c. Provisions and contingencies
A provision is recognised where the Company has a present obligation (Legal and constructive) as a result of
a past event, for which it is probable that cash outflow wiLL be required and a reLiabLe estimate can be made of the amount of the obLigation. A Contingent LiabiLity is discLosed when the Company has a possibLe obLigation that 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 present obligation arising from past events where it is not probabLe that an outfLow of resources will be required to settle it or the amount of the obLigation cannot be measured with sufficient reLiabiLity. Provisions, contingent LiabiLities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
d. Income taxes
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and LiabiLities attributabLe to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company operate and generate taxabLe income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which appLicabLe tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. Deferred income tax is provided in fuLL, using the LiabiLity method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and LiabiLities and their carrying amounts in the standaLone financiaL statements. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and Laws) that have been enacted or substantiaLLy enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to appLy when the reLated deferred income tax asset is reaLised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax Losses onLy if it is probabLe that future taxabLe amounts wiLL be avaiLabLe to utiLise those temporary differences and Losses. Deferred tax assets and LiabiLities are offset when there is a LegaLLy enforceabLe right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances when they reLate to taxation Levied by the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax LiabiLities are offset where the entity has a LegaLLy enforceabLe right to offset and intends either to settLe on a net basis, or to reaLise the asset and settLe the LiabiLity simuLtaneousLy. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or Loss, except to the extent that it reLates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directLy in equity. In this case,
the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
e. Inventories
Inventories are measured at the Lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost basis and incLudes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present Location and condition. In the case of raw materiaLs, cost comprises of cost of purchase. In the case of finished goods and work in progress, cost incLudes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realisable vaLue is the estimated seLLing price in the ordinary course of business, Less estimated costs of compLetion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The net realisable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the seLLing prices of reLated finished goods. Raw materiaLs, components and other suppLies heLd for use in the production of finished products are not written down beLow cost except in cases when a decLine in the price of materiaLs indicates that the cost of the finished products shaLL exceed the net reaLisabLe vaLue.
Items of inventory are valued on the basis given below;
i. Raw Material, Bought out components, Stores and Spares: at cost or net realizable value, whichever is Lower. Cost is determined by the weighted average method.
ii. Work in progress and Finished goods: at cost or net realizable value, whichever is lower. Cost is determined on the basis of absorption costing.
iii. Scrap: at net reaLizabLe vaLue.
f. Property, plant and equipment
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment shaLL be recognised as an asset if, and onLy if 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. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction Less accumulated depreciation. All cost relating to the acquisition and instaLLation of Property, pLant and equipment are capitaLised and incLude financing cost relating to borrowed funds attributable to construction or acquisition of fixed assets, upto the date the asset is ready for intended use. Subsequent expenditure is capitaLised onLy if it is probabLe that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Any gain or Loss on disposaL of an item of property, pLant and equipment is recognised in profit or Loss.
Depreciation is provided on the Straight Line Method (SLM) over the estimated useful lives of the assets considering the nature, estimated usage, operating conditions, past history of repLacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers' warranties and maintenance support. Taking into account these factors, the Company have decided to retain the usefuL Life hitherto adopted for various categories of fixed assets, which are different from those prescribed in ScheduLe II of the Act as under:
Depreciation on capitaL work-in-progress is recorded upon compLetion of construction and instaLLation of the asset and once the asset is ready for its intended use. CapitaL advances given is recognized as capitaL work- in-progress to the extent the work is compLeted and biLLed. The residuaL vaLue and the usefuL Life of an asset is reviewed at the end of each financiaL year and upon change in estimates, the change(s) are accounted for as, a change in an accounting estimate in accordance with Ind AS 8, 'Accounting Policies, Accounting Estimates and Errors'. The carrying vaLue recorded in the baLance sheet as at year end accounts for impairment Losses, if any basis 'accounting estimates and errors'.
g. Other intangible assets
The cost of an item of intangible assets shall be recognised as an asset if, and onLy if 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. Other intangibLe assets in the nature of computer software are stated at cost Less accumuLated amortisation. Computer software are amortised over 4 years being their estimated useful Life on straight Line methods. ALL cost reLating to the acquisition and instaLLation of assets are capitaLised and incLude financing cost reLating to borrowed funds attributabLe to construction or acquisition of assets, upto the date the asset is ready for intended use. Subsequent
expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item is recognised in profit or loss. carrying value recorded in the balance sheet as at year end accounts for impairment losses, if any basis 'accounting estimates and errors'.
h. Impairment of non-financial assets
For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. The recoverable amount of an individual asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash flows, 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 or CGU. Non-financial assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs. In respect of assets for which impairment loss has been recognised in prior periods, the Company reviews at each reporting date whether there is any indication that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Such a reversal is made only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
i. Financial instruments
(i) Recognition: A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial instruments are recognised on the balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Initial measurement: - Financial instruments are
initially recognised at its fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial instruments are recognised in determining the carrying amount, if it is not classified as at fair value through profit or loss. However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price. Transaction costs of financial instruments carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the statement of profit and loss. Subsequently, financial instruments are measured according to the category in which they are classified.
Classification and measurement - financial assets Classification of financial assets is based on the business model in which the instruments are held as well as the characteristics of their contractual cash flows. The business model is based on management's intentions and past pattern of transactions. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest. The Company reclassifies financial assets when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.
Financial assets are classified into three categories Financial assets at amortised cost: Financial assets having contractual terms that give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding and that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold such assets in order to collect such contractual cash flows are classified in this category. Subsequently, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any impairment losses.
Equity investments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity instruments): These include financial assets that are equity instruments and are designated as such upon initial recognition irrevocably. Subsequently, these are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognised directly in other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Dividends from these equity investments are recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss when the right to receive payment has been established. When the equity investment is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to retained earnings.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt instruments): Financial assets having contractual terms that give rise on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding and that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold
such assets in order to collect such contractual cash flows as wett as to sett the financial asset, are classified in this category. Subsequently, these are measured at fair value, with unrealised gains or losses being recognised in other comprehensive income apart from any expected credit tosses or foreign exchange gains or tosses, which are recognised in profit or toss.
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss:
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit and toss untess it is measured at amortised cost or at fair vatue through other comprehensive income on initiat recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are immediately recognised in profit and toss.
Classification and measurement - financial liabilities:
Financiat tiabitities are ctassified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and tosses, inctuding any interest expense, are recognised in profit or loss. Other financial liabilities are subsequentty measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and tosses are recognised in profit or toss. Any gain or toss on derecognition is atso recognised in profit or toss. Financiat guarantee contracts: These are initiatty measured at their fair vatues and, are subsequentty measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined or the amount initiatty recognised less, the cumulative amount of income recognised. Other financiat tiabitities: These are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Equity instruments: An equity instrument is any contract that evidences residuat interests in the assets of the Company after deducting att of its tiabitities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
(ii) Determination of fair value: Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardtess of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. The fair value of a financiat instrument on initiat recognition is normatty the transaction price (fair value of the consideration given or received). In estimating the fair value of an asset or liability,
the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company determines the fair vatue of financiat instruments that are quoted in active markets using the quoted bid prices (financiat assets hetd) or quoted ask prices (financiat liabilities held) and using valuation techniques for other instruments. Valuation techniques include discounted cash ftow method and other vatuation methods.
(iii) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities: The Company derecognises a financiat asset onty when the contractuat rights to the cash ftows from the asset expires or it transfers the financiat asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantiatty att the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to controt the transferred asset, the Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated tiabitity for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantiatty att the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financiat asset, the Company continues to recognise the financiat asset and atso recognises a cottateratised borrowing for the proceeds received. Any gain or toss arising on derecognition is recognised in profit or loss. When a financial instrument is derecognised, the cumulative gain or toss in equity is transferred to the statement of profit and loss unless it was an equity instrument electively held at fair value through other comprehensive income. In this case, any cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to retained earnings. Financiat assets are written off when there is no reasonabte expectation of recovery. The Company reviews the facts and circumstances around each asset before making a determination. Financiat assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities. Financial liabilities are derecognised when these are extinguished, that is when the obtigation is discharged, cancetted or has expired
(iv) Impairment of financial assets: The Company recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on a financial asset that is at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. Expected credit losses are forward tooking and are measured in a way that is unbiased and represents a probability-weighted amount, takes into account the time vatue of money (vatues are discounted using the appticabte effective interest rate) and uses reasonable and supportable information.
j. Employee benefits
Short term employee benefits
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.
Long term employee benefits:
i. Defined benefits plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Company's net obligation in respect of defined benefit pLans is caLcuLated separateLy for each pLan by estimating the amount of future benefit that empLoyees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair vaLue of any pLan assets. The caLcuLation of defined benefit obLigations is performed annuaLLy by a quaLified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the caLcuLation resuLts in a potentiaL asset for the Company, the recognised asset is Limited to the present vaLue of economic benefits avaiLabLe in the form of any future refunds from the pLan or reductions in future contributions to the plan ('the asset ceiling'). To calculate the present vaLue of economic benefits, consideration is given to any applicable minimum funding requirements. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit Liability, which comprise actuarial gains and Losses, the return on pLan assets (excLuding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiLing (if any, excLuding interest), are recognised immediately in OCI. The Company determines the net interest expense (income) on the net defined benefit LiabiLity (asset) for the period by appLying the discount rate determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. This rate is applied on the net defined benefit LiabiLity (asset), both as determined at the start of the annuaL reporting period, taking into account any changes in the net defined benefit Liability (asset) during the period as a resuLt of contributions and benefit payments. Net interest expense and other expenses reLated to defined benefit pLans are recognised in profit or Loss. When the benefits of a pLan are changed or when a pLan is curtaiLed, the resuLting change in benefit that reLates to past service ('past service cost' or 'past service gain') or the gain or Loss on curtaiLment is recognised immediateLy in profit or Loss. The Company recognises gains and Losses on the settLement of a defined benefit pLan
when the settLement occurs.
ii. Defined contribution plan
A defined contribution pLan is a post-empLoyment benefit pLan where the Company's LegaL or constructive obLigation is Limited to the amount that it contributes to a separate LegaL entity. The Company makes specified monthLy contributions towards Government administered provident fund scheme. ObLigations for contributions to defined contribution pLan are expensed as an empLoyee benefits expense in the statement of profit and Loss in period in which the reLated service is provided by the empLoyee. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is avaiLabLe
iii. Other long - term employee benefits - Compensated absences
AccumuLated absences expected to be carried forward beyond tweLve months is treated as Long¬ term empLoyee benefit for measurement purposes. The Company's net obLigation in respect of other Long-term empLoyee benefit of accumuLating compensated absences is the amount of future benefit that empLoyees have accumuLated at the end of the year. That benefit is discounted to determine its present vaLue The obLigation is measured annuaLLy by a quaLified actuary using the projected unit credit method. Remeasurements are recognised in profit or Loss in the period in which they arise.
The obligations are presented as current LiabiLities in the baLance sheet if the Company does not have an unconditionaL right to defer the settLement for at Least tweLve months after the reporting date. The Company has the poLicy of Leave encashment.
iv. Termination benefits
Termination benefits are expensed at the earLier of when the Company can no Longer withdraw the offer of those benefits and when the Company recognises costs for a restructuring. If benefits are not expected to be settLed whoLLy within 12 months of the reporting date, then they are discounted.
k. Leases
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contain a Lease. A contract is, or contains, a Lease if the contract conveys the right to controL the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to controL the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:
- The contract involves the use of an identified asset - this may be specified explicitly or implicitly, and should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capacity of a physically distinct asset. If the supplier has a substantive substation right, then the asset is not identified;
- The Company has the right to substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period of use; and
- The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company has this right when it has the decision making rights that are most relevant to changing how and for what purposes the asset is used. In rare cases where the decision about how and for what purpose the asset is used is predetermined, the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset if either:
- The Company has the right to operate the asset; or
- The Company designed the asset in a way that
predetermines how and for what purposes it will be used. As a practical expedient, Ind AS 116 permits a lessee not to separate non-lease components, and instead account for any lease and associated non lease components as a single arrangement. The Company has not used this practical expedient. At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises of the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and estimated dilapidation costs, less any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently amortised using the straight-line method over the shorter of the useful life of the leased asset or the period of lease. If ownership of the leased asset is automatically transferred at the end of the lease term or the exercise of a purchase option is reflected in the lease payments, the right- of-use asset is amortised on a straightline basis over the expected useful life of the leased asset. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at commencement date, discounted using, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is re-measured when there is a change in future lease payments. Lease payments include fixed payments, i.e. amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantee, the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and
payment of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease term considered reflects that the Company shall exercise termination option. The Company also recognises a right of use asset which comprises of amount of initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct cost incurred by the Company and estimated dilapidation costs. Payment made towards short term leases (leases for which non-cancellable term is 12 months or lesser).
Short term leases: The Company has elected not to recognise right of use assets and lease liabilities for short term leases. The Company recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense in the profit or loss on straight line basis over the lease term
Lessor: At the inception of a lease, the lease arrangement is classified as either a finance lease or an operating lease, based on contractual terms and substance of the lease arrangement. Whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, the contract is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recognised as receivables at the amount of the Company's net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Company's net investment outstanding in respect of the leases. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
l. Segmental reporting Basis for segmentation
An operating segment is a component of the company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relates to transactions with any of the Company's other components and for which discrete financial information is available. All operating segments' operating results are reviewed regularly by the company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance.
Reportable segments
The Company operates in the following two reportable segments:
♦ Bus body building division
♦ Pressing division
m. Investment property
i. Recognition and measurement
Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sate in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Upon initial recognition, an investment property is measured at cost, including related transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is measured at cost tess accumutated depreciation and accumutated impairment tosses, if any. Investment property is derecognised either when it has been disposed of or when it is permanentty withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposat. Any gain or toss on disposat of investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposat and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in profit or loss.
ii. Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured retiabty.
iii. Depreciation
Based on technical evaluation and consequent advice, the management believes a period of 35 years as representing the best estimate of the period over which investment property (which is quite simitar) is expected to be used. Accordingly, the Company depreciates investment property over a period of 35 years on a straight-line basis. The useful life estimate of 35 years is different from the indicative usefut tife of relevant type of buildings mentioned in Part C of Schedule II to the Act i.e. 30 years.
iv. Reclassification from / to investment property
Transfers to (or from) investment property are made onty when there is a change in use. Transfers between investment property, owner-occupied property and inventories do not change the carrying amount of the property transferred and they do not change the cost of that property for measurement or disctosure purposes.
v. Fair value disclosure
The fair vatues of investment property is disctosed in the notes. Fair vatues is determined by an independent vatuer who hotds a recognised and relevant professional qualification and has recent experience in the tocation and category of the investment property being vatued.
n. Exceptional items
Items of income or expense which are non-recurring
or outside the ordinary course of business for which
the company have not budgeted for and are of such size, nature or incidence that their separate disctosure is considered necessary to explain the performance of the Company are disctosed as exceptionat items in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
o. Cash Flow Statement
Cash ftow from operation are reported using the indirect methods where by profits before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non cash nature, any deferrals or accruats of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
p. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit (or toss) attributabte 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 etement in a rights issue to existing shareholders, share split and reverse share sptit
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.
q. Contingent assets
Contingent asset is not recognised in financial statements since this may resutt in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtuatty certain, then the retated asset is not a contingent asset and is recognized.
r. Recent 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. For the year ended 31 March 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS - 117 Insurance Contracts
and amendments to Ind AS 116 - Leases, relating to sale and teaseback transactions, appticabte to the Company w.e.f April 1, 2024. The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evatuation has determined that it does not have any significant impact in its financiat statements.
(iii) Performance obligations
The Company satisfies its performance obligations pertaining to the sate of bus bodies and pressing segment items at point in time when the control of goods is actually transferred to the customers. No significant judgment is involved in evaluating when a customer obtains control of promised goods. The contract is a fixed price contract and does not contain any financing component. The amount receivable is generally due within 30 days. The Company have opted for invoice discounting facility with HDFC Bank Limited from 5 July 2024 onwards. The facility is unsecured and discounting rate is 1.12% which is paid by the Company to TML (31 March 2024 - 1.08% with Tata Capital Financials Services Ltd.). There are no other significant obligations attached in the contract with customer.
(iv) Transaction price
There is no remaining performance obligation for any contract for which revenue has been recognised till year end.
(v) Determining the timing of satisfaction of performance obligations
There are no significant judgments involved in ascertaining the timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, in evaluating when a customer obtains control of promised goods, transaction price and allocation of it to the performance obligations.
(vi) Determining the transaction price and the amounts allocated to performance obligations
The transaction price ascertained for the only performance obligation of the Company (i.e. Sale of goods) is agreed in the contract with the customer. There is no variable consideration involved in the transaction price.
(vii) Cost to obtain contract or fulfill a contract
There is no cost incurred for obtaining or fulfilling contract with customers.
39) Segment information
(a) The Company has identified business segments as reportable segments.
The Company has two reportable segments:-
i) Pressing division - Manufacturing of pressed parts, components, sub-assemblies and assemblies for various range of automobiles.
ii) Bus body building division - Manufacturing of bus bodies and component parts for bus bodies.
(b) Inter-segment
Inter-segment transfers are made at transfer price.
(c) Common Expenses
Common Expenses are allocated to different segments on reasonable basis as considered appropriate.
Level 2: Level 2 hierarchy includes fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market. Fair value of these financial instruments is determined using valuation, which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. Investments in mutual funds are valued using the closing net assets value (NAV).
Level 3: level 3 hierarchy includes financial instruments that are not based on the observable market data.
All financial instruments are classified as level 3. iii. Risk management framework
The risk management process is coordinated by the management assurance functions and is regularly reviewed by the Company's audit committee. The audit committee meets regularly to review risks as well as the progress against the planned actions. Key business decisions are also discussed at the periodic meetings of the audit committee and the board of directors. The overall internal control environment and risk management programme including financial risk management is reviewed by the audit committee and the board.
The risk management framework aims to:
- improve financial risk awareness and risk transparency.
- identify, control and monitor key risks.
- identify risk accumulations.
- provide management with reliable information on the Company's risk situation.
- improve financial returns.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
(i) Market risk
The Company's activities does not expose it to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
(ii) Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral, where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults.
(iii) Liquidity risk management
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, the Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
Liquidity risk tables
The following table details the Company's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.
IV. Capital management
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital (total equity) includes issued equity capital, securities premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise the shareholder value. Management monitors the return on capital, as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by adjusted equity. Net debt is calculated as total liabilities (as shown in the balance sheet) less cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances. Adjusted equity comprises all components of equity other than amounts accumulated in the hedging and cost of hedging, if any.
42) The Company does not have any Long - term contract including derivative contract for which provision would be required for materiat foreseeable losses.
43) The company do not have any Benami property, where any proceeding has been initiated or pending against the Company for holding any Benami property
