Annexure C to the Independent Auditors, Report

(Referred to in paragraph 3(f) under' Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements'
sec on of independent audit report on the standalone financial statements of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under of Sec on 143 (3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013 ('theAct')
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial repor ng of North Eastern Electric Power
Corpora on Limited ('the Company') as of 31st March 2017 in conjunc on with our audit of the standalone
Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Management's Responibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls
based on the internal control over financial repor ng criteria established by the Company considering the
essen al components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls
over Financial Repor ng issued by the Ins tute of Chartered Accountants of India ('ICAI'). These
responsibili es include the design, implementa on and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls that were opera ng effec vely for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business,
including adherence to the Company's policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the preven on and detec on
of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accoun ng records, and the mely prepara on
of reliable financial informa on, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial
repor ng based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of
Internal Financial Controls over Financial Repor ng (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Audi ng,
issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under Sec on 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, 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 repor ng were established and
maintained and if such controls operated effec vely in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal
financial controls system over financial repor ng and their opera ng effec veness. Our audit of internal
financial controls over financial repor ng included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls
over financial repor ng, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and tes ng and evalua ng the
design and opera ng effec veness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected
depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
92
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained are sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinion on the Company's internal financial controls system over financial repor ng.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Repor ng
A company's internal financial control over financial repor ng is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial repor ng and the prepara on of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accoun ng principles.
A company's internal financial control over financial repor ng includes those policies and procedures that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transac ons and disposi ons of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transac ons are recorded as necessary to permit prepara on of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accoun ng principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being
made only in accordance with authoriza ons of the Management and directors of the Company; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding preven on or mely detec on of unauthorized acquisi on, use, or
disposi on of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limita ons of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Repor ng
Because of the inherent limita ons of internal financial controls over financial repor ng, including the
possibility of collusion or improper management over ride of controls, material misstatements due to error
or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projec ons of any evalua on of the internal financial controls
over financial repor ng to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over
financial repor ng may become in adequate because of changes in condi ons, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Qualified Opinion
According to the informa on and explana ons given to us and based on our audit, the following material
weaknesses have been iden fied as at 31 March 2017:
the company has old informa on technology (IT) applica on system which is unable to cater the emerging
needs and complete informa on consistent with financial repor ng objec ves.
This could poten ally result into weakness in the internal financial controls over financial repor ng of the
company.
A 'material weakness' is a deficiency, or a combina on of deficiencies, in internal financial control over

financial repor ng, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a mely basis.
In our opinion, the company has, in all material respects, maintained adequate internal financial controls
over financial repor ng as of 31 March 2017, based on the internal control over financial repor ng criteria
established by the company considering the essen al components of internal control stated in the Guidance
93
Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Repor ng issued by the Ins tute of Chartered
Accountants of India and except for the possible effects of the material weaknesses described above on
the achievement of the objec ves of the control criteria, the Company's internal financial controls over
financial repor ng were opera ng effec vely as of 31st March 2017.
We have considered the material weaknesses iden fied and reported above in determining the nature,
ming, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 31 March 2017 standalone Ind AS financial
statements of the Company, and these material weaknesses do not affect our opinion on the standalone
financial statements of the Company.

Companies (Indian Accoun ng Standards) Rules 2016.
The Company has adopted all the applicable Ind ASs and such adop on was carried
out in accordance with Ind-AS 101 – First Time Adop on of Indian Accoun ng
Standards. The Company has transited from Indian Accoun ng Principles generally
accepted in India as prescribe in sec on 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the
Companies (Accoun ng) Rules 2014, which was previous GAAP, to Ind-AS, as per
the requirement of Ind-AS 101 with necessary disclosures rela ng to reconcilia on
and explana ons of the effects of such transi on on the Company's Balance Sheet,
Statement of Profit & loss Account and Statement of Cash Flow in note nos 45 to
47.
The financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016 and the opening
balance sheet as on the 01 April 2015 have been restated in accordance with Ind-
AS for compara ve informa on.
The financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for
certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each
repor ng period, as explained in the accoun ng policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the considera on given in
exchange for goods and services.
Income and Expenses are accounted for on Mercan le Basis.
Prepaid expenses of items of Rs. 20000/- and below are charged to natural head of
accounts.
All assets and liabili es have been classified as current or non-current as per
Company's opera ng cycle and other criteria set
104
out in Schedule-III of the Companies Act 2013. Based on the nature of business,
the Company has ascertained its opera ng
cycle as 12 months for the purpose of Current or noncurrent classifica on of assets
and liabili es.
Each material class of similar items is presented separately in the financial
statements. Items of a dissimilar nature or func on are presented separately
unless they are immaterial.
Use of The prepara on of financial statements requires management to make

es mates judgments, es mates and assump ons in the applica on of accoun ng policies
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabili es, disclosure of con ngent
assets and liabili es at the date of financial statements and reported amount of
income and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from those
es mates. Con nuous evalua on is done on the es ma on and judgments based
on historical experience and other factors, including expecta ons of future events
that are believed to be reasonable. Revisions to accoun ng es mates are
recognised in the financial statements prospec vely and if material, their effects
are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Key sources of es ma on uncertainty at the repor ng date, which may cause a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabili es for future
years are provided in Note-3
Investment in A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the par es that have joint control of
joint ventures the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint
control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which
exists only when decisions about the relevant ac vi es require unanimous
consent of the par es sharing control.
The Company measures its investment in joint venture at cost in accordance with
Ind AS 27 – Separate financial statements.
Property, Plant Property, plant and equipment held for use in the produc on and transmission of
and Equipment power, or for administra ve purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less
any subsequent accumulated deprecia on and impairment loss, if any.
An item of PPE is recognized as an asset if 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.
Assets which are not separately iden fiable, but are common to more than one
power genera ng unit are capitalised in the ra o of their respec ve installed
capacity
105
PPE are ini ally measured at cost of acquisi on/construc on including

decommissioning or restora on cost, if any, wherever required. The cost includes
expenditure that is directly a ributable to the acquisi on/construc on of the
asset. In cases where final se lement of bills with contractors is pending, but the
asset is complete and ready for use, capitaliza on is done on provisional basis
subject to necessary adjustments in the year of final se lement.
The expenditure incurred on start-up and commissioning of the project, including
the expenditure incurred on trial/test runs and experimental produc on is
capitalized as an indirect element of the construc on cost. However, a er
commencement of commercial opera on, the expenditure incurred is charged to
Revenue expenditure, although the contract s pula on provides for final taking
over of the plant a er sa sfactory comple on of the guarantee period.
Subsequent expenditure on major maintenance or repairs includes the cost of the
replacement of parts of assets and overhaul costs. Where an asset or part of an
asset is replaced and it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
the item will be available to the Company, the expenditure is capitalized and the
carrying amount of the item replaced is derecognized. Similarly, overhaul costs
associated with major maintenance are capitalized and depreciated over their
useful lives where it is probable that future economic benefits will be available and
any remaining carrying amounts of the cost of previous overhauls are
derecognized. All other costs are expensed as incurred.
Net pre- commissioning income/ expenditure is adjusted directly to the cost of
related assets.
Payments made/ liabili es created provisionally towards compensa on,
rehabilita on and other expenses relatable to land in possession are treated as
cost of land.
Spare parts procured along-with the Plant & Machinery and capital spares
procured subsequently which meets the recogni on criteria are capitalized and
added in the carrying amount of such item. The carrying amount of those spare
parts that are replaced is derecognized when no future economic benefits are
expected from their use or upon disposal. Other machinery spares are treated as
“stores & spares” forming part of the inventory.
Cost of mobile handsets are recognised as revenue expenditure.
Physical verifica on of Fixed Assets are undertaken by the management once in a
year. The discrepancies no ced, if any, are accounted for in the year in which such
differences are found.
Capital work-in-progress
Expenditure incurred on assets under construc on is carried at cost under Capital
work in Progress. Such costs comprises purchase price of asset including all
106
taxes/du es and costs that are directly a ributable to bringing the asset to the
loca on and condi on necessary for it to be capable of opera ng in the manner
intended by management. Such proper es are classified to the appropriate
categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for
intended use.
Cost directly a ributable to projects under construc on include costs of employee
benefits, expenditure in rela on to survey and inves ga on ac vi es of the
projects, cost of site prepara on, ini al delivery and handling charges, installa on
and assembly costs, professional fees, expenditure on maintenance and up-
grada on etc. of common public facili es, deprecia on on assets used in
construc on of project, interest during construc on and other costs including
administra ve and general overhead costs, if a ributable to construc on of
projects. Such costs are accumulated under “Capital works in progress” and
subsequently allocated on systema c basis over major immovable assets. For
projects under construc on, the project specific IEDC is allocated to its qualifying
assets at the me of capitalisa on on the basis of Cost Es mate of the project.
Common expenditure of a project, which is par ally in opera on and par ally
under construc on, is being appor oned on the basis of the installed capacity.
Incidental expenditure during construc on including deprecia on and interest are
allocated/appor oned to the project/works forming part of work-in-progress on
the basis of accre on thereto during the year.
In case of abandonment/suspension/discon nua on of project, the expenditure
in rela on to the same is expensed/charged off in the year of decision.
Deprecia on
Deprecia on is charged as per Electricity Act, 2003 on straight line method
following the rates and methodology no fied by the Central Electricity Regulatory
Commission cons tuted under the Act except the followings:
i. IT equipment are being depreciated @ 33.33%, being the rate assessed by the
Corpora on based on useful life of the asset;
ii. Spares parts procured along with the Plant & Machinery or subsequently
which are capitalized and added in the carrying amount of such item are
depreciated over the residual useful life of the related plant and machinery at
the rates and methodology no fied by CERC.
iii. Assets/procured installed, whose individual cost is Rs. 5000/- or less but more
than Rs. 750/- (hereina er is called Assets of minor value) and assets
(excluding immovable assets) whose wri en down value is Rs.5000/- or less
at the beginning of the year are full depreciated during the year leaving a
nominal balance of Rs. 1/- only.
107
iv. Low value items, which are in the nature of the assets (excluding immovable
assets) and value up to Rs.750/- are not capitalized and charged off to revenue
during the year.
v. Deprecia on of Corporate/Administra ve office assets and general assets of
projects under construc on are charged on the basis of rates no fied vide
CERC tariff regula ons.
Deprecia on for each class of assets are calculated from the 1 day of the month
following the month of its capitaliza on. For the de-capitalised assets,
deprecia on is calculated upto the previous month of de-capitalisa on.
Further, in accordance with the Tariff Regula on 2014-19, the methodology of
deprecia on for the projects under opera on is as follows:
(i) Asset wise rates of deprecia on are charged every year as per exis ng rate for
the period ending on 31 March of the year up to a period of 12 years from the
date of commercial opera on.
(ii) Remaining depreciable value as at 31 March closing a er a period of 12 years
from the date of commercial opera on shall be spread over the balance
useful life of the assets keeping 10% of the Asset as residual value, as
applicable for assets as no fied vide CERC tariff regula ons.
For the purpose of calcula on of deprecia on, the useful life of the various classes
of assets shall be taken as 35 years for Hydro genera ng sta on & 25 years for
Thermal genera ng sta on as specified in the Regula ons.
De-recogni on of assets
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when
no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the con nued use of the
asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or re rement of an item of property,
plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds
and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit & loss or IEDC, as
the case may be.
Intangible Intangible assets, i.e., Land right to use and Computer so ware are capitalized
Assets when the assets are ready for its intended use. These assets acquired are stated at
cost less accumulated amor za on and impairment loss, if any.
"Land taken for use from State Government (without transfer of tle) and
expenses on relief and rehabilita on as also on crea on of alternate facili es for
land evacuees or in lieu of exis ng facili es coming under submergence and where
construc on of such alternate facili es is a specific pre-condi on for the
acquisi on of the land for the purpose of the project, are accounted for as Land-
Right to use." Land-right to use” is amor zed over a period of useful life of the
108
project or as per the CERC Regula ons, whichever is lower, from the date of
commercial opera on of the project. Computer so ware is amor zed over its
useful life not exceeding three years from the date of capitaliza on.
Assets held for Assets classified as “Asset held for sale” at its Net Realisable Value (NRV) subject to
sale fulfillment of its recogni on criteria in compliance to the Ind-AS 105, which are as
follows:
n NRV is recoverable principally through a sale transac on rather than through
con nuing use;
n Such assets are available for immediate sale in its present condi ons;
n Its sale are highly probable, i.e., the appropriate level of management is
commi ed to a plan to sell the assets, assets are ac vely marketed for sell
that is reasonable in rela on to its current fair value and the sale is expected
to complete within one year from the date of classifica on.
Impairment At the end of each repor ng period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of
its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indica on that those assets
have suffered an impairment loss, if any. If any such indica on exists, the
recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-
use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate
cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases,
the recoverable amount is determined for the cash genera ng unit (CGU) to which
the asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is es mated to be less than its
carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its
recoverable amount and the difference between the carrying amount and
recoverable amount is recognised as impairment loss in the statement of profit &
loss.
Regulatory A regulatory asset is recognised when it is probable that the future economic
asset or benefits associated with it will flow to the en ty as a result of the actual or
Regulatory expected ac ons of the regulator under the Central Electricity Regulatory
liability Commission (CERC) Regula on and the amount can be measured reliably
A regulatory liability is recognised:
n when an en ty has a present obliga on as a result of a past event;
n it is probable that an ou low of resources embodying economic benefits will
be required to se le the obliga on; and
109
n reliable es mate can be made of the amount of the obliga on

A regulatory assets and regulatory liabili es is presented as current/non-current,
as the case may be, in the balance sheet, separately from other assets and
liabili es
On ini al recogni on and at the end of each subsequent repor ng period, the
Company measure a regulatory asset or regulatory liability at the best es mate of
the amount expected to be recovered or refunded or adjusted as future cash flows
under the regulatory framework (CERC). A regulatory asset or regulatory liability is
not discounted to its present value.
Impairment of Regulatory Asset
The Company reviews the es mates of the amount expected to be recovered,
refunded or adjusted at the end of each repor ng period to reflect the current best
es mate. If expecta on differs from previous es mates, the changes are
accounted for as a change in an accoun ng es mate in accordance with Ind AS 8. If
it is concluded that it is not reasonable to assume that it will be able to collect
sufficient revenues from its customers to recover its costs, this is an indica on that
the cashgenera ng unit in which the regulatory assets and regulatory liabili es are
included may be impaired and the Company test that cashgenera ng unit for
impairment in accordance with Ind AS 36 Impairment of Assets.
De-recogni on
If it is no longer probable that the future economic benefits associated with a
regulatory asset will flow to the Company or an ou low of resources embodying
economic benefits will be required to se le a regulatory liability, the regulatory
asset or liability, as the case may be, is de-recognized and any resul ng loss/gain is
recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Foreign Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the
currencies primary economic environment in which the Company operates. The Company's
func onal and repor ng currency is Indian Rupees (INR). The financial statements
are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Company's repor ng currency.
In preparing the financial statements transac ons in currencies other than the
en ty's func onal currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of
exchange prevailing at the dates of the transac ons. At the end of each repor ng
period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the
rates prevailing at that date.
Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings rela ng to Asset under
Construc ons for future produc ve use are included in the cost of those assets
when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest cost on those foreign
currency borrowings as per the requirements of Ind As 23.
110
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in the statement of profit

and loss/IEDC, as the case may be, in the period in which they arise.
Exchange differences in respect of liabili es rela ng to fixed assets/capital work-

in-progress arising out of transac on entered into prior to April 1, 2004 are
adjusted to the carrying cost of respec ve fixed asset/Capital Work-in-Progress.
Exchange differences arising on transla on or se lement of monetary items in
respect of transac ons entered on or a er 1st April'2004 are recognized as income
or expenses in the period in which they arise in Profit or loss in case of opera onal
power sta ons and added to the carrying amount of capital work in progress in
case of projects under construc on.
In accordance with the CERC tariff regula ons, every genera ng company shall
recover the foreign exchange rate varia on on year-to-year basis as income or
expense in the period in which it arises, i.e., the Company can recover the foreign
exchange rate varia on on actual basis when foreign currency loan is repaid a er
commercial opera on date (COD). As the financial statements are prepared on
accrual basis, exchange difference resul ng from resta ng long term foreign
currency monetary items on the repor ng date are charged to statement of profit
and loss. However right/obliga on of recovery/payment of the same on actual
basis arising out of CERC tariff regula ons is recognized through deferred foreign
currency fluctua on recoverable/payable account thereby resul ng in no impact
on the profit or loss of the period.
Provisions and Provisions are recognized when there is a present obliga on (legal or
con ngencies construc ve) as a result of a past event and it is probable (“more likely than not”)
that it is required to se le the obliga on, and a reliable es mate can be made of
the amount of the obliga on.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best es mate of the considera on
required to se le the present obliga on at the balance sheet date, taking into
account the risks and uncertain es surrounding the obliga on.
If the effect of the me value of money is material, provisions are discounted
using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the me value of
money in that jurisdic on and the risks specific to the liability. When discoun ng
is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of me is recognized as a
borrowing cost.
Con ngent liabili es are not recognized but disclosed unless the possibility of
ou low of resources are remote.
Con ngent assets are generally not recognized but are disclosed when inflow of
economic benefit is probable.
111
Leases At the incep on of a lease, the lease arrangement is classified as either a Finance
lease or an opera ng lease, based on the substance of the lease arrangement.
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfers
substan ally all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an asset to
the lessee. All other leases are classified as opera ng leases.
Lease assets are accounted in accordance with Ind AS 17 and amor sed as follows:
i. Leasehold Land, in case of projects under opera on, are amor sed over the
period of lease or useful life, whichever is lower.
ii. Leasehold Land, in case of administra ve offices, are amor sed over the
lease period.
iii. Leasehold Land, in case of projects under construc on are amor sed over
the period of lease or useful life, whichever is lower, a er commissioning of
the project.
Inventories Inventories mainly comprise of stores and spare parts to be used for maintenance
of Property, Plant and Equipment and are valued at costs, determined on weighted
average basis or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The cost is
determined using weighted average cost formula and NRV is the es mated selling
price in the ordinary course of business less the es mated costs necessary to make
the sale. Value of scrap is adjusted in the account as & when sold/disposed-off and
profit/loss, if any, is recognized in accounts in the year of selling/disposal.
Physical verifica on of inventory are done by the management once in every year.
Trade Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services
receivable performed in the ordinary course of business. If collec on is expect to be collected
within a period of 12 months or less from the repor ng date (or in the normal
opera ng cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets
otherwise as non-current assets. Trade receivables are measured at their
transac on price.
As the en re sales are made to State Govt. u li es, the Company is not providing
for allowance for expected life me credit loss.
Financial Financial assets and liabili es are recognized when the Company becomes a party
Instruments to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabili es are
ini ally measured at fair value. Transac on cost that are directly a ributable to the
acquisi on or issue of financial assets and financial liabili es ( other than financial
assets and financial liabili es at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or
deducted from the fair value measured on ini al recogni on of financial asset or
financial liabili es.
112

assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
iii. Financial assets at Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if
these financial assets are held within a business model whose objec ve is achieved
by both collec ng contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and
contractual term of the financial assets give rise on specified days to cash flows
that are solely payment of principals and the interest on principal amount
outstanding.
iv. Financial assets at Fair value through Profit or loss
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is
measured at amor zed cost or at fair value through other comprehensive item on

financial assets and liabili es at fair value through profit or loss are immediately
recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabili es and equity instruments issued by the Company
i. Financial liabili es

instrument has increased significantly since ini al recogni on.
If, at the repor ng date, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased
significantly since ini al recogni on, the Company measures the loss allowance for
that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
If, the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since ini al
recogni on, the Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument
at an amount equal to the life me expected credit losses.

allowance at the repor ng date is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the
statement of profit and loss.
Derecogni on of financial liability
The Company derecognizes financial liabili es when, and only when, the
Company's obliga ons are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
Offse ng financial instruments

the recognized amounts and there is an inten on to se le on a net basis or realize
the asset and se le the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must
not be con ngent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course
of business.
114
Borrowing cost Borrowing costs directly a ributable to the acquisi on, construc on or
produc on of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, un l such
me as the assets are substan ally ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings
pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitaliza on. All other borrowing costs are recognized in the
statement of profit and loss in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing
cost includes exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings are adjustment
to interest cost.
Prepayment charges on repayment of loan in full will be charged off to the IEDC /
Profit & Loss account, as applicable, in the year of repayment itself.
Accoun ng for Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the
government Company will comply with the condi ons a aching to them and that the grants will
grants be received.
The benefits of a government loan at a below market rate of interest is treated as
Government Grant. The loan is ini ally recognised and measured at fair value and
the government grant is measured as the difference between the ini ally
recognized amount of the loan and the fair value of the loan based on prevailing
market interest rates.
Government grants are recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a
systema c basis over the periods in which the Company recognises as expenses
the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Government
grants whose primary condi on is that the Company should purchase, construct or
otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognized in the balance sheet by
se ng up the grant as deferred income.
Other government grants (grants related to income) are recognized as income
over the periods necessary to match them with the costs for which they are
intended to compensate, on a systema c basis. Grants related to income are
presented under other income in the statement of profit and loss.
Employee Employee benefits consist of provident fund, pension, gratuity, post-re rement
Benefits medical benefit (PRMB), leave benefits and other terminal benefits.
Company contribu on paid/payable during the year to Employees Defined
Contribu on Superannua on Scheme for providing Pension benefit, Provident
Fund and Gratuity are accounted for and paid to respec ve funds which are
administered through separate trusts. The Company's liability is actuarially

or profit & loss, as the case may be.
The expenses incurred on terminal benefits in the form of ex-gra a payments are
charged to IEDC or profit & loss, as the case may be in the year of incurrence of such
expenses.
Income Taxes Tax expense represents the sum of current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit
differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit and loss
because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deduc ble in other
years and items that are never taxable or deduc ble. The current income tax
charge is calculated by using tax rates that have been enacted or substan vely
enacted by the end of the repor ng period
Deferred tax
Deferred tax assets and liabili es are measured at the tax rates that are expected
to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is se led, based on
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substan vely enacted by the end
of the repor ng period. Tax rela ng to items recognized directly in other
comprehensive income forms part of the statement of comprehensive income.
Deferred tax is provided, using the balance sheet method, on all temporary
differences at the repor ng date between the tax bases of assets and liabili es and
their carrying amounts for financial repor ng purposes.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each repor ng date and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabili es are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabili es and when they relate
to income taxes levied by the same taxa on authority and the Company intends to
se le its current tax assets and liabili es on a net basis.
Revenue Revenue is measured at the fair value of the considera on received or receivable.
recogni on Revenues are reduced for rebates and other similar allowances.

(b) The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to
ini al recogni on at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:
Quoted prices in an ac ve market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are
measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in ac ve markets for iden cal assets or liabili es.
This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares, quoted corporate debt instruments and
mutual fund investments.
Valua on techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets
and liabili es, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).
This level of hierarchy includes Company’s over-the-counter (OTC) deriva ve contracts.
Valua on techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes
financial assets and liabili es measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valua on model based on
assump ons that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transac ons in the
same instrument nor are they based on available market data. The main items in this category are
investment in unquoted equity shares, measured at fair value.

(i) The short-term financial assets and liabili es are stated at amor zed cost which is approximately equal
to their fair value.
(ii) The fair value in respect of the unquoted equity investments cannot be reliably measured.
(iii) Management uses its best judgment in es ma ng the fair value of its financial instruments. However,
there are inherent limita ons in any es ma on technique. Therefore, for substan ally all financial
instruments, the fair value es mates presented above are not necessarily indica ve of all the amounts
that the Company could have realized or paid in sale transac ons as of respec ve dates. As such, the
fair value of the financial instruments subsequent to the respec ve repor ng dates may be different
from the amounts reported at each year end.
(iv) There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the years ended March 31, 2017, 2016
and April 1, 2015.
(c) Transfer of financial assets
The Company has not transferred any of its financial assets during the year.
(d) Financial risk management
In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to interest rates, liquidity and credit risk,
which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments.
The Company has a risk management policy which covers the risks associated with the financial assets
and liabili es such as interest rate risks and credit risks. The risk management policy is approved by the
Board of Directors. The risk management framework aims to:
(i) Create a stable business planning environment by reducing the impact of currency and interest rate
fluctua ons on the Company’s business plan.
(ii) Achieve greater predictability to earnings by determining the financial value of the expected earnings
in advance.
Market Risk: Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realizable fair values or in future
cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial
instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates,
equity price fluctua ons, liquidity and other market changes. Future specific market movements
cannot be normally predicted with reasonable accuracy.
Credit Risk: Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counterparty failure to repay or service
debt according to the contractual terms or obliga ons. Credit risk encompasses both the direct risk of
default and the risk of deteriora on of creditworthiness as well as concentra on risks.
Liquidity Risk: Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obliga ons.
The objec ve of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are
available for use as per requirements.
(e) The following table shows a maturity analysis of the an cipated cash flows including interest payable
for the Company’s non deriva ve financial liabili es on an undiscounted basis, which therefore differ
from both carrying value and fair value.

Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Sec on 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued there under and
as per the Electricity Act, 2003 and relevant Central Electricity Regulatory Commission regula on in respect
of Deprecia on and other recognized accoun ng prac ces and policies. The respec ve Board of Directors
of the companies included in the group are responsible for maintenance of adequate accoun ng records in
accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preven ng
and detec ng frauds and other irregulari es; the selec on and applica on of appropriate accoun ng
policies; making judgments and es mates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design,
implementa on and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were opera ng effec vely
for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accoun ng records, relevant to the prepara on and
presenta on of the consolidated Ind AS 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 prepara on
of the consolidated Ind AS financial statements by the Directors of the Venturer Company, as aforesaid.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated Ind AS financial statements based on our
audit. While conduc ng the audit, we have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the Electricity Act
187
2003, CERC Regula ons and the accoun ng and audi ng standards and ma ers which are required to be
included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Audi ng specified under Sec on 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 consolidated Ind AS financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in
the consolidated Ind AS financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated Ind AS financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
financial control relevant to the Venturer Company's prepara on 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 evalua ng the appropriateness of the accoun ng policies used and
the reasonableness of the accoun ng es mates made by the Venturer Company's Board of Directors, as
well as evalua ng the overall presenta on of the consolidated Ind AS financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in

provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated Ind AS financial statements.

financial performance including other comprehensive income, their consolidated cash flows and their

Annexure A to the Auditors' Report

(referred to in paragraph (f) under' Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements' sec on of our
report of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Sec on 143(3) (i) of the Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act')
In conjunc on with our audit of the consolidated Ind AS financial statements of the Company as of and for
the year ended 31 March 2017, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial repor ng of
North Eastern Electric Power Corpora on Limited ('the Venturer Company') and its jointly controlled
en es which are companies incorporated in India, as of that date.
Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The respec ve Board of Directors of the Venturer Company and its jointly controlled en es, which are
companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls
based on the internal control over financial repor ng criteria established by the Company considering the
over Financial Repor ng issued by the Ins tute of Chartered Accountants of India ('ICAI'). These
responsibili es include the design, implementa on and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls that were opera ng effec vely for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business,
including adherence to company's policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the preven on and detec on of
frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accoun ng records, and the mely prepara on of
reliable financial informa on, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial
repor ng based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of
Internal Financial Controls over Financial Repor ng (the 'Guidance Note') issued by ICAI and the Standards
on Audi ng, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under Sec on 143 (10) of the Companies Act, 2013,
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 repor ng was established and
maintained and if such controls operated effec vely in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal
financial controls system over financial repor ng and their opera ng effec veness. Our audit of internal
financial controls. over financial repor ng included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls
over financial repor ng, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and tes ng and evalua ng the
design and opera ng effec veness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected
depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Ind
AS financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
191
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion on the Company's internal financial controls system over financial repor ng.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Repor ng
A company's internal financial control over financial repor ng is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial repor ng and the prepara on of Ind AS financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accoun ng principles. A company's internal
financial control over financial repor ng includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transac ons and
disposi ons of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transac ons are
recorded as necessary to permit prepara on of Ind AS financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accoun ng principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only
in accordance with authoriza ons of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding preven on or mely detec on of unauthorized acquisi on, use, or
disposi on of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the Ind AS financial statements.
Inherent Limita ons of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Repor ng
Because of the inherent limita ons of internal financial controls over financial repor ng, including the
possibility of collusion or improper management over ride of controls, material misstatements due to
error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projec ons of any evalua on of the internal financial
controls over financial repor ng to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control
over financial repor ng may become in adequate because of changes in condi ons, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Qualified Opinion
According to the informa on and explana ons given to us and based on our audit, the following material
weaknesses in the internal financial control system of the Venturer Company have been iden fied as at
31 March, 2017:
the company has an old informa on technology (IT general and applica on system which is unable to
cater-the emerging needs and complete informa on consistent with financial repor ng objec ves.
This could poten ally result into weakness in the internal financial controls over financial repor ng of the
Venturer Company.
A 'material weakness' is a deficiency, or a combina on of deficiencies, in internal financial control over

financial repor ng, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the
company's annual or interim Ind AS financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a mely
basis.
192
In our opinion to the best of our informa on and according to the explana ons given to us and based on the
considera on of the reports of other auditors referred to in the other ma ers paragraph below, the venturer
company and jointly controlled en es, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all material
respects, maintained adequate internal financial controls over financial repor ng as of March 31 , 2017,
based on the internal control over financial repor ng criteria established by the company considering the
Over Financial Repor ng issued by the Ins tute of Chartered Accountants of India and except for the
possible effects of the material weaknesses described above on the achievement of the objec ves of the
control criteria, the Company's internal financial controls over financial repor ng were opera ng effec vely
as of March 31, 2017.
We have considered the material weaknesses iden fied and reported above in determining the nature,
ming, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the March 31 , 2017 consolidated Ind AS financial
statements of the Venturer Company, and these material weaknesses do not affect our opinion on the
consolidated Ind AS financial statements of the Venturer Company.
Other Ma ers
Our aforesaid report under Sec on 143 (3) (i) of the Act on the adequacy and opera ve effec veness of the
internal controls over financial repor ng insofar as it relates to two jointly controlled companies, which are
companies incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding reports of the auditors of such companies
incorporated in India.

The financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2016 and the opening
balance sheet as on the 01st April 2015 have been restated in accordance with Ind-
AS for compara ve informa on.
The financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for
certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each
repor ng period, as explained in the accoun ng policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the considera on given in
exchange for goods and services.
Income and Expenses are accounted for on Mercan le Basis.
Prepaid expenses of items of ₹ 20000/- and below are charged to natural head of
accounts.
All assets and liabili es have been classified as current or non-current as per
Group's opera ng cycle and other criteria set
202
out in Schedule-III of the Companies Act 2013. Based on the nature of business,
the Group has ascertained its opera ng
cycle as 12 months for the purpose of Current or noncurrent classifica on of assets

Each material class of similar items is presented separately in the financial

unless they are immaterial.
Basis of A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the par es that have joint control of
Consolida on the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint
The results and assets and liabili es of joint ventures are incorporated in these
consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accoun ng, except
when the investment, or a por on thereof, is classified as held for sale, in which
case it is accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 105.
Under the equity method, an investment in a joint venture is ini ally recognised in
the consolidated balance sheet at cost and adjusted therea er to recognise the
Group's share of the profit and loss of the joint venture. When the Group's share
of losses of a joint venture exceeds the Group's interest in that joint venture (which
includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group's net
investment in the joint venture), the Group discon nues recognising its share of
further losses. Addi onal losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group
has incurred legal or construc ve obliga ons or made payments on behalf of the
joint venture.
An investment in a joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the
date on which the investee becomes a joint venture. On acquisi on of the
investment in a joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the
Group's share of the net fair value of the iden fiable assets and liabili es of the
investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of
the investment. Any excess of the Group's share of the net fair value of the
iden fiable assets and liabili es over the cost of the investment, a er
reassessment, is recognised directly in equity as capital reserve in the period in
which the investment is acquired.
If there is objec ve evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that
occurred a er the ini al recogni on of the net investment in a joint venture (a 'loss
event') and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the es mated future cash
flows from the net investment that can be reliably es mated, then it is necessary
203
to recognise impairment loss with respect to the Group's investment in a joint

venture.
When necessary, the en re carrying amount of the investment (including
goodwill) is tested for impairment in accordance with Ind AS 36 Impairment of
Assets as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount (higher of value in use
and fair value less costs of disposal) with its carrying amount, Any impairment loss
recognised forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of
that impairment loss is recognised in accordance with Ind AS 36 to the extent that
the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
Use of The prepara on of financial statements requires management to make

es mates judgments, es mates and assump ons in the applica on of accoun ng policies
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabili es, disclosure of con ngent
assets and liabili es at the date of financial statements and reported amount of
income and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from those
es mates. Con nuous evalua on is done on the es ma on and judgments based
on historical experience and other factors, including expecta ons of future events
that are believed to be reasonable. Revisions to accoun ng es mates are
recognised in the financial statements prospec vely and if material, their effects
are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
Key sources of es ma on uncertainty at the repor ng date, which may cause a
material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabili es for future
years are provided in Note-3
Investment in A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the par es that have joint control of
joint ventures the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint
The Group measures its investment in joint venture at cost in accordance with Ind
AS 27 – Separate financial statements.
Property, Plant Property, plant and equipment held for use in the produc on and transmission of
and Equipment power, or for administra ve purposes, are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less
any subsequent accumulated deprecia on and impairment loss, if any.
An item of PPE is recognized as an asset if 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.
204
Assets which are not separately iden fiable, but are common to more than one
power genera ng unit are capitalised in the ra o of their respec ve installed
capacity
PPE are ini ally measured at cost of acquisi on/construc on including
decommissioning or restora on cost, if any, wherever required. The cost includes
expenditure that is directly a ributable to the acquisi on/construc on of the
asset. In cases where final se lement of bills with contractors is pending, but the
asset is complete and ready for use, capitaliza on is done on provisional basis
subject to necessary adjustments in the year of final se lement.
The expenditure incurred on start-up and commissioning of the project, including
the expenditure incurred on trial/test runs and experimental produc on is
capitalized as an indirect element of the construc on cost. However, a er
commencement of commercial opera on, the expenditure incurred is charged to
Revenue expenditure, although the contract s pula on provides for final taking
over of the plant a er sa sfactory comple on of the guarantee period.
Subsequent expenditure on major maintenance or repairs includes the cost of the
replacement of parts of assets and overhaul costs. Where an asset or part of an
asset is replaced and it is probable that future economic benefits associated with
the item will be available to the Group, the expenditure is capitalized and the
carrying amount of the item replaced is derecognized. Similarly, overhaul costs
associated with major maintenance are capitalized and depreciated over their
useful lives where it is probable that future economic benefits will be available and
any remaining carrying amounts of the cost of previous overhauls are
derecognized. All other costs are expensed as incurred.
Net pre- commissioning income/ expenditure is adjusted directly to the cost of
related assets.
Payments made/ liabili es created provisionally towards compensa on,
rehabilita on and other expenses relatable to land in possession are treated as
cost of land.
Spare parts procured along-with the Plant & Machinery and capital spares
procured subsequently which meets the recogni on criteria are capitalized and
added in the carrying amount of such item. The carrying amount of those spare
parts that are replaced is derecognized when no future economic benefits are
expected from their use or upon disposal. Other machinery spares are treated as
“stores & spares” forming part of the inventory.
Cost of mobile handsets are recognised as revenue expenditure.
Physical verifica on of Fixed Assets are undertaken by the management once in a
year. The discrepancies no ced, if any, are accounted for in the year in which such
differences are found.
205
Capital work-in-progress
Expenditure incurred on assets under construc on is carried at cost under Capital
work in Progress. Such costs comprises purchase price of asset including all
taxes/du es and costs that are directly a ributable to bringing the asset to the
loca on and condi on necessary for it to be capable of opera ng in the manner
intended by management. Such proper es are classified to the appropriate
categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for
intended use.
Cost directly a ributable to projects under construc on include costs of employee
benefits, expenditure in rela on to survey and inves ga on ac vi es of the
projects, cost of site prepara on, ini al delivery and handling charges, installa on
and assembly costs, professional fees, expenditure on maintenance and up-
grada on etc. of common public facili es, deprecia on on assets used in
construc on of project, interest during construc on and other costs including
administra ve and general overhead costs, if a ributable to construc on of
projects. Such costs are accumulated under “Capital works in progress” and
subsequently allocated on systema c basis over major immovable assets. For
projects under construc on, the project specific IEDC is allocated to its qualifying
assets at the me of capitalisa on on the basis of Cost Es mate of the project.
Common expenditure of a project, which is par ally in opera on and par ally
under construc on, is being appor oned on the basis of the installed capacity.
Incidental expenditure during construc on including deprecia on and interest are
allocated/appor oned to the project/works forming part of work-in-progress on
the basis of accre on thereto during the year.
In case of abandonment/suspension/discon nua on of project, the expenditure
in rela on to the same is expensed/charged off in the year of decision.
Deprecia on
Deprecia on is charged as per Electricity Act, 2003 on straight line method
following the rates and methodology no fied by the Central Electricity Regulatory
Commission cons tuted under the Act except the followings:
I. IT equipment are being depreciated @ 33.33%, being the rate assessed by the
Corpora on based on useful life of the asset;
ii. Spares parts procured along with the Plant & Machinery or subsequently
which are capitalized and added in the carrying amount of such item are
depreciated over the residual useful life of the related plant and machinery at
the rates and methodology no fied by CERC.
iii. Assets/procured installed, whose individual cost is RS. 5000/- or less but more
than RS. 750/- (hereina er is called Assets of minor value) and assets
206
(excluding immovable assets) whose wri en down value is RS.5000/- or less

at the beginning of the year are full depreciated during the year leaving a
nominal balance of RS. 1/- only.
iv. Low value items, which are in the nature of the assets (excluding immovable
assets) and value up to RS.750/- are not capitalized and charged off to
revenue during the year.
v. Deprecia on of Corporate/Administra ve office assets and general assets of
projects under construc on are charged on the basis of rates no fied vide
CERC tariff regula ons.
Deprecia on for each class of assets are calculated from the 1st day of the month
following the month of its capitaliza on. For the de-capitalised assets,
deprecia on is calculated upto the previous month of de-capitalisa on.
Further, in accordance with the Tariff Regula on 2014-19, the methodology of
deprecia on for the projects under opera on is as follows:
(i) Asset wise rates of deprecia on are charged every year as per exis ng rate for
the period ending on 31st March of the year up to a period of 12 years from
the date of commercial opera on.
(ii) Remaining depreciable value as at 31st March closing a er a period of 12
years from the date of commercial opera on shall be spread over the balance
useful life of the assets keeping 10% of the Asset as residual value, as
applicable for assets as no fied vide CERC tariff regula ons.
For the purpose of calcula on of deprecia on, the useful life of the various classes
of assets shall be taken as 35 years for Hydro genera ng sta on & 25 years for
Thermal genera ng sta on as specified in the Regula ons.
De-recogni on of assets
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when
no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the con nued use of the
asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or re rement of an item of property,
plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds
and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit & loss or IEDC, as
the case may be.
Intangible Intangible assets, i.e., Land right to use and Computer so ware are capitalized
Assets when the assets are ready for its intended use. These assets acquired are stated at
cost less accumulated amor za on and impairment loss, if any.
"Land taken for use from State Government (without transfer of tle) and
expenses on relief and rehabilita on as also on crea on of alternate facili es for
207
land evacuees or in lieu of exis ng facili es coming under submergence and where
construc on of such alternate facili es is a specific pre-condi on for the
acquisi on of the land for the purpose of the project, are accounted for as Land-
Right to use." Land-right to use” is amor zed over a period of useful life of the
project or as per the CERC Regula ons, whichever is lower, from the date of
commercial opera on of the project. Computer so ware is amor zed over its
useful life not exceeding three years from the date of capitaliza on.
Assets held for Assets classified as “Asset held for sale” at its Net Realisable Value (NRV) subject to
sale fulfillment of its recogni on criteria in compliance to the Ind-AS 105, which are as
follows:
n NRV is recoverable principally through a sale transac on rather than through
con nuing use;
n Such assets are available for immediate sale in its present condi ons;
Its sale are highly probable, i.e., the appropriate level of management is
commi ed to a plan to sell the assets, assets are ac vely marketed for sell that is
reasonable in rela on to its current fair value and the sale is expected to complete
within one year from the date of classifica on.
Impairment At the end of each repor ng period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its
tangible assets to determine whether there is any indica on that those assets have
suffered an impairment loss, if any. If any such indica on exists, the recoverable
amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is
determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash
flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the
recoverable amount is determined for the cash genera ng unit (CGU) to which the
asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is es mated to be less than its
carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its
recoverable amount and the difference between the carrying amount and
recoverable amount is recognised as impairment loss in the statement of profit &
loss.
Regulatory A regulatory asset is recognised when it is probable that the future economic
asset or benefits associated with it will flow to the en ty as a result of the actual or
Regulatory expected ac ons of the regulator under the Central Electricity Regulatory
liability Commission (CERC) Regula on and the amount can be measured reliably
A regulatory liability is recognised:
n when an en ty has a present obliga on as a result of a past event;
208
n it is probable that an ou low of resources embodying economic benefits will

be required to se le the obliga on; and
n reliable es mate can be made of the amount of the obliga on
A regulatory assets and regulatory liabili es is presented as current/non-current,
as the case may be, in the balance sheet, separately from other assets and
liabili es
On ini al recogni on and at the end of each subsequent repor ng period, the
Group measure a regulatory asset or regulatory liability at the best es mate of the
amount expected to be recovered or refunded or adjusted as future cash flows
under the regulatory framework (CERC). A regulatory asset or regulatory liability is
not discounted to its present value.
Impairment of Regulatory Asset
The Group reviews the es mates of the amount expected to be recovered,
refunded or adjusted at the end of each repor ng period to reflect the current best
es mate. If expecta on differs from previous es mates, the changes are
accounted for as a change in an accoun ng es mate in accordance with Ind AS 8. If
it is concluded that it is not reasonable to assume that it will be able to collect
sufficient revenues from its customers to recover its costs, this is an indica on that
the cash genera ng unit in which the regulatory assets and regulatory liabili es
are included may be impaired and the Group test that cash genera ng unit for
impairment in accordance with Ind AS 36 Impairment of Assets.
De-recogni on
If it is no longer probable that the future economic benefits associated with a
regulatory asset will flow to the Group or an ou low of resources embodying
economic benefits will be required to se le a regulatory liability, the regulatory
asset or liability, as the case may be, is de-recognized and any resul ng loss/gain is
recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Foreign Items included in the financial statements are measured using the currency of the
currencies primary economic environment in which the Group operates. The Group's
func onal and repor ng currency is Indian Rupees (INR). The financial statements
are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Group's repor ng currency.
In preparing the financial statements transac ons in currencies other than the
en ty's func onal currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of
exchange prevailing at the dates of the transac ons. At the end of each repor ng
period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the
rates prevailing at that date.
209
Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings rela ng to Asset under

Construc ons for future produc ve use are included in the cost of those assets
when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest cost on those foreign
currency borrowings as per the requirements of Ind As 23.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognized in the statement of profit
and loss/IEDC, as the case may be, in the period in which they arise.
Exchange differences in respect of liabili es rela ng to fixed assets/capital work-
in-progress arising out of transac on entered into prior to April 1, 2004 are
adjusted to the carrying cost of respec ve fixed asset/Capital Work-in-Progress.
Exchange differences arising on transla on or se lement of monetary items in
respect of transac ons entered on or a er 1st April'2004 are recognized as income
or expenses in the period in which they arise in Profit or loss in case of opera onal
power sta ons and added to the carrying amount of capital work in progress in
case of projects under construc on.
In accordance with the CERC tariff regula ons, every genera ng Group shall
recover the foreign exchange rate varia on on year-to-year basis as income or
expense in the period in which it arises, i.e., the Group can recover the foreign
exchange rate varia on on actual basis when foreign currency loan is repaid a er
commercial opera on date (COD). As the financial statements are prepared on
accrual basis, exchange difference resul ng from resta ng long term foreign
currency monetary items on the repor ng date are charged to statement of profit
and loss. However right/obliga on of recovery/payment of the same on actual
basis arising out of CERC tariff regula ons is recognized through deferred foreign
currency fluctua on recoverable/payable account thereby resul ng in no impact
on the profit or loss of the period.
Provisions and Provisions are recognized when there is a present obliga on (legal or construc ve)
con ngencies as a result of a past event and it is probable (“more likely than not”) that it is
required to se le the obliga on, and a reliable es mate can be made of the
amount of the obliga on.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best es mate of the considera on
required to se le the present obliga on at the balance sheet date, taking into
account the risks and uncertain es surrounding the obliga on.
If the effect of the me value of money is material, provisions are discounted using
a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the me value of money
in that jurisdic on and the risks specific to the liability. When discoun ng is used,
the increase in the provision due to the passage of me is recognized as a
borrowing cost.
Con ngent liabili es are not recognized but disclosed unless the possibility of
ou low of resources are remote.
210
Con ngent assets are generally not recognized but are disclosed when inflow of
economic benefit is probable.
Leases At the incep on of a lease, the lease arrangement is classified as either a Finance
lease or an opera ng lease, based on the substance of the lease arrangement.
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfers
substan ally all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of an asset to the
lessee. All other leases are classified as opera ng leases.
Lease assets are accounted in accordance with Ind AS 17 and amor sed as follows:
i. Leasehold Land, in case of projects under opera on, are amor sed over the
period of lease or useful life, whichever is lower.
ii. Leasehold Land, in case of administra ve offices, are amor sed over the lease
period.
iii. Leasehold Land, in case of projects under construc on are amor sed over the
period of lease or useful life, whichever is lower, a er commissioning of the
project.
Inventories Inventories mainly comprise of stores and spare parts to be used for maintenance
of Property, Plant and Equipment and are valued at costs, determined on weighted
average basis or net realizable value (NRV), whichever is lower. The cost is
determined using weighted average cost formula and NRV is the es mated selling
price in the ordinary course of business less the es mated costs necessary to make
the sale. Value of scrap is adjusted in the account as & when sold/disposed-off and
profit/loss, if any, is recognized in accounts in the year of selling/disposal.
Physical verifica on of inventory are done by the management once in every year.
Trade Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services
receivable performed in the ordinary course of business. If collec on is expect to be collected
within a period of 12 months or less from the repor ng date (or in the normal
opera ng cycle of the business if longer), they are classified as current assets
otherwise as non-current assets. Trade receivables are measured at their
transac on price.
As the en re sales are made to State Govt. u li es, the Group is not providing for
allowance for expected life me credit loss.
211
Financial Financial assets and liabili es are recognized when the Group becomes a party to
Instruments the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabili es are
ini ally measured at fair value. Transac on cost that are directly a ributable to the
acquisi on or issue of financial assets and financial liabili es ( other than financial
assets and financial liabili es at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or
deducted from the fair value measured on ini al recogni on of financial asset or
financial liabili es.
Financial Assets
Financial assets comprises of investments in joint venture, investment in power
bonds, loans and advances to employees, trade receivables, cash and cash
equivalents, materialised deferred tax recoverable and security deposits etc.
i. Cash or Cash Equivalents:
The Group considers all short term Bank deposits, which are readily conver ble in
to known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in
value and having original maturi es of three months or less from the date of
purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consists of balances
with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage
For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents is as
defined above, net of outstanding bank overdra s. In the balance sheet, bank
overdra s are shown within borrowings in current liabili es.
ii. Financial assets at amor zed cost:
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amor zed costs if these financial
assets are held within a business model whose objec ve is to hold these assets in
order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial
assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
iii. Financial assets at Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if
these financial assets are held within a business model whose objec ve is
achieved by both collec ng contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and
contractual term of the financial assets give rise on specified days to cash flows
that are solely payment of principals and the interest on principal amount
outstanding.
iv. Financial assets at Fair value through Profit or loss
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is
measured at amor zed cost or at fair value through other comprehensive item on
ini al recogni on. The transac on cost directly a ributable to the acquisi on of
212
financial assets and liabili es at fair value through profit or loss are immediately
recognized in the statement of profit or loss.
Financial liabili es and equity instruments issued by the Group
i. Financial liabili es
Trade and other payables are ini ally measured at fair value, net of transac on
costs, and are subsequently measured at amor sed cost, using the effec ve
interest rate method.
Other financial liabili es are measured at amor zed cost using the effec ve
interest method
ii. Equity Instruments:
An equity instrument is a contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of
the Group a er deduc ng all of its liabili es. Equity instruments issued by the
Group are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Derecogni on of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the
cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and
substan ally all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another en ty
Impairment of financial assets
At each repor ng date, the Group assess whether the credit risk on a financial
At each repor ng date, the Group assess whether the credit risk on a financial
If, at the repor ng date, the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased
significantly since ini al recogni on, the Group measures the loss allowance for
that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
If, the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since ini al
recogni on, the Group measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at
an amount equal to the life me expected credit losses.
The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the
loss allowance at the repor ng date is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in
the statement of profit and loss.
Derecogni on of financial liability
The Group derecognizes financial liabili es when, and only when, the Group's
obliga ons are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
213
Offse ng financial instruments

Financial assets and liabili es of the Group are offset and the net amount reported
in the balance sheet, when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the
recognized amounts and there is an inten on to se le on a net basis or realize the
asset and se le the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not
be con ngent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of
business.
Borrowing cost Borrowing costs directly a ributable to the acquisi on, construc on or
produc on of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, un l such
me as the assets are substan ally ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings
pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing
costs eligible for capitaliza on. All other borrowing costs are recognized in the
statement of profit and loss in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing
cost includes exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings are adjustment
to interest cost.
Prepayment charges on repayment of loan in full will be charged off to the IEDC /
Profit & Loss account, as applicable, in the year of repayment itself.
Accoun ng for Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the
government Group will comply with the condi ons a aching to them and that the grants will be
grants received.
The benefits of a government loan at a below market rate of interest is treated as
Government Grant. The loan is ini ally recognised and measured at fair value and
the government grant is measured as the difference between the ini ally
recognized amount of the loan and the fair value of the loan based on prevailing
market interest rates.
Government grants are recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a
systema c basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the
related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Government grants
whose primary condi on is that the Group should purchase, construct or
otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognized in the balance sheet by
se ng up the grant as deferred income.
Other government grants (grants related to income) are recognized as income
over the periods necessary to match them with the costs for which they are
intended to compensate, on a systema c basis. Grants related to income are
presented under other income in the statement of profit and loss.
214
Employee Employee benefits consist of provident fund, pension, gratuity, post-re rement
Benefits medical benefit (PRMB), leave benefits and other terminal benefits.
Group contribu on paid/payable during the year to Employees Defined
Contribu on Superannua on Scheme for providing Pension benefit, Provident
Fund and Gratuity are accounted for and paid to respec ve funds which are
administered through separate trusts. The Group's liability is actuarially
determined for Gratuity, Leave encashment and PMRB at the Balance Sheet date
and any further accre on during the year for Gratuity is provided for to the Trust
set up by the Group and that for Leave encashment and PMRB are charged to IEDC
or profit & loss, as the case may be.
The expenses incurred on terminal benefits in the form of ex-gra a payments are
charged to IEDC or profit & loss, as the case may be in the year of incurrence of such
expenses.
Income Taxes Tax expense represents the sum of current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit
differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit and loss
because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deduc ble in other
years and items that are never taxable or deduc ble. The current income tax
charge is calculated by using tax rates that have been enacted or substan vely
enacted by the end of the repor ng period
Deferred tax
Deferred tax assets and liabili es are measured at the tax rates that are expected
to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is se led, based on
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substan vely enacted by the end
of the repor ng period. Tax rela ng to items recognized directly in other
comprehensive income forms part of the statement of comprehensive income.
Deferred tax is provided, using the balance sheet method, on all temporary
differences at the repor ng date between the tax bases of assets and liabili es and
their carrying amounts for financial repor ng purposes.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each repor ng date and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will
be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabili es are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabili es and when they relate
to income taxes levied by the same taxa on authority and the Group intends to
se le its current tax assets and liabili es on a net basis.
215
Revenue Revenue is measured at the fair value of the considera on received or receivable.
recogni on and Revenues are reduced for rebates and other similar allowances.
Other income
Sale of Power
Sale of energy is accounted for based on tariff approved by the Central Electricity
Regulatory Commission (CERC) and in case of power sta ons where final tariff is
yet to be approved by CERC, provisional tariff as agreed by the beneficiaries are
adopted.
The incen ves/disincen ves are recognized based on norms no fied by the
Central Electricity Regulatory Commission.
Rebate for prompt se lement of outstanding receivables (se lement discounts)

are ne ed off with revenue as per the requirements of the standard.
CERC applica on fee and publica on expenses and interest receivable on arrear
bills due to revision of Annual Fixed Cost (AFC) payable by the beneficiaries in
terms of CERC regula ons are being accounted for on accrual basis
Deferred tax liabili es ll March, 2009, whenever materializes and recoverable

from the beneficiaries as per the CERC tariff regula ons, are accounted for on year
to year basis
Other Income
Dividends income from investments are recognized when the right to receive the
dividend is established.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the
economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be
measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a me basis, by reference to the
principal outstanding and at the effec ve interest rate applicable, which is the rate
that exactly discounts es mated future cash receipts through the expected life of
the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on ini al recogni on.
Interest on amount involved in consequent securi za on of sundry debtors duly

confirmed by all the States and Interest on arrear bills on account of revision of
Annual Fixed Cost (AFC) are accounted for on accrual basis.
Recovery/refund towards foreign currency varia on in respect of foreign currency

loans as per the CERC tariff regula ons are accounted for on year to year basis
Surcharge recoverable from beneficiaries for late payment of bills on account of

sale of electricity and proceeds from renewable energy cer ficates for green
energy are accounted for on cash basis.
216
Earnings Per Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit for the period
Share a ributable to the equity shareholders of the Group by the weighted average
number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average
number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods
presented is adjusted for events, if any, other than the conversion of poten al
equity shares, if any, that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding,
without a corresponding change in resources.
For the purpose of calcula ng diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the
period a ributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilu ve
poten al equity shares.
Segment NEEPCO is in the business of only one product, i.e., genera on and selling of
Repor ng electricity. All the projects of NEEPCO are located with the North East Region, i.e.,
within the same geographical loca on. NEEPCO has no reportable segment and
accordingly, Ind AS 108 – Opera ng Segment to disclose informa on about
segments is not applicable.
3. Cri cal accoun ng judgments and key sources of es ma on uncertainty
In the applica on of the Group's accoun ng policies, which are described in Note-
2, the management of the Group is required to make judgments, es mates and
assump ons about the carrying amounts of assets and liabili es that are not
readily apparent from other sources. The es mates and associated assump ons
are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be
relevant. Actual results may differ from these es mates.
The es mates and underlying assump ons are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Revisions to accoun ng es mates are recognized in the period in which the
es mate is revised.
Cri cal judgments in applying accoun ng policies:
The following are the cri cal judgments, apart from those involving es ma ons
(see point ii below), that the management have made in the process of applying
the Group's accoun ng policies and that have the most significant effect on the
amounts recognized in the financial statements
i. Financial assets at amor zed cost
The management has reviewed the Group's financial assets at amor zed cost in
the light of its business model and have confirmed the Group's posi ve inten on
and ability to hold these financial assets to collect contractual cash flows.
217
ii. Key sources of es ma on uncertainty:
The following are the key assump ons concerning the future, and other key
sources of es ma on of uncertainty at the end of the repor ng period that may
have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets and liabili es within the next financial year

(b) The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to
ini al recogni on at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:
Quoted prices in an ac ve market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are
measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in ac ve markets for iden cal assets or liabili es.
This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares, quoted corporate debt instruments and
mutual fund investments.
Valua on techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets
and liabili es, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).
This level of hierarchy includes Company’s over-the-counter (OTC) deriva ve contracts.
Valua on techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes
financial assets and liabili es measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valua on model based on
assump ons that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transac ons in the
same instrument nor are they based on available market data. The main items in this category are
investment in unquoted equity shares, measured at fair value.

(i) The short-term financial assets and liabili es are stated at amor zed cost which is approximately equal
to their fair value.
(ii) The fair value in respect of the unquoted equity investments cannot be reliably measured.
(iii) Management uses its best judgment in es ma ng the fair value of its financial instruments. However,
there are inherent limita ons in any es ma on technique. Therefore, for substan ally all financial
instruments, the fair value es mates presented above are not necessarily indica ve of all the amounts
that the Company could have realized or paid in sale transac ons as of respec ve dates. As such, the
fair value of the financial instruments subsequent to the respec ve repor ng dates may be different
from the amounts reported at each year end.
(iv) There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the years ended March 31, 2017, 2016
and April 1, 2015.
(c) Transfer of financial assets
The Company has not transferred any of its financial assets during the year.
(d) Financial risk management
In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to interest rates, liquidity and credit risk,
which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments.
The Company has a risk management policy which covers the risks associated with the financial assets
and liabili es such as interest rate risks and credit risks. The risk management policy is approved by the
Board of Directors. The risk management framework aims to:
(i) Create a stable business planning environment by reducing the impact of currency and interest rate
fluctua ons on the Company’s business plan.
(ii) Achieve greater predictability to earnings by determining the financial value of the expected earnings
in advance.
Market Risk : - Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realizable fair values or in future
cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial
instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates,
equity price fluctua ons, liquidity and other market changes. Future specific market movements
cannot be normally predicted with reasonable accuracy.
Credit Risk :- Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counterparty failure to repay or service
debt according to the contractual terms or obliga ons. Credit risk encompasses both the direct risk of
default and the risk of deteriora on of creditworthiness as well as concentra on risks.
Liquidity Risk: Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obliga ons.
The objec ve of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are
available for use as per requirements.
(e) The following table shows a maturity analysis of the an cipated cash flows including interest payable
for the Company’s non deriva ve financial liabili es on an undiscounted basis, which therefore differ
from both carrying value and fair value.
