Demat account holders would be able to cast their vote without having to register again with the ESPs, thereby, not only facilitating seamless authentication but also enhancing ease and convenience of participating in e-voting process.

Annexure A to Boards’ Report MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Economic and Industry Overview

The objective of this report is to convey the Management’s perspective on the external environment as well as strategy, operating and financial performance, material developments in human resources and industrial relations, risks and opportunities etc. The power sector is a strategic and critical sector and power supply system supports the entire economy. According to Ministry of Power, in last one decade India has added huge power generation capacity resulted into power surplus country as against power deficit country earlier. Power sector is the key growth driver for the insulators industry. However, domestic insulator demand has affected due to deferment of projects by state utilities etc.

Global Economic Outlook

Global growth is likely to rise from 2.90 % to 3.1% in 2024. Inflation is expected to continue to cool, although in many countries the price pressure will take longer to unwind than it took to emerge.

Geopolitical uncertainty is elevated, with nearly half of the world’s population already voting or heading to the polls this year. Hot wars and trade tensions are flaring, which could fuel more isolationist policies. The resulting risk is more frequent bouts of inflation and activist monetary policies.

Prospects for 2025 are better, with inflation expected to return towards target and central banks more confident to cut policy rates from the current restrictive levels. The silver lining is a tailwind for big-ticket consumer purchases and business investment.

Indian Economy

Despite a sluggish global economy, India maintained its trajectory as one of the fastest growing economies in the world. This economic growth can be primarily attributed to robust domestic consumption and less reliance on foreign imports. While government initiatives facilitated domestic demand, increased investments to bolster manufacturing sector and improve digital and physical infrastructure mitigated supply chain issues effectively. The government’s emphasis on improving infrastructure, as evident through initiatives such as the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, logistics upgradation and industrial corridors, is anticipated to increase industrial competitiveness and spur future growth. With the improvement of business accessibility, the general investment climate is growing more favorable.

Global power sector overview

Global electricity demand rose moderately in 2023 but is expected to rise at a faster rate over the next three years, growing by an average of 3.4% annually through 2026. Global electricity demand is expected to more than double from 25,000 terawatt-hours (TWh) to between 52,000 and 71,000 TWh by 2050, due to the growth in emerging markets’ energy needs and electrification across the economy.

Total annual investments in the energy sector are projected to grow by about 5 percent per annum and may cross $1.5 trillion by 2040. Investments in T&D networks are projected to experience the highest growth of between 4 to 8 percent per annum, reaching between $0.6 trillion and $1.2 trillion by 2040. Investments in renewable power are also expected to increase under all scenarios, reaching $0.5 trillion to $1.0 trillion per annum by 2040, driven by significant new wind- and solar-capacity additions. The rapid growth of renewables, supported by rising nuclear generation, is set to displace global coal-fired generation, which is forecast to fall by an average of 1.7% annually through 2026.

The transport sector is projected to see a steep growth in power demand, driven by passenger electric vehicles. The rapidly expanding production of solar PV modules and electric vehicles, and the processing of related

materials, will support ongoing electricity demand growth in Asian Countries while the structure of its economy evolves. By 2050, global passenger battery electric vehicle car is projected to reach 1.3 billion—almost equal to the total number of all cars today.

Under all scenarios, power demand is projected to grow across the globe, driven by several factors that differ by region, including population growth, increasing wealth per capita, and electrification. Although China, India, and North America are projected to represent more than half of the global power demand growth.

Indian power sector overview

India is the third-largest producer and consumer of electricity worldwide, with an installed power capacity of 442.85 GW as of April 30, 2024. Growing population along with increasing electrification and per-capita usage will provide further impetus. Power consumption in India in FY23 logged a 9.5% growth to 1,503.65 billion units (BU).

Over the past few decades, the country has seen the fastest growth rate among major economies. Following a 7% increase in India’s electricity demand in 2023, we expect growth above 6% on average annually until 2026. While renewables are set to meet almost half of this demand growth, one-third is expected to come from rising coal-fired generation.

To meet India’s 500 GW renewable energy target and tackle the annual issue of coal demand-supply mismatch, the Ministry of Power has identified 81 thermal units which will replace coal with renewable energy generation by 2026.In the Budget for 2024, the government’s power sector initiatives have been allocated funds that are 50% higher. Increased funds have been allocated to green hydrogen, solar power, and green-energy corridors. 100% FDI allowed in the power sector has boosted FDI inflow in this sector. Schemes such as Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY) and PM-Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojanaare expected to augment electrification across the country. As per the National Infrastructure Pipeline 2019-25, energy sector projects accounted for the highest share (24%) out of the total expected capital expenditure of Rs. 111 lakh crore (US$ 1.4 trillion).

ANALYSIS AND REVIEW

The company continues to be a leader in the manufacture of Extra High Voltage Insulators in the country. Despite stiff competition, buyers show interest in company’s products for its quality & timely delivery hence the company is confident for achieving better working results in the coming year. The company has a well-equipped R & D laboratory, which takes care of the stringent quality requirements of customers and ensures quality and reliability in each and every product manufactured. In-house R&D activities have a thrust on qualitative development to replace expensive input raw material & to bring consistency in quality of the product under manufacture and save cost by way of process control.

The company has a fully equipped foundry to cater demand from various segments apart from fulfilling company’s major captive requirement of

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

castings in required time frame.

OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES

India’s transmission segment has made remarkable progress over the years, evolving from a fragmented network into a well-integrated and interconnected grid. Electricity demand in the country has increased rapidly and is expected to rise further in the years to come. In order to meet the increasing demand for electricity in the country, massive addition to the installed generating capacity is required.

