CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

Dear Shareholders,

I'm pleased to inform you that your company has achieved a 20% growth in terms of top line during the last financial year.

This gives us immense confidence in our R&D roadmap which includes new products being developed and already developed products being commercialised. With new projects and opportunities coming our way in the Railways we continue to be heavily invested in technology that is both created and manufactured in India.

Like the rest of the world, we too, have been negatively affected by the pandemic, which has resulted in a slow first quarter, however we have survived the quarantine period and we are confident to recover from here onwards.

On behalf of the entire Management Team, I would like to thank you for your continued belief and trust in Hind Rectifiers Ltd.

Best Wishes.

S. K. Nevatia Chairman & Managing Director

On account or the spread of COVID 19 virus, the Central / State Government had imposed a Lockdown in the month of March, 2020 leading to shut down of the Company's manufacturing facilities and operations. The Company has resumed its operations in a phased manner as per directives from the Government and at present, Nashik and Dehradun plants are working with full capacity, however, Mumbai plant is working with limited operations. The Company has evaluated impact of this pandemic on its business operations and based on its review of current indicators of future economic conditions, there is no significant impact on its financial results as at 31st March 2020 however the impact assessment of COVID-19 is a continuing process given the uncertainties associated with its nature and duration and accordingly, the impact may be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial results. The Company believes that the pandemic is not likely to impact the recover ability of the carrying value of its assets. The Company will continue to monitor any material changes to future economic conditions.

Demand from Railways continues to be good and the Company has healthy order bookings for the financial year 2020-21.

COVID-19

In the last month of Financial Year 2019-20, the COVID-19 pandemic developed rapidly into a global crisis, forcing governments to enforce lock-downs of all economic activity. For the Company, the focus immediately shifted to ensuring the health and well-being of all employees. In view of the announcement made by State/Central Government from time to time operations of the Mumbai plant was suspended w.e.f. 19th March, 2020 and operation at Nashik & Dehradun Plants was suspended w.e.f. 23rd March, 2020.

Further, considering the relaxation given by the Government, operations at Nashik Plant was started w.e.f. 27th April, 2020 and of Dehradun plant w.e.f. 6th May, 2020. Initially, both the plants were working with the capacity of 20% to 25%. Dehradun and Nashik Plants were fully operative from the 25th May, 2020 and 9th June, 2020 respectively. The Company is considering various possibilities for utilization of better capacity at Nashik as well Dehradun plants. Operations at Mumbai plant was started with the capacity of 10% with effect from 8th June, 2020.

In view of lockdown declared by Government, many of the employees are working from home only and ensures that required operations are not affected adversely.

Due to the suspension of the operations in all the plants, performance of the first quarter may affect adversely but the Company is of the view that it will be able to recover the same in balance three quarters, if lockdown is not further extended.

Demand for the Company’s product is expected to be stable and there is no non fulfillment of any commitment by any of the party which will have a significant impact on the performance of the Company.

SECTION E: PRINCIPLE-WISE PERFORMANCE

Principle 1: Businesses should conduct and govern themselves with Ethics, transparency and Accountability.

The Company believes that a Company without ethics is like a body without a soul. Further, it is firmly believed that for a successful and sustainable business, a strong foundation of ethical corporate citizenship and establishment of good corporate culture is essential.

The Company is committed to operating its business ethically in a manner such that all stakeholders i.e. investors, creditors, distributors, customers, employees, and even competitors, the governments and society at large, dealt within a fair manner. The Company has always believed in adhering to the best governance practices to ensure the protection of interests of all stakeholders of the Company in tandem with the healthy growth of the Company.

The core value of the Company’s ethical policy and practices are trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, and caring.

The Company believes that the ethical behavior of the Company is predicted by the ethical behavior of its owners, directors, managers, and employees towards its stakeholders i.e. investors, creditors, distributors, customers, employees, the governments, and society at large.

The measurement of ethical behavior revolves around

  • iii. Raising that trust and confidence of stakeholders in the way the Company operates

  • iv. Understanding and discharging societal responsibility

  • v. Long term thinking

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

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

these products. Consumption of energy is not significant.

