APPEAL TO SHAREHOLDERS

In order to save trees and environment by cutting down the consumption of costly paper habits, the Ministry of Corporate affairs (MCA) has taken a "Green Initiative in the Corporate Governance" by allowing paperless compliance by the Companies through electronic mode including service of notice / documents including Annual Report to be sent by email to its members. In accordance with the Circular No. 17/2011 dated 21.04.2011 and Circular No. 18/2011 dated 29.04.2011 issued by the Ministry, Companies had started the practice of sending various notices and documents, including documents for Annual General Meeting and Annual Report to its shareholders through electronic mode, whose e-mail addresses are registered with the Company. In such case, the company is required to obtain email addresses of its members for sending the notice / documents through email by giving an opportunity to every member to register their email address and changes therein, if any, from time to time with the Company. To be a part of Green Initiative in the Corporate Governance, Indokem Limited has started to send documents like the notices for convening the General Meeting and Annual Reports in electronic form, to the email addresses of those members which are available in the Register of Members of the Company. To support this green initiative of the Government in full measure, members who have not registered their email addresses so far, are requested to register their email addresses in respect of electronic holdings with the Depository through their concerned Depository Participants. Members who hold shares in physical form are requested to register their email addresses to the Company or its Registrar and Share Transfer Agents (RTA).

You are kindly requested to send an email to [email protected] and / or iklsecretarial@gmail. com in order to register your email ID with Name of first holder, Folio No. / DP ID and Client ID. Members are further requested to provide copy of their PAN Card, Aadhar Card, bank details, contact number and address with proof, if there is any change.

On registration, all the communication will be sent to the email ID registered in the Folio No. /DP ID and Client ID to save time and to save trees.

We are sure you would appreciate the "Green Initiative" taken by MCA and as a responsible citizen you will whole heartedly support this initiative.

This move by the Ministry will benefit the society at large through reduction in paper consumption and contribution towards a Greener Environment. It will also ensure prompt receipt of communication and avoid loss in postal transit. We are sure that you would appreciate the "Green Initiative" taken by MCA and Indokem's desire to participate in such initiatives. Please contact the following:

CHAIRMAN'S MESSAGE

My Dear Shareholders,

It is my privilege to present the 55th Annual Report of your company. We have attempted to present the company's information in an all-encompassing format for a deeper and richer understanding of our sustainable journey.

I would now briefly review performance of the Company during the year ended 31st March, 2021. F.Y. 2020-21 (FY21) was a mixed bag for our company. FY21 begun amid the first wave and closed in the first quartile of the second wave of the pandemic striking the country. Besides the severe health challenges, it disrupted our economic momentum and recovery throughout the year, though at a varying extent. We are all living in very uncertain and unprecedented times. The impact of the pandemic on our operations was substantial. We were all under lockdown in the first and last few months of FY21. COVID impact on communities around the world has been devastating. Coming to our financials, the total gross revenue earned by the Company was Rs. 79.24 crores as against total revenue of Rs. 89.61 crores of previous year, which is decrease of 12% as compared to last year. Despite COVID-19 pandemic; your Company has done well which is not reflected in figures. Profit after tax for the year was Rs. 2.96 crore compared to profit after tax of Rs. 0.51 crores in financial year 2019-20. Ushering in FY21 under the shadow of a complete lockdown, we ensured adequate protection of all our assets – people, goodwill, manufacturing facilities, inventory installed equipment base, cash – as our first priority. By mid May 2020, the lockdown restrictions started to be less stringent and geared ourselves to cater to the increased business activities. The recovery started thereafter with sequential increase in demand. In FY21, we worked towards restructuring several of the Company's operations to reduce costs, streamline operations and match capacity with market demand. Responding effectively to the challenges of market cycles has helped us perform steadily during periods of downturns.

We are living in time where various extraordinary changes are taking place around us which is altogether reshaping the way we live and the way we work. Though our inspiring Legendary Founder, Shri. Dharamsey Khatau, is not in amongst us the values he cherished and which have in fact equipped our Company to withstand the test of time - Integrity, Excellence, Humility, Hard work and Larger purpose - continue to guide us as we endeavor strengthening our people, processes and products, keeping in focus what our Company is and ought to be in the years to come.

The Indian chemicals industry stood at US\$ 178 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach US\$ 304 billion by 2025 registering a CAGR of 9.3%. The demand for chemicals is expected to expand by 9% per annum by 2025. The chemical industry is expected to contribute US\$ 300 billion to India's GDP by 2025. Most of the products we use in our life are enabled by chemistry. As a diverse entity, driven by science and technology, our Company is well poised to face the future.

Your Company has also invested in new machineries to manufacture new products range from Ambernath Units. IT system and infrastructure is being continuously monitored and enhanced with any required upgrades. Our major products have received GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification. Company has invested on automation and attractive Packing Material for our products which has shown better results. There is also investment in Quality Control equipment in Laboratory and qualified staff to meet global standards. Company has invested in digitization by purchasing Laptops for the employees working from home, and ensured that work continued despite overall tough times; Company will continue to invest in digitization and modernization. Company has successfully registered maximum of its products under Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC) certification; and has been assessed and received ISO 45001:2008 certification during the year. You would be happy to note that we have arranged free vaccination drive for our employees and labourers at all offices and plants

The Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held on 27th July, 2021, has considered and approved a Scheme of Amalgamation (the "Scheme") between the Company and Refnol Resins and Chemicals Limited ("RRCL"). The appointed date for the scheme is 1st April, 2021 or such other date as may be fixed or approved by the National Company Law Tribunal ("NCLT") as and when applicable.

Looking back at FY21, we saw contraction in the demand conditions in the export market, as compared to the previous year, with trade and supply side reeling under impact of COVID-19 pandemic. Customer confidence was uncertain and this has reflected in a marked slowdown witnessed in some of the large sectors of the economy. Concerns do exist on account of expected third wave of COVID-19 and increasing fuel prices which may push up inflation. Trade protection policies of USA and China, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, persistently tight credit conditions accentuated by the challenges in the NBFC sector, rising unemployment and low rural and urban income growth were key contributors to the dampened sentiment, which can have an impact on exports and costs of imports. Shutdown of capacities in China due to environmental issues leads to increase in price of input materials, which impacts Company's profitability as the same are not absorbed by the market through price increases and / or could have a negative impact on the demand in the market. I may say that I am very happy with the performance we have been able to achieve notwithstanding difficult business and pandemic conditions.

We continuously innovated by launching new products thereby moving forward in our journey. At the same time we continue to uphold the highest standards of corporate governance treating them as an ethical requisite rather than a regulatory necessity and continue to base all our actions on the principles of fairness trust and transparency. Looking forward the business environment will remain true to its nature – as uncertain and as unpredictable as ever. In such an environment, only those organisations that put in efforts to remain relevant to the changing needs and preferences of customers – understanding the consumer requirements and adapting the business model to suitably address these requirements will be able to deliver long-term growth and sustainable returns to all the stakeholders.

I regret to inform the sudden and sad demise of Mr. Rajagopalan Sesha, Independent Director on the Board of Indokem Limited, on 27th July, 2020, due to cardiac arrest. The Company immensely benefitted by his knowledge and experience during his tenure. All the directors and employees of the Company express their deep sympathy, sorrow and condolences to his family.

On behalf of the Board, I am very happy to announce the appointment of Mr. Rahul Singh joined our company as the Independent Non-executive Director, effective 25th August, 2020. Rahul Singh has over 15-year-long career as Company Secretary and Compliance Officer with variety of industrial businesses in India, including Copper, Automobile, Real Estate, Telecommunications, Mobile Manufacturing, Steel, Aluminium Foil and amplifier Sector. Apart from this, he has diverse experience in related sectors, a deep understanding of Corporate Laws, Legal, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016, SEBI, FEMA and other applicable laws.

Looking ahead into the future, we are confident that our expanded installed base, newly added products, new sales approach and market strategy will drive our march forward. We take immense pride in our people, who have demonstrated extreme agility, resilience and commitment towards serving the customers amid these testing times; and also ensuring safety and well-being of themselves and their families. On behalf of our Board, I thank you all, for your continued trust and support in taking Indokem to greater heights. Please join me in acknowledging the invaluable role of all our frontline COVID warriors and praying for a speedy return to normalcy for our 1.35+ billion fellow Indians and everyone across the globe!

To conclude, we remain encouraged and confident of achieving our long-term objectives of inclusive, sustainable and profitable growth. As we look ahead, I feel confident of strong growth in the medium to long term. I am confident that our disciplined strategy, prudent approach, focus on agile execution and our committed team will enable us to improve performance further and create greater shareholder value.

Even in 2021, after completion of 55 years of our Company, we work with the same newness, optimism and purpose. We at Indokem deeply value the involvement, critical analysis and encouragement shown by Directors and I am privileged to have them on the Board of our Company. I appreciate the efforts of every member of Indokem Family - we may be growing in numbers, but our Purpose is common and shared. In the travails of the past and in the new paradigm we are envisaging for the future, our constant source of strength is the indefatigable spirit of our employees and I would like to thank them for their commitment, patience and hard work. I am grateful to our employees, customers, suppliers, banks and financial institutions for giving us an opportunity to serve and helping us evolve our vision and articulate growth related strategies. The Company has received and I am sure, will continue to receive active cooperation from it's shareholders. I recognise the positive approach of the communities which surround our production sites in India. I thank you for your faith; it brings out the best in us.

Sincerely,

Mahendra K. Khatau Chairman and Managing Director DIN: 00062794

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OVERVIEW OF ECONOMY, INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS:

In 2020, the world experienced a crisis like no other and it is expected to continue in 2021. It will go into the history of mankind as a pandemic year marked by world changing moments that brought about paradigm-shift in terms of new normal and unprecedented disruption in health, education, trade and economy. The year tested human resilience in a formidable manner and worldwide it was fought through repeated lockdowns, closing international borders, stalling travel and public transport. The situation proved to be an eye-opener for the entire world in terms of available healthcare facilities which needed immediate intervention and build-up. The countries across the world faced the crisis with several policy interventions to fight COVID-19 pandemic, extending socio-economic support, strengthening their healthcare infrastructure, releasing guidelines on physical distancing, etc. An immediate scientific research and development associations was sought after and several vaccines were developed to combat the escalating situation. The World Bank estimated 4.3% contraction of the global economy in 2020. The pandemic has caused heavy toll on life and livelihood and pushed millions into poverty. This may impact economic activities and the income level for some time. Assuming success of the vaccine rollout, the World Bank indicated that the global economy will expand by 4% in 2021. However, the latest surge of Covid-19 infection in the leading economies may dent the expansion to some extent.

As we stare at the dreadful new Covid spike that has engulfed many states of India, it is natural to be downcast and fearful. Even before COVID, it was clear that real GDP growth was on a downward trend. Then came the full nationwide lockdown from 25 March 2020 right upto 8th June, 2020. GDP growth crashed by 24.4% in April-June 2020, which was the worst quarterly slump ever. July-September 2020 also posted a negative GDP growth of 7.3%. Then things slowly began to look up. For October-December 2020, GDP growth swung into the positive zone — tiny at 0.4% versus same quarter in the previous year, but positive nevertheless. The Indian economy contracted by more than 8% in FY21. The restricted mobility and social distancing measures severely impacted economic activities which triggered the slump in manufacturing sector, household consumption and increased unemployment rates. The people aggregating sectors such as travel and tourism, airlines are yet to witness a turnaround in their trajectory.

The size of the world Textile Dyestuff industry is estimated at US\$ 6.5 bn. and is growing at about 3%. China continues to be the largest manufacturer of dyes followed by India. The world market for high performance pigments is estimated at US\$ 5.5 bn. (constitutes both organic and inorganic pigments) and is expected to grow at about 4% in the coming years. The main user industries, namely, Textile, Paper, Paint and Coatings will continue to grow because of increasing demands from the middle-class population and increase in discretionary spending. The Company will participate in this growth by - i) increasing manufacturing and working capital efficiencies, ii) introducing new dyes, pigments, textile chemicals and products for non-textile applications, iii) broadening market reach in new geographies and iv) investing in newer capacities of existing and new products.