With ongoing investments in grid modernisation, capacity expansion, and the integration of technologies, the future outlook of Insulator’s industry is promising. Railway electrification is happening over nine times faster than what it was a decade ago and further increase demand of insulators in the coming months.Also we are putting all our efforts to promote Long Rod Insulators to all potential SEBs & private TSPs.

In Exports, increased demand of insulators seen in various markets. Opportunities are seen in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Middle East and Africa as they are going for the increase in transmission capacity. With a growing emphasis on grid modernization and the need to upgrade aging power infrastructure, the Middle East and Africa region demonstrates remarkable growth potential in the electric insulator market. The countries like Oman, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia are investing heavily in power infrastructure to support their growing economies.

RISKS & CONCERNS

The broader economic trends are poised to directly affect a company’s growth potential. Persistent inflation has resulted in increase in commodity prices worldwide. Furthermore, the delay in anticipated decrease in central bank interest rates may dampen growth and strain economies, especially in emerging markets. It is thereby important to manage cost pressures to sustain the Company’s overall performance in these conditions.

OUTLOOK

The overall domestic insulator demand was sluggish in last few years but is expected to rebound over next few years as stalled projects are moving to the execution stage now. Capex in power sector as announced in union budget may drive demand for the insulator industry in the power generation, transmission, and distribution sectors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the members of Modern Insulators Limited

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements Qualified Opinion

We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of Modern Insulators Limited (the ‘Company’) which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2024 , the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Standalone Financial Statements’).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effect of the matters described in “Basis for Qualified Opinion” section of our report, the aforesaid standalone financial statements, give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the ‘Act’) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2024, its profit (including Other Comprehensive Income), its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Key Audit Matters

Measurement, presentation and disclosure of allowance for Expected Credit Losses (ECL) on trade receivables

  • The Company is required to recognize allowance for ECL on trade receivables due to the credit risks associated with each individual trade receivable.

  • Management determines the allowance for ECL on trade receivables by reviewing customers ageing profile, historical loss adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions, credit history and suit filed cases for additional allowance.

  • The determination of allowance for ECL is subjective and requires management to make judgements and assumptions, hence this is considered as key audit matter.

  • Refer note no. 1, 1A and 8 to the standalone financial statements.

Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report thereon

The Company’s Board of Directors / Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s annual report, but does not include the standalone and consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s reports thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone 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. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

The accompanying standalone financial statements have been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company’s Board of Directors / Management is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in

  • Tested effectiveness of controls with respect to (i) development of methodology for allowance for expected credit losses, (ii) completeness and accuracy of the information used and (iii) computation of allowance for expected credit losses.

  • Tested sample of the data used in the model to the underlying accounting records.

  • Evaluated the ECL model calculations, agreeing the data inputs and checking the mathematical accuracy of the calculations.

  • Assessed the key inputs and assumptions used

  • Assessed whether the disclosures in the financial statements are adequate.

accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS 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 standalone financial statements, Board of Directors / Management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Board of Directors / Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial

Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial

~~Insulators Limited~~

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

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

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Management.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Directors / 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 upto 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.

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 for the year ended 31 March 2024 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.

ANNEXURE B FORMING PART OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Referred to in the report of even date of the Auditors to members of Modern Insulators Limited

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements of Modern Insulators Limited (“the Company”) as of 31 March 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s Board of Directors / Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial controls 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 (the ‘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 (the ‘Act’).

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI and Standards on Auditing prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial control with reference to financial statements. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were 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 with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

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 with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

A company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with 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 with reference to financial statements

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

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2024, based on the internal financial control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal controls stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.

Note no. 1: Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of preparation

  • (i) The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act. The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods in the Financial Statements.

  • (ii) The Financial Statements are prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention except (i) claims of customers & others which are accounted for as and when paid/settled and (ii) financial assets and liabilities (including derivatives instruments) that are measured at fair value as required by relevant Ind AS. The methods used to measure fair values are discussed in notes to financial statements.

  • (iii) The preparation of financial statements requires judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/ materialized. Major estimates are discussed in Note No. 1A.

(b) Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the functional currency of the company and the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.

  • (c) Classification of assets and liabilities into current and non-current The Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of Current and Non-Current classification of its Assets and Liabilities. Classification is done in accordance with Schedule III Division II of the Companies Act, 2013.

For the purpose of Balance Sheet, an asset is classified as current when:

  • (i) It is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle; or

  • (ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

  • (iii) It is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

Deferred tax assets/liabilities are classified as non-current assets/ liabilities.

(d) Property, plant & equipment (PPE)

The Company had applied for the one time transition exemption ofconsidering the fair value as on the date of transition i.e. 01st April, 2016 as the deemed cost under Ind AS. Hence regarded thereafter as historical cost.

Freehold land is carried at Cost. All other items of Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at acquisition or construction cost less accumulated depreciation / amortisation and impairment loss. Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its location and working condition for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs.

If significant parts of an item of PPE have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of PPE. The cost of an item of PPE is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company in future periods and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Expenditure incurred after the PPE have been put into operations, such as repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which they are incurred.

Subsequent expenditure incurred after the PPE have been put into operations is recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Items such as spare parts, standby equipments and servicing equipments are recognised as PPE when it is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purpose and are expected to be used for more than one year. Otherwise such items are classified as inventory.

