Notes forming part of the Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2016 : 1. Company Overview : The Company is a Non Deposit taking Core Investment Company, as defined in the Core Investment Companies (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2011. Since the Company is not a Systemically Important Non Deposit taking Core Investment Company, it is not required to obtain Certificate of Registration under Section 45-IA of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The Company is a subsidiary of Sundaram Trading and Investment Private Limited. Operating Cycle of the Company is considered to be of 12 months. 2. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies : 2.1 Basis of Accounting and Preparation of Financial Statements : These accounts have been brpared under historical cost convention and comply with the Accounting Standards, specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. All income and expenses having a material bearing on the financial statements are recognised on the accrual basis. 2.2 Use of Estimates : The brparation of the financial statements in conformity with the GAAP requires that the Management makes estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities, as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year under report. Contingencies are recorded, when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2.3 Fixed Assets and Debrciation : a) Fixed Assets : Fixed Assets are stated at their original cost of acquisition including incidental expenses related to acquisition and installation of the concerned assets. Fixed Assets are shown net of accumulated debrciation, wherever applicable and amortisation. b) Debrciation and Amortisation : i) Debrciation on fixed assets is calculated on straight-line basis using the rates arrived at based on the useful lives estimated by the management. Debrciation is charged on pro-rata basis for assets purchased / sold during the year. The Management's estimate of the useful lives of various fixed assets which is in line with the provisions of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 is given below : Nature of the Asset Estimated Useful Life Furnitures and Fixtures 10 years 2.4 Investments : a) Long Term Investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution is made to recognise a decline other than temporary, in value of investments. b) Short Term Investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value. 2.5 Revenue Recognition : a) The Company recognises income on accrual basis. However, revenue recognition is postponed in respect of specific items of income, where the ultimate collection, thereof is uncertain. b) Interest income is accrued over the period of the loan / investment. c) Dividend is accrued in the year in which it is declared whereby a right to receive is established. d) Profit / loss on sale of investments is recognised as per the terms of the underlying contracts. 2.6 Employee Benefits : a) Employee benefits include interalia, amounts paid for the services of the Key Management Personnel on deputation. No separate provisions of retirement benefits or privilege leave benefits of such employees are recognised in the books of the Company. The Company is not liable for payment of gratuity. b) Privilege leave benefits : Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilised within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. 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 the actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the year-end. Actuarial gains / losses are immediately taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The Company brsents the leave as a current liability in the balance sheet, to the extent it does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date. Where the Company has the unconditional legal and contractual right to defer the settlement for a period beyond 12 months, the same is brsented as non-current liability. 2.7 Taxation : a) Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date. b) Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of timing differences between taxable income and accounting income originating during the current year and reversal of timing differences for the earlier years. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the statement of profit and loss. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible timing differences only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. In situations where the Company has unabsorbed debrciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that they can be realised against future taxable profits. At each reporting date, the Company re-assesses unrecognised deferred tax assets. It recognises unrecognised deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. The Company writes-down the carrying amount of deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which deferred tax asset can be realised. Any such write-down is reversed to the extent that it becomes reasonably certain or virtually certain, as the case may be, that sufficient future taxable income will be available. c) Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the statement of profit and loss as current tax. The Company recognises MAT credit available as an asset only to the extent that there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e. the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which the Company recognises MAT credit as an asset in accordance with the guidance note on Accounting for Credit Available in respect of Minimum Alternative Tax under the Income Tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit to the statement of profit and loss and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the MAT credit entitlement asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent the Company does not have convincing evidence that it will pay normal tax during the specified period. 2.8 Foreign Currency Translation : In accordance with the paragraph 46A of the Accounting Standard - 11, "The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates", the Company has exercised the irrevocable option and accordingly, the exchange differences arising on reporting of long-term foreign currency monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the period, or reported in brvious financial statements, in so far as they relate to the acquisition of a debrciable capital asset, is added to or deducted from the cost of the asset and is debrciated over the balance life of the asset, and in other cases, is accumulated in "Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference Account" in the financial statements and amortised over the balance period of such long term asset or liability, by recognition as income or expense in the statement of profit and loss. Long-term foreign currency monetary item means any asset or liability that is exbrssed in a foreign currency and has a term of twelve months or more at the date of origination of the asset or liability. Transactions in foreign currency, other than those covered by long-term foreign currency monetary items are accounted at the exchange rates brvailing on the dates of transactions. Gains / losses arising out of fluctuations in the exchange rates in respect of these transactions are dealt with in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which they arise. 2.9 Impairment The management has a policy to review at each balance sheet date, the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets were impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of impairment loss. Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows expected from the continuing use of the asset and from its disposal are discounted to their brsent value using a br-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of time value of money and the risk specific to the asset. Reversal of impairment loss is recognised immediately as income in the statement of profit and loss. 2.10 Earnings per share : In determining earnings per share, the Company considers the net profit after tax and includes the post tax effect of extra-ordinary / exceptional item, if any. The number of shares used in computing basic earnings per share is the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. 2.11 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets : A provision is recognised when the Company has a brsent obligation as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted to their brsent value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is brsented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement. A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a brsent obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements. Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed. 2.12 Cash flow statement : Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit / (loss) before extraordinary items and tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information. 2.13 Cash and cash equivalents : Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less. 3.1 SEGMENT REPORTING : The Company is a Non Deposit taking Core Investment Company, as defined in the Core Investment Companies (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2011 and all activities of the Company revolve around this business.
