thirty Fourth ANNUAL REPORT 2022-2023

Significant accounting Policies and notes to the standalone


financial statements
1.04 USE OF JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES & ASSUMPTIONS
While preparing financial statements in conformity with Ind AS, the management makes certain estimates and assumptions
that require subjective and complex judgments. These judgments affect the application of accounting policies and the
reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the statement of financial
position date and the reported amount of income and expenses for the reporting period. Financial reporting results rely
on our estimate of the effect of certain matters that are inherently uncertain and more particular to COVID-19 pandemic
situation. Future events rarely develop exactly as forecast and the best estimates require adjustments, as actual results
may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The managemnet continually evaluate these
estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods
affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying
accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are as below:
Key sources of estimation uncertainity
a) Financial instruments; (Refer note 4.08)
b) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets; (Refer note 1.06 & 1.07)
c) Valuation of inventories; (Refer note 1.10)
d) Assets and obligations relating to employee benefits; (Refer note 4.05)
e) Evaluation of recoverability of deferred tax assets; (Refer note 2.05) and
f) Contingencies. (Refer note 4.02)
1.05 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
(i) Functional and presentation currency
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in INR, which is also the Company’s functional and presentation
currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Monetary items
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of
the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the
translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end exchange rates are generally
recognised in statement of profit and loss.
Non – Monetary items
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange
rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
1.06 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The
initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into the location
and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of
any decommissioning obligation, if any. The purchase price is the aggregate amount paid and the fair value of any other
consideration given to acquire the asset.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it
is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be
measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced.
All other repairs and maintenance are charged to statement of profit and loss during the reporting period in which they are
incurred.

Gujarat Poly electronics limited

Significant accounting Policies and notes to the standalone


financial statements
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected
to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property,
plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and
is recognised in statement of profit and loss.
Stores & Spares which meet the definition of property plant and equipment and satisfy the recognition criteria of Ind AS 16
are capitalized as property, plant and equipment.
Depreciation on Property, plant and equipment
Depreciation on Property, Plant & Equipment is provided on straight line method except Furniture and Fixtures. In accordance
with requirements prescribed under Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013, the Company has assessed the estimated useful
lives of its Property, Plant & Equipment and has adopted the useful lives and residual value as prescribed in Schedule II.
Furniture and Fixtures are depreciated on written down value basis.
Depreciation on additions/deletions during the year are provided on pro rata basis. In case of impairment, depreciation is
provided on the revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with
the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
1.07 INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible
assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on straight line basis over their useful economic life and assessed for
impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the
amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at each year end. The amortisation expense
on Intangible assets with finite lives and impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Business application software intended for long term use are recorded at their acquisition cost and the cost of assets at their
carrying value.
Amortisation of intangible assets
Computer software is amortized over the estimated useful life of the assets.
1.08 IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
Carrying amount of tangible assets and intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount
by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair
value less costs of disposal and value in use.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair
value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an
appropriate valuation model is used.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable
cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or Company’s assets (cash-generating units).
Non- financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment
at the end of each reporting period.
1.09 LEASES
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at
the inception date, whether fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or the
arrangement conveys a right to use the asset, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

financial statements
As a Lessee
Operating Lease
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Company as lessee are
classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are
charged to statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease unless the payments are structured
to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases.
1.10 INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined mainly on FIFO basis) and the net realizable value after providing for
obsolescence and other losses, where considered necessary. Cost includes all charges in bringing the goods to the point of
sale, including octroi and other levies, transit insurance and receiving charges. Work-in-progress and Finished goods include
appropriate proportion of overheads and, where applicable, excise duty.
1.11 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits
held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or
less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
1.12 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instruments.
Initial Recognition and Measurement – Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair
value through profit or loss and ancillary costs related to borrowings) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the
financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the
acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Classification and Subsequent Measurement: Financial Assets
The Company classifies financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive
income (“FVTOCI”) or fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) on the basis of following:
- the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and
- the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Amortised Cost:
A financial asset is classified and measured at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
- the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual
cash flows and
- 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 principal amount outstanding.
FVTOCI:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTOCI if both of the following conditions are met:
- the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and
selling financial assets and
- 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 principal amount outstanding.

Significant accounting Policies and notes to the standalone


financial statements
FVTPL:
A financial asset is classified and measured at FVTPL unless it is measured at amortised cost or at FVTOCI.
All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortised cost or fair value, depending
on the classification of the financial assets.
Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised
cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
For Trade Receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments,
which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
Classification and Subsequent measurement: Financial Liabilities
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade payables and other financial liabilities.
Financial Liabilities at FVTPL:
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is held for trading or are designated upon initial
recognition as FVTPL.
Gains or losses on financial liabilities held for trading are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Other Financial Liabilities:
Other financial liabilities (including borrowings and trade and other payables) are subsequently measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest
expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments
(including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and
other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to
the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Derecognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities:
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire,
or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and
rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers
assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred
assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
1.13 PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND CONTINGENT ASSETS
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount
can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a current pre-
tax rate. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the case of:
• a present obligation arising from the past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to
settle the obligation;
• a present obligation arising from the past events, when no reliable estimate is possible;
• a possible obligation arising from past events, unless the probability of outflow of resources is remote.

1.14 REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is measured at the value of the consideration received or receivable, after deduction of any trade discount, volume
rebates and any taxes or duties collected on behalf of Government such as Goods and Services Tax, etc.
Adopting Ind AS 115 the Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable
that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and specific criteria have been met for each of the Company’s
activities as described below.
Sale of Goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control of the products being sold is transferred to our customers and there
are no longer any unfulfilled obligations. The performance obligations in our contracts are fulfilled at the time of dispatch,
delivery or upon formal customer acceptance depending on customer terms.
Other Revenue
Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable rate
of interest.
Revenue in respect of insurance/other claims etc, is recognized only when it is reasonably certain that the ultimate collection
will be made.
1.15 TAXES ON INCOME
Current Tax:
Tax on income for the current period is determined on the basis on estimated taxable income and tax credits computed in
accordance with the provisions of the relevant tax laws and based on the expected outcome of assessments / appeals.
Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit
and loss.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred tax:
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any
unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available
against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can
be utilised.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised
deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that
future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is
realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the
reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit and loss is recognised outside the statement of
profit and loss. Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity.
1.16 GOVERNMENT GRANT
Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached
conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it shall be recognised in profit or loss on a
systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are
intended to compensate. The above criteria is also used for recognition of incentives under various scheme notified by the
Government.

1.17 GRATUITY AND OTHER POST - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
a) Short-term obligations
Short term employee benefits are recognised as an expense at an undiscounted amount in the Statement of profit & loss
of the year in which the related services are rendered.
b) Post-employment obligations
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
• defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
• defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Gratuity obligations
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of
the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit
obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated
future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have
terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and
the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are
recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained
earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are
recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss as past service cost.
Defined contribution plans
The company pays provident fund contributions to publicly administered provident funds as per local regulations. The
company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted
for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due.
Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments
is available.
c) Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the
employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments
to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected
unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have
terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and
changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in statement of profit and loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right
to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is
expected to occur.
1.18 EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders
(after deducting attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.

the Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal, Ahmedabad (""NCLT"") on 3rd August, 2022 seeking permission to
issue further 9,81,500 ½ % Non-cumulative redeemable preference shares of Rs. 100 each in lieu of the existing
Preference Shares i.e. 9,81,500- ½ % Non-cumulative Redeemable Preference Shares of Rs. 100 each. Upon sanction
of the aforesaid petition and issue of these further redeemable preference shares, the existing unredeemed
preference shares shall be deemed to have been redeemed. The matter is presently pending before NCLT.

b) Defined Benefit Plans:
The Company sponsors funded defined benefit plans for qualifying employee. The defined benefit plans are administered
by separate fund that are leagally separate fund from the entity. The board of the fund is responsible for the investment
policy with regard to assets of the fund.
These plans typically expose the Company to Actuarial risks such as : investment risk, interest rate risk, longetivity risk
and salary risk. No other post-retirement benefit are provided to the employees.
Investment Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by
reference to government bond yields. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan
deficit. Currently the plan has investment with LIC of India.
Interest Risk A decrease in the interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an
increase in the return on the plan’s debt investments.
Longevity Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the
mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy
of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.
Salary Risk The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan
participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.
