India’s industrial sector has always been an ocean of opportunities, but lack of policy support and sluggish demand
prevented the growth of the sector. Despite being a leading player in the Indian industrial sector, BFL had to look at
foreign markets for growth, to satiate its ambitions.
However, we believe that the tide is turning, for good. Government focus on infrastructure investment coupled
with policy measures such as Strategic Partnership, provision of Buy (Indian) in Defence Procurement Policy (DPP)
2016 and mandatory local sourcing will enable Indian companies with proven capabilities to be at the forefront of
addressing the country’s demand requirements.
Bharat Forge has relentlessly focused on diversification and transformation, actively driven by technology and
innovation. This strategic approach has culminated in the Company consistently creating value for its stakeholders
across the spectrum.
Through innovative thinking and processes, we are growing our expertise in manufacturing components and offering
solutions for the automotive industry while expanding into other sectors, from energy and railways to mining and
aerospace. We are strengthening India’s economic backbone, augmenting national capabilities and ensuring a bigger
footprint for the country and for the Company.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Crankshaft Manufacturing
1. ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Global Economy
The world economy grew by 3.1% in 2016, mainly due to recovery in industrial activity and rise in commodity
prices. The US economy strengthened after a weak start to 2016. This up-trend was mainly driven by a strong
labour market and improved household balance sheets, which are translating into higher consumption, increased
manufacturing sales and better investment prospects. In Europe, industrial activity recovered, and economic
expectations have risen in several large developed economies.

GDP growth is expected to exceed the 7% mark
in 2018, absorbing the short-term turmoil in the
aftermath of demonetization. Having traversed this
phase, the country is set to realize demonetization’s
long-term gains in terms of greater tax compliance,
increased digitization and investments in capital
formation. The expected fiscal deficit for 2017–18
is 3.2% of the GDP. This looks achievable, given the
thrust on tax collection as India enters the GST era, as
also greater tax compliance post demonetization.

concerns, risks and/or opportunities The Company is using micro alloyed steel for about 40%
of its production which does not require heat treatment.
Consequently, use of electricity, oil and emulsion used in
heat treatment is reduced.

steels which enable components to be re-designed with
higher power-to-weight ratio. This will be progressively
deployed for new design of vehicle in consultation with

consumption. The Company is working with different
vehicle manufacturers in order to reduce vehicle weight
which in-turn will reduce fuel consumption and ultimately
result in lower emission.
(iii)Light weighing by design re-engineering for steel

forgings
Axle Beam and Crankshaft are two major forgings

which go into manufacture of commercial vehicles. The
Company worked closely with vehicle manufacturers and
has re-designed various components and reduced their
weight by 5 to 15%. This in turn saves steel input and also
reduces fuel consumption of vehicles.

details in respect of resource use (energy, water,
raw material etc.) per unit of product (optional):

Annexure 2 referred to in paragraph 2(f) under the heading “Reporting on Other Legal and Regulatory
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act,
2013 (“the Act”)
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Bharat Forge Limited (“the Company”) as of
March 31, 2017 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended
on that date.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the
internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of
internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by
the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and mainte-
nance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient con-
duct of its business, including adherence to the Company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and
detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation
of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting based
on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing as specified under section 143(10) of
the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with eth-
ical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal
financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in
all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial con-
trols system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over fi-
nancial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing
the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal
control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assess-
ment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opin-
ion on the internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial report-
ing includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable as-
surance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of
collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and
not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future
periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial
reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2017,
based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential
components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Re-
porting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

4 Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial in-
struments).

2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies

a. Current versus non-current classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
4
Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
4 Held primarily for the purpose of trading
4
Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
4
Cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least
twelve months after the reporting period

2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies (Contd.) :

a. Current versus non-current classification (Contd.):
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
4
It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
4 It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
4
It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
4
There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the

b. Foreign currencies
The Company’s financial statements are presented in INR, which is also its functional currency.
Transactions and balance

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company in its functional currency spot rates

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency
spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange difference that arise on settlement of monetary
items or on reporting at each balance sheet date of the Company’s monetary items at the closing rate are
recognized as income or expenses in the period in which they arise except for differences pertaining to Long

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. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a
foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The
gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the
recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items
whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in OCI or statement of profit and loss are also recognised in OCI or
statement of profit and loss, respectively).
Exchange differences
The Company has availed the option available under Ind AS 101 para D13 AA and is continuing the policy
adopted for accounting for exchange difference arising from translation of long term foreign currency
monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2016, pertaining to
long term foreign currency translation difference account (FCMITDA). Hence, such exchange differences are
accounted as below:
a. Exchange differences arising on long-term foreign currency monetary items related to acquisition of
a property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the
asset.

For the year ended March 31, 2017 (Contd.):
2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies (Contd.):

b. Foreign currencies (Contd.):
Exchange differences (Contd.):
b. E
xchange differences arising on other long-term foreign currency monetary items are accumulated in
the FCMITDA through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). The amortization of the balance of FCMITDA
is transferred to the statement of profit and loss over the remaining life of the respective monetary item.
c. All other exchange differences are recognized as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise.
For the purpose of (a) and (b) above, the Company treats a foreign monetary item as “long-term foreign
currency monetary item”, if it has a term of 12 months or more at the date of its origination.
Further the Company does not differentiate between exchange differences arising from foreign currency
borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost and other exchange
difference.
c. Investment in subsidiaries and joint ventures

The Company has accounted for its investment in subsidiaries and joint ventures at cost less accumulated
impairment.
d. Fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments at fair value on initial recognition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on
the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
4
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
4
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use
when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant
that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient
data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the
use of unobservable inputs.

d. Fair value measurement (Contd.):

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised
within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the
fair value measurement as a whole:
4 Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
4 Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
4 Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company
determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation
(based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of
each reporting period.
External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as properties and unquoted financial
assets. Involvement of external valuers is decided upon annually by the management. Selection criteria
include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained.
The management decides, after discussions with the Company’s external valuers, which valuation techniques
and inputs to use for each case.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the
basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as
explained above.
This note summarises accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the
relevant notes.

e. Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and
the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured
at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of
payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. The Company has concluded
that it is the principle in all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in all the revenue
arrangements as it has pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.
Based on the Educational Material on Ind AS 18 issued by the ICAI, the Company has assumed that recovery
of excise duty flows to the Company on its own account. This is for the reason that it is a liability of the
manufacturer which forms part of the cost of production, irrespective of whether the goods are sold or not.
Since the recovery of excise duty flows to the Company on its own account, revenue includes excise duty.


e. Revenue recognition (Contd.):
However, sales tax/ value added tax (VAT) is not received by the Company on its own account. Rather, it is
tax collected on value added to the commodity by the seller on behalf of the government. Accordingly, it is
excluded from revenue.
The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.
Sale of goods
a. Revenue from the domestic sales is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of
the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on delivery of the goods. Revenue from the sale of goods
is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances,
trade discounts and volume rebates.
b. Revenue from export sales are recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the
goods have been passed to the buyer, usually on the basis of dates of bill of lading. Revenue from the
sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and
allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.
Export incentives
Revenue from export incentives are accounted for on export of goods if the entitlements can be estimated
with reasonable assurance and conditions precedent to claim are fulfilled.
Die design and preparation charges

Revenues from die design and preparation charges are recognized as per the terms of the contract as and
when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of dies are transferred to the buyers.
Sale of services
Revenue from sale of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion, and is measured net of
service tax. Stage of completion is measured by reference to proportion of cost incurred till date to the total
estimated contract cost.
Sale of electricity – Windmill

Revenue from sales of electricity is recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership have
been passed to the buyer, usually on transmission of electricity based on the data provided by the electricity
department.
Interest income
For all debt instruments measured either at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive
income, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts
the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where
appropriate, to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset or to the amortised cost of a financial liability.
When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering
all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar
options) but does not consider the expected credit losses. Interest income is included in other income in the
statement of profit and loss.

e. Revenue recognition (Contd.):
Dividends
Dividend income is recognised when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established, which is
generally when shareholders approve the dividend.
f. Government grants
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 or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognized
as income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over the periods necessary to match
them with the related costs, which they are intended to compensate. Where the grant relates to an asset, it
is recognized as deferred income and is allocated to statement of profit and loss over the periods and in the
proportions in which depreciation on those assets is charged.
When loans or similar assistance are provided by governments or related institutions, with an interest rate
below the current applicable market rate, the effect of this favourable interest is regarded as a government
grant. The loan or assistance is initially recognised and measured at fair value and the government grant is
measured as the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan and the proceeds received. The loan
is subsequently measured as per the accounting policy applicable to financial liabilities.
g. Taxes
Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid
to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted
or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates
taxable income.
Current income tax relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit and loss is recognised outside
the statement of profit and loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are
recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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 liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
 W
hen the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
 In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and
interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled
and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future


g. Taxes (Contd.):
Deferred tax (Contd.):
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, except:
 W
hen the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of
the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
 In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates
and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable
that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilized
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 re-assessed 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 (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are
recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current
tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same
taxation authority.
In the situations where the Company is entitled to a tax holiday under the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in
India or tax laws prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions where it operates, no deferred tax (asset or
liability) is recognized in respect of timing differences which reverse during the tax holiday period, to the
extent the Company’s gross total income is subject to the deduction during the tax holiday period. Deferred
tax in respect of timing differences which reverse after the tax holiday period is recognized in the year in
which the timing differences originate. However, the Company restricts recognition of deferred tax assets to
the extent that it has become reasonably certain, that sufficient future taxable income will be available against
which such deferred tax assets can be realized. For recognition of deferred taxes, the timing differences
which originate first are considered to reverse first.


h.
Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal group as held for sale if their carrying amounts will
be recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. Actions required to complete the
sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the decision to
sell will be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the sale expected within one year from the date
of classification.
For these purposes, sale transactions include exchanges of non-current assets for other non-current assets
when the exchange has commercial substance. The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met
only when the assets or disposal Company is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject
only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets (or disposal group), its sale is highly
probable; and it will genuinely be sold, not abandoned. The Company treats sale of the asset or disposal
group to be highly probable when:
4
The appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset (or disposal group)
4
An active programme to locate a buyer and complete the plan has been initiated (if applicable)
4
The asset (or disposal group) is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its
current fair value
4
The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of
classification, and
4
Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be
made or that the plan will be withdrawn
Non-current assets held for sale/for distribution to owners and disposal group are measured at the lower of
their carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell/distribute. Assets and liabilities classified as held for
sale/ distribution are presented separately in the balance sheet.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets once classified as held for sale/ distribution to owners
are not depreciated or amortised.
i. Property, plant and equipment

Since there is no change in the functional currency, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying
value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in its Indian GAAP financial statements as
deemed cost at the transition date, viz., April 1, 2015.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction net of accumulated depreciation
and impairment loss (if any). Internally manufactured property, plant and equipment are capitalised at cost,
including non-cenvatable excise duty, wherever applicable. All significant costs relating to the acquisition and
installation of property, plant and equipment are capitalised. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of
the property, plant and equipment and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition
criteria are met. When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the
Company depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection
is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if
the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in statement of
profit and loss as incurred. The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after
its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. Refer to
note 49 regarding significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions and provisions for further
information.


i. Property, plant and equipment (Contd.):
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 the replaced part is derecognised.
The identified components are depreciated over their useful lives, the remaining asset is depreciated over the
life of the principal asset.
Depreciation for identified components is computed on straight line method based on useful lives, determined
based on internal technical evaluation as follows:
Schedule II life Useful lives estimated by the management

Type of asset
(years) (years)
Building – Factory 30 30
Buildings – Others (including roads) 5 to 60 5 to 60
Plant and machinery 15 10 to 21
Plant and machinery – Windmill 25 19
Plant and machinery – Computers 3 3
Office equipment 5 5
Railway sidings 15 10
Electrical installation 10 10
Factory equipments 10 10
Furniture and fixtures 10 10
Vehicles 8 8
Aircraft 20 6 to 18
Expenditure on power line is amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of six years.
The Company, based on technical assessment made by a technical expert and management estimate,
depreciates certain items of building, plant and equipment over estimated useful lives which are different
from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The management believes that
these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets
are likely to be used.
Freehold land is carried at cost. The Company has taken certain land on lease for a period of 99 years.
Leasehold land is amortised on the straight line method over period of the lease.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising
on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed
at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

j. Investment properties
Since there is no change in the functional currency, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying
value for all of its investment property as recognised in its Indian GAAP financial statements as deemed cost
at the transition date, viz., April 1, 2015.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment loss, if any.
Though the Company measures investment property using cost based measurements, the fair value
measurement of investment property is disclosed in note 4. Fair values are determined based on a periodic
evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer applying valuation model recommended
by recognised valuation standards.
Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently
withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the statement of profit and
loss in the period of derecognition.
k. 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.
Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related
expenditure is reflected in statement of profit and loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the 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 least at the end of
each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future
economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as
appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible
assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of
carrying value of another asset, as provided by another Ind AS.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the
net disposal proceeds and the net carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit
and loss when the asset is derecognised.
The summary of amortization policy applied to the Company’s intangible assets is as below:
Type of asset Life (years)
Computer software 3

k. Intangible assets (Contd.):
Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures on an individual project are recognised
as an intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate:
4
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale
4
Its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset
4 How the asset will generate future economic benefits
4 The availability of resources to complete the asset
4
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less
any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when
development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future
benefit. Amortisation expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure
forms part of carrying value of another asset.
During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
l. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of
the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist
of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost
also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs w.r.t.
borrowings taken on or after April 1, 2016.
m.
Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the
arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to
use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2015, the Company has determined whether the arrangements
contain a lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Company as a lessee
A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Company is classified as a finance lease.


m.
Leases (Contd.):
Company as a lessee (Contd.):
Finance leases are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at the inception date fair value of the leased
property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned
between finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the
remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognised in finance costs in the statement of profit
and loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalized in accor-
dance with the Company’s general policy on the borrowing costs.
A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that
the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of
the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line
basis over the lease term unless the same is in line with inflation.
Company as a lessor
Leases in which the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an
asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line
basis over the term of the relevant lease unless the same is in line with inflation. Initial direct costs incurred
in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and
recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as
revenue in the period in which they are earned.
n. Inventories
Cost of inventories have been computed to include all cost of purchases, cost of conversion and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Raw materials and components, stores and spares and loose tools are valued at lower of cost and net
realizable value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not
written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at
or above cost. Costs are determined on weighted average basis.
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct
materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Cost of finished goods includes excise duty. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods are determined on
a weighted average basis.
Scrap is valued at net realizable value.
Dies are valued at cost or net realisable value. Cost includes direct material and labour and a proportion of
manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

o. Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If
any indication exists, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount
is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.
Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows
that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an
asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its
recoverable amount.
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. These calculations are
corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair
value indicators.
The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are
prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These
budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years. For longer periods, a long-term
growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year. To estimate cash flow
projections beyond periods covered by the most recent budgets/forecasts, the Company extrapolates
cashflow projections in the budget using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, unless an
increasing rate can be justified. In any case, this growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth
rate for the products, industries, or country or countries in which the entity operates, or for the market in
which the asset is used.
Intangible assets under development are tested for impairment annually.
Impairment losses including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
For the assets, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication
that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists,
the Company estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss
is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable
amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of
the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceeds the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such
reversal is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
p. Provisions and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
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. 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 present


p. Provisions and contingent liabilities (Contd.):
obligation that is not recognized 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 recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent
liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made
where there is a possible obligation arising out of past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only
by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of
the Company or a present obligation arising out of a past event where it is either not probable that an outflow
of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate
that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the
provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
q. Post employment and other employee benefits
Provident fund
The Company operates two plans for its employees to provide employee benefits in the nature of provident
fund.
Eligible employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the employee
and the Company make monthly contributions to the provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage
of the covered employee’s salary. The Company contributes a part of the contributions to the “Bharat
Forge Company Limited Staff Provident Fund Trust”. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to the
beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by the government. The Company has an obligation to make
good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
The cost of providing benefits under above mentioned defined benefit plan is determined using the projected
unit credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date, which recognizes
each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each
unit separately to build up the final obligation.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts
included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts
included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet
as an asset/liability with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in
which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
The employees which are not covered under the above scheme, their portion of provident fund is contributed
to the government administered pension fund which is a defined contribution scheme. The Company has no
obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The Company recognizes contribution
payable to the provident fund scheme as expenditure, when an employee renders the related service. If the
contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution
already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution
already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the
balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to,
a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.

q. Post employment and other employee benefits (Contd.):

Gratuity
The Company operates two defined benefits plan for its employees viz. gratuity and special gratuity scheme.
Payment for present liability of future payment of gratuity is being made to approved gratuity funds. The
special gratuity scheme is unfunded. The cost of providing benefits under these plans is determined on the
basis of actuarial valuation at each year end. Separate actuarial valuation is carried out for each plan using
the project unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, excluding amounts included in net interest on
the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest
on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet as asset/liability with a
corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
4
The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
4
The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company
recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit and
loss:
4
Service costs comprising of current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-
routine settlements; and
4 Net interest expense or income
Superannuation
Retirement benefit in the form of superannuation plan is a defined contribution plan. Defined contributions
to insurance Company for employees covered under Superannuation scheme are accounted at the rate of
15% of such employees’ basic salary. The Company recognizes expense toward the contribution paid/ payable
to the defined contribution plan as and when an employee renders the relevant service. If the contribution
already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the balance sheet date, the Company recognise
that excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a
reduction in future payments or cash refund. If the contribution already paid is lower than the contribution
due for service before the balance sheet date, the Company recognises that difference as a liability. The
Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the superannuation fund.
Privilege leave benefits

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized 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.

q. Post employment and other employee benefits (Contd.):
Privilege leave benefits (Contd.):

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 presents 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 presented as non-current liability.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company before the normal
retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The
Company recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Company can no
longer withdraw the offer of these benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes cost for a restructuring that is
within the scope of Ind AS 37 and involves payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to
encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees
expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period
are discounted to present value.
r. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at
fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial
asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by
regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the
date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in three categories:
4 Debt instruments at amortised cost
4 Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
4 Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
Debt instruments at amortised cost

A ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash
flows, and


r. Financial instruments (Contd.):
Financial assets (Contd.):
Debt instruments at amortised cost (Contd.):
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
This category is the most relevant to the Company. After initial measurement, such financial assets are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost
is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an
integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the statement of profit and
loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. This category
generally applies to trade and other receivables.
Debt instrument at FVTOCI

A ‘debt instrument’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:
a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the
financial assets, and
b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting
date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). How-
ever, the group recognizes interest income, impairment losses, reversals and foreign exchange gain or
loss in the statement of profit and loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously
recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to statement of profit and loss. Interest earned whilst
holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
Debt instrument at FVTPL
FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for
categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
In addition, the Company may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost
or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a
measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’). The Company has not
designated any debt instrument as at FVTPL.
Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized
in the statement of profit and loss.
Equity investments

All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. For all equity instruments not held
for trading, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income sub-
sequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.


Equity investments (Contd.):
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the
instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to
statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative
gain or loss within equity.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial
assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when:
4
The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation
4
to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’
arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the
asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of
the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-
through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership.
When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor
transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of
the Company’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The
transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations
that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower
of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company
could be required to repay.
Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:
a) Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities,
deposits, trade receivables and bank balance
b) Financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI
c) Lease receivables under Ind AS 17
d) Trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from
transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 11 and Ind AS 18
The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables
or contract revenue receivables.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather,
it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial
recognition.


Impairment of financial assets (Contd.):
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines
that whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk
has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk
has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument
improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the
entity reverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life
of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events
that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
CL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the
E
contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the
original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider:
4 All contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar
options) over the expected life of the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life
of the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is required to use the remaining
contractual term of the financial instrument
4 Cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the
contractual terms
As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on
portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over
the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting
date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are
analysed.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense
in the statement of profit and loss. This amount is reflected under the head ‘other expenses’ in the statement
of profit and loss.
The balance sheet presentation for various financial instruments is described below:
4 Financial assets measured as at amortised cost, contractual revenue receivables and lease receivables:
ECL is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurement of those assets in the bal-
ance sheet. The allowance reduces the net carrying amount. Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the
Company does not reduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
4 Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI:
Since financial assets are already reflected at fair value, impairment allowance is not further reduced
from its value. Rather, ECL amount is presented as ‘accumulated impairment amount’ in the OCI.
For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Company combines financial instruments on
the basis of shared credit risk characteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designed to
enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timely basis.
The Company does not have any purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) financial assets, i.e., financial
assets which are credit impaired on purchase/ origination.


Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss,
loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge,
as appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and
payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts and derivative financial instruments.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities designated upon initial
recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. This category also includes derivative financial instruments
entered into by the Company that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as
defined by Ind AS 109. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are
designated as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss.
Loans and borrowings

This is the category most relevant to the Company. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and
borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are
recognised in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR
amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs
that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit
and loss.
This category generally applies to borrowings. For more information refer Note 18.
Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contracts that require a payment to be made
to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due
in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially
as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the
guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined
as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.


Financial liabilities (Contd.):
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different
terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is
treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the
respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there
is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a
net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
s. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts, to hedge its foreign
currency risks. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which
a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried
as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to statement of profit
and loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and later reclassified
to statement of profit and loss when the hedge item affects statement of profit and loss or treated as basis
adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset
or non-financial liability.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
4 Fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or
liability or an unrecognised firm commitment
4 Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a
particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or
the foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedge
relationship to which the Company wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and
strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes the Company’s risk management objective
and strategy for undertaking hedge, the hedging/ economic relationship, the hedged item or transaction, the
nature of the risk being hedged, hedge ratio and how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes in the
hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash
flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting
changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have
been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.


s. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (Contd.):
Hedges that meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:
Fair value hedges

The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as
finance costs. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as
part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit and loss as
finance costs.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is
amortised through statement of profit and loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method.
EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases
to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in statement of
profit and loss. When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent
cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as
an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in statement of profit and loss.
Cash flow hedges

Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a
particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the
foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment.
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in OCI in the cash flow hedge
reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
The Company uses forward currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in forecast
transactions and firm commitments. The ineffective portion relating to foreign currency contracts is
recognised in finance costs (Refer note 50).
Amounts recognised as OCI are transferred to statement of profit and loss when the hedged transaction
affects profit or loss, such as when the hedged financial income or financial expense is recognised or when
a forecast sale occurs. When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the
amounts recognised as OCI are transferred to the initial carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability.
If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover (as part
of the hedging strategy), or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI remains separately in
equity until the forecast transaction occurs or the foreign currency firm commitment is met.
t. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits
with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short-term
deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts and cash credit facilities as they are considered
an integral part of the Company’s cash management.

u. Dividend to equity holders of the Company

The Company recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the Company
when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As
per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A
corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.
v. Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources
and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors that
makes strategic decisions.
w. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid
equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they are entitled to participate in
dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a
rights issue, share split, and reverse share split (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of
equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to
equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted
for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Non-recurring fair value measurements

Land classified as held for sale during the reporting period was measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value
less costs to sell at the time of the reclassification. Since the carrying amount was less, there has been no impact in the
statement of profit and loss. The fair value of the land was determined using the sales comparison approach.The key input
used is current prices in an active market for similar properties.This is a level 2 measurement as per the fair value hierarchy.

As at March 31, 2017, March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015, the fair values of the properties are ` 430.31 million, ` 412.02
million and ` 370.53 million respectively. The Company obtains independent valuations for its investment properties at
least annually. The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market for similar properties. Where such
information is not available, the Company considers ready reckoner rates. The fair values of investment properties
have been determined by an independent valuer. The main input used is the ready reckoner rate. All resulting fair
value estimates for investment properties are included in Level 2.
The Company has no restrictions on the realisability of its investment properties and no contractual obligations to
either purchase, construct or develop investment properties or for repairs, maintenance and enhancements.
Freehold land includes 25 acres of land situated at Pune and 24.13 acres of land situated at Satara and 8.40 acres of
land situated at chakan which have been given on lease. Due to certain matters being sub-judice, the Company has not
executed lease deed with related party for one of the said land.

Adjustment to general reserve [Refer note 21(a)] 128.30 -
(a) Adjustment to general reserve includes deferred tax impact relating to revesion of depreciation as per
Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013 in earlier period.
(b) The Company offsets tax assets and liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current
tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income
taxes levied by the same tax authority.
(c) During the year ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 the Company has paid dividend to its shareholders.
This has resulted in payment of Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT) to the taxation authorities. The Company
believes that DDT represents additional payment to taxation authority on behalf of the shareholders. Hence,
DDT paid is charged to equity.

(d) The Company has tax losses which arose due to capital loss of ` 132.90 million (March 31, 2016: ` 17.98 million,
April 1, 2015: ` 17.98 million) that are available for offsetting for eight years against future taxable profits of the
companies under the head capital gains. This loss will expire in eight years from the end of the respective year to
which it pertains. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of the above mentioned loss as they
may not be used to offset taxable profits, they have arisen on account of loss on sale of investment and there are
no other tax planning opportunities or other evidence of recoverability in the near future. If the Company were
able to recognise all unrecognised deferred tax assets, the profit would increase by ` 45.99 million
(March 31, 2016 : ` 6.22 million).

37. Gratuity and other post-employment benefit plans

(a) Gratuity plan
Funded scheme
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan for its employees. The gratuity plan is governed by the
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, every employee who has completed five years of service is
entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the employee’s length of service and
salary at retirement age. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity
on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn) for each completed year of service as per the provisions of the
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The scheme is funded with insurance companies in the form of a qualifying
insurance policy.
Risk exposure and asset-liability matching
Provision of a defined benefit scheme poses certain risks, some of which are detailed hereunder, as companies
take on uncertain long term obligations to make future benefit payments.
1) Liability risks
a) Asset-liability mismatch risk
Risk which arises if there is a mismatch in the duration of the assets relative to the liabilities. By matching
duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the Company is successfully able to neutralize valuation
swings caused by interest rate movements.
b) Discount rate risk

Variations in the discount rate used to compute the present value of the liabilities may seem small, but
in practice can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.
c) Future salary escalation and inflation risk

Since price inflation and salary growth are linked economically, they are combined for disclosure
purposes. Rising salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher
present value of liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management’s discretion
may lead to uncertainties in estimating this increasing risk.
2) Asset risks
All plan assets are maintained in a trust fund managed by a public sector insurer viz. LIC of India and other
insurance companies. LIC has a sovereign guarantee and has been providing consistent and competitive
returns over the years. The Company has opted for a traditional fund wherein all assets are invested primarily
in risk averse markets. The Company has no control over the management of funds but this option provides
a high level of safety for the total corpus. A single account is maintained for both the investment and claim
settlement and hence 100% liquidity is ensured. Also interest rate and inflation risk are taken care of.
The following table summarises the components of net benefit expense recognised in the statement of profit
and loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the gratuity plan.

This represents unmanaged risk and a growing liability. There is an inherent risk here that the Company may default

he management assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalent, trade receivables, derivative instruments, trade
T
payables and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short term
maturities of these instruments.

48. Financial instruments by category (Contd.):

Further the management assessed that the fair value of security deposits and other non current recievables
approximate their carrying amounts largely due to discounting at rates which are an approximation of current
lending rates.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following
methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values: .
(i) Long-term fixed-rate and variable-rate receivables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such
as individual creditworthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account
for the expected credit losses of these receivables.
(ii) The fair values of quoted instruments are based on price quotations at the reporting date. The fair value
of unquoted instruments, loans from banks as well as other non-current financial liabilities is estimated
by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and
remaining maturities. In addition to being sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the forecast cash flows
or the discount rate, the fair value of the equity instruments is also sensitive to a reasonably possible change
in the growth rates. The valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which
the significant unobservable inputs are disclosed in the tables below. Management regularly assesses a range
of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on
the total fair value.
(iii) The fair values of the unquoted equity shares have been estimated using a DCF model. The valuation requires
management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, discount
rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably
assessed and are used in management’s estimate of fair value for these unquoted equity investments.
(iv) The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial
institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Foreign exchange forward contracts are valued using
valuation techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs. The most frequently applied
valuation techniques include forward pricing using present value calculations. The models incorporate various
inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, yield curves of
the respective currencies, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies and forward rate curves
of the underlying. All derivative contracts are fully cash collateralised, thereby eliminating both counterparty
and the Company’s own non-performance risk. As at March 31, 2017 the marked-to-market value of derivative
asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk.
The changes in counterparty credit risk had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for
derivatives designated in hedge relationships and other financial instruments recognised at fair value.
(v) The fair values of the Company’s interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined by using DCF method
using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own
nonperformance risk as at March 31, 2017 was assessed to be insignificant.

(a) Gupta Energy Private Limited (GEPL)
The Company has an investment in equity instrument of GEPL. The same is classified as fair value through
profit and loss. Over the years GEPL has been making consistent losses. The management of the Company
has made attempts to obtain latest information for the purpose of valuation. However, such information is
not availabe as GEPL has not filed the financial statements with MCA since FY 2014-15. In view of the above,
the management believes that the fair value of the investment is Nil as at April 1, 2015.

(b) Bharat Forge Infrastructure Limited (BFIL)

The Company has an investment in preference shares of BFIL. The same is classified as fair value through
profit and loss. These preference shares were completely provided for under previous GAAP due to
permanent diminution in the value of the instrument. The management believes that the fair value of such
preference shares is Nil considering the fact that BFIL is still in the initial phase and the nature of business in
which it operates involves relatively longer gestation period. The said preference shares are redeemable on
June 30, 2017 and the management does not believe that BFIL would be in a position to meet the repayment
obligation.

49. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying
disclosures, including the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates
could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected
in future periods.
Judgements
In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements,
which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
1) Significant judgement is required to apply lease accounting rules under Appendix C to Ind AS 17 determining
whether an arrangement contains a lease. In assessing the applicability to arrangements entered into by the
Company with its various sub-contractors regarding providing of certain services, the Company has exercised
judgment to evaluate the right to use the underlying assets, substance of the transaction including legally

49. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (Contd.):

Judgements (Contd.):
enforced arrangements, and other significant terms and conditions of the arrangement to conclude whether
the arrangements meets the criteria under Appendix C to Ind AS 17. Based on the evaluation, the Company
has concluded that the arrangements do not meet the definition of lease as specified under appendix C to
Ind AS 17.
2) Embedded derivative – The Company has entered into certain hybrid contracts i.e. where an embedded
derivative is a component of a non-derivative host contract, in the nature of financial liability. The Company
has exercised judgement to evaluate if the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are
closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host. Based on the evaluation, the Company
has concluded, that these economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivatives are closely related
to the economic characteristics and risks of the host and thus not separated from the host contract and not
accounted for separately.
Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date,
that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within
the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters
available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future
developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control
of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If
any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the
asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less
costs of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset or CGU exceeds its
recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing the 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 risks specific to the asset.
In determining the fair value less costs to disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by
valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.
Defined benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and other post-employment plans and the present value of the
gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various
assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the
discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its
long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions
are reviewed at each reporting date.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for India. Those mortality tables tend to change
only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on
expected future inflation rates for India.
Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 37.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured
based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the
DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is
not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of
inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the
reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 48 for further disclosures.

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss
rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment
calculation, based on Company’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at
the end of each reporting period.
Operating lease commitments – Company as lessor

The Company has given land on lease to certain entities. The Company has determined, based on an evaluation
of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, such as the lease term not constituting a major part of the
economic life of such land and the fair value of the asset, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of
ownership of these lands and accounts for the contracts as operating leases.
Income tax and deferred tax

Deferred tax assets are not recognised for unused tax losses as it is not probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the
amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable
profits together with future tax planning strategies.
The Company has ` 132.90 million (March 31, 2016: ` 17.98 million; April 1, 2015: ` 17.98 million) of tax losses
carried forward. These losses relate to loss under the head capital gain, which will expire in 8 years and may not be
available to offset taxable income under the same head. On this basis, the Company has determined that it cannot
recognise deferred tax assets on the tax losses carried forward.
If the Company was able to recognise all unrecognised deferred tax assets, profit and equity would have
increased by ` 45.99 million (March 31, 2016 : ` 6.22 million). Further details on taxes are disclosed in
note 21.
Provision for Inventories

Management reviews the inventory age listing on a periodic basis. This review involves comparision of the
carrying value of the aged inventory item with the respective net realisable value. The purpose is to ascertain
whether and allowance is required to be maid in the financial statements for any obsolete and slow-moving items.
Management satisfied that adequate allowance for absolute and slow-moving inventories has been made in the
financial statement.

50. Hedging activities and derivatives

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments
The Company has used foreign exchange forward contracts to manage repayment of some of its foreign currency
denominated borrowings. These foreign exchange forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges
and are entered into for periods consistent with foreign currency exposure of the underlying transactions i.e. the
repayments of foreign currency denominated borrowings.
Cash flow hedges

Foreign currency risk
Foreign exchange forward contracts measured at fair value through OCI are designated as hedging instruments in
cash flow hedges of forecast sales in US Dollar and Euro. These forecast transactions are highly probable.
The foreign exchange forward contract balances vary with the level of expected foreign currency sales and changes
in foreign exchange forward rates.

hedging instruments, is included in OCI. Comparatively, the cash flow hedges of the expected future sales during the
year ended March 31, 2016 were assessed to be highly effective and an unrealised gain of ` 1,694.12 million with a
deferred tax liability of ` 586.30 million was included in OCI in respect of these contracts.
The amount removed from OCI during the year and included in the carrying amount of the hedging items as a basis
adjustment for the year ended March 31, 2017 is detailed in Note 33, totalling ` 872.70 million (net of deferred tax)
(March 31, 2016: ` 2,139.59 million). The amounts retained in OCI at March 31, 2017 are expected to mature and affect
the statement of profit and loss till year ended March 31, 2020.
Reclassifications to profit or loss during the year gains or losses included in OCI are shown in Note 33.

51. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s principal financial liabilities other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade payables and
financial guarantee contracts. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations.
The Company’s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents that
derive directly from its operations. The Company also holds FVTOCI and FVTPL investments and enters into derivative
transactions.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management oversees
the management of these risks. The Company’s senior management is supported by a Finance and Risk Management
Committee (FRMC) that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the
Company. The FRMC provides assurance that the Company’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies
and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company’s
policies and risk objectives. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by experienced
members from the senior management who have the relevant expertise, appropriate skills and supervision. It is the
Company’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The Board of Directors
reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised as below.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes
in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such
as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings,
deposits, investment in mutual funds, FVTOCI investments and derivative financial instruments.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.
The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating
interest rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all
constant and on the basis of hedge designations in place as at March 31, 2017.
The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post-
retirement obligations and provisions.
The following assumptions have been made in calculating the sensitivity analysis:
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks.
This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 including
the effect of hedge accounting
Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates
primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Company generally borrows in Foreign Currency, considering natural hedge it has against its export. Long-term
and short-term foreign currency debt obligations carry floating interest rates.
The Company avails short term debt in foreign currency up to tenor of 9 months, in the nature of export financing for
its working capital requirements. LIBOR or EURIBOR for the said debt obligations is fixed for the entire tenor of the
debt, at the time of availment.

51. Financial risk management objectives and policies (Contd.):

The Company has an option to reset LIBOR or EURIBOR either for 6 Months or 3 months for its long term debt obligations.
To manage its interest rate risk, the Company evaluates the expected benefit from either of the LIBOR resetting options
and accordingly decides. The Company also has an option for its long term debt obligations to enter into interest rate
swaps, in which it agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest rate
amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. However, there were no interest rates
swaps entered in to by the Company during any of the periods reported. At March 31, 2017, the Company’s entire long
term borrowings are at a floating rate of interest (March 31, 2016: 91%).
Interest rate sensitivity

The Company’s total interest cost the year ended March 31, 2017 was ` 727.70 million and for year ended March 31,
2016 was ` 905.06 million. The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest
rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected, with all other variables held constant, the Company’s profit
before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:
Effect on Profit before tax

Particulars Change in basis points and equity

March 31 2017
USD 50 69.18
EUR +50 4.11
EUR* -50 -
March 31 2016
USD 50 82.83
* During the year, EURIBOR was trading in negative zone and Euro borrowings were floored at zero.
The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable
market environment, showing a significantly higher volatility than in prior years.

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes
in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily
to the Company’s export revenue and long term foreign currency borrowings.
The Company manages its foreign currency risk by hedging its forecasted sales up to 4 years to the extent of 25%-65%
on rolling basis and Company keep its long term foreign currency borrowings un-hedged which will be natural hedge
against its un-hedged exports. The Company may hedge its long term borrowing near to the repayment date to avoid
rupee volatility in short term.
When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of being a hedge, the Company negotiates the terms of those
derivatives to match the terms of the hedged exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives cover the
period of exposure from the point the cash flows of the transactions are forecasted up to the point of settlement of the
resulting receivable or payable that is denominated in the foreign currency.

Foreign currency sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EUR exchange rates, with
all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company’s profit before tax is due to changes in the fair value
of un-hedged monetary assets and liabilities. The impact on the Company’s pre-tax equity is due to changes in the
fair value of forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges and net investment hedges. The Company’s
exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

Commodity price risk

Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the on-going purchase
of steel. Due to significant volatility of the price of the steel, the Company has agreed with its customers for pass-
through of increase/decrease in prices of steel. There may be lag effect in case of such pass-through arrangement.
Commodity price sensitivity

As the Company has a back to back pass through arrangements for volatility in raw material prices there is no impact
on the profit and loss and equity of the Company.
Equity price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk in equity investments and classified on the balance sheet as fair value through
profit or loss and through other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity,
the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification and investment in the portfolio is done in accordance with the
limits set by the Board.
At the reporting date, the exposure to unlisted equity securities at fair value was ` 597.50 million. Sensitivity analysis of
these investments have been provided in Note 48.
At the reporting date, the exposure to listed equity securities at fair value was ` 79.50 million. A decrease of 10% on
the NSE market index could have an impact of approximately ` 7.95 million on the OCI or equity attributable to the
Company. An increase of 10% in the value of the listed securities would also impact OCI and equity. These changes
would not have an effect on profit or loss.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables)
and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, investment in mutual funds,
other receivables and deposits, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer
credit risk management. Further, Company’s customers includes marquee OEMs and Tier I companies, having
long standing relationship with the Company. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and
reconciled. At March 31, 2017, receivable from Company’s top 5 customers accounted for approximately 34%
(March 31, 2016: 24%) of all the receivables outstanding. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on
an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogeneous
groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The calculation is based on historical data. The maximum exposure to
credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 12. The Company
does not hold collateral as security except in case of few customers. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk
with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate
in largely independent markets.
Other receivables, deposits with banks and loans given

Credit risk from balances with banks, financial institutions and mutual funds is managed in accordance with the
Company’s approved investment policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties
and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Company’s Board
of Directors on regular basis and the said limits gets revised as and when appropriate. The limits are set to minimise the
concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.
The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2017 and
March 31, 2016 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in the respective notes except for financial guarantees and
derivative financial instruments. The Company’s maximum exposure relating to financial guarantees and financial
derivative instruments is noted in Note 46.
Liquidity risk
Cash flow forecasting is performed by Treasury function. Treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s
liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs. Such forecasting takes
into consideration the compliance with internal cash management. The Company’s treasury invests
surplus cash in marketable securities as per the approved policy, choosing instruments with appropriate
maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned
forecasts. At the reporting date, the Company held mutual funds of ` 11,238.45 million (March 31, 2016:
` 7,633.18 million; April 1, 2015: ` 4,564.63 million) and other liquid assets of ` 2,747.87 million (March 31, 2016:
` 3,697.54 million; April 1, 2015: ` 5,892.74 million) that are expected to readily generate cash inflows for managing
liquidity risk.
As per the Company’s policy, there should not be concentration of repayment of loans in a particular financial year. In
case of such concentration of repayment, the Company evaluates the option of refinancing entire or part of repayments
for extended maturity. The Company assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and
concluded it to be low. The Company has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding and debt maturing within
12 months can be rolled over with existing lenders and the Company is also maintaining surplus funds with short term
liquidity for future repayment of loans.

52. Capital management

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and
all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company’s
capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and
the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the
dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital
using a net debt equity ratio, which is net debt divided by equity. The Company’s policy is to keep the net debt equity
ratio below 1.00. The Company includes within its borrowings net debt and interest bearing loans less cash and cash
equivalents.

Net debt /equity Ratio 0.24 0.43 0.52
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure
that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure
requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and
borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in
the current period.

N
March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.

53. First time adoption

hese financial statements, for the year ended March 31, 2017, are the first the Company has prepared in accordance
T
with Ind AS. For periods up to and including the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company prepared its financial
statements in accordance with accounting standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read
together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (‘Indian GAAP’).
ccordingly, the Company has prepared financial statements which comply with Ind AS applicable for periods ending on
A
March 31, 2017, together with the comparative period data as at and for the year ended March 31, 2016, as described
in the summary of significant accounting policies. In preparing these financial statements, the Company’s opening
balance sheet was prepared as at April 1, 2015, the Company’s date of transition to Ind AS. This note explains the
principal adjustments made by the Company in restating its Indian GAAP financial statements, including the balance
sheet as at April 1,2015 and the financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2016.
Exceptions applied
he Company has applied all the mandatory exceptions in accordance with Ind AS 101. Following are the exceptions
T
with significant impact:
1) Estimates
The estimates at April 1, 2015 and at March 31, 2016 are consistent with those made for the same dates in
accordance with Indian GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any differences in accounting policies) apart from the
following items where application of Indian GAAP did not require estimation:
-FVTOCI – unquoted and quoted equity shares
-FVTPL – debt securities
-Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model
The estimates used by the Company to present these amounts in accordance with Ind AS reflect conditions at April
1, 2015, the date of transition to Ind AS and as of March 31, 2016.
2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
The Company has classified financial assets on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of
transition to Ind AS.
3) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
The Company has elected to apply the derecognition requirements in Ind AS 109 prospectively for transactions
occurring on or after April 1, 2015. However, for certain financial assets and financial liabilities derecognition
requirements in Ind AS 109 were applied retrospectively where information needed was obtained at the time of
initially accounting for derecognition.
4) Hedge accounting
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign
currency risks respectively. Under Indian GAAP, there is no mandatory standard that deals comprehensively with
hedge accounting, which has resulted in the adoption of varying practices. The Company has designated various
economic hedges and applied economic hedge accounting principles to avoid profit or loss mismatch. All the
hedges designated under Indian GAAP are of types which qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with Ind AS
109 also. Moreover, the Company, before the date of transition to Ind AS, has designated a transaction as hedge
and also meets all the conditions for hedge accounting in Ind AS 109. Consequently, the Company continues to
apply hedge accounting after the date of transition to Ind AS.

53. First time adoption (Contd.):

Exemptions applied
Ind AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements
under Ind AS. The Company has applied the following exemptions:
1) Deemed cost for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per
the Indian GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.
2) Embedded lease
Appendix C to Ind AS 17 requires an entity to assess whether a contract or arrangement contains a lease. In
accordance with Ind AS 17, this assessment should be carried out at the inception of the contract or arrangement.
However, the Company has used Ind AS 101 exemption and assessed all arrangements based for embedded
leases based on conditions in place as at the date of transition.
3) Investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates
The Company has elected either the Indian GAAP carrying amount or fair value at the date of transition as deemed
cost for its investment in each subsidiary, joint venture or associate.
4) Long Term Foreign Currency Monetary Items
The Company has elected to continue the policy adopted for accounting of exchange differences arising from
translation of long-term foreign currency monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the period
ending immediately before April 1, 2016 as per the previous GAAP.
5) Government loans
The Company has elected to apply the requirements of Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments and Ind AS 20 Accounting
for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, prospectively to government loans existing at
the date of transition to Ind AS and has not recognised the corresponding benefit of the government loan at a
below-market rate of interest as a government grant.
54. Standards issued but not yet effective

In March 2017, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendments)
Rules, 2017, notifying amendments to Ind AS 7, ‘Statement of cash flows’ and Ind AS 102, ‘Share-based payment.’ These
amendments are in accordance with the recent amendments made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
to IAS 7, ‘Statement of cash flows’ and IFRS 2, ‘Share-based payment,’ respectively. The amendments are applicable to
the Company from April 1, 2017.
Amendment to Ind AS 7:
he amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to
T
evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-
cash changes, suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the balance sheet
for liabilities arising from financing activities, to meet the disclosure requirement.
he Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and the effect on the financial statements is being
T
evaluated.
he amendment to Ind AS 102 provides specific guidance to measurement of cash-settled awards, modification of
T
cash-settled awards and awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes.
It clarifies that the fair value of cash-settled awards is determined on a basis consistent with that used for equity-
settled awards. Market-based performance conditions and non-vesting conditions are reflected in the ‘fair values’,
but non-market performance conditions and service vesting conditions are reflected in the estimate of the number of
awards expected to vest. Also, the amendment clarifies that if the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based
payment transaction are modified with the result that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment transaction,
the transaction is accounted for as such from the date of the modification. Further, the amendment requires the
award that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes to be treated as equitysettled in its entirety.
The cash payment to the tax authority is treated as if it was part of an equity settlement.
ince the Company does not have cash settled awards or awards with net settlement features, this amendment does
S
not have any effect on the financial statements of the Company.

Footnotes to the reconciliation of equity as at April 1, 2015 & March 31, 2016 and Statement of profit
and loss for the year ended March 31, 2016
1) Financial assets
Under Indian GAAP, the Company accounted for long term investments in unquoted and quoted equity shares
as investment measured at cost less provision for other than temporary diminution in the value of investments.
Under Ind AS, the Company has designated such investments as FVTOCI investments. Ind AS requires FVTOCI
investments to be measured at fair value. At the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments
at fair value and Indian GAAP carrying amount has been recognised as a separate component of equity, in the
FVTOCI reserve, net of related deferred taxes.
Under Indian GAAP, the Company accounted for long term investments in debt securities as investment measured
at cost less provision for other than temporary diminution in the value of investments. Under Ind AS, the Company
has designated certain investments as FVTPL debt investments. Ind AS requires FVTPL to be measured at fair
value. At the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments at fair value and amortised cost as
at the date of transition has been recognised in other equity, net of related deferred taxes.
Under Indian GAAP, the Company accounted for mutual funds as investment measured at lower of cost or NRV.
Under Ind AS, the Company classified these mutual funds as FVTPL investments. Ind AS requires such investments
to be measured at fair value. At the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments at fair value
and cost as at the date of transition has been recognised in other equity, net of related deferred taxes.
2) Trade receivables
Under Indian GAAP, the Company has created provision for impairment of receivables which consists only in
respect of specific amount for probable losses. Under Ind AS, impairment allowance has been determined
based on Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model. Due to ECL model, the Company impaired its trade receivable by
` 32.70 million (net of related deferred tax) on April 1, 2015 which has been eliminated against other equity.
3) Derivative instruments
The Company has taken certain forward foreign exchange contracts which were designated as hedging instruments
under Indian GAAP and have been designated as at the date of transition to Ind AS as hedging instrument in cash
flow hedges for expected future sales for which the Company has firm commitments or expected sales that are
highly probable. The corresponding adjustment has been recognised as a separate component of equity, in the
cash flow hedge reserve. On the date of transition, cash flow hedge reserve was debited by ` 1,771.01 million
on April 1, 2015 and net movement of ` 2,238.51 million (net of related deferred tax) during the year ended on
March 31, 2016 was recognized in OCI and subsequently taken to cash flow hedge reserve. Further, the Company
has recognized Credit Value Adjustments (‘CVA’)/Debit Value Adjustments (‘DVA’) as part of fair valuation of these
instruments and the same has been adjusted in the other equity on the date of transition to Ind AS and in the
statement of profit and loss subsequently.


and loss for the year ended March 31, 2016 (Contd.):
4) Provisions
Under Indian GAAP, proposed dividends including dividend distribution tax (DDT) are recognised as a liability
in the period to which they relate, irrespective of when they are declared. Under Ind AS, a proposed dividend is
recognised as a liability in the period in which it is declared by the company (usually when approved by shareholders
in a general meeting) or paid.
In case of the Company, the declaration of dividend occurs after the period end. Therefore, the liability of
` 1,260.84 million for the year ended on March 31, 2015 recorded for dividend including DDT theron has been
derecognised against other equity on April 1, 2015. The proposed dividend and DDT thereon for the year ended
on March 31, 2016 of ` 140.09 million recognized under Indian GAAP was reduced from other payables and with
a corresponding impact in the other equity.
Proposed dividend including DDT liability amounting to ` 1,260.84 million which was derecognised as on the
transition date, has been recognised in other equity during the year ended March 31, 2016 as declared and paid.
5) Defined benefit liabilities

Both under Indian GAAP and Ind AS, the Company recognised costs related to its post-employment defined
benefit plan on an actuarial basis. Under Indian GAAP, the entire cost, including actuarial gains and losses, are
charged to the statement of profit and loss. Under Ind AS, remeasurements [comprising of actuarial gains and
losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability
and the return on plan assets excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability] are
recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to other equity through OCI.
Thus the employee benefit cost is reduced by ` 16.58 million and remeasurement gains / losses on defined benefit
plans has been recognized in the OCI net of related deferred tax.
6) Recognition of Investment Property

The investment properties are reclassified from Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and presented separately
amounting to ` 2.89 million (WDV as on April 1, 2015) as on date of transition to Ind AS by reclassifying from PPE.
The depreciation of ` Nil have been provided for the year ended March 31, 2016.
7) Bill of exchange discounted

Under IGAAP, trade receivables derecognised by way of bills of exchange have been shown as contingent liability
since there is recourse clause. Under Ind AS, the trade receivables have been restated with corresponding
recognition of short term borrowings of ` 8,487.48 million as on March 31, 2016 and ` 10,497.25 million as on
April 1, 2015.
8) Revenue
Under Indian GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented excluding excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue
from sale of products is presented inclusive of excise duty. Excise duty paid is presented on the face of the
statement of profit and loss as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and total
expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 by ` 1,916.66 million. There is no impact on total equity and profits.
Under the Indian GAAP certain expenses in the nature of freight and other sales related expenses were netted off
against sales. Under Ind AS such expenses have been reclassified to other expenses so as to measure revenue at
fair value of consideration received or receivable. This change has no impact on the profits and other equity for
the year.

9) Deferred tax
Indian GAAP requires deferred tax accounting using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences
between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Ind AS 12 requires entities to account for deferred
taxes using the 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. This has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new
temporary differences which was not required under Indian GAAP.
In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. According to the accounting
policies, the Company has to account for such differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation
to the underlying transaction either in other equity or a separate component of equity.
10) Government Loan

The Company has a below-market rate government loan of ` 6.08 million outstanding as at the date of transition
to Ind AS. Such loan was recognized at book value under Indian GAAP. The Company has elected to apply the
exemption pertaining to government grant whereby the provisions of Ind AS 109, ‘Financial Instruments’, and Ind
AS 20, ‘Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance’ shall be applied prospectively
to such loan from the date of transition to Ind AS. Accordingly, Indian GAAP carrying amount of the loan at the date
of transition to Ind AS has been continued as the carrying amount of the loan in the opening Ind AS Balance Sheet.
11) Borrowings
The Company recognized the transaction costs pertaining to the borrowings on a straight line basis over the
term of the loan under Indian GAAP. The unamortized portion of such cost was recognized as part of ‘prepaid
expense’ which amounted to ` 265.59 million on the date of transition to Ind AS. As per Ind AS 109, borrowings
are measured at amortized cost and hence, unamortized portion of transaction costs has been adjusted against
the amount of borrowings and not shown separately as part of assets.
12) Dies and spares

The Company developes in house dies which are used in the production of various auto and non-auto components
and such dies are considered a part of inventory under Indian GAAP. Also, the Company accounted for certain
spares which are capable of being used during more than one accounting period or which can be only specifically
in combination with another fixed assets as part of inventories under Indian GAAP. Under Ind AS, any asset which
satisfies the criteria of Ind AS 16 needs to be accounted as a part of property, plant and equipment. Accordingly,
the Company has done an assessment of the relevant dies and spares and reclassified the same from inventory to
property, plant and equipment wherever such dies and spares satisfied the criteria of Ind AS 16. Depreciation on
such reclassified items have been computed retrospectively and the net amount is considered for reclassification
purposes while the balance impact is adjusted in other equity.
13) Investment in subsidiaries and joint ventures

The Company has availed the option to value investment in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures at deemed
cost. The deemed cost for this purpose can be either its fair value at the entity’s date of transition to Ind AS in its
separate financial statements or previous GAAP carrying amount at the transition date. The Company has decided
to use fair value as deemed cost for certain investments and for balance investments previous GAAP carrying
amount is used.

14) Discounting of financial assets

Under Indian GAAP, the Company accounted for Security Deposits and other receivable balances as Loans and
Advances measured at cost. Under Ind AS, such balances are classified and measured at amortized cost using
effective interest rate method. At the date of transition to Ind AS, the difference between amortized cost and the
Indian GAAP carrying amount has been recognised in other equity (net of related deferred tax). The resulting
impact of ` 102.29 million for April 1, 2015 and ` 81.63 million for March 31, 2016 have been reclassified to
prepaid expenses and a corresponding decrease of ` 24.40 million in total comprehensive income for the year
ended March 31, 2016.
15) Foreign Currency Monetary Items Translation Difference Account (FCMITDA)

The Company has availed the option to continue the policy adopted for accounting for exchange difference arising
from translation of long term foreign currency monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2016. Accordingly, the exchange differences arising on long term foreign currency monetary
items (which do not pertain to acquisition of a property, plant and equipment) are accumulated in FCMITDA
reserve through OCI.
16) Impact on cash flow

The transiation from Previous GAAP to Ind AS has no material impact on the statement of cash flow except bank
overdraft which has been considered as part of cash and cash equivalents.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Members of Bharat Forge Limited

Report on the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated Ind AS financial statements of Bharat Forge Limited (hereinafter

the consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss including other comprehensive income, the consolidated Cash Flow
Statement, the consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “the consolidated Ind AS financial
statements”).
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated Ind AS financial
statements in terms of the requirement of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) that give a true and fair view of the
consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance including other comprehensive income, consolidated
cash flows and consolidated statement of changes in equity of the Group including its Associates and Joint Ventures in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under
Section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015, as amended. The respective
Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates and joint ventures are responsible
for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of
the assets of the Group and of its associates and joint ventures and for preventing and detecting frauds and other
irregularities; the selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that
are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,
that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to
the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the consolidated
Ind AS financial statements by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated Ind AS financial statements based on our audit. While
conducting the audit, we have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards
and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules
made thereunder. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing, issued by the Institute of
Chartered Accountants of India, as specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Those Standards require that we comply
with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks
of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those
risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Holding Company’s preparation of
the consolidated Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Holding Company’s Board of Directors, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence
obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in sub-

opinion on the consolidated Ind AS financial statements.

Annexure 1 referred to in paragraph (g) under the heading “Reporting on Other Legal and Regulatory
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of Bharat Forge Limited as of and for the year
ended March 31, 2017, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Bharat Forge Limited
(hereinafter referred to as the “Holding Company”) and its subsidiary companies, its associate companies and joint
ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.
Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The respective Board of Directors of the of the Holding Company, its subsidiary companies, its associate companies and
joint ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal
financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Holding Company
considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial
Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities
include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating
effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the respective
company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy
and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required
under the Act.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based
on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls
Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing, both, issued by Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India, and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an
audit of internal financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal
financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in
all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls
system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial
reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk
that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control
based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms
of their reports referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion on the internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial

reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only
in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of
collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and
not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future
periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Holding Company, its subsidiary companies, its associate companies and joint ventures, which are
companies incorporated in India, have, maintained in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls
system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively
as at March 31, 2017, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Holding Company
considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial
Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
Other Matters
Our report under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial
controls over financial reporting of the Holding Company, insofar as it relates to these six subsidiary companies, two
associate companies and three joint ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding
reports of the auditors of such subsidiary, associate and jointly controlled companies incorporated in India.

NOTES FORMING PART OF consolidated FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 Corporate information
The consolidated financial statements comprise financial statements of Bharat Forge Limited (“the Company”)
and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Group) for the year ended March 31, 2017. Bharat Forge Limited (“the
Company”) is a public Company domiciled in India. Its shares are listed on two stock exchanges in India. The
Group is engaged in the manufacturing and selling of forged components. The Group caters to both domestic and
international markets. The registered office of the Company is located at Mundhwa, Pune. The Company’s CIN is
L25209PN1961PLC012046. The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue in accordance with a
resolution of the directors on May 24, 2017.
2 Significant accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation
These consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended thereafter.
For all periods up to and including the year ended March 31, 2016, the Group prepared its consolidated financial
statements in accordance with the accounting standards notified under the section 133 of the Companies Act
2013, read together with paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (Indian GAAP). These consolidated
financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2017 are the first that the Group has prepared in accordance
with Ind AS. Refer to note 60 and 62 for information on how the Group adopted Ind AS.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following
assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value:
4 Derivative financial instruments;
Certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial
4
instruments).
In addition, the carrying values of recognised assets and liabilities designated as hedged items in fair value hedges
that would otherwise be carried at amortised cost are adjusted to record changes in the fair values attributable to
the risks that are being hedged in effective hedge relationships.
2.2 Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as
at March 31, 2017. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its
involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the
4
investee)
4 Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
4 The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption
and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all
relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

2.2 Basis of consolidation (Contd.):
4 The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
4 Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
4 The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights
The size of the Group’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of the holdings of the other
4
voting rights holders
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are
changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group
obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities,
income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated
financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other
events in similar circumstances. If a member of the Group uses accounting policies other than those adopted
in the consolidated financial statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate
adjustments are made to that Group member’s financial statements in preparing the consolidated financial
statements to ensure conformity with the Group’s accounting policies.
The consolidated financial statements in respect of overseas subsidiaries/associate companies (other than Bharat
Forge International Limited) are drawn for the year ended December 31, 2016, whereas the financial statements of
the Company are drawn for the year ended March 31, 2017. The effect of significant transactions and other events
that occur between January 1, 2017 and March 31, 2017 are considered in the consolidated financial statements
if it is material in nature. The financial statements of Bharat Forge International Limited have been prepared for
the year ended March 31, 2017. The financial statements of Indian subsidiaries/associates/joint controlled entities
have been drawn for the year ended March 31, 2017.
Consolidation procedure:
(a) Combine like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its
subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets
and liabilities recognised in the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.
(b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion
of equity of each subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.
(c) Eliminate in full intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to
transactions between entities of the Group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are
recognised in assets, such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate
an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements. Ind AS12 Income Taxes
applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intra-
group transactions.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of
the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests
having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries
to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and
liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are
eliminated in full on consolidation.

NOTES FORMING PART OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.2 Basis of consolidation (Contd.):

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity
transaction. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
4 Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary
4 Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests
4 Derecognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity
4 Recognises the fair value of the consideration received
4 Recognises the fair value of any investment retained
4 Recognises any surplus or deficit in the statement of profit and loss
Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to the statement of profit and
4
loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the
related assets or liabilities
2.3 Summary of significant accounting policies

a. Business combinations
In accordance with Ind AS 101 provisions related to first time adoption, the Group has elected to apply Ind
AS accounting for business combinations prospectively from April 1, 2015. As such, Indian GAAP balances
relating to business combinations entered into before that date, including goodwill, have been carried forward
with minimal adjustment (please refer note 38 and 60). Business combinations are accounted for using the
acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred at
acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business
combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value
or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition related costs are expensed
as incurred.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their
acquisition date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing
present obligation and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits is not probable. However, the following assets and liabilities acquired
in a business combination are measured at the basis indicated below:
Deferred tax assets or liabilities, and the assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements
4
are recognised and measured in accordance with Ind AS 12 Income Tax and Ind AS 19 Employee Benefits
respectively.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate
classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent
conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by
the acquiree.

2.3 Summary of significant accounting policies (Contd.) :
a. Business combinations (Contd.):
Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability that is a financial instrument and within the
scope of Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, is measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised
in the statement of profit and loss. If the contingent consideration is not within the scope of Ind AS 109, it is
measured in accordance with the appropriate Ind AS. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is
not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and subsequent its settlement is accounted for within equity.
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and
the amount recognised for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate
consideration transferred, the Group reassesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired
and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised
at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired
over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in OCI and accumulated in equity
as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the entity recognises the gain
directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose
of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to
each of the Group’s cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of
whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.
A cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more
frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash
generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying
amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the
carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised in the statement of
profit and loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
Where goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit
is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of
the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed in these circumstances is
measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit
retained.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which
the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is
incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted through goodwill during the measurement period, or
additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances
that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.
These adjustments are called as measurement period adjustments. The measurement period does not exceed
one year from the acquisition date.
b. Investment in associates and joint ventures

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to
participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee, but is not control or joint control over
those policies.


b. Investment in associates and joint ventures (Contd.):
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement
have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of
an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of
the parties sharing control.
The considerations made in determining whether significant influence or joint control are similar to those
necessary to determine control over the subsidiaries.
The Group’s investments in its associate and joint venture are accounted for using the equity method. Under
the equity method, the investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying
amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate
or joint venture since the acquisition date. Goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the
carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment individually.
The statement of profit and loss reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the associate or joint
venture. Any change in OCI of those investees is presented as part of the Group’s OCI. In addition, when there
has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the associate or joint venture, the Group recognises
its share of any changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses
resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent
of the interest in the associate or joint venture.
If an entity’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or
joint venture (which includes any long term interest that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment
in the associate or joint venture), the entity discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional
losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made
payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. If the associate or joint venture subsequently reports
profits, the entity resumes recognising its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the
share of losses not recognised.
The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of an associate and a joint venture is shown on the face of
The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the
Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment
loss on its investment in its associate or joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether
there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If there is such
evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount
of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss as ‘Share of profit/(loss) of
an associate and a joint venture’ in the statement of profit and loss.
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint control over the joint venture, the Group measures
and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the
associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the retained
investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

c. Current versus non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An
asset is treated as current when it is:
4 Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
4 Held primarily for the purpose of trading
4 Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
Cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least
4
twelve months after the reporting period
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
4 It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle
4 It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
4 It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
4
reporting period
The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash
and cash equivalents. The Group has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
d.
Foreign currencies
The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in INR, which is also the parent’s functional
currency. For each entity the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial
statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The Group uses the direct method of
consolidation and on disposal of a foreign operation the gain or loss that is reclassified to the statement of
profit and loss reflects the amount that arises from using this method.
Transactions and balance

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group in its functional currency spot rates at the
date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency
spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange difference that arise on settlement of monetary items
or on reporting at each balance sheet date of the Company’s monetary items at the closing rate are recognized
as income or expenses in the period in which they arise except for differences pertaining to Long Term Foreign
Currency Monetary Items as mentioned subsequently.


d. Foreign currencies (Contd.):
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. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or
loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition
of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value
gain or loss is recognised in OCI or the statement of profit and loss are also recognised in OCI or the statement
of profit and loss, respectively).
Exchange differences
The Group has availed the option available under Ind AS 101 para D13 AA and is continuing the policy adopted
for accounting for exchange difference arising from translation of long term foreign currency monetary items
recognised in the financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2016, pertaining to long term foreign
currency translation difference account (FCMITDA). Hence, such exchange differences are accounted as below:
a) Exchange differences arising on long-term foreign currency monetary items related to acquisition of
property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.
b) Exchange differences arising on other long-term foreign currency monetary items are accumulated in the
FCMITDA through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). The amortisation of the balance of FCMITDA is
transferred to the statement of profit and loss over the remaining life of the respective monetary item
c) All other exchange differences are recognized as income or as expenses in the period in which they arise.
For the purpose of (a) and (b) above, the Group treats a foreign monetary item as “long-term foreign currency
monetary item”, if it has a term of 12 months or more at the date of its origination.
Further, the Group does not differentiate between exchange differences arising from foreign currency
borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost and other exchange difference.
Group companies
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into INR at the rate of exchange
prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit and loss are translated at exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transactions. For practical reasons, the Group uses an average rate to translate income and
expense items, if the average rate approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. The
exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognised in OCI. On disposal of a foreign
operation, the component of OCI relating to that particular foreign operation is recognised in the statement of
profit and loss.
Any goodwill arising in the acquisition/ business combination of a foreign operation on or after April 1, 2015
and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising on the acquisition are
treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange at the
reporting date.


d. Foreign currencies (Contd.):
Any goodwill or fair value adjustments arising in business combinations/ acquisitions, which occurred before
the date of transition to Ind AS (April 1, 2015), are treated as assets and liabilities of the entity rather than as
assets and liabilities of the foreign operation. Therefore, those assets and liabilities are non-monetary items
already expressed in the functional currency of the parent and no further translation differences occur.
Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero at the date of
transition, viz., April 1, 2015. Gain or loss on a subsequent disposal of any foreign operation excludes translation
differences that arose before the date of transition but includes only translation differences arising after the
transition date.
e. Fair value measurement

The Group measures financial instruments at fair value on initial recognition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on
the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
4 In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
4 In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset
or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant
that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data
are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use
of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised
within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair
value measurement as a whole:
4 Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
4
Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
4 Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group
determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation
(based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each
reporting period.

e. Fair value measurement (Contd.):
External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as properties and unquoted financial
assets. Involvement of external valuers is decided upon annually by the management. Selection criteria
include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained.
The management decides, after discussions with the Group’s external valuers, which valuation techniques and
inputs to use for each case.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the
basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as
explained above.
This note summarises accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the
relevant notes.

f. Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and
the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured
at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of
payment and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. The Group has concluded that it
is the principal in all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in all the revenue arrangements
as it has pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.
Based on the Educational Material on Ind AS 18 issued by the ICAI, the Group has assumed that recovery of
excise duty flows to the Group on its own account. This is for the reason that it is a liability of the manufacturer
which forms part of the cost of production, irrespective of whether the goods are sold or not. Since the recovery
of excise duty flows to the Group on its own account, revenue includes excise duty.
However, sales tax/ value added tax (VAT) is not received by the Group on its own account. Rather, it is tax
collected on value added to the commodity by the seller on behalf of the government. Accordingly, it is excluded
from revenue.
The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.

f. Revenue recognition (Contd.):
Sale of goods
a. Revenue from the domestic sales is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of
the goods have passed to the buyer, usually on delivery of the goods. Revenue from the sale of goods is
measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade
discounts and volume rebates.
b. Revenue from export sales are recognised when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the
goods have been passed to the buyer, usually on the basis of dates of bill of lading. Revenue from the
sale of goods is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and
allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates.
Export incentives
Revenue from export incentives are accounted for on export of goods if the entitlements can be estimated
with reasonable assurance and conditions precedent to claim are fulfilled.
Die design and preparation charges

Revenue from die design and preparation charges is recognized as per the terms of the contract as and when
the significant risks and rewards of ownership of dies is transferred to the buyers.
Sale of services
Revenue from sale of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion, and is measured net of
service tax. Stage of completion is measured by reference to proportion of cost incurred till date to the total
estimated contract cost.
Sale of electricity – Windmill

Revenue from sales of electricity is recognized when all the significant risks and rewards of ownership have
been passed to the buyer, usually on transmission of electricity based on the data provided by the electricity
department.
Interest income
For all debt instruments measured either at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive
income, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate (EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts
the estimated future cash payments or receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter
period, where appropriate, to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset or to the amortised cost of a
financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group estimates the expected cash flows by
considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and
similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses. Interest income is included in finance income
Dividends
Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally
when shareholders approve the dividend.
Project revenue
Contract prices are either fixed or subject to price escalation clauses. Revenues are recognised on a percentage
completion method measured by segmented portions of the contract, i.e. “Contract Milestones” achieved.
Contract Milestones, in respect of certain contracts, are considered on the basis of physical dispatch which

f. Revenue recognition (Contd.):
is generally representative of the significant portion of the work done as per the terms and conditions of the
contract. The relevant cost is recognised in the financial statements in the year of recognition of revenues.
Recognition of profit is adjusted to ensure that it does not exceed the estimated overall contract margin.
Contract revenue earned in excess of billing has been included under “Other Current Assets” and billing in
excess of contract revenue has been included under “Other Current Liabilities” in the Balance Sheet. If it is
expected that a contract will make a loss, the estimated loss would be provided for in the books of account.
Such losses are based on technical assessments.
If it is expected that a contract will make a loss, the estimated loss is provided for in the books of account. Such
losses are based on technical assessments and on management’s analysis of the risks and expenses on a case
to case basis.
Amounts due in respect of price escalation claims including those linked to published indices and/or variation
in contract work are recognised as revenue only if the contract allows for such claims or variations and /or
there is evidence that the customer has accepted it and it is probable that these will result in revenue and are
capable of being reliably measured.
Liquidated damages/penalties are provided for, based on management’s assessment of the estimated liability,
as per contractual terms, technical evaluation, past experience and/or acceptance.
g. Government grants
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 or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognized
as income on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss over the periods necessary to match
them with the related costs, which they are intended to compensate. Where the grant relates to an asset, it
is recognized as deferred income and is allocated to statement of profit and loss over the periods and in the
proportions in which depreciation on those assets is charged.
When loans or similar assistance are provided by governments or related institutions, with an interest rate
below the current applicable market rate, the effect of this favourable interest is regarded as a government
grant. The loan or assistance is initially recognised and measured at fair value and the government grant is
measured as the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan and the proceeds received. The loan
is subsequently measured as per the accounting policy applicable to financial liabilities.
h. Taxes
Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to
the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or
substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable
income.

h. Taxes (Contd.):
Current income tax relating to items recognised outside the statement of profit and loss is recognised outside
the statement of profit and loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items
are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 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 liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

4 When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in
a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the
accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

4 In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in associates and interests in joint
ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable
that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future
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 except:
4 When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial
recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the
transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
4 In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in associates and interests in
joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary
differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the
temporary differences can be utilized
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 (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are
recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.


h. Taxes (Contd.):
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current
tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same
taxation authority.
In the situations where the Group is entitled to a tax holiday under the Income-tax Act, 1961 enacted in India
or tax laws prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions where it operates, no deferred tax (asset or liability)
is recognized in respect of timing differences which reverse during the tax holiday period, to the extent the
Group’s gross total income is subject to the deduction during the tax holiday period. Deferred tax in respect
of timing differences which reverse after the tax holiday period is recognized in the year in which the timing
differences originate. However, the Group restricts recognition of deferred tax assets to the extent that it has
become reasonably certain that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred
tax assets can be realized. For recognition of deferred taxes, the timing differences which originate first are
considered to reverse first.
i. Non-current assets held for sale/ distribution to owners and discontinued operations
The Group classifies non-current assets and disposal Group’s as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be
recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. Actions required to complete the
sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale/ distribution will be made or that the
decision to sell will be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the sale expected within one year from
the date of classification.
For these purposes, sale transactions include exchanges of non-current assets for other non-current assets
when the exchange has commercial substance. The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met
only when the assets or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to
terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets (or disposal group’s), its sale is highly probable;
and it will genuinely be sold, not abandoned. The Group treats sale of the asset or disposal group to be highly
probable when:
4 The appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset (or disposal group),
4 An active programme to locate a buyer and complete the plan has been initiated (if applicable),
4
The asset (or disposal group) is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to
its current fair value,
4
The sale is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of
classification , and
4
Actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be
made or that the plan will be withdrawn.
Non-current assets held for sale/for distribution to owners and disposal group’s are measured at the lower
of their carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale/
distribution are presented separately in the balance sheet.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets once classified as held for sale to owners are not
depreciated or amortised.

i. Non-current assets held for sale/ distribution to owners and discontinued operations
(Contd.):
A disposal group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been
disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and:
4 Represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations,
4
Is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of
operations
Or
4 Is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale
Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single
amount as profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit and loss.
Additional disclosures are provided in Note 33. All other notes to the consolidated financial statements mainly
include amounts for continuing operations, unless otherwise mentioned.
j. Property, plant and equipment

Since there is no change in the functional currency, the Group has elected to continue with the carrying value
for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in its Indian GAAP financial statements as deemed
cost at the transition date, viz., April 1, 2015.
Property, plant and equipment, are stated at cost of acquisition or construction net of accumulated depreciation
and impairment loss (if any). Internally manufactured property, plant and equipment are capitalised, including
non-cenvatable excise duty, wherever applicable. All significant costs relating to the acquisition and installation
of property, plant and equipment/ investment property are capitalised. Such cost includes the cost of replacing
part of the property, plant and equipment and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the
recognition criteria are met. When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at
intervals, the Group depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major
inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a
replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in
the statement of profit and loss as incurred. The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of
an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are
met. Refer to note 36 regarding significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions and provisions
for further information .
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 Group and the
cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.
The identified components are depreciated over their useful lives, the remaining asset is depreciated over the
life of the principal asset.


j. Property, plant and equipment (Contd.):
Depreciation for identified components is computed on straight line method based on useful lives, determined
based on internal technical evaluation as follows:
Type of Assets Useful life estimated by

management (years)
Building – Factory 8 – 50
Buildings – Others 5 – 60
Plant and machinery 10 – 21
Plant and machinery – Windmill 19
Plant and machinery – continuous processing plant 18
Computers 3
Office equipment 3 – 11
Railway sidings 10
Electrical installation 10
Factory equipments 2 – 10
Furniture and fixtures 10
Vehicles 3–8
Aircraft 6 – 18
Expenditure on power line is amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of six years.
The Company and its Indian subsidiaries, based on technical assessment made by technical expert and
management estimate, depreciates certain items of building, plant and equipment over estimated useful lives
which are different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The management
believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which
the assets are likely to be used.
The Group has taken certain land on lease for a period of 99 years. Leasehold land is amortised on the straight
line method over period of the lease. Freehold land is carried at cost.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising
on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed
at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
k. Investment property
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment loss, if any.


k. Investment property (Contd.):
Though the Group measures investment property using cost based measurements, the fair value
measurement of investment property is disclosed in note 4. Fair values are determined based on a periodic
evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer applying valuation model recommended
by recognised valuation standards.
Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently
withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the statement of profit and
loss in the period of derecognition.
l. 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.
Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related
expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the 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 least at the end of
each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future
economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as
appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible
assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of
carrying value of another asset, as provided by another Ind AS.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the
net disposal proceeds and the net carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit
and loss when the asset is derecognised.
The summary of amortisation policy applied to the Group’s intangible assets is as below:
Type of Asset Useful life estimated by management (years)

Software 3–5
Development costs 10
Patents 10
Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures on an individual project are recognised
as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate:
4 The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale
4 Its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset
4 How the asset will generate future economic benefits
4 The availability of resources to complete the asset
4 The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development

l. Intangible assets (Contd.):
Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less
any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when
development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future
benefit. Amortisation expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms
part of carrying value of another asset.
During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
m. Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of
the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of
interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also
includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs w.r.t. borrowing
taken on or after April 1, 2016.
n. Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the
arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use
the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2015, the Group has determined whether the arrangements
contain a lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Group as a lessee
A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Company is classified as a finance lease.
Finance leases are capitalised at the commencement of the lease at the inception date fair value of the leased
property or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. Lease payments are apportioned
between finance charges and reduction of the lease liability so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on
the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are recognised in finance costs in the statement of
profit and loss, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalized in
accordance with the Company’s general policy on the borrowing costs.
A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that
the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the
estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line
basis over the lease term unless the same is in line with inflation.


n. Leases (Contd.):
Group as a lessor
Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset
are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis
over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease
are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as
rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
o. Inventories
Cost of inventories have been computed to include all cost of purchases, cost of conversion and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Raw materials and components, stores and spares and loose tools are valued at lower of cost and net realizable
value. However, materials and other items held for use in the production of inventories are not written down
below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.
Costs are determined on weighted average basis.
Work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes direct
materials and labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Cost of finished goods includes excise duty. Cost of work-in-progress and finished goods are determined on a
weighted average basis.
Dies are valued at cost or net realisable value. Cost includes direct material and labour and a proportion of
manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity.
Scrap is valued at net realizable value.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
p. Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If
any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the
asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s
(CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual
asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets
or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is
considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
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. These calculations are
corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair
value indicators.
The Group bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared
separately for each of the Group’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast
calculations generally cover a period of five years. For longer periods, a long-term growth rate is calculated
and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year. To estimate cash flow projections beyond periods
covered by the most recent budgets/forecasts, the Group extrapolates cash flow projections in the budget
using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, unless an increasing rate can be justified. In
any case, this growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the products, industries, or
country or countries in which the entity operates, or for the market in which the asset is used.


p. Impairment of non-financial assets (Contd.):
Intangible assets under development are tested for impairment annually.
Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the
For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an
indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication
exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment
loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable
amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of
the asset does not exceeds its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such
reversal is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as at March 31 and when circumstances indicate that the carrying
value may be impaired.
Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU (or Group of CGUs)
to which the goodwill relates. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its carrying amount, an
impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill cannot be reversed in future periods.
q. Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
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. 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 Group or a present obligation
that is not recognized 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
recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognize a contingent liability but
discloses its existence in the consolidated financial statements. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made
where there is a possible obligation arising out of past event, the existence of which will be confirmed by
the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of
the Group or a present obligation arising out of past event where it is either not probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate
that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the
provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
r. Post employment and other employee benefits

Provident fund
The Company and some of its Indian subsidiaries operate two plans for its employees to provide employee
benefits in the nature of provident fund.


r. Post employment and other employee benefits (Contd.):
Eligible employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the employee
and the Company make monthly contributions to the provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the
covered employee’s salary. The Company contributes a part of the contributions to the “Bharat Forge Company
Limited Staff Provident Fund Trust”. The rate at which the annual interest is payable to the beneficiaries by the
trust is being administered by the government. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if
any, between the return from the investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
The cost of providing benefits under abovementioned defined benefit plan is determined using the projected
unit credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date, which recognizes
each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit
separately to build up the final obligation.
with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
The employees of the Company and some of its Indian subsidiaries which are not covered under the above
scheme, their portion of provident fund is contributed to the government administered pension fund which
is a defined contribution scheme. The Company and its Indian subsidiaries have no obligation, other than the
contribution payable to the provident fund. The Company and its Indian subsidiaries recognises contribution
payable to the provident fund scheme as expenditure, when an employee renders the related service. If the
contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution
already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution
already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the
balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for
example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.
Gratuity
The Company and some of its Indian subsidiaries operate two defined benefits plan for its employees viz.
gratuity and special gratuity scheme. Payment for present liability of future payment of gratuity is being made
to approved gratuity funds. The special gratuity scheme is unfunded. The cost of providing benefits under
these plans is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation at each year end. Separate actuarial valuation is
carried out for each plan using the project unit credit method.
with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Past service costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
4 The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
4 The date that the Group recognises related restructuring costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Group

recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the consolidated
statement of profit and loss:
Service costs comprising of current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and
4
non-routine settlements; and
4 Net interest expense or income


r. Post employment and other employee benefits (Contd.):
Superannuation
Retirement benefit in the form of superannuation plan is a defined contribution plan. Defined contributions to
Life Insurance Corporation for employees covered under Superannuation scheme are accounted at the rate
of 15% of such employees’ basic salary. The Group recognizes expense toward the contribution paid/ payable
to the defined contribution plan as and when an employee renders the relevant service. If the contribution
already paid exceeds the contribution due for service before the balance sheet date, the Group recognise that
excess as an asset (prepaid expense) to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in
future payments or cash refund. If the contribution already paid is lower than the contribution due for service
before the balance sheet date, the Group recognises that difference excess as a liability. The Group has no
obligation, other than the contribution payable to the superannuation fund.
Privilege leave benefits

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term
employee benefit. The Group 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 Group 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 Group
presents 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 Group has the unconditional
legal and contractual right to defer the settlement for a period beyond 12 months, the same is presented as
non-current liability.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement
date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognizes
termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer
of these benefits; and (b) when the entity recognizes cost for a restructuring that is within the scope of Ind
AS 37 and involves payment of termination benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary
redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept
the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to
present value.
Other long-term employee benefits

In case of certain overseas subsidiaries, there are long term employee benefits in the nature of pension plans,
jubilee scheme and early retirement scheme. Long-term employee benefits are defined benefit obligations
and are provided for on the basis of an actuarial valuation. Separate actuarial valuation is carried out for each
plan using the project unit credit method.
Actuarial gains and losses for all defined benefit plans are recognized in full in the period in which they occur
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.

s. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at
fair value through profit and loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial
asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by
regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the
date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in three categories:
4 Debt instruments at amortised cost
4 Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
4 Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
Debt instruments at amortised cost
A ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash
4
flows, and
Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
4
principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
This category is the most relevant to the Group. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by
taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the
EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from
impairment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to trade and
other receivables.
Debt instrument at FVTOCI

A ‘debt instrument’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:
The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the
4
financial assets, and
4 The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date
at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI). However, the
Group recognizes interest income, impairment losses & reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the
statement of profit and loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in
OCI is reclassified from the equity to the statement of profit and loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI
debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.


s. Financial instruments (Contd.):
Debt instrument at FVTPL

FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for
categorization as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
In addition, the Group may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortised cost or FVTOCI
criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement
or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’). The Group has not designated any debt
instrument as at FVTPL.
Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in
Equity investments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. For all equity instruments not
held for trading, the Group may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income
subsequent changes in the fair value. The Group makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Group decides to classify an equity instrument as FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument,
excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to the statement
of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain or loss
within equity.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets)
is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Group’s balance sheet) when:
4 The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation
4
to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’
arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset,
or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset,
but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through
arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has
neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control
of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing
involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the
associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.


Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower
of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could
be required to repay.

In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Group applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:
a) Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities,
deposits, trade receivables and bank balance
b) Lease receivables under Ind AS 17
c) Trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from
transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 11 and Ind AS 18
d) Financial assets that are measured at FVTOCI
The Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables or
contract revenue receivables.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Group to track changes in credit risk. Rather,
it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial
recognition.
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Group determines whether
there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased
significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased
significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such
that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to
recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.
Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a
financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that
are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.
ECL is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the
contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the
original EIR. When estimating the cash flows, an entity is required to consider:
All contractual terms of the financial instrument (including prepayment, extension, call and similar
4
options) over the expected life of the financial instrument. However, in rare cases when the expected life
of the financial instrument cannot be estimated reliably, then the entity is required to use the remaining
contractual term of the financial instrument
Cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual
4
terms
As a practical expedient, the Group uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on
portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates
over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every
reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking
estimates are analysed.


ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in
the statement of profit and loss. This amount is reflected under the head ‘other expenses’ in the statement of
profit and loss.
The balance sheet presentation for various financial instruments is described below:
Financial assets measured as at amortised cost, contractual revenue receivables and lease receivables: ECL
4
is presented as an allowance, i.e., as an integral part of the measurement of those assets in the balance
sheet. The allowance reduces the net carrying amount. Until the asset meets write-off criteria, the Group
does not reduce impairment allowance from the gross carrying amount.
4 Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI:
Since financial assets are already reflected at fair value, impairment allowance is not further reduced from
its value. Rather, ECL amount is presented as ‘accumulated impairment amount’ in the OCI.
For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Group combines financial instruments on
the basis of shared credit risk characteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designed
to enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timely basis.
The Group does not have any purchased or originated credit-impaired (POCI) financial assets, i.e., financial
assets which are credit impaired on purchase/ origination.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss,
loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as
appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables,
net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts, financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss include financial liabilities designated upon initial
recognition as at fair value through profit and loss. This category also includes derivative financial instruments
entered into by the Group that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by
Ind AS 109. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated
as effective hedging instruments. Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss.


Loans and borrowings

This is the category most relevant to the Group. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the
statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation
process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs
that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit
and loss.
This category generally applies to borrowings. For more information refer Note 18.
Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Group are those contracts that require a payment to be made
to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due
in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially
as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the
guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss determined as per
impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different
terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is
treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.
The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Embedded derivatives
An embedded derivative is a component of a hybrid (combined) instrument that also includes a non-derivative
host contract – with the effect that some of the cash flows of the combined instrument vary in a way similar to
a stand-alone derivative. An embedded derivative causes some or all of the cash flows that otherwise would
be required by the contract to be modified according to a specified interest rate, financial instrument price,
commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, credit rating or credit index, or other variable,
provided in the case of a non-financial variable that the variable is not specific to a party to the contract.
Reassessment only occurs if there is either a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies
the cash flows that would otherwise be required or a reclassification of a financial asset out of the fair value
through profit and loss.
If the hybrid contract contains a host that is a financial asset within the scope of Ind AS 109, the Group does
not separate embedded derivatives. Rather, it applies the classification requirements contained in Ind AS 109
to the entire hybrid contract. Derivatives embedded in all other host contracts are accounted for as separate
derivatives and recorded at fair value if their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those
of the host contracts and the host contracts are not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit
or loss. These embedded derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the
statement of profit and loss, unless designated as effective hedging instruments.
Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated balance
sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention
to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.


t. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting
Initial recognition and subsequent measurement
The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps and
forward commodity contracts, to hedge its foreign currency risks, interest rate risks and commodity price risks,
respectively. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as
financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to the statement
of profit and loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and later
reclassified to the statement of profit and loss when the hedge item affects the statement of profit and loss or
treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-
financial asset or non-financial liability.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
Fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or liability
4
or an unrecognised firm commitment
4
particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or
the foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment.
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship
to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for
undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes the Group’s risk management objective and strategy for
undertaking hedge, the hedging/ economic relationship, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the
risk being hedged, hedge ratio and how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes in the hedging
instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows
attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes
in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been
highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.
Hedges that meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:
Fair value hedges

The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit and loss as finance
costs. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as part of the
carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit and loss as finance costs.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised
through the statement of profit and loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. EIR
amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be
adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in the statement
of profit and loss. When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent
cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an
asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in the statement of profit and loss.


t. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting (Contd.):
Cash flow hedges
particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the
foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment.
The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in OCI in the cash flow hedge
reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
The Group uses forward currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in forecast
transactions and firm commitments, as well as forward commodity contracts for its exposure to volatility in the
commodity prices. The ineffective portion relating to foreign currency contracts is recognised in finance costs.
Refer to note 54 for more details.
Amounts recognised as OCI are transferred to the statement of profit and loss when the hedged transaction
affects profit or loss, such as when the hedged financial income or financial expense is recognised or when
a forecast sale occurs. When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the
amounts recognised as OCI are transferred to the initial carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability.
If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover (as part
of the hedging strategy), or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge no longer meets the
criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI remains separately in
equity until the forecast transaction occurs or the foreign currency firm commitment is met.
u. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits
with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short-term
deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the
Group’s cash management.
v. Dividend to equity holders of the Group
The Group recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the parent when the
distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Group. As per the corporate
laws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is
recognised directly in equity.
w. Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and
assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors that makes
strategic decisions.
x. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid
equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they are entitled to participate in
dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a
rights issue, share split, and reverse share split (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of
equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to
equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted
for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

The Board of Directors of the Company decided to transfer and assign the lease hold rights in land located at Jejuri which
was originally acquired for a joint venture for railway projects. The Company has identified an interested party for the
transfer, and has entered into a memorandum of understanding with them. The sale is expected to be completed during
the financial year 2017-18.
*Amortisation has been provided for till the date of classification as held for sale.
Non-recurring fair value measurements
Land classified as held for sale during the reporing period was measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair
value less costs to sell at the time of the reclassification. Since the carrying amount was less, there has been no impact in
the statement of profit and loss. The fair value of the land was determined using the sales comparison approach.The key
input used is current prices in an active market for similar properties. This is a level 2 measurement as per the fair value
hierarchy.

The Group's investment properties consist of three parcels of land situated at Mundhwa, Satara and Chakan. Management
determined that the investment properties consist of only one class of assets − free hold land − based on the nature,
characteristics and risks of each property.
As at March 31, 2017, March 31, 2016 and April 1, 2015, the fair values of the properties are ` 430.31 million, ` 412.02
million and ` 370.53 million respectively. The Group obtains independent valuations for its investment properties at
least annually. The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market for similar properties. Where such
information is not available, the Group considers ready reckoner rates. The fair values of investment properties have
been determined by an independent valuer. The main input used is the reckoner rate. All resulting fair value estimates
for investment properties are included in Level 2.
The Group has no restrictions on the realisability of its investment properties and no contractual obligations to either
purchase, construct or develop investment properties or for repairs, maintenance and enhancements.
Freehold land includes 25 acres of land situated at Pune and 24.13 acres of land situated at Satara, and 8.40 acres of land
situated at Chakan which have been given on lease. Due to certain matters being sub judice, the Group has not executed
lease deed with related party for one of the said land.

5 Intangible assets (Contd.):
‘The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of intangible assets as recognised in financial statements as
per Indian GAAP and regard those values as deemed costs on the date of transition and has carried forward gross block and
accumulated depreciation only for disclosure purposes.
Impairment of Goodwill:
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and no impairment charge was identified for year ended March 31,2017
and March 31, 2016.
The Group has identified the Company Mécanique Générale Langroise (MGL) as the CGU. The goodwill acquired
through business combination has been entirely allocated to CGU ‘MGL’. The carrying amount of goodwill and brand as
at March 31, 2017 is ` 428.18 million (March 31, 2016 : ` 443.72 million).
The recoverable amount of the CGU, is determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from
financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the
cash flow projections for impairment testing during the current year is 10.5% (March 31, 2016 : 8.6%). The growth rate
used to extrapolate the cash flows of the unit beyond the five-year period is 1.5% (March 31, 2016 : 1.5%). This growth
rate exceeds the industry average growth rate by 0.70%. The management of MGL believes this growth rate is justified.
As a result of the analysis, management did not identify impairment for this CGU.
Key assumptions used for value in use calculations
Weighted Average Cost of Capital % (WACC) befor tax (Discount rate) : 10.5% (March 31, 2016 : 8.6%)
Terminal growth rate : 1.5% (March 31, 2016 : 1.5%)
The discount rate is calculated as follows : WACC = Cost of equity x (1- gearing) + Cost of debt x (1- tax rate) x gearing.
The terminal growth rate used is the growth rate of the peer group and is in line with long term inflation rate.
We have performed sensitivity analysis around the base assumptions and have concluded that no reasonable changes
in key assumptions would cause the recoverable amount of the CGU to be less than the carrying value.

(a) Adjustment to general reserve includes deferred tax impact relating to revision of depreciation as per Schedule II
of Companies Act, 2013 and other adjustments in earlier periods.
- The Group offsets tax assets and liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax
assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes
levied by the same tax authority.
- During the year ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 the Group has paid dividend to its shareholders.
This has resulted in payment of DDT to the taxation authorities. The Group believes that DDT represents
additional payment to taxation authority on behalf of the shareholders. Hence, DDT paid is charged to equity.
- The Group has tax losses which arose due to capital loss and carried forward business losses in India of
` 358.76 million (March 31, 2016: ` 262.27 million, April 1, 2015: ` 296.60 million) that are available for offsetting
for eight years against future taxable profits of the Company under the head capital gains. This loss will expire
in eight years from the end of the respective year to which it pertains.
- The Group has tax losses which arose due to carried forward business losses in the USA of ` 1,753.98 million
(March 31, 2016: ` 1,685.92 million, April 1, 2015: ` 1,569.48 million) that are available for offsetting for eight
years against future taxable profits under relevant heads of income of the companies in which the losses
arose. This loss will expire in year 2036.
- The Group has tax losses which arose due to carried forward business losses in Sweden of ` 1,045.36 million
arose. This loss can be forward indfinitely.
- Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of the above mentioned loss as they may not be used
to offset taxable profits, they have arisen on account of loss on sale of investment and there are no other
tax planning opportunities or other evidence of recoverability in the near future. If the Group was able to
recognise all unrecognised deferred tax assets, the profit would increase by ` 1,092 million (March 31, 2016:
` 1,029 million)
Certain subsidiaries of the group have undistributed earnings of ` 1,330.89 million (March 31, 2016: ` 770.04
million) which, if paid out as dividends, would be subject to tax in the hands of the recipient. An assessable
temporary difference exists, but no deferred tax liability has been recognised as the parent entity is able to
control the timing of distributions from this subsidiary and is not expected to distribute these profits in the
foreseeable future.

36. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying
disclosures, including the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates
could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected
in future periods
Judgements
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements,
which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
1) Significant judgement is required to apply lease accounting rules under appendix C to Ind AS 17 Determining
whether an arrangement contains a lease. In assessing the applicability to arrangements entered into by
the Group with its various sub-contractors regarding providing of certain services, the Group has exercised
judgment to evaluate the right to use the underlying assets, substance of the transaction including legally
enforced arrangements, and other significant terms and conditions of the arrangement to conclude whether
the arrangements meets the criteria under Appendix C to Ind AS 17. Based on the evaluation, the Group
has concluded that the arrangements do not meet the definition of lease as specified under appendix C to
Ind AS 17.
2) Embedded derivative – The Group has entered into certain hybrid contracts i.e. where an embedded
derivative is a component of a non-derivative host contract, in the nature of financial liability. The Group has
exercised judgement to evaluate if the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative are
closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host. Based on the evaluation, the Group has
concluded, that these economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivatives are closely related to
the economic characteristics and risks of the host and thus not separated from the host contract and not
accounted for separately.
3) Discontinued operations - The Group has sold its stake in joint ventures i.e. David Brown Bharat Forge Gear
Systems India Limited and ALSTOM Bharat Forge Power Private Limited in financial year 2015-16 and 2016-
17 respectively. The Group has exercised judgement and assessed that both of these joint ventures are
components of the Group that represents a separate major line of business. Accordingly, the same have
been presented as discontinued operations since the criteria as per Ind AS 105 is satisfied.
Bharat Forge America (“BFA”) is subsidiary of the Company which was operational from 2005 to 2013. From
the financial year ended 2013, there had been no operations in this entity. Since then operations had been
discontinued, all the fixed assets were sold and asset and external liabilities were settled but the Company
still held some current assets. Under Indian GAAP, disclosure was made for these discontinuing operations
and the remaining assets were disclosed as “assets held for sale” for FY 12-13 to FY 15-16. In the FY 16-17,
BFA has acquired a fully operational Company Walker Forge Tennesse LLC (now known as Bharat Forge
PMT Technologie LLC, USA). The Group has made an Ind AS 105 assessment for Bharat Forge America and
concluded that it will not satisfy the criteria of “Discontinued Operations” or “Assets held for sale” on the date of
transition or subsequently and accordingly, the same are considered as part of continuing operations.
4) Control assessment for Joint ventures - In assessing the power over investee for control evaluation, the Group
has exercised judgement in considering certain rights given to the co-venturer in a joint venture arrangement
as either substantive rights or protective rights. The Group has evaluated if the rights are designed to protect
the interests of their holder without giving that party power over the investee to which those rights relate in
which case, it is considered as protective right not considered in the control assessment for joint ventures.
Also, in case of all the joint arrangements, the Group has interest in the net assets of the joint arrangements
and accordingly the same is considered as joint ventures.


Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date,
that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within
the next financial year, are described below. The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters
available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future
developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control
of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Impairment of non-financial assets

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, The Group estimates the asset’s
recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs
of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset or CGU exceeds its
recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing the 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 risks specific to the asset.
In determining the fair value less costs to disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by
valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.
Defined benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and other post-employment plans and the present value of the
gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various
assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the
discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its
long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions
are reviewed at each reporting date.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables based on the country where the entity operates.
Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases
and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates of the respective counrty.
Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 43.
Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured
based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the
DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is
not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of
inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the
reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 55 for further disclosures.

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected
loss rates. The Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment
calculation, based on Group’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the
end of each reporting period.


Operating lease commitments – Group as lessor
he Group has given land on lease to certain entities. The Group has determined, based on an evaluation of the
T
terms and conditions of the arrangements, such as the lease term not constituting a major part of the economic
life of such land and the fair value of the asset, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of
these lands and accounts for the contracts as operating leases.
Income tax and deferred tax

Deferred tax assets are not recognised for unused tax losses as it is not probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the
amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable
profits together with future tax planning strategies.

4 The Group has tax losses which arose due to capital loss and carried forward business losses in India of
` 358.76 million (March 31, 2016: ` 262.27 million, April 1, 2015: ` 296.60 million) that are available for
offsetting for eight years against future taxable profits of the Company under the head capital gains. This loss
will expire in eight years from the end of the respective year to which it pertains.
4 The Group has tax losses which arose due to carried forward business losses in the USA of ` 1,753.98 million
arose. This loss will expire in year 2036.
4 T
he Group has tax losses which arose due to carried forward business losses in Sweden of ` 1,045.36 million
arose. This loss can be carried forward indefinitely.

If the Group was able to recognise all unrecognised deferred tax assets, profit and equity would have increased by
` 1,092.00 million (March 31, 2016 : ` 1,029.00 million). Further details on taxes are disclosed in note 21.
Provision for Inventories

Management reviews the inventory age listing on a periodic basis. This review involves comparison of the carrying
value of the aged inventory items with the respective net realizable value. The purpose is to ascertain whether an
allowance is required to be made in the financial statements for any obsolete and slow-moving items. Management
is satisfied that adequate allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventories has been made in the financial
statements.

38. Business combinations and acquisition of non-controlling interests

Acquisitions during the year ended 31 March 2017
Acquisition of Bharat Forge PMT Technologie LLC and Bharat Forge Tennessee Inc., USA
n December 1, 2016, pursuant to a block deal the Group acquired 100 % stake of 2 entities of Walker Forge Group
O
Inc. (“seller”). 100% of the voting shares in Bharat Forge Tennessee Inc. (BFT) (formerly known as “PMT Holdings LLC”)
and 100% of the voting shares of Bharat Forge PMT Technologie LLC (BF PMT) (formerly known as “Walker Forge
Tennessee LLC”) including shares held through BFT. Both the aquirees are non-listed LLCs based in USA and specialising
in manufacture and sale of steel forgings to customers in the automotive, construction, and truck industries. The
acquisition of Walker Forge Tennessee LLC fits well with Group’s strategy to build an asset platform that offers value to
its customers, partners, and collaborators. The acquisition of Walker Forge Tennessee creates a strategic manufacturing
footprint of the Group in North America to leverage the existing customer relationships while simultaneously enabling
the Group to address new end market segments and broaden the product portfolio.
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed

The fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of BF PMT and BFT as at the date of acquisition were:
In ` Million
Fair value recognised on acquisition
Assets
Property, plant and equipment 507.92
Cash and cash equivalents 0.13
Trade recievables 191.92
Inventories 258.21
Prepaid expenses 0.26
Liabilities
Trade payables 78.29
Total identifiable net assets at fair value 880.15
Goodwill arising on acquisition -
Purchase consideration transferred 880.15
The gross amount and fair value of the trade receivables is ` 191.92 million. None of the trade receivables is credit impaired
and it is expected that the full contractual amounts can be collected.
The fair value measurements are based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market. The fair value
estimate is based on:
1) An assumed discount rate of 14%
2) A terminal value, calculated based on long-term sustainable growth rates for the industry ranging from 2% to 4%, which
has been used to determine income for the future years
3) A reinvestment ratio of 60% of earnings
From the date of acquisition, BF PMT has contributed `132 million of revenue and ` (10) million to the loss before tax from
continuing operations of the Group. If the combination had taken place at the beginning of the year, revenue from continuing
operations would have been more by ` 1,882 million and the profit before tax from continuing operations for the Group would
have been lower by ` (336) million.

39. Merger of BF Infrastructure Ventures Limited (‘BFIVL’) and BF Infrastructure Limited (‘BFIL’)
Pursuant to the Honourable High Court order dated at July 8, 2016, BFIL acquired BFIVL for synergies of operations
and cost savings. The Group has opted to follow accounting treatment as stated in the High Court order.
However,as per Ind AS the same will not be construed as a business combination since the aquired components
do not meet the definition of business. Accordingly, with effect from the appointed date i.e. April 1, 2015, BFIL
has accounted for this merger using pooling of interest method under Accounting Standard 14 for “Accounting
for Amalgamations”. As per this method, the assets and liabilities are recorded by BFIL at the carrying values (as
appearing in the books of BFIVL). The identity of the reserves will be preserved in the financial statements of BFIL.
Thus, the consolidated financial statements have been restated from April 1, 2015 to give effect to the above
transaction. There is no impact on the consolidated financial statements due to merger since it is a common
control transaction.

43. Gratuity and other post-employment benefit plans

Holding Company
(a) Gratuity plan
Funded scheme
he Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan for its employees. The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment
T
of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, every employee who has completed five years of service is entitled to specific
benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the employee’s length of service and salary at retirement age. Every
employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn)
for each completed year of service as per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The scheme is funded
with insurance companies in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.
Risk exposure and asset liability matching
rovision of a defined benefit scheme poses certain risks, some of which are detailed hereunder, as companies take on
P
uncertain long term obligations to make future benefit payments.
1) Liability Risks
a) Asset-Liability Mismatch risk-
duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the company is successfully able to neutralize valuation swings
b) Discount Rate Risk

practise can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.
c) Future Salary Escalation and Inflation Risk

Rising salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher present
value of liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management’s discretion may lead to
uncertainities in estimating this increasing risk.

2) Asset Risks
All plan assets are maintained in a trust fund managed by a public sector insurer viz; LIC of India and other
insurance companies. LIC has a sovereign guarantee and has been providing consistent and competitive returns
over the years. The company has opted for a traditional fund wherein all assets are invested primarily in risk
averse markets. The company has no control over the management of funds but this option provides a high level
of safety for the total corpus. A single account is maintained for both the investment and claim settlement and
hence 100% liquidity is ensured. Also interest rate and inflation risk are taken care of.
The following table summarises the components of net benefit expense recognised in the Statement of profit and loss
and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the gratuity plan.
The principal assumptions used in determining gratuity for the Company’s plan is shown below:

Weighted average duration of the plan (based on discounted cash flows using mortality, withdrawal and interest rate)

(b) Special gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit special gratuity plan. Under the gratuity plan, every eligible employee who has
completed ten years of service gets an additional gratuity on departure which will be salary of five months based
on last drawn basic salary. The scheme is unfunded.

b.) Discount rate risk
c.) Future salary escalation and inflation risk
liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management’s discretion may lead to uncertainties
2) Asset risks
This represents unmanaged risk and a growing liability. There is an inherent risk here that the Company may
default on paying the benefits in adverse circumstances. Funding the plan removes volatility in the company’s
financials and also helps the Company to manage the defined benefit risk through increased return on the funds
made available for the plan.

and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the gratuity plan.

(C) Provident fund

In accordance with the law, all employees of the Company are entitled to receive benefits under the provident
fund. The Company operates two plans for its employees to provide employee benefits in the nature of provident
fund, viz. defined contribution plan and defined benefit plan.
Under the defined contribution plan, provident fund is contributed to the government administered provident
fund. The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution to the provident fund.
Under the defined benefit plan, the Company contributes to the “Bharat Forge Company Limited Staff Provident
Fund Trust”. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the
investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
The details of the defined benefit plan based on actuarial valuation report are as follows:
1) Liability risks:
a) Asset-liability mismatch risk-
Risk which arises if there is a mis match in the duration of the assets relative to the liabilities. By matching
duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the company is successful able to neutralize valuation swings
caused by interest rate movements. Hence companies are encouraged to adopt asset-liability management.
b) Discount rate risk-
Variations in the discount rate used to compute the present value of the liabilities may seem small, but in practice
can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.


c) Future salary escalation and inflation risk -
Since price inflation and salary growth are linked economically, they are combined for disclosure purposes. Rising
salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher present value of liabilities
especially unexpected salary increases provided at management’s discretion may lead to uncertainties in estimating
this increasing risk.

(f) Gratuity plan

The present value of defined benefit obligation and the related current service costs are measured using
the Projected Unit Credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date.
The gratuity benefits are governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, every employee who
has completed five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on
the member’s length of service and salary at retirement age. Every employee who has completed five years or
more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn) for each completed year of service
as per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Plan is unfunded as on the valuation date.


he following table summarises the components of net benefit expense recognised in the statement of profit and loss and

54. Hedging activities and derivatives
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments
The Group has used foreign exchange forward contracts to manage repayment of some of its foreign currency
denominated borrowings. These foreign exchange forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges
and are entered into for periods consistent with foreign currency exposure of the underlying transactions i.e. the
repayments of foreign currency denominated borrowings.
Cash flow hedges
Foreign exchange forward contracts measured at fair value through OCI are designated as hedging instruments in
cash flow hedges of forecast sales in US Dollar and Euro. These forecast transactions are highly probable.
The foreign exchange forward contract balances vary with the level of expected foreign currency sales and changes
in foreign exchange forward rates.

The management assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalent, trade receivables, derivative instruments, trade
payables, and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short term
maturities of these instruments.
Further the management assessed that the fair value of security deposits and other non current recievables approximate
their carrying amounts largely due to discounting at rates which are an approximation of current lending rates.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a
current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions
were used to estimate the fair values:
(i) Long-term fixed-rate and variable-rate receivables are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as individual
creditworthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected credit
losses of these receivables.

56. Financial Instruments by category (Contd.):

(ii) The fair values of quoted instruments are based on price quotations at the reporting date. The fair value of unquoted
instruments, loans from banks as well as other non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash
flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. In addition to being
sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the forecast cash flows or the discount rate, the fair value of the equity
instruments is also sensitive to a reasonably possible change in the growth rates. The valuation requires management
to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the significant unobservable inputs are disclosed in the tables below.
Management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs
and determines their impact on the total fair value.
(iii) The fair values of the unquoted equity shares have been estimated using a DCF model. The valuation requires
management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, discount rate, credit
risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be reasonably assessed and are used
in management’s estimate of fair value for these unquoted equity investments.
(iv) The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions
with investment grade credit ratings. Foreign exchange forward contracts are valued using valuation techniques, which
employs the use of market observable inputs. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing
using present value calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties,
foreign exchange spot and forward rates, yield curves of the respective currencies, currency basis spreads between the
respective currencies and forward rate curves of the underlying. All derivative contracts are fully cash collateralised,
thereby eliminating both counterparty and the Group’s own non-performance risk. As at 31 March 2017, the marked-to-
market value of derivative asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty
default risk. The changes in counterparty credit risk had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for
derivatives designated in hedge relationships and other financial instruments recognised at fair value.
(v) The fair values of the Group’s interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined by using DCF method using discount
rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own nonperformance risk as at
March 31, 2017 was assessed to be insignificant.

57. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial liabilities other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade payables and
financial guarantee contracts. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Group’s operations.
The Group’s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents
that derive directly from its operations. The Group also holds FVTOCI and FVTPL investments and enters into
derivative transactions.
The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s senior management oversees the
management of these risks. The Group’s senior management is supported by a Finance and Risk Management
Committee (FRMC) that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the
Group. The FRMC provides assurance that the Group’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies
and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Group’s
policies and risk objectives. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by experienced
members from the senior management who have the relevant expertise, appropriate skills and supervision. It
is the Group’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The Board of
Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised as below.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price
risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and
borrowings, deposits, investment in mutual funds, FVTOCI investments and derivative financial instruments.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.
The sensitivity analysis have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating
interest rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all
constant and on the basis of hedge designations in place at March 31, 2017.
The analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other
post-retirement obligations and provisions.
The following assumptions have been made in calculating the sensitivity analysis:
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market
risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016
including the effect of hedge accounting


Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates
primarily to the Group’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Group generally borrows in Foreign Currency, considering natural hedge it has against its export. Long-term
and Short-term foreign currency debt obligations carry floating interest rates.
The Group avails short term debt in foreign currency up to tenor of 9 months, in the nature of export financing for
its working capital requirements. LIBOR or EURIBOR for the said debt obligations is fixed for the entire tenor of the
debt, at the time of availment.
The Group has an option to reset LIBOR or EURIBOR either for 6 Months or 3 months for its long term debt
obligations. To manage its interest rate risk, the Group evaluates the expected benefit from either of the LIBOR
resetting options and accordingly decides. The Group also has an option for its long term debt obligations to enter
into interest rate swaps, in which it agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and
variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. However,
there were no interest rates swaps entered in to by the Group during any of the periods reported. At March 31,
2017, the Group’s entire long term borrowings are at a floating rate of interest (March 31, 2016: 91%).
Interest rate sensitivity

The Group’s total interest cost the year ended March 31, 2017 was ` 999.62 million and for year ended March 31,
2016 was ` 1,159.60 million. The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in
interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected, with all other variables held constant, the Group’s
profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:

Effect on profit before tax
Change in basis points

GBP +50 2.76
March 31, 2016
USD 50 82.83
EUR 50 11.50
GBP 50 3.46
*During the year, EURIBOR was trading in negative zone and Euro borrowings were floored at zero.
The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable
market environment, showing a significantly higher volatility than in prior years.

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of
changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates
primarily to the Group’s export revenue and long term foreign currency borrowings.


The Group manages its foreign currency risk by hedging its forecasted sales up to 4 years to the extent of 25%-65%
on rolling basis and the Group keep its long term foreign currency borrowings un-hedged which will be natural
hedge against its un-hedged exports. The Group may hedge its long term borrowing near to the repayment date
to avoid rupee volatility in short term.
When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of being a hedge, the Group negotiates the terms of those
derivatives to match the terms of the hedged exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives
cover the period of exposure from the point the cash flows of the transactions are forecasted up to the point of
settlement of the resulting receivable or payable that is denominated in the foreign currency.
Foreign currency sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EUR exchange rates,
with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Group’s profit before tax is due to changes in the fair
value of un-hedged monetary assets and liabilities. The impact on the Group’s pre-tax equity is due to changes
in the fair value of forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges and net investment hedges. The
Group’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

Commodity price risk
The Group is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the on-going
purchase of steel. Due to significant volatility of the price of the steel, the Group has agreed with its customers
for pass-through of increase/decrease in prices of steel. There may be lag effect in case of such pass-through
arrangement.
Commodity price sensitivity

As the Group has a back to back pass through arrangements for volatility in raw material prices there is no impact
on the profit and loss and equity of the Group.
Equity price risk

The Group is exposed to price risk in equity investments and classified on the balance sheet as fair value through
profit or loss and through Other comprehensive income. To manage its price risk arising from investments in
equity, the Group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification and investment in the portfolio is done in accordance with
the limits set by the Board of Directors of the Group.
At the reporting date, the exposure to unlisted equity securities at fair value was ` 597.50 million. Sensitivity
analysis of these investments have been provided in Note 56.
At the reporting date, the exposure to listed equity securities at fair value was ` 79.50 million. A decrease of 10%
on the NSE market index could have an impact of approximately ` 7.95 million on the OCI or equity attributable to
the Group. An increase of 10% in the value of the listed securities would also impact OCI and equity. These changes
would not have an effect on profit or loss.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer
contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade
receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, investment in
mutual funds, other receivables and deposits, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.


Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by the Group’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer
credit risk management. Further, The Group’s customers includes marquee OEMs and Tier I companies, having long
standing relationship with the Group. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and reconciled. At
March 31, 2017, receivable from the Group’s top 5 customers accounted for approximately 32% (March 31, 2016:
26%) of all the receivables outstanding. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual
basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped in to homogeneous groups
and assessed for impairment collectively. The calculation is based on historical data. The maximum exposure to
credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 12. The Group
does not hold collateral as security except in case of few customers. The Group evaluates the concentration of risk
with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and
operate in largely independent markets.
Other receivables, deposits with banks and loans given

Credit risk from balances with banks, financial institutions and mutual funds is managed in accordance with the
Group’s approved investment policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties
and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Group’s
Board of Directors on regular basis and the said limits gets revised as and when appropriate. The limits are set to
minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure
to make payments.
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2017 and
March 31, 2016 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in the respective notes except for financial guarantees and
derivative financial instruments. The Group’s maximum exposure relating to financial guarantees and financial
derivative instruments is noted in Note 44 and the liquidity table below.
Liquidity risk
Cash flow forecasting is performed by Treasury function. Treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity
requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs. Such forecasting takes into consideration the
compliance with internal cash management. The Group’s treasury invests surplus cash in marketable securities as
per the approved policy, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient
headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts. At the reporting date, the Group held mutual funds of
` 11,238.45 million (March 31, 2016: ` 7,632.38 million, April 1, 2015:` 6,564.63 million) and other liquid assets of
` 3,360.82 million (March 31, 2016: ` 4,492.93 million, April 1, 2015: ` 4,235.49 million) that are expected to readily
generate cash inflows for managing liquidity risk.
As per the Group’s policy, there should not be concentration of repayment of loans in a particular financial year. In case
of such concentration of repayment, the Group evaluates the option of refinancing entire or part of repayments for
extended maturity. The Group assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded
it to be low. The Group has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding and debt maturing within 12 months
can be rolled over with existing lenders and the Group is also maintaining surplus funds with short term liquidity for
future repayment of loans.

58. Capital management
For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all
other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Group. The primary objective of the Group’s capital
management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and
the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the
dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group monitors capital
using a net debt equity ratio, which is net debt divided by equity. The Group’s policy is to keep the net debt equity
ratio below 1.00. The Group includes within its borrowings net debt and interest bearing loans less cash and cash
equivalents.

Equity 41,264.07 34,089.59 32,469.55
Net debt /equity Ratio 0.40 0.63 0.68
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Group’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure
that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure
requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and
borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing
in the current period.
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended March
31, 2017 and March 31, 2016.

60. First time adoption

These financial statements, for the year ended March 31, 2017, are the first the Group has prepared in accordance with
Ind AS. For periods up to and including the year ended March 31, 2016, the Group prepared its financial statements
in accordance with accounting standards notified under section 133 of the Companies Act 2013, read together with
paragraph 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 (‘Indian GAAP’).
Accordingly, the Group has prepared financial statements which comply with Ind AS applicable for periods ending on
March 31, 2017, together with the comparative period data as at and for the year ended March 31, 2016, as described
in the summary of significant accounting policies. In preparing these financial statements, the Group’s opening
balance sheet was prepared as at April 1, 2015, the Group’s date of transition to Ind AS. This note explains the principal
adjustments made by the Group in restating its Indian GAAP financial statements, including the balance sheet as at
April 1,2015 and the financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2016.
Exceptions applied
The Group has applied all the mandatory exceptions in accordance with Ind AS 101. Following are the exceptions
with significant impact:
1) Estimates
The estimates at April 1, 2015 and at March 31, 2016 are consistent with those made for the same dates in
accordance with Indian GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any differences in accounting policies) apart from
the following items where application of Indian GAAP did not require estimation:
FVTOCI – unquoted and quoted equity shares
FVTPL – debt securities
Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model
The estimates used by the Group to present these amounts in accordance with Ind AS reflect conditions at
April 1, 2015, the date of transition to Ind AS and as of March 31, 2016.
2) Classification and measurement of financial assets
The Group has classified financial assets on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of
transition to Ind AS.
3) Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

The Group has elected to apply the derecognition requirements in Ind AS 109 prospectively for transactions
occurring on or after April 1, 2015. However, for certain financial assets and financial liabilities derecognition
requirements in Ind AS 109 were applied retrospectively where information needed was obtained at the time
of initially accounting for derecognition.
4) Hedge accounting
The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge its foreign
currency risks respectively. Under Indian GAAP, there is no mandatory standard that deals comprehensively
with hedge accounting, which has resulted in the adoption of varying practices. The Group has designated
various economic hedges and applied economic hedge accounting principles to avoid profit or loss mismatch.
All the hedges designated under Indian GAAP are of types which qualify for hedge accounting in accordance
with Ind AS 109 also. Moreover, the Group, before the date of transition to Ind AS, has designated a transaction
as hedge and also meets all the conditions for hedge accounting in Ind AS 109. Consequently, the Group
continues to apply hedge accounting after the date of transition to Ind AS.
5) Government loans
The Group has elected to apply the requirements of Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments and Ind AS 20 Accounting
for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, prospectively to government loans existing
at the date of transition to Ind AS and has not recognised the corresponding benefit of the government loan
at a below-market rate of interest as a government grant.


Exemptions applied
Ind AS 101 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements
under Ind AS. The Group has applied the following exemptions:
1) Deemed cost for Property, plant and equipment and Intangible assets
The Group has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured
as per the Indian GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition. The Group has elected to
continue with the carrying value for all of its exploration and evaluation assets as recognised in the financial
statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the Indian GAAP and use that as its deemed
cost as at the date of transition.
2) Embedded lease
Appendix C to Ind AS 17 requires an entity to assess whether a contract or arrangement contains a lease.
In accordance with Ind AS 17, this assessment should be carried out at the inception of the contract or
arrangement. However, the Group has used Ind AS 101 exemption and assessed all arrangements based for
embedded leases based on conditions in place as at the date of transition.
3) Long term foreign currency monetary items

The Group has elected to continue the policy adopted for accounting of exchange differences arising from
translation of long-term foreign currency monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the
period ending immediately before April 1, 2016 as per the previous GAAP.
4) Business combinations
Ind AS 103 Business Combinations has not been applied to acquisitions of subsidiaries, which are
considered businesses under Ind AS that occurred before April 1, 2015. Use of this exemption means that
the Indian GAAP carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, that are required to be recognised under Ind
AS, is their deemed cost at the date of the acquisition. After the date of the acquisition, measurement is
in accordance with respective Ind AS. The Group recognises all assets acquired and liabilities assumed
in a past business combination, except (i) certain financial assets and liabilities that were derecognised
and that fall under the derecognition exception, and (ii) assets (including goodwill) and liabilities
that were not recognised in the acquirer’s consolidated balance sheet under its previous GAAP and
that would not qualify for recognition under Ind AS in the individual balance sheet of the acquiree.
Assets and liabilities that do not qualify for recognition under Ind AS are excluded from the opening Ind AS
balance sheet. The Group did not recognise or exclude any previously recognised amounts as a result of Ind
AS recognition requirements.
Ind AS 101 also requires that Indian GAAP carrying amount of goodwill must be used in the opening Ind
AS balance sheet (apart from adjustments for goodwill impairment and recognition or derecognition
of intangible assets). In accordance with Ind AS 101, the Group has tested goodwill for impairment
at the date of transition to Ind AS. No goodwill impairment was deemed necessary at April 1, 2015.
The group has used same exemptions for interest in associates and joint ventures.

5) Currency translation differences
Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero as at
April 1, 2015


6) Accounting of joint ventures
The group exercises joint control over Alstom Bharat Forge Private Limited, David Brown Bharat Forge Gear
Systems India Limited and BF Premier Energy System Private Limited. Under Indian-GAAP the Group has
proportionately consolidated its interest in these entities in the Consolidated Financial Statements. On
transition to Ind AS, the group has assessed and determined that these entities are its joint ventures under
Ind AS 111 Joint Arrangements. Therefore, these entities need to be accounted for using the equity method as
against proportionate consolidation. For the application of equity method, the initial investment is measured
as the aggregate of carrying amount of assets and liabilities that the Group had previously proportionately
consolidated.
7) Non-controlling interests
As per Ind AS 110, entities are required to attribute the profit or loss and each component of other
comprehensive income to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. This requirement
needs to be followed even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Ind
AS 101 requires the above requirement to be followed prospectively from the date of transition.
Consequently, the group has applied the above requirement prospectively.
61. Standards issued but not yet effective

In March 2017, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendments)
Rules, 2017, notifying amendments to Ind AS 7, ‘Statement of cash flows’ and Ind AS 102, ‘Share-based payment.’ These
amendments are in accordance with the recent amendments made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
to IAS 7, ‘Statement of cash flows’ and IFRS 2, ‘Share-based payment,’ respectively. The amendments are applicable to
the Group from April 1, 2017.
The amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to
evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-
cash changes, suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the balance sheet
for liabilities arising from financing activities, to meet the disclosure requirement.
The Group is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and the effect on the financial statements is being
evaluated.

The amendment to Ind AS 102 provides specific guidance to measurement of cash-settled awards, modification of
cash-settled awards and awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes.
It clarifies that the fair value of cash-settled awards is determined on a basis consistent with that used for equity-
settled awards. Market-based performance conditions and non-vesting conditions are reflected in the ‘fair values’,
but non-market performance conditions and service vesting conditions are reflected in the estimate of the number of
awards expected to vest. Also, the amendment clarifies that if the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based
payment transaction are modified with the result that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment transaction,
the transaction is accounted for as such from the date of the modification. Further, the amendment requires the award
that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes to be treated as equity-settled in its entirety. The
cash payment to the tax authority is treated as if it was part of an equity settlement.
Since the Group does not have cash settled awards or awards with net settlement features, this amendment does not
have any effect on the financial statements of the Group.

Footnotes to the reconciliation of equity as at April 1, 2015 and March 31, 2016 and statement of
profit and loss for the year ended March 31, 2016
1)
Financial assets
Under Indian GAAP, the Group accounted for long term investments in unquoted and quoted equity shares as
investment measured at cost less provision for other than temporary diminution in the value of investments. Under
Ind AS, the Group has designated such investments as FVTOCI investments. Ind AS requires FVTOCI investments to
be measured at fair value. At the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments at fair value and
Indian GAAP carrying amount has been recognised as a separate component of equity, in the FVTOCI reserve, net
of related deferred taxes.
Under Indian GAAP, the Group accounted for long term investments in debt securities as investment measured at
cost less provision for other than temporary diminution in the value of investments. Under Ind AS, the Group has
designated certain investments as FVTPL debt investments. Ind AS requires FVTPL to be measured at fair value. At
the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments at fair value and amortised cost as at the date
of transition has been recognised in other equity, net of related deferred taxes.
Under Indian GAAP, the Group accounted for mutual funds as investment measured at lower of cost or NRV.
Under Ind AS, the Group classified these mutual funds as FVTPL investments. Ind AS requires such investments to
be measured at fair value. At the date of transition to Ind AS, difference between the instruments at fair value and
cost as at the date of transition has been recognised in other equity, net of related deferred taxes.
2) Trade receivables
Under Indian GAAP, the Group has created provision for impairment of receivables which consists only in respect
of specific amount for probable losses. Under Ind AS, impairment allowance has been determined based on
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model. Due to ECL model, the Group impaired its trade receivable by ` 41.70 million
(net of related deferred tax) on April 1, 2015 which has been eliminated against other equity.

3)
Derivative instruments
The Group has taken certain forward foreign exchange contracts which were designated as hedging instruments
under Indian GAAP and have been designated as at the date of transition to Ind AS as hedging instrument in cash
flow hedges for expected future sales for which the Group has firm commitments or expected sales that are highly
probable. The corresponding adjustment has been recognised as a separate component of equity, in the cash flow
hedge reserve. On the date of transition, cash flow hedge reserve was debited by ` 1,771.01 million on April 1, 2015
and net movement of ` 2,238.51 million (net of related deferred tax) during the year ended on March 31, 2016 was
recognized in OCI and subsequently taken to cash flow hedge reserve. Further, the Group has recognized Credit
Value Adjustments (‘CVA’)/Debit Value Adjustments (‘DVA’) as part of fair valuation of these instruments and the
same has been adjusted in the other equity on the date of transition to Ind AS and in the statement of profit and
loss subsequently.
4)
Provisions
Under Indian GAAP, proposed dividends including dividend distribution tax (DDT) are recognised as a liability
in the period to which they relate, irrespective of when they are declared. Under Ind AS, a proposed dividend is
recognised as a liability in the period in which it is declared by the Group (usually when approved by shareholders
in a general meeting) or paid.


profit and loss for the year ended March 31, 2016 (Contd.):
In case of the Group, the declaration of dividend occurs after the period end. Therefore, the liability of ` 1,260.84
million for the year ended on March 31, 2015 recorded for dividend including DDT theron has been derecognised
against other equity on April 1, 2015. The proposed dividend and DDT theron for the year ended on March 31, 2016
of ` 140.09 million recognized under Indian GAAP was reduced from other payables and with a corresponding
impact in the other equity.
Proposed dividend including DDT liability amounting to ` 1,260.84 million which was derecognised as on the
transition date, has been recognised in other equity during the year ended March 31, 2016 as declared and paid.

5) Defined benefit liabilities

Both under Indian GAAP and Ind AS, the Group recognised costs related to its post-employment defined benefit
plan on an actuarial basis. Under Indian GAAP, the entire cost, including actuarial gains and losses, are charged
to the statement of profit and loss. Under Ind AS, remeasurements [comprising of actuarial gains and losses,
the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and
the return on plan assets excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability] are
recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to other equity through OCI.
Thus the employee benefit cost is reduced by ` 16.58 million and remeasurement gains/ losses on defined benefit
plans has been recognized in the OCI net of related deferred tax.
6) Recognition of Investment Property

The investment properties are reclassified from Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and presented separately
amounting to ` 2.89 million (WDV as on April 1, 2015) as on date of transition to Ind AS by reclassifying from
PPE. The depreciation of ` Nil have been provided for the year ended March 31, 2016.

7) Bills of exchange discounted

Under IGAAP, trade receivables derecognised by way of bills of exchange have been shown as contingent liability
since there is recourse clause. Under Ind AS, the trade receivables have been restated with corresponding
recognition of short term borrowings of ` 8,487.48 million as on March 31, 2016 and ` 10,497.25 million as on
April 1, 2015.
8)
Revenue
Under Indian GAAP, revenue from sale of products was presented excluding excise duty. Under Ind AS, revenue
from sale of products is presented inclusive of excise duty. Excise duty paid is presented on the face of the
statement of profit and loss as part of expenses. This change has resulted in an increase in total revenue and
total expenses for the year ended March 31, 2016 by ` 1,924.08 million. There is no impact on total equity and
profits.
Under the Indian GAAP certain expenses in the nature of freight and other sales related expenses were netted off
against sales. Under Ind AS such expenses have been reclassified to other expenses so as to measure revenue at
fair value of consideration received or receivable. This change has no impact on the profits and other equity for
the year.


9)
Deferred tax
Indian GAAP requires deferred tax accounting using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences
between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Ind AS 12 requires entities to account for deferred
taxes using the 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. This has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new
temporary differences which was not required under Indian GAAP.
In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences. According to the accounting
policies, the Group has to account for such differences. Deferred tax adjustments are recognised in correlation to
the underlying transaction either in other equity or a separate component of equity.

10)
Government Loan
The Group has a below-market rate government loan of ` 6.08 million outstanding as at the date of transition to
Ind AS. Such loan was recognized at book value under Indian GAAP. The Group has elected to apply the exemption
pertaining to government grant whereby the provisions of Ind AS 109, ‘Financial Instruments’, and Ind AS 20,
‘Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance’ shall be applied prospectively to
such loan from the date of transition to Ind AS. Accordingly, Indian GAAP carrying amount of the loan at the date of
transition to Ind AS has been continued as the carrying amount of the loan in the opening Ind AS Balance Sheet.

11)
Borrowings
The Group recognized the transaction costs pertaining to the borrowings on a straight line basis over the term of
the loan under Indian GAAP. The unamortised portion of such cost was recognized as part of ‘prepaid expense’
which amounted to ` 265.59 million on the date of transition to Ind AS. As per Ind AS 109, borrowings are measured
at amortized cost and hence, unamortised portion of transaction costs has been adjusted against the amount of
borrowings and not shown separately as part of assets.
12) Dies and spares

The Group develops dies which are used in the production of various auto and non-auto components and such
dies were considered as a part of inventory under Indian GAAP. Also, the Group accounted for certain spares
which are capable of being used during more than one accounting period or which can be only specifically in
combination with another fixed assets as part of inventories under Indian GAAP as required by ASI 2 with respect
to insurance spares. Under Ind AS, any asset which satisfies the criteria of Ind AS 16 needs to be accounted as a
part of property, plant and equipment. Accordingly, the Group has done an assessment of the relevant dies and
spares and reclassified the same from inventory to property, plant and equipment wherever such dies and spares
satisfied the criteria of Ind AS 16. Depreciation on such reclassified items have been computed retrospectively
and the net amount is considered for reclassification purposes while the balance impact is adjusted in other
equity.
13) Discounting of financial assets

Under Indian GAAP, the Group accounted for Security Deposits and other receivable balances as Loans and
Advances measured at cost. Under Ind AS, such balances are classified and measured at amortised cost using


effective interest rate method. At the date of transition to Ind AS, the difference between amortised cost and the
Indian GAAP carrying amount has been recognised in other equity (net of related deferred tax). The resulting impact of
` 102.29 million for April 1, 2015 and ` 81.63 million for March 31, 2016 have been reclassified to prepaid expenses and
a corresponding decrease of ` 24.40 million in total comprehensive income for the year ended March 31, 2016.
14) Foreign currency translation

Under Indian GAAP, the Group recognised translation differences on foreign operations in a separate component
of equity. Under Ind AS, Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be
zero as at April 1, 2015. The resulting adjustment of ` 1,048.82 million was recognised against other equity.
15)
Joint Venture
The group as at April 1, 2015 exercised joint control over the Alstom Bharat Forge Private Limited, David Brown
Bharat Forge Gear Systems India Limited and BF Premier Energy System Private Limited. Under Indian-GAAP
group has proportionately consolidated its interest in these entities in the Consolidated Financial Statement. On
transition to Ind AS the group has assessed and determined that these entities are its JV under Ind AS 111 Joint
Arrangements. Therefore, these need to be accounted for using the equity method as against proportionate
consolidation. For the application of equity method, the initial investments are measured as the aggregate of Ind AS
amount of assets and liabilities that the group had previously proportionately consolidated including any goodwill
arising on acquisition. On application of equity method these investment stand increased by ` 621.82 million on
April 1, 2015 and by ` 849.16 million on March 31, 2016. Derecognition of these proportionately consolidated
entities has resulted in change in balance sheet, statement of profit and loss and cash flow statement.
16) Discontinued operations
Bharat Forge America ("BFA") is subsidiary of the Company which was operational from 2005 to 2013. From
the financial year ended 2013, there had been no operations in this entity. Since then operations had been
discontinued, all the fixed assets were sold and asset and external liabilities were settled but the Company still
held some current assets. Under Indian GAAP, disclosure was made for these discontinuing operations and the
remaining assets were disclosed as “assets held for sale” for FY 12-13 to FY 15-16. In the FY 16-17, BFA has acquired
a fully operational Company Walker Forge Tennesse LLC (now known as Bharat Forge PMT Technologie LLC, USA).
The Group has made an Ind AS 105 assessment for Bharat Forge America and concluded that it will not satisfy
the criteria of “Discontinued Operations” or “Assets held for sale” on the date of transition or subsequently and
accordingly, the same are considered as part of continuing operations.
17) Accounting policies under previous GAAP
On the date of transition to Ind AS, in case there are difference in accounting policies as compared to previous
GAAP, there may be some resulting adjustment arising because of the different policy being applied to events
and transactions before the date of transactions. As per Ind AS 101, such resultant adjustment impact has been
considered in retained earnings.
18) Foreign Currency Monetary Items translation difference account
The Group has availed the option to continue the policy adopted for accounting for exchange difference arising
from translation of long term foreign currency monetary items recognised in the financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2016. Accordingly, the exchange differences arising on long-term foreign currency monetary
items (which do not pertain to acquisition of a property, plant and equipment) are accumulated in FCMITDA
reserve through OCI.
19) Impact on cash flow
The transition from Previous GAAP to Ind AS has no material impact on the statement of cash flow except bank
overdraft which has been considered as part of cash and cash equivalents.

63. The Group had taken a piece of land on lease at Mundra location (Adani Port) in Gujarat and had initially planned
to set up its manufacturing facility. However, due to a direction by the Honorable High Court of Gujarat relating
to certain pending environmental clearances, the construction work at Mundra had been discontinued during
financial year ended 2013. Further, the Group took a decision to move to another site and commenced its alternate
construction facility in the financial year 2013, which has been substantially put to use later. As at 1 April 2016,
the Group was carrying land and building (capital work in progress) pertaining to the aforesaid mentioned site at
Mundra amounting to ` 233.70 million and ` 2,312.85 million respectively. Management has evaluated the possible
case of impairment in absence of any planned alternative use for the constructed building/ land. Accordingly,
the management has assessed the realisable value of the building for ` 150 million on the basis of the valuation
report. As the events triggering the aforesaid impairment happened prior to April 1, 2015, the Group has created a
provision for impairment for carrying value (net of realisable value) of capital work in progress (related to building)
and concluded that this is a prior period item as per erstwhile Indian GAAP. Consequently, the adjustment is
recorded through opening retained earnings as at April 1, 2015. Further, since the rights to the land have expired
in the current year, the cost of leased land amounting to ` 233.70 million (net of realizable value of ` Nil) has been
written off in the current year.
Further, the management has also taken into consideration the fact that, there is a contractual asset retirement
obligation amounting to ` 7.2 million pertaining to Mundra land. This being a prior period item as erstwhile Indian
GAAP, the Company has recognized asset retirement obligation on the aforesaid site and adjusted its opening
retained earnings as at April 1, 2015.
Further, margin release related to certain projects amounting to ` 630.72 million(related tax expense of ` Nil) is
pertaining to previous year and therefore, recorded in the year ended March 31, 2016.