The global dyes and pigments market size was valued at US\$ 32.9 bn. in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1% from 2021 to 2028. Major producers are actively venturing into enhancing their products by utilizing advanced technologies for the efficient removal of hazardous pollutants during the manufacturing process. Manufacturers are likely to experience varied production costs due to volatility in the prices of raw materials.

The global Textile Dyes market is majorly segmented on the basis of types, application, fibers, and region. Based on types textile dyes market is segmented as Direct dyes, Acid dyes, Basic dyes, Fiber-reactive dyes, Vat dyes, Mordant dyes, Solvent dyes, Disperse dyes¸ and others (Sulphur dyes, Azoic colours, etc.). Based on application, of textile dyes the market is segmented into yarn dyeing, garment dyeing. Based on fiber the market segmented into cotton, wool, silk, nylon, viscose, and others (acrylic, jute etc.) and based on region market is segmented into North America, Europe, APAC, Latin America, Middle East & Africa.

Upsurge in production of textiles in developing countries to meet the rise in consumer demand, low cost of labor, and an increase in population are the various factors that drive the growth of the global textile dyes industry. However, the market growth is hampered due to implementation of various health & environment regulations toward the use of textile dyes. This is attributed to the fact that these dyes contain toxic substances such as arsenic, lead and heavy metals, which increase environmental pollution, thereby negatively impacting the growth of the textile dye industry.

Textile dyeing processes consume huge amount of water as a solvent. Hence, development of new processes that minimize the water wastage is anticipated to create a significant opportunity for the market growth.

Several industries within the manufacturing sector witnessed negative growth. The chemical industry also was no exception and growth was adversely impacted during the financial year. The outlook for the financial year 2021-22, continues to be challenging as COVID-19 epidemic, availability of inputs and rise in the crude oil prices can pose challenges for the industry.

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES:

The world market for textiles is growing and, therefore, the demand for dyes will continue to grow in future.
Rising domestic demand in Textile Dyes and chemicals, India's attractiveness as a manufacturing destination and its improved ease of doing business are some factors that suggest possibility of further growth in the chemical industry.
Government initiatives like 'Make in India' and FDI are further anticipated to aid the growth of the market over the coming years.
The Indian Textile chemicals industry continues to be benefited due to availability of technically skilled manpower and competitive labour costs.
Pollution and effluent problems have become the single biggest factor in restricting the growth of the textiles dyes industry in the developed nations. Tighter rules and regulations, strict laws and high standard for treatment of the effluents have forced these countries to look for better opportunities without sacrificing their interest. If India has to capitalize on these opportunities, then there seems to be no harm in encouraging this industry in the country provided proper measures are taken for effluent treatment.
Shutdown of capacities in China due to the environmental issues is likely to continue in the near term. Most of the raw materials for textile dye stuffs is coming from China; due to the ongoing strict environment standards in place; there is an acute shortage of raw materials, leading to huge increase in prices. Main products affected are VAT dyes, Disperse dyes, Direct dyes, Pigment emulsions and Reactive dyes, etc.
As per new environmental regulations of Government of China, higher environment standards have been made top priority wherein they will expand environmental inspections to more cities and regions in a fresh round of checks as part of a three-year anti-pollution plan. The regulations have had an adverse effect on the availability of raw materials for the industry. This has raised major concerns for us and impacted the rate of most of the products which has gone up steeply. Cost of few of the raw materials used in manufacturing of VAT, Pigment, Disperse and Basic Dyes have gone up abnormally. Another main reason for severe impact on profits was reduction in gross margin due to increase in raw materials input costs which could not be passed on to the customers.
This increase in prices and shortage of raw materials is impacting production and thereby leading to abnormal increase in prices, which viciously again leads to increase in prices and shortage of raw materials. Fluctuations in foreign exchange and availability of raw materials may impact sales realizations. Treatment costs are expected to remain high because of stricter regulatory norms and increasing demand for cleaner and greener products from user industries.
Risk of global economic slowdown as a result of the pandemic and rising trade tensions may impact the Textile Dyes and Chemicals sector as a whole.

