GRP'S PRIORITY DURING AND POST COVID-19, TO ASSURE WORKPLACE SAFETY.

Inspite of being majorly affected by the pandemic, GRP has taken various measures to support our employees emotionally and financially as far as possible. The overall wellbeing of our employees holds high priority for us and hence to ease their stress, we have taken steps to ensure timely payment of salaries, advance payment of salaries on requests and timely settlement of all claims. Food kits have also been provided to the workers at our plant locations. Apart from monetary help we have also been taking steps to ensure that our GRP family is engaged and motivated through these difficult times.

Our weekly fun Friday calls include motivational talks from our senior leadership members on becoming resilient and bouncing back from tough times, engaging activities conducted by our sparkplugs committee which has received amazing responses from our employees.

SINCE WE ARE A CLOSE KNIT FAMILY MORE THAN COLLEAGUES, WE FOLLOW AN OPEN DOOR POLICY WHERE RELATIONSHIPS ARE VALUED MORE THAN HIERARCHY.

Our leadership committee including the promoters of our company have shown high levels of emotional intelligence and empathy towards the grievances and concerns of our employees during these times and are always ready to listen to their problems and offer a helping hand. With the days getting better slowly, we have now restarted operations at our plant locations by ensuring compliance with the government prescribed norms and regulations. Each of our plant locations along with our head office has prepared various SOPs in order to ensure employee health and safety. Various awareness sessions have been given to our plant workers on safety measures that need to be followed.

WE ARE FINALLY HAPPY TO BE BACK!

REBIRTH OF A NEW WORLD FILLED WITH HUMANITY.

As the world grapples with its worst pandemic in a century, COVID 19, it would be an understatement that the world will ever be the same again! The Coronavirus is not just a medical emergency which has afflicted the entire world , this horrendous pandemic has also managed to put a strain on the socio-economic and political conditions of several countries.

But the good thing is that the covid-19 pandemic has prompted people from all over the world to help each other and those who are less fortunate or able than them. Everyone, regardless of the country's size, is pitching in. While India has helped various countries

like USA, Israel, Nepal, Bhutan, Mauritius, Maldives and many more with medicines and medical assistance, our country has also received financial assistance from countries like USA to help combat the pandemic. Countries are also helping each other to bring stranded citizens back home.

There is no doubt that the Covid-19

pandemic will change the face of human society. The virus has brought our lives to standstill. Empty roads, masked civilians, sanitizers have become part of our lives for the next few years. There is need to examine ourselves and ask where we were moving. The choices which we will make in

these times will not only contribute to our economy and political system but also to the state of humanity.

THE GRP FAMILY WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK OUR FRONTLINE WORKERS WHO HAVE BEEN WORKING TIRELESSLY IN THE SERVICE OF THE NATION. WE SALUTE YOUR COURAGE AND ENERGY!

We feel proud in welcoming this new world formed with new realizations, new heroes & new hopes of togetherness.

AS OUR ENVIRONMENT HAS ALSO BEEN HEALING ITSELF, WE PROMISE TO TAKE EFFORTS IN MAINTAINING ITS CURRENT STATE.

GRP's efforts at reducing dependence on Reclaim Rubber business is gaining traction. While the Reclaim Rubber business continues to remain the focal point of the company, the focus is shifting to technology upgradation, new product development, digitization initiatives. The Engineering Plastics, Polymer Composite businesses, on the other hand, have witnessed success by way of customer approvals, new application acceptance during the year and thus provides confidence to GRP's long term focus on growth in building a portfolio of sustainable materials business across the rubber, plastic value chain. The company's products help reduce carbon foot print, aid processing, enhance properties in the customer formulations. As the company's customers segments witnesses consolidation and customers focus on using alternate materials to embed sustainability in their products, GRP's position is slowly but surely getting strengthened.

RESILIENCE IS ACCEPTING YOUR NEW REALITY, EVEN IF IT'S LESS GOOD THAN THE ONE YOU HAD BEFORE. YOU CAN FIGHT IT OR YOU CAN ACCEPT IT AND TRY TO PUT TOGETHER SOMETHING BETTER.

This pandemic has certainly made us realize the need for social consciousness in the way we do business. I strongly believe GRP's offering of products, provides our customers sustainable materials and help them create a socially relevant Impact Positive in their products. Our belief in the future of sustainability also puts a greater sense of responsibility on us to upgrade the industry.

To this end, over the next months we're seeking to incorporate technology across our various processes, and focussing on upgrading our supply chain (bottom of the pyramid, below poverty line individuals) through enabling technologies for payments, collection. We recognise that a lot of our supply chain partners are dependant on migrant work force and this may need additional support to recover, which we continue to invest in.

With our ongoing focus, we believe we are well placed to face the upcoming challenges in the Post-COVID era and will emerge stronger than before to be your partner of choice in the days to come.

Rajendra Gandhi, Managing Director

SUSTAINABILITY

A continuing global trend – focus on sustainability – continues to be a positive for your company. Year on year increased focus is being observed at leading global companies and is expected to increase focus (and motivation) on using more reclaim and other recycled rubbers.

With new products that offer significantly improved performance, your company is uniquely placed to become a 'partner' to these companies. With ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) or Social investing assuming importance and with importance of Social businesses gaining prominence, your company is well positioned to offer solutions as part of the mobility industry's needs for sustainable products.

Your Company will retain its Silver Rating in EcoVadis 2020 Survey (Bronze Rating in 2018 Survey), a collaborative platform that provides sustainability ratings for global supply chains and a coverage across 150 countries and more than 55,000 companies.

GRP CERTIFIED AS A GREAT PLACE TO WORK (2020-21)

==> picture [281 x 104] intentionally omitted <==

The last week of March’20 was also a time when GRP was certified as a Great Place to Work. It is humbling and extremely heartening to learn of the confidence that fellow colleagues have expressed in GRP's culture and work practices for us to qualify for this prestige. We wouldn't have had this accolade but for the commitment and support of our business partners.

OUTCOME

The year gone by has demonstrated the company's resilience in the face of multiple economic events and we remain optimistic about the potential of revenue and margin growth from various BUs in the near term. Reclaim Rubber business operated at reasonable levels of capacity utilisation, however events on account of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in uncertainty for the current fiscal and the recovery in the company's customer segments will depend greatly on the return to normalcy across sectors.

HOWEVER WE REMAIN CONFIDENT OF OUR FINANCIAL STRENGTH, OUR GLOBAL ACCEPTANCE AND OUR PRODUCT

QUALITIES TO ENSURE THAT WE'LL BE THE FIRST CHOICE OF SUPPLIER TO REGAIN

The Engineering Plastics business has established a certain niche and strength across certain applications and we remain confident of a larger market share in the months to come. On back of potential partnership opportunities that we're actively pursuing, we are confident of significant growth in this business in the years to come. We continue to endeavour taking our R&D capabilities to other types of plastics for effective solutions.

The Polymer Composite business should grow in the current year on account of capacity expansion of our partner's manufacturing lines and will provide the hedge for material availability in the future. The Custom Die Forms business is likely to maintain status quo but will continue to provide the much needed leverage over raw materials for the Reclaim Rubber business.

STRENGTH AS CUSTOMERS SEEK MATERIALS FOR THE RESTART.

IMPACTING LIVES WITH KINDNESS

IN TIMES OF CRISIS.

During COVID-19 lockdown GRP’s regular contract workers that were unemployed, were supported by providing sufficient food supplies. These were provided at our workers’ doorstep which was a vital service enabling greater social distancing for people. Since it could not be done from home, our incredible team made it possible by distributing them.

VISIT TO TITWALA ORPHANGE, MUMBAI

GRP team gifted a refrigerator and stationery items to the Orphange at Titwala, along with essential supplies for menstrual hygiene. Team GRP spent the afternoon with these children and shared warmth, love and kindness towards these children, thereby extending support for their livelihood.

VISIT TO THE ANCHORAGE – A HOLISTIC LIFE SPACE FOR THE MENTALLY CHALLENGED, MUMBAI

Anchorage – A home school for adults with special needs at Mahalaxmi, Mumbai. It engages students (adults) with life skills development, various activity based and behavioural workshops as well as indulges them in different simple but interesting job work contracts and upskill them to improve on their abilities to perform/complete those activities. The money earned out of these contracts is equally distributed amongst all as their

stipend each month to uphold their self esteem and dignity. GRP contributed to this institution by gifting cookware, computing and music needs that will encourage them to use this for life skill session. We enjoyed celebrating with cake and goodies with them.

VISIT TO GURUKUL CENTRE FOR SPECIAL CHILDREN - GHATKOPAR, MUMBAI

Gurukul Centre for Special Children is a unique rehabilitation and educational centre for special children. The centre caters to the special needs of the children affected with cerebral palsy, mental retardation, autism and learning disabilities with excellent therapeutic management education programs. The centre aims at the holistic development of special children and provides supporting structure to them by creating positive, loving & caring environment.

VISIT TO KAMLABEN MEHTA DADAR SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND

Founded in 1900 by the American Marathi Mission 107 years ago, this is the country's premier primary-cum-secondary widely acknowledged school for visually challenged girl children. It is a kindergarten-class X school which offers education to 170 girl children from underprivileged families. This has been a unique opportunity for GRP, to donate stationery items and printing equipment and celebrate their annual day. Thus contributing towards women empowerment goal to strengthen girl education and encourage one of the neglected but significant section of the society.

GRP contributed towards their project and academic requirements by presenting them with computing equipment. The children were elated to have us. They performed on their favorite dance numbers and requested us to party with them. It was a memorable experience.

Your company has witnessed a marginal drop in revenue for the year under review, over the previous year, from Rs.35,306 lakh to Rs.34,442 lakh. The financial year 2019-20 was characterized by a drop in volume sales of 8 % in Reclaim Rubber business but was made up for by a favourable currency helping exports during the year. The net revenue drop for Reclaim Rubber business was a meagre 2% and that too on account of the year end impact of the COVID pandemic. Your company continues to grow its export base to more than 60 countries and has helped the company tide over a year of volatile rubber prices. The volatility in prices of polymers was compounded by a dramatic drop in prices of crude oil towards the end of the fiscal year leading to uncertainty in rubber prices for the current fiscal. Your company has, in these market conditions been able to hold prices of major product categories.

Performance of the company in the Custom Die-form segment has been flat and it continues to provide your company the hedge required for raw material purchasing. The Engineering Plastics has grown by 50% in revenue and plans for expanding capacity have been put in place to build on the success in that BU. The Polymer Composite business segment contracted marginally for the year under review on account of dependence on a single market which faced head winds due to a weak transportation sector during the financial year. Capacity addition in the Engineering Plastic business has been made to capitalize on the consolidation .

The company continues converting additional of its production lines to automated process and reduce manpower dependence in the process. Your company also continues in its journey of switching more of its energy needs to cleaner fuel sources.

Your Company has realised tax benefits u/s 35(2AB) of Income Tax Act on account of renewal of approval received from Department of Scientific & Industrial Research, Ministry of Science & Technology (DSIR), Government of India, New Delhi.

Management Discussion and Analysis Report 2019-20

During the year under review, the Indian auto industry struggled for most part of the year. The Original Equipment (OE) sales dived to its worst ever performance in years. The sales of Commercial Vehicle sales witnessed the steepest fall of all categories reflecting the state of the economy. The silver lining for your company’s growth was the spread of sales in the international markets. On the back of a favourable currency, your company has achieved export sales of Rs.247.26 crore in the previous year. However on account of import regulation making import of end of life waste harder, there continues to be growing challenges in availability of raw materials and challenges in competitive pressures from alternate uses of such end of life tyre waste. Your company has witnessed a significant growth in sales from the Engineering Plastics (EP) business and plans are afoot to expand capacity to meet the needs of the customers. The Rubber composite (RC) & EP businesses are close to being financially independent and likely to contribute meaningfully to the bottom line growth of your company in the years to come.

Segment wise Business overview :

GRP’s efforts at reducing dependence on Reclaim Rubber (RR) business are gaining traction. While the RR business continues to remain the focal point of the company, the focus in business is shifting to technology upgradation, new product development, digitization initiatives. The Engineering Plastic (EP), Polymer Composite (PC) businesses, on the other hand, have witnessed success by way of customer approvals, new application acceptance during the year and thus provides confidence to GRP’s long term focus on growth in building a portfolio of sustainable materials business across the rubber, plastic value chain. The company’s products help reduce carbon foot print, aid processing, enhance properties in the customer formulations. As the company’s customers segments witnesses consolidation (especially EP) and customers focus on using alternate materials to embed sustainability in their products, GRP’s position is slowly but surely getting strengthened.

As per the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) – 108 on operating segments, “Reclaim Rubber” has been identified as reportable segment and smaller business segments not separately reportable have been grouped under the heading “Others”.

Segment wise revenue –Revenue of Rs.32,886 lakhs was generated from Reclaim Rubber segment and revenue of Rs.1,635 lakhs was generated from Others segment.

Capital Expenditure :

Your company’s investment in the RR business continues towards automating processes, upgrading product properties, on cleaner production processes. Additional lines were converted to automated processes and the company has witnessed a sizeable reduction in temporary workforce on account of the automation. Investments in manufacturing process upgrade of RR to a cleaner technology has been approved by a couple of key customers and the current year will focus on replacing equipment in additional lines to mirror the same. Partnerships and agreements to convert energy requirements to clean sustainable sources like Wind (Panoli, Tamil Nadu), Natural gas (Ankleshwar, Panoli), Solar (Solapur) continue. Your company has added capacity to the tune of 3600 tons per annum in the Engineering Plastic business to capitalize the growth in this segment. A new line of equipment was also added in the Rubber composite business, however the same was loaned from the company’s technology partner from North America. Both the businesses capacity stands increased by 100% respectively.

Joint Venture & Subsidiary:

For Marangoni GRP Pvt. Ltd. (MGPL), the JV company active in the Commercial Vehicle (CV) tyre retreading industry in India, 2019-20 was a year of proving and establishing its business model, superior performance of its industry leading product range, attracting more Franchisees (including a Franchisee from India’s No.1 Retreading Network to switch to MGPL – a first for the company) and growing Franchisees’ business to beyond their individual breakeven. The footprint of the company increased to trucking centres of Jamnagar, Coimbatore, Hyderabad, Chandrapur and Nagpurwith Namakkal, Salem, Uttranchal, Chhatisgarh and Punjab on the near term horizon. MGPL’s model received a strong endorsement when a 10 year old member of India’s #1 Retreading Franchisee Network switched both his units to MGPL. To expand the market for its retreads, MGPL introduced the concept of the Store Owned Casing tyre (SOC) at two of its Franchisees successfully thereby, giving to the fleets a ready alternative to a new tyre. In the next few quarters, SOC will be rolled out across all Franchisees leading to significant revenue growth and recognition of MGPL amongst fleets.

Marangoni SpA’s strong support in terms of improved availability and wider range of Ringtread continues to be cornerstone of the customer strategy of attracting fleets. Localisation of retreading material and equipment has resulted in MGPL establishing itself as an end-to-end solution for Franchisees – only a handful of players in India offer this, thereby strengthening our position and perception of an upcoming leader in India. A key part of the ‘premiumisation’ strategy was to extend the Unitread range of premium flat treads into truck bias segment. A key element of the going forward plan

is to include end-of-life (ELT) into the value proposition offered to fleets in close coordination with GRP to become a ‘2nd Life to ELT’ solution – something that MGPL is uniquely positioned to bring to the market.

Industry Structure & Development :

Reclaim Rubber (RR):

The core of GRP and will continue to remain the mainstay of the company for a near future. The goodwill and the capability the Reclaim Rubber business lends the company has helped in its endeavours past and present. With increasing focus on ESG investing globally and companies focussing on adding more ways of making sustainable products, the RR business supports tyre manufacturers fulfil their producer responsibility towards the environment and also helps save virgin rubber resources for the global rubber industry. This is one of the most successful yet underappreciated product in the Circular economy endeavour that’s being globally touted. Your company’s focus in the RR business in the current year has been on upgrading to a cleaner technology which eliminates generation of waste water or toxic fumes. The new process makes your company’s position stronger among its peers and should lead to increased adoption in the time to come.

The financial year 2019-20 has been a wild year with significant events shaping the state of the economy, business, consumer sentiment, and top it all the global pandemic that began at the fag end of the fiscal year. While the impact of each of the events is given below, the overall global GDP growth in 2019 was 2.9% compared to 3.6% in the previous year, with a fall in growth amongst mainly the Advanced economies (as defined by the IMF). The impact of Brexit resulted in an overall negative performance for the whole European Market for 2019-20, so while there was some stability in the replacement market, truck tyres registered flat sales, while passenger tyre sales witnessed de-growth. As a result GRP’s sales to the EU was flat compared to the previous year. The impact of the US-China trade war had a mixed impact on GRP’s performance. Whilst sales to the Chinese customers grew for most part of the year, the second half of the fiscal saw lower sales on account of anti-dumping duties on Chinese products (led to lower manufacturing activity). The sales to Chinese tyre/tube industries comprises ~14% by value of GRP’s total sales. However the positive implication on account of the growing voices against over dependence on Chinese supply chains, resulted in partial increase in volumes against Chinese competitors. Your company was able to increase its share among a few large global tyre companies who substituted Chinese supplies with that from your company. This should be a positive in the months to come and has helped GRP increase its share of wallet with large global accounts. The Gulf oil crisis (war within OPEC) burnt through the synthetic rubber prices & consequently Natural Rubber prices. With a deterioration in the oil prices, your company was under constant pressure from customers and competitors alike towards reducing prices of the products resulting in margin pressures as witnessed in the financial position. Towards the end of the fiscal, the business disruption on account of COVID impact continues to be felt across all sectors. However your company’s sales to the Chinese customers were affected starting January for the entire quarter. Given that Chinese customers account for about 13-15% by value of GRP’s total sales, the impact of COVID-19 on your company’s operations has been significant in the year under review.

India’s growth in the year under review softened to 4.2% in 2019 compared with 4.5% in 2018 (as per the IMF). However the Indian automotive industry has had a very different picture to paint. The automotive original equipment manufacturing industry has had one of the worst years in recent memory and not all of it is on account of the recent lockdown/disruption. The reasons for the dismal performance are attributed to a combination of a) Stringent environmental regulations, key among those being the adoption of BS-VI norms that led to confusion over its implementation date and the resultant increase in price of automobiles & inventory of older vehicles, b) A moderate economic growth (4.2%) in the country leading to a muted demand in sectors including for the first time in many years, the 2-wheeler segment, c) Growing popularity of shared mobility leading to lower per capita purchase of 4-wheelers and d) The crumbling of the NBFC sector leading to drying loans that have fuelled growth in auto sales over the last years. The only positive for the Indian automotive industry has been the export growth, but the share of exports in the country is insignificant to help the overall sales. The tyre industry in corollary has also witnessed one of its lowest growth in terms of revenue. After two consecutive years of double digit growth (12% in FY 18, 14% in FY 19), the tyre industry ended the year at a meagre 3-4% growth adding pressure to its balance sheet with a large capacity expansion plan. Whilst replacement tyre sales has normally insulated the industry against a weak OE demand, in the year under review, the replacement sales has been unable to provide the impetus to the tyre industry in the country. The non-automotive sectors being served by your company (conveyor belts, industrial flooring, among others) has also faced headwinds and hence not demonstrated growth.

A continuing global trend – focus on sustainability – continues to be a positive for your company. Year on year increased focus is being observed at leading global companies and is expected to increase focus (and motivation) on using more reclaim and other recycled rubbers. With new products that offer significantly improved performance, your company is uniquely placed to become a ‘partner’ to these companies. With ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) or Social investing assuming importance and with importance of Social businesses gaining prominence, your company is well positioned to offer solutions as part of the mobility industry’s needs for sustainable products. Your company continues to retain its Silver Rating in EcoVadis 2020 Survey (Bronze Rating in 2018 Survey), a collaborative platform that provides sustainability ratings for global supply chains and a coverage across 150 countries and more than 55,000 companies.

Other Business:

The Engineering Plastics (EP) business is operating in a high growth industry (Nylon is considered the fastest growing Engineering Plastic among all plastics) that’s replacing several higher weight materials in Automotive, Industrial & Home furnishing space. Your company continues to rely largely on in-house stream of raw materials generated in the Reclaim Rubber operation, leading to a much lower cost of raw materials compared to peers in the industry. The Nylon/Engineering Plastic industry in India is in a consolidation phase with increasing focus on backward integration and move towards greater control over raw materials. Your company continues to grow its portfolio and has had reasonable success by way of customers approvals across reputed brands in the industry. From large tier-1 OE manufacturers to multinational compounding companies to largest furniture brands in the country. This business is likely to witness aggressive growth in the years to come and capacity addition plans are underway to mirror the same, including potential partnership arrangements for long term offtake.

The Custom-die Forms (CDF) business continues to provide the much needed hedge for material purchasing of Reclaim Rubber. Your company has recently been successful at expanding the customer base including some domestic customers with a potential to diversify away from the traditional markets of North America. With a potential growth in other geographies, this BU will continue to remain an important part of the company’s future.

The Polymer Composites (PC) business is a technology tie-up with an American company to produce composite products from rubber and plastics. The business has remained steady/flat during the year under review on account of a weak North American economy. Your company is making efforts at growing this business in other geographies and is confident of a turnaround in the current year (the COVID impact not withstanding).

Notes:

  1. The change in ASI 10 has led to an increase in the finance cost, however we remain within the covenants of the arrangements with our lending banks.

  2. The company has drawn down long term debt to fund capital expenditure towards capacity expansion in the EP business and automation of

  3. its traditional processes, leading to a higher Debt Equity ratio.

  4. A major reason for the lower Operating Profit Margin & Net Profit Margin are the loss of revenue & increased expenses on account of the COVID lockdown.

  5. The resultant reduction in PAT has led to a reduced Return on Net worth.

Opportunities, Risks and Concerns :

Your company’s position as a preferred supplier of sustainable materials based continues to be strengthened further by its focus in areas that have strategic adjacency. Each of GRPs Bus are organized under the sustainability theme of Recycle, Reuse and Reduce and is providing the impetus for future proofing your company. Your company continues to lead the industry standards through the introduction of new products, adoption of cleaner processes, upgrading standard of products supplied. In each of the segments it operates, it has a niche and is able to compete with established players operating at much larger scale, hence points to a much larger potential.

The diversified nature of its businesses, its customer segments (Tyres, Automotive, Industrial, Home furnishing, Oil & Gas, transportation), its geographies (the company exports actively to more than 40 countries) provide your company the hedge against sudden global events. The shortterm to medium-term trend of market growth in these new industry segments gave your company the confidence to achieve and maintain a profitable growth trajectory.

A growing concern, however, continues to remain around policies for End-Of-Life waste regulation in the domestic markets and also for imports. While your company is managing this by expanding its network of suppliers in India as well as overseas and by constantly working at the R&D level to find ways to use new EOL material available in the market, risks arising out of some of these external events continue to remain a challenge. The company has a robust Risk Management process within the company and focus has been increased at the Corporate and BU level to actively use it in making key decisions.

Outlook :

The year gone by has demonstrated the company’s resilience in the face of multiple economic events and we remain optimistic about the potential of revenue and margin growth from various BUs in the near term. RR business operated at reasonable levels of capacity utilisation, however events on account of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in uncertainty for the current fiscal and the recovery in the company’s customer segments will depend greatly on the return to normalcy across sectors. However we remain confident of our financial strength, our global acceptance and our product qualities to ensure that we’ll be the first choice of supplier to regain strength as customers seek materials for the restart. The EP business has established a certain niche and strength across certain applications and we remain confident of a larger market share in the months to come. On back of potential partnership opportunities that we’re actively pursuing, we are confident of significant growth in this business in the years to come. We continue to endeavour taking our R&D capabilities to other types of plastics for effective solutions. The PC business should grow in the current year on account of capacity expansion of our partner’s manufacturing lines and will provide the hedge for material availability in the future. The CDF business is likely to maintain status quo but will continue to provide the much needed leverage over raw materials for the Reclaim Rubber business.

Internal Control Framework:

Your Company conducts its business with integrity and high standards of ethical behaviour, and in compliance with the laws and regulations that govern its business. Your Company has a well-established framework of internal controls in operation, supported by standard operating procedures, policies and guidelines, including suitable monitoring procedures and self-assessment exercises. There are Internal Audit and Compliance functions in place which are responsible for independently evaluating the adequacy of all internal controls and ensuring operating and business units adhere to internal processes and procedures as well as to regulatory and legal requirements. The audit function also proactively recommends improvements in operational processes.

In addition to external audit, the financial and operational controls of your Company at various locations are reviewed by the Internal Auditors, to report significant findings to the Audit Committee of the Board. The Audit Committee reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the implementation of audit recommendations including those relating to strengthening the Company’s risk management policies and systems. Compliance with laws and regulations is also monitored through a matrix of a well laid down framework which requires individual functions to confirm and report statutory compliances on all laws and regulations concerning their respective functions and which gets integrated with the overall compliance reporting on all laws and regulations for the purposes of review and monitoring by the Audit Committee.

GRP LIMITED

People and Practices :

The Company recognizes the importance and contribution of its human resources for its growth & development and values their talent, integrity and dedication. To stay in line with the current market practices and promote opportunities of job enrichment, the Company undertook a Level Restructuring exercise this year to flatten the structure, provide greater opportunities for younger talent joining the organization and pave the way for a leaner team for the future. Several new people practices like Traineeship programs, Internal Job Posting, Flexi-Time, Work from Home etc. were also launched. The Company continues to foster a high performance culture by recognizing good performers and providing them with career enhancing opportunities. Several HR initiatives have been taken for the strategic alignment of HR function with the business objectives. These initiatives encompass employee engagement, learning & development. The Company has been successful in attracting and retaining key professionals and intends to continue to seek fresh talent to further enhance and grow its business. A result of all the above has resulted in the company being certified A Great Place to Work in its first attempt at this accolade. As the Company grows its other business units, talent acquisition will remain a continued focus of the future.

The GRP Board continues to challenge the management and push for higher targets. The Board’s well rounded experience comprises individuals with experience in leading tyre industry, chemical industry, private equity, branding & marketing fields. The Board continues to provide long term direction to the Company and engages actively towards initiatives inputs on the Company’s long-term vision.

Manufacturing operations :

Your Company successfully completed its first IATF surveillance audit in February this year and, over the last one year, has further strengthened its already rigorous process standards in all its areas of operation. This stringent automotive industry standard has given your Company a distinct competitive advantage and has helped gain approvals of major customers. Company had a very successful year in its third year of driving significant automation and technology upgrade in its manufacturing processes, including digitalization. This year, the Company has accelerated its digitization drive in line with Industry 4.0 across its business and operating processes.

Environment, Health and Safety (EHS):

Your Company targets zero injuries and incidents via an active EHS program deployed across all its plant locations and HO. As a part of this program various systems like Air Pollution Control System, Fume Extraction System and Eco Ventilators are in place at all its manufacturing sites. Required safety systems are in place at all sites to maintain high standard of safety and health of employees as well as plant machinery, building and material. Safety Council, comprising of a cross-functional plant teams, as well as third party EHS audits have been instituted to identify, assess and mitigate the risks in the EHS area. Ongoing automation drive is also helping significantly improve the shop floor ergonomics across its plants.

With the onset of global COVID-19 pandemic triggered lockdown across India during latter part of the year, your Company was pro-active in shutting down all of its manufacturing locations and its Mumbai Head Office, in order to safeguard all its employees from the threat of the virus. The Company was one of the first ones to proactively transition to Work from Home for its entire HO staff as well as the plant leadership teams. During the time, the Company also rolled out carefully drafted Standard Operating Procedures and Training Modules for all its locations to safeguard its workforce in these unprecedented times of ‘social distancing’ which are likely to prevail for the foreseeable future. These have been successfully implemented during the start up of all its manufacturing locations in April ’20.

Risk Management :

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) process is embedded in the organization’s working methodologies and decision making process and is aligned to the Company’s Strategic Planning Process. The process involves identification, evaluation, mitigation and review of risks and opportunities both at business and enterprise level.

ERM process is owned by the internal committee consist of functional heads and is a comprehensive process that ensures coverage of major strategic, marketing, finance, people related, environmental, economic and operational risks that could possibly derail achievement of the company’s objectives and goals.

Risk owners, identified for each risk, prepare detailed mitigation plans which are formulated based on projects undertaken and in line with the company’s goals, both short and long term.

ERM framework promotes a risk aware culture with a monthly risk review mechanism in place by individual and cross-functional teams with quarterly reporting of the enterprise risks and mitigation plans to the Audit Committee of the Board.

Sustainability practices :

Your company has in place the process, equipment and know-how to operate each of its facility as a zero discharge facility. In times when the regulatory requirements for the industry we operate in require stringent norms, this is a huge advantage for customers’ need for stability and to have a material producer without any risk of continuity. Your company has been conscious of its environmental sustainability obligations and has an active strategy around reduction in energy needs and switching to clean sources of energy. To this effect, the company has invested in low energy consuming lighting at all its locations and apart from operating its own solar power plant, has actively used wind energy and natural gas to generate power at its own manufacturing units. The clean energy use (from solar, wind) at its plants is 18% of its total energy needs. Company also has plans of increasing the clean energy consumption further to improve upon its carbon footprint.

My report of regarding secretarial audit is to be read along with this letter.

Management’s responsibility:

It is the responsibility of the management of the company to maintain secretarial records, devise proper systems, to ensure compliance with the provisions of all applicable laws and regulations and to ensure that the systems are adequate and operate effectively.

Auditor’s responsibility:

Due to wake of COVID 19 pandemic situation and prevailing nation-wide lockdown we are not able to verify documents and registers maintained by the company physically as required under the Companies Act, 2013 and Secretarial Standards issued by the ICSI. We have relied on Management Declaration for the same.

I believe that audit evidence and information obtained from the company’s management is adequate and appropriate for us to provide a basis of my opinion.

Wherever required, I have obtained the management representation about the compliance of laws, rules, and regulations and happening of events etc.

Disclaimer:

The secretarial audit report is neither an assurance as to the future viability of the company nor the efficiency or effectiveness with which the management has conducted the affairs of the company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF GRP LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of GRP Limited (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2020, the Statement of Profit and Loss (Including Other Comprehensive Income), Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Standalone Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “Standalone Financial Statements”).

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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 2020, and its losses including Other Comprehensive Income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of Standalone financial statement in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on Standalone Financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statement of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statement as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We have determined the matters described below to be the Key Audit Matters to be communicated in our report

1. Disputed Tax liabilities

The Company has material amounts arising from uncertain tax positions including disputes related to Income Tax, Excise Duty and Service Tax, Value Added Tax. These matters involve significant management judgment to determine the possible outcomes.

Refer to Note No. 33 of the standalone financial statements

Auditor’s Response

We obtained details of completed assessments during the year ended 31st March, 2020 from the management, considered the estimates made by the management in respect of tax provisions and possible outcomes of the dispute. Additionally we also considered the effect of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions and matters under dispute as at 31st March 2019 to evaluate whether any changes were required in the managements position on these uncertainties.

2. Ind AS 116

As described in Note 2C “Right of Use Assets” to the standalone financial statements, the Company has adopted Ind AS116 Leases (“Ind AS 116”) in the current year. The application and transition to this accounting standard was a complex exercise and was an area of focus in our audit as the Company had a number of vehicle leases with different contractual terms. Adoption of the standard involved significant judgment and estimates including determination of the discount rates and the lease term as well as transitional adjustments.

Auditor’s Response

Our Audit procedure in adoption of Ind AS 116 included:

  • Assessing and testing new processes and controls in respect of Ind AS 116

  • Assessed the Company’s identification of leases based on the contractual agreements and our knowledge of the business

  • Upon transition as at 1 April 2019:

  • Evaluating the method of transition and related adjustments;

  • Testing completeness of the lease data by reconciling the Company’s operating lease commitments with the data used in computing Right of Use assets and the lease liabilities.

3. Determination of Value inventories at the year ended 31st March, 2020.

As the Country was under lockdown as on 31st March, 2020 the physical verification of stock could not be conducted and the Management has carried out physical verification on resumption of activities at Plant. For valuation of inventories, Net Realizable Value (NRV) as on the date of

43

GRP LIMITED

resumption of operations and sale subsequently has been considered. We considered the value of the inventories as a key audit matter given the relative size of the same in the financial statements and the significant judgments involved in the consideration of factors in determination of realizable value (such as fluctuation of raw materials prices in the market and others).

Auditor’s Response

For the purpose of determination of physical quantity of the inventory as at the year end, the Company has carried out the physical verification after the operations at the respective plants resumed after the lockdown. We have relied upon their report.

We understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls as established by the management in determination of net realizable value of inventory. Assessing the appropriateness of Company’s accounting policy for valuation of inventories and compliance of the policy with the requirements of the prevailing accounting standards.

We considered various factors including the actual selling price prevailing around and subsequent to the year-end, compared the cost of the finished goods with the estimated net realizable value and checked if the finished goods were recorded at net realizable value where the cost was higher than the net realizable value. For the purpose of determination of cost, the Company has considered the prevailing market situation. We have relied upon the records produced by the company in respect of arriving of the Net realizable value.

Based on the above procedures performed, the management’s determination of the net realizable value of the inventory as at the year end and comparison with cost for valuation of inventory is considered to be reasonable.

Other Information

The Company’s Management and Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of other information. The other information includes the information in Annual Report, 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, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

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

The 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 including Other Comprehensive Income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act.

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

In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

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

As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, 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 Companies Act, 2013 as amended, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

44

GRP LIMITED

  • 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 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.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.

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

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

“ANNEXURE B” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF GRP LIMITED

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

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

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements over Financial Reporting of GRP Limited (“the Company”) as of 31[st] March, 2020 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year then ended.

Management Responsibility for the Internal Financial Controls

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

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued by ICAI and the Standards on auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system 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 judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error.

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

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

A company’s internal financial control 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 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

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 standalone financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March, 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 issued by the ICAI.

1.3 Summary of Significant Accounting policies

  • (A) Property, Plant and Equipment

Tangible assets:

An item of property, plant and equipment that qualifies as an asset is measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, items of property, plant and equipment are carried at its cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other non refundable purchase taxes or levies, directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Expenses directly attributable to new manufacturing facility during its construction period including borrowing costs are capitalized, if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure related to plans, designs and drawings of buildings or plant and machinery is capitalized under relevant heads of property, plant and equipment if the recognition criteria are met.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Capital work in progress and Capital advances:

Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Advances given towards acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.

Depreciation:

Depreciation on assets is provided on straight line method for the period for which the assets have been used as under:

  • (a) Depreciation on assets is provided over the useful life of assets as prescribed under schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 2020

Intangible Assets and Amortisation:

Intangible Assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. If the expected useful life of the asset is significantly different from previous estimates, the amortisation period is changed accordingly. Gain or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an intangible asset are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and recognized as income or expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The period of amortisation is as under :

Asset Period of amortisation
Computer Software 6years
Copyrights 10years
Trademark 10years

(B) Finance Costs:

Borrowing cost includes interest, amortization of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.

Borrowing costs, if any, directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalised, all other borrowing costs are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period in which they are incurred.

(C) 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 for its business, is classified as investment property. Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs and wherever applicable its borrowing 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 charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period in which they are incurred.

Investment properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Category
Useful life Basis for charging Depreciation
Offce Building 60 Life asprescribed under Schedule-II of the Companies Act, 2013

Though the company measures investment property using cost based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the note 2D. Fair values are determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an external independent valuer.

(D) Impairment of non-financial assets - property, plant and equipment and Intangible Assets:

The Company assesses at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that any property, plant and equipment and intangible assets or group of assets, called cash generating units (CGU) may be impaired. If any such indication exists the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to determine the extent of impairment, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent, asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount.

(E) Government Grants and Subsidy:

Special capital incentive and subsidy received from the Government for setting up or expansion of an industrial undertaking in undeveloped area of State, is credited to Special capital incentive and subsidy account under Capital Reserve Account.

(F) Tax Expenses:

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax :

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit entitlement is recognised in accordance with the Guidance Note on “Accounting for credit available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income-tax Act, 1961” issued by ICAI. MAT credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. At each balance sheet date

56

GRP LIMITED

(` in lakhs)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 2020

the company re-assesses MAT credit assets to the extent they become reasonably certain or virtually certain of realisation, as the case may be and adjusts the same accordingly.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under the Income Tax Act 1961.

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

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

(G) Inventories:

Items of inventories are measured at lower of cost or net realisable value after providing for obsolescence , if any. Cost of Inventories comprises of cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing them to their respective present location and condition. Cost of raw materials, stores & spares, packing materials are determined on weighted average basis. However raw materials are written down to realisable value only if the cost of the related finished goods is not expected to recover the cost of raw materials.

Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of work in progress and finished goods is determined on absorption costing method which include cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

(H) Financial Instruments:

1 Financial Assets

a Initial recognition and measurement:

All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition.

b Subsequent measurement

I Financial assets carried at amortised cost

A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

  • II Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

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

III Financial assets at fair value through proft or loss

A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.

  • c Impairment of fnancial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company uses ‘Expected Credit Loss’ (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument)

57

GRP LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 2020

(` in lakhs)

For trade receivables the Company applies ‘simplified approach’ which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward looking estimates are analysed.

For other assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.

2 Financial Liabilities

a Initial recognition and measurement:

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and in case of loans and borrowings, net of directly attributable cost. Cost of recurring nature are directly recognised in profit or loss as finance cost.

b Subsequent measurement:

Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

3 Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses various derivative financial instruments such as forwards and options to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are also subsequently measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as other financial assets when the fair value is positive and as other financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to Statement of Profit and Loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges which is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and later to Statement of Profit and Loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial assets or non-financial liability.

4 Derecognition of fnancial instruments

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(I) Fair Value:

The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

  • in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

Level 1 — quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period and discloses the same.

(J) Investment in Subsidiary and Associate Companies:

The Company has elected to recognize its investments in subsidiary and associate companies at cost in accordance with the option available in Ind AS 27, ‘Separate Financial Statements’. The details of such investments are given in Note 3.

(K) Revenue Recognition:

  • (i) Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Generally, control is transferred upon shipment of goods to the customer or when the goods are made available to the customer, provided transfer of title to the customer occurs and the Company has not retained any significant risks of ownership or future obligations with respect to the goods shipped.

Revenue from rendering of services is recognised over time by measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of performance obligations at the reporting period.

Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration which the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring distinct goods or services to a customer as specified in the contract, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example taxes and duties collected on behalf of the Government). Consideration is generally due upon satisfaction of performance obligations and a receivable is recognized when it becomes unconditional.

  • (iii) Credits on account of Duty drawback and other benefits, which are due to be received with reasonable certainty, are accrued upon completion of exports.

  • (iv) Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.

  • (L) Foreign currency transactions and translation:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalized as cost of assets.

(M) Employee Benefits:

Short Term Employee Benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits. Expense in respect of other short term benefits is recognized on the basis of the amount paid or payable for the period during which services are rendered by the employee.

  • (ii) Defined Benefit Plans:

  • (a) Gratuity:

The Company pays gratuity to the employees who have completed five years of service with the Company at the time of resignation/superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15 days salary for every completed year of service as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.

(` in lakhs)

The gratuity liability amount is contributed to the approved gratuity fund formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees. The gratuity fund has been approved by respective Income Tax authorities.

The liability in respect of gratuity and other post-employment benefits is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method and spread over the period during which the benefit is expected to be derived from employees’ services.

Re-measurement of defined benefit plans in respect of post-employment and other long term benefits are charged to the Other Comprehensive Income.

(b) Leave Encashment:

Provision for leave encashment, which is a defined benefit, is made based on actuarial valuation done by an independent agency of notified actuaries by using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial Gains / Losses, if any are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

(N) Lease:

The Company, as a lessee, recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.

The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the rightof-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The rightof-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.

The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate.

For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(O) Impact of COVID 19:

The Company continues to regularly assess the business and economic financial impact of Covid-19. While there has been an impact on account of lost sales during the lockdown, restarting costs and increased expenses disproportionate to reduced incomes, the same which started towards the end of FY 19-20 have continued into FY 20-21.

Provisions: Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and there is a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation. provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the Balance sheet date and are not discounted to its present value.

Contingent Liabilities: Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

Contingent Assets: Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.

(S) Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash-flow statement comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less.

(T) Earnings Per Share:

The company reports basic and diluted earning per share (EPS) in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standard specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. The Basic EPS has been computed by dividing the income available to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the accounting year. The diluted EPS has been computed using the weighted average number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares outstanding during the end of the year.

1.4 Key accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

a) Depreciation/amortisation and useful lives of property, plant and equipment/intangible assets

Property, plant and equipment/intangible assets are depreciated/amortised over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account their estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation/ amortisation to be provided during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company’s historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation/ amortisation for future periods is revised if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

b) Provisions

Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of the liability require the application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions and liabilities are reviewed regularly and revised to take account of changing facts and circumstances.

c) Defined benefit obligation

The costs of providing pensions and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 ‘Employee benefits’ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employees’ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 35, ‘Employee benefits’.

d) Income Tax:

The Company’s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer Note 31).

e) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Company’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

1.5 Recent Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standard or amendments to the existing standards. There is no such notification which would have been applicable from April 1, 2020.

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) through Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2019 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, has notified Ind AS 116 Leases which replaces the existing lease standard, Ind AS 17 Leases and other interpretations. Ind AS 116 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. It introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees.

(` in lakhs)

The company has adopted Ind AS 116, effective annual reporting period beginning April 1st, 2019 and applied the standard to its leases, prospectively using the prospective approach.

For transition, the company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to leases which are expiring within 12 months from the date of transition by class of asset and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value on a lease-by-lease basis. The company has also used the practical expedient provided by the standard when applying Ind AS 116 to leases previously classified as operating leases under Ind AS 17 and therefore, has not reassessed whether a contract, is or contains a lease, at the date of initial application, relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous, applying Ind AS 37 immediately before the date of initial application as an alternative to performing an impairment review, excluded initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application and used hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease. The company has used a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.

On transition, the company recognised a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-to-use asset is recognised from 1[st] April, 2019 by using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate on remaining Lease. Accordingly, a right-to-use asset of 186.88 lakhs and lease liability of 186.88 lakhs has been recognised.

ii Employer’s Contribution to Superannuation Fund 26.94 24.82

B Defined Benefit Plans

Disclosure Statement as Per Indian Accounting Standard 19

Para 139 (a) Characteristics of defined benefit plan

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded). The company’s defined benefit gratuity plan is a final salary plan for employees, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund. The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.

Para 139 (b) Risks associated with defined benefit plan

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the Following Risks:

Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of asset.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan’s liability.

Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on Government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching (ALM) Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have any longevity risk.

Concentration Risk: Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

Para 139 (c) Characteristics of defined benefit plans

During the year, there were no plan amendments, curtailments and settlements.

Para 147 (a)

A separate trust fund is created to manage the Gratuity plan and the contributions towards the trust fund is done as guided by rule 103 of Income Tax Rules, 1962.

The sensitivity analysis have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet.

There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.

c) Other Price Risks:

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market traded price. Other price risk arises from financial assets such as investments in equity instruments. Company has invested in unquoted Equity Instruments and hence its exposure to change in market value is minimal.

2) Credit Risk:

Credit risk refers to a risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligation resulting in a financial loss to the Company. Credit risk primarily arises from financial asset such as trade receivables and Derivative financial instruments and other balances with banks, loans and other receivables. The Company exposure to credit risk is disclosed in note 6, 7, 8 and 9. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with counterparties that have sufficient credit rating. The Company’s exposure and credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transaction is reasonably spread amongst the counterparties.

Credit risk arising from investment in derivative financial instrument and other balances with bank is limited and there is no collateral held against these because the counterparties are banks and recognised financial institution with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.

The average credit period on sale of products and services is maximum of 60-90 days. Credit risk arising from trade receivables is managed accordance with Company’s established policy, procedures, and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of Customer is assessed and accordingly individual credit limit is defined. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the fact that customer base is large.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TO THE MEMBERS OF GRP LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of GRP Limited (herein after referred to as “Holding Company”) and its subsidiaries (Holding company and its subsidiaries together referred as “the Group”) and its Joint venture , which comprise the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2020, Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (Including Other Comprehensive Income), Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “Consolidated Financial Statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Consolidated 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the Consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at 31st March 2020, and its Consolidated losses including Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated changes in equity and its Consolidated Cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of Consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and its Joint venture in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on Consolidated Financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statement of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statement as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We have determined the matters described below to be the Key Audit Matters to be communicated in our report.

1. Disputed Tax liabilities

The Group has material amounts arising from uncertain tax positions including disputes related to Income Tax, Excise Duty and Service Tax, Value Added Tax. These matters involve significant management judgment to determine the possible outcomes.

Refer to Note No. 34 of the consolidated financial statements

Auditor’s Response

We obtained details of completed assessments during the year ended 31st March 2020 from the management, considered the estimates made by the management in respect of tax provisions and possible outcomes of the dispute. Additionally we also considered the effect of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions and matters under dispute as at 31st March 2019 to evaluate whether any changes were required in the management’s position on these uncertainties.

2. Ind AS 116

As described in Note 2C “Right of Use Asset” to the consolidated financial statements, the Group has adopted Ind AS116 Leases (“Ind AS 116”) in the current year. The application and transition to this accounting standard was a complex exercise and was an area of focus in our audit as the Group had a number of vehicle leases with different contractual terms. Adoption of the standard involved significant judgment and estimates including determination of the discount rates and the lease term as well as transitional adjustments.

Auditor’s Response

Our Audit procedure in adoption of Ind AS 116 included:

  • Assessing and testing new processes and controls in respect of Ind AS 116;

  • Assessed the Group’s identification of leases based on the contractual agreements and our knowledge of the business

  • Upon transition as at 1st April 2019:

  • Evaluating the method of transition and related adjustments;

  • Testing completeness of the lease data by reconciling the Group’s operating lease commitments with the data used in computing Right of Use assets and the lease liabilities.

GRP LIMITED

3. Determination of Value inventories at the year ended 31st March 2020.

As the Country was under lockdown as on 31st March, 2020 the physical verification of stock could not be conducted and the Management has carried out physical verification on resumption of activities at Plant. For valuation of inventories, Net Realizable Value (NRV) as on the date of resumption of operations and sale subsequently has been considered. We considered the value of the inventories as a key audit matter given the relative size of the same in the financial statements and the significant judgments involved in the consideration of factors in determination of realizable value (such as fluctuation of raw materials prices in the market and others).

Auditor’s Response

For the purpose of determination of physical quantity of the inventory as at the year end, the Group has carried out the physical verification after the operations at the respective plants resumed after the lockdown. We have relied upon their report.

We understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls as established by the management in determination of net realizable value of inventory. Assessing the appropriateness of Group’s accounting policy for valuation of inventories and compliance of the policy with the requirements of the prevailing accounting standards.

We considered various factors including the actual selling price prevailing around and subsequent to the year-end, compared the cost of the finished goods with the estimated net realizable value and checked if the finished goods were recorded at net realizable value where the cost was higher than the net realizable value. For the purpose of determination of cost, the Group has considered the prevailing market situation. We have relied upon the records produced by the Group in respect of arriving of the Net realizable value.

Based on the above procedures performed, the management’s determination of the net realizable value of the inventory as at the year end and comparison with cost for valuation of inventory is considered to be reasonable.

Other Information

The Holding Company’s Management and Board of Directors is responsible for the Preparation of other information. The other information includes the information in Annual Report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information 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, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

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

The Holding Company’s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the Consolidated financial position, Consolidated financial performance including Other Comprehensive Income, Consolidated changes in equity and Consolidated cash flows of the Group and its Joint venture in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian 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 venture are responsible for 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 Consolidated Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the respective management and Board of Directors of the Companies included in the Group and of its Joint Venture are responsible for assessing the ability of each of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The respective Board of Directors of each of the Company included in the Group and its joint venture are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

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

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

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

86

GRP LIMITED

We also:

  • I dentify 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 Companies Act, 2013 as amended, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Holding Company and its subsidiary and joint venture has adequate internal financial controls system 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 these assumptions. 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 as well as its Joint Venture 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.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.

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

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

“ANNEXURE A” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS OF GRP LIMITED

(Referred to in paragraph 1 (f) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ of our report of even date)

Report on the Internal Financial Controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”).

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements of GRP Limited (“herein after referred to as “Holding Company”) and its Subsidiary Company and Joint Venture as of 31st March 2020 in conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year then ended.

Management Responsibility for the Internal Financial Controls

The Respective Board of Directors of Holding Company and its Subsidiary Company and Joint Venture are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls with reference to Financial Statements based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Respective Companies considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) 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 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 Company’s internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued by ICAI and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to consolidated financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Consolidated Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Holding Company’s and Subsidiary Company and a Joint Venture internal financial controls system with reference to consolidated financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

A company’s internal financial control with reference to consolidated financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Financial Statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A 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

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

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Holding Company and its Subsidiary and Joint Venture has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March, 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 issued by the ICAI.

1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

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

1.1 Basis of preparation and presentation of financial statements:

These financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of the Group prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS’) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, as amended from time to time.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as stated in the accounting policies set out below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently over all the periods presented in these financial statements. These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is also its functional currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest lakhs, except when otherwise stated.

  • 1.2 Current / Non-current classification:

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

1.3 Principles of consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements relate to GRP Limited (‘the Parent Company’) and its subsidiaries and joint ventures. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the following basis:

  • a The financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries are combined on a line by line basis by adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, incomes, expenses and cash flows, after fully eliminating intra-group balances and intra-group transactions.

  • b Profits or losses resulting from intra-group transactions that are recognised in assets, such as inventory and property, plant & equipment, are eliminated in full.

  • c Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiary.

  • d Non Controlling Interest’s share of profit / loss of consolidated subsidiaries for the year is identified and adjusted against the income of the group in order to arrive at the net income attributable to shareholders of the Company.

  • e Non Controlling Interest’s share of net assets of consolidated subsidiaries is identified and presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet separate from liabilities and the equity of the Company’s shareholders.

  • f Investment in Joint Ventures has been accounted under the equity method as per Ind AS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.

1.4 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(A) Property, Plant and Equipment

Tangible assets:

An item of property, plant and equipment that qualifies as an asset is measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, items of property, plant and equipment are carried at its cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises of its purchase price including import duties and other non refundable purchase taxes or levies, directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. Expenses directly attributable to new manufacturing facility during its construction period including borrowing costs are capitalized, if the recognition criteria are met. Expenditure related to plans, designs

(` in lakhs)

GRP LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 2020

and drawings of buildings or plant and machinery is capitalized under relevant heads of property, plant and equipment if the recognition criteria are met.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Capital work in progress and Capital advances:

Cost of assets not ready for intended use, as on the Balance Sheet date, is shown as capital work in progress. Advances given towards acquisition of property, plant and equipment outstanding at each Balance Sheet date are disclosed as Other Non-Current Assets.

Depreciation:

Depreciation on assets is provided on straight line method for the period for which the assets have been used as under:

  • (a)

  • Depreciation on assets is provided over the useful life of assets as prescribed under schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

  • (b) Plant and machinery which have worked for more than single shift, depreciation is provided for accordingly as per rate prescribed in schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

  • (c) Leasehold land is amortised over the period of lease.

Intangible Assets and Amortisation:

Intangible Assets are stated at acquisition cost, net of accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. If the expected useful life of the asset is significantly different from previous estimates, the amortisation period is changed accordingly. Gain or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of an intangible asset are determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and recognized as income or expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The period of amortisation is as under :

Asset Period of amortisation
Computer Software 6years
Copyrights 10years
Trademark 10years
Design & Development 5years

(B) Finance Costs:

Borrowing cost includes interest, amortization of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.

Borrowing costs, if any, directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalised. All other borrowing costs are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period in which they are incurred.

(C) 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 for its business, is classified as investment property. Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs and wherever applicable its borrowing 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 charged to the statement of profit and loss for the period in which they are incurred.

Investment properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Category Useful life Basis for charging Depreciation
Offce Building 60 Life as prescribed under Schedule-II of the Companies Act, 2013

Though the Group measures investment property using cost based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the note 2D. Fair values are determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an external independent valuer.

(D) Impairment of non-financial assets - property, plant and equipment and intangible assets:

The Group assesses at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that any property, plant and equipment and intangible assets or group of assets, called Cash Generating Units (CGU) may be impaired. If any such indication exists the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to determine the extent of impairment, if any. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs.

98

GRP LIMITED

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 2020

(` in lakhs)

An impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent, asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount.

(E) Government Grants and Subsidy:

Special capital incentive and subsidy received from the Government for setting up or expansion of an industrial undertaking in undeveloped area of State, is credited to Special capital incentive and subsidy account under Capital Reserve Account.

(F) Tax Expenses:

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current tax:

Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable in respect of taxable profit for a period. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Current tax is measured using tax rates that have been enacted by the end of reporting period for the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities.

Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit entitlement is recognised in accordance with the Guidance Note on “Accounting for credit available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income-tax Act, 1961” issued by ICAI. MAT credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Group will pay normal income tax during the specified period. At each balance sheet date the Group re-assesses MAT credit assets to the extent they become reasonably certain or virtually certain of realisation, as the case may be and adjusts the same accordingly.

Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax losses can be utilized.

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

Presentation of current and deferred tax:

Current and deferred tax are recognized as income or an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income, in which case, the current and deferred tax income/expense are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

(G) Inventories:

Items of inventories are measured at lower of cost or net realisable value after providing for obsolescence , if any. Cost of Inventories comprises of cost of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing them to their respective present location and condition. Cost of raw materials, stores & spares, packing materials are determined on weighted average basis. However raw materials are written down to realisable value only if the cost of the related finished goods is not expected to recover the cost of raw materials.

Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of work in progress and finished goods is determined on absorption costing method which include cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

(H) Financial Instruments:

1 Financial Assets

a Initial recognition and measurement:

All financial assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair value on initial recognition.

b Subsequent measurement I Financial assets carried at amortised cost A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. II Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. III Financial assets at fair value through proft or loss A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss. c Impairment of fnancial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Group uses ‘Expected Credit Loss’ (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of financial assets other than those measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

  • The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or

  • Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument)

For trade receivables Group applies ‘simplified approach’ which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Group uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward looking estimates are analysed.

For other assets, the Group uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.

2 Financial Liabilities

a Initial recognition and measurement:

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and in case of loans and borrowings, net of directly attributable cost. Cost of recurring nature are directly recognised in profit or loss as finance cost.

  • b Subsequent measurement:

Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

3 Derivative Financial Instruments

The Group uses various derivative financial instruments such as currency swaps and forwards to mitigate the risk of changes in interest rates and exchange rates. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are also subsequently measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to Statement of Profit and Loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges which is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and later to Statement of Profit and Loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial assets or non-financial liability.

4 Derecognition of fnancial instruments

The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Group’s Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(I) Fair Value:

The Group measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies mentioned above. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • in the principal market for the asset or liability, or

  • in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels, described as follows, the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

Level 1 — quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

  • Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization at the end of each reporting period and discloses the same.

(J) Revenue Recognition:

  • (i) Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Generally, control is transferred upon shipment of goods to the customer or when the goods are made available to the customer, provided transfer of title to the customer occurs and the Group has not retained any significant risks of ownership or future obligations with respect to the goods shipped.

Revenue from rendering of services is recognised over time by measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of performance obligations at the reporting period.

Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration which the Group expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring distinct goods or services to a customer as specified in the contract, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example taxes and duties collected on behalf of the Government). Consideration is generally due upon satisfaction of performance obligations and a receivable is recognized when it becomes unconditional.

  • (ii) Income from Power generation is accounted on the basis of certification of Gujarat Electricity Development Authority.

  • (iii) Credits on account of Duty drawback and other benefits, which are due to be received with reasonable certainty, are accrued upon completion of exports.

  • (iv) Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.

  • (v) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.

(K) Foreign currency transactions and translation:

Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalized as cost of assets.

(L) Employees Benefits:

Short Term Employee Benefits:

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short term employee benefits. Expense in respect of other short term benefits is recognized on the basis of the amount paid or payable for the period during which services are rendered by the employee.

Post Employment Employee Benefits :

  • (i) Defined Contribution Plans :

(a) Provident Fund:

The Group makes specified monthly contribution to statutory provident fund in accordance with the Employees Provident Fund & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, which is a defined contribution plan and contribution paid or payable is recognized as an expense in the period in which services are rendered by the employee.

(b) Superannuation:

The Parent Company has Superannuation Plan for its executives - a defined contribution plan. The Parent Company makes annual contribution of the covered employees’ salary, subject to maximum of ` 1.50 lakh per employee, for the executive opting for the benefit. The plan is managed by a Trust and the funds are invested with Life Insurance Corporation of India under its Group Superannuation Scheme. Annual contributions as specified under the Trust deed are paid to the Life Insurance Corporation of India and recognised as an expense of the year in which the liability is incurred.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans:

(a) Gratuity:

The Parent Company pays gratuity to the employees who have completed five years of service with the Company at the time of resignation/superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15 days salary for every completed year of service as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.

The gratuity liability amount is contributed to the approved gratuity fund formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees. The gratuity fund has been approved by respective Income Tax authorities.

The liability in respect of gratuity and other post-employment benefits is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method and spread over the period during which the benefit is expected to be derived from employees’ services.

Re-measurement of defined benefit plans in respect of post-employment and other long term benefits are charged to the Other Comprehensive Income. For Subsidiaries & Joint Venture gratuity benefit are provided on the basis of management estimate.

(b) Leave Encashment:

Provision for leave encashment, which is a defined benefit, is made based on actuarial valuation done by an independent agency of notified actuaries by using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial Gains / Losses, if any are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. For Subsidiaries & Joint Venture gratuity benefit are provided on the basis of management estimate.

(M) Lease:

The Group, as a lessee, recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.

The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.

The Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses incremental borrowing rate

For short-term and low value leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(N) Impact of COVID 19:

The Group continues to regularly assess the business and economic financial impact of Covid-19. While there has been an impact on account of lost sales during the lockdown, restarting costs and increased expenses disproportionate to reduced incomes, the same which started towards the end of FY 2019-20 have continued into FY 2020-21. The impact of the same on the profits of the Group shall be computed for inclusion in fiscal year 2020-21. The Group continues to monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.

(O) Research and Development:

Revenue expenditure on Research and Development is charged in the period in which it is incurred. Capital Expenditure for Research and Development is capitalised when commissioned and included in the Plant, Property and Equipment and depreciated in accordance with the policies stated for Property, Plant and Equipment.

(P) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets:

Provisions: Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and there is a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation. provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the Balance sheet date and are not discounted to its present value.

Contingent Liabilities: Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

Contingent Assets: Contingent Assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.

(Q) Segment reporting:

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the Group. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Group.

(R) Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash-flow statement comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less.

(S) Earnings Per Share:

The Group reports basic and diluted earning per share (EPS) in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standard specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. The Basic EPS has been computed by dividing the income available to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the accounting year. The diluted EPS has been computed using the weighted average number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares outstanding during the end of the year.

1.5 Key accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

a) Depreciation/amortisation and useful lives of property, plant and equipment/intangible assets

Property, plant and equipment/intangible assets are depreciated/amortised over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account their estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation/ amortisation to be provided during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Group’s historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation/ amortisation for future periods is revised if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

b) Provisions

Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of the liability require the application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions and liabilities are reviewed regularly and revised to take account of changing facts and circumstances.

c) Defined benefit obligation

The costs of providing pensions and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 ‘Employee benefits’ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employees’ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 36, ‘Employee benefits’.

d) Income Tax:

The Group’s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer Note 32).

e) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash loss rates. The Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) through Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2019 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, has notified Ind AS 116 Leases which replaces the existing lease standard, Ind AS 17 Leases and other interpretations. Ind AS 116 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. It introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees.

The Group has adopted Ind AS 116, effective annual reporting period beginning 1st April 2019 and applied the standard to its leases, prospectively using the prospective approach.

For transition, the Group has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to leases which are expiring within 12 months from the date of transition by class of asset and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value on a lease-by-lease basis. The Group has also used the practical expedient provided by the standard when applying Ind AS 116 to leases previously classified as operating leases under Ind AS 17 and therefore, has not reassessed whether a contract, is or contains a lease, at the date of initial application, relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous, applying Ind AS 37 immediately before the date of initial application as an alternative to performing an impairment review, excluded initial direct costs from measuring the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application and used hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease. The Group has used a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.

On transition, the Group recognised a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-to-use asset is recognised from 01-Apr-2019 by using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate on remaining Lease. Accordingly, a right-to-use asset of 186.88 lakhs and lease liability of 186.88 lakhs has been recognised.

36 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS :

As per Indian Accounting Standard 19 “Employee benefits”, the disclosures as defined are given below :

The Group has various schemes for long term benefits such as provident fund, superannuation, gratuity and leave encashment. The Group’s defined contribution plans are Employees’ Provident fund and Pension Scheme (under the provision of the Employees’ Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952) since the Group has no further obligation beyond making the contributions.

A Defined Contribution Plans

Contribution to Defined Contribution Plans, recognised as expense for the year is as under

Year ended Year ended
31-03-2020 31-03-2019
i Employer’s Contribution to Provident & Pension Fund 262.14 250.54
ii Employer’s Contribution to Superannuation Fund 26.94 24.82

B Defined Benefit Plans

Disclosure Statement as Per Indian Accounting Standard 19

Para 139 (a) Characteristics of defined benefit plan

The Group has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India (funded). The Group’s defined benefit gratuity plan is a final salary plan for employees, which requires contributions to be made to a separately administered fund. The fund is managed by a trust which is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are responsible for the administration of the plan assets and for the definition of the investment strategy.

Para 139 (b) Risks associated with defined benefit plan

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the Following Risks:

I nterest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of asset.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan’s liability.

Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on Government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching (ALM) Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have any longevity risk.

Concentration Risk : Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

The sensitivity analysis have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet.

There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
