Notes:
-
- The above results of Usha Martin Limited ("the Company") for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at their respective meetings held on July 26, 2019.
-
- The unaudited standalone financial results have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles provided in Indian Accounting Standard (ind AS) 34 on 'Interim Financial Reporting', the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) under SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirernents} Regulation 2015, as amended.
-
- Pursuant to the Business Transfer Agreement dated September 22, 2018 (subsequent Novation agreement on October 24, 2018) and Supplemental Business Transfer Agreement dated April 7, 2019 and July 3, 2019 respectively with Tata Sponge Iron Limited (TSIL), the Company had transferred its Steel and Bright Bar Business (SBB Business) as a going concern on slump sale basis during the quarter in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in those agreements at a consideration of Rs. 452,500 lakhs subject to net working capital adjustments and debt like items. Out of the aforesaid consideration, an !)mount of Rs. 16,000 lakhs is receivable as at the quarter end that include Rs. 15,000 lakhs in respect of certain parcels of land for which perpetual lease and license agreements have been executed by the Company in favour of TSIL pending completion of on going formalities for registration in the name of TSIL.
Consequent to the above, property, plant and equipment aggregating Rs. 371,461 lakhs, non current liabilities (net of other noncurrent assets) aggregating Rs. 1,534 lakhs and current liabilities (net of current assets) aggregating Rs. 1,34,396 lakhs has been transferred to TSIL.
Resultant profit of Rs. 56,620 lakhs (net of expenses pertaining to disposal of the business of Rs. 16,135 lakhs) on sale of the SBB Business has been recognised in these results under profit for the period from discontinued operations. The Company's current tax obligation arising from such sale has been adjusted against brought forward business losses and unabsorbed depreciation pertaining to prior years in accordance with the provision of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Earnings per share from discontinued operations as disclosed in these results has been determined taking into consideration the aforesaid profit from sale of SBB Business.
In the unaudited standalone financial results, the net results of SBB business has been determined taking into consideration directly attributable and appropriately allocated income and expenditure including interest costs, till April 8, 2019 and June 30, 2019 for Steel business and Iron ore mine / Coal block respectively, being the dates on which these businesses were transferred and has been disclosed separately as discontinued operation as required by Indian Accounting Standard (ind AS) 105 Asset Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and Schedule Ill to the Companies Act, 2013. Consequently, the Company's results for the periods presented pertains to its continuing operations only and for that purpose the results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 had to be restated accordingly.

Notes:
- Pursuant to the Hon'ble Supreme Court order dated September 24, 2014 followed by promulgation of the Coal Mines (Special Provision) Act, 2015 (CMSP Act), the allocation of Lohari and Kathautia coal blocks was cancelled with effect from September 24, 2014 and April 1, 2015 respectively.
Consequently, the Company is carrying an amount of Rs. 11,928 lakhs (net of discounting impact of Rs. 2,453 lakhs and impairment charge of Rs. 809 iakhs) as Assets held for sale/ Advance against land, which consists of assets in the form of land, movable and immovable properties, advances etc. During the previous year, the Company had filed an application before Hon'ble Delhi High Court for refund of Rs. 10,545 lakhs deposited with State of Jharkhand towards acquisition of land which was subsequently de-notified. Based on regular follow-up with the concerned Government authorities, negotiations with the Company to whom the aforesaid Coal Block was subsequently allotted, related judicial ruling, other recourses available to the Company and the advice of the Company's Legal Counsel, management expects to realize at least the carrying values of the aforesaid assets in the near future. The Statutory auditors of the Company have drawn an Emphasis of Matter in their review report in this regard.
- During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company had recognised net deferred tax assets (DTA) of Rs. 23,846 Lakhs as part of continuing business arising mainly on unabsorbed depreciation and brought forward business losses that was then expected to be utilised against long-term capital gain (LTCG) arising from sale of 588 business and against future taxable income of the continuing business. Pursuant to sale of 588 business during the current quarter, the Company has utilised such deferred tax assets to the extent of Rs. 15,838 lakhs against LTCG arising from sale of 588 business. Management believes that balance DTA will be recovered against future taxable income arising from the continuing business.
The earnings per share of continuing operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 are hence not comparable with the earnings per share of the previous periods reported.
- Effective April 1, 2019, the Company has adopted Ind AS 116, 'Leases'. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all lease with a term of more than twelve months, unless the underlying asset is of a low value.
The Company has used the 'modified retrospective approach' for transition from the previous standard Ind AS 17 and consequently, comparatives for previous periods have not been retrospectively adjusted. On transition, the Company has recorded the lease liability at the present value of future lease payments on date of transition discounted using the incremental borrowing rate and has also chosen the practical expedient provided in the standard to measure the right-of-use and corresponding lease liability as on date of lr ansilion.
The adoption of the new standard resulted in recognition of 'Right-of use' asset and an equivalent lease liability as on April 1, 2019. The effect of adoption of Ind AS 116 on the profit before tax, profit for the period and earning per share is not material.
-
- The figures for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 are the balancing figures between the audited figures for the full financial year and unaudited year to date figures up to the third quarter of the relevant financial year which was subjected to limited review.
-
- Previous period figures have been regrouped / rearranged wherever necessary, to conform to current period presentation.

A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
We also performed procedures in accordance with the Circular issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended, to the extent applicable.
-
- The Statement includes the results of the entities as mentioned in Annexure I.

Usha Martin Limited
Notes:
- l. The above consolidated results of Usha Martin Limited ("the Company"} and its nineteen subsidiaries (including ten step-down subsidiaries) (together referred as 'the Group')and three joint ventures (including one step-down joint venture) for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 have been reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at their respective meetings held on July 26, 2019.
-
- The unaudited consolidated financial results have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles provided in Indian Accounting Standard {Ind AS) 34 on 'Interim Financial Reporting', the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 {the Act), as applicable and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India {SEBI) under SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulation 2015, as amended.
-
- Pursuant to the Business Transfer Agreement dated September 22, 2018 (subsequent Novation agreement on October 24, 2018) and Supplemental Business Transfer Agreement dated April 7, 2019 and July 3, 2019 respectively with Tata Sponge Iron Limited (TSIL), the Company had transferred its Steel and Bright Bar Business (SBB Business) as a going concern on slump sale basis during the quarter in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in those agreements at a consideration of Rs. 452,500 lakhs subject to net working capital adjustments and and debt like items. Out of the aforesaid consideration, an amount of Rs. 16,000 lakhs is receivable as at the quarter end that include Rs. 15,000 lakhs in respect of certain parcels of land for which perpetual lease and license agreements have been executed by the Company in favour of TSIL pending completion of on going formalities for registration in the name of TSIL.
Consequent to the above, property, plant and equipment aggregating Rs. 371,461 lakhs, non current liabilities (net of other non-current assets) aggregating Rs. 1,534 lakhs and current liabilities (net of current assets) aggregating Rs. 1,34,396 lakhs has been transferred to TSIL.
Resultant profit of Rs. 56,620 lakhs (net of expenses pertaining to disposal of the business of Rs. 16,135 lakhs) on sale of the SBB Business has been recognised in these results under profit for the period from discontinued operations. The Company's current tax obligation arising from such sale has been adjusted against brought forward business losses and unabsorbed depreciation pertaining to prior years in accordance with the provision of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Earnings per share from discontinued operations as disclosed in these results has been determined taking into consideration the aforesaid profit from sale of SBB Business.
In the unaudited consolidated financial results, the net results of SBB business has been determined taking into consideration directly attributable and appropriately allocated income and expenditure including interest costs, till April 8, 2019 and June 30, 2019 for Steel business and Iron ore mine / Coal block respectively, being the dates on which these businesses were transferred and has been disclosed separately as discontinued operation as required by Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 105 Asset Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and Schedule Ill to the Companies Act, 2013. Consequently, the Group's results for the periods presented pertains to its continuing operations only and for that purpose the results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 had to be restated accordingly.

- Pursuant to the Hon'ble Supreme Court order dated September 24, 2014 followed by promulgation of the Coal Mines (Special Provision) Act, 2015 (CMSP Act), the allocation of Lohari and Kathautia coal blocks was cancelled with effect from September 24, 2014 and April 1, 2015 respectively. Consequently, the Group is carrying an amount of Rs. 11,928 lakhs (net of discounting impact of Rs. 2,453 lakhs and impairment charge of Rs. 809 lakhs) as Assets held for sale/ Advance against land, which consists of assets in the form of land, movable and immovable properties, advances etc. During the previous year, the Company had filed an application before Hon'ble Delhi High Court for refund of Rs. 10,545 lakhs deposited with State of Jharkhand towards acquisition of land which was subsequently de-notified. Based on regular follow-up with the concerned Government authorities, negotiations with the Company to whom the aforesaid Coal Block was subsequently allotted, related judicial ruling, other recourses available to the Company and the advice of the Company's Legal Counsel, management expects to realize at least the carrying values of the aforesaid assets in the near future. The Statutory auditors of the Company have drawn an Emphasis of Matter in their review report in this regard.
-
- During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, the Company had recognised net deferred tax assets (OTA) of Rs. 23,846 Lakhs as part of continuing business arising mainly on unabsorbed depreciation and brought forward business losses that was then expected to be utilised against long-term capital gain (LTCG) arising from sale of SBB business and against future taxable income of the continuing business. Pursuant to sale of SBB business during the current quarter, the Company has utilised such deferred tax assets to the extent of Rs. 15,838 lakhs against LTCG arising from sale of SBB business. Management believes that balance OTA will be recovered against future taxable income arising from the continuing business. The earnings per share of continuing operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 are hence not comparable with the earnings per share of the previous periods reported.
-
- Effective April 1; 2019, the Group has adopted Ind AS 116, 'Leases'. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all lease with a term of more than twelve months, unless the underlying asset is of a low value. The Group has used the 'modified retrospective approach' for transition from the previous standard Ind AS 17 and consequently, comparatives for previous periods have not been retrospectively adjusted. On transition, the Group has recorded the lease liability at the present value of future lease payments on date of transition discounted using the incremental borrowing rate and has also chosen the practical expedient provided in the standard to measure the right-of -use and corresponding lease liability as on date of transition.
The adoption of the new standard resulted in recognition of 'Right-of-use' asset and an equivalent lease liability as on April 1, 2019. The effect of adoption of Ind AS 116 on the profit before tax, profit for the period and earning per share is not material.
-
- Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 includes Rs. 1,049 lakhs towards profit on sale of fixed assets (Quarter ended March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 includes Rs. 139 lakhs and Rs 244 lakhs respectively as liabilities and provision no longer required written back).
-
- The figures for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 are the balancing figures between the audited figures for the full financial year and unaudited year to date figures up to the third quarter of the relevant financial year which was subjected to limited review.
-
- Previous period figures have been regrouped / rearranged wherever necessary, to conform to current period presentation.