  • (b) Reduction during usage by consumers (energy, water) has been achieved since the previous year?

As above-mentioned products are used for a variety of purposes and by a large number of consumers, it is not feasible to identify reduction of resource usage by the consumers.

  1. Procedures in place for sustainable sourcing (including transportation) and percentage of inputs sourced sustainably.

We do have a procedure for sustainable sourcing, usually, there are two to three vendors for a single item but depending upon their quality of the product, as well as supply credentials & pricing the order, is placed & in order to reduce the logistics cost, materials are clubbed together in order to utilize the full volume of the vehicle.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENTS

The company caters to the Indian Railways and manufacturing industry with strong legacy and brand image in both sectors. Railways continue to be primary focus area for business volume. Financial Year 2019-20 was an outstanding year for our Railway business with enlarged product range thanks to the help of internal R & D efforts. Considering the forecast of Indian Railways and our product profile, we expect the same business trend in the coming year.

We have not overlooked sustainable support on industrial business projects in power sector and the new year augurs well with good enquiries from many domestic clients.

OPPORTUNITIES & THREATS

The company has a strong brand and leadership position in the market for the equipment of three phase locomotives and LHB coaches along with the pollution control and environmental protection equipment with updated technology.

Establishment of our new manufacturing facility with world-class setup has created added confidence to our customer and attracted their interest towards us for meeting their bulk requirements with best quality. Vigorous focus on R & D has enhanced our strength for stepping into new projects in a bigger way.

Changing the face of Indian Railways technology has been effectively matched by our R & D, however, the diminishing trend of established products is a big threat in consistency of order intake. The present global threat of COVID-19 remains as unknown threat for normal business activity.

OUTLOOK

The government has aggressively targeted more electrification of routes and modernization of Railways facilities. Existing production units of Railways have been asked to manufacture electric locos instead of diesel due to increased demands of Railways. However, COVID-19 and lockdown for over 3 months will affect the current year and delay the progress of ongoing projects any may cut down the requirements for the financial year.

RISK & CONCERNS

Most of the bigger projects in industrial and major tenders in Railway segments are getting shifted to second half of the financial year due to COVID-19. This will surely create an imbalance in order to intake and execution throughout the year. Pandemic has created its new set of planning obstacles for supply chain management. Hopefully, when pandemic subsides in next 2/3 months, we may have an opportunity to recoup shortfalls to some extent with extra efforts in the second half of the year.

Working fund flow is likely to be constrained due to expanded capacity, delayed/ stretched fund inflow from bigger projects and orders from Railways coupled with very conservative financial support from Banks due to COVID-19 is visualized as major concern for the current year.

SEGMENT WISE PRODUCT WISE PERFORMANCE

Specialized products for specific applications like automobiles, pollution control and electrochemical industries are well stabilized in the industrial segment. Ability of making different range and custom-built design is an added advantage to patronize our brand.

Variety of newly developed products and upcoming products under R & D form strategic part of major revenue making source in Railway segment.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS & THEIR ADEQUACY

The company continues to follow effective system of internal control ensuring the accurate, reliable and timely preparation of accounting information, securing the assets and interest of the company and compliance of various laws and regulations.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

The company’s financial performance has improved considerably during the financial year with effective monitoring of

74

62nd Annual Report 2019-2020 hirect.com

==> picture [117 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

operational cost. The Company is continuously putting efforts to improve efficiency to achieve better results.

DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES / INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

Attracting and retaining competent talent, while focusing on training needs and development is absolutely imperative for an emerging dynamic business of our type. The Company recognizes that human resources are an extremely important and critical as long term investment. The company’s top management honours the dignity of each individual irrespective of the position and highly values the feelings and emotions of the people.

Industrial relations with the Union are cordial and peaceful.

PERFORMANCE REVIEW

During the financial year ended 31st March, 2020, revenue from operations increased to 29962.05 lakhs as against 25514.29 lakhs in the financial year ended 31st March, 2019 resulting in growth of 17.43%.

