These financial statements have been brpared to comply in all material aspects with applicable accounting principles in India, the applicable Accounting Standards brscribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act'), the provisions of the Act & Rules (to the extent notified) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent applicable.

All assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company's normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, based on the nature of products and the time between acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The figures are brsented rounded off nearest to a rupee.

1.2 Use of Estimates

The brparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires judgements, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the results areknown/materialised.

1.3 Revenue Recognition

Revenue is primarily derived from sale of iodized salt. Revenues are recognized on accrual basis when the substantial risks and reward of ownership in the goods are transferred to the buyer upon supply of the goods except disputed claims, demands, discounts, rebates etc, which are accounted for on cash basis as per consistent practice. Revenues from Renewal Energy Certificate (REC) are accounted for as and when the same is sold in exchange.

Expenses are accounted for on accrual basis and provision is made for all known losses and liabilities except disputed claims & demands and discounts, rebates etc., which are accounted for on cash basis as per consistent practice.

1.4 Tangible Assets

Fixed assets are stated at their cost of acquisition including all direct cost attributable to the installation less accumulated debrciation comprising of its purchase price, borrowing cost and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of tangible asset are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its brviously assessed standard of performance. Whereas Expenditure and outlays of money on uncompleted plant & machinery, building etc., which are of a capital nature, are shown as capital work-in-progress until such time these projects are completed and are put to use.

1.4 Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortisation/depletion and impairment loss, if any.

1.5 Debrciation

Debrciation is provided on a pro-rata basis on the straight line method at the rates brscribed under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Useful life of the assets has been taken as provided in the said Schedule II to the Companies Act,

2013.

1.6 Impairment

An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of asset exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss is charged to the Profit and Loss Statement in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. The impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount. No such reversal of impairment loss was done during the year in respect of impairment of building done in the brceding years amounting to Rs.178.77 lacs as charged to debrciation. There is no impairment loss charged during the year.

1.7 Inventories

Inventories consisting of raw salt and packing materials are valued on the weighted-average basis and taken at the lower of the cost or net realizable value. Unserviceable raw material, if any, is valued at net realizable value. The cost of manufactured finished goods and work-in-progress includes material cost determined on weighted-average basis including an appropriate portion of allocable overheads. However, it does not include interest and administrative overheads which are indirect in nature. In absence of any other reliable estimate, taking a prudential approach inventory of Renewable energy certificate (REC) have been valued at net realizable value which is the minimum price of such certificate at which the same are sold in exchange.

1.8 Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

Provision is recognised in the accounts when there is a brsent obligation as a result of past event(s) and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. 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. Contingent liabilities are disclosed unless the possibility of outflow of resources is remote. Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements
