SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1. Accounting Convention: The financial statements are brpared under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting, in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in India, the Accounting Standards issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. 2. Use of Estimates The brparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Management believes that the estimates used in the brparation of financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from the estimates. 3. Revenue Recognition: a) Sales are accounted on mercantile basis when the sale of goods is completed and are recorded net of returns, trade discounts, rebates, sales taxes. b) Export incentives are accounted on accrual basis and include the estimated value of export incentives receivable under the Duty Draw Back Scheme and other applicable schemes. c) Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive the same is established. d) Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis. e) Revenue in respect of insurance/other claims, interest etc. is recognized only when it is reasonably certain that the ultimate collection will be made. 4. Fixed Assets: Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated debrciation, amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Cost comprises the purchase price and any cost attributable for bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Fixed assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's net selling price and its value in use. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment is recognized by debiting the Statement of Profit & Loss Account and is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. 5. Investments: Investments are classified into long-term and current investments. Long-term investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution, if any, in the value of each long-term investment is made to recognize a decline, other than of a temporary nature. The fair value of a long term investment is ascertained with reference to its market value, the investee's assets and results and the expected cash flows from the investment. Current investments are stated at lower of cost and fair Value. 6. Inventories: Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Raw Material is valued at cost on weightage average basis. Finished goods and work in progress include cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their brsent location and condition. Provision is made for the cost of obsolescence and other anticipated losses, wherever considered necessary. 7. Impairment of Assets:- At the end of each year, the company determines whether a provision should be made for impairment loss on fixed assets by considering the indications that an impairment loss may have occurred in accordance with Accounting Standard 28 (AS-28) "Impairment of Assets''. An impairment loss is charged to the Statement of Profit & Loss in the year in which, an asset is identified as impaired, when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its recoverable value. The impairment loss recognized in prior accounting periods is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount. 8. Provisions & Contingent Liabilities:- Provisions involving substantial degree of estimation in measurement are recognized when there is a brsent obligation as a result of past events and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources i.e. Contingent liabilities arising from Claim, litigation, Assessments, fines, penalties etc. are provided for when it is probable that a liability may be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. 9. Debrciation Accounting:- Till the year ended 31st March 2014, debrciation rates brscribed under Schedule - XIV were treated as minimum rates and the company was not allowed to charge debrciation at lower rates even if such lower rates were justified by the estimated useful life of the asset. Schedule - II to the Companies Act, 2013 brscribes useful lives for fixed assets which, in many cases, are different from lives brscribed under the erstwhile Schedule XIV. Considering the applicability of Schedule - II, the management has re-estimated useful lives and residual values of all its fixed assets. The management believes that debrciation rates currently used fairly reflect its estimate of the useful lives and residual values of fixed assets. Debrciation on fixed assets is provided on straight-line method, over estimated useful lives, as determined by the management. Assets costing less than Rs. 5,000/- are fully debrciated in the year of purchase. For assets purchased/ sold during the year, debrciation is being provided on pro rata basis by the Company. 10. Foreign Currency Transactions: Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the balance sheet date at rates notified by the Foreign Exchange Dealers' Association of India ("FEDAI").

Premia/discounts on foreign exchange swaps, that are used to hedge risks arising from foreign currency assets and liabilities, are amortized over the life of the swap. Income and expenditure in foreign currency are accounted for at exchange rates brvalent on the date of the transaction. In accordance with AS - 11 "The Effects of changes in Foreign Exchange Rates", contingent liabilities in respect of outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts, derivatives, guarantees, endorsements and other obligations are stated at the exchange rates notified by FEDAI corresponding to the balance sheet date. 11. Government Grants:- Grants, in the nature of interest subsidy under the Technology Up-gradation Fund (TUF) Scheme, are accounted for when it is reasonably certain that ultimate collection will be made. Government grants not specifically related to fixed assets are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year of accrual / receipt.

Current tax comprises of the amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961 and the rules framed there under. Deferred income taxes reflects the impact of current year timing differences between taxable income and accounting income for the year and reversal of timing differences of earlier years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of timing differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent there is reasonable certainty that the assets can be realized in future. In case of unabsorbed debrciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws, all deferred tax assets are recognized only if there is virtual certainty of realization of such assets supported by convincing evidence. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and appropriately adjusted to reflect the amount that is reasonably/virtually certain to be realized. 16. Intangible Assets:- Intangible assets are recognized only if it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the assets will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the assets can be measured reliably.

Compensation cost is measured by the excess, if any, of the fair market price of the underlying stock (i.e. the last closing price on the stock exchange on the day brceding the date of grant of stock options) over the exercise price. The exercise price of the Company's stock option is the last closing price on the stock exchange on the day brceding the date of grant of stock options and accordingly there is no compensation cost under the intrinsic value method. 2.