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

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

  1. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit or loss 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 Ind AS specified under Section 133 of the Act.

ANNEXURE B TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT OF EVEN DATE TO THE MEMBERS OF HIND RECTIFIERS LIMITED ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH, 2020

Independent Auditor's report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

  1. In conjunction with our audit of the financial statements of Hind Rectifiers Limited (“the Company”) as at and for the year ended 31st March, 2020, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting (IFCoFR) of the Company as of that date.

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

  1. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (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 the Company's business, including adherence to Company's policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.

  2. Auditors' Responsibility

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

  4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the IFCoFR and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of IFCoFR included obtaining an understanding of IFCoFR, 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 financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

  5. 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 IFCoFR.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

  1. A company's IFCoFR 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 IFCoFR 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 over Financial Reporting

  1. Because of the inherent limitations of IFCoFR, 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 IFCoFR to future periods are subject to the risk that IFCoFR may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

  1. In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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.

The Company has adopted Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contract with Customers with effect from 1st April 2018.

The Company's obligation to repair and replace faulty products under standard warranty terms is recognised as a provision.

Refer Note 56 of the Financial Statements.

Sale of Products

Revenue from sale of products is recognised upon satisfaction of performance obligations, i.e. at a point of time, which occurs when the control is transferred to the customer.

Customers obtain control as per the terms of the respective contracts. In determining the transaction price for sale of product, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration, if any. Invoices are issued according to contractual terms and are usually payable as per the credit period agreed with the customer.

Amounts disclosed in the revenue excludes GST.

Sale of services

Services rendered include Servicing, AMC and Erectioning and Commissioning services. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered.

Invoices are issued according to contractual terms and are usually payable as per the credit period agreed with the customer.

Interest income

Interest income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method.

Dividends

Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the right to receive payment is established.

Export Incentives and GST Incentives

Export incentives receivable under various schemes are accounted on accrual basis.

GST Incentives are accounted when the amount of incentive is certain to be received.

e) Taxes

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted, by the end of the reporting period.

Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in the Statement of Profit and Loss, other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible

90

62nd Annual Report 2019-2020 hirect.com

==> picture [117 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

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

Minimum Alternate Tax credit is recognised as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. Such asset is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.

f) Property, Plant and Equipment

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

Properties in the course of construction for production or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognised impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and, for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Company's accounting policy. Such properties are classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for their intended use.

The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price (including import duties and non-refundable taxes), any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, and, borrowing cost for qualifying assets (i.e. assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use)

Other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their residual values over their useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

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

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

The Company depreciates its property, plant and equipment over the useful life in the manner prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 and management believe that useful life of assets are same as those prescribed in Scehdule II to the Act.

g) Intangible assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately or developed in-house are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

91

62nd Annual Report 2019-2020 hirect.com

==> picture [117 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. Intangible assets representing cost of software capitalised is amortised over its useful life which is estimated to be a period of five years.

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses on de-recognition are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss under other expenses / other income

h) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.

Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs also include exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs

i) Inventories

Cost of inventories have been computed to include all cost of purchases, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and conditions.

  • i) Raw material is valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is lower. Cost is calculated by applying the weighted average method.

  • ii) Work in progress, Finished Goods and Stock-in-Trade are valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is lower

  • iii) Scrap is valued at estimated selling price.

  • iv) Stores and Spares are valued at lower of cost or net realisable value. Tools and Instruments are valued at book value.

j) Provisions and contingent liabilities

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

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

Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that arise from past events but their existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or where any present obligation cannot be measured in terms of future outflow of resources or where a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made.

When the possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision is made.

k) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits.

l) Employee Benefits

i) Short Term Employee Benefits

All employee benefits payable within twelve months of rendering the service are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.

  • b) In case of Nashik and Dehradun Division it is provided on the basis of actuarial valuation.

Defined Benefit Plans - The present value of the obligation under such plans, is determined based on an actuarial valuation by an independent actuary at the end of each year. In the case of gratuity, which is funded, the fair value of the plan assets is reduced from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plans, to recognise the obligation on net basis.

Remeasurement of net defined benefit liability, which comprises actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any excluding interest), are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income.

iii) Other Long Term Employee Benefits

93

62nd Annual Report 2019-2020 hirect.com

==> picture [117 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

exchange difference arising on such transaction is dealt with in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

  • iii) Transactions completed during the year are adjusted at the prevailing rates.

iv) The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), which is company's functional currency.

o) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potential equity shares.

p) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising from employee benefits, financial assets and contractual rights under insurance contracts, which are specifically exempt from this requirement.

Non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. Interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal company classified as held for sale continue to be recognised.

q) Cash Flows

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, where by net profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a noncash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities are segregated.

r) Provision for Warranty

The Company typically provides warranties for general repairs of defects that existed at the time of sale, as required by law. These assurance-type warranties are accounted for under Ind AS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. Refer to the accounting policy on warranty. In certain contracts, the Company provides warranty for an extended period of time and includes rectification of defects that existed at the time of sale and are normally bundled together with the main contract. Such bundled contracts include two performance obligations because the promises to transfer the goods and services and the provision of service-type warranty are capable of being distinct. Using the relative stand-alone selling price method, a portion of the transaction price is allocated to the service-type warranty and recognised as a liability. Revenue is recognised over the period in which the service-type warranty is provided on a basis appropriate to the nature of the contract and services to be rendered.

Provisions for warranty-related costs are recognised annually on the basis of historical experience. The initial estimate of warranty- related costs is revised annually.

The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company's senior management provides assurance that the Company's financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the company's policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.

A. Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that counter party will not meet it's obligation under a financial instrument or customer contract leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk mainly from trade receivables and other financial assets.

(i) Trade receivables

Customer credit is managed by concerned business manager subject to the Company's established policy procedures and control related to customer credit risk management.

Each outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and if outstanding is above due date the further shipments are controlled and can only be released if there is a proper justification.

The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as medium, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets and their credit worthiness are monitored at periodical intervals.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets.

B. MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of three types of risks – interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk in a fluctuating market environment. Financial instrument affected by market risks includes loans and borrowings, deposits and other financials assets.

The Company has designed risk management frame work to control various risks effectively to achieve the business objectives. This includes identification of risk, its assessment, control and monitoring at timely intervals.

(i) Currency Risk

The Company operates internationally and portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through it's sales and services in overseas and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. The Currency Risk can be majorly divided into two main categories -

  1. Risk of change in Profits due to change in currency rate of Outstanding Trade Payables and Receivables (net of advances); & 2. Risk of increased outflows due to change in currency rate of Other Payables.

Foreign Currency Sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EURO exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company’s profit before tax and cash flows is due to changes in the fair value of Outstanding Trade Payables and Receivables (net of advances) and the effect not on profit but on cash flow is due to Other Payables. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk because the exposure at the end of the reporting period does not reflect the exposure during the year.

(ii) Commodity Price Risk

  • a. The Company is subjected to Commodity Price risk due to the fluctuations in the price of copper. This is procured from domestic suppliers. However, domestic price of the copper is afffected based on the price at the London metal Exchange (LME) and exchange rates. In case copper prices undergo upward / downward revision due to LME or exchange rate, the price difference are adequately covered by the price variation clause of the order.

  • b. Exposure of the company to commodity and commodity risks faced by it throughout the year.

  • Total exposure of the company to commodities in ` 1537.21 Lacs

  • Exposure of the company to various commodities :

  1. In majority of orders, company do have price variation clause (PVC) issued by Indian Electrical and Electronics Manufacturers' Association (IEEMA) which covers all component of cost including commodities and accordingly company do not have any major risk due to fluctuation in commodities price.

(iii) Interest rate risk

The Company manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate of interest on loans and borrowings. To manage this, Company has loans taken from banks which are linked to MCLR rate of the bank, which are variable.

Interest rate sensitivity

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Company’s profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:
