a significant installed base can generate sizeable profits.

Focusing only on parts, aftermarket is 2-3X more profitable at gross margin levels compared to equipment. On a conservative basis, a \$1 sales of equipment will deliver \$1.2 of profits over 10 years, only from consumable parts and without services and replacement parts.

This business has a particularly lucrative segment in oilfree compressors. This segment is about 20-25% of the total market size, including equipment and aftermarket. The profitability of this segment, both on equipment and aftermarket is at least 2X the oillubricated segment. This segment is dominated by one player. There is a significant opportunity for another player with a complete and competitive range of products.

Since 2013 when we set our aspiration, multiple events have transpired, both internally and externally, which required us to recalibrate the specificity of our aspiration. Internally, many of our global initiatives took longer to gain traction for various reasons. While these have been a significant learning experience for the company, these set us back on our time lines for the Externally, there have been mergers and journey. acquisitions, amongst our competitors, that has changed the structure of the industry. In 2019, the number 2 and the number 3 players merged to form the new number 2 at a much higher revenue level.

These internal and external events make the original time line for the aspiration and the market position, unrealistic. But since CK2 has become such a strong rallying point within the organization, we will continue to view this as our directional guide - to be the top 3 player in the air compressor business worldwide. Since such internal and external influences will warrant periodic recalibration, we will define the sales and market position metrics in short intervals. Considering the current impact of the pandemic, we are working towards defining the medium term revenue target and the time lines for the same, and will share this along with the 2020-21 Q1 results.

Vision: While our aspiration will generate profits, the purpose of our company is not just profits. But without profits we cannot fulfill our purpose and we consider profits are a means to fulfill our purpose. Our purpose is summarized by our vision statement.

Always be the choice everywhere

Be the choice of our 6 stakeholders - customer, employee, investor, supplier, distributor and society. In pursuit of our purpose we have consciously kept each of our stakeholders' interests. We have developed various metrics to measure the effectiveness of serving our stakeholders. This is not complete and within the near term we will share this with everyone.

Strategy

The elements of our strategy are four - Right to play, Where to play, How to win and Right to win. Since the early 1990s the company has been building each element of the strategy. The starting point of the strategy was the criteria based on which customers and distributors make their buying decision. And these criteria were sharpened for a buying decision from an unknown brand with a "made in India" label. For a customer, the most important criteria are reliability of the product, low ownership cost and responsive service.

Right to play: While all of these criteria are equally relevant for all companies in the case of our company it had to be multiple notches better. We are an unknown brand with a "made in India" label. Convincing customers to buy our product and distributors to carry our product, in developed markets that are used to wellestablished multinational brands, requires us to be not just as good but far better than our competitors.

Combining these buying criteria, over the many years the company has developed world class manufacturing and quality systems, cutting edge technological capabilities and world's best warranty and service solutions. These pursuits were done in a systematic, process oriented manner adopting principles of Total Quality Management (TQM). The final recognition of this was the Deming Award in November 2019. TQM now is part of the DNA of the company.

A compressor carrying a multinational brand can fail and will be forgiven. But a failure of an ELGI compressor will not be forgiven, especially in developed markets that are used to high standards of products. Today, our defect levels are among the lowest in the industry as measured by surveys of comparative defect levels of competitors as well as our warranty cost compared to that of competition.

Our compressors carry the longest warranty period in the world. This combined with the lowest warranty cost is validation of the quality of our products.

Any mechanical device can have a failure for various reasons. Our single minded adherence to the principle of "trust your customer and distributor" enables us to be the most responsive in service to handle unforeseen failures.

Energy cost is the largest cost of ownership. Our compressors are among the highest in efficiency in the A comparison of the performance sheets market. published by the Compressed Air and Gas Institute of the US, is strong evidence of this. We continue to push the efficiency envelope with advanced technology solutions.

With high standards in all of these criteria, over the past 5 years we have clearly established that we have earned the right to play in some of the toughest markets in the world. Consistent growth in developed markets combined with repeat purchases from customers is a clear validation of this conclusion.

Where to play: There are 195 countries in the world and we do business in almost 120 countries. We cannot fulfill our aspiration by "boiling the ocean" and therefore we had to be very discriminating in making choices of countries where we would be strategically focused. Strategic focus means countries in which we would make disproportionate allocation of time, effort and finances.

Based on specific criteria of the size of the opportunity, fit of the value proposition of our products with the expectation of the market, acceptance of the brand and the availability of talent, we have chosen to focus on US + Canada, Europe, India, Indonesia, Thailand and Australia + New Zealand. These markets represent more than 50% of the global opportunity.

How to win: Building a winning formula for an extraordinary aspiration involves converting the extraordinary aspiration into ordinary tasks and

performing these ordinary tasks in an extraordinary manner. The basic framework of our TQM practice is centered on this philosophy. And this involves our people and our processes as powerful levers for realizing this philosophy.

The capability and attitude of our people combined with strong processes, enables ordinary people to perform in an extraordinary manner. On the shop floor, we are a unique company. We have an empowered set of employees who have all gone through either an abbreviated engineering diploma or our own 3-year vocational training program. We do not employ contract employees in our production activities. While processes are critical, we believe that the last mile in quality is the human being and therefore it is critical that we have knowledgeable, empowered and committed people in the production processes. Our employees are organized into Self-Managed Teams who organize their own daily work without any supervision. This is a strong enabler for the quality mindset of the company.

We are in the middle of developing a strong talent management framework that will flow into a succession plan. This will enable continuity to every critical role in the company. We have defined the competencies required for winning and we will be rolling out a development program that will enable these competencies. We have assembled together a great team with deep compressor experience in all the markets outside India.

More specifically, the how to win piece, besides embedding the right to play elements, involves specific choices in the back-end of the organization and the front-end of the organization. In the back-end, the priority was to build a world class manufacturing system that would ensure high standards of quality and delivery on time. We have done this and we will continue to enhance our performance.

In order to push the envelope on quality and efficiency, the company had to internalize knowledge and production of certain key parts. And this involves making specific choices of backward integration. Also, while our products perform to the highest standards in the market, customers, especially in internationally markets will try an unknown brand with a "made in India" label only if there is an incentive to do so and this incentive is price. In order to sustain quality and efficiency while at the same time be cost competitive, there is a need for strategic backward integration. Over the past 5 years, we have integrated backward to manufacture our own pressure vessels, castings, motors and key production machines. These have given us better control over the quality of our products, efficiency of our products, cost of our products and inventory. We have invested about ₹120 crore in these backward integration projects. These have yielded an increase in the value added internally from about 30% to 60%.

On the front-end, it is about designing programs for deepening our engagement with customers both for the sales opportunities and aftermarket delivery. In 2016 we rolled out a Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy in India that deepened our Awareness of the market opportunity, created greater Consideration from customers and ensured higher Conversion of enquiries. The result of this can be seen from our growth in specific products during a period in comparison to the Capital Goods Index of Industrial Production, during the same period.

We have rolled out similar GTM strategies in the strategic markets that we have chosen to participate in. We are confident that we will see the results in these markets as we have experienced in India.

Besides the organic GTM strategies we have over the years, grown the business inorganically through acquisitions. We have done six acquisitions in the past 8 years and except for one, all of them have enabled the company to gain the traction required in the strategic More importantly, we have gained markets. tremendous knowledge, which has been internalized, in terms of how to successfully acquire and integrate a company. During the initial years, we had a broad definition of targets that we wanted to acquire. This included compressor manufacturing companies as well as distributors. Going forward, we will focus primarily on distribution and service companies that will give us access to customers. We will also look at acquisition opportunities in product adjacencies.

By and large our acquisitions have been positive for the company. The specific challenges and lessons will be discussed while analyzing the performance of the company.

Right to win: The right to play is the price for entry into the market. As an unknown brand with a "made in India" label, we need something far more than being the best in the conventional criteria that customers use in their purchase decisions. The company is working on multiple path breaking technologies that will provide such breakthrough products that will set us apart.

One such technology relates to oil-free compressors and we have launched products embedding this technology in 2019. Currently, oil-lubricated compressors and oil-free compressors exist as two separate categories. Both in terms of product offerings and end-use applications. Oil-lubricated compressors are more efficient and less expensive than oil-free compressors. However, in applications that cannot tolerate oil in the air, customers do not have a choice but to buy oil-free compressors, and they pay the penalty of a high upfront price as well as higher running cost. Over many years we have been developing a technology that will eventually converge these two categories so that all compressors are oil-free with low upfront cost and comparable running cost.

Our newly launched AB Series of compressors are Oil-Free - Disrupted. They provide a significant value proposition to customers with payback in months compared to other products with alternative technologies.

We continue to push the technology envelope whereby there will be convergence of the AB Series with the oillubricated products. It is estimated that oil lubricated compressors emit close to 2 million liters of oil into the atmosphere every year. This development would have a significant positive impact on the environment.

Performance

Many times while focusing on discussing the immediate performance, the larger context of the journey to the immediate gets lost. We believe there are valuable lessons in looking at the longer context of time before we delve into the immediate.

1995 - 2020: Since the genesis of our current journey started in the 1990s, we decided to step back to look at the performance over a period of time and provide a diagnostic narrative so that we have context to understand the immediate. We chose to focus on some key parameters which we believe are of interest to investors. The narration is centered around the elements that need improvement - sales, people cost and capital employed. The historical analysis is limited to the period up to 2018-19 and the year 2019-20 is dealt with separately.

Sales: The diagnostic narrative starts from 2000-01 with 5-year tranches, using 1995-96 as the base case. The India focused approach of sales concentrating on the Indian market and relative weakness of the products and the value proposition to customers resulted in very poor performance during the period from 1995-96 to 2005-06 of this journey. The company grew only by about 6% per year over this period while the economy grew by 7-8% in seven out of the ten years. This was also the preparatory phase in the development of the company, in terms of its manufacturing, quality and technology capabilities.

From the period 2005-06 till 2010-11, the Indian economy grew by 7-8% annually. On the back of this economic support, the company also experienced robust growth in its industrial products, in the Indian market, by virtue of having developed a strong program of products and technologies. The company's growth levels were higher than the economic growth which helped gain market share. The company grew by 21% per year during this period. Also, during this period, the company rode the wave of its strong presence in the water well segment, which contributed close to ₹1500 million to the top line. The performance was still very India focused with the India operations contributing close to 90% of the revenue.

During the period 2010-11 to 2015-16, the Indian economy grew by 7-8% annually in two out of the five years. The company grew by only about 3% per year in the Indian market. Starting from 2012-13 onwards the company shifted its geographical orientation towards international markets. During this period there were two significant acquisitions of Rotair and Pattons. The company's attention to the Indian industrial market waned and as a consequence lost market share. Besides, the demand in the water well segment dropped significantly. This business is a cyclical business which typically experiences 3-5 years of growth following by a lull for the same period of time. While the growth in India was subdued, the international business grew by 32% per year. During this period, the company had severe challenges to the top line caused by external factors in Pattons in the form of various legal disputes, which were subsequently settled.

During the period 2015-16 to 2018-19, the Indian economy grew by 7-8% annually in two out of the four years. Realizing the waned attention to the Indian market, the company designed and executed a new Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy. As a consequence the company grew 11% per year in the Indian market primarily on the industrial segment. During the period the water well market grew but the company lost its leadership position due to neglect in developing the right products. Since then the company has developed a strong suite of products for this segment and is poised to regain its share of this market in the next 2-3 years. The international business grew by only 3% per year. The primary cause for this subdued growth compared to the previous period is the challenges we faced in recovering from the damage at Pattons to set it back on its growth path. With the help of an outside agency we developed a GTM for both Pattons and the industrial business in the US. We are also reorganizing the Pattons business to leverage the opportunities available. We are confident that these would yield positive results in the future.

In summary, there have been important learnings for the company. While we are strong in the Indian market, there are pockets of growth opportunities which the company has to focus on. The estimate of such opportunities across the product segments is anywhere between ₹2000 - ₹3000 million of additional revenue. The company has already initiated organizational and strategic changes to achieve this, even while it attempts to grow the international business.

The runway to realize the opportunities in the strategic markets outside India, was longer than what the company anticipated. The company has gained solid traction in these markets by adding close to 250 distributors and gaining repeat purchases. But to grow from any given level to the next level requires constant reconfiguration of the strategy and this takes time. Our expectations and therefore our promises of performance were based on our own experience in India. Growing the international business, during the initial years, does not happen linearly, as it happens in India. We have learnt about the various challenges that we have to face and appropriately baked the time lines so that we do not perform below promise, in the future.

We have learned to avoid the pitfalls that come with acquisitions with much stronger processes. However, acquisitions, unlike organic growth opportunities are more challenging on the financials considering the valuations. We have become very selective in our acquisition strategy and our funding structure.

Profitability: Benchmarks of peers in the industry indicate EBITDA ranging from 12% to 24%. And ROCE ranging from 18% to 35%. The numbers from our best year (2010-11) is an EBITDA of 14% and ROCE of 45%.

Contribution margins have steadily increased on the back of two dimensions. One, increased margins in the International markets and two, increased revenue from aftermarket in the Indian market. This increasing trend is expected to continue as we build the installed based in international markets and derive the aftermarket revenue from these installations.

In 2010-11, compared to 2005-06, the critical contributor to the benchmark performance on profitability was the top line. This was in spite of significant growth in people cost and other fixed costs in India. The increase in these costs, of which almost 85% was in India, laid the foundation for enabling the growth in the top line in India. People cost as a percentage of sales in India was about 9% against Indian industry peers of between 13 to 16% currently.

In the period from 2010-11 to 2015-16, the percentage of people cost to sales in India, climbed to about 12% as we invested in capabilities in India for not only the Indian market but also to serve the global markets that we had entered. It is pertinent to highlight that our India people costs also include the cost of people in the backend, which serves the global markets as well. So the domestic industry peer comparative percentages are not fully relevant. In spite of this, our costs in percentage terms were very favorable. At a consolidated level, due to the acquisition of Pattons and Rotair, people cost climbed up sharply to 18% of sales. International benchmarks in our industry for people cost on sales range from 18-24%. Our strategic markets are primarily in the developed part of the world where people costs are high. But the number of people we have is not excessive. The ratios look distorted during this period because this was a period in which we assumed the people cost in the acquired entities.

In the period from 2015-16 to 2018-19, the percentage of people cost to sales in India was 13% and at the consolidated level remained at 18%. The expectation was that the consolidated percentage would drop to around 16% but since international sales grew only by 3% per year, we did not realize this expectation. If the expected sales had been realized we would have had much better ratios and we would have moved closer towards the benchmark year 2010-11. While sales has strong traction in the strategic markets, the time taken to realize the expected levels of sales is longer than anticipated.

Capital Employed: During the period from 2000-01 till 2010-11, the capital employed rose by almost 175% with an incremental additional capital employed of Rs. 1600 Million. All of this capital was employed in India. The primary use of this capital during this period was to build our manufacturing systems, facilities and technology capabilities. These investments have served the company well and the investments returned the capital smartly, with ROCE reaching 45% in 2010-11.

During the period from 2010-11 to 2018-19, the capital employed rose by almost 200% with the incremental additional capital employed of Rs. 5500 Million. A large portion of this capital, of approximately Rs. 4000 Million went towards our new campus, backward integration into our foundry and working capital required to expand internationally and a portion of the capital went towards our acquisitions. The former portion was a necessity and strategic in nature and thus the return on this capital is taking longer. This is one more reason why the ROCE is lower during this period, besides the lower levels of profitability during this period.

Capital employed in working capital was larger than what was required and this was caused by investing on the assumption of certain growth and we did not realize this expectation. As we gain experience in terms of the time it takes to grow international markets, this capital is being calibrated and it will come under control.

19-20: The year started on an optimistic note as far as the Indian market was concerned, on the back of a very strong 2018-19. This optimism was short lived and the economy started slowing down from July onwards. There were some signs of an uptick in December which continued till February when the pandemic issue hit the market in March. As a consequence, India sales was lower by 10% compared to the previous year.

In the US, we acquired the portable business of the distributor which came with a large inventory of our own machines of more than 6 months' worth of sales. As a consequence we moderated the production in Rotair and this consequently reduced the revenue of Rotair for most of the year. This situation has normalized since. The US business grew by almost 35% during the year, including the acquisitions. There are significant opportunities to grow the Pattons business and the other distributor business and the team is working on these opportunities for the future. Australia grew by almost 15% for the year.

People cost grew by about 20% at the consolidated level, but bulk of this was costs of people from the acquisition of Michigan Air and the payroll cost of the team in Europe. Organic growth in people cost was very marginal. In India, for instance, the people cost increased by only 4%.

The increase in capital employed, compared to the previous year, was about ₹1800 Million. Of this, the largest portion of around ₹900 Million was towards termination of a dealership in the US and purchase of inventory, acquisition of Michigan Air, and earn-out payment for Pulfords in Australia. Capex was around ₹400 Million and the balance was working capital. A significant portion of the working capital has since been liquidated.

In summary, keeping the impact of Covid-19 aside, the Indian market was a disappointment. Unlike in the past, our focus on this market did not waver and in fact we believe that we have gained some share in the market for industrial products. The international markets grew well through a combination of both organic and inorganic means. People cost will not continue to rise as before since we have built the complete teams to a large extent in most of the strategic markets.

We expect to see a sharp drop in capital employed as we have initiated multiple steps to reduce the working capital. Our capex for the foreseeable future would be marginal and only to the extent to which we have already part paid in the earlier years.

If the Indian economy supports, we are confident that we will quickly move our ratios to the benchmark year of 2010-11. Considering the current uncertainty, we are reluctant to spell out the period by which we can achieve the levels. As promised, we will come back with more coherent statements when we publish the results for Q1 of 2020-21.

Conservation of energy, technology absorption And foreign exchange earning and outgo

(Section 134 (3) (m) of The Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 8(3) of The Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014)

A. Conservation of Energy

I Steps taken for conservation of energy:

Internet of Things (IoT) based energy monitoring system is introduced for all machines and utilities at Air Compressor Plant (ACP), which consumes 39.54% of the total energy consumption of the company. IoT based energy management system provides the remote monitoring of energy usage, energy demand and energy consumption across the plant. Energy data captured digitally through IoT can be accessed in web pages as well as in Mobile phones. With the energy data, the opportunities are identified through a systematic approach in energy analysis, thereby controlling and optimizing the energy consumption and energy demand.

IoT based energy management system enables the energy saving mode automatically in CNC machines by sensing the base load and variable load. Energy saving mode in a CNC machine is triggered to shut-off the drive control system of the machine automatically when there is a unplanned delay in the manufacturing process due to loading and unloading the components into the machines or machine idle time due to setting etc. Significant contribution in optimizing the energy consumption in machine shops is achieved by horizontally deploying this system for all the CNC machines and SPM machines (120 machines).

IoT based energy management system provides the automated energy readings with the desired frequency intervals like hourly, daily, monthly and yearly data of past and present. Real time monitoring of energy readings enables the optimization in energy demand and consumption. Daily consumption reports are generated and communicated to the end-user through E-mail automatically for monitoring their energy use area. SMS alert is also enabled by setting the energy targets.

The various energy management programs (EnMPs) are executed by identifying the gaps and opportunities using the systematic approach energy analysis. Programmable timers are introduced in the utilities like lighting, Air handling units, Air-conditioner units and Chiller units to switch off the power when there are no utilization of these facilities. Air compressor capacity is optimized by studying the compressed Air requirements. Energy efficient fans are installed in the office areas. Automatic operation of switchgear is executed in substation which in turn eliminating the human involvement for operation. There is a future scope in optimizing the energy by replacing the higher

capacity motors with energy efficient motors, which is under processing this year. A systematic analysis of energy consumption data provides the optimization not only in energy consumption and also in energy demand. Energy demand reduction process is initiated in this financial year 2020-21.

Carbon emission reduction is also an integral part of the energy objectives in the company. IoT based energy management system provides the carbon emission reduction to 7% as compared to previous year. HSD consumption is reduced by synchronizing the 750 KVA DG set with other DG sets and optimizes the captive generation power cost by improving the cooler efficiency, thereby eliminating the 320 KVA DG Set.

Air compressor plant (ACP) was certified with ISO 50001:2011 Energy management system in the year 2017. Now this certificate is upgraded to ISO 50001:2018 standards.

Energy baseline (EnB) is established for each Significant Energy Use areas (SEU) for comparing the energy performance of the year. IoT based energy management system has reduced the power cost for Airend manufacturing by 7%, i.e. specific energy consumption per airend equivalent is reduced from 410 kWh to 360 kWh. Net energy cost saving of INR 3.0 Mn. Power to Sale ratio has been reduced from 16% to 10%.

II Steps taken by the Company for utilizing alternate sources of energy:

At present, the company's wind mill generators contribute 15% of the total energy requirements

III Capital investment on energy conservation equipment

₹15.00 Lakhs were spent during the year for modifying the existing system

B. Technology Absorption:

Efforts made towards technology absorption

  • · Installation of a switch less human interface for control panels -capacitive touch interface
  • · Introduced a dynamic password for secured interface with compressor controller

Benefits derived like product improvement, cost reduction, product development or import substitution

  • · Designed and developed an energy efficient oil flooded version of EG55 compressor models for all countries
  • · Designed and developed an energy efficient oil flooded version from EG11, EG15, EG18, EG22, EG26, EG30, EG37, and EG45 for Canada region.
  • · Designed and developed an energy efficient oil flooded water cooled compressor EG250 models for all countries
  • · Designed and developed an cost efficient and energy efficient oil flooded version of compressor from EV11, EV15, EV18, and EV22 for India market and can be extended to other markets.
  • · Designed and developed an outdoor protection kit for snow and dusty environmental condition for oil ?ooded compressor packages.
  • · Designed and developed an Air cooled version of oil free compressor version of compressor from OF90, OF110, OF135, OF145 & OF170kW for Indian, USA and European markets
  • · Designed and developed an oil free disrupted version of compressor from 30 to 45kW and 55 to 110kW for Indian and European markets
  • · Designed and developed an electric portable version of compressor of PG37E, PG45E & PG90E trolley for C&M applications.
  • . Designed and developed TS 15 LD12 industrial reciprocating direct drive compressor with enhanced performance.

· Several other projects meeting global requirements are at the verge of completion and will be effective from first to second quarter in the coming year.

sources during 2019-20 were examined but not pursued due to lack of proof. Each and every complaint was addressed on time satisfactorily.

Principle 2: Businesses should provide goods and services that are safe and contribute to sustainability throughout their life cycle.

  1. List up to 3 of your products or services whose design has incorporated social or environmental concerns, risks and / or opportunities.

3% energy efficiency has been achieved in compressors through design improvement. We have also expanded the range of oil free compressors

We have developed OFD compressors which potentially will replace traditional oil free compressors with a signi?cant Improvement in efficiency and initial cost. This product meets the requirement of sensitive applications like pharmaceuticals, food and beverages and electronics.

Developed motors indigenously with an improvement in efficiency and lower cost.

  1. For each such product, provide the following details in respect of resource use (energy, water, raw material etc.) per unit of product(optional):

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Members of Elgi Equipments Limited

Report on the audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Opinion

    1. We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Elgi Equipments Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as at March 31, 2020, the statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information in which are included the financial information of two joint operations.
    1. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2020, and total comprehensive income (comprising of profit and other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year then ended.

Basis for opinion

  1. 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 Standalone 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 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 we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in sub-paragraph 14 of the Other Matter paragraph below is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

4 We draw your attention to Note 53 to the standalone financial statements which explains the management's assessment of the financial impact due to the lockdowns and other restrictions and conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, for which a definitive assessment of the impact in the subsequent period is highly dependent on the circumstances as they evolve.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key audit matters

  1. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Roll back of physical count of inventory performed
subsequent to year end
In response to the matter, we carried out the following
procedures:
The Company has Inventory of Rs.1,302.01 million as on
March 31, 2020 (Refer Note 11 to the standalone financial
statements) and is material to the standalone financial
statements.
. We obtained an understanding on the design processes

annual inventory count and the roll back procedures.
The Company conducted its annual inventory physical

the sales/issues to production and deducting the
purchases/production made during the period from the end of
the financial year till the date of actual verification of
inventory, from the quantities counted.
Management's reports and procedures over the roll back
of inventory from the date of physical verification back to
March 31, 2020 were tested on a sample basis through
inspection of purchase, production and sales records.
Considering the magnitude of the inventory balances, the
multiple warehouses and plants at which the inventory is
located, we considered the timing of physical verification of
inventories and the roll back procedures performed by the
company as a key audit matter.
Based on our procedures performed, the annual physical
verification performed subsequent to year end and the roll
back of physical count of inventory was considered to be
reasonable.
Assessment of carrying value of investment in Our audit procedures included the following:
subsidiaries and joint ventures
As at March 31, 2020, the Company has equity investments of
Rs.1,687.02 million in its subsidiaries and joint ventures
(Refer Note 6 to the standalone financial statements).
. Understood and performed procedures to assess the
design and tested the operating effectiveness of relevant
controls related to the annual evaluation on assessment

significance to the standalone financial statements, and
where applicable, the judgement involved in estimating
future cash flows, particularly with respect to factors such as
discount rates, cash flow projections and terminal growth
rates.
. In relation to a subsidiary where future cash flow
projections were prepared, evaluated the reasonableness
of these projections by, discussing with the management,
understanding the assumptions involved, and our
knowledge and understanding of current business
conditions. Evaluated, along with the auditor's experts,
the key assumptions such as discount rate and growth
rate used in the assessment.

standalone financial statements.

Other Information

6 The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board report and Report on Corporate Governance, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed and the reports of the other auditors as furnished to us (Refer paragraph 14 below), we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the standalone financial statements

  1. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the

accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

  1. In preparing the standalone financial statements, management 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 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 standalone financial statements

  1. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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 standalone financial statements.

    1. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
  • · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • · 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 with reference to 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 management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use ٠ 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 standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our 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 standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the Company and its joint operations to express an opinion on the Standalone financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of the Company of which we are the independent auditors. For the joint operations included in the standalone financial statements, which have been audited by 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.

    1. 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.
    1. 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.
    1. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when. in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Other Matter

  1. We did not audit the financial statements of two joint operations included in the standalone financial statements of the Company, which constitute Company's share of total assets of Rs.127.45 million and net assets of Rs.124.28 million as at March 31, 2020, total revenue of Rs.Nil, total comprehensive income (comprising of profit and other comprehensive income) of Rs.0.70 million and net cash flow inflows amounting to Rs.0.86 million for the year then ended. These financial statements and other financial information have been audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion on the standalone financial statements (including other information) to the extent they have been derived from such financial statements is based solely on the report of such other auditors.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matter.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

As required by the Companies (Auditor's Report) Order, 2016 ("the Order"), issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Act, we give in the Annexure B a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

Annexure A to Independent Auditors' Report

Referred to in paragraph 16(f) of the Independent Auditors' Report of even date to the members of Elgi Equipments Limited on the Standalone Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2020.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Act

  1. We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of Elgi Equipments Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2020 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

$\overline{2}$ 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 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 Act.

Auditors' Responsibility

  • Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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") and the Standards on Auditing deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal financial controls and both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
    1. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to financial

statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

  1. 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 with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

  1. A company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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 management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised 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 with reference to financial statements

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

Opinion

  1. In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and such Internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31,

2020, 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. Also Refer paragraph 4 of the main audit report.

Referred to in paragraph 15 of the Independent Auditors' Report of even date to the members of Elgi Equipments Limited on the Standalone Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2020

$\mathbf{L}$ (a) The Company is maintaining proper records showing full particulars, including quantitative details and situation, of fixed assets.

(b)The fixed assets are physically verified by the Management according to a phased programme designed to cover all the items over a period of three years which, in our opinion, is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and the nature of its assets. Pursuant to the programme, a portion of the fixed assets has been physically verified by the Management during the year and no material discrepancies have been noticed on such verification.

(c)The title deeds of immovable properties, as disclosed in Note 3(a) and 4 on Property Plant and Equipment and Investment Property respectively to the financial statements, are held in the name of the Company.

  • ii. The physical verification of inventory excluding stocks with third parties have been conducted at reasonable intervals by the Management during the year (annual verification post the year end consequent to COVID-19 lock down). In respect of inventory lying with third parties, these have substantially been confirmed by them. The discrepancies noticed on physical verification of inventory as compared to book records were not material. Our attendance at the physical inventory verification carried out by the management was impracticable under the current lock-down restrictions imposed by the government on account of COVID-19 and we have therefore, relied on the related alternate audit procedures to obtain comfort over the existence and condition of inventory at year end.
  • iii. The Company has granted unsecured loans, to five companies covered in the register maintained under Section 189 of the Act.

(a) In respect of the aforesaid loans, the terms and conditions under which such loans were granted are not prejudicial to the Company's interest.

In respect of loans to other two companies, loans and interest are repayable on demand. The Company has not demanded the repayment of the said loans and

hence there does not arise a situation for commenting on the regularity of repayment of principal and payment of interest.

(c)In respect of the aforesaid loans, there is no amount which is overdue for more than ninety days.

  • iv. In our opinion, and according to the information and explanations given to us, the Company has complied with the provisions of Section 185 and 186 of the Companies Act, 2013 in respect of the loans and investments made, and guarantees and security provided by it.

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

General Information

Elgi Equipments Limited ("the Company") is engaged in manufacturing of air compressors. The Company has manufacturing plants in different locations in India and has its registered office in Coimbatore. The Company is a public limited company and listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange.

1 Significant accounting policies

This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these standalone financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

(a) Basis of preparation

(i) Compliance with Ind AS

The standalone financial statements comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) [Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015] and other relevant provisions of the Act. This financial statement has been approved by the Board of Directors in their meeting held on June 29, 2020.

(ii) Historical cost convention

The financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following:

a) certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) that are measured at fair value:

b) defined benefit plans - plan assets measured at fair value and

c) share based payments.

(iii) New and amended standards adopted by the Company

The Company has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time in their annual reporting period commencing April 01, 2019.

  1. Ind AS 116, Leases. Refer note 1(h) read along with note 46.

  2. Appendix C, 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments', to Ind AS 12, Income Taxes.

  3. Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement -Amendments to Ind AS 19, Employee Benefits.

  4. Income tax consequences of payments on financial instruments classified as equity, to Ind AS 12, Income Taxes.

  5. Borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation as per Ind AS 23, Borrowing Cost.

  6. Amendments to Ind AS 103, Business Combinations and Ind AS 111, Joint Arrangements.

The Company had to change its accounting policies and make certain adjustments following the adoption of Ind AS 116. This is disclosed in note 46. Most of the other amendments listed above did not have any impact on the amounts recognised in prior periods and are not expected to significantly affect the current or future periods.

(b) Accounting for Joint Operations

The Company recognises its direct right to the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations and its share of any jointly held or incurred assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These have been incorporated in the financial statements under the appropriate headings. Details of the joint operations are set out in note 51.

(c) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Managing Director (MD) of the company has been identified as the chief operating decision maker of the Company. He assesses the financial performance and position of the Company, and makes strategic decisions. The business activities of the Company comprise of manufacturing and sale of compressors. Accordingly, there is no other reportable segment as per Ind AS 108 Operating Segments.

(d) Foreign currency translation

(i) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates ('the functional currency'). The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss. A monetary item for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseable future is considered as a part of the entity's net investment in that foreign operation.

Foreign exchange differences regarded as an adjustments to borrowing costs are presented in the statement of profit and loss, within finance costs. All other foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the statement of profit and loss on a net basis within other gains/(losses).

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as a part of the fair value gain or loss.

(e) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised goods or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the goods or service in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. For each contract with a customer, the company applies the below five step process before revenue can be recognised:

  • identify contracts with customers
  • identify the separate performance obligation
  • determine the transaction price of the Contract
  • allocate the transaction price to each of the separate performance obligations and

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

  • recognise the revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

(I) Sale of products: The Company manufactures and sells a range of air compressors and related parts. Sales are recognised when control of the product is transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customers, and there is no unfulfilled obligations that could effect the customer's acceptance of products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped from the Company's warehouse to the specific location in case of domestic sales, and when a bill of lading is generated in case of exports, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and either the customer has accepted the product in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provision has lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied. Where the company sells goods and also has transportation obligation, and where the control of the goods get transferred, the sale of goods and transportation is treated as separate performance obligation.

The Company's obligation to repair/replace faulty product under the standard warranty terms is recognised as a provision. Refer note 25.

A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due. The credit facility is as per standard industry terms, thus there is no significant financing component.

(ii) Sale of Services: The performance obligation under service contract are installation, maintenance and other ancillary services set forth in the contracts. Revenue from rendering of services are recognised over a period of time by reference to the stage of completion as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit provided by the Company's performance as the Company performs. In case of transportation revenue, the Company recovers actual cost of transportation from the customers. The cost is either billed separately in the invoice or included in the total transaction price. Where the transaction price is inclusive of cost of transportation, the Company splits the transaction price into Sale of product and Sale of services. Payment for the service rendered is made as per the credit terms in the agreements with the customers. The credit period is generally short term, thus there is no significant financing component.

(III) Duty drawback : Income from duty drawback is recognised on an accrual basis.

(iv) Royalty : Royalty is recognised on accrual basis in accordance with terms of respective agreements.

(f) Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Company will comply with all the attached conditions.

Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.

Government grants relating to purchase of property, plant

and equipment are presented by deducting the grant from carrying amount of the asset.

(g) Income taxes

The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.

Current tax liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities, using the tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the standalone financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive Income or directly in equity, respectively.

(h) Leases

As explained in Note 1(a)(iii) point no-1, the Company has changed its accounting policy for leases, where the Company is the lessee. The effects of change in accounting policy is described in note 46.

Till March 31, 2019:

As a lessee

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Company, as a lessee, has substantially all the risks and

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease's inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in borrowings or other financial liabilities as appropriate. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor's expected inflationary cost increases.

As a lessor

Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary cost increases. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.

With effective from April 01, 2019:

As a lessee

From April 01, 2019, leases are recognised as right of use assets with corresponding liabilities at the date at which the leased assets are available for use by the Company. Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Company allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However for leases of real estate for which the Company is the lessee, it has elected not to separate the lease and non-lease components and instead account for these as single lease component.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

  • · fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
  • · variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
  • amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees
  • . the exercise price of a purchase option, if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and
  • · payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.

Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the Interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:

  • · where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
  • · uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by the Company which does not have recent third party financing, and
  • · makes adjustments specific to the lease, such as term, country, currency and security.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

  • . the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
  • · any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
  • · any initial direct costs and
  • · restoration costs

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life.

Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.

As a lessor

Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary cost increases. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.

The Company did not need to make any adjustments to the accounting for the assets held as lessor as a result of adopting the new standard.

(i) Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses and results in the consolidation of the assets and liabilities acquired. Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method.

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisition-

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

date fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree. Deferred consideration payable is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. At each reporting date subsequent to the acquisition, contingent consideration payable is measured at its fair value with any changes in the fair value recognised in profit or loss unless the contingent consideration is classified as equity, in which case the contingent consideration is carried at its acquisition-date fair value.

Goodwill is recognised initially at the excess of: (a) the aggregate of the consideration transferred, over (b) the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

(j) Impairment of assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets (including investments) are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Cash Flow Statement: The Cash flow from Operating activities are prepared under the Indirect method, whereby profit or loss 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 expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.

(I) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment, if any.

(m) Inventories

Raw materials and stores, work in progress, traded and finished goods

Raw materials and stores, work in progress, traded and

finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of raw materials and traded goods comprises cost of purchases. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of first-in firstout basis. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(n) Investments and other financial assets

(I) Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

  • a) those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or through profit or loss) and
  • b) those measured at amortised cost.

The classification depends on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held. For investments in equity instruments, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

(II) Measurement

At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company's business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:

a) Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses). Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss.

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

b) Fair value through other comprehensive income

(FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other income/ (expense). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other Income using the effective interest rate method.

c) Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss within other income/ (expense) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.

Equity Instruments

The Company measures all equity investments at fair value, except for investments forming part of interest in subsidiaries and joint ventures, which are measured at cost. Where the Company's management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. Dividends from such investments are recognised in profit or loss as other income when the Company's right to receive payments is established.

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in other income/ (expense) in the statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.

Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI debt instruments. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Note 38 details how the Company determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset is derecognised only when

a) The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or

b) The Company retains the contractual rights to receive

the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.

Where the Company has transferred an asset, it evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the Company has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.

Where the Company has neither transferred a financial asset nor retained substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.

Income recognition

a) Interest income

Interest income on financial assets at amortised cost calculated using the effective interest rate method is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as part of other income.

Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of financial assets except for financial assets that subsequently become credit impaired. For credit-impaired financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of loss allowance).

b) Dividends

Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.

(o) Derivatives

Derivatives are only used for economic hedging purposes and not as speculative investment. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged and the type of hedge relationship designated.

Derivatives that are not designated as hedges :

The Company enters into certain derivative contracts to hedge risks which are not designated as hedges. Such contracts are accounted for at fair value through profit or loss and are included in other income / (expense).

(p) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.

(q) Property, plant and equipment

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation methods, estimated useful lives and residual value

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line and written down value methods to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives.

The useful lives have been determined based on Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except roads (classified as buildings), tools, jigs and fixtures, patterns and mould and dies (classified as plant and machinery), where useful lives have been determined based on technical evaluation done by the management's expert which are higher than those specified by Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, in order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset.

Useful Life (years)
Asset As adopted by As per
company Schedule II
Roads 10
Tools, Jigs & Fixtures, $5 - 8$ 15

Patterns, Moulds & Dies

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other income / (expense).

(r) Investment properties

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 initially at its cost, including related

transaction costs. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

Investment properties (other than land) are depreciated using the written down value method over their estimated useful lives. Investment properties have a useful life of 30 years. The useful lives have been determined based on Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

(s) Intangible assets

(i) Goodwill

Goodwill on acquisition of business is included in Intangible assets. Goodwill is not amortised but tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in the circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of a business include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the business sold.

Goodwill is allocated to cash generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to cash generating unit which is expected to benefit from business combination in which the goodwill arose.

(ii) Other intangible assets

The intangible assets include computer software and drawings which are recorded at the cost of acquisition and are amortised using the straight-line method over a period of five years or their legal / useful life whichever is less.

(t) Research and development

Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique products controlled by the Company are recognised as intangible assets when the following criteria are met:

  • -it is technically feasible to complete the asset so that it will be available for use
  • -management intends to complete the asset and use or sell it
  • -there is an ability to use or sell the product -it can be demonstrated how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits
  • -adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset are available and
  • -the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development can be reliably measured

Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the products include employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

Capitalised development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which the asset is available for use.

Research and development expenditure that do not meet the criteria for recognition as intangible assets are

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in the subsequent period.

(u) Trade and other Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the company prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

(v) Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other income/other expenses.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision of a longterm loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.

(w) Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings, pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

(x) Provisions

Provisions for legal claims, service warranties, volume discounts and returns are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

(y) Employee Benefits

(i) Short-term obligations

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as other financial liabilities in the balance sheet.

(ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations

The liabilities for earned leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.

The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.

(iii) Post-employment obligations

The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:

  • (a) defined benefit plans such as gratuity and
  • (b) defined contribution plans such as provident fund and Superannuation fund.

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

Gratuity obligations:

The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.

The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.

Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

Defined contribution plans:

The Company pays provident fund and superannuation fund contributions to Employee Provident Fund Account as per Employees Provident Fund Act, 1952 and Life Insurance Corporation of India, respectively. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.

(iv) Bonus plans

The Company recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses. The Company recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

(v) Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Company recognises termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the Company recognises costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of Ind AS 37 and involves the payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to present value.

(vi) Share based payments

Share based compensation benefits are provided to the employees via Elgi Equipments Limited Employees Stock Option Plan, 2019, an employee stock option scheme.

The fair value of options granted under the Elgi Equipments Limited Employee Stock Option Plan, 2019 is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in the equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted,

  • including any market performance conditions (e.g. the entity's share price)
  • -excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (e.g. profitability, sales growth targets and remaining of an employee of the entity over a specified time period) and
  • -including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (e.g. the requirement for employees to hold the shares for a specific period of time).

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

(z) Contributed Equity

Equity shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(aa) Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period.

(ab) Insurance Claims

Insurance claims are accounted for on the basis of claims admitted / expected to be admitted and to the extent that the amount recoverable can be measured reliably and it is reasonable to expect ultimate collection.

(ac) Earnings Per Share

(i) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:

  • a) the profit attributable to owners of the Company
  • b) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares (note 47).

(ii) Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

  • a) the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
  • b) the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

(ad) Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest millions as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

2 Critical estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a

higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.

The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:

Estimation of defined benefit obligation - Note 25(a)

Estimation of provision for warranty claims - Note 25

Estimation of current tax expense and payable - Note 36

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

(i) Information about individual provisions and significant estimates

Provision for Warranty

Provision is made for estimated warranty claims in respect of products sold which are still under warranty at the end of the reporting period. These claims are expected to be settled in the next financial year and therefore the time value of money not being material, no adjustment has been warranted. Management estimates the provision based on historical warranty claim information and any recent trends that may suggest future claims could differ from historical amounts.

(ii) Movements in provisions

Movements in each class of provision during the financial year are set out below:

Particulars Provision for
warranty
As at April 1, 2019 91.01
Additional provisions recognised 86.91
Amounts used during the year (91.01)
As at March 31, 2020 86.91

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

25(a) Employee benefit obligations

The leave obligations cover the Company's liability for earned leave.

The total provision for compensated absences amounts to ₹89.90 million and ₹80.97 million for March 31, 2020 & March 31, 2019, respectively.

The provision amount of ₹ 31.06 million (March 31, 2019: ₹ 46.72 million) is presented as current since the company expects to settle the full amount of current leave obligation in the next 12 months.

(ii) Defined contribution plans

Provident Fund:

The Company also has certain defined contribution plans. Contributions are made to provident fund in India for employees at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. The contributions are made to registered provident fund administered by the government. The obligation of the Company is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation.

Superannuation Fund:

The company contributes a percentage of eligible employees salary towards superannuation fund administered by Elgi Equipments Superannuation Fund and managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India.

The expense recognised during the period towards defined contribution plan is $\bar{x}$ 85.25 million (March 31, 2019 -₹ 79.12 million).

(iii) Post-employment benefit obligations - Gratuity

The company provides for gratuity for employees in India as per the payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Employees who are in continuous service for a period of 5 years are eligible for gratuity. The amount of Gratuity payable on retirement / termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service. The gratuity is a funded plan and the company makes contribution to recognised fund in India. The Company does not fully fund the liability and maintains a target level of funding to be maintained over a period of time based on estimations of expected gratuity payments.

Fair value of plan assets 247.04 237.35

(iv) Post-employment benefits

The significant actuarial assumptions were as follows:

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Discount Rate 6.80% 7.60%
Rate of increase in compensation levels 6.50% 7.75%
Attrition Rate 6.00% 4.50%

(v) Sensitivity analysis

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
A. Discount rate + 50 BP 7.30% 8.10%
Defined benefit obligation [PVO] 260.22 239.06
B. Discount rate - 50 BP 6.30% 7.10%
Defined benefit obligation [PVO] 277.69 257.39
C. Salary escalation rate +50 BP 7.00% 8.25%
Defined benefit obligation [PVO] 276.45 256.19
D. Salary escalation rate -50 BP 6.00% 7.25%
Defined benefit obligation [PVO] 261.31 240.09

The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

ELGI EQUIPMENTS LIMITED

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020 (All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period. (v) Major Category of Plan Assets as a % of total Plan Assets

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Funds managed by LIC of India 100.00% 100.00%

The expected rate of return on assets is determined based on the assessment made at the beginning of the year on the return expected on its existing portfolio, along with the estimated increment to the plan assets and expected yield on the respective assets in the portfolio during the year.

(vi) Risk exposure

The Company operates the Gratuity Plan through Eigi Equipments Gratuity Fund, which invests in Life Insurance Corporation of India.

Asset Volatility: A large portion of the investment made by the LIC is in government bonds and securities and other approved securities. Hence, the Company is not exposed to the risk of asset volatility as at the balance sheet date.

Changes in bond yield: A decrease in bond yield will increase plan liabilities, although this will be partially offset by an increase in value of plan's bond holdings.

Inflation Risk: In the pension plans, the pensions in the payment are not linked to inflation, so this is a less material risk.

(vii) Defined benefit liability and employer contributions

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 9.48 years (March 31, 2019 - 11.24 years). The following payments are expected contribution to defined benefit obligation in the future years.

The equity securities which are not held for trading, and for which the Company has made an irrecovable election at initial recognition to recognise changes in fair value through OCI rather than profit or loss as these are strategic investments and the Company considers this to be more relevant.

(i) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This consists of listed equity instruments, that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for deposits included in level 3.

There are no transfers between levels 1, level 2 and level 3 during the year.

The Company's policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

-the use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments

-the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date

-the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, trade payables, cash and bank balances, deposits with financial institutions, current loans to subsidiaries, borrowings and other current financial liabilities and financial assets are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature.

The fair values for non-current loan to subsidiaries, loans to employees were calculated based on cash flows discounted using a current lending rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs including counterparty credit risk. The security deposits are payable on demand and hence their carrying amount is considered as fair value.

For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

The Company's risk management is carried out by a central treasury department under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Company's treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the company's operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, contractual cash flows from debt instruments carried at amortised cost, favourable derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers including outstanding receivables.

(i) Credit risk management

For banks and financial institutions, only high rated banks/institutions are accepted.

The Company assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal and external ratings in accordance with the limits set by the Company. The finance function consists of a separate team who assess and maintain an internal credit rating system. The compliance with the credit limits by customers is regularly monitored by the finance function.

The Company's debt investments are considered to be low risk investments. The credit ratings of the investments are monitored for credit deterioration.

(ii) Security

For some trade receivables, the Company may obtain security in the form of guarantees, deeds of undertaking or letter of credit, which can be called upon if counter party is in default under the terms of the agreement. However, the Company has not obtained any such securities for its trade receivables outstanding at the reporting date.

(iii) Impairment of financial assets

The Company assigns the following internal credit ratings to each class of financial assets based on the assumptions, inputs and factors specific to the class of the financial asset. The Company provides for expected credit loss based on the following:

Internal Category Description of Basis for recognition of
expected credit loss provision
rating category Investments Loans and
deposits

or failing to engage in a

company. Where loans or
receivables have been written

engage in enforcement activity
to attempt to recover the
receivable due. Where
recoveries are made, these are
recognised in profit or loss.
Asset is written off

For the years ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019

(a) Expected credit loss for loans, security deposits and investments

The estimated gross carrying amount at default is ₹ 559.41 million (March 31, 2019: ₹ 559.41 million) for Investments and loans and deposits. There is no expected credit loss recognised for the year ended March 31, 2020 (March 31, 2019:₹ 35.62 million).

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020 (All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(b) Expected credit loss for trade receivables under simplified approach

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company based on the Company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an on an internal credit rating system. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and assessed for its recoverability.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 12. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers has sufficient capacity to meet the obligations and the risk of default is negligible.

(iv) Reconciliation of loss allowance provision - Trade receivables

Loss allowance on April 1, 2018 9.01
Changes in loss allowance 1.88
Loss allowance on March 31, 2019 10.89
Changes in loss allowance 24.15
Loss allowance on March 31, 2020 35.04

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Financing arrangements

The company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Floating rate
Expiring within one year (including other facilities) 1,887.50 2,813.19

The credit facility sanctioned by the banks are subject to renewal, every year.

Subject to the continuance of satisfactory credit ratings, the bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time in INR and can be renewed for further period of 1 year.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for:

a) all non-derivative financial liabilities, and

b) net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

(C) Market risk

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the USD, EUR and AUD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company's functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows.

* amount in bracket represents losses

(ii) Price risk

The Company's exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the Company and classified in the balance sheet as fair value through OCI.

To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Company.

Sensitivity

The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the index on the Company's equity and total comprehensive income for the period. The analysis is based on the assumption that the equity index had increased by 5% or decreased by 5% with all other variables held constant, and that all the Company's equity instruments moved in line with the index.

Impact on other components of equity
Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
NSE Nifty 50 - Increase 5% 2.44 3.74
NSE Nifty 50 - decrease 5% (2.44) (3.74)

Other components of equity would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as fair value though other comprehensive income.

39 Capital management

(a) Risk management

The company's objectives when managing capital are to

53 Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic:

The spread of COVID-19 has severely impacted businesses around the globe. In many countries, including India, there has been severe disruptions to regular business operations due to lock-downs, disruption in transportation, supply chain, travel bans, quarantines, social distancing and other emergency measures. The Company is in the business of manufacturing and selling a range of air compressors and its related parts to its customers having industrial applications in segment of food & beverages, oil & gas, manufacturing, medical, mining & construction and power generation business. The segments which are engaged in manufacturing and supply of products/services which are identified as essentials are not/less impacted compared to other segments. The Company is trying to ensure the continuity of supplies and support to these customers while the lock down is being slowly lifted across the country.

However, the uncertainty caused by the current situation has resulted in delays in the confirmation of customer orders and in executing the orders in hand and increase in lead times in sourcing components. The situation is likely to continue for next two quarters based on the current assessment. With lockdown restrictions easing out in phases, the Company is now seeing a slow improvement in inflows of customer orders and the pace of recovery is being closely monitored.

The spread of COVID-19 has severely impacted businesses around the globe. In many countries, including India, there has been severe disruptions to regular business operations due to lock-downs, disruption in transportation, supply chain, travel bans, quarantines, social distancing and other emergency measures.

However, the uncertainty caused by the current situation has resulted in delays in the confirmation of customer orders and in executing the orders in hand and increase in lead times in sourcing components. The situation is likely to continue for next two quarters based on the current assessment. With lockdown restrictions easing out in phases, the Company is now seeing a slow improvement in inflows of customer orders and the pace of recovery is being closely monitored.

The company is actively monitoring the sales performance across its geographies and taking necessary actions to contain costs to reduce the impact of revenue compression from COVID-19. While the profitability for the first quarter of 2020-21 would be impacted due to this, the exact profitability would be measured and reported as part of the quarterly results to be declared by the company for the first quarter.

Since the Company's customers and dealers delayed their payments, the Company in turn actively negotiated for credit period extension from its suppliers. The Company has made detailed assessment of its liquidity position for the next one year

Other Information

  • The Holding Company's Board of Directors is 9. responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report and Report on Corporate Governance, but does not include the consolidated financial statements, standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
    1. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
    1. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed and the reports of the other auditors as furnished to us (Refer paragraphs 20 and 21), we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

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

  1. The Holding Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these consolidated financial statements in terms of the requirements of the Act that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows, and changes in equity of the Group and its joint operations and joint ventures in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint ventures are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group and of its joint ventures 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 the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring 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, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the consolidated financial statements by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.

  2. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint ventures are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group and of its joint ventures to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do SO.

  3. The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint ventures are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and of its joint ventures.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

    1. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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 consolidated financial statements.
    1. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
  • · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • · 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 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 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, its joint operations and joint

ventures 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 consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group, its joint operations and joint ventures to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and ¥. content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence $\cdot$ regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group, its joint operations and joint ventures to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by 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.
    1. We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
    1. 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.
    1. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the

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.

Annexure A to the Independent Auditors' Report

Referred to in paragraph 23 (f) of the Independent Auditors' Report of even date to the members of Elgi Equipments Limited on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2020 Report on the Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act')

In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated 1. financial statements of Elgi Equipments Limited (hereinafter referred to as "the Holding Company") as of and for the year ended March 31, 2020, we have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of the Holding Company, its subsidiary companies and a joint venture company, which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

$\overline{2}$ The respective Board of Directors of the Holding company, its subsidiary companies and joint venture company, to whom reporting under clause (i) of sub section 3 of Section 143 of the Act in respect of the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is applicable, which are companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on 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 respective 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 Act.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 3. Company's internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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 ICAI and the Standards on Auditing deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

    1. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
    1. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company's internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

A company's internal financial control with 6. reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control with reference to financial statements 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 management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised 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 with reference to financial statements

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

Opinion

  1. In our opinion, the Holding Company, its subsidiary companies and its joint venture company, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2020, 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. Also refer paragraph 4 of the main audit report.

Other Matters

Our aforesaid reports under Section 143(3)(i) of 9. the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements insofar as it relates to two subsidiary companies and one joint venture company, which are companies incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding reports of the auditors of such companies incorporated in India. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the group.

The group combines the financial statements of the parent and its subsidiaries line by line adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group.

(ii) Joint arrangements

Under Ind AS 111 Joint Arrangements, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures. The classification depends on the contractual rights and obligations of each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. Elgi Equipments Limited has both joint operations and joint ventures.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

Joint operations

The group recognises its direct right to the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of joint operations and its share of any jointly held or incurred assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

Joint ventures

Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method (see (iii) below), after initially being recognised at cost in the consolidated balance sheet.

(iii) Equity method

Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the group's share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit and loss, and the group's share of other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from associates and joint ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.

When the group's share of losses in an equity-accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity.

Unrealised gains on transactions between the group and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the group's interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group.

The carrying amount of equity accounted investments are tested for impairment in accordance with the policy described in note 1(j) below.

(d) Foreign currency translation

(I) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of the group's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ('the functional currency'). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is the Elgi Equipment Limited's functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in profit or loss. A monetary

item for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future is considered as a part of the entity's net investment in that foreign operation.

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as a part of the fair value gain or loss. For example, translation differences on non-monetary assets and liabilities such as equity instruments held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss account as a part of fair value gain or loss and translation differences on non-monetary assets such as equity investments classified as at FVOCI are recognised in other comprehensive income.

(III) Group companies

The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows :

  • assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet

  • Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions), and

  • all resulting foreign exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

On Consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of any net investment in foreign entities, and of borrowings and other financial instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are recognised in other comprehensive income.

When a foreign operation is sold, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to profit or loss as a part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate.

The results and financial position of foreign operation which have a functional currency similar to the group are translated using the same principle enumerated in Note (d)(ii) above.

(e) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised goods or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the goods or service in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. For each contract with a customer, the group

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

applies the below five step process before revenue can be recognised:

  • identify contracts with customers
  • identify the separate performance obligation
  • determine the transaction price of the Contract

  • allocate the transaction price to each of the separate performance obligations, and

  • recognise the revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

(i) Sale of products:

The group manufactures and sells a range of air compressors, automotive equipments and related parts. Sales are recognised when control of the product has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customers, and there is no unfulfilled obligations that could effect the customer's acceptance of products. Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped from the warehouse to the specific location in case of domestic sales and when a bill of lading is generated in case of exports, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and either the customer has accepted the product in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provision has lapsed or the group has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied. Where the group sells goods and also has transportation obligation and where the control of the goods get transferred, the sale of goods and transportation is treated as separate performance obligation.

The group's obligation to repair/replace faulty product under the standard warranty terms is recognised as a provision. See note 24.

A receivable is recognised when the goods are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional, because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due. The credit facility is as per standard industry terms, thus there is no significant financing component.

(II) Sale of Services:

The performance obligation under service contract are installation, maintenance and other ancillary services set forth in the contracts. Revenue from rendering of services are recognised over a period of time by reference to the stage of completion as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit provided by the group's performance as the group performs. In case of transportation revenue, the group recovers actual cost of transportation from the customers. The cost is either billed separately in the invoice or included in the total transaction price. Where the transaction price is inclusive of cost of transportation, the group splits the transaction price into sale of products and sale of services. Payment for the service rendered is made as per the credit terms in the agreements with the customers. The credit period is generally short term, thus there is no significant financing component.

Duty drawback : Income from duty drawback is recognised on accrual basis.

Royalty : Royalty is recognised on accrual basis in accordance with terms of respective agreements.

Rent : Rental Income is recognised on accrual basis in accordance with terms of respective rent agreements.

(f) Government grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the group will comply with all the attached conditions.

Government grants relating to income are deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.

Government grants relating to purchase of property, plant and equipment are presented by deducting the grant from carrying amount of the asset.

(g) Income taxes

The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.

Current tax liabilities (assets) for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be paid to (recovered from) the taxation authorities, using the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

Deferred tax liabilities are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in subsidiaries and interest in joint arrangements where the group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in subsidiaries and interest in joint arrangements where it is not probable that the differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will not be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability, simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

(h) Leases

As explained in Note 1(a)(iii) point 1, the group has changed its accounting policy for leases, where the group is the lessee. The effects of change in accounting policy is described in note 48.

Till March 31, 2019

As a lessee

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the group, as a lessee, has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease's inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in borrowings or other financial liabilities as appropriate. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the group as lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor's expected inflationary cost Increases.

As a lessor

Lease income from operating leases where the group is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary cost increases. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.

With effective from April 01, 2019:

As a lessee

From April 01, 2019, leases are recognised as right of use assets and a corresponding liabilities at the date at which the leased asset are available for use by the group. Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The group allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. However for leases of real estate for which the group is the lessee, it has elected not to separate the lease and non-lease components and instead accounts for these as single lease component.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

  • fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable
  • variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
  • * amounts expected to be payable by the group under residual value guarantees
  • the exercise price of a purchase option, if the group is reasonably certain to exercise that option and
  • payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the group exercising that option.

Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the group, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the group:

  • where possible, uses recent third-party financing $\blacksquare$ received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received
  • · uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by the group, which does not have recent third party financing and

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

$\cdot$ makes adjustments specific to the lease such as term, country, currency and security.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

  • the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
  • ÷ any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
  • any initial direct costs and
  • restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life.

Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and all leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise office equipment and small items of office furniture.

As a lessor

Lease income from operating leases where the group is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary cost increases. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.

The group did not need to make any adjustments to the accounting for the assets held as lessor as a result of adopting the new standard.

(I) Business combinations

A business combination is a transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses and results in the consolidation of the assets and liabilities acquired. Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method.

The consideration transferred is the sum of the acquisitiondate fair values of the assets transferred, equity instruments issues or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree. Deferred consideration payable is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at the acquisition-date fair value. At each reporting date subsequent to the acquisition, contingent consideration payable is measured at its fair value with any

changes in the fair value recognised in profit or loss unless the contingent consideration is classified as equity, in which case the contingent consideration is carried at its acquisition-date fair value.

Goodwill is recognised initially at the excess of: (a) the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the fair value of the non-controlling interest, and the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest (in case of step acquisition); over (b) the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the net fair value of the acquirer's interest in the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is greater than the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the fair value of the non-controlling interest, and the acquisition date fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest, the difference is immediately recognised as a gain in the profit or loss.

Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

(i) Impairment of assets

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cashgenerating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Other facilities are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.

Cash Flow Statement: The Cash flow from Operating activities are prepared under the Indirect method, whereby profit or loss 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 expense associated with investing or financing cash flows.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(I) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment, if anv.

(m) Inventories

Raw materials and stores, work in progress, traded and finished goods

Raw materials and stores, work in progress, traded and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of raw materials and traded goods comprises cost of purchases. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of variable and fixed overhead expenditure, the latter being allocated on the basis of normal operating capacity. Cost of inventories also include all other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Costs are assigned to Individual items of inventory on the basis of first-in first-out basis. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

(n) Investments and other financial assets

(i) Classification

The group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

a) those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and

b) those measured at amortised cost.

The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in equity instruments, that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the group has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

(ii) Recognition

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which the group commits to purchase or sale of financial asset.

(iii) Measurement

At initial recognition, the group measures a financial asset

at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.

Debt instruments

Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the group's business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the group classifies its debt instruments:

a) Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in the finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses). Impairment losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit and loss.

b) Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other income/ (expense). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are presented as separate line item in statement of profit and loss.

c) Fair value through profit or loss: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss within other income/ (expense) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.

Equity instruments

The group measures all equity investments at fair value, except for investments forming part of interest in subsidiaries and joint ventures, which are measured at cost. Where the group's management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments are recognised in profit or loss as other income when the group's right to receive payments is established.

Changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in other income/ (expense) in the statement of profit and loss. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.

(iv) Impairment of financial assets

The group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI debt instruments. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Note 37 details how the group determines whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

For trade receivables only, the group applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

(v) Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset is derecognised only when

a) The group has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or

b) The group retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.

Where the group has transferred an asset, it evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the group has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.

Where the group has neither transferred a financial asset nor retained substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the group has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the group retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.

(vi) Income recognition

a) Interest income

Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is disclosed as interest income within other income.

Interest income on financial assets at amortised cost and financial assets at FVOCI is calculated using effective interest method is recognised in statement of profit and loss as part of other income.

Interest income is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of financial

assets except for financial assets that subsequently become credit impaired. For credit-impaired financial assets the effective interest rate is applied to the net carrying amount of the financial asset (after deduction of loss allowance).

b) Dividends

Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the group, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.

(o) Derivatives and hedging activities

Derivatives are only used for economic hedging purposes and not as speculative investments. However where derivatives do not meet the hedge accounting criteria, they are classified as 'held for trading' for accounting purposes and are accounted for FVPL. They are presented as current assets and liabilities to the extent they are expected to be settled within 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of item being hedged.

The group designates derivatives as hedges of a particular risk associated with cash flows of recognised assets and liabilities and highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

At inception of hedge relationship, the group documents the economic relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items including whether the changes in the cash flows of hedging instruments are expected to offset changes in cash flows of hedged items. The group documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking its hedge transactions.

The full fair value of hedging derivative is classified as a non current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months, it is classified as current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months.

(I) Cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recognised in cash flow hedging reserve within equity. The gain or loss relating to ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, within other gains/(losses). Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges are recognised in equity in the cash flow hedging reserve (net of tax). This gain or loss is released to profit or loss in the same period when the forecast transactions occur, thereby offsetting any exchange fluctuations that would have been recognised in the absence of the hedge.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of the interest rate swaps hedging variable rate borrowings is recognised in profit or loss within 'finance cost' at the same time as the interest expense on the hedged borrowings.

(ii) Derivatives that are not designated as hedges

The group enters into certain derivative contracts to hedge risks which are not designated as hedges. Such contracts are accounted for at fair value through profit or loss and are included in other income / (expense).

(p) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the group or the counterparty.

(q) Property, plant and equipment

Freehold land is carried at historical cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation methods, estimated useful lives and residual value:

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line and written down value methods to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives.

The useful lives have been determined based on Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except roads (classified as buildings), tools, jigs and fixtures, patterns and mould and dies (classified as plant and machinery), where useful lives have been determined based on technical evaluation done by the management's expert which are higher than those specified by Schedule II to the Companies Act; 2013, in order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset.

However, in relation to Elgi Compressors USA Inc, the depreciation is recorded on the straight-line basis\written down value method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 7 years for machinery and equipment, office furniture and fixtures and automobiles, over the life of the lease for leasehold improvements and 20 years for buildings. In Rotair SPA, the depreciation is recorded on the straight line method over the estimated useful life of 10 years for light weight constructions classified under buildings, over 33 years for other buildings and over 4 to 10 years for other tangible assets.

The assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other income / (expense).

(r) Investment properties

Property that is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and that is not occupied by the group, is classified as investment property. Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

Investment properties (other than land) are depreciated using the written down value method over their estimated useful lives. Investment properties have a useful life of 30 years. The useful lives have been determined based on Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

(s) Goodwill and Other Intangible assets

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identifiable or separately recognised.

Goodwill is not amortized but it is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

The intangible assets includes technical know-how, customer relationships, brand, non-compete fees and computer software which are recorded at the cost of acquisition and are amortized over a period of their legal / useful life as below,

(t) Research and development

Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique products controlled by the group are recognised as intangible assets when the following criteria are met:

-it is technically feasible to complete the asset so that it will be available for use

-management intends to complete the asset and use or sell it

-there is an ability to use or sell the product

-it can be demonstrated how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits

-adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset are available and

-the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development can be reliably measured

Directly attributable costs that are capitalised as part of the products include employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

Capitalised development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortised from the point at which the asset is available for use.

Research and development expenditure that do not meet the criteria for recognition as intangible assets are recognised as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognised as an expense are not recognised as an asset in the subsequent period.

(u) Trade and Other Payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

(v) Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the

borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.

Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other gains / (losses). Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

(w) Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings, pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.

Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

(x) Provisions

Provisions for legal claims, service warranties, volume discounts and returns are recognised when the group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

(y) Employee Benefits

(I) Short-term obligations

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of employees' services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as other financial liability in the balance sheet.

(ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations

The liabilities for earned leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period In which the employees render the related service are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss.

The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.

(iii) Post-employment obligations

The group operates the following post-employment schemes:

(a) defined benefit plans such as gratuity and

(b) defined contribution plans such as provident fund and Superannuation fund.

Gratulty obligations

The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.

The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.

Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

Defined contribution plans

The group pays provident fund and superannuation fund contributions to Employee Provident Fund Account as per Employees Provident Fund Act, 1952 and Life Insurance Corporation of India, respectively. The group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.

(iv) Bonus plans

The group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses. The group recognises a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

(v) Share based payments

Share based compensation benefits are provided to the employees via Elgi Equipments Limited Employees Stock Option Plan, 2019, an employee stock option scheme.

The fair value of options granted under the Elgi Equipments Limited Employee Stock Option Plan, 2019 is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in the equity. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted. Refer note 47.

  • including any market performance conditions (e.g., the entity's share price)

-excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions (e.g. profitability, sales growth targets and remaining of an employee of the entity over a specified time period) and

-including the impact of any non-vesting conditions (e.g. the requirement for employees to hold the shares for a specific period of time).

The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(z) Contributed Equity

Equity shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(aa) Dividends

Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period.

(ab) Earnings Per Share

(I) Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:

  • the profit attributable to owners of the group

  • by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in equity shares issued during the year and excluding treasury shares (note 49).

(ii) Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account:

  • the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and

  • the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

(ac) Insurance Claims

Insurance claims are accounted for on the basis of claims admitted / expected to be admitted and to the extent that the amount recoverable can be measured reliably and it is reasonable to expect ultimate collection.

(ad) Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest millions as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

2 Critical estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the group's accounting policies.

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.

The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:

Estimation of goodwill impairment $-$ Note 5
Estimation of provision for warranty claims $-$ Note 24
Estimation of defined benefit obligations
and other employee terminal benefits
$-$ Note 24(a)
Estimation of current tax expense and Note 26

payable Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They

are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the group and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Estimation of fair value

The fair values of investment properties have been determined as follows:

(i) for the investment property purchased during the year, the transaction price has been considered as the fair value, considering the shorter time period between date of acquisition of the asset and the reporting date.

(ii) for others, the fair values of investment properties have been determined with reference to the guideline value as determined by the Government for the location at which the property is located, increased by the depreciated value of buildings. All the resulting fair value estimates of investment properties are included in Level 2. The Guideline values were revised by the Government of Tamil Nadu with effect from June 9, 2017.

Investment properties pledged as security

Refer note 45 for information on property, plant and equipment pledged as security by the group.

(iii) Significant estimate:

Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations

The group tests whether goodwill has suffered any impairment on an annual basis. The recoverable amount of a cash generating unit (CGU) is determined based on value-in-use calculations which require the use of assumptions. The calculations use cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a five year period. Cash flows beyond the five year period are extrapolated using the estimated growth rates stated below.

Assumption Approach used to determining values
Sales Average annual growth rate over the explicit forecast period; based on past
performance and management's expectations of market development.
Budgeted gross margin Based on past performance and management's expectations for the future.
Other operating costs Management forecasts these costs based on the current structure of the
business, adjusting for inflationary increases but not reflecting any future
restructurings.
Annual capital expenditure Expected cash costs in the CGUs. This is based on the historical experience of
management, and the planned refurbishment expenditure. No incremental
revenue or cost savings are assumed in the value-in-use model as a result of
this expenditure.
Long-term growth rate This is the weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows
beyond the budget period. The rates are consistent with forecasts included in
industry reports.
Post-tax discount rates Reflect specific risks relating to the relevant segments and the countries in
which they operate.

Management has determined the values assigned to each of the above key assumptions as follows:

The group has considered and assessed reasonably possible changes for key assumptions and have not identified any instances that could cause carrying amount of the above mentioned CGU's to exceed its recoverable amount.

The obligation of the group is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation.

Superannuation Fund:

The group contributes a percentage of eligible employees salary towards superannuation fund administered by a fund managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India.

The expense recognised during the period towards defined contribution plan is ₹122.85 million (March 31, 2019-₹121.67 million)

(iii) Post-employment benefit obligations - Gratuity

The group provides for gratuity for employees in India as per the payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Employees who are in continuous service for a period of 5 years are eligible for gratuity. The amount of Gratuity payable on retirement/termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service. The gratuity is a funded plan and the group makes contribution to recognised fund in India. The group does not fully fund the liability and maintains a target level of funding to be maintained over a period of time based on estimations of expected gratuity payments.

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

(vi) Major Category of Plan Assets as a % of total Plan Assets

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Funds managed by LIC of India 100.00% 100.00%

The expected rate of return on assets is determined based on the assessment made at the beginning of the year on the return expected on its existing portfolio, along with the estimated increment to the plan assets and expected yield on the respective assets in the portfolio during the year.

(vii) Risk exposure

The group operates the India Gratuity Plan through a trust fund which invests in Life Insurance Corporation of India.

Asset Volatility:

A large portion of the investment made by the LIC is in government bonds and securities and other approved securities. Hence, the group is not exposed to the risk of asset volatility as at the balance sheet date.

Changes in bond yield: A decrease in bond yield will increase plan liabilities, although this will be partially offset by an increase in value of plan's bond holdings.

Inflation Risk: In the pension plans, the pensions in the payment are not linked to inflation, so this is a less material risk.

(viii) Defined benefit liability and employer contributions

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 9.27 years (March 31, 2018 - 10.97 years).The following payments are expected contribution to defined benefit obligation in the future years.

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Within next 12 months (next annual reporting period) 46.82 37.25
Between 1 to 2 years 34.94 25.15

(ix) Provision for other employee terminal benefits

The group operates defined benefit pension plans in United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Italy under the respective regulatory group framework. The terminal benefits are paid to the employees on termination or completion of their term of employment.

The group has recognised deferred tax assets on carried forward losses of Eigi Compressors USA Inc and Eigi Equipments Australia Pty Limited. The group has concluded that deferred tax assets will be recoverable using the estimated future taxable income based on the approved business plans and the budgets of the respective subsidiaries. The losses can be carried forward till financial year ending March 31, 2034, for Elgi Compressors USA Inc, as per the local regulations and the group expects to recover the losses.

The gross movement in the deferred income tax account for the year ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 is as follows.

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Net deferred tax (asset)/ liability at the beginning of the year (1.23) 7.51

Net deferred tax (asset)/liability at the end of the year (120.85) (1.23)

Certain subdidiaries of the group have undistributed earnings, which if distributed, would be subject to tax. An assessable temporary difference exists but, no deferred tax liability has been recognised as the parent entity is able to control the timing of the distribution from the subsidiaries. These subsidiaries are not expected to distribute the dividends out of accumiated earnings in the forseeable future.

(i) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This consists of listed equity instruments, that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for deposits included in level 3.

There are no transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3 during the year.

The group's policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.

(II) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

-the use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments

-the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date

-the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.

(iii) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, deposits with financial institutions and subsidiaries, current borrowings and other current financial liabilities and financial assets are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature and in the case of borrowings due to fact that they are subject to variable rate of interest.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

The fair values for loans to employees were calculated based on cash flows discounted using a current lending rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs including counterparty credit risk. The security deposits are payable on demand and hence their carrying amount is considered as fair value. The borrowings carry a variable rate of interest and hence their carrying amount is considered as fair value.

For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.

The group's risk management is carried out by a central treasury department under policies approved by the board of directors. Group's treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the group's operating units. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

Where all relevant criteria are met, hedge accounting is applied to remove the accounting mismatch between the hedging Instrument and hedged item. This will effectively result in recognising interest expense at the fixed interest rate for the hedged floating rate loans.

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, contractual cash flows from debt instruments carried at amortised cost, favourable derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers including outstanding receivables.

(I) Credit risk management

Credit risk is managed at individual company level. In relation to banks and financial institutions, only high rated banks/ institutions are accepted.

The group assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal and external ratings in accordance with the limits set by the Company. The finance function consists of a separate team who assess and maintain an internal credit rating system. The compliance with the credit limits by customers is regularly monitored by the finance function.

(ii) Security

For some trade receivables, the group may obtain security in the form of guarantees, deeds of undertaking or letter of credit, which can be called upon if counter party is in default under the terms of the agreement. However, the group has not obtained any such securities for its trade receivables outstanding at the reporting date.

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(iii) Impairment of financial assets

The group provides for expected credit loss based on the following:

Asset is written off

For the years ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019

(a) Expected credit loss for loans, security deposits and investments

During the year ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 the estimated gross carrying amount at default is ₹Nil.

(b) Expected credit loss for trade receivables under simplified approach

Customer credit risk is managed by the group based on the group's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an internal credit rating system. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and and assessed for its recoverability.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 11. The group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers has sufficient capacity to meet the obligations and the risk of default is negligible.

(iv) Reconciliation of loss allowance provision - Trade receivables

Loss allowance on April 1, 2018 82.51
Changes in loss allowance (31.60)
Loss allowance on March 31, 2019 50.91
Changes in loss allowance 4.50
Loss allowance on March 31, 2020 55.41

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Group's treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the group's liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(i) Financing arrangements

The group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019
Floating rate
Expiring within one year (including other facilities) 2,687.21 2,976.24

The credit facility sanctioned by the banks are subject to renewal, every year.

Subject to the continuance of satisfactory credit ratings, the bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time and can be renewed for further period of 1 year.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for:

a) all non-derivative financial liabilities, and

b) net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant. For interest rate swaps, the cash flows have been estimated using forward interest rate applicable at the end of the reporting period.

(C) Market risk

(i) Foreign currency risk

The group operates internationally and a portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the USD, EUR, AUD, BRL. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company's functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecast of highly probable foreign currency cash flows.

Functional currency/BRL decreases by 5% (3.59) (2.12)

The above sensitivity has been computed assuming that there is no change in functional currency to INR.

(ii) Cash flow and Fair value interest rate risk

The group's main interest rate risk arises from long term borrowings with variable rates, which exposes the group to cash flow interest rate risk. During the year ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the group's borrowings at variable rate are mainly denominated in USD and AUD.

The group's fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined In Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in the market interest rate.

At the end of the reporting period the group has following variable rate long term borrowings and interest rate swap contracts outstanding.

(ii) Price risk

The group's exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the group and classified in the balance sheet as fair value through OCI.

To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the group.

Sensitivity

The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the index on the group's equity and total comprehensive income for the period. The analysis is based on the assumption that the equity index had increased by 5% or decreased by 5% with all other variables held constant and that all the group's equity instruments moved in line with the index.

Impact on other components of equity

Other components of equity would increase/decrease as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as fair value though other comprehensive income.

38 Capital management

(a) Risk management

The group's objectives when managing capital are to

• safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and

. maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

Consistent with others in the industry, the group monitors capital on the basis of the following gearing ratio:

Net debt (total borrowings and lease liabilities net of cash and cash equivalents and deposits with Banks and Financial institutions ) divided by Total equity (as shown in the balance sheet).

The current gearing ratio of the group is as follows:

Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019

40 Business Combinations

(a) Acquistion of a subsidiary- Michigan Air Solutions LLC

On December 16, 2019, the subsidiary- Elgi Compressors USA Inc. entered into a Purchase Agreement in which it acquired all of the outstanding shares of Michigan Air Solutions LLC. The total purchase price consisted of ₹386.26 million of cash after certain working capital contributions. ₹42.50 million of this purchase is being held in escrow as a holdback for potential slow-moving or obsolete inventory. At the one-year anniversary date of the agreement, if the sales of this inventory is less than the holdback amount, then the inventory sales amount will go to the Seller and if it is greater, the entire amount will go to the Seller. The Company evaluated the expected funds to be returned from escrow as of the date of acquisition and determined that no amounts will be received. The purchase price was allocated to the Company's tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the closing date of the acquisition. The remainder of the purchase price was recorded as goodwill. The parties to this transaction agreed to an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code to treat the transaction as an asset purchase, enabling the Company to deduct the amortization of intangible assets for tax purposes over fifteen years.

The purchase consideration of ₹386.26 million was paid in cash.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Notes to the Consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020

(All amounts are in Millions in INR unless otherwise stated)

(ii) The group had deposited a sum of ₹18.80 million with Railways department of the Government of India in respect of a Road Under Bridge (RUB) project undertaken by the Railways near the Holding Company's factory at Kodangipalayam village. As Railways had planned for a Limited Use Subway and as the RUB project undertaken would benefit the public at large, the deposit was made as directed by the Madras High Court as an interim measure, pending finality as to whether the group has to bear the full cost or only the differential cost. The group has received an unfavourable order on June 03, 2020 from the single judge of the Madras High Court holding that neither party is required to make any payment to the other. As the group is appealing against this order for consideration by the Division bench and the group is confident of defending the case successfully, no provision has been made in the books of account.

(iii) In respect of Belair SAS, the erstwhile subsidiary over which the Holding Company lost control in April 2016, the group has received an unfavourable order from the French Authority to an extent of ₹13.33 million. The group has assessed the impact of the order and has provided ₹9.2 million based on the best estimate of the possible outflow.

(iv) The group has evaluated the impact of the recent Supreme Court Judgment in case of "Vivekananda Vidyamandir And Others Vs The Regional Provident Fund Commissioner (II) West Bengal" and the related circular (Circular No.C-I/1(33)2019/Vivekananda Vidya Mandir/284) dated March 20, 2019 issued by the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation in relation to non-exclusion of certain allowances from the definition of "basic wages" of the relevant employees for the purposes of determining contribution to provident fund under the Employees' Provident Funds & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. In the assessment of the group, the aforesaid matter is not likely to have a significant impact.

The plan shall be administered through a Trust via acquisition of the equity shares from the secondary market.

The Eigl ESOP 2019 plan is designed to provide benefits to the eligible employees of the Parent and its subsidiarles. Under the plan, the participants are granted options which vest upon completion of three years of service from the grant date. Participation in the plan is at the board's discretion and no individual has a contractual right to participate in the plan or to receive any guaranteed benefits.

Once vested, the options remain exercisable for a period of three months.

Options are granted under the plan for no consideration and carry no dividend or voting rights. When exercisable, each option is convertible into one equity share.

Set out below is the summary of options granted under the plan:

Particulars March 31, 2020

(i) Fair value of options granted

The fair value at grant date of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2020 is ₹55.42 per option. The fair value at grant date is independently determined using the Black-Scholes Model which takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the share price at the grant date and expected volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free rate for the term of the option.

. The model inputs for the options granted during the year ended March 31, 2020 include the following

48 Changes in accounting policies

This note explains the impact of changes in accounting policies on adoption of Ind AS 116 Leases.

As indicated in Note no 1(a)(iii) of Significant Accounting policies, the group has accounted for Ind AS 116 from April 01, 2019, using simplified approach and has not restated the comparatives for the financial year ended March 31, 2019, as permitted under the specific transition provision in the standard.

The reclassification and the adjustments arising from the new leasing rules are therefore recognised in the opening balance sheet on April 01, 2019. The new accounting policies are disclosed in note no 1(h).

On adoption of Ind AS 116, the group recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as 'Operating leases' under the principles of Ind AS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at present value of remaining lease payments discounted using lessee's incremental borrowing rate as at April 01, 2019. The lessee's weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on April 01, 2019 was 5.75% p.a.

For leases previously classified as finance lease the group recognised the carrying amount of lease asset and lease liability as the carrying amount of right-of-use asset and the lease liability at the date of initial application. The measurement principles of Ind AS 116 are applied only after this date.

(i) Practical expedients applied

In applying Ind AS 116 for the first time, the group has used following practical expedients permitted by the standard; a) applying a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics

b) accounting for operating lease with remaining lease period of less than 12 months as at April 01, 2019 as short term leases.

(ii) Measurement of lease liabilities :

50 Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic:

The spread of COVID-19 has severely impacted businesses around the globe. In many countries, including India, there has been severe disruptions to regular business operations due to lock-downs, disruption in transportation, supply chain, travel bans, quarantines, social distancing and other emergency measures. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities is in the business of manufacturing and selling a range of air compressors, automotive equipments and its related parts to its customers having industrial applications in segment of food & beverages, oil & gas, manufacturing, medical, mining & construction, automotive and power generation business. The segments which are engaged in manufacturing and supply of products/services which are identified as essentials are not/less impacted compared to other segments. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities are trying to ensure the continuity of supplies and support to these customers while the lock down is being slowly lifted across the country.

However, the uncertainty caused by the current situation has resulted in delays in the confirmation of customer orders and in executing the orders in hand and increase in lead times in sourcing components. The situation is likely to continue for next two quarters based on the current assessment. With lockdown restrictions easing out in phases, the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities are now seeing a slow improvement in inflows of customer orders and the pace of recovery is being closely monitored.

The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities are actively monitoring the sales performance across its geographies and taking necessary actions to contain costs to reduce the impact of revenue compression from COVID-19. While the profitability for the first quarter of 2020-21 would be impacted due to this, the exact profitability would be measured and reported as part of the quarterly results to be declared by the company for the first quarter.

Since the dealers and customers of Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities have delayed their payments, the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities in turn actively negotiated for credit period extension from their suppliers. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities have made detailed assessment of their liquidity position for next one year and of the recoverability and carrying values of the assets comprising of Property, plant and equipment, Intangible assets, Trade receivables, Inventory and Investments as at the balance sheet date and have concluded that there are no material adjustments required in the consolidated financial results. Regarding Inventory, the Holding Company's management has performed the year-end inventory verification in the presence of the internal auditor subsequently in May and June 2020 and performed rollback procedures to obtain comfort over the existence and condition of inventories as at March 31, 2020. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities have also evaluated the internal controls including internal controls with reference to financial statements. All the controls are operating effectively and the Company has not diluted any controls.

The Management believes that it has taken into account all the possible impact of known events arising from COVID-19 pandemic in the preparation of consolidated financial statements. However, the impact assessment of COVID-19 is a continuous process given the uncertainties associated with its nature and duration. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled will continue to monitor any material changes to the future economic conditions. The Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities expect to get back to their pre-lockdown level of operations gradually over a period of time.

The Statutory auditors have drawn attention to the above matter in their auditor's report.