An item of PPE is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the assets. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of PPE, is determined as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(e) Expenditure during construction period

Expenditure, net of income earned, during construction (including financing cost related to borrowed funds for construction or acquisition of qualifying PPE) period is included under capital work-in-progress and the same is allocated to the respective PPE on the completion of construction. Advances given towards acquisition or construction of PPE outstanding at each reporting date are disclosed as Capital Advances under “Other Non Current Assets”

(f) Depreciation

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of PPE over its useful life and is provided on a straight-line basis over the useful lives as prescribed in Schedule II to the Act or as per technical evaluation. Leasehold lands are amortised over the lease term unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of lease term.

Depreciable amount for PPE is the cost of PPE less its estimated residual value. The useful life of PPE is the period over which PPE is expected to be available for use by the Company or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the Company. In case of certain classes of PPE, the Company uses different useful lives than those prescribed in Schedule II to the Act. The useful lives have been assessed based on technical evaluation, taking into consideration the nature of the PPE and the estimated usage of the asset on the basis of management’s best estimation of obtaining

44

economic benefits from those classes of assets.

The useful life considered for calculation of depreciation / amortisation for various Asset class are as under:

Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date of installation or acquisition and in case of Projects from the date of commencement of commercial production.

Depreciation on deductions/disposals is provided on a pro-rata basis up to the date of deduction/disposal.

(g) Intangible assets and amortization

Internally generated intangible assets

Expenditure incurred on development is capitalised if such expenditure leads to creation of any intangible asset, otherwise, such expenditure is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. PPE procured for research and development activities are capitalised.

Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, 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.

An item of intangible asset is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the assets. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of intangible asset, is determined as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

The useful life considered for calculation of depreciation / amortisation for various Asset class are as under:

Asset class Useful life
Computer Software 1-3 Years

Based on technical evaluation, management believes that the useful life as given above best represent the period over which the management expects to use these assets.

Intangible asset having definite life are amortised on systematic basis over their useful life. If life of any intangible asset is indefinite then it is not amortised but tested for impairment loss at the end of each reporting date.

(h) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, development or erection of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing cost are being incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

(i)

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Raw material, stores and spare parts and packing materials are considered to be realisable at cost, if the finished products, in which they will be used, are expected to be sold at or above cost. The cost is computed on weighted average basis.

Cost of finished goods and work- in- progress includes cost of conversion based on normal capacity and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Spare parts, other than those capitalised as PPE are carried as inventories.

The diminution in the value of obsolete, unserviceable and surplus stores & spares is ascertained after review and if found material, suitable provision is made / written down based on technical evaluation, its recoverable value and management’s best estimate.

(j) Investment in subsidiary and joint venture

Investments in subsidiary company and joint venture are recognized at cost as per Ind AS 27.

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks, cash in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.

(l) Government grants

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all associated conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the related asset.

(m) 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, that can be reliably estimated, will be required to settle such an obligation.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows to net present value 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.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligations. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and are adjusted to reflect the management’s best estimate.

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, is disclosed as a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are also disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non -occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.

Claims against the Company where the possibility of any outflow of

45

~~Insulators Limited~~

resources in settlement is remote, are not disclosed as contingent liabilities.

Contingent assets are not recognised in financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and is recognised.

  • (n) Foreign currency transactions and translations

Transactions in foreign currencies, other than the Company’s functional currency are recognised at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currencyarenot translated. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which these arise.

(o) Revenue recognition

Effective 01 April 2018, the Company has adopted Indian Accounting Standard 115 (Ind AS 115) – Revenue from contracts with customers’. The impact of the adoption of Ind-AS 115 on the financial statements of the Company is insignificant.

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

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

  • (i) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance; or

  • (ii) The Company’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or

  • (iii) 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 is not met, revenue is recognized at the point in time at which the performance obligation is satisfied.

If the Company has any contract wherein the period between transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year, transaction price is adjusted for the time value of money.

(p) Other operating revenues / other income

  • (i) Income from services is recognized (net of GST as applicable) based on the services rendered in accordance with the terms of contracts.

  • (ii) For all financial instruments measured at amortized cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset.

  • (iii) Interest income for all financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

  • (iv) Dividend income is accounted for when the right to receive the income is established.

  • (v) Export incentives under various schemes are recognized in the year of export.

(q) Employee Benefits

Short term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are recognized as an expense on accrual basis.

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

Defined contribution plans

Defined contribution plans are those plans in which an entity pays fixed contribution into separate entities and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident fund and employee state insurance are defined contribution plans in which company pays a fixed contribution and will have no further obligation.

Defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.

Company pays Gratuity as per provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their services in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.

The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a liability to the company, the present value of liability is recognized as provision for employee benefit. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income in the period in which they arise.

Other long-term employee benefits

Benefits under the Company’s leave encashment constitute other long term employee benefits.

The Company’s net obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, that benefit is discounted to determine its present value and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in the Statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise.

(r) Research and development expenditure

Revenue expenditure on research and development is charged as an expense in the year in which it is incurred under the respective heads of accounts. Expenditure which results in the creation of capital assets is capitalised and depreciation is provided on such assets as applicable.

(s) Income taxes

Income Tax expenses comprise current tax and deferred tax charge or credit.

Current Tax is measured on the basis of estimated taxable income for the current accounting period in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and other applicable tax laws.

Deferred tax is provided, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset, if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary

~~Insulators Limited~~

differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent it is no longer probable.

Income tax expenses relating to items recognised directly in equity or OCI is recognised in equity or OCI and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(t) Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases, when the terms of the lease, transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as Operating Leases.

Operating Lease: Lease rentals are charged or recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance Lease: Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the Company at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation. Finance charges are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Company’s policy on borrowing costs.

(u) Impairment of non-financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

(v) Impairment of financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing the impairment loss on financial assets including trade receivables. Expected credit loss is the difference between the contractual cash flows and the cash flows the entity expects to receive using effective interest rate.

Loss allowance for trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. For other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses unless there is significant increase in the credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime expected credit losses. Lifetime expected credit losses are expected credit losses that result from all possible defaults over the expected life of financial

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

instrument. Lifetime expected credit losses are computed based on provision matrix which takes into account historical credit losses adjusted for forward looking information, suit filed cases and credit information of customers.

(w) Segment reporting

Identification of Segments

Operating Segments are identified based on monitoring of operating results by the Board of Directors separately for the purpose of making decision about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on profit or loss and is measured consistently with profit or loss of the Company.

Operating Segments are identified based on the nature of products and services, the different risks and returns and the internal business reporting system.

Segment Policies

The Company prepares its segment information in conformity with the accounting policies adopted for preparing and presenting the financial statements of the Company as a whole.

(x) Material prior period errors

Material prior period errors are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior periods presented in which the error occurred. If the error occurred before the earliest prior period presented, the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest prior period presented, are restated.

(y) Earnings Per Share (EPS)

The basic EPS is computed by dividing the profit after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

For the purpose of calculating diluted EPS, profit after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

(z) Fair value Measurement

The company measures financial instruments, such as investments and derivatives at fair value at each reporting date.

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

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

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

A fair value measurement of a non financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The company uses valuation technique that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

Fair values are categorized into different levels in the hierarchy as under:

  • Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

  • Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

  • Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

(aa) Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

  • i) Initial Recognition: Financial assets and Financial liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss.

ii) Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets

The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of following:

  • the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and

  • the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

At amortised cost:

  • A financial asset shall be classified and measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:

  • the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

  • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using expected interest rate (EIR) method. In case of financial assets at amortised costs, interest income, foreign exchange gain or loss and impairment are recognized in Statement of profit and loss.

At fair value through OCI:

A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:

  • the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and

  • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Where the Company has elected to present the fair value gain on equity instruments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent classification of fair value gain or losses to profit and loss account. Dividend from such instruments is recognized in profit and loss account as other income where right to receive is established.

At fair value through Profit or Loss:

A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss other than those measured at amortised cost or at fair value through OCI.

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Impairment of financial assets:

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. In case of trade receivables, the Company follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The Company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial asset. The Company’s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time credit expected losses. The Company calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

Derecognition of financial assets:

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises associated liabilities. On derecognition of a financial asset, other than investments classified as FVOCI, in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.

iii) Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or ‘other financial liabilities’

Financial Liabilities at FVTPL:

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Other Financial Liabilities:

Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of Financial Liabilities:

The Company derecognises a financial liability 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 exchange or modification is treated as derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

The difference between the carrying amount of financial liability derecognized and consideration paid and payable is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

48

~~Insulators Limited~~

On derecognition of equity investments classified as FVOCI, accumulated gains or loss recognised in OCI is transferred to retained earnings.

(bb) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  • Classification as debt or equity Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

  • Equity instruments

  • An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Company are recognised at the proceeds received.

(cc) Derivative financial instruments

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments viz. foreign exchange forward contracts to manage foreign exchange risks. The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Note no. 1A. Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, the accompanying disclosures and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Continuous evaluation is done on estimates and judgments based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Estimates made in preparing Financial Statements:

(a) Useful life of Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

The Company uses its technical expertise along with historical and industry trends for determining the economic life of an asset/

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

component of an asset. The useful lives are reviewed by management periodically and revised, if appropriate. In case of a revision, the unamortized depreciable amount is charged over the remaining useful life of the assets.

(b) Post-employment benefit plans

  • Employees benefit obligations are measured on the basis of actuarial assumptions which include mortality and withdrawal rates as well as assumptions concerning future developments in discount rates, the rate of salary increases and the inflation rate. The Company considers that the assumptions used to measure its obligations are appropriate and documented. However, any changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the resulting calculations.

  • (c) Expected credit losses on financial assets

The loss allowance on financial assets including trade receivables are based on assumption about the risk of default and expected timing of collection. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the expected credit loss calculation based on Company’s history of credit losses adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions, suit filed cases and credit information of customers at the end of each reporting period.

  • (d) Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognizing provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with Ind AS 37, ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’. The evaluation of the likelihood of the contingent events requires best judgment by the management regarding the probability of exposure to potential loss. If circumstances change following unforeseeable developments, this likelihood could alter.

  • (e) Impairment of non-financial assets

The company has used certain judgments and estimation to estimate future projection and discount rate to compute value in used of assets/cash generating units and to assess impairment.

  • (f) Revenue recognition

The company recognised the revenue from contract with customers based on 5 steps model as per Ind AS- 115 which involve judgments relating to identification of contracts with customers, identification of distinct performance obligation, determination of transaction price with respect to identified performance obligation, appropriateness of the basis used to recognise revenue and when the control of goods and services are being transferred.

  • b) Company has claimed the losses pertaining to Modern Denim Limited in its income tax return from AY 2017-18, with which the company has proposed amalgamation. Income Tax Department has completed assessment for Assessment Year 2017-18 and 2018-19 and has disallowed such losses claimed pursuant to proposed amalgamation pending approval from concerned authorities. However, the Company has filed appeal against the said order before CIT (Appeals) which is pending. The Company is confident for favourable order as it has received relief in previous years in similar matter.

  • v) Income tax department had completed assessments for A.Y. 2008-09 to 2018-19 wherein assessments on substantive basis were done with NIL liability by allowing losses of Modern Terry Towel Ltd. (the amalgamated entity) and simultaneously assessments on protective basis were also done (except for A.Y. 2014-15, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19) presuming that no amalgamation had taken place. Since amalgamation scheme have been sanctioned by the Hon’ble BIFR vide its order dated 28.07.2016, protective assessment orders passed by the department have become ineffective and substantive assessment orders are prevailed. However, effect of BIFR order is yet to be given by the department for which company is taking necessary steps. There is no recoverable demand as on date.

i) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers and other counter parties, taking into account financial conditions, current economic trends and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of financial assets. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed based on such information.

Financial assets are written off when there are no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as income in the statement of profit and loss.

The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trend and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. The Company provides loss allowance on trade receivables using life time expected credit loss and as per simplified approach.

The ageingof trade receivables is as below: (` in Lacs)

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the members of Modern Insulators Limited

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements Qualified Opinion

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Modern Insulators Limited (the ‘Holding Company’) and its one wholly owned subsidiary company (the Holding Company and its subsidiary together referred to as the ‘Group’) and its two joint ventures, which comprise the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2024 , the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Consolidated Financial Statements’).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and based on consideration of the reports of the other auditors on separate financial statements and on the other financial information of the joint ventures referred to in “Other Matters” section of our report, and except for the effect of the matters described in “Basis for Qualified Opinion” section of our report, the aforesaid consolidated financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the ‘Act’) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group and its joint ventures as at 31 March 2024, their consolidated profit (including Other Comprehensive Income), their consolidated cash flows and the consolidated changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Key Audit Matters

Measurement, presentation and disclosure of allowance for Expected Credit Losses (ECL) on trade receivables

  • The Company is required to recognize allowance for ECL on trade receivables due to the credit risks associated with each individual trade receivable.

  • Management determines the allowance for ECL on trade receivables by reviewing customers ageing profile, historical loss adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions, credit history and suit filed cases for additional allowance.

  • The determination of allowance for ECL is subjective and requires management to make judgements and assumptions, hence this is considered as key audit matter.

  • Refer note no. 1, 1A and 8 to the consolidated financial statements.

Information other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report thereon

The Holding Company’s Board of Directors / Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s annual report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements, standalone financial statements and our auditor’s reports thereon.

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

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated 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. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

Provision for taxation including interest estimated at Rs.2209.77 lacs for the year ended 31 March 2024 (Previous Year Rs.1762.36 lacs; upto the year Rs.9929.02 lacs) has not been made in accounts of the Holding Company in view of the proposed amalgamation under the provisions of Companies Act, 2013. (Refer note no. 34(iv)(a))

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements” section of our report. We are independent of the Group and its joint ventures in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI’) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the rules made thereunder and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by other auditors in terms of their report referred to in “Other matters” section of our report, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment and based on the consideration of reports of the other auditors on separate financial statements and other financial information of the joint ventures, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion, on these matters. In addition to what has been stated in the “Basis for Qualified Opinion” section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to the following:

  • Tested effectiveness of controls with respect to (i) development of methodology for allowance for expected credit losses, (ii) completeness and accuracy of the information used and (iii) computation of allowance for expected credit losses.

  • Tested sample of the data used in the model to the underlying accounting records.

  • Evaluated the ECL model calculations, agreeing the data inputs and checking the mathematical accuracy of the calculations.

  • Assessed the key inputs and assumptions used

  • Assessed whether the disclosures in the financial statements are adequate.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been approved by the Holding Company’s Board of Directors. The Holding Company’s Board of Directors / Management is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance, consolidated cash flows and consolidated changes in equity of the Group and its joint ventures in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS specified under section 133 of the Act. The Holding Company’s Board of Directors / Management is also responsible for ensuring accuracy of records including financial information considered necessary for the preparation and presentation of consolidated financial statements.

with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Group and its joint ventures and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 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. These financial statements have been used for the purpose of the consolidated financial statements by the Board of Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.

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

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

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

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

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

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Holding Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Directors / Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group and its joint ventures to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

  • conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained upto the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group and its joint ventures 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.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities within the Group and its joint ventures, to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the financial statements of which we are independent auditors. For the other entities included in consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities included in consolidated financial statements of which we are independent auditors, regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. 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 consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024 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 Matters

We did not audit the annual financial statements of one joint venture, consolidated in the financial statements, which has been audited by its independent auditors, whose financial information (before eliminating intercompany balances/transactions) reflects total assets of Rs.44.20 lacs as at 31 March 2024, total revenue of Rs.7.87 lacs, net loss after tax Rs.36.09 lacs for the year ended as on 31 March 2024, as considered in the financial statements. These annual financial statements have been audited by other auditors whose audit report has been furnished to us by the Holding Company’s Board of Directors, and our opinion on consolidated financial statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of this joint venture, and our report in terms of section 143(3) of the Act, in so far as it relates to the aforementioned joint venture, are based solely on the audit report of such other auditors. According to the information and explanations give to us by the management, this financial statement is not material to the Group.

ANNEXURE A FORMING PART OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

Referred to in the report of even date of the Auditors to the members of Modern Insulators Limited on Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements of Modern Insulators Limited (the ‘Holding Company’) and its one wholly owned subsidiary company (the Holding Company and its subsidiary company together referred to as the ‘Group’) as of 31 March 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Modern Insulators Limited (the ‘Holding Company’) and its subsidiary company which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The respective Board of Directors / Management of Holding Company and its subsidiary company are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial controls over financial reporting criteria established by the respective Companies considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the ‘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 (the ‘Act’).

Auditors’ Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of Holding Company and its subsidiary company based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI and Standards on Auditing prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial control with reference to financial statements. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were 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 with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial

controls with reference to financial statements of Holding Company and its subsidiary company, as aforesaid.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

A company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with 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 with reference to financial statements

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

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and based on the reports, the Holding Company and its subsidiary company have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements and such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at 31 March 2024, based on the internal financial control over financial reporting criteria established by the Holding Company and its subsidiary company considering the essential components of internal controls stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.

~~Insulators Limited~~

Notes forming part of consolidated financial statements Significant accounting policies

CORPORATE INFORMATION

Modern Insulators Limited (the 'Company or the Holding Company'), its subsidiary and joint venture (the Holding Company and its subsidiary and joint venture together referred to as the 'Group')engaged in the business of manufacturing insulators, terry towels and EPC projects.

Note no. 1: Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of preparation

  • (i) The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and other relevant provisions of the Act. The accounting policies are applied consistently to all the periods in the Financial Statements.

  • (ii) The Financial Statements are prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention except (i) claims of customers & others which are accounted for as and when paid/settled and (ii)financial assets and liabilities (including derivatives instruments) that are measured at fair value as required by relevant Ind AS. The methods used to measure fair values are discussed in notes to financial statements.

  • (iii) The preparation of financial statements requires judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/ materialized. Major estimates are discussed in Note No. 1A.

(b) Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the functional currency of the group and the currency of the primary economic environment in which the group operates.

(c) Principles of consolidation and equity accounting

(i) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group. The Group combines the financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries line by line adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries are been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit and loss, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated balance sheet respectively.

(ii) Joint Ventures

Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, after initially being recognised at cost in the consolidated balance sheet.

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

(iii) Equity Method

Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter tore cognise the Group's share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in statement of profit and loss, and the Group's share of other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from associates and joint ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group's share of losses in an equityaccounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity. Such further losses are disclosed as part of Current Liabilities. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Company and its associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

(d) Classification of assets and liabilities into current and non-current

  • The Group has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of Current and Non-Current classification of its Assets and Liabilities. Classification is done in accordance with Schedule III Division II of the Companies Act, 2013.

For the purpose of Balance Sheet, an asset is classified as current when:

  • (i) It is expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle; or

  • (ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

  • (iii) It is expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • (iv) It is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Similarly, a liability is classified as current when:

  • (i) It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle; or

  • (ii) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

  • (iii) It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

  • (iv) The Group does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

  • Deferred tax assets/liabilities are classified as non-current assets/ liabilities.

(e) Property, plant &equipment (PPE)

Freehold land is carried at Cost. All other items of Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at acquisition or construction cost less accumulated depreciation / amortisation and impairment loss. Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its location and working condition for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs..

If significant parts of an item of PPE have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of PPE. The cost of an item of PPE is recognised as an asset if, and only if, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group in future periods and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Expenditure incurred after the PPE have been put into operations, such as repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which they are incurred.

84

~~Insulators Limited~~

Subsequent expenditure incurred after the PPE have been put into operations is recognized as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits deriving from the cost incurred will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Items such as spare parts, standby equipments and servicing equipments are recognised as PPE when it is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purpose and are expected to be used for more than one year. Otherwise such items are classified as inventory.

An item of PPE is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the assets. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of PPE, is determined as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(f) Expenditure during construction period

Expenditure, net of income earned, during construction (including financing cost related to borrowed funds for construction or acquisition of qualifying PPE) period is included under capital work-in-progress and the same is allocated to the respective PPE on the completion of construction. Advances given towards acquisition or construction of PPE outstanding at each reporting date are disclosed as Capital Advances under "Other Non Current Assets"

(g) Depreciation

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of PPE over its useful life and is provided on a straight-line basis over the useful lives as prescribed in Schedule II to the Act or as per technical evaluation. Leasehold lands are amortised over the lease term unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of lease term.

Depreciable amount for PPE is the cost of PPE less its estimated residual value. The useful life of PPE is the period over which PPE is expected to be available for use by the Group or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the Group.

In case of certain classes of PPE, the Group uses different useful lives than those prescribed in Schedule II to the Act. The useful lives have been assessed based on technical evaluation, taking into consideration the nature of the PPE and the estimated usage of the asset on the basis of management's best estimation of obtaining economic benefits from those classes of assets.

The useful life considered for calculation of depreciation / amortisation for various Asset class are as under:

S.No. Asset class Useful life
1. Leasehold Assets Leaseperiod
2. FactoryBuilding 4-30 Years
3. Non- factorybuilding 4-60 Years
4. Plant & Machinery 1-30 Years
5. Furniture & Fixtures 2-10 Years
6. Office equipments 0-5 Years
7. Vehicles 2-10 Years

Based on technical evaluation, management believes that the useful life as given above best represent the period over which the management expects to use these assets.

Depreciation on additions is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date of installation or acquisition and in case of Projects from the date of commencement of commercial production.

Depreciation on deductions/disposals is provided on a pro-rata basis up to the date of deduction/disposal.

(h) Intangible assets and amortization

Internally generated intangible assets

Expenditure incurred on development is capitalized if such expenditure leads to creation of any intangible asset, otherwise, such expenditure is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. PPE procured for research and development activities are capitalised.

Intangible assets acquired separately

Intangible assets acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. The Group determines the amortisation period as the period over which the future economic benefits will flow to the Group 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.

An item of intangible asset is de-recognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the assets. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of intangible asset, is determined as the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

The useful life considered for calculation of depreciation / amortisation for various Asset class are as under:

Asset class Useful life
Computer Software 1-3 Years

Based on technical evaluation, management believes that the useful life as given above best represent the period over which the management expects to use these assets.

Intangible asset having definite life are amortised on systematic basis over their useful life. If life of any intangible asset is indefinite then it is not amortised but tested for impairment loss at the end of each reporting date.

(i)

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, development or erection of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of such asset till such time the asset is ready for its intended use and borrowing cost are being incurred. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

(j) Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Raw material, stores and spare parts and packing materials are considered to be realisable at cost, if the finished products, in which they will be used, are expected to be sold at or above cost. The cost is computed on weighted average basis.

Cost of finished goods and work-in-progress includes cost of conversion based on normal capacity and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Spare parts, other than those capitalised as PPE are carried as inventories.

The diminution in the value of obsolete, unserviceable and surplus stores & spares is ascertained after review and if found material, suitable provision is made / written down based on technical evaluation, its recoverable value and management’s best estimate.

(k) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks, cash in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in

85

~~Insulators Limited~~

value.

(l) Government grants Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all associated conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the related asset.

(m) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources, that can be reliably estimated, will be required to settle such an obligation.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows to net present value 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.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligations. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and are adjusted to reflect the management’s best estimate.

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, is disclosed as a contingent liability. Contingent liabilities are also disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non -occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current management estimate.

Claims against the Group where the possibility of any outflow of resources in settlement is remote, are not disclosed as contingent liabilities.

Contingent assets are not recognised in financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and is recognised.

(n) Foreign currency transactions and translations

Transactions in foreign currencies, other than the Group’s functional currency are recognised at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not translated.

Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which these arise.

(o) Revenue recognition

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

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

  • (i) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance; or

  • (ii) The Group’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or

  • (iii) The Group’s performance does not create an asset with an

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

alternative use to the Group and an entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

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

If the Group has any contract wherein the period between transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year, transaction price is adjusted for the time value of money.

(p) Other operating revenues / other income

  • (i) Income from services is recognized (net of GST as applicable) based on the services rendered in accordance with the terms of contracts.

  • (ii) For all financial instruments measured at amortized cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset.

  • (iii) Interest income for all financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

  • (iv) Dividend income is accounted for when the right to receive the income is established.

  • (v) Export incentives under various schemes are recognized in the year of export.

(q) Employee Benefits

Short term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations are recognized as an expense on accrual basis.

Defined contribution plans

Defined contribution plans are those plans in which an entity pays fixed contribution into separate entities and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident fund and employee state insurance are defined contribution plans in which group pays a fixed contribution and will have no further obligation.

Defined benefit plans

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan.

Group pays Gratuity as per provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their services in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.

The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a liability to the Group, the present value of liability is recognized as provision for employee benefit. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income in the period in which they arise.

Other long-term employee benefits

Benefits under the Group’s leave encashment constitute other long term employee benefits.

The Group’s net obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods, that benefit is discounted to determine its present value and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian

86

~~Insulators Limited~~

government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in the Statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise.

(r) Research and development expenditure

Revenue expenditure on research and development is charged as an expense in the year in which it is incurred under the respective heads of accounts. Expenditure which results in the creation of capital assets is capitalised and depreciation is provided on such assets as applicable.

(s) Income taxes

Income Tax expenses comprise current tax and deferred tax charge or credit.

Current Tax is measured on the basis of estimated taxable income for the current accounting period in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and other applicable tax laws.

Deferred tax is provided, on all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset, if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent it is no longer probable. Income tax expenses relating to items recognised directly in equity or OCI is recognised in equity or OCI and not in the Statement Profit and Loss.

(t) Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases, when the terms of the lease, transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as Operating Leases.

Operating Lease: Lease rentals are charged or recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance Lease: Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets of the Group at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation. Finance charges are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the Group’s policy on borrowing costs.

(u) Impairment of non-financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of non-financial assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

(v) Impairment of financial assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognizing the impairment loss on financial assets including trade receivables. Expected credit loss is the difference between the contractual cash flows and the cash flows the entity expects to receive using effective interest rate.

Loss allowance for trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. For other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses unless there is significant increase in the credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime expected credit losses. Lifetime expected credit losses are expected credit losses that result from all possible defaults over the expected life of financial instrument. Lifetime expected credit losses are computed based on provision matrix which takes into account historical credit losses adjusted for forward looking information, suit filed cases and credit information of customers.

(w) Segment reporting

Identification of Segments

Operating Segments are identified based on monitoring of operating results by the Board of Directors separately for the purpose of making decision about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on profit or loss and is measured consistently with profit or loss of the Group.

Operating Segments are identified based on the nature of products and services, the different risks and returns and the internal business reporting system.

Segment Policies

The Group prepares its segment information in conformity with the accounting policies adopted for preparing and presenting the financial statements of the Group as a whole.

(x) Material prior period errors

Material prior period errors are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior periods presented in which the error occurred. If the error occurred before the earliest prior period presented, the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest prior period presented, are restated.

(y) Earnings Per Share (EPS)

The basic EPS is computed by dividing the profit after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

For the purpose of calculating diluted EPS, profit after tax for the year attributable to the equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

(z) Fair value Measurement

The Group measures financial instruments, such as investments and

87

~~Insulators Limited~~

derivatives at fair value at each reporting date.

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

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

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

  • A fair value measurement of a non financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Group uses valuation technique that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

Fair values are categorized into different levels in the hierarchy as under:

  • Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

  • Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

  • Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

(aa)Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

i) Initial Recognition: Financial assets and Financial liabilities

  • Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss.

ii) Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets

  • The Groupclassifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of following:

  • the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and

  • the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.

At amortised cost:

  • A financial asset shall be classified and measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:

  • the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and

  • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

  • After initial recognition, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using expected interest rate (EIR)

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

method. In case of financial assets at amortised costs, interest income, foreign exchange gain or loss and impairment are recognized in Statement of profit and loss.

At fair value through OCI:

A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:

  • the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and

  • the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Where the Group has elected to present the fair value gain on equity instruments in other comprehensive income, there is no subsequent classification of fair value gain or losses to profit and loss account. Dividend from such instruments is recognized in profit and loss account as other income where right to receive is established.

At fair value through Profit or Loss:

A financial asset shall be classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss other than those measured at amortised cost or at fair value through OCI.

All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

Impairment of financial assets:

Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. In case of trade receivables, the Group follows the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments for recognition of impairment loss allowance. The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial asset. The Group’s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time credit expected losses. The Group calculates the expected credit losses on trade receivables using a provision matrix on the basis of its historical credit loss experience.

Derecognition of financial assets:

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises associated liabilities. On derecognition of a financial asset, other than investments classified as FVOCI, in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.

iii) Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or ‘other financial liabilities’

Financial Liabilities at FVTPL:

Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or are designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Other Financial Liabilities:

~~Insulators Limited~~

Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of Financial Liabilities:

The Group derecognises a financial liability 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 exchange or modification is treated as derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

The difference between the carrying amount of financial liability derecognized and consideration paid and payable is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

On derecognition of equity investments classified as FVOCI, accumulated gains or loss recognised in OCI is transferred to retained earnings.

(bb) Financial liabilities and equity instruments

  • Classification as debt or equity

    • Debt and equity instruments issued by the group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
  • Equity instruments

    • An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a group are recognised at the proceeds received.
  • (cc) Derivative financial instruments

  • The Group enters into derivative financial instruments viz. foreign exchange forward contracts to manage foreign exchange risks. The Group does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasuredat their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Note no. 1A. Significant Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, the accompanying disclosures and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Continuous evaluation is done on estimates and judgments based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a

==> picture [46 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [73 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Estimates made in preparing Financial Statements:

(a) Useful life of Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

The Group uses its technical expertise along with historical and industry trends for determining the economic life of an asset/ component of an asset. The useful lives are reviewed by management periodically and revised, if appropriate. In case of a revision, the unamortized depreciable amount is charged over the remaining useful life of the assets.

(b) Post-employment benefit plans

Employees benefit obligations are measured on the basis of actuarial assumptions which include mortality and withdrawal rates as well as assumptions concerning future developments in discount rates, the rate of salary increases and the inflation rate. The Group considers that the assumptions used to measure its obligations are appropriate and documented. However, any changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the resulting calculations.

(c) Expected credit losses on financial assets

The loss allowance on financial assets including trade receivables are based on assumption about the risk of default and expected timing of collection. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the expected credit loss calculation based on Company’s history of credit losses adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions, suit filed cases and credit information of customers at the end of each reporting period.

(d) Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognizing provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with Ind AS 37, ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’. The evaluation of the likelihood of the contingent events requires best judgment by the management regarding the probability of exposure to potential loss. If circumstances change following unforeseeable developments, this likelihood could alter.

(e) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group has used certain judgments and estimation to estimate future projection and discount rate to compute value in used of assets/cash generating units and to assess impairment.

(f) Revenue recognition

The Group recognised the revenue from contract with customers based on 5 steps model as per Ind AS- 115 which involve judgments relating to identification of contracts with customers, identification of distinct performance obligation, determination of transaction price with respect to identified performance obligation, appropriateness of the basis used to recognise revenue and when the control of goods and services are being transferred.

  • (b) Holding Company has claimed the losses pertaining to Modern Denim Limited in its income tax return from AY 2017-18, with which the holding company has proposed amalgamation. Income Tax Department has completed assessment for Assessment Year 2017-18 and 2018-19 and has disallowed such losses claimed pursuant to proposed amalgamation pending approval from concerned authorities. However, the Holding Company has filed appeal against the said order before CIT (Appeals) which is pending. The Holding Company is confident for favourable order as it has received relief in previous years in similar matter.

  • v) Income tax department had completed assessments for A.Y. 2008-09 to 2018-19 of holding company wherein assessments on substantive basis were done with Nil liability by allowing losses of Modern Terry Towel Ltd. (the amalgamated entity) and simultaneously assessments on protective basis were also done (except for A.Y. 2014-15, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19) presuming that no amalgamation had taken place. Since amalgamation scheme have been sanctioned by the Hon’ble BIFR vide its order dated 28.07.2016, protective assessment orders passed by the department have become ineffective and substantive assessment orders are prevailed. However, effect of BIFR order is yet to be given by the department for which Holding Company is taking necessary steps. There is no recoverable demand as on date.

Note No. 41 : Financial Risk Management

The Group’s Financial Risk Management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Group’s financial risk management is set by the Managing Board. The Group’s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade payables and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the group’s operations. The group’s principal financial assets include trade & other receivables, investments, cash and short term deposits.

i) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the Group periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers and other counter parties, taking into account financial conditions, current economic trends and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of financial assets. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed based on such information.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as income in the statement of profit and loss.

The Group measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trend and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. The Group provides loss allowance on trade receivables using life time expected credit loss and as per simplified approach.

The Ageing of trade receivables is as below:
