2 : SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as prescribed under section 133 of the Companies act, 2013 (“The Act”) read with rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules 2016 issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs (‘MCA’). All other relevant provisions of the Act, as amended, are also complied with in these financial Statements.The Company has prepared these financial statements which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2018, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended March 31, 2018, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (together hereinafter referred to as ‘financial statements’).

The Company has uniformly applied the accounting policies during the period presented.

2.2 Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each balance sheet date. Any revision to accounting estimates and assumptions are recognised prospectively i.e. recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods affected.

In particular, information about significant judgements and areas of estimation uncertainty in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are discussed below:

Significant management judgements

The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the Company that have the most significant effect on the financial statements.

- Recognition of deferred tax assets - The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company’s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized.

- Evaluation of indicators for impairment of assets - The evaluation of applicability of indicators of impairment of assets requires assessment of several external and internal factors which could result in deterioration of recoverable amount of the assets.

- Classification of leases - The Company enters into leasing arrangements for various assets. The classification of the leasing arrangement as a finance lease or operating lease is based on an assessment of several factors, including, but not limited to, transfer of ownership of leased asset at end of lease term, lessee’s option to purchase and estimated certainty of exercise of such option, proportion of lease term to the asset’s economic life, proportion of present value of minimum lease payments to fair value of leased asset and extent of specialized nature of the leased asset.

Estimation uncertainty

Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different.

- Recoverability of advances/ receivables - At each balance sheet date, based on discussions with the respective counterparties and internal assessment of their credit worthiness, the management assesses the recoverability and expected credit loss of outstanding receivables and advances. Such assessment requires significant management judgement based on financial position of the counter-parties, market information and other relevant factor.

- Classification of assets and liabilities into current and non-current - The management classifies the assets and liabilities into current and non-current categories based on management’s expectation of the timing of realisation of the assets or timing of contractual settlement of liabilities.

- Warranty provision - The management makes estimate of costs that would be incurred with respect to warranties given on products. The provision requires use of several estimates based on past data and expectations of future.

- Impairment of assets - In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amounts of each asset (in case of non-financial assets) based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future cash flows and the determination of a suitable discount rate.

- Useful lives of depreciable/amortisable assets (Property, plant and equipment and intangible) - Management reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable/ amortisable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected utility of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical and economic obsolescence that may change the utility of certain software and other plant and equipment.

- Revenue recognition - The Company uses the percentage completion method in accounting for its revenue from construction services. The use of percentage-of-completion method requires the Company to estimate costs expended to date as a proportion of the total costs to be expended. Costs expended have been used to measure progress towards completion as there is a direct relationship between input and output.

- Contract estimates - The Company, being a part of construction industry, prepares budgets in respect of each project to compute project profitability. The two major components of contract estimate are ‘claims arising during construction period’ (described below) and ‘budgeted costs to complete the contract’. While estimating these components various assumptions are considered by the management such as (i) Work will be executed in the manner expected so that the project is completed timely (ii) Consumption norms will remain same (iii) Assets will operate at the same level of productivity as determined (iv) Wastage will not exceed the normal % as determined etc. (v) Estimates for contingencies (vi) There will be no change in design and the geological factors will be same as communicated and (vii) Price escalations etc. Due to such complexities involved in the budgeting process, contract estimates are highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

- Recoverability of claims - The Company has claims in respect of cost over-run arising due to client caused delays, suspension of projects, deviation in design and change in scope of work etc., which are at various stages of negotiation/ discussion with the clients or under arbitration. The realisability of these claims are estimated based on contractual terms, historical experience with similar claims as well as legal opinion obtained from internal and external experts, wherever necessary. Changes in facts of the case or the legal framework may impact realisability of these claims.

- Defined benefit obligation (DBO) - Management’s estimate of the DBO is based on a number of critical underlying assumptions such as standard rates of inflation, trends, mortality, discount rate and anticipation of future salary increases. Variation in these assumptions may significantly impact the DBO amount and the annual defined benefit expenses.

- Fair value measurements - Management applies valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments (where active market quotes are not available). This involves developing estimates and assumptions consistent with how market participants would price the instrument. Management bases its assumptions on observable data as far as possible but this is not always available. In that case management uses the best information available.

2.3 Standards issued but not yet effective

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

On March 28 , 2018, MCA has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2018 containing Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration which clarifies the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income, when an entity has received or paid advance consideration in a foreign currency. This amendment will come into force from April 1, 2018.

The Company do not expect that the adoption of the amendments to the standards will have an impact on the financial statements of the Company.

b) Ind AS 115, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

On March 28, 2018, Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified the Ind AS115, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The core principle of the new standard is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Further the new standard requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts with customers.

The standard permits two possible methods of transition:-

Retrospective approach- Under this approach the standard will be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with Ind AS8-Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

Retrospectively with cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application (Cumulative catch - up approach)

The effective date for adoption of Ind AS 115 is financial periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018. The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and its impact on the financial statements.

Note 3.1: Impairment

The management has performed impairment assessment of three cogeneration power plants set up in collaboration with certain sugar mills on Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT) basis for a period of 15 years. As at March 31, 2018, such plants have a power generation capacity of 15 MW each. The assessment has been done on the basis of assumptions of useful life of assets, discounted cash flows with significant underlying assumptions, achievement of certain operating capacity and the ability of new technology to perform on a consistent basis.

The management had filed a writ petition with the High Court of Punjab and Haryana for the extension of the concession period wherein the Hon’ble Court has directed the sugar mills, vide its order dated March 23, 2017, to consider the request made by the Company for the extension within a period of 3 months. Additionally, the Company has also initiated arbitration proceedings with the sugar mills for the extension. Based on the assessment and advice from an independent legal counsel on the availability of concession period, excluding the available renewal period by exercising the option for renewal/ extension of the concession period, the management, is confident, that there exists reasonable certainty that arrangement shall be extended for a term of 5 years. Management carried out an impairment assessment and has recorded an impairment of INR 3,500.00 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 6,839.46 lacs) in carrying value of these assets during the year ended March 31, 2018. Accordingly, management believes that the estimates of the useful lives are reasonable and no further material adjustments to the carrying value of these plants are necessary.

Out of the aforementioned impairment amounting to INR 3,500.00 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 6,839.46 lacs), INR 2,850.00 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 5,881.21 lacs) pertains to, two power plants, which were yet to be capitalised and INR 650.00 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 958.25 lacs) is for power plant which has already been capitalised. This has been recognised in the statement of profit and loss under the head exceptional item during the year ended March 31, 2018. The recoverable amount of INR 27,706.12 lacs as at March 31, 2018 (March 31, 2017 INR 32,091.86 lacs) of all three cogeneration power plants is based on value in use and determined at the level of the Cash Generating Unit (CGU). The CGU consisted of assets relating to the power plant, and the cash flows of the CGU are discounted at a rate of 16.28% (previous year 13.80%) on a post-tax basis.

Note 3.2: Contractual commitments

The Company does not have any outstanding contractual commitments to purchase any items of property, plant and equipment. Note 3.3: Property, plant and equipment are pledged as collateral for borrowings from banks (Refer Note 16 and Note 19).

Note 5.1.1 The management has committed to provide continued operational and financial support to its subsidiaries for meeting their working capital and other financial requirements and based upon approved future projections of the subsidiaries, believes that no impairment exist in excess of the provision already created and accordingly, no further adjustment is considered necessary in respect of carrying value of investments.

Note 5.1.2 One of the lenders of A2Z Green Waste Management Limited (hereinafter referred to as AGWML), IL&FS Financial Service Limited (“IFIN”) has invoked pledge on Nil (March 31, 2017 5,455,998) equity shares of AGWML constituting Nil (March 31, 2017 23.98%) of the paid up equity share capital of AGWML and have adjusted/appropriated an amount of Nil (March 31, 2017 INR 940.07 lacs) towards interest payable by AGWML to IFIN.

Note 5.1.3 During the year ended March 31, 2017, the Company acquired 70,000 equity shares, which is 5% of total share capital of A2Z Powertech Limited. After this acquisition, total shareholding of the Company in A2Z Powertech Limited has increased from 95% to 100%.

Note 5.1.4 During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company has sold the investments in one of its subsidiary company, i.e., Star Transformers Limited. Consequently, Star Transformers Limited has ceased to be a subsidiary of the Company.

Note 5.1.5 Investment in subsidiaries, other than in shares, represents employee stock option granted to employees of subsidiaries.

Note 5.2: The Company, as at March 31, 2018, has non-current investments amounting to INR 20,151.90 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 19,408.80 lacs) other current financial assets (net of impairment) amounting to INR 410.73 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 399.95 lacs) and current financial assets-loan amounting to INR 592.85 lacs in its subsidiary A2Z Green Waste Management Limited which has 100% holding in various SPVs under its fold (hereinafter A2Z Green Waste Management Limited together with its subsidiaries is referred to as A2Z Green Waste Management Group). While A2Z Green Waste Management Group has incurred losses during its initial years and consolidated net-worth as at March 31, 2018 has been completely eroded, the underlying projects are expected to achieve adequate profitability on substantial completion. Based on internal assessment and valuation report from an independent valuer, the recoverable amount from the underlying investments/assets is higher than the net worth of A2Z Green Waste Management Group. Therefore, the management believes that the realisable amount of these subsidiaries is higher than the carrying value of the non-current investments, other current financial assets and current financial assets-loans due to which these are considered as good and recoverable.

Note 5.3 The Company does not have any quoted investments.

Note 6.1 Disclosure pursuant to the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 in respect of loans and advances to related parties in the nature of loans:

The delay in billing these amounts is on account of conclusion of reconciliations with the customers, pending joint measurement/ survey of the work done till date and non-achievement of milestones as per the contractual terms. Management is in discussion with the customers and expects to bill these amounts at the earliest, and believes that whilst it may take some time to recover the amounts owing to completion of certain administrative and contractual matters, the current provision being carried in the books is adequate and no further material adjustments are considered necessary in respect of above balances.

Note 8.1: Inventories with a value of INR 334.90 lacs (March 31, 2017 INR 765.66 lacs) are carried at net realisable value, this being lower than cost.

The timing of outflows will vary as and when warranty claim will arise.

ii) Defined benefit plan and long term employment benefit A General description:

Gratuity [Defined benefit plan]:

Gratuity liability is defined benefit obligation and is provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method made at the end of each financial year. The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn salary) for each completed year of service. The scheme is funded with an insurance company (Kotak Life Insurance) in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

Leave wages [Short term employment benefit]:

The employees of the Company are entitled to leave as per the leave policy of the Company. The Company treats accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as long term employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long term compensated absences are provided for based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the year end. Actuarial gains or losses are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss.

These assumptions were developed by management with the assistance of independent actuaries. Discount factors are determined close to each year-end by reference to market yields of high quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension obligation. Other assumptions are based on current actuarial benchmarks and management’s historical experience.

Sensitivity analysis

Significant actuarial assumptions for the determination of the defined benefit obligation are discount rate, expected salary increase and mortality. The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting year, while holding all other assumptions constant. The results of sensitivity analysis is given below:

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Note 20 : FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

(i) Fair value measurement of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are grouped into three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability of significant inputs to the measurement, as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for financial instruments.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

(iii) Fair value of instruments measured at amortised cost

The carrying values of financial instruments measured at amortised cost is considered to be a reasonable approximation of their fair values.

(iv) Valuation process and technique used to determine fair value

The fair value of derivative liability is estimated using Black Scholes technique. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are as shown below:-

Note 21 : FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

(i) Financial instruments by category

For amortised cost instruments, carrying value represents the best estimate of fair value.

(ii) Risk management

The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the related impact in the financial statements.

The Company’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (of the company) under policies approved by the board of directors. The board of directors provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and investment of excess liquidity.

A. Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Company. The. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, investments carried at amortised cost and deposits with banks and financial institutions. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the reporting date.

The Company continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either individually or by the Company, and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. Where available at reasonable cost, external credit ratings and/or reports on customers and other counterparties are obtained and used. The Company’s policy is to deal only with creditworthy counterparties.

The Company’s receivables comprises of trade receivables. During the periods presented, the Company made no write-offs of trade receivables and it does not expect to receive future cash flows or recoveries from collection of cash flows previously written off. The Company has certain trade receivables that have not been settled by the contractual due date, as given below:

In respect of trade and other receivables, the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers in various industries and geographical areas. Based on historical information about customer default rates management consider the credit quality of trade receivables that are not past due or impaired to be good. The Company recognizes lifetime expected credit losses on trade receivables using a simplified approach and uses historical information to arrive at loss percentage relevant to each category of trade receivables. The Company follows a single loss rate approach and estimates expected credit loss on trade receivables to be 3%. Further, specific provision is made for any individual debtors which are considered to be doubtful and non-recoverable in part or in full. The reconciliation of expected credit losses on trade receivables is given below.

The credit risk for other financial assets is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable organisations with high quality external credit ratings. However, specific provision is made in case a particular receivable is considered to be non-recoverable.

B. Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the nature of the business, the Company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed facilities.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. The Company takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates. In addition, the Company’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

C. Market risk

(a) Interest rate risk

(i) Liabilities

The Company’s policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long-term financing. As at March 31, 2018, the Company is exposed to changes in market interest rates through bank borrowings at variable interest rates. The Company’s investments in fixed deposits all pay fixed interest rates.

(b) Foreign exchange risk

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the US Dollar, Ugandan Shillings and Zambian Kwacha. Foreign exchange risk arises from recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency.

Unhedged foreign currency exposure

The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period expressed are as follows:
