The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other

irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, Management and Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls systems in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
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 standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

ANNEXURE B TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Referred to in paragraph 2(vii) under “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” of our report on even date to the members of the Company on standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025
We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2025 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 management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal controls with reference to standalone financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (‘Guidance Note’) issued by 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 Act.
Auditor’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both issued by ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to standalone financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system with reference to standalone financial statements.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Standalone Financial Statements
A company’s internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of standalone financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial controls with reference to standalone 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 standalone 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 standalone 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 standalone financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to standalone financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2025 based on the internal controls with reference to standalone financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal controls stated in the Guidance Note.

POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NOTES ON ACCOUNTS ON STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Background
Polychem Limited is engaged in the manufacturing of specialty chemicals and property development. The Company has manufacturing plant in India and sells it in Domestic as well as International market. The Company is Public Limited Company domiciled in India and is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
1.00 Material Accountng Policies
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the presentation of these standalone financial statements.
1.01 BASIS OF PREPARATION
Compliance with Ind AS :
The standalone financial statements comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”), and relevant rules issued there under. In accordance with proviso to the Rule 4A of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the terms used in these financial statements are in accordance with the definitions and other requirements specified in the applicable Accounting standards.
Authorizaton of standalone fnancial statements
The standalone financial statements were approved for issue by Board Of Directors on May 14, 2025.
Historical cost conventon:
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following items, which are measured on an alternative basis on each reporting date:
-
certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value; and
-
defined benefit plans – fair value of plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit obligations.
1.02 FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY
These standalone financial statements are presented in India Rupees (INR), which is also the company’s functional currency. All amounts disclosed in the standalone financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest Lakhs, except where otherwise indicated.
1.03 CURRENT VERSUS NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per Company’s normal operating cycle. Based on the nature of operations, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current and noncurrent classification of assets and liabilities.
1.04 MEASUREMENT OF FAIR VALUES
A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and
non-financial assets and liabilities.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
-
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
-
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
-
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
1.05 USE OF JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES & ASSUMPTIONS
While preparing standalone financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, the management makes certain estimates and
~~61~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
assumptions that require subjective and complex judgments. These judgments affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the statement of financial position date and the reported amount of income and expenses for the reporting period. Financial reporting results rely on our estimate of the effect of certain matters that are inherently uncertain. Future events rarely develop exactly as forecast and the best estimates require adjustments, as actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The management continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the standalone financial statements are as below:
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
-
i) Financial instruments; (Refer note 4.07)
-
ii) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; (Refer note 1.07)
-
iii) Valuation of inventories; (Refer note 1.11)
-
iv) Measurement of defined benefit obligations, key actuarial assumptions; (Refer note 4.03)
-
v) Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets; (Refer note 2.06) and
-
vi) Contingencies. (Refer note 4.02)
1.06 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
Functonal and presentaton currency
The Company’s standalone financial statements are prepared in INR, which is also the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
Transactons and balances
Monetary items
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Non – Monetary items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
1.07 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Recogniton and Measurement
Property, Plant and Equipment (including capital work-in-progress) is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price, non-refundable taxes, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and conditions necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, finance cost. The purchase price is the aggregate amount paid and the fair value of any other consideration given to acquire the asset.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
The residual values and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment are reviewed at each financial year end, and changes, if any, are accounted prospectively.
~~62~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
Depreciaton on Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation on Property, Plant & Equipment is provided on written down value method. In accordance with requirements prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013, the Company has assessed the estimated useful lives of its Property, Plant & Equipment and has adopted the useful lives and residual value as prescribed in Schedule II.
In case of additions/deletions during the year, the depreciation is computed from the month in which such assets are put to use and upto the previous month of sale or disposal as the case may be. In case of impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
All assets costing up to Rs. 5,000 (in ₹ ) are fully depreciated in the year of capitalization.
Derecogniton of Property, Plant and Equipment
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in statement of profit and loss.
1.08 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Recogniton and measurement
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired are recognised only if they are separately identifiable and the Company expects to receive future economic benefits arising out of them. Such assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Intangible Assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortsaton of intangible assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised on a straight line basis over their useful economic lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at each year end. The amortisation expense on Intangible assets with finite lives and impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Derecogniton of intangible assets
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.
1.09 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS (Other than Financial Assets)
Carrying amount of tangible assets, intangible assets and investments in subsidiary (which is carried at cost) is tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.
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. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or Company’s assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
1.10 LEASES
As a Lessee
The Company, as a lessee, recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.
The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified
~~63~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term ending within 12 months and the Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
1.11 INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued as follows:
Raw materials, packing materials, work-in-process and finished goods are valued at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. Cost of raw materials and packing materials is determined on FIFO basis. Cost of work-in-process and finished goods is determined on the basis of absorption costing method.
Property under development
Property under development represents free hold land converted into stock-in-trade on the basis of valuation made by approved valuer and development expenses incurred thereon.
1.12 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.
For the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, short-term deposits as defined above, bank overdrafts and short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value as they are considered as an integral part of the Company’s management. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings under current liabilities in the balance sheet.
1.13 INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by another entity. An investor controls an investee if and only if the investor has the following; (i) Power over the investee, (ii) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and (iii) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.
The Company’s investments in its subsidiary is accounted at cost and reviewed for impairment at each reporting date.
1.14 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Inital Recogniton and Measurement – Financial Assets and Financial Liabilites
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 recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
Classifcaton and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of following:
~~64~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
-
the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and
-
the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Amortzed Cost:
A financial asset is classified and measured at amortized 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.
FVTOCI:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTOCI 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.
-
Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses and interest revenue which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
FVTPL:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortized cost or at FVTOCI.
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
Impairment of Financial Assets :
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortized cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Expected Credit Losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
-
The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date);or
-
Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument).
For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
For other assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.
Classifcaton and Subsequent measurement: Financial Liabilites
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade payables and other financial liabilities.
Financial Liabilites 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 financial liabilities held for trading are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
~~65~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
Other Financial Liabilites:
Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Derecogniton of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilites:
The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset. If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. Financial liability is also derecognised, when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on modified terms is recognised at fair value.
Write-of:
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when there are no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. The Company individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Company expects no significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
Ofsetng Financial Instruments:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a current pre-tax rate. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contngent Liability
Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the consolidated financial statements.
Contngent Asset
Contingent asset is not recognised in standalone 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 recognized. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.

SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
1.16 REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company derives revenue primarily from manufacture of Polymers & Co-Polymers business comprising of Styrene, Divinyl Benzene, Acrylic Acid and Acrylates.
Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue is measured based on the fair value of consideration specified in the contract with customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
Goods and Service Tax (GST) collected on behalf of the government is excluded from Revenue, as it is not an economic benefit to the Company.
Other Operatng Revenue
Other Operating Income consists of revenue generated from export incentives, duty drawbacks, and realized exchange gains. This income is recognized when performance obligations, as specified are fulfilled, and there is no significant uncertainty regarding the amount of consideration to be received
1.17 RECOGNITION OF INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME
Interest
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate method.
Dividend
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
1.18 TAXES ON INCOME
Current Tax
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of estimated taxable income and tax credits computed in accordance with the provisions of the relevant tax laws and based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside the Statement of Profit and Loss is recognized outside the Statement of Profit and Loss. Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at balance sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and liabilities where the Company have a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities.
1.19 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Short-term obligatons
Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and expensed as the related service is provided. A
~~67~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Post-employment obligatons
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
-
defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
-
defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Defned Beneft Plans
The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss as past service cost.
Defned contributon plans
The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards government administered provident fund scheme. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognized as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments are available.
Other long-term employee beneft obligatons
The liabilities for leave are not expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Measurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
1.20 EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit (or loss) attributable to the owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to existing shareholders, share split and reverse share split (consolidation of shares).
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit (considered in determination of basic earnings per share) after considering the effect of interest and other financing costs or income (net of attributable taxes) associated with dilutive potential equity shares by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share adjusted for the weighted average number of equity shares that would have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.21 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. As at March 31, 2025, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards which are applicable to the Company.

The gratuity plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount equivalent to 15 days salary for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of Five (5) continuous years of service as governed by the Gratuity Act. The Present value of the defined benefit obligations and related current service cost were measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuation being carried out at each Balance Sheet date. The Gratuity Plan is administered by “Polychem Limited Employees Group Gratuity Scheme” & “Life Insurance Corporation of India” that is legally seperated from the Company.
The company expects to pay Rs. 40,28,120/- in contributions to defined benefit plans in financial year 2025-26.
Investment Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to government bond yields. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently the plan has investment with LIC of India.

(Rs. in Lakhs unless otherwise stated)
Interest Risk A decrease in the interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments. Longevity Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability. Salary Risk The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan partcipants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan partcipants will increase the plan’s liability. 3) Principal assumptons used for the purpose of actuarial valuaton:

4.07 Financial Instruments
- i) Methods & assumptons used to estmate the fair values The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
-
(a) The carrying amounts of receivables and payables which are short term in nature such as trade receivables, other bank balances, deposits, loans to employees, trade payables, other financial liabilities and cash and cash equivalents are considered to be the same as their fair values.
-
(b) The fair values for long term security deposits given and remaining non current financial assets were calculated based on cash flows discounted using a current rate at 9%. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs.
-
(c) For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.
ii) Categories of fnancial instruments
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: directly or indirectly observable market inputs, other than Level 1 inputs; and Level 3: inputs which are not based on observable market data

ii) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company has consistently generated sufficient cash flows from its operations and believes that these cash flows along with its current cash and cash equivalents and funding arrangements are sufficient to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF POLYCHEM LIMITED
Report on the audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Polychem Limited (hereinafter referred to as “the Holding Company”) and its subsidiary (the Holding Company and its subsidiary together referred to as “the Group”) comprising of the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of material 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 the consideration of the report of the other auditor on standalone financial statements and on the other financial information of the subsidiary, 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 Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, (“Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group as at March 31, 2025, its consolidated profit, their consolidated total comprehensive income , their consolidated changes in equity and their consolidated cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs 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 in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements under the provisions of the Act and rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and Code of Ethics issued by ICAI. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in the Other Matters section below is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment and based on the consideration of the reports of the other auditors on standalone financial statements and on the other financial information of the subsidiary, were of most significance in our audit of the Consolidated financial statements of the current period. 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.
We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of other information.The other information comprises the information included in Annual Report but does not include the consolidated financial statement, standalone financial statement and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained 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.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance (including other comprehensive income), consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group, in accordance with Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. The respective Governing Bodies of the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the consolidated financial statements by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the respective Management and Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the ability of the respective entities 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 and management either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
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 SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

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 A TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Referred to in paragraph 1(vii) under “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” of our Independent Auditor’s Report on even date to the members of Polychem Limited (“the Holding Company) on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025:
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company as of and for the year ended March 31, 2025, we have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of Polychem Limited (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Holding Company’) and its subsidiary, which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The respective Board of Directors of the Holding company, its subsidiary, which are companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal controls with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Holding Company, considering the essential components of internal controls stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (“Guidance Note”) issued by 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 respective company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statement of the Holding Company, its subsidiary, which are companies incorporated in India, based on our audit. We conducted our audit

POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to Consolidated financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls 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 and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditor in terms of their report referred to in the “Other Matters” paragraph below is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Holding Company’s internal financial control system with reference to financial statements.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements
A company’s internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Holding Company, its subsidiary, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to Consolidated financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2025 based on the internal controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements criteria established by the Holding Company, considering the essential components of internal controls stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.
Other Matters
Our aforesaid report under section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated financial statements, in so far as it relates standalone financial statements of subsidiary, which are company incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding report of the auditor of such company incorporated in India.

SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NOTES ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
These material accounting policies and notes to accounts form part of the Consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025. The Consolidated financial statements comprises of Polychem Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary (Gujarat Poly Electronics Limited (collectively the “Group”).
Background
Polychem Limited (“the Company”) is engaged in the manufacturing of specialty chemicals and property development. The Company has manufacturing plant in India and sells it in Domestic as well as International market. The Company is Public Limited Company domiciled in India and is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
1.00 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This note provides a list of the material accounting policies adopted in the presentation of these consolidated financial statements.
1.01 BASIS OF PREPARATION
(i) Compliance with Ind AS
The consolidated financial statements comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”), and relevant rules issued there under. In accordance with proviso to the Rule 4A of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the terms used in these financial statements are in accordance with the definitions and other requirements specified in the applicable Accounting Standards.
Authorizaton of Consolidated fnancial statements
The consolidated financial statements were approved for issue by Board Of Directors on May 14, 2025.
(ii) Historical cost conventon
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following items, which are measured on an alternative basis on each reporting date:
-
certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value; and
-
defined benefit plans – fair value of plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit obligations.
1.02 FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY
These consolidated financial statements are presented in India Rupees (INR), which is also the company’s functional currency. All amounts disclosed in the Consolidated financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest Lakhs, except where otherwise indicated.
1.03 CURRENT VERSUS NON-CURRENT CLASSIFICATION
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per Company’s normal operating cycle. Based on the nature of operations, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities.
1.04 MEASUREMENT OF FAIR VALUES
A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
-
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
-
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
-
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
~~105~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
1.05 USE OF JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES & ASSUMPTIONS
While preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, the management makes certain estimates and assumptions that require subjective and complex judgments. These judgments affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the statement of financial position date and the reported amount of income and expenses for the reporting period. Financial reporting results rely on our estimate of the effect of certain matters that are inherently uncertain. Future events rarely develop exactly as forecast and the best estimates require adjustments, as actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The management continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are as below:
Key sources of estmaton uncertainty
a) Financial instruments; (Refer note 4.07)
b) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; (Refer note 1.07)
c) Valuation of inventories; (Refer note 1.11)
d) Measurement of defined benefit obligations, key actuarial assumptions; (Refer note 4.03)
e) Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets; (Refer note 2.06) and
f) Contingencies. (Refer note 4.02)
Critcal accountng judgments
The Company has equity stake in its subsidiary for strategic reasons concerning its operation. The relationship with this entity have been determined based on principles laid down in Ind AS 110 – Consolidated Financial Statements.
1.06 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
(i) Functonal and presentaton currency
The group’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in INR, which is also the group’s functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactons and balances
Monetary items
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Non – Monetary items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
1.07 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Recogniton and Measurement
Property, Plant and Equipment (including capital work-in-progress) is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price, non-refundable taxes, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location and conditions necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of any decommissioning obligation, if any, finance cost. The purchase price is the aggregate amount paid and the fair value of any other consideration given to acquire the asset.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
The residual values and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment are reviewed at each financial year end, and changes, if any, are accounted prospectively.
Depreciaton on Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation on Property, Plant & Equipment is provided on written down value method. In accordance with requirements prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013, the Company has assessed the estimated useful lives of its Property, Plant & Equipment and has adopted the useful lives and residual value as prescribed in Schedule II.
All assets costing up to Rs. 5,000 (in ₹ ) are fully depreciated in the year of capitalization.
The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
In case of additions or deletions during the year, depreciation is computed from the month in which such assets are put to use and up to previous month of sale, disposal or held for sale as the case may be. In case of impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
Derecogniton of Property, Plant and Equipment
An item of Property, Plant and Equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of an item of Property, Plant and Equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in statement of profit and loss.
1.08 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Recogniton and Measurement
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired are recognised only if they are separately identifiable and the Company expects to receive future economic benefits arising out of them. Such assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Intangible Assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortsaton of intangible assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised on a straight line basis over their useful economic lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at each year end. The amortisation expense on Intangible assets with finite lives and impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss
Derecogniton of intangible assets
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
1.09 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS (Other than Financial Assets)
Carrying amount of tangible assets, intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.
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. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group’s assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
1.10 LEASES
As a Lessee
The Group, as a lessee, recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.
The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Group has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset.
The Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses incremental borrowing rate.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term ending within 12 months and the Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
1.11 INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued as follows:
Raw materials, packing materials, work-in-process and finished goods are valued at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. Cost of raw materials and packing materials is determined on FIFO basis. Cost of work-in-process and finished goods is determined on the basis of absorption costing method.
Property under development
Property under development represents free hold land converted into stock-in-trade on the basis of valuation made by approved valuer and development expenses incurred thereon.
1.12 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to insignificant risk of change in value.
~~108~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
For the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, short-term deposits as defined above, bank overdrafts and short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value as they are considered as an integral part of the Company’s management. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings under current liabilities in the balance sheet.
1.13 PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Subsidiary
Subsidiary is an entity 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. Subsidiary is fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The Group combines the financial statements of the parent and its subsidiary line by line adding together like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. Intergroup 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.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiary are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit and loss, consolidated statement of changes in equity and balance sheet respectively. Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the noncontrolling interests even if this results in the noncontrolling interests having a deficit balance.
1.14 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Inital Recogniton and Measurement – Financial Assets and Financial Liabilites
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 the Statement of Profit and Loss.
However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
Classifcaton and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets
The group classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) 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.
Amortsed Cost:
A financial asset is 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.
~~109~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
FVTOCI:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTOCI 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.
Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses and interest revenue which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
FVTPL:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortised cost or at FVTOCI.
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
The group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Expected Credit Losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
-
The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date);or
-
Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the life of the financial instrument).
For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company uses historical default rates to determine impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are reviewed and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
For other assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.
Classifcaton and Subsequent measurement: Financial Liabilites
The group’s financial liabilities include trade payables and other financial liabilities.
Financial Liabilites 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 financial liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Other Financial Liabilites:
Other financial liabilities (Including borrowings, trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
~~110~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Derecogniton of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilites:
The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset. If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. Financial liability is also derecognised, when its terms are modified and the cash flows of the modified liability substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on modified terms is recognised at fair value.
Write-of:
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off when there no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. The Company individually makes an assessment with respect to the timing and amount of write-off based on whether there is a reasonable expectation of recovery. The Company expects no significant recovery from the amount written off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.
Ofsetng Financial Instruments:
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Balance Sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the group or the counterparty.
1.15 PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND CONTINGENT ASSETS
PROVISION
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a current pretax rate. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
CONTINGENT LIABILITY
Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the consolidated financial statements.
~~111~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
CONTINGENT ASSET
Contingent asset is not recognised in standalone 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 recognized. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
1.16 REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Group derives revenue primarily from manufacture of Polymers & Co-Polymers business comprising of Divinyl Benzene, Acrylic Acid and Acrylates & deals in Active and Passive electronic components, specializing in Ceramic Capacitors both Single Layer (Disc) and Multilayer (MLCC) in Radial, Axial and SMD configurations.
Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue is measured based on the fair value of consideration specified in the contract with customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties.
Goods and Service Tax (GST) collected on behalf of the government is excluded from Revenue, as it is not an economic benefit to the Company.
Other Operatng Revenue
Other Operating Income consists of revenue generated from export incentives, duty drawbacks, and realized exchange gains. This income is recognized when performance obligations, as specified are fulfilled, and there is no significant uncertainty regarding the amount of consideration to be received.
1.17 RECOGNITION OF INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME
Interest
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate method.
Dividend
Dividends are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group, and the amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
1.18 TAXES ON INCOME
Current Tax
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis of estimated taxable income and tax credits computed in accordance with the provisions of the relevant tax laws and based on the expected outcome of assessments/appeals.
Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
~~112~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit and loss is recognised outside the Statement of Profit and Loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at balance sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and liabilities where the group have a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities.
1.19 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
a) Short-term obligatons
Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis and expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
b) Post-employment obligatons
The group operates the following post-employment schemes:
-
defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
-
defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Defned Beneft Plans
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
Defned contributon plans
The Group makes specified monthly contributions towards government administered provident fund scheme. The group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
~~113~~
POLYCHEM LIMITED
SIXTY - EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
c) Other long-term employee beneft obligatons
The liabilities for leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in statement of profit and loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
1.20 EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit (or loss) attributable to the owners of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to existing shareholders, share split and reverse share split (consolidation of shares).
DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit (considered in determination of basic earnings per share) after considering the effect of interest and other financing costs or income (net of attributable taxes) associated with dilutive potential equity shares by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share adjusted for the weighted average number of equity shares that would have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.21 SEGMENT REPORTING
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in conformity with the accounting policies adopted for the group. Further , inter-segment revenue have been accounted for based on the transaction price agreed to between segments which is primarily market based. Revenue and expenses have been identified to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Revenue and expenses, which relate to the group as a whole and are not allocable to segments on a reasonable basis, have been included under “ Unallocated expenses”.
Deemed cost for Property, Plant and Equipment and intangible assets
The group has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its Property, Plant and Equipment and intangible assets recognised as of the transition date measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as it’s deemed cost as of the transition date.
1.22 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. As at March 31, 2025, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards which are applicable to the Company.