The cost of compliance and complex regulatory process also impact operations economically. The ability to scale up, offering differentiated products through innovations, implementing effective sales and marketing strategy and maintaining high levels of regulatory standards will clearly separate winners from the crowds in this space.

FUTURE OUTLOOK:

During the year, Indian economy witnessed significant slowdown due to lockdowns imposed due to COVID-19 pandemic, impacting consumer demand. The global trade tensions and credit squeeze in domestic market played a major role in driving down demand and growth expectations. Your Company expects to face COIVD impact situation by harnessing the intrinsic strengths of its brands, innovation capabilities, and strong distribution network and cost efficiency programs. Currently there is uncertainty on pace of recovery of the economy, but Management is making sure that the organization remains fully energized during the period and ready to bounce back on the next opportunity. Your Company will be able to sustain any short term disruptions without affecting the long term strategy. During the year under review, the Company faced turbulence in the market and the same has been reflected in the results of the Company. The Company is taking all corrective measures to strengthen itself against the volatility and we hope that our commitment will continue to drive the Company, as we move forward.

RISKS AND CONCERNS:

Chemicals industry is a highly regulated industry with stringent environmental norms. Any change in policy by the Government may have an adverse impact on the performance of the Industry. However, Indokem Limited

follows best in class process controls and systems, and hence we are always ready to adapt to any changes in the Government Regulations.

Shutdown of capacities in China due to environmental issues leads to increase in price of input materials, which impacts Company's profitability to the extent that the same are not absorbed by the market through price increases and / or could have a negative impact on the demand in the market. The Company has started concentrating on supply chain Management system with focus on inventory Management to mitigate impact of fluctuation in the raw material prices.
Huge fluctuation in the foreign exchange rates had an adverse impact on the Company's import and export transactions which finally impacted financials of the Company. Further rise in the crude oil prices has weakened Indian Rupee due to increase in import costs.
As part of the global policy, the relevant parameters for all manufacturing sites are analyzed to minimize the risk associated with protection of environment, safety of operations and health of people at work. These are then monitored regularly with reference to statutory regulations prescribed by government authorities and guidelines defined by Indokem. The Company fulfills its legal requirements concerning emission, waste water and waste disposal. Improving work place safety continues to be top priority at all manufacturing units.
The Company continues its focus on compliance in all areas of its business operations by rationalizing and strengthening controls. This is also an important component of Company's Code of Conduct. The Company has set in place the requisite mechanism for meeting with the compliance requirements and periodic monitoring to avoid any deviation. Company aims to set exemplary and sustainable standards, not only through products, services and performance, but also through integrity and behavior.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY:

The Company has an Internal Control System, commensurate with the size, scale and complexity of its operations. In order to supplement the internal control process, the Company has appointed an Internal Auditor who is authorised by the Audit Committee to assess the adequacy and compliance of internal control process and provide their report covering observations and recommendations. Based on the report of internal audit function, the Company undertakes corrective actions in their respective areas and thereby strengthens the controls. Significant audit observations and recommendations along with corrective actions thereon are presented to the Audit Committee of the Board.

These controls are designed to provide a reasonable assurance regarding:

Adherence to the Company's policies and procedures;
Safeguarding assets;
Prevention and detection of fraud and error;
Reliability, completeness and accuracy of accounts;
Timely reporting of information (financial, non-financial, internal and external).

QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:

Securities and Exchange Board of India has barred physical transfer of shares of listed Companies effective from April 01, 2019 and mandated the share transfer only through Electronic mode. However, the above decision does not prohibit the investor from holding the shares in physical form; investor has the option of holding shares in physical form even after April 01, 2019. Also the Board Decision is not applicable for transmission (i.e. transfer of title of shares by way of inheritance / succession) and transposition (i.e. re- arrangement / interchanging of the order of name of shareholders) cases.

The Company obtains half yearly certificate of compliance with the share transfer formalities as required under Regulation 40(10) of the Listing Agreement with Stock Exchanges from a Company Secretary in Practice, and files a copy of the certificate with the Stock Exchanges where Company's shares are listed.

As required by SEBI, a Reconciliation of Share Capital Audit is conducted on a quarterly basis by a Practicing Company Secretary and Certificate issued in this regard is forwarded to the Stock Exchange.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Members of Indokem Limited

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Indokem Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2021, and the statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), statement of cash flows and Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2021, the profit and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under, 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 audit opinion on the financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our 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.

When we read the above reports, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

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

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

In preparing the financial statements, 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.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

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

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

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
Evaluate the appropriateness of 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 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the 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.

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

Other Matter

During the last week of March 2021, the state government imposed lockdown in Maharashtra due to outbreak of Phase II of covid-19, to contain the outbreak of COVID 19, due to which we were not able to attend the physical verification of inventory carried out by the management subsequent to the year end. Consequently, we have performed alternate procedures to audit the existence of inventory as per the guidance provided in SA 501 "Audit Evidence – Specific considerations for selected items" and have obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence to issue our unmodified opinion on these financial statements.

Annexure - B to the Auditors' Report

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

Opinion

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Indokem Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2021 in conjunction with our audit of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

In our opinion, except in case of inventory where preventive controls need to be strengthened although mitigating control exists; 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 March 31, 2021, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

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

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting 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 over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

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

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

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

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

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

The acquisition method of accounting under Ind AS 103 is used to account for business combinations by the Company from the date of transition to Ind AS i.e. April 1, 2016. Prior to the date of transition to Ind AS, business acquisition has been accounted based on previous GAAP.

e) Property, plant and equipment ("PPE"):

The initial cost of an item of PPE comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates and includes import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities) and any other directly attributable expenditure incurred in making the asset ready for its intended use, including interest on borrowings attributable to acquisition of qualifying assets up to the date the asset is ready for its intended use. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company.

Material items such as spare parts, stand-by-equipment and service equipment are classified as PPE when they meet the definition of PPE as specified in Ind AS 16- property, plant and equipment.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of Profit and Loss when the asset is derecognised.

f) Capital work in progress:

Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of impairment losses, if any.

g) Depreciation:

The Company provides depreciation as per the useful life of PPE as per Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Depreciation is provided on Straight Line Method on all PPE at the rates and in the manner prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013, except in the case of following assets:

Nature of asset	Useful life
Leasehold Land and Building	Lease term
Temporary shed	Remaining lease term

Assets costing less than ` 5,000/- are fully depreciated in the year of capitalisation. Depreciation on additions / deductions to PPE made during the year is provided on pro-rata basis from / upto the date of such additions / deductions, as the case may be.

h) Intangible assets:

Intangible assets that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment, if any. The Company determines the amortisation period as the period over which the future economic benefits will flow to the Company after taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed periodically, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Nature of asset	Useful life
Computer software	3 years

i) Borrowing costs:

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. 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 that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

j) Assets held for sale:

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset is available for sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sale of such assets.Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Property, plant and equipment classified as held for sale are not depreciated.

k) Leases:

The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for Land and Buildings. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:

(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset
(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and
(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognises a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and leases of low value assets. For these short-term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease

l) Impairment of non-financial asset:

Non-financial assets other than inventories and non-current assets held for sale are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is higher of the asset's or cash generating unit's (CGU) fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets.

When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

m) Inventories:

1) Inventories are valued as follows:

Raw materials and packing materials are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV). Cost is determined on FIFO basis. The cost of inventory comprises of its purchase price, including non-refundable purchase taxes, and any directly attributable costs related to the inventories.

2) Work-in-process is valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of finished goods and WIP includes cost of raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads upto the relevant stage of production. Cost of inventories is computed on FIFO basis.
3) Stock in trade is valued at cost or net realisable value whichever is lower.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and / or estimated costs necessary to make sale.

n) Foreign currency transactions:

The transactions in currencies other than the Company's functional currency are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the year end exchange rates. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such translation are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

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

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rate as on the date of initial recognition.

Effective April 1, 2018, the Company has adopted Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration which clarifies the date of transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income when an entity has received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency. The effect on account of adoption of this amendment was insignificant.

o) Revenue recognition:

The Company derives revenues primarily from sale of manufactured goods, traded goods

Effective 01 April 2018, the Company has adopted Indian Accounting Standard 115 (Ind AS 115) – 'Revenue from contracts with customers'. The effect on adoption of Ind AS-115 was insignificant.

Revenue is recognised on satisfaction of performance obligation upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services.

The Company does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, it does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.

The Company satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time, if one of the following criteria is met:

1. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company; or
1. The Company's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
1. The Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company and an entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For performance obligations where one of the above conditions are not met, revenue is recognised at the point in time at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue from sale of products are recognised at a time on which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Income from export incentives is recognised on accrual basis to the extent the ultimate realisation is reasonably certain.

Interest income is recognised on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding on effective interest rate.

Insurance claims are accounted on accrual basis when the claims become receivable.

Recoveries from group Companies and third parties include recoveries towards common facilities / resources and other support provided to such parties which is recognised as per terms of agreement and in the year in which such services are rendered.

p) Income taxes:

Current tax is the amount of tax payable on taxable income for the year determined in accordance with the applicable tax rates and provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and other applicable tax laws.

Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is highly probable that future economic benefit associated with it will flow to the Company.

Deferred income tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the Balance Sheet and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit and is accounted for using the liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences and deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences, carry forward tax losses and allowances can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured at applicable tax rates and offset and presented as net.

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

q) Fair value measurement:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the assets or transfer the liability takes place either:

1) In the principal market for the asset or liability; or
2) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market which can be accessed by the Company for the asset or liability.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

i) Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
ii) Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable;
iii) Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

r) Financial assets:

Initial recognition and measurement:

Financial assets are recognised and measured in accordance with Ind AS 109 on financial instruments. Accordingly, the Company recognises financial asset only when it has a contractual right to receive cash or other financial assets from another entity.

Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs directly attributable to its acquisition. The transaction costs incurred for the purchase of financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the statement of profit and loss immediately.

Subsequent measurement:

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit and loss (FVPL). The classification depends on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

1) Debt instruments:

There are three measurement categories into which the Company classifies its debt instruments:

At amortised cost:

Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Financial assets are accounted for at amortised cost using the effective interest method. This category comprises trade accounts receivable, loans, cash and cash equivalents, bank balances and other financial assets. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.

Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI):

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

Fair value through profit or loss (FVPL):

Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at FVPL and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and presented within other gains / (losses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.

2) Equity investments

All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company decides to classify the same either as at FVOCI or FVPL. The Company makes such election on an instrument by instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. Equity instruments included within the FVPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the profit or loss.

Derecognition:

A financial asset is primarily derecognised when:

(i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
(ii) The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement; and either
1) The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
2) The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

On de-recognition, any gains or losses on all debt instruments (other than debt instruments measured at FVOCI) and equity instruments (measured at FVPL) are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. Gains and losses in respect of debt instruments measured at FVOCI and that are accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss on de-recognition. Gains or losses on equity instruments measured at FVOCI that are recognised and accumulated in OCI are not reclassified to profit or loss on de-recognition.

Impairment of Financial Asset:

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:

(i) Financial assets that are debt instruments and are measured at amortised cost e.g. loans, debt securities, deposits and bank balance.
(ii) For trade receivables, the Company uses a simplified approach as permitted under IndAs 109
(iii) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
(iv) In case of other assets (listed as (i) and (ii) above), the Company determines if there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial asset since initial recognition. If the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount equal to 12-month ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance.

s) Financial Liabilities:

Initial recognition and measurement

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings.

Subsequent measurement:

The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVPL, fair value gains / losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains / losses are not subsequently transferred to profit or loss. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities at amortised cost:

Financial liabilities classified and measured at amortised cost such as loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction cost incurred. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.

Derecognition:

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Borrowings:

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Any differences between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption

amount is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the borrowing using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facilities will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the drawdown occurs. The borrowings are removed from the Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid including any noncash asset transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other gains / (losses).

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

t) Employee benefits:

1) Short term employee benefits:

The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees is recognised during the period when the employee renders the services. These benefits include compensated absences such as paid annual leave and performance incentives.

2) Long term employee benefits:

The Company provides post-employment benefits under defined contribution and / or defined benefit plans:

(i) Defined benefit plan:

For defined benefit plan, the cost of providing benefits is determined using projected unit credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each Balance Sheet date. Actuarial gains or losses are recognised in full in other comprehensive income for the period in which they occur. Past service costs both vested and unvested are recognised as an expense (a) when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs ; (b) when the entity recognises related restructuring cost or termination benefits, whichever is earlier. The retirement benefits obligation recognised in the Balance Sheet represents the present value of defined benefit obligations reduced by the fair value of plan assets.

(ii) Defined contribution plans:

Contribution to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense when the employees have rendered services entitling them to such benefits.

u) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets:

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using an appropriate pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as a finance cost.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed by way of a note to the financial statements 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 when there is 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 are not recognized in financial statements but disclosed when the inflow of economic benefits is probable. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and is recognised.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2021

v) Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and bank overdrafts. These do not include bank balances earmarked / restricted for specific purposes.

w) Cash flow statement:

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / loss before extraordinary items and tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments.

x) Earnings per share:

1) Basic earnings per share:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year.

2) Diluted earnings per share:

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income relating to dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

y) Ind AS 108: Segment Reporting:

Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.

Based on "Management Approach" as defined in Ind AS 108 - Operating segments, the operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker of the Company is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and accordingly is identified as the chief operating decision maker.

z) Recent accounting pronouncements:

On March 24, 2021, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") through a notification, amended Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013. The amendments revise Division I, II and III of Schedule III and are applicable from April 1, 2021. Key amendments relating to Division II which relate to companies whose financial statements are required to comply with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015 are:

Balance Sheet:

Lease liabilities should be separately disclosed under the head 'financial liabilities', duly distinguished as current or non-current.

Fair Value Hiearchy :

The fair value hierarchy is based on the inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable and consists of the following three levels :

Level 1- Level 1 heirarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices and mutual funds are measured using the closing net asset value (NAV).

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

Level 3 – if one or more of the significant inputs is based on observable market data, the instrument is included in Level 3.

The fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2021 is as follows :

Note: * Amount is below the rounding off limits followed by the Company's norms.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

Cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and other financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities or nature of these instruments.

The fair value of Company's interest bearing borrowings are determined using amortised cost basis using a discount rate that reflects issuer's borrowing rate as at the end of reporting date.

Financial risk management objectives:

The Company's activities exposes it to a variety of financial risk viz. market risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. In order to manage the aforementioned risks, the Company has a risk management policy and a program that performs close monitoring of and responding to each risk factors.

Market risk:

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and other market changes.

Foreign currency risk:

Foreign currency risk mainly arises from transactions undertaken by an operating unit in currencies other than its functional currency. The carrying amount of Company's financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are as follows :

(` in lakhs)
--------------	--	--	--

Particulars	USD	`
As at March 31, 2021
Financial assets	16	11,49
Financial liabilities	-*	21

5% appreciation / depreciation of the respective foreign currencies with respect to the functional currency of the Company would result in decrease / increase in the Company's profit before tax by approximately ` 56.37 lakhs (net) for the year ended March 31, 2021.

	(` in lakhs)
--	--------------

Particulars	USD	`
As at March 31, 2020
Financial assets	15	11,16
Financial liabilities	-*	18

5% appreciation / depreciation of the respective foreign currencies with respect to the functional currency of the Company would result in decrease / increase in the Company's profit before tax by approximately `54.90 lakhs (net) for the year ended March 31, 2020.

Interest rate risk:

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have significant floating interest rate borrowings during the year ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020. Hence, the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk as at the respective reporting dates.

Credit risk:

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers located in India. Credit risk has always been managed by the Company through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. On account of adoption of Ind AS 109, the Company uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain.

Liquidity risk:

The responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Company's short, medium and longterm funding and liquidity management requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities by regularly monitoring forecast and actual cash flows.
