crore and Profit before Exceptional Items and Tax was Rs. 392.74 crore as against Rs. 305.90 crore for the previous year,

6
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

The Company operates in four major clusters – consumer, institutional, industrial products and projects. While the Company has a
loyal consumer franchise, GST-related disruptions impacted its performance in the first half of the year. Private investment in
capex and the growth rate of office space absorption were muted, negatively impacting the revenue of the institutional and
projects clusters. The banking sector continues to be plagued with structural issues affecting security products. Internationally, the
oil and gas sectors are seeing a revival which will help demand for process equipment. Efforts to build capacity and capability in
the strategic sectors of space and defence continues, auguring well for the rest of the industrial products group.

The Management expects supportive macroeconomic indicators to prevail. GDP growth will be healthy, GST-related disruptions
will stabilize, interest rates should remain steady and there could be minor increases in inflation which will help in the growth of
consumer demand. Also, given the fact that in the consumer-facing categories there is substantial headroom for growth, the
Company’s B2C businesses should continue to do well on the revenue front. However, commodity prices and currency rates will
continue to harden impacting the Company’s ability to grow profits. The muted growth of private office space absorption will be
partially offset by increased governmental spending on the development and improvement of offices and infrastructure, aiding the
performance of our institutional and projects businesses.

4. SHARE CAPITAL
The National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench has by its Order dated 23rd August, 2017, approved the Scheme of
Amalgamation of Godrej Investments Pvt. Ltd. (GIPL) with the Company. with Accordingly, 1,77,429 Equity Shares of Rs. 100 each
of the Company were issued to the shareholders of GIPL on 6th November, 2017, in lieu of 1,77,432 shares of Rs.100 held by GIPL.
Consequently, the Issued, Subscribed and Paid Up Share Capital of the Company changed from 6,78,448 Equity Shares of Rs. 100
each to 6,78,445 Equity Shares of Rs. 100 each.

5. DEPOSITORY SYSTEM
The Company’s Equity Shares are available for dematerialisation through National Securities Depository Limited and Central
Depository Services (India) Limited. As on 31st March, 2018, 76.56% of the Equity Shares of the Company were held in
dematerialised Form.

processes, people, technology and knowledge. The current ERM framework is in line with the global Risk Management standards.
It is aimed at creating a culture of risk informed business decision making, and strengthening risk resiliency with the intent of
preserving as well as enhancing shareholders’ value. The framework for ERM and the Risk management policy has been reviewed
by the Audit Committee and has been approved by the Board.
The concept of Risk Enabled Performance Management(REPM) which integrates the ERM framework with strategy and planning
process is embedded in organization and the businesses use these emerging risks as input. The Risk Management concepts are
also applied in “project” businesses, in contract management, cost estimation and project selection for better project execution
and profitability.
The Company has created risk infrastructure by setting up an ERM Executive Committee headed by the President of the Company.
The committee periodically reviews the Risk Management framework and ensures the same is working effectively. It also reviews
the risks and mitigation plans drawn by various businesses and functional risk teams to avoid unforeseen aberrations. The
individual Businesses/Functions are responsible for risk identification and mitigation plan, who as risk owners review and monitor
the key risks to avoid undue deviations and adverse events and thus create value for the business. For each of the risk identified,
corresponding controls are assessed and policies and procedures are put in place for monitoring, mitigating and reporting the risks
on a periodic basis.
The entity level risks are identified using 3-way approach, i.e.
1. Bottom Up-Looking at risks of all the businesses and then sum them up to identify most critical risk.
2. Top Down-These risks are identified from the Entity Level Long-term Planning.
3. Identifying risks that cannot be taken care at the business level and which require mitigation centrally.

The ERM Executive Committee also helps to prioritize these entity-wide risks identified and steer mitigation efforts in line with the
Company’s risk capacity and appetite which in turn are reported to the Audit Committee and the Board. The entire process is
independently reviewed by Internal Audit Department to ensure that the risk management framework is operating effectively.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the standalone Ind AS
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material
misstatement of the standalone Ind AS financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the
auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the standalone Ind AS financial statements that
give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the
Company’s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the standalone Ind AS financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
standalone Ind AS financial statements.

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone Ind AS
financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity
with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,
2018, and its profit, total comprehensive income, the changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

ANNEXURE “A” TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

(Referred to in paragraph 1(f) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’ section of our report of even date)

Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Company Limited (“the
Company”) as of March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone Ind AS 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 control
over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the
Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India”. 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

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the
“Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section
143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. 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 over financial reporting 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 over
financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included
obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists,
and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures
selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion
on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A company's internal financial control over financial reporting 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 control over financial reporting 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.

31
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, 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 over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that
the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

According to the information and explanations given to us and based on our audit, during the year, the Company had progressively
commenced a comprehensive migration of their record keeping and accounting system by implementing a new information
technology system. The Management recognising that that there is long period of time required for stabilisation of the information
technology system, put in place, for the year ended March 31, 2018, additional manual controls including those as part of its financial
reporting and close process. The Management have identified that they did not have adequate manual monitoring controls over the
overhead absorption on inventory (not fully stabilised in the Information Technology environment as at the year-end) leading to a
material weakness in the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting as at March 31, 2018 which could potentially
result in the Company mis-stating its inventory balances with a corresponding effect on changes in inventories of Finished Goods,
Work-in-process and Stock-in-trade in its standalone Ind AS financial statements.

A ‘material weakness’ is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal financial control over financial reporting, such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis.

Qualified Opinion
In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the
material weakness described in ‘Basis for Qualified Opinion’ paragraph above on the achievements of the objectives of the control
criteria, the Company has maintained, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting
and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as of March 31, 2018, based on the criteria for
internal financial control over financial reporting 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 issued by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of India.

We have considered the material weakness identified and reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests
applied in our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2018, and this
material weakness does not affect our opinion on the said standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company.

NOTES FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. General Information
Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Company Limited ('the Company') incorporated on 3rd March, 1932 is a major company of the
Godrej Group. The Company has diverse business divisions offering a wide range of consumer, office, and industrial products and
related services of the highest quality to customers in India and abroad. The Company is domiciled in India and its registered office
is at, Pirojshanagar, Vikhroli, Mumbai 400 079.

B. Basis of preparation of financial statements

These financial statements as at, and for the year ended, 31st March, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with Indian
Accounting standards (“Ind AS”) prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended).
The financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on accrual and going concern
basis except for certain financial assets and financial liablities that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period,
as explained in the accounting policies below.
The financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31st March, 2018 were approved for issue in accordance with the
Resolution passed by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on 4th September, 2018.
The amounts as at and for the year ended 31st March, 2017 were audited by the predecessor auditor.

C. Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, which is the Company’s functional currency. All amounts have been
rounded to the nearest crore, unless otherwise indicated; a crore is equal to ten million. Where changes in presentation are made,
comparitive figures for the previous year are restated/regrouped accordingly.

D. Uses of Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Ind AS requires use of estimates and assumptions for some items, which
might have an effect on their recognition and measurement in the Balance Sheet and Statement of Profit and Loss. The actual
amounts realised may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and assumptions are required in particular for:
(i) Determination of the estimated useful lives of tangible assets and the assessment as to which components of the cost may
be capitalised
Useful lives of tangible assets are based on the life prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. In cases, where the
useful lives are different from those prescribed in Schedule II, they are based on technical advice, taking into account the
nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement,
anticipated technological changes, manufacturers’ warranties and maintenance support. Assumptions also need to be made,
when the Company assesses, whether an asset may be capitalised and which components of the cost of the asset may be
capitalised.
(ii) Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations
The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key actuarial
assumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation, vested future benefits and life expectancy. The discount rate is
determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. The period to maturity of
the underlying bonds correspond to the probable maturity of the post-employment benefit obligations. The same is disclosed
in Note 42.

41
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

(iii) Income Taxes

The Company's tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of
paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for
uncertain tax positions.
A deferred tax asset is recognised for all the deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. The management assumes that
taxable profits will be available while recognising deferred tax assets.
(iv) Recognition and measurement of provisions
The recognition and measurement of provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an outflow of resources,
and on past experience and circumstances known at the Balance Sheet date. The actual outflow of resources at a future date
may therefore vary from the figure included in other provisions.
(v) Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease
At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease. At inception or
on reassessment of an arrangement that contains a lease, the Company separates payments and other consideration required
by the arrangement into those for the lease and those for other elements on the basis of their relative fair values. If the
Company concludes for a finance lease that it is impracticable to separate the payments reliably, then an asset and a liability
are recognised at an amount equal to the fair value of the underlying asset; subsequently, the liability is reduced as payments
are made and an imputed finance cost on the liability is recognised using the Company ’s incremental borrowing rate and in
case of operating lease, all payments under the arrangement are treated as lease payments.
(vi) Rebates and sales incentives
Rebates are generally provided to distributors or customers as an incentive to sell the Company’s products. Rebates are based
on purchases made during the period by distributor / customer. The Company determines the estimates of rebate accruals
primarily based on the contracts entered into with their distributors / customers and the information received for sales made
by them.
(vii) Fair value of financial instruments
Derivatives are carried at fair value. Derivatives includes Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Interest Rate Swaps. Fair
value of Foreign Currency Forward Contracts are determined using the fair value reports provided by the respective merchant
bankers. Fair value of Interest Rate Swaps are determined with respect to current market rate of interest.
(viii) Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments in subsidiaries and associates on an annual basis or more frequently
when there is an indication of other than temporary impairment in the carrying value of its investments. The recoverable
amount is measured using future cash flows projections provided by the management. A significant degree of judgment is
required in establishing these recoverable values. Judgments include considerations such as change in business strategy,
liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility which provide objective evidence of an impairment which is other than temporary in the
long term inherent value of the investment.
(ix) Product Warranty Obligations
The estimates for product warranty obligations are established using historical information on the nature, frequency and
average cost of warranty claims and management estimates regarding possible future incidences.

E. Standards issued but not effective

In March 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules,
2018, notifying Ind AS 115, 'Revenue from Contract with Customers, Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign Currency transactions
and advance consideration and amendments to certain other standards. These amendments are in line with recent
amendments made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These amendments are applicable to the Company
from 1st April, 2018. The Company will be adopting the amendments from their effective date.
a) Ind AS 115, Revenue from Contract with Customers:
Ind AS 115 supersedes Ind AS 11, Construction Contracts and Ind AS 18, Revenue. Ind AS 115 requires an entity to report
information regarding nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with
customers. The principle of Ind AS 115 is that an entity should recognise revenue that demonstrates the transfer of promised
goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in
exchange for those goods or services. The standard can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period
presented or can be applied retrospectively with recognition of cumulative effect of contracts that are not completed
contracts at the date of initial application of the standard.
The Company is in the process of making an assessment of the impact of Ind AS 115 upon initial application.

42
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

b) Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration:

The Appendix clarifies that the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial
recognition of the asset, expense or income (or part of it) is the date on which an entity initially recognises the non-monetary
asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration towards such assets, expenses or
income. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, then an entity must determine transaction date for each
payment or receipts of advance consideration.
The impact of the Appendix on the financial statements, as assessed by the Company, is expected to be not material.

F. Measurement of fair values

The Company ’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values for financial instruments.
The Company has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The management
regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes
or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the management assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties
to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of Ind AS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy
in which such valuations should be classified.
When measuring the fair value of a financial asset or a financial liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as
possible. 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 : inputs are 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). Fair values are
determined in whole or part using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from
observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
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.
The Company recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which
the change has occurred.

G. Significant accounting policies

i. Property, plant and equipment
a. Recognition and measurement
Property, plant and equipment is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefit associated with the asset
will flow to the Company, and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at original cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated
impairment losses.
The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises:
a) its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and
rebates.
b) any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of
operating in the manner intended by management.
Income and expenses related to the incidental operations, not necessary to bring the item to the location and condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, are recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as
separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment, and depreciated over their respective useful lives.
Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss.
All property, plant and equipment received in exchange for non-monetary assets are measured at fair value unless the
exchange transaction lacks commercial substance or the fair value of neither the asset received nor the asset given up is
reliably measurable. Measurement of an exchange at fair value will result in the recognition of a gain or loss based on the
carrying amount of the asset surrendered. If a fair value can be determined reliably for either the asset received or the

43
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

asset given up, then the fair value of the asset given up should be used unless the fair value of the asset received is more
clearly evident. Accordingly, Transferable Development Rights (TDR’s) obtained by the Company in respect of its freehold
lands situated at Mumbai, are carried at fair value of land given up unless the fair value of TDR received is more clearly
evident, and are shown under Freehold Land. Any gain or loss arising from such exchange is immediately recognised in
profit or loss.
Any transfer of such TDR’s / land from fixed asset to inventory is done at cost.
b. 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.
c. Depreciation / Amortisation
The Company has followed the Straight Line method for charging depreciation on all items of property, plant and
equipment, at the rates specified in Schedule II to the Act; these rates are considered as the minimum rates. If
management's estimate of the useful life of the property, plant and equipment is shorter than that envisaged in Schedule
II, depreciation is provided at a higher rate based on management’s estimate of the useful life. Accordingly, in respect of
the commercial construction projects, on some items of equipment at the project sites, depreciation is provided at a
higher rate based on useful life of the assets estimated at 5 years, compared to 15 years specified in Schedule II.
Moreover, in respect of special-purpose machinery used in the contract-manufacturing of precision components and
systems, depreciation is charged over the period of such manufacturing contracts. In respect of additions to/deductions
from the assets, the depreciation on such assets is calculated on a pro rata basis from/upto the month of such
addition/deduction. Assets costing less than Rs. 5,000 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase/acquisition. Leasehold
Land and Buildings are amortised over the period of the lease. The cost of property, plant and equipment not ready for
their intended use at the balance sheet date is disclosed under capital work-in-progress.
Intangible assets comprising of Technical Know-how and Trade Marks are amortised on straight-line basis at the rate of
16.67%; capitalised Computer Software costs relating to the ERP system, are amortised on straight line basis at the rate of
20%.
ii. Investment properties
a. Properties held to earn rentals and / or capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes) are
classified as investment properties.
b. Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition,
investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any.
c. The cost includes the cost of replacing parts and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition
criteria are met. When significant parts of the investment property are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company
depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in
profit or loss as incurred.
d. The Company follows the straight line method for charging depreciation on investment property over estimated useful lives
prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
e. Though the Company measures investment property using cost based measurement, the fair value of investment property
is disclosed in the notes.
f. Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn
from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds
and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.
iii. Intangible assets
a. Recognition and measurement
Intangible assets, including patents and trademarks, which are acquired by the Company and have finite useful lives are
measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
b. Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to
which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in
profit or loss as incurred.
c. Amortisation
Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated useful life on straight line method.

44
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

iv. Investment in Subsidiaries, Joint Ventures and Associates

Non-current investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are stated at cost (unless otherwise stated); however,
for any diminution other than temporary in the value of investments, the book value is reduced to recognise the decline. In
cases where these investments are carried at their book values, which are higher than their fair values, the diminution in the
value of such investments is considered to be of a temporary nature, in view of the Company's long-term financial
involvement in such investee companies.
v. Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.
A. Financial Assets
(a) Initial recognition and measurements:
The Company recognises a financial asset in its balance sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value, plus in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair
value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

Where the fair value of the financial asset at initial recognition is different from its transaction price, the difference
between the fair value and the transaction price is recognised as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss at initial
recognition if the fair value is determined through a quoted market price in an active market for an identical asset (i.e.
level 1 input) or through a valuation technique that uses data from observable markets (i.e. level 2 input).

In case the fair value is not determined using a level 1 or level 2 input as mentioned above, the difference between the fair
value and transaction price is deferred appropriately and recognised as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss
only to the extent that such gain or loss arises due to change in factor that market participants take into account when
pricing the financial asset.
However, trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price.
(b) Subsequent measurement:
For subsequent measurement, the Company classifies a financial asset in accordance with the below criteria;
(i) The Company’s business model for managing the financial asset and
(ii) The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Based on the above criteria, the Company classifies its financial assets into the following categories:
(i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost
(ii) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
(iii) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
(i) Financial assets measured at amortised cost:
A financial asset is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The Company’s business model objective for managing the financial asset is to hold financial assets in order to collect
contractual cash flows, and
b) 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 principle amount outstanding.
This category applies to cash and bank balances, trade receivables, loans and other financial assets of the Company (Refer
Note 43 for further details). Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.
Under the effective interest rate method, the future cash receipts are exactly discounted to the initial recognition value
using the effective interest rate. The cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of the difference
between the initial recognition amount and the maturity amount is added to the initial recognition value (net of
principal/repayments, if any) of the financial asset over the relevant period of the financial asset to arrive at the amortised
cost at each reporting date. The corresponding effect of the amortisation under effective interest method is recognised as
interest income over the relevant period of the financial asset. The same is included under other income in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.
The amortised cost of financial asset is also adjusted for loss of allowance, if any.
(ii) Financial asset measured at FVTOCI:
A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI if both of the following conditions are met:

45
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

a) The Company’s business model objective for managing the financial asset is achieved both by collecting contractual cash
flows and selling the financial asset, and
b) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
This category applies to certain investments in debt instruments (Refer Note 3 for further details). Such financial assets
are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value changes are recognised in the other
Comprehensive Income (OCI). However, the Company recognises interest income and impairment losses and its reversals
in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
On Derecognition of such financial assets, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to
the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Further, the Company, through an irrevocable election at initial recognition, has measured certain investments in equity
instruments at FVTOCI (Refer Note 43 for further details). The Company has made such election on an instrument by
instrument basis. These equity instruments are neither held for trading nor are contingent consideration recognised
under a business combination. Pursuant to such irrevocable election, subsequent changes in the fair value of such equity
instruments are recognised in OCI. However, the Company recognises dividend income from such instruments in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
On derecognition of such financial assets, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is not reclassified from the
equity to the Statement of Profit and Loss. However, the Company may transfer such cumulative gain or loss into retained
earnings within equity.
(iii) Financial asset measured at FVTPL:
A financial asset is measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortised cost or at FVTOCI as explained above. This is a
residual category applied to all other investments of the Company excluding investments in subsidiary and associate
companies (Refer Note 43 for further details). Such financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value at each
reporting date. Fair value changes are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(c ) Derecognition:
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is
derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when any of the following occurs:
(i) The contractual rights to cash flows from the financial asset expires;
(ii) The Company transfers its contractual rights to receive cash flows of the financial asset and has substantially
transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.
(iii) The Company retains the contractual rights to receive cash flows but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash
flows without material delay to one or more recipients under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement (thereby substantially
transferring all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset);
(iv) The Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all risk and rewards of ownerships and does not retain control
over the financial assets.
In cases where Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the financial
asset, but retains control of the financial asset, the Company continues to recognise such financial asset to the extent of its
continuing involvement in the financial asset. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The
financial asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the
Company has retained.
On Derecognition of a financial asset, (except as mentioned in (ii) above for financial assets measured at FVTOCI), the
difference between the carrying amount and the consideration received is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(d) Impairment of financial assets:
The Company applies expected credit losses (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of loss allowance on the following:

i. Trade receivables and lease receivables.

ii. Financial assets measured at amortised cost (other than trade receivables and lease receivables)
iii. Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
In case of trade receivables and lease receivables, the Company follows a simplified approach wherein an amount equal to
lifetime ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance.

46
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

In case of other assets (listed as (ii) and (iii) above), the Company determines if there has been a significant increase in credit
risk of the financial assets since initial recognition, if the credit risk of such assets has not increased significantly, an amount
equal to 12-month ECL is measured and recognised as loss allowance. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, an
amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured as recognised as loss allowance.
Subsequently, if the credit quality of the financial asset improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit
risk since initial recognition, the Company reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all
the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial asset,
12month ECL, are a portion of the lifetime ECL which result from default events that are possible within 12 months from the
reporting date.
ECL are measured in a manner that they reflect unbiased and probability weighted amounts determined by a range of
outcome, taking into account the time value of money and other reasonable information available as a result of past events,
current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to measure lifetime ECL on its portfolio of trade receivables.
The provision matrix is prepared based on historically observed default rates over the expected life of trade receivables and is
adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At each reporting date, the historically observed default rates and changes in the
forward-looking estimates are updated.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognised during the period is recognised as income/expense in the Statement of
Profit and Loss under the head 'Other expenses’.
B. Financial Liabilities
(a) Initial recognition and measurement:
The Company recognises a financial liability in its Balance Sheet when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value minus, in the case of financial liabilities not
recorded at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the
financial liability.
Where the fair value of a financial liability at initial recognition is different from its transaction price, the difference
between the fair value and the transaction price is recognised as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss at initial
recognition if the fair value is determined through a quoted market price in an active market for an identical asset (i.e.
level 1 input) or through valuation technique that uses data from observable markets (i.e. level 2 input).
In case the fair value is not determined using a level 1 or level 2 input as mentioned above, the difference between the fair
value and transaction price is deferred appropriately and recognised as a gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss
only to the extent that such gain or loss arises due to a change in factor that market participants take into account when
pricing the financial liability.
(b) Subsequent measurement:
All financial liabilities of the Company are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method
(Refer Note 43 for further details).
Under the effective interest method, the future cash payments are exactly discounted to the initial recognition value using
the effective interest rate. The cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of the difference between the
initial recognition amount and the maturity amount is added to the initial recognition value (net of principal repayments, if
any) of the financial liability over the relevant period of the financial liability to arrive at the amortised cost at each
reporting date. The corresponding effect of the amortization under effective interest method is recognised as interest
expense over the relevant period of the financial liability. The same is included under finance cost in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.
(c ) Derecognition:
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When the
existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender or substantially different terms, or the terms of an
existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the Derecognition of the original
liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability
derecognised and the consideration paid is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

C. Derivative financial instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks .
Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered
into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive
and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
vi. Inventories
Trade Inventories:
Raw Materials, Loose Tools, Stores, Spares, etc. are valued at lower of weighted average cost and estimated net
realisable value. Estimated Net realisable value of raw materials is determined on the basis of the price of the finished
products in which they will be used are expected to be sold.
Work-in-Process (other than Construction Projects) is valued at lower of estimated cost (consisting of direct material and
direct labour costs plus appropriate factory overheads) and estimated net realisable value.
Finished Goods, goods in transit and goods with third parties are valued at lower of weighted average cost and estimated net
realisable value; cost includes purchase, conversion, appropriate factory overheads, any taxes or duties and other costs
incurred for bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Spares and Components for after-sales service
are valued at lower of average cost and estimated net realisable value on an item-by-item basis.
Obsolete and damaged inventories, and other anticipated losses are adequately provided for, wherever considered
necessary.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated cost of completion
and selling expenses.
Construction Projects:
In respect of the commercial construction projects promoted / developed on the company’s land, construction work-in-
progress is valued at estimated cost consisting of the cost of land (forming part of the project), development, construction and
other related costs.
Work in process is valued at lower of specifically identified costs or net realisable value.
vii. Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash as
cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprises of cash on hand, bank balances which
are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
viii. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial
period of time to get ready for its intended use are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset till the date it is ready for its
intended use or sale. Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

ix. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

A provision is recognised only when there is a present legal / constructive obligation as a result of a past event that probably
requires an outflow of resources to settle the obligation and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. Provision is
not discounted to its present value and is determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the
balance sheet date. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation
that may, but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in
respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Provisions and Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date. Contingent Assets and
related income are recognised when there is virtual certainty that inflow of economic benefit will arise.
A provision for onerous contracts is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the
contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the Company recognises
any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.

x. Revenue Recognition
(a) Sale of goods
The Company recognises revenues on the sale of products, net of discounts, sales incentives and rebates granted. Sales
are recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer. Revenues are
recognised when collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

48
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns
and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.
(b) Lease Rentals
The Company has determined that the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general
inflation to compensate for the lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases. Accordingly rental income arising from
operating leases on investment properties is accounted for on an accrual basis as per the terms of the lease contract and is
included in Revenue from Operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss due to its operating nature.
(c) Revenue from construction contracts for industrial products / equipment
Industrial products/equipment are constructed based on specifically negotiated contracts with customers. Contract
revenue includes the initial amount agreed in the contract plus any variations in contract work, claims and incentive
payments, to the extent that it is probable that they will result in revenue and can be measured reliably.
If the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, then contract revenue is recognised in profit or loss in
proportion to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion is based on percentage of actual cost
incurred up to the reporting date to the total estimated cost of the contract. Otherwise, contract revenue is recognised
only to the extent of contract costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable.
In the case of certain industrial products, the stage of completion is based on either survey of the work performed or
completion of a physical proportion of the contract work.
Contract expenses are recognised as incurred unless they create an asset related to future contract activity. An expected
loss on a contract is recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(d) Revenue from rendering of services
Revenue from service transactions is recognised as per agreements/arrangements with the customer when the related
services are rendered/provided. If the services under a single arrangement are rendered in different reporting periods,
then the consideration is allocated on a time proportion basis. Revenue is recognised only when evidence of an
arrangement is obtained and the other criteria to support revenue recognition are met, including the price is fixed or
determined, services have been rendered and collectability of the resulting receivables is reasonably assured.
(e) Revenue from Real Estate Transaction
Construction revenue on real estate projects have been recognised on percentage of completion method provided the
following thresholds have been met: (a) All critical approvals necessary for the commencement have been obtained; (b)
The expenditure incurred on construction and development costs is not less than 25 percent of the total estimated
construction and development costs; (c) At least 25 percent of the saleable project area is secured by contracts or
agreements with buyers; and (d) At least 10 percent of the agreement value is realized at the reporting date in respect of
such contracts and it is reasonable to expect that the parties to such contracts will comply with the payment terms as
defined in the contracts.
Expenditure incurred on construction and development costs excludes land development rights and borrowing costs.
Income from operation of commercial complexes is recognised over the tenure of the lease / service agreement.

xi. Employee benefits

a. Defined contribution plans
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as the related service is provided. The Company’s
contributions paid/payable to Managerial Superannuation Fund, Employees’ State Insurance Scheme, Employees’ Pension
Schemes, 1995 and other funds, are determined under the relevant approved schemes and/or statutes, and are
recognised as expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the period in which the employee renders the related
service. There are no further obligations other than the contributions payable to the approved trusts/appropriate
authorities.
b. Defined benefit plans
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.
Short-term employee benefits (payable within twelve months of rendering the service)

49
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for an amount
expected to be paid 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.
Re-measurement of net defined benefit liability
Re-measurement 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. Net
interest expense (income) on the net defined liability (assets) is computed by applying the discount rate, used to measure
the net defined liability (asset), to the net defined liability (asset) at the start of the financial year after taking into account
any changes as a result of contribution and benefit payments during the year. Net interest expense and other expenses
related to defined benefit plans are recognised in the Statement of Profit and 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 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.
Further, the Rules of the Company's Provident Fund (PF) administered by an approved Trust, require that if the Board of
Trustees is unable to pay interest at the rate declared for the Employees’ Provident Fund by the Government under para
60 of the Employees’ Provident Fund Scheme, 1952, for the reason that the return on investment is less or for any other
reason, then the deficiency shall be made good by the Company.
Other long-term employee benefits
The Company’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees
have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods. That benefit is discounted to determine its present
value. Re-measurement are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Other employee benefits include
leave encashment/long-term compensated absences schemes.

xii. Other Operating Revenue

Other Operating Revenue represents income earned from the activities incidental to business and is recognised when the right
to receive is established as per the terms of the contract.

xiii. Finance costs

Finance costs are recorded using the effective interest rate method.

xiv. Other Income

The Company’s other income includes interest and dividend income.
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest rate method. Dividend income is recognised in the Statement of
Profit and Loss on the date on which the Company’s right to receive is established.

xv. Foreign currency transactions

Income and expenses in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange
rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are
translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Foreign currency differences
are generally recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Non-monetary items which are carried in terms of historical cost
denominated in a foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

xvi. Income Taxes

Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in deferred taxes recognised in the Statement of Profit
and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which
case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
a. Current tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any
adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. It is measured using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if, the Company:
(i) has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and
(ii) intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

50
 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

b. Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for:
(i) temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination
and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss; and
(ii) temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and associates to the extent that the Company is able to
control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the
foreseeable future;
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the
extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax assets
are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit
will be realised; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent that it has become
probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse,
using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
The measurement of deferred tax reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company
expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if:
a) the entity has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and
b) the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the
same taxable entity.
Deferred tax asset / liabilities in respect of temporary differences which originate and reverse during the tax holiday period
are not recognised. Deferred tax assets / liabilities in respect of temporary differences that originate during the tax holiday
period but reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised. Deferred tax assets on unabsorbed tax losses and tax
depreciation are recognised only to the extent that there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence of their
realisation and on other items when there is reasonable certainty of realisation. The tax effect is calculated on the
accumulated timing differences at the year-end based on the tax rates and laws enacted or substantially enacted on the
balance sheet date.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) Credit Entitlement is recognised as a Deferred Tax Asset only when and to the extent there is
convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period in which such credit can be
carried forward for set-off within the time frame prescribed by the Income Tax Act, 1961. The carrying amount of MAT Credit
Entitlement is reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.

xvii. Leases (where the Company is the lessor)

The Company's assets subject to operating leases in its Estate Leasing Operations are included in Investment Property. Lease
income is recognised and included in Revenue from Operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over
the lease term. Costs, including depreciation, are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Initial direct
costs such as legal costs, brokerage costs, etc. are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
xviii. Leases (where the Company is the lessee)
Lease arrangements where the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor are
recognised as operating lease. In respect of assets taken on operating lease, lease rentals are recognised as an expense in the
Statement of Profit and Loss on straight line basis over the lease term unless;
(a) another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the benefit is derived from the leased asset;
or
(b) the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in the line with the expected general inflation to compensate for the
lessor's expected inflationary cost increases.
xix. Product warranty expense under service warranty obligation
In respect of products sold by the Company, which carry a specified warranty, future costs that will be incurred by the
Company in carrying out its contractual warranty obligations are estimated and accounted for on accrual basis.
xx. Research And Development Expenses
Research and product development costs incurred are recognised as intangible assets when feasibility has been established
and it is probable that the asset will generate probable future economic benefits. Other research costs are charged to
the Statement of Profit and Loss under the respective natural head of expense.

51
Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.

xxi. Earnings per share

Basic and diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/(loss) after tax by the weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the year.
xxii. Segment Reporting
Operating Segments are defined as components of the Company for which discrete financial information is available and are
reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The
CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company. The
Company's CODM is the Managing Director and President.
xxiii. Business Combinations of entities under common control
Business combinations involving entities under common control are accounted for using the pooling of interest method. The
net assets of the transferor entity or business are accounted at their carrying amounts on the date of acquisition subject to
necessary adjustments required to harmonise accounting policies. Any excess or shortfall of the consideration paid over the
share capital or the transferor entity or business is recognised as capital reserve under equity.
The financial information in the financial statements in respect of prior periods shall be restated as if the business combination
had occurred from the beginning of the preceding period.
xxiv. Impairment
Assets that are subject to depreciation and amortisation and assets representing investments in subsidiary and associate
companies are reviewed for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount may not
be recoverable. Such circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained decline in revenues or earnings
and material adverse changes in the economic environment.
An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its
recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the greater of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. To
calculate value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that
reflects current market rates and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash
inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs. Fair value less cost to sell is the best
estimate of the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in the arm's length transaction between knowledgeable, willing
parties, less the cost of disposal.
Impairment losses, if any, are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and included in depreciation and amortisation
expense. Impairment losses, on assets other than goodwill are reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss only to the extent
that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss
had previously been recognised.
xxv. Events after reporting date
Where events occurring after the balance sheet date till the date when the financial statements are approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company, provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such
events is adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise, events after the reporting balance sheet date of material size or
nature are only disclosed.

H. Current / Non-Current Classification

Any asset or liability is classified as current if it satisfies any of the following conditions:
i. the asset/liability is expected to be realised/settled in the Company's normal operating cycle;
ii. the asset is intended for sale or consumption;
iii. the asset/liability is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
iv. the asset/liability is expected to be realised/settled within twelve months after the reporting period;
v. the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for atleast twelve
months after the reporting date;
vi. in the case of a liability, the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for atleast
twelve months after the reporting date.
All other assets and liabilites are classified as non-current.
For the purpose of current / non-current classification of assets and liabilities, the Company has ascertained its normal cycle as
twelve months. This is based on the nature of services and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their
realisation in cash and cash equivalents.

 Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the following risks:

Interest rate risk:

A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring
higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on
the duration of asset.

Salary Risk:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As
such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan's liability.

Investment Risk:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by
reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is
below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of
investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching Risk:

The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101 of Income Tax
Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality risk:
Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have
any longevity risk.

The following tables show the valuation techniques used in measuring Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair values, as well as the significant
unobservable inputs used.

Financial instruments measured at fair value

Type Valuation technique
Non-Current Investments - quoted The use of quoted market prices
Non-Current Investments - unquoted Net book value based on the last available financial statements
Fixed rates long term borrowings The valuation model considers present value of expected payments
discounted using an appropriate discounting rate.
Forward contracts The fair value is determined using forward exchange rates at the reporting
dates.

43. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – FAIR VALUES AND RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

FVTPL - Fair Value Through Profit and Loss

FVTOCI - Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income
(1) The fair value in respect of the unquoted equity investments cannot be reliably estimated. The Company has currently valued them using the cost approach
to arrive at their fair value and include in Level 3. The cost of unquoted investments approximate the fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair
value measurements and the cost represents estimate of fair value within that range.

(2) Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, loans and trade and other payables as at 31-03-2018,
and 31-03-2017 approximate the fair values because of their short-term nature. Difference between carrying amounts and fair values of
bank deposits, other financial assets, other financial liabilities and borrowings subsequently measured at amortised cost is not significant in
each of the years presented.
(3) Assets that are not financial assets (such as receivables from statutory authorities, export benefit receivables, prepaid expenses, advances paid and certain
other receivables) amounting to Rs. 565.31 crore as at 31-03-2018 and Rs. 347.44 crore as at 31-03-2017, respectively, are not included.
(4) Other liabilities that are not financial liabilities (such as statutory dues payable, deferred revenue, advances from customers and certain other accruals)
amounting to Rs. 930.47 crore as at 31-03-2018 and Rs. 1202.51 crore as at 31-03-2017, respectively, are not included.

C. Financial risk management

The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
▪ Credit risk ;
▪ Liquidity risk ; and
▪ Market risk

Risk management framework

The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Board of
Directors has established the Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Company’s risk management policies. The
committee reports regularly to the Board of Directors on its activities.
The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and
to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the
Company’s activities. The Company, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control
environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations.
The Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the
adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company. The Audit Committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal
audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the Audit
Committee.

(II). Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter, in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are
settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible,
that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without
incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
The Company also monitors the level of expected cash inflows on trade and other receivables together with expected cash outflows
on trade and other payables.

structure and leverage risks.

A. Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on account of its borrowings and other payables/receivables in foreign currency. The
functional currency of the Company is Indian Rupee. The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk,
mostly with a maturity of less than one year from the reporting date.
The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

B. Interest rate risk

The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to fixed deposits and borrowings from
financial institutions. It is the Company’s policy to obtain the most favourable interest rate available, and to retain
flexibility of fund-raising options in future between fixed and floating rates of interest, across maturity profiles and
currencies.
Exposure to interest rate risk
Company’s interest rate risk arises from borrowings. Borrowings issued at floating rates exposes to fair value
interest rate risk. The interest rate profile of the Company’s interest-bearing financial instruments as reported to
the management of the Company is as follows:

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed-rate instruments

The Company does not account for any fixed-rate financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or
loss. Therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.

43. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – FAIR VALUES AND RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

C. CREDIT RISK
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its
contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers and investments in debt
securities.
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.
Trade and other receivables
Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this, the
businesses periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current
economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable.
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful receivables that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of
trade and other receivables.

The Company's exposure to customers is diversified and no single customer contributes to more than 10% of outstanding
accounts receivable and unbilled revenue as at 31st March, 2018 and 31st March, 2017.
Impairment
The ageing of trade and other receivables that were not impaired was as follows:
(Rupees in crore)
As at As at
31/03/2018 31/03/2017
Neither past due nor impaired 1,385.88 1,239.46
More than 6 months and less than 1 year 229.75 208.28
More than 1 year and less than 3 years 448.45 396.51
More than 3 years 288.87 179.92
2,352.95 2,024.17

Management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 6 months are still collectible in full, based on
historical payment behaviour and extensive analysis of customer credit risk, on a case to case basis, with reference to the
customer's credit quality and prevailing market conditions. Based on past experience, the Company does not expect any material
loss on these receivables and hence no allowance is deemed necessary on account of Expected Credit Loss (ECL).

The movement in the allowance for doubtful receivables during the year was as follows:

(Rupees in crore)
Collective impairments
Balance as at 31/03/2017 139.25
Allowance for doubtful receivables recognised during the year ended 31st March, 2018. 26.37
Balance as at 31/03/2018 165.62
Bad debts written off during the year ended 31st March, 2018. 61.95
Loans and advances are monitored by the Company on a regular basis and these are niether past due nor impaired.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with credit worthy banks and financial institustions and reviews it on
ongoing basis. The credit worthiness of such banks and financial institutions is evaluated by the management on an ongoing basis
and is considered to be good.

44. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence
and to sustain future development of the business. Management monitors the return on capital as well as the level of
dividends to ordinary shareholders.
The Board of Directors seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher
levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position.
The Company monitors capital using a ratio of ‘adjusted net debt’ to ‘equity’. For this purpose, adjusted net debt is
defined as total liabilities, comprising interest-bearing loans and borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. The
Company's adjusted net debt to equity ratio for two years is given below:
(Rupees in crore)
As at As at
31/03/2018 31/03/2017

Non-Current Borrowings 794.19 1,128.30

(a) Identification of Business Segments

The Indian Accounting Standard 108 (Ind AS-108) on “Segment Reporting” requires disclosure of segment information to facilitate better understanding of
the performance of an enterprise’s business operations. The Company has identified Business Segments to comply with the operating segment disclosures
as per Ind AS-108, considering the organization structure, internal financial reporting system, and the risk-return profiles of the businesses. The Company’s
organisation structure and management processes are designated to support effective management of multiple businesses while retaining focus on each
one of them.
The Consumer Durables segment includes Furniture and Interiors, Office Equipment, Home Appliances, Locks and Security Equipment.
The Industrial Products segment includes Process Plant and Equipment, Toolings, Special Purpose Machines, Precision Components/Engineering, Electricals
and Electronics, Electric Motors, Storage Solutions and Material Handling Equipment. Estate leasing, Property Development and Ready-mix Concrete
operations are included under the Others segment.
The Company’s exports constitute less than 10% of its total revenue. All of the Company’s manufacturing operations are conducted in India. The
commercial risks and returns involved on the basis of geographic segmentation are relatively insignificant. Accordingly, segment disclosures based on
geographic segments are not considered relevant.
(b) Segment Revenue, Results, Assets and Liabilities
Segment revenue and results are arrived at based on amounts identifiable to each of the segments. Inter-segment transfers are valued at cost or market-
based prices, as may be negotiated between the segments with an overall optimization objective for the Company. Other unallocated expenses include
corporate expenses, as well as expenses incurred on common shared-services provided to the segments. Segment assets include all operating assets used
by the business segment and consist mainly of net fixed assets, debtors and inventories. Segment liabilities primarily include creditors and advances from
customers. Unallocated assets mainly relate to the factory, administrative, employee welfare, and marketing infrastructure at Vikhroli, Mumbai and at up-
country establishments, not directly identifiable to any business segment. Liabilities which have not been identified between the segments are shown as
unallocated liabilities.

49. DISCLOSURE IN RESPECT OF LEASES

(a) The Company’s significant leasing arrangements, where the Company is a lessee, are in respect of operating leases for
motor cars, laptop computers and premises (office, godown, show-room, retail store, residential, etc.) occupied by the
Company. The aggregate lease rentals payable by the Company are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as Rent
[Note 34(i)], Establishment and Other Expenses [Note 34(j)] and Motor Car and Lorry Expenses [Note 34(l)].
The total charge to the Statement of Profit and Loss is Rs. 25.86 crore (Previous Year: Rs. 27.05 crore).
The future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases in respect of premises, motor cars and
laptop computers, due within a period of one year are estimated at Rs. 16.53 crore (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. 17.79 crore),
those due later than one year but not later than five years at Rs. 9.01 crore (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. 14.96 crore), and
those due later than five years at Nil (as at 31-3-2017: Nil).
(b) Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor, is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Initial direct costs incurred specifically to earn revenues from operating leases of fixed assets are charged to the
Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. These assets pertain to land, commercial/residential premises, forklifts and
vending machines given on lease on varying tenure and other terms.
In respect of assets given on operating leases, the gross book value and the accumulated depreciation at the end of the
year, aggregate to Rs. 399.05 crore and Rs. 27.58 crore, respectively (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. 399.91 crore and Rs. 19.12 crore,
respectively); and the depreciation charge for the year corresponding to the period of lease rentals, is estimated at
Rs. 9.19 crore (previous year: Rs. 11.77 crore).
The future minimum lease rentals receivable under non-cancellable operating leases within a period of one year are
estimated at Rs. 78.36 crore (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. 83.25 crore), those due later than one year but not later than five years
at Rs.73.13 crore (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. 72.54 crore), and those due later than five years at Rs. Nil (as at 31-3-2017: Rs. Nil).

50. DISCLOSURE IN RESPECT OF FRAUD

During the previous year, the Company identified a fraud amounting to about Rs. 32.00 crore, committed by employees of a
line of business in collusion with third parties. The Company initiated an internal investigation in the matter.
The Company has filed a criminal complaint with appropriate authorities against the individuals involved, and will pursue
the matter further. The Company has taken appropriate measures and has further strengthened internal processes and
controls to prevent such cases.

51. PREVIOUS YEAR'S RESTATEMENT

During the year, the Company has restated the financial results for the year ended 31st March 2017, in accordance with
the requirements of the Ind AS 8 – ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ on account of
derecognition of revenues/receivables of Rs. 97.48 crore and related costs/inventories of Rs. 32.58 crore pursuant to
revenue recognition on percentage of completion basis and provision for product warranties of Rs. 2.59 crore, which has
resulted in reduction in profit after tax for the year ended 31st March 2017 of Rs. 40.31 crore (tax of Rs. 22.00 crore).

52. INTERNAL CONTROLS

A material weakness was identified related to the inadequacy of manual monitoring controls over the overhead absorption
on inventory (not fully stabilised in the Information Technology environment as at the year-end), which could have
potentially resulted in the Company mis-stating its inventory balances with a corresponding effect on profits, changes in
inventories of Finished Goods, Work-in-process and Stock-in-trade in its financial statements. However, there was timely
detection and correction by the management of certain errors that occurred in the valuation of inventory as at 31st
March, 2018 whilst preparing the financial statements under review. The Management has since strengthened its manual
control processes to prevent recurrence of such misstatements in inventory valuation.
