Notes to the Unaudited Standalone Financial Results:

    1. The above results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on February 9, 2021 and were subjected to limited review by the Statutory Auditors.
    1. Pursuant to provisions of Section 230-232 of the Companies Act 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company on November 12, 2019 had approved the scheme of amalgamation ofVarroc Lighting Systems (India) Private Limited ('VLSIPL') (wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) with Varroc Engineering Limited with appointed date of April 01 , 2020 ('the Scheme'). National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT') approved the above scheme Vide its order dated November 02, 2020 and the merger became effective on December 7, 2020 on filing of the NCLT order the Registrar of Companies. The merger has been accounted for as business combination of entities under common control as per Appendix C to Ind AS 103 - Business Combinations. Accordingly, all the comparative periods presented in the standalone results have been restated to include the effect of this merger.
    1. The automotive lighting plant of the Company (erstwhile Varroc Lighting Systems India Private Limited) at Pune, India was destroyed by fire on February 18, 2020. The insurance claim in this regard was settled in an earlier quarter and accordingly the other income for the nine months period ended December 31, 2020 includes an amount of Rs. 364.72 million being the excess of claim amount over net book value of assets destroyed.
    1. The Code on Social Security, 2020 ('Code') relating to employee benefits during employment and post-employment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the Gazette of India. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified and the final rules/interpretation have not yet been issued. The Company will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect and will record any related impact in the period the Code becomes effective.
    1. The Company has considered the possible effects of the COVID-19 pandemic including the impact on sales projections for future periods and consequent impacts on the recoverable values of assets including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, etc. In developing the assumptions relating to the possible future uncertainties in the economic conditions because of this pandemic and arriving at estimates, the Company, as at the date of approval of these financial results, has used internal and external sources of information. The Company has performed analysis on the assumptions used and based on current estimates, expects the carrying amounts of the assets to be recoverable as at December 31 , 2020. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company's financial results may differ from that estimated as at the date of approval of these standalone financial results.

Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Standalone Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended

Review Report to The Board of Directors Varroc Engineering Limited

  • I. We have reviewed the accompanying state111 ent of unaudited standalone financial results ofVarroc Engineering Li111ited (the ·'Company") for the quarter ended Dece111ber 3 1, 2020 and year to date fro111 April 0 I, 2020 to Dece111ber 31 , 2020 (the "State111cnt'') attached herewith, being submitted by the Co111pany pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Require111ents) Regulations, 2015 , as a111ended (the ·'Listing Regulations'').
    1. This State111ent, which is the responsibility of the Co111pany's Manage111ent and approved by the Co111 pany's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recogn ition and 111 easure111 ent principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) ·'lnteri111 Financial Repo1t ing'· prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 20 13 as amended, read with relevant rul es issued thereunder and other accounting principles genera lly accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the State111ent based on our rev iew.
    1. We conducted our rev iew of the State111 ent in accordance with the Standard on Rev iew Engagements (SR E) 24 10, ··Review of Interim Financial lnfor111 ation Perfor111ed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ind ia. This standard requires that we plan and perform the rev iew to obtain 111oderate assurance as to whether the State111ent is free of 111 aterial 111 isstatement. A rev iew of interim financial infor111ation consists of 111aking inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accou nting 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.
    1. Based on our rev iew conducted as above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recogn ition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesa id Ind ia n Accounting Standards (' Ind AS') specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as a111ended , read with relevant rules issued thereu nder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disc losed the information required to be disc losed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstate111 ent.

Notes:

  • The above results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on February 09, 2021 and were subjected to limited review by the Statutory Auditors.
  • 2 These unaudited consolidated financial results have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 3 of Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended and in terms of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulation, 2015 read with SEBI Circular No. CIR/CFD/CMDl/44/2019 dated March 29, 2019.
  • The Group received notice from a third party auto component supplier for certain alleged patent infringements in respect of s~me of the products supplied by an overseas subsidiary of the Group in the European region. The matter is under litigation and considering that the matter is technical and needs extensive evaluation, it is not possible to predict the potential outcome of this matter. Accordingly, no provision has been considered in respect of this matter in the results for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2020. The auditors in their review report have drawn Emphasis of Matter in relation to this matter.
  • 4 The Czech subsidiary of the company had, in earlier years, recognised certain tax credits as deferred tax assets under two different incentive schemes available to the company. The management has reassessed the recoverability of these tax assets as at Dec 31, 2020 based on revised business plans, taking into account the impact of Covid-19 on the business volumes and profitability of the Czech subsidiary in the current financial year as well as future years. Based on this assessment, management concluded that there is an uncertainty on the recoverability of the deferred tax assets recognised under the first scheme, which expire by March 2024. Accordingly, the company has considered it prudent to write off these tax assets amounting to Rs. 1,077.76 million under the above mentioned scheme during the current quarter, and the same has been disclosed separately as "Exceptional Item" in the results. The management is working on various opportunities to utilize this benefit and this write off does not impact the eligibility of the Czech subsidiary to claim the incentive benefit in the event there are sufficient taxable profits available in subsequent years before expiry of the benefits.

Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended

Review Report to The Board of Di rectors Varroc Engineering Limited

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of Varroc Engineering Limited (the ''Holding Company'') and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as ''the Group''), and its joint ventures for the quarter ended December 31 , 2020 and year to elate from April I, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the ''Listing Regulations'').
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Holding Company's Management and approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid clown in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) '"Interim Financial Reporting" prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard 011 Review Engagements (SRr·:) 2410, '"Review oflnterim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. 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 No. CI R/CFD/CMD 1/44/2019 dated March 29, 2019 issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.

  1. The Statement includes the results of the following entities:

  1. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above and based on the consideration of the review reports of other auditors referred to in paragraph 7 and 9 below, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disc losed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

Emphasis of matter

  1. We draw attention to Note 3 of the accompanying consolidated financial results in respect of litigation relating to alleged patent infringements. In management's view, the matter is technical and needs extensive evaluation and hence it is not possible to predict the potential outcome of this matter. Based on a legal opinion obtained, the Group believes that it has grounds to defend against the said allegation and accordingly no provision has been considered in respect of this matter in these results.

Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