The Group sponsors funded defined benefit plans for qualifying employee. The defined benefit plans are administered by separate fund that are legally separate fund from the entity. The board of the fund is responsible for the investment policy with regard to assets of the fund.
These plans typically expose the Group to Actuarial risks such as : investment risk, interest rate risk, longetivity risk and salary risk. No other post-retirement benefit are provided to the employees.
Investment Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to government bond yields. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently the plan has investment with LIC of India.
Interest Risk A decrease in the interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments. Longevity Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability. Salary Risk The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

4.06 Capital Management Risk management
The Group’s primary objectives in managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern while maximising shareholder value through an optimal capital structure. Capital is actively monitored and comprises total equity, including share capital, reserves and non-controlling interests. The Group maintains a conservative capital structure with minimal debt exposure, currently limited only to lease liabilities under Ind AS 116.
For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes capital and all other equity reserves. In order to maintain or achieve a capital structure that maximizes the shareholder value, the Group allocates its capital for distribution as dividend or re-investment into business based on its long term financial plans. As at March 31, 2025, the Group has only one class of equity shares and has no borrowings other than lease liabilities. Hence, there are no externally imposed capital requirements.
The table below presents the key components of the Group’s capital structure:
| Component | As at March 31, |
|---|---|
| 2025 2024 |
|
| Total Equity Lease Liabilites Net Debt/Equity Rato |
4,959.76 4,525.70 142.21 163.48 0.03 0.04 |
The Group maintains a strong equity base with a negligible debt component, reflected in the low net debt-to-equity ratio of 0.03 as on March 31, 2025 (as on March 31, 2024: 0.04).

*Pending shareholder approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting
The Board has recommended a dividend of ₹20 per share (200% of face value of Rs. 10/- each) for FY 2024-25 (2023-24: ₹30 per share or 300% of face value of Rs. 10/- each). Dividend declarations consider factors including profitability, retained earnings, liquidity position and future capital requirements.
The Group’s capital management approach ensures compliance with statutory requirements while maintaining sufficient resources to support ongoing operations and strategic initiatives. Regular reviews are conducted to assess the adequacy and efficiency of the capital structure in light of changing business needs and market conditions.
4.07 Financial Instruments
(i) Methods & assumptons used to estmate the fair values
- The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
-
(a) The carrying amounts of receivables and payables which are short term in nature such as trade receivables, other bank balances, deposits, loans to employees, trade payables, other financial liabilities and cash and cash equivalents are considered to be the same as their fair values.
-
(b) The fair values for long term security deposits given and remaining non current financial assets were calculated based on cash flows discounted using a current rate at 9%. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs.
-
(c) For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.
(ii) Categories of fnancial instruments
- The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: directly or indirectly observable market inputs, other than Level 1 inputs; and Level 3: inputs which are not based on observable market data
Level 3: inputs which are not based on observable market data |

(ii) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

The Group’s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Group has consistently generated sufficient cash flows from its operations and believes that these cash flows along with its current cash and cash equivalents and funding arrangements are sufficient to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low.
