Foot notes for Ind AS adjustments

i) Property, plant and equipment

The Company has availed the exemption available under Ind AS 101 to continue the carrying value for all of its Property, Plant and Equipment's and Intangibles recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.

ii) Investment property

Under the previous GAAP, investment properties were presented as part of property, plant and equipment. Under Ind AS, investment properties are required to be separately presented on the face of the balance sheet. There is no impact on the total equity or profit as a result of this adjustment.

iii) Investment in subsidiaries

Under Ind AS, a first- time adopter can measure investments at cost determined in accordance with Ind AS 27 or at deemed cost. The deemed cost of the investment can be the fair value of the investment at the transition date or the previous IGAAP carrying amount. The Company has opted to measure its investments in subsidiary at the IGAAP carrying amount as its deemed cost on the date of transition.

iv) Investment in equity of other companies

Under the previous GAAP, long term investment were measured at cost. Under Ind AS, the company has opted to measure its investment in other equities at fair value through profit or loss. This has resulted in increase or decrease in fair value of investment with corresponding increase or decrease in provision for gain/loss on fair valuation of investment.

v) Security deposit

Under the previous GAAP, interest free lease security deposits (that are refundable in cash on completion of the lease term) are recorded at their transaction value. Under Ind AS, all financial assets are required to be recognised at fair value. Accordingly, the company has fair valued these security deposits under Ind AS and the difference between the fair value and the transaction value of the security deposit has been recognised as prepaid rent.

vi) Defined benefit plans

Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses were recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss. Under Ind AS, the actuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability / asset which is recognised in other comprehensive income. Consequently, the tax effect of the same has also been recognised in other comprehensive income under Ind AS instead of profit or loss.

vii) Loan to subsidiary (partnership firm)

Under previous GAAP, interest free loans given to subsidiaries are accounted at their transaction value. Under Ind AS, the Company has discounted the interest free loans given to subsidiaries with corresponding increase in the investment.

viii) Loan to employees

Under previous GAAP interest free loans were given to employees, under Ind AS the Company discounted the interest free loans given to employees with corresponding increase in employee benefits.

ix) Proposed dividend

Under the previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the Board of Directors after the balance sheet date but before the approval of the financial statements were considered as adjusting events. Accordingly, proposed dividend was recognized as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognized when the same is approved by the shareholders in the general meeting.

x) Past Business Combination

We refer to note no. 1.26(B) in relation to past business combination, as per Ind AS, as the business combination has happened between Companies under the common control, accordingly the assets and liabilities after inter company elimination of the Company has been restated and has been given effect on transition date i.e. April 1, 2016

xi) Deferred tax

GAAP requires deferred tax accounting using income statement approach, which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accountable profits for the period. Ind AS 12 requires entities to account deferred tax using balance sheet approach which focuses on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. The application of Ind AS 12 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences which was not required under GAAP.

In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. According to the accounting policies, the Company has to account for such difference. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction in component of equity.
