Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

1. General information

the business of generation of power. The projects under development include coal, gas, hydro, wind and solar based energy
projects. The portfolio of the Reliance Power Group also includes Ultra Mega Power Projects (UMPPs).

office of the Company is located at Reliance Centre, Ground Floor, 19, Walchand Hirachand Marg, Ballard Estate,
Mumbai - 400 001.
These financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on, May 08, 2020
2. Significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimate and judgments
2.1 Basis of preparation, measurement and significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
(a) Basis of preparation
Compliance with Ind AS
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards
(“Ind AS”) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended and relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”).
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the following:
• Certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value;
• Assets held for sale – measured at fair value less cost to sell;
• Defined benefit plans – plan assets that are measured at fair value;
• Equity instruments in subsidiaries at fair value.
Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company uses valuation techniques
that are appropriate in the circumstances for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, maximising
the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised
within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the
fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable
Current vis-à-vis non-current classification
The assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet are classified on a “current/non-current basis”, with
separate reporting of assets held for sale and liabilities. Current assets, which include cash and cash equivalents,
are assets that are intended to be realised, sold or consumed during the normal operating cycle of the Company
or in the 12 months following the balance sheet date; current liabilities are liabilities that are expected to be
settled during the normal operating cycle of the Company or within the 12 months following the close of the
financial year. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or
realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on
future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency
or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.

Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(b) Property, plant and equipment


Freehold land is carried at cost. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost which includes
capitalised borrowing cost, less depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Cost includes expenditure that is directly
attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised
as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item
will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component
accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to
profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Expenditure incurred on assets which are not ready for their intended use comprising direct cost, related incidental
expenses and attributable borrowing cost are disclosed under Capital Work-in-Progress.
Depreciation methods, estimated useful life and residual value
Depreciation is provided to the extent of depreciable amount on Straight Line Method (SLM) based on useful life
of the following class of assets as prescribed in Part C of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 except in case of
motor vehicles where the estimated useful life has been considered as five years based on a technical evaluation by
the management.

Particulars Estimated useful life (Years)


Plant and equipment (wind equipment) 22
Plant and equipment (other than wind equipment) 15
Furniture and fixtures 10
Office equipments 5
Computer 3
Estimated useful life, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed annually, taking into account commercial
and technological obsolescence as well as normal wear and tear and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
(c) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortisation / depletion
and impairment loss, if any. The cost comprises of purchase price, borrowing costs and any cost directly attributable
to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use.
Expenditure incurred on acquisition of intangible assets which are not ready to use at the reporting date is disclosed
under “intangible assets under development”.
Amortisation method and periods
Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives and
amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in the
estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Computer software is amortised over an estimated useful life of 3 years.
(d) Lease
The Company is the lessee
The Company lease assets primarily consists of office premises which are of short term lease with the term of twelve
months or less and low value leases. For these short term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease
payments as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the term of lease.
Transition
Effective April 01, 2019, the Company adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases” and applied the standard to all lease contracts
existing on April 01, 2019 using the retrospective with cumulative effect method of initially applying the standard
recognised at the date of initial application without any adjustment to opening balance of retained earnings. The
Company did not have any material impact on the financial statements on application of the above standard.
(e) Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets which are subject to depreciation or amortisation are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the
amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher
of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are
grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of
the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered an
impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(f) Trade Receivable


Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method, less provision for impairment, if any.
(g) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instruments of another entity.
Investments and other financial assets
(i) Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through Other Comprehensive Income or through
profit or loss) and
• those measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual
terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or Other Comprehensive
Income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment
is held. For investments in equity instruments in subsidiaries, the Company has made an irrevocable election at
the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through Other Comprehensive
Income.
The Company reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets
changes.
(ii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures financial assets at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
assets not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of
the financial assets. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed
in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Company’s business model for managing the
asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the
Company classifies its debt instruments:
Amortised cost
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments
of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently
measured at amortised cost is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest
income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the
assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in
the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest
revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in profit and loss. When the financial asset
is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or
loss and recognised in other gains/ (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other
income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVTPL. A gain or loss on a
debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in Statement of
Profit and Loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other
income.
Equity investments
The Company subsequently measures all equity investments in subsidiaries at fair value. The Company’s
management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in Other Comprehensive
70
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Income, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss. Dividends from
such investments are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss as other income when the Company’s right to
receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not
reported separately from other changes in fair value.
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at
amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase
in credit risk.
For trade receivables only, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109- ‘Financial
Instruments’, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
(iv) Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised only when:
• the Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
• retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where
the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial
asset is not derecognised. Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not
retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is
continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Income recognition
Interest income
Interest income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective
interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the
financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the
Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument
(for example prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider the expected credit losses.
Dividend
Dividends are recognised in profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable
that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company, and the amount of the
dividend can be measured reliably.
(h) Contributed equity
Equity shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are
shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax from the proceeds.
(i) Financial liabilities
(i) Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definition of a financial liability and an
equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting
all of its liabilities.
(ii) Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables,
net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank
overdrafts and financial guarantee contracts.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(iii) Subsequent measurement


The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Borrowings
Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction
costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the
borrowings using the effective interest rate method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent
that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn. In this case, the fee is deferred until the
drawdown occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be
drawdown, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the
facility to which it relates.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary
course of business from suppliers. Those payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one
year or less otherwise they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade and other payables are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Financial guarantee contracts
Financial guarantee contracts are recognised as a financial liability at the time when guarantee is issued.
The liability is initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at the higher of the amount determined in
accordance with Ind AS 37 and the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation, where appropriate.
Where guarantees in relation to loans of subsidiaries are provided for no compensation, the fair values are
credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss over the guarantee period using the systematic method. Financial
guarantee contract issued by the Company are measured at fair value at the time of issue of guarantee or
amendment in terms of guarantees.
(iv) Derecognition
Borrowings are removed from the Balance Sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been
extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets
transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss as other gains / (losses). When an existing
financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of
an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition
of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts
is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement
of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision
of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability
becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the entity does not classify the liability as current, if the
lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statements for issue, not to
demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
(j) Borrowing costs
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its
intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get 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 capitalisation.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
(k) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events;
it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably
estimated.
72
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle
the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a
pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which
will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within
the control of the Company. A present obligation that arises from past events but it is not recognised because it is
not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or
the amount of obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability is termed as contingent liability.
Contingent Assets
A contingent asset is disclosed, where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
(l) Foreign currency translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary
economic environment in which the Company operates (‘the functional currency’). The financial statements are
presented in ‘Indian Rupees’ (`), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.
(ii) Transactions and balances
(a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
(b) All exchange differences arising on reporting on foreign currency monetary items at rates different from
those at which they were initially recorded are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(c) In respect of foreign exchange differences arising on restatement or settlement of long term foreign
currency monetary items, the Company has availed the option available in Ind AS 101 to continue the
policy adopted for accounting for exchange differences arising from translation of long-term foreign
currency monetary items outstanding as on March 31, 2016, wherein:
•  oreign exchange differences on account of depreciable asset, are adjusted in the cost of
F
depreciable asset and would be depreciated over the balance life of asset.
• In other cases, foreign exchange difference is accumulated in “foreign currency monetary item
translation difference account” and amortised over the balance period of such long term asset /
liabilities.
(d) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency are stated at the rates prevailing on the date of
the transactions / exchange rate at which transaction is actually effected.
(m) Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Other Income
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, and represents amount receivable
for goods supplied, stated net of discounts, returns and value added taxes.
(i) Sale of energy
The Company has adopted Ind AS 115 using cumulative effect method of initially applying this standard
recognised at the date of initial application (i.e. April 01, 2018).
Revenue from operations comprises of sale of power. Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflect the
consideration for which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transfer of power (goods / service)
to the customer.
Revenue from sale of power is accounted for in accordance with tariff provided in Power Purchase Agreement
(PPA) read with the regulations of Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) and no significant
uncertainty as to the measurability or collectability exist.
There is no impact on the adoption of the standard in the financial statement as the Company’s revenue
primarily comprised of revenue from sale of power and the recognition criteria of this revenue stream is largely
unchanged by adoption of Ind AS 115.
(ii) Service income
Service income represents income from support services recognised as per the terms of the service agreements
entered into with the respective parties.
73
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(iii) Income on Generation Based Incentive


Income on Generation Based incentive is accounted on accrual basis considering eligibility for project for
availing the incentive.
(n) Employee benefits
Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within 12
months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect of
employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid
when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance
sheet.
Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for earned leave and sick leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end
of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting
period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the
reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result
of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional
right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual
settlement is expected to occur.
Post employment obligations
The Company operates the following post-employment schemes:
- defined benefit plans such as gratuity
- defined contribution plans such as provident fund and superannuation fund.
Gratuity obligations
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of
the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit
obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in Rupees is determined by discounting the estimated
future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have
terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation
and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are
recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in Other Comprehensive Income. They are included in Retained
Earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are
recognised immediately in Profit or Loss as past service cost.
Defined contribution plans
Provident fund
The Company pays provident fund contributions to publicly administered provident funds as per local regulations. The
Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted
for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are
due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future
payments is available.
Superannuation
Certain employees of the Company are participants in a defined contribution plan wherein, the Company has no
further obligations to the plan beyond its monthly contributions which are contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of
which is invested with Reliance Life Insurance Company Limited.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(o) Employee stock option scheme (ESOS)


ESOS Scheme
The employees of the Company are entitled for grant of stock options (equity shares), based on the eligibility
criteria set in ESOS Plan of the Company.
The fair value of options granted under the ESOS Plan is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a
corresponding increase in equity. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period
over which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises
its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service
conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding
adjustment to equity.
ESOS Trust
The Company’s ESOS Scheme is administered through Reliance Power ESOS Trust (“RPET”). The Company treats
the RPET as its extension and shares held by RPET are treated as treasury shares and accordingly RPET has been
consolidated in the Company’s books.
(p) Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a
sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at
the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are
presented separately from the other assets in the balance sheet. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held
for sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the balance sheet.
A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and
that represents a separate major line of business, exclusively with a view to sale.
The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(q) Income tax
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based
on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities
attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to
situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate
on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, on temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises
from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time
of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is determined
using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and
are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is
settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
and liabilities. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to
offset and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in
Other Comprehensive Income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in Other Comprehensive
Income or directly in equity.
(r) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand,
demand deposits with banks, short-term balances (with an original maturity of three months or less from date
of acquisition), highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are
subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

(s) Earnings per share


Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing:
- the profit attributable to owners of the Company
- by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year.
Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into
account:
- the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential equity shares,
and
- the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the
conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(t) Cash flow statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions
of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.
(u) Segment reporting
The operating segment has been identified and reported taking into account its internal financial reporting, performance
evaluation and organisational structure of its operations. Operating segment is reported in the manner evaluated by
Board, considered as Chief Operating Decision Maker under Ind AS 108 “Operating Segments”.
(v) Business combinations
Business combinations involving entities that are controlled by the Company are accounted for using the pooling of
interests method as follows:
(i) The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts.
(ii) No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognise any new assets or liabilities.
(iii) Adjustments are only made to harmonise accounting policies.
(iv) The financial information in the financial statements in respect of prior periods is restated as if the business
combination had occurred from the beginning of the preceding period in the financial statements, irrespective
of the actual date of the combination. However, where the business combination had occurred after that date,
the prior period information is restated only from that date.
(v) The balance of the retained earnings appearing in the financial statements of the transferor is aggregated with
the corresponding balance appearing in the financial statements of the transferee or is adjusted against General
Reserve.
(vi) The identities of the reserves are preserved and the reserves of the transferor become the reserves of the
transferee.
(vii) The difference, if any, between the amounts recorded as share capital issued plus any additional consideration
in the form of cash or other assets and the amount of share capital of the transferor is transferred to capital
reserve and is presented separately from other capital reserves.
(w) Dividends
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the
discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting
period.
(x) Exceptional items
The Company discloses certain financial information both including / excluding exceptional items. The presentation
of information excluding exceptional items allows a better understanding of underlying operating performance of
the Company and provides consistency with the Company’s internal management reporting. Exceptional items are
identified by virtue of either size or nature so as to facilitate the comparison with prior period and to assess underlying
trends in financial performance of the Company.

2.2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements


The preparation of the financial statements under Ind AS requires management to take decisions and make estimates and
assumptions that may impact the value of revenues, costs, assets and liabilities and the related disclosures concerning
the items involved as well as contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. Estimates and judgements are
continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition,
seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
Estimation of uncertainties relating to the global health pandemic from COVID-19:
The Company has considered the possible effects that may result from the pandemic relating to COVID-19 on the carrying
amounts of receivables, unbilled revenues, goodwill, tangible and intangible assets. In developing the assumptions relating
to the possible future uncertainties in the global economic conditions because of this pandemic, the Company, as at the
date of approval of these financial statements has used internal and external sources of information on the expected future
performance of the Company. The Company has performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used and based on
current estimates expects the carrying amount of these assets will be recovered. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company
financial statements may differ from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial statements.
(a) Useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment
The Company has estimated its useful lives of wind power assets based on the expected wear and tear, industry
trends etc. In actual, the wear and tear can be different. When the useful lives differ from the original estimated
useful lives, the Company will adjust the estimated useful lives accordingly. It is possible that the estimates made
based on existing experience are different to the actual outcomes within the next financial period and could cause a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of Property, Plant and Equipment.
(b) Income taxes
There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain and would get finalised
on completion of assessment by tax authorities. Where the final tax outcome is different from the amounts that were
initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such
determination is made.
The Company is eligible to claim tax holiday on income generated from wind power generation. The deferred tax
on temporary differences which are reversing after the tax holiday period have been estimated considering future
projections and Company’s plan to start claiming tax holiday in certain years. It is possible that this estimate may
be different to the actual outcome within the next financial periods and could cause material adjustments to the
deferred tax recognised in financial statements. (Refer note 14)
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the same can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the
amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable
profits together with future tax planning strategies.
(c) Fair value measurement and valuation process
The Company measured its investments in equity shares of subsidiaries at fair value and certain financial assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes.
The fair values of investments in subsidiaries are not quoted in an active market and are determined by using
valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples and discounted cash flows. The models used to determine fair
values including estimates / judgements involved are validated and periodically reviewed by the management. The
inputs used in the valuation models include unobservable data of the Companies which are categorised within level
III fair value measurements. They are based on historical experience, technical evaluation and other factors, including
expectations of future events. Considering the level of estimation involved and unobservable inputs, the Company
has engaged a third party qualified valuer to perform the valuation. Based on the actual performance of respective
subsidiaries project, the inputs considered for valuation may vary materially and could cause a material adjustment to
carrying amount of investments. (Refer note 15)
(d) Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment of financial assets and credit risk exposure. ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal)
recognised during the year is recognised as income / expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss (P&L).
(e) Estimation of employee benefit obligation
Refer note 2.1 (n).

6. Project status of Subsidiaries
(a) Coastal Andhra Power Limited (CAPL)
CAPL was incorporated to develop an imported coal-based Ultra Mega Power Project (UMPP) of 3,960 MW
capacity located in Krishnapatnam, District Nellore, in the State of Andhra Pradesh.
The project was awarded to Reliance Power Limited (RPL) through international tariff-based competitive bidding
process managed by Power Finance Corporation (PFC), the nodal agency appointed by Ministry of Power. PFC was
required to set up special purpose vehicles for each UMPP and to undertake initial development of UMPPs in terms
of land acquisition and key clearances and thereafter select a developer for development, financing, construction and
operation of the UMPP. On emerging successful, 100% ownership of CAPL was transferred by PFC to RPL pursuant
to execution of a Share Purchase Agreement (SPA); whereafter RPL became the Parent Company of CAPL.
CAPL had entered into a firm price fuel supply agreement which envisaged supply of coal from Indonesia with RCRPL,
a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Government of Indonesia introduced a new regulation in September,
2010 which prohibited sale of coal, including sale to affiliate companies, at below Benchmark Price which is linked
to international coal prices and required adjustment of sale price every 12 months. This regulation also mandated
to align all existing long-term coal supply contracts with the new regulations within one year i.e. by September,
2011. The new Indonesian regulations led to steep increase in price of coal imported from Indonesia, making the
Krishnapatnam UMPP unviable and as a result CAPL could not draw down already tied-up debt for the project. The
said issue was communicated to the power procurers of the UMPP with a view to enter into mutual discussions to
arrive at a suitable solution to the satisfaction of all the stakeholders. The impact of new Indonesian regulation, being
an industry-wide issue which impacted all imported coal-based projects in the Country, was also taken up with GoI
through the Association of Power Producers.
Since no resolution could be arrived, CAPL invoked the dispute resolution provision of the PPA. The procurers also
issued a notice for termination of the PPA and raised a demand for liquidated damages of ` 40,000 lakhs.
CAPL filed a petition before the Hon’ble High Court at Delhi inter-alia for interim relief under Section 9 of the
Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The single judge of the High Court at Delhi vide order dated July 02, 2012
dismissed the petition and CAPL filed an appeal against the said order before the Division Bench of the High Court at
Delhi. The Division Bench dismissed the appeal on January 15, 2019 and consequently the PPA between procurers
90
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

and CAPL stood terminated. Thereafter, the procurers have encashed the Performance Bank Guarantees of ` 30,000
lakhs towards recovery of their liquidated damages claim.
CAPL has filed a petition before the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) for referring the dispute
to arbitration and the petition is currently pending adjudication by CERC. This has been shown as receivable from
procurers (Refer note 3.5 (e)).
As per the clause 6.7.1 of SPA among PFC, RPL and CAPL, on termination of PPA pursuant to Article 3.3.2 of PPA,
PFC has a right to seek transfer of ownership of CAPL to PFC / entity designated by PFC. Accordingly, RPL has
requested PFC to initiate process of CAPL transfer of ownership of CAPL and invite a procurers’ meeting in that regard
to decide on modalities of transfer.
(b) Samalkot Power Limited (SMPL)
(i) With respect to 1508 Mega Watt (MW) (754 MW X 2) Plant
There is a continued uncertainty regarding availability of natural gas in the country for operation of the plant,
and while SMPL is actively pursuing with relevant authorities for securing gas linkages / supply at commercially
viable prices / generation opportunities, it is also evaluating alternative arrangements / approaches, including
marketing of equipment pursuant to an agreement with US-EXIM, to deal with the situation. SMPL is confident
of arriving at a positive resolution to the foregoing in the foreseeable future and therefore, the carrying amount
of capital work in progress is considered recoverable.
ii) With respect to 754 MW Plant
The Company, had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Government of Bangladesh
(GoB) for developing a gas-based project of a 3000 MW capacity in a phased manner. Pursuant to the above,
Reliance Bangladesh LNG and Power Limited (RBLPL), subsidiary of the Company has taken steps to conclude
a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) for supply of 718 MW (net) power from a combined cycle
gas-based power plant to be set up at Meghnaghat near Dhaka in Bangladesh.
RBLPL has signed all the project agreements (Power Purchase Agreement, Implementation Agreement, Land
Lease Agreement and Gas Supply Agreement) with Government of Bangladesh authorities on September 01
2019, and also inducted a strategic partner JERA Power International (Netherlands) - a subsidiary of JERA Co.
Inc. (Japan) to invest 49% equity in RBLPL on September 02, 2019. Samsung C&T (South Korea) (SCTK)
has been appointed as the EPC contractor for the Bangladesh project. SMPL has signed an Equipment Supply
Contract with SCTK on March 11, 2020 to sell equipment of one module.
Considering the aforesaid developments, management of the Company is confident that RBLPL will be able
to execute the project and the Company will be able to realize the proceeds for transfer of one Module in
the near future. The proceeds from the sale of first module will be sufficient to repay a major portion of the
outstanding loan.
Having regard to the above plans, and the continued financial support from the Company, the management
believes that SMPL would be able to meet its financial and other obligations in the foreseeable future.
Accordingly, the financial statements of SMPL have been prepared on a going concern basis.
7. Applicability of NBFC Regulations
The Company, based on the objects given in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, its role in construction and
operation of power plants through subsidiaries and other considerations, has been legally advised that it is not covered under
the provisions of Non-Banking Financial Company as defined in the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 and accordingly, is not
required to be registered under section 45 IA of the said Act.
8. Status of Dadri Project
The Company proposed to develop a 7,480 MW gas-based power project to be located at Dadri, District Hapur, Uttar
Pradesh in the year 2003. The Government of Uttar Pradesh (the GoUP) in the year 2004 acquired 2,100 acres of land
and conveyed the same to the Company in the year 2005, However, certain land owners challenged the acquisition of land
by the GoUP for the project before the Hon’ble Allahabad High Court. The Hon’ble Allahabad High Court quashed a part
of land acquisition proceedings. Subsequently, in the appeals filed by the Company and land owners against the findings of
the Hon’ble Allahabad High Court, the Hon’ble Supreme Court held the land acquisition proceedings as lapsed but upheld
the right of the Company to recover the amount paid in any other proceeding. The Company has represented to the
GoUP seeking compensation towards cost incurred on the land acquisition as well as other incidental expenditure thereto.
Considering the above facts, the Company has classified assets related to the Dadri project under the head ‘Assets classified
as held for sale’. During the year ended March 31, 2020 out of prudence The Company has fully provided for receivables
of ` 15,005 lakhs against the Dadri project. (Refer note 22(b)).The Company has classified the project as discontinued
operation.

(iii) Sensitivity analysis


The sensitivity of the provision for defined benefit obligation to changes in the weighted principal assumptions is:

Particulars Impact on closing balance of provision for


defined benefit obligation
Change in assumptions Increase in assumptions Decrease in assumptions
March March March March March March
31, 2020 31, 2019 31, 2020 31, 2019 31, 2020 31, 2019
Discount rate 0.50% 0.50% -2.43% -2.28% 2.55% 2.39%
Rate of increase in 0.50% 0.50% 2.51% 2.37% -2.42% -2.28%
compensation levels
The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant.
In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. While calculating
the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present
value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the
reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.
The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the
prior period.
(iv) The above defined benefit gratuity plan was administrated 100% by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).
(v) Defined benefit liability and employer contributions
The Company will pay demand raised by LIC towards gratuity liability on time to time basis to eliminate the deficit
in defined benefit plan.
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 4.98 years (March 31, 2019 – 4.79 years).
(vi) The Company has seconded certain employees to the subsidiaries. As per the terms of the secondment, liability
towards salaries, provident fund and leave encashment will be provided and paid by the respective subsidiaries
and gratuity will be paid / provided by the Company. Accordingly, provision for gratuity includes cost in respect
of seconded employees.
(vii) The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to bond yields; if plan assets under
perform this yield, this will create a deficit.

(b) Fair value hierarchy


This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments
that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values
are disclosed in the financial statements. The Company has not disclosed the fair values of financial instruments
such as short-term trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, Fixed deposits, Security deposits,
etc. as carrying value is reasonable approximation of the fair values. To provide an indication about the reliability of
the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels
prescribed under the Indian Accounting Standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table:

(e) Valuation technique used to determine fair values
The fair value of financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.
The carrying amount of current financial assets and liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to
their short term nature.
The fair value of the long-term borrowings with floating-rate of interest is not impacted due to interest rate changes,
and will be evaluated for their carrying amounts based on any change in the under-lying credit risk of the Company
borrowing (since the date of inception of the loans).
For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amount is equal to the fair values.

103
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Note
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-counter
derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as
possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument
is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
This is the case for unlisted equity securities which are included in level 3.
There are no transfers between any levels during the year.
The Company’s policy is to recognise transfer into and transfer out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting
period.
16. Financial risk management
The Company’s business activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risks and credit risk.

Risk Exposure arising from Measurement Management


Credit Risk Cash and cash equivalents, trade Ageing analysis Diversification of bank
receivables, financial assets measured at deposits, letters of credit

Market risk – interest rate Long-term borrowings at variable rates Sensitivity analysis Un hedged
Sensitivity analysis
Market risk- price risk Unquoted investment in equity shares - -
of subsidiaries – not exposed to price risk
fluctuations
(a) Credit risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligation
resulting in a financial loss to the Company. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, financial assets carried
at amortised cost and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to trade customers
including outstanding receivables.
Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer
contract, leading to a financial loss.
The Company’s credit risk arises from accounts receivable balances on sale of electricity is based on tariff rate
approved by electricity regulator and inter-corporate deposits/loans are given to subsidiaries incorporated as special
purpose vehicle for power projects awarded to the Company. The credit risk is very low as the sale of electricity
is based on the terms of the PPA which has been approved by the Regulator. With respect to inter corporate
deposits/ loans given to subsidiaries, the Company will be able to control the cash flows of those subsidiaries as
the subsidiaries are wholly owned by the Company.
For deposits with banks and financial institutions, only highly rated banks/institutions are accepted. Generally all
policies surrounding credit risk have been managed at company level. The Company’s policy to manage this risk is
to invest in debt securities that have a good credit rating.
(b) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to
close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company’s treasury function
maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.
In respect of its existing operations, the Company funds its activities primarily through long-term loans secured
against each power plant. In addition, each of the operating plants has working capital loans available to it which
are renewed annually, together with certain intra-group loans. The Company’s objective in relation to its existing
operating business is to maintain sufficient funding to allow the plants to operate at an optimal level.

Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on
the basis of expected cash flows. This is generally carried out at the operating subsidiaries level of the Company
in accordance with practice and limits set by the Company. These limits vary by location to take into account
the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates. In addition, the Company’s liquidity management policy
involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these
monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintained debt
financing plans.
Periodic budgets and rolling forecasts are prepared at the level of operating subsidiaries as regular practice and in
accordance with limits specified by the Company. There is delay/ default in repayment of loans for ` 71,269 lakhs
as at the end of the financial year. The Company has been pursuing proposed strategic transactions/ sale of assets
and overall financial restructuring, when executed, would make available the required liquidity for the continuing
business and would also provide an extended maturity period for repayment of restructured balance debt.
Maturities of financial liabilities
The amounts disclosed below are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal
their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

(c) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
volatility of prices in the financial markets. Market risk can be further segregated as: a) Foreign currency risk and
b) Interest rate risk.
(i) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company holds monetary assets in the form
of investments in US Dollar. Further it has long term monetary liabilities which are in US dollar other than
its functional currency.
While the Company has direct exposure to foreign exchange rate changes on the price of non-Indian
Rupee-denominated securities and borrowings, it may also be indirectly affected by the impact of foreign
exchange rate changes on the earnings of companies in which the Company invests. For that reason,
the below sensitivity analysis may not necessarily indicate the total effect on the Company’s net assets
attributable to holders of equity shares of future movements in foreign exchange rates.

(Refer note 2.1(l).
(ii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term
borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s
borrowings at variable rate were mainly denominated in Rupees.
The Company’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest
rate risk as defined in Ind AS-107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate
because of a change in market interest rates.
• Interest rate risk exposure
The exposure of the Company’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are
as follows:
` in lakhs
Particulars March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019

` 107,306 lakhs to the Company.
(b) Exceptional items:
During the year, the Company has created provision against advances aggregating to ` 19,456 lakhs and has

order dated October 15, 2010 wherein the Company is permitted to offset any expenses or losses, which in the
opinion of the Board of Directors are beyond the control of the Company. Had such provision of expenses not
been met from General Reserve, the exceptional item for the year ended March 31, 2019 would have increased
by ` 101,702 lakhs and as a consequential effect of this, loss after tax for the year would have been higher
by ` 101,702 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2019 and General Reserve would have been higher by an
equivalent amount. This accounting treatment as per Scheme is considered to override the provisions of Ind AS 1

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

26. COVID-19 Pandemic has caused unprecedented economic disruption globally and in India. The Company is sensitive about the
impact of the Pandemic, not only on the human life but on businesses and industrial activity across the globe, which will be
realised only over next few months. The Company has been monitoring the situation closely and has taken proactive measures
to comply with various directions / regulations / guidelines issued by the Government and local bodies to ensure safety of
workforce across all its plants and offices. The Company has made initial assessment of the likely adverse impact on economic
environment in general and operational and financial risks on account of COVID-19. Vide notification dated March 24 2020
issued by Ministry of Home Affairs a nation-wide lockdown was announced to contain COVID-19 outbreak and the same
has been progressively extended later. However, Power generation, transmission & distribution units, being essential services,
are allowed to continue operation during the period of lockdown. So far, the Company has been able to sustain its power
plant operations and honour commitments under the various Power Purchase Agreements. There has been a sharp decline in
the electricity demand, by 20 to 25%, primarily from industrial and commercial consumer segments, arising from lockdown
measures announced by the Government. The Power Ministry has clarified on April 6, 2020 that despite lower power offtake
due to sharp reduction in demand, Discoms will have to comply with the obligation to pay fixed capacity charges as per PPA.
Further, the Reserve Bank of India has granted relief to borrowers by way of moratorium of interest and principal installments
falling due to Indian banks and financial institutions till May 31, 2020. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will
impact the Company’s results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, among other things,
evolving impact on Discoms in terms of demand for electricity; consumption mix; resultant average tariff realisation; bill
collections from consumers; and support from respective State Governments and banks & financial institutions, including those
focused on power sector financing.
27. The Company lease assets primarily consists of office premises which are of short term lease with the term of twelve months
or less and low value leases. For these short term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an
expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight line basis over the term of lease.
During the year, the Company has recognised ` 47 lakhs as rent expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss (March 31,
2019 ` 98 lakhs).
28. The figures for the previous year are re-casted / re-grouped, wherever necessary.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

1) General Information
Reliance Power Limited (“the Parent Company” or “the Company”) together with all of its subsidiaries (“the Group”) and
associates is primarily engaged in the business of generation of power. The projects under development include coal, gas,
hydro, wind and solar based energy projects. The portfolio of the Group also includes Ultra Mega Power Projects (UMPPs).
The Parent Company is a Public Limited Company and its equity shares are listed on two recognised stock exchanges in India
and is incorporated and domiciled in India under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The registered office of the Parent
Company is located at Reliance Centre, Ground Floor, 19, Walchand Hirachand Marg, Ballard Estate, Mumbai - 400001.
These consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company on May
08, 2020.
2) Significant accounting policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements
2.1 Basis of preparation, measurement and significant accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the
Group and associates.
(a) Basis of preparation of consolidated financial statements
Compliance with Ind AS
The consolidated financial statements of the Group and its associates have been prepared in accordance with the Indian
Accounting Standards (“Ind AS”) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) to the extent applicable.
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in ‘Indian Rupees’, which is also the Parent Company’s functional
currency. All amounts are rounded off to the nearest lakhs, unless otherwise stated.
Historical cost convention
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the
following:
• Certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value;
• Assets held for sale – measured at fair value less cost to sell; and
• Defined benefit plans – plan assets that are measured at fair value
Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants on the measurement date. The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the
circumstances and for which sufficient data is available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable
inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are
categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the
fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement
is directly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement
is unobservable
Current vis-à-vis non-current classification
The assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet are classified on a “current/non-current basis”, with separate
reporting of assets held for sale and liabilities. Current assets, which include cash and cash equivalents, are the assets
that are intended to be realised, sold or consumed during the normal operating cycle of the Group or in the 12 months
following the balance sheet date; current liabilities are liabilities that are expected to be settled during the normal
operating cycle of the Group or within the 12 months following the close of the financial year. The deferred tax assets
and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(b) Principles of consolidation


I. Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed
to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power to direct the relevant activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on
which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date on which control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Parent Company.
The financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries are consolidated by combining like items of
assets, liabilities, income and expenses and cash flows after fully eliminating intra group balances and intra group
transactions resulting in unrealised profit or loss in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standard (“Ind AS”) 110
“Consolidated Financial Statements” as referred to in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and
as amended from time to time. The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform Accounting Policies
for the like transactions and other events in similar circumstances and are presented in the same manner as far as
possible, as the standalone financial statements of the Parent Company.
Share of Non-controlling Interest in net profit or loss of consolidated subsidiaries for the year is identified and adjusted
against income of the Group in order to arrive at the net income attributable to the equity shareholders of the
Company. Non-controlling interests and net assets of the subsidiaries are identified and presented in the consolidated
statement of profit and loss, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated balance sheet respectively
as a separate item from liabilities and the shareholders’ equity.
II. Associates
Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is
generally the case where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates
are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost which includes
transaction costs.
III. Equity method
Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost, which includes transaction
costs and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group’s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses and other
comprehensive income (OCI) of the equity accounted investees. Dividends received or receivable from the associates
are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group’s share of losses in an equity-accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity,
including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has
incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity.
Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in these
entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the
asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
The carrying amount of equity accounted investments are tested for impairment.
IV. Changes in ownership interests
Change in ownership interests for transaction with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control are
treated as the transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment
between the carrying amounts of the controlling and Non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in
the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of adjustment to Non-controlling interests and any consideration
paid or received is recognised within equity. Gains or losses on disposals of control in subsidiaries to Non-controlling
interests are recorded in equity.
When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control, joint
control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change
in carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes
of subsequent accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any
amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income (OCI) in respect of that entity are accounted for as if
the Group had directly disposed off the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised
in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a
proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(c) Property, plant and equipment (including capital work-in-progress)


(i) Freehold land is carried at cost. All Items of property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at cost net of
recoverable taxes, duties, trade discounts and rebates, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss,
if any. The cost of PPE comprises of its purchase price, capitalised borrowing costs and adjustment arising
for exchange rate variations attributable to the assets (Note 2.1(n)(ii) below), including any cost directly
attributable to bringing the assets to their working condition for their intended use.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted
for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the
Statement of Profit and Loss during the year in which they are incurred.
Expenditure incurred on assets which are not ready for their intended use comprising direct cost, related
incidental expenses and attributable borrowing cost are disclosed under capital work-in-progress.
Spare parts are recognised when they meet the definition of PPE, otherwise, such items are classified as
inventory.
Any gain or loss on disposal/ discarding of an item of PPE is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Depreciation methods, estimated useful life and residual value
Depreciation on PPE is provided to the extent of depreciable amount on straight line method (SLM) based
on useful life of the following assets as prescribed in Part C of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

Particulars Estimated useful life


Buildings 3 to 60 years
Plant and equipment 15 to 40 years
Furniture and fixtures 10 years
Office equipment 5 years
Computers 3 years
Different useful life has been determined based on internal assessment and independent technical evaluation
for the following assets which are not covered above.

Particulars Estimated useful life


Motor vehicles 5 years
Coal Mine Heavy Earth Moving and Mining Equipment in SPL 30 years
Plant and equipment of DSPPL and RSTEPL 25 years
Depreciation on additions is calculated pro rata basis from the following month of addition.
Lease hold land is amortised over the lease period from the date of receipt of advance possession or
execution of lease deed, whichever is earlier, except leasehold land for coal mining, which is amortised over
the period of mining rights. In SPL, freehold land acquired for coal mining is amortised over the period of
mining rights, considering the same cannot be put to any other purpose other than mining.
In respect of additions or extensions forming an integral part of existing assets and insurance spares,
including incremental cost arising on account of translation of foreign currency liabilities for acquisition of
PPE, depreciation is provided as aforesaid over the residual life of the respective assets.
Estimated useful life, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed annually, taking into account
commercial and technological obsolescence as well as normal wear and tear and adjusted prospectively, if
considered appropriate.
(ii) Deposits, payments / liabilities made provisionally towards compensation, rehabilitation and other expenses
relatable to land in possession are treated as cost of land.
(iii) Construction stores have been valued at weighted average cost.
(iv) PPE is derecognised when asset is retired or sold.
(d) Mining properties under Property, plant and equipment (in SPL)
(i) Overburden removal costs:
Removal of overburden and other waste material, referred to as “Stripping Activity”, is necessary to
extract the coal reserves in case of open pit mining operations. The stripping ratio, as approved by the
125
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

regulatory authority, for the life of the mine is obtained by dividing the estimated quantity of overburden
by the estimated quantity of mineable coal reserve to be extracted over the life of the mine. This ratio is
periodically reviewed and changes, if any, are accounted for prospectively.
The overburden removal costs are included in mining properties under the PPE and amortised based on
stripping ratio on the quantity of coal excavated. Overburden removal cost includes cost of fuel, power
related to the equipments, direct labour, other direct expenditure and appropriate portion of variable and
fixed overhead expenditure.
(ii) Mine closure obligation
The liability to meet the obligation of mine closure has been measured at the present value of the
management’s best estimate based on the mine closure plan in the proportion of total area exploited to the
total area of the mine as a whole. These costs are updated annually during the life of the mine to reflect
the developments in mining activities.
The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in provision due
to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
The mine closure obligation cost has been included in mining properties under Property, plant and equipment
and amortised over the life of the mine on a unit of production basis.
(iii) Mine development expenditure
Expenditure incurred on development of coal mine is grouped under capital work-in-progress till the coal
mine is ready for its intended use. Once the mine is ready for its intended use, such mine development
expenditure is capitalised and included in mining properties under the PPE.
Mine development expenditure is amortised over the life of the mine on a unit of production basis.
(e) Intangible assets
(i) Goodwill on acquisition of the subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is not amortised but it
is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it
might be impaired and is carried at cost. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying
amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
(ii) Intangible assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortisation/
depletion and impairment loss, if any. The cost comprises of purchase price, borrowing costs and any cost
directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use.
(iii) Expenditure incurred on acquisition of intangible assets, which are not ready to use at the reporting date is
disclosed under “Intangible assets under development”.
(iv) Mining right represents directly attributable cost (other than the land cost) incurred for obtaining the mining
rights for a period of 30 years.
(v) Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of intangible asset is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Amortisation method and period
Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. The estimated useful life, residual
value and amortisation methods are reviewed periodically at each annual reporting date, with the effect of any
changes in the estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Computer software is amortised over an estimated useful life of 3 years. Intangible assets include expenditure
incurred for laying pipeline towards additional water supply. As the pipeline is estimated to be used over the life
of the project, the cost incurred towards right is amortised over the term of the power purchase agreement.
In SPL, mining rights are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of 30 years i.e., the period over which
SPL has the right to carry out mining activities.
(f) Impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment or more
frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. Other assets which are
subject to depreciation or amortisation are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverable value is higher of net selling price and
value in use. An impairment loss is recognised when carrying cost of the asset exceeds its recoverable value.
An impairment loss is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified as
impaired. Impairment loss recognised in prior accounting period is increased / reversed (for the assets other than
Goodwill) where there is change in the estimate of recoverable value. Such a reversal is made only to the extent
126
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

that the assets carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of
depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss has been recognised.
(g) Inventories
Inventories of tools, stores, spare parts, consumable supplies and fuel are valued at lower of weighted average
cost, which includes all non-refundable duties and charges incurred in bringing the goods to their present location
and condition or net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of
business less estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
In case of coal stock, the measured stock is based on a verification process adopted and the variation between
measured stock and book stock is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.
(h) Trade Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment.
(i) Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability
or equity instruments of another entity. Financial instrument also includes derivative contracts such as foreign
currency foreign exchange forward contracts.
Investment and Other Financial Assets
(i) Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or
through profit or loss) and
• those measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the business model of the Group for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in statement of profit and loss or
OCI.
The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets
changes.
(ii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset
not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the
financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in
Statement of Profit and Loss.
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the
asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into which the
Group classifies its debt instruments:
Amortised cost
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely
payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that
is subsequently measured at amortised cost is recognised in the Statement of profit and Loss when the asset
is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the
effective interest rate method.
Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the
assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at FVOCI. Movements in
the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest
revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss. When
the financial asset is derecognised, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from
other equity to profit or loss and recognised in other gains / (losses). Interest income from these financial
assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
127
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)


Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on
a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the
Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is
included in other income. In addition, the Group may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise
meets amortised cost or FVOCI criteria, as FVPL. However, such election is allowed only if, doing so reduces
or eliminates measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘the accounting mismatch’).
Impairment of Financial Assets
(iii)
The Group and its associates assess on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its
assets carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been
a significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables only, the Group and its associates measure the expected credit loss associated with
its trade receivables based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the
entity operates or any other appropriate basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether
there has been a significant increase in credit risk.
Derecognition of Financial Assets
(iv)
A financial asset is derecognised only when the Group:
• has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
• retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual
obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the Group has transferred an asset, it evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and
rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the
Group has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial
asset is not derecognised. Where the Group has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially
all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Group has
not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Group retains control of the financial asset, the asset
is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
(v) Income recognition
Interest income
Interest income from debt instruments is recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective
interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life
of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset. While calculating the effective
interest rate, the Group estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the
financial instrument (for example: prepayment, extension, call and similar options) but does not consider
the expected credit losses.
Dividend
Dividends are recognised in statement of profit or loss only when the right to receive payment is established
and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Group, and the
amount of the dividend can be measured reliably.
Offsetting Financial instruments
(vi)
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there
is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net
basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be
contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of
default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counterparty.
Derivative Financial Instruments
(vii)
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are
subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. Further gain / (losses)
arising on settlement and fair value change therein are generally recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss.
(j) Contributed equity
Equity shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options
are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax from the proceeds.
128
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(k) Financial liabilities


(i) Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified either as financial liabilities or as equity in
accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definition of a financial liability and an
equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting
all of its liabilities.
(ii) Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of borrowings and payables, net of
directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, borrowings including bank overdrafts, and
derivative financial instruments.
(iii) Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Borrowings
Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction
costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss / capital work-in-progress over
the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that
it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn. In this case, the fee is deferred until the drawdown
occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn, the
fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it
relates.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of
the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where there is a breach of a material provision
of a long term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period with the effect that the liability
becomes payable on demand on the reporting date, the Group does not classify the liability as current, if the
lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the consolidated financial statements for
issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach.
Trade and other payables
These amounts represent obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course
of business from the suppliers. Those payable are classified as the current liabilities if payment is due within one
year or less otherwise they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade and other payables are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
(iv) Derecognition
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished
or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities
assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same
lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an
exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new
liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(l) Borrowing costs
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a
qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its
intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are the assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get 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 capitalisation.
Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
(m)
Provision
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it
is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount has been reliably
estimated.
129
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle
the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value
is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the
liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from the past events, the existence
of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the Group. A present obligation that arises from past events but it is not recognised
because it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
Contingent Assets
A contingent asset is disclosed, where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
(n) Foreign currency transaction
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the consolidated financial statements of the Group are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates are presented in Indian Rupees which is also the
Parent Company’s functional currency. The functional currency for all the entities in the Group is Indian
Rupees except the following subsidiaries:-

(a) Reliance Natural Resources (Singapore) Pte Limited - USD


(b) Reliance Power Netherland BV - USD
(c) Reliance Power Holding FZC - AED
(d) Reliance Bangladesh LNG & Power Limited - BDT
(e) Reliance Bangladesh LNG Terminal Limited - BDT
(f) Reliance Chittagong Power Company Limited - BDT
(g) PT Heramba Coal Resources - USD
(h) PT Avaneesh Coal Resources - USD
(i) PT Sumukha Coal Services - USD
(j) PT Brayan Bintang Tiga Energi - Rupiah
(k) PT Sriwijaya Bintang Tiga Energi - Rupiah
In case of all foreign companies translation of financial statements to the presentation currency is done for
assets and liabilities using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and for revenue, expenses
and cash flow items using the average exchange rate for the reported period. Gain/ (loss) resulting from such
transactions are included in foreign currency translation reserve under other component of equity.
(ii) Transaction and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing
at the date of the transactions.
All exchange differences arising on restatement/ settlement of short-term foreign currency monetary items
at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded are recognised in the Statement of Profit
and Loss.
In respect of foreign exchange differences arising on revaluation or settlement of long-term foreign currency
monetary items, the Group has availed the option available in the Ind AS-101 to continue the policy adopted
in the previous GAAP for accounting of exchange differences arising from translation of long-term foreign
currency monetary items outstanding as on March 31, 2016, wherein:
• Foreign exchange differences on account of depreciable asset, is adjusted in the cost of depreciable
asset and would be depreciated over the balance life of an asset.
• In other cases, foreign exchange difference is accumulated in “foreign currency monetary item
translation difference account” and amortised over the balance period of such long-term asset /
liabilities.
(iii) Non-monetary items denominated in foreign currency are stated at the rates prevailing on the date of the
transactions/ exchange rate at which transaction is actually effected.
(o) Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Other Income
The Group has adopted Ind AS 115 using cumulative effect method with effect of initially applying this standard
recognised at the date of initial application (i.e. April 01, 2018).
130
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

The Group recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured at fair value of consideration
received or receivable, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have
been met for each of the Group’s activities, as described below. The Group bases its estimate on historical results,
taking into consideration the type of transactions and specifics of each arrangement.
(i) In RPSCL, revenue from sale of energy is recognised on an accrual basis as per the tariff rates approved
by Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) in accordance with the provisions of Power
Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (UPPCL). In case where final
tariff rates are yet to be approved / agreed, provisional tariff is adopted based on provisional tariff order
issued by UPERC. Further, the revenue is also recognised towards truing up of fixed charges as per the
petitions filed based on the principles enunciated in the PPA and UPERC (Terms & Condition of Generation
Tariff) Regulations, 2014.
Revenue from sale of energy referred to above includes fixed charges considered as minimum lease payments
in accordance with Ind AS 116 “Leases”which is apportioned between finance income and reduction of
finance lease receivables and finance Income is disclosed as ‘Income on assets given on finance lease” under
“Other Operating Income” (Refer Note 3.21). Revenue towards truing up of fixed charges is recognised as
operating income in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year of truing up. In case of difference between
the revenue recognised based on provisional tariff order/ petitions filed and final tariff order, minimum
lease payments is adjusted to the extent of difference for balance period of the lease to arrive at revised
internal rate of return based on which minimum lease payments is apportioned between finance income and
reduction of finance lease receivables.
(ii) In VIPL, revenue from sale of energy is recognised on an accrual basis as per the tariff rates approved by
MERC in accordance with the provisions of PPA with Adani Electricity Mumbai Limited with effect from
August 29, 2018, which was earlier with Reliance Infrastructure Limited (Rinfra). Further, revenue is also
recognised towards truing up of fixed charges and fuel adjustment charges as per the terms of PPA read
with Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) (Multi Year Tariff) Regulations.
(iii) In DSPPL, revenue from sale of energy is recognised on an accrual basis as per the tariff rates notified
by Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) in accordance with the provisions of PPA with Adani
Electricity Mumbai Limited with effect from August 29, 2018, which was earlier with Reliance Infrastructure
Limited (Rinfra).
(iv) In RSTEPL, revenue from sale of energy is recognised on an accrual basis and in accordance with the
provisions of PPA with NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Limited (NVVN) read with CERC regulations.
(v) In Parent Company, revenue from sale of energy of wind power project at Vashpet is recognised on an
accrual basis in accordance with the provisions of PPA/ sale arrangements with Adani Electricity Mumbai
Limited with effect from August 29, 2018, which was earlier with Reliance Infrastructure Limited (Rinfra)
read with the regulation of MERC. Income on Generation based incentive of wind power project at Vashpet
is accounted on an accrual basis considering eligibility of the project for availing the incentive.
(vi) In SPL, revenue from sale of energy is recognised when it is measurable and there is reasonable certainty
for collection, in accordance with the tariff provided in the PPA and considering the petitions filed with
regulatory authorities for tariff as per the terms of PPA.
(vii) The surcharge on late payment/ overdue trade receivables for sale of energy is recognised when no
significant uncertainty as to measurement and collectability exists.
(viii) Revenue from certified reduction units is recognised as per the terms and conditions agreed with the trustee
on future sale of certified emission reduction units.
(ix) For income recognition refer note 2.1(i)(v)
(p) Employee benefits
Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within
12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognised in respect
of employees’ services up to the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amounts expected to be
paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the
balance sheet.
Other long-term employee benefit obligations
The liabilities for earned leave and sick leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end
of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting
period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the
131
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result
of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in statement profit and loss.
The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional
right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual
settlement is expected to occur.
Post employee obligations
The Group operates the following post-employment schemes:
- defined benefit plans such as gratuity
- defined contribution plans such as provident fund and superannuation fund
Gratuity obligations
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of
the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit
obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in Rupees is determined by discounting the estimated
future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have
terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation
and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included as employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are
recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained
earnings in the consolidated statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are
recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.
Defined contribution plans
Provident fund
The Group pays provident fund contributions to publicly administered provident funds as per the local regulations. The
Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are accounted
for as defined contribution plans and the contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are
due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future
payments is available.
Superannuation fund
Certain employees of the Group are participants in a defined contribution plan. The Group has no further obligations
to the plan beyond its monthly contributions which are contributed to a trust fund, the corpus of which is invested
with Reliance Nippon Life Insurance Company Limited.
(q) Employee stock option scheme (ESOS)
ESOS Scheme
The employees of the Group are entitled for grant of stock option (equity shares), based on the eligibility criteria set
in ESOS plan of the Parent Company.
The fair value of options granted under the ESOS plan is recognised as an employee benefits expense with a
corresponding increase in equity. The total expense is recognised over the vesting period, which is the period over
which all of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied. At the end of each period, the entity revises its
estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions.
It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment
to equity.
ESOS Trust
The Parent Company’s ESOS Scheme is administered through Reliance Power ESOS Trust (“RPET”). The Group
treats the RPET as its extension and shares held by RPET are treated as treasury shares and accordingly, RPET is
consolidated in the Parent Company’s books.
(r) Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale
transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the
lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.
132
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Non-current assets classified as held for sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held for sale are
presented separately from the other assets in the balance sheet. The liabilities of a disposal group classified as held
for sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the balance sheet.
(s) Income taxes
The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based
on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities
attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Management
periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is
subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid
to the tax authorities.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, on temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred income tax is not accounted
for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that
at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss). Deferred income tax is
determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the end of the reporting
period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income
tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
and liabilities. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to
offset and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in
other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, respectively.
(t) Leases
The Group as a Lessor
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement
at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is (or contains) a lease if fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent
on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that
right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
These leases are analysed based on the situations and indicators set out in Ind AS-116 Leases in order to determine
whether they constitute operating leases or finance leases.
A finance lease is defined as a lease which transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the
ownership of the related asset to the lessee. All leases which do not comply with the definition of a finance lease
are classified as operating leases.
The following main factors are considered by the Group to assess if a lease transfers substantially all the risks and
rewards incidental to ownership: whether
(i) the lessor transfers ownership of the asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term;
(ii) the lessee has an option to purchase the asset and if so, the conditions applicable to exercising that option;
(iii) the lease term is for the major part of the economic life of the asset;
(iv) the asset is of a highly specialised nature; and
(v) the present value of minimum lease payments amounts to at least substantially all of the fair value of the
leased asset.
In case of finance lease, finance lease receivable is recognised to reflect the financing deemed to be granted by the
Group where it is considered as acting as lessor and its customers as lessees.
The Group has concluded the finance lease mainly with respect to PPA, particularly where the contract conveys to
the purchaser of the energy an exclusive right to use generated energy.
In case of finance leases, where assets are leased out under a finance lease, the amount recognised under finance
lease receivables is an amount equal to the net investment in the lease.
Minimum lease payment made under finance lease is apportioned between the finance income and the reduction of
the outstanding receivables. The finance income is allocated to each period during the lease terms so as to produce
a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease receivable.
133
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

The Group as a lessee


The Group’s lease asset classes primarily consists of leases for buildings taken on lease for operating its branch
offices. The Group assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. At the date of
commencement of lease, the Group recognise a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for
all lease arrangement in which it is a lessee except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term
leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Group recognizes the lease payments
as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on straight-line basis over the lease term.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortised cost at the present value of the future lease payments.
Transition
Effective April 1, 2019, the Group adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases” and applied the standard to all lease contracts
existing on April 1, 2019 using the retrospective with cumulative effect method of initially applying the standard
recognised at the date of initial application without any adjustment to opening balance of retained earnings. The
Group did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements on application of the above
standard.
(u) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise
deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less from date of acquisition that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which
are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
(v) Earnings per share
In determining Earnings per Share, the Company considers net profit after tax and includes post tax effect of any
exceptional item and the effects under the scheme approved by the Hon’ble High Court. Basic earnings per share is
calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the financial year. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit
or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Cash Flow Statement
(w)
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of
transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The
cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Group are segregated based on the available
information.
(x) Segment Reporting
The Operating segments have been identified and reported taking into account its internal financial reporting,
performance evaluation and organisational structure of its operations, operating segment is reported in the manner
evaluated by the Board considered as the Chief Operating Decision-Maker under Ind AS 108 “Operating Segments”.
(y) Accounting for oil and gas activity
The Group follows the “Successful Efforts Method” of accounting for its oil and natural gas exploration and
production activities read with the Guidance Note published by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the
ICAI) in December, 2016.
The cost of survey and prospecting activities conducted in search of oil and gas are expensed out in the year in
which the same are incurred. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are accounted on the basis of statement of accounts
of Joint operations on line by line basis according to the participating interest of the Group.
(z) Government grant
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant
will be received and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants relating to income are
deferred and recognised in the profit or loss over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are
intended to compensate and are presented within other income.
In case of RPSCL, the benefit of interest free government loan in the form of deferred payments of value added
tax and entry tax is treated as the Government grant. The deferred payment liabilities are recognised and measured
in accordance with Ind AS 109, “Financial Instruments” where the benefit of the below market rate of interest shall
be measured as the difference between the initial carrying value determined in accordance with Ind AS 109, and
the proceeds received.
134
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

In case of SPL, exemption granted by GoI to the UMPPs under the Custom Act, 1962 is recognised at their fair value
as Government grant. Government grants relating to the purchase of PPE are included in non current liabilities as
deferred income and credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the proportion in which depreciation expense on
those assets is recognised.
Dividends
(aa)
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the
discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting
period.
Business combinations
(bb)
Business combinations involving entities that are controlled by the Group are accounted for using the pooling of
interests method as follows:
(i) The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts.
(ii) No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognise any new assets or liabilities.
(iii) Adjustments are only made to harmonise accounting policies.
(iv) The financial information in the financial statements in respect of prior periods is restated as if the business
combination had occurred from the beginning of the preceding period in the financial statements, irrespective
of the actual date of the combination. However, where the business combination had occurred after that date,
the prior period information is restated only from that date.
(v) The balance of the retained earnings appearing in the financial statements of the transferor is aggregated with
the corresponding balance appearing in the financial statements of the transferee or is adjusted against General
Reserve.
(vi) The identities of the reserves are preserved and the reserves of the transferor become the reserves of the
transferee.
(vii) The difference, if any, between the amounts recorded as share capital issued plus any additional consideration
in the form of cash or other assets and the amount of share capital of the transferor is transferred to capital
reserve and is presented separately from other capital reserves.
2.2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements under Ind AS requires the management to take decisions and
make estimates and assumptions that may impact the value of revenues, costs, assets, liabilities and the related disclosures
concerning the items involved as well as contingent assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date. Estimates and
judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of
future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition,
seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
Estimation of uncertainties relating to the global health pandemic from COVID-19 (COVID 19):
The Group has considered the possible effects that may result from the pandemic relating to COVID-19 on the carrying
amounts of receivables, unbilled revenues, goodwill and intangible assets. In developing the assumptions relating to the
possible future uncertainties in the global economic conditions because of this pandemic, the Group, as at the date of
approval of these financial statements has used internal and external sources of information on the expected future
performance of the Group. The Group has performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used and based on current
estimates expects the carrying amount of these assets will be recovered. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company
financial statements may differ from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial statements.
(a) Useful life of Power Plants given on finance lease classified as finance lease receivables
The Group has independently estimated the useful life and method of depreciation of power plant and coal mine
assets considering the total portfolio of power generation assets based on the expected wear and tear, industry trends
etc. In actual, the wear and tear can be different. When the useful lives differ from the original estimated useful lives,
the Group will adjust the estimated useful life / residual value accordingly. It is possible that the estimates made
based on existing experience are different to the actual outcomes within the next financial period and could cause a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of PPE and finance lease receivables.
(b) Stripping ratio for coal mining
Significant estimate is involved in case of open pit mining operations for estimating quantity of overburden and
mineable coal reserve which would be extracted over the life of the mine, based on which stripping ratio is determined.
This ratio is periodically reviewed and changes, if any, are accounted for prospectively. SPL has considered the
stripping ratio based on the coal mine plan approved by the regulator.
135
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

(c) Income taxes


There are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain and would get
finalised on completion of assessment by tax authorities. Where the final tax outcome is different from the
amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in
the period in which such determination is made. (Refer note 17)
(d) Deferred tax
The Group has deferred tax assets and liabilities which are expected to be realised through the Statement of
Profit and Loss over the extended periods of time in the future. In calculating the deferred tax items, the Group
is required to make certain assumptions and estimates regarding the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as recorded in the financial statements and
their tax bases. Assumptions made include the expectation that future operating performance for subsidiaries will
be consistent with historical levels of operating results, recoverability periods for tax loss carry forwards will not
change, and that existing tax laws and rates will remain unchanged into foreseeable future. (Refer note 17)
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will
be available against which the same can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine
the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future
taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
According to management’s estimate, MAT credit balances will expire and may not be used to offset taxable
income. The Group neither has any taxable temporary difference nor any tax planning opportunities available that
could partly support the recognition of these MAT credit entitlement as deferred tax assets. On this basis, the
Group has determined that it cannot recognise deferred tax assets on these balances.
(e) Application of lease accounting
Significant judgement is required to apply lease accounting rules of Ind AS 116 “Determining whether an
Arrangement contains a Lease”. In assessing the applicability to arrangements entered into by the Group, the
management has exercised judgment to evaluate customer’s right to use the underlying assets, substance of the
transaction including legally enforced arrangements and other significant terms and conditions of the arrangement
to conclude whether the arrangements meet the criteria.
Classification of lease
In case of RPSCL, significant judgment has been applied by the Group in determining whether substantially all the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the lease assets are transferred to the other entities.
(f) Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its Property, plant and equipment
and the unguaranteed residual value of assets given on lease to determine whether there is any indication that
those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset
/ residual value is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
Recoverable amount of PPE is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. Value in use is
usually determined on the basis of discounted estimated future cash flows. This involves management estimates
on anticipated efficiency of the plant, fuel availability at economical rates, economic and regulatory environment,
discount rates and other factors. Any subsequent changes to cash flow due to changes in the above mentioned
factors could impact the carrying value of assets.
(g) Fair value measurement and valuation process
The Group has measured certain assets and liabilities at fair value for financial reporting purposes. The management
determines the appropriate valuation technique and inputs for fair value measurement. In estimating the fair
value, the management engages third party qualified valuer to perform the valuations.
Estimates and judgements are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future
events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. (Refer note 19)
(h) Revenue from contracts with customers and other income
In case of RPSCL and VIPL, sale of energy is recognised on an accrual basis as per the tariff rates approved
by respective Electricity Regulatory Authority in accordance with the provisions of the respective PPA. In case
where tariff rates are yet to be approved, provisional rates are adopted based on the principles enunciated in the
respective PPA and the applicable regulations. Deviation from such estimate on receipt of the final approval could
result in significant adjustment to the revenue. Revenue is also recognised towards truing up of fixed charges as
per the petitions filed based on the principles enunciated in the PPA and UPERC (Terms & Condition of Generation

136
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Tariff) Regulations, 2014 in case of RPSCL and truing up of fixed charges and fuel adjustment charges as per the
applicable MERC (Multi year tariff) Regulations in case of VIPL.
(i) Mine closure obligation
Provision is made for costs associated with restoration and rehabilitation of mining sites as soon as the obligation
to incur such costs arises. Such restoration and closure costs are typical of extractive industries and they are
normally incurred at the end of the life of the mine. The costs are estimated on the basis of mine closure plans
and the estimated discounted costs of dismantling and removing these facilities and the costs of restoration are
capitalised when incurred reflecting the obligations at that time. The provision for decommissioning assets is based
on the current estimate of the costs for removing and decommissioning production facilities, the forecast timing

(j) Provision
Estimates of the amounts of provisions recognised are based on current legal and constructive requirements,
technology and price levels. Because actual outflows can differ from estimates due to changes in laws, regulations,
public expectations, technology, prices and conditions, and can take place many years in the future, the carrying
amounts of provisions are regularly reviewed and adjusted to take account of such changes.

power plants through its subsidiaries and other considerations, has been legally advised that the Parent Company is not covered
under the provisions of Non-Banking Financial Company as defined in Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 and accordingly is not

6) Project status of Coastal Andhra Power Limited (CAPL)


CAPL was incorporated to develop an imported coal-based Ultra Mega Power Project (UMPP) of 3,960 MW capacity located
in Krishnapatnam, District Nellore, in the State of Andhra Pradesh.
The project was awarded to Reliance Power Limited (RPL) through international tariff-based competitive bidding process
managed by Power Finance Corporation (PFC), the nodal agency appointed by Ministry of Power. PFC was required to set
up special purpose vehicles for each UMPP and to undertake initial development of UMPPs in terms of land acquisition and
key clearances and thereafter select a developer for development, financing, construction and operation of the UMPP. On
emerging successful, 100% ownership of CAPL was transferred by PFC to RPL pursuant to execution of a Share Purchase
Agreement (SPA); thereafter RPL became the Parent Company of CAPL.
CAPL had entered into a firm price fuel supply agreement which envisaged supply of coal from Indonesia with RCRPL, a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Parent Company. The Government of Indonesia introduced a new regulation in September, 2010
which prohibited sale of coal, including sale to affiliate companies, at below Benchmark Price which is linked to international
coal prices and required adjustment of sale price every 12 months. This regulation also mandated to align all existing long-
term coal supply contracts with the new regulations within one year i.e. by September, 2011. The new Indonesian regulations
led to steep increase in price of coal imported from Indonesia, making the Krishnapatnam UMPP unviable and as a result CAPL
could not draw down already tied-up debt for the project. The said issue was communicated to the power procurers of the
UMPP with a view to enter into mutual discussions to arrive at a suitable solution to the satisfaction of all the stakeholders.
The impact of new Indonesian regulation, being an industry-wide issue which impacted all imported coal-based projects in
the Country, was also taken up with GoI through the Association of Power Producers.
Since no resolution could be arrived, CAPL invoked the dispute resolution provision of the PPA. The procurers also issued a
notice for termination of the PPA and raised a demand for liquidated damages of ` 40,000 lakhs.
CAPL filed a petition before the Hon’ble High Court at Delhi inter-alia for interim relief under Section 9 of the Arbitration and
Conciliation Act, 1996. The single judge of the High Court at Delhi vide order dated July 02, 2012 dismissed the petition and
CAPL filed an appeal against the said order before the Division Bench of the High Court at Delhi. The Division Bench dismissed
the appeal on January 15, 2019 and consequently the PPA between procurers and CAPL stood terminated. Thereafter, the
procurers have encashed the Performance Bank Guarantees of ` 30,000 lakhs towards recovery of their liquidated damages
claim.
CAPL has filed a petition before the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) for referring the dispute to arbitration
and the petition is currently pending adjudication by CERC. This has been shown as receivable from procurer (Refer Note
No.3.8(g)).
As per the clause 6.7.1 of SPA among PFC, RPL and CAPL, on termination of PPA pursuant to Article 3.3.2 of PPA, PFC has a
right to seek transfer of ownership of CAPL to PFC / entity designated by PFC. Accordingly, RPL has requested PFC to initiate
process of transfer of ownership of CAPL and invite a procurers’ meeting in that regard to decide on modalities of transfer.
7) Project status of Samalkot Power Limited (SMPL)
(a) Capital work in progress [1508 Mega Watt (MW) (754 MW X 2) Plant]
There is a continued uncertainty regarding availability of natural gas in the country for operation of the plant, and while
SMPL is actively pursuing with relevant authorities for securing gas linkages / supply at commercially viable prices /
generation opportunities, it is also evaluating alternative arrangements / approaches, including marketing of equipment
pursuant to an agreement with US-EXIM, to deal with the situation. SMPL is confident of arriving at a positive resolution
to the foregoing in the foreseeable future and therefore, the carrying amount of capital work in progress is considered
recoverable.
(b) Non Current assets held for sale (754 MW Plant)
The Parent Company, had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Government of Bangladesh
(GoB) for developing a gas-based project of a 3000 MW capacity in a phased manner. Pursuant to the above, Reliance
Bangladesh LNG and Power Limited (RBLPL), subsidiary of the Parent Company has taken steps to conclude a long-
term power purchase agreement (PPA) for supply of 718 MW (net) power from a combined cycle gas-based power
plant to be set up at Meghnaghat near Dhaka in Bangladesh.
RBLPL has signed all the project agreements (Power Purchase Agreement, Implementation Agreement, Land Lease
Agreement and Gas Supply Agreement) with Government of Bangladesh authorities on September 01, 2019, and also
inducted a strategic partner JERA Power International (Netherlands) - a subsidiary of JERA Co. Inc. (Japan) to invest
49% equity in RBLPL on September 02, 2019. Samsung C&T (South Korea) (SCTK) has been appointed as the EPC

Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

contractor for the Bangladesh project. SMPL has signed an Equipment Supply Contract on 11 March, 2020 to sell
equipment of one module.
Considering the aforesaid developments, management of the Company is confident that RBLPL will be able to execute
the project and the Company will be able to realize the proceeds for transfer of one Module in the near future. The
proceeds from the sale of module 1 will be sufficient to repay a major portion of the outstanding loan.
Having regard to the above plans, and the continued financial support from the Parent Company, the management
believes that SMPL would be able to meet its financial and other obligations in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the
financial statements of SMPL have been prepared on a going concern basis.
8) Status of Dadri Project
The Parent Company proposed to develop a 7,480 MW gas-based power project to be located at Dadri, District Hapur,
Uttar Pradesh in the year 2003. The Government of Uttar Pradesh (the GoUP) in the year 2004 acquired 2,100 acres
of land and conveyed the same to the Parent Company in the year 2005, However, certain land owners challenged the
acquisition of land by the GoUP for the project before the Hon’ble Allahabad High Court. The Hon’ble Allahabad High Court
quashed a part of land acquisition proceedings. Subsequently, in the appeals filed by the Parent Company and land owners
against the findings of the Hon’ble Allahabad High Court, the Hon’ble Supreme Court held the land acquisition proceedings
as lapsed but upheld the right of the Parent Company to recover the amount paid in any other proceeding. Considering
the above facts, the Parent Company has classified assets related to the Dadri project under the head ‘Non-current assets
classified as held for sale. During the year ended March 31, 2020, out of Prudence of the Parent Company has fully
provided for receivables of ` 15,005 lakhs against the project. (Refer note 33(a)).
9) Status of RSTEPL Project
Considering accounting policy of capitalisation and on achieving the intended performance of the plant basis the current
structure and capital expenditure incurred, RSTEPL has capitalised its plant on October 01, 2018. Leaving DNI (direct normal
irradiance) uncertainty aside, in terms of operating performance, for a given level of DNI input (in terms of its quantity and

Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In
practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. While calculating the
sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the
defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been
applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet. The methods and types of
assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.
The above funded defined benefit plans are administrated by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and Reliance
Nippon Life Insurance Company Limited (RLIC).
(iv) For unfunded plan, the Group has no compulsion to pre fund the liability of the plan. The Group’s policy is not to
externally fund these liabilities but instead recognise the provision and pay the gratuity to its employees directly from
its own resources as and when the employee leaves the Group.
(v) Defined benefit liability and employer contributions:
The Company will pay based on demand raised by LIC and RLIC towards gratuity liability on time to time basis to
eliminate the deficit in defined benefit plan.
(vi) The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to bond yields; if plan assets under perform
this yield, this will create a deficit.

(b) Fair value hierarchy


This section explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments
that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are
disclosed in the financial statements. The Group has not disclosed the fair values of financial instruments such as short-
term trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, Fixed deposits, Security deposits etc. as carrying
value is reasonable approximation of the fair values. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used
in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the
accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath table.

(d) Valuation technique used to determine fair values
Specific valuation technique used to determine the fair values:
• Investment in mutual funds are valued using the closing Net Assets Value (NAV). NAV represents the price at
which the issuer will issue these units and will redeem such units of mutual fund to and from the investor.
• Interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable
curves.
• Forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using Bloomberg forward contract pricing model, which
determines fair value on a discontinued cash flow basis.
• Foreign currency option contracts is determined using the Black Scholes valuation model.
• Remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted cash flow analysis.
The carrying amount of current financial assets and liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values, due
to their short-term nature.
The fair value of the long-term borrowings with floating-rate of interest is not impacted due to interest rate
changes, and will be evaluated for their carrying amounts based on any change in the under-lying credit risk of the
Group borrowing (since the date of inception of the loans).
For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amount is equal to the fair values.

171
Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

Note:
Level 1: Hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example over-the-
counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and
rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are
observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in
level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities which are included in level 3.
There are no transfers between any levels during the year.
The Group’s policy is to recognise transfer into and transfer out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the
reporting period.
20. Financial risk management
The Group’s business activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risks and credit risk.

Risk Exposure arising from Measurement Management


Credit Risk Cash and cash equivalents, trade Ageing analysis Diversification of bank deposits, letters
receivables, financial assets measured at of credit
amortised cost.
Liquidity Risk Borrowings and other liabilities Rolling cash flow Availability of committed credit lines and
forecasts borrowing facilities
Market risk – Recognised financial assets and liabilities Sensitivity analysis Partly hedge by foreign exchange
foreign exchange not denominated in Indian rupee (INR) forward contracts and call spread
Market risk – Long-term borrowings at variable rates Sensitivity analysis Partly hedge by Interest rate swap
interest rate
(a) Credit risk
The Group is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligation resulting
in a financial loss to the Group. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, financial assets, carried at amortised
cost and deposits with banks and mutual funds, as well as credit exposures with trade customers towards sale of
electricity as per the terms of PPA under respective state regulations and respective state distribution companies
including outstanding receivables.
Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss.
The Group’s credit risk arises from accounts receivable balances on sale of electricity is based on tariff rate approved by
electricity regulator and inter-corporate deposits / loans are given to corporates. The credit risk is very low as the sale
of electricity is based on the terms of the PPA which has been approved by the regulator. There is no change in the risk
status of such corporates.
For deposits with banks and financial institutions, only highly rated banks / institutions are accepted. Generally all policies
surrounding credit risk have been managed at Group level. The Company’s policy to manage this risk is to invest in debt
securities that have a good credit rating.
(b) Liquidity risk
(i) (Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close
out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Group treasury maintains flexibility
in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.
In respect of its existing operations, the Group funds its activities primarily through long-term loans secured
against each power plant. In addition, each of the operating plants has working capital loans available to it which
are renewable annually, together with certain intra-group loans. The Group objective in relation to its existing
operating business is to maintain sufficient funding to allow the plants to operate at an optimal level.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis
of expected cash flows. The Group’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows with customers
and by considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios
against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

Reliance Power Limited

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

While the Group has direct exposure to foreign exchange rate changes on the price of non-Indian Rupee-
denominated securities and borrowings, it may also be indirectly affected by the impact of foreign exchange rate
changes on the earnings of companies in which the Group invests. For that reason, the below sensitivity analysis
may not necessarily indicate the total effect on the Group’s net assets attributable to holders of equity shares of
future movements in foreign exchange rates.
• Foreign currency risk exposure
The Group exposure to foreign currency risk (all in USD) at the end of the reporting period expressed in Rupees, are as
follows:

**The above impact has been assessed taking into consideration the accounting policy adopted by the Group for the
accounting for foreign exchange differences. [Refer note 2.1(n) above]
(ii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable
rates, which expose the Group’s cash flow to interest rate risk.
The Group’s fixed rate borrowings and inter corporate deposits are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not
subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will
fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
• Interest rate risk exposure
The exposure of the Group’s borrowings to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period is as follows:

21. Capital Management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order
to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce
the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid
to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

avail the exemptions/ benefits of Mega power projects, including duty of customs. However, Customs authorities and Customs,
Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal have not considered the exemption of custom duty and SMPL has filed an appeal before
the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India claiming the benefits of Mega project. The Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC)
contract entered into with R Infra, is inclusive of all taxes and duties and hence such custom duty benefit, if grated under the
aforesaid scheme will be passed on to R Infra.
Basis developments as detailed in note 7, during the year, SMPL has filed an appeal with Honorable Supreme Court praying for
grant of extension for warehousing of goods, to R Infra, on behalf of SMPL without submission of Bank Guarantee as R Infra has
already furnished adequate bond under Section 59 of Customs Act, 1962. Further, SMPL has requested the Court to permit SMPL
or R Infra (on behalf of Company) to sell the goods out of India as per the provisions of Customs Act, 1962.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020

35. (a) VIPL has incurred an operating loss during the year ended March 31, 2020. VIPL’s ability to meet its obligations
is dependent on material uncertain events including outcome of an Appeal challenging the Order of Hon’ble
Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) dated December 16, 2019 relating to the notice of
termination of Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), before Ld. Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL). Final
hearing in the matter is scheduled on May 22, 2020, however, in the last hearing on March 6, 2020, VIPL sought
adjournment stating that the PPA termination Order passed by Hon’ble MERC was based on its findings on the
pendency of Civil Appeal (CA) No. 372 of 2017 before the Hon’ble Supreme Court (SC), which Hon’ble MERC has
filed on the Order/Judgment received from Ld. Appellate Tribunal of Electricity (APTEL) partially setting aside the
Hon’ble MERC Order dated June 20, 2016. Final hearing in CA No. 372 of 2017 is expected to be scheduled soon.
Further in light of the ratio determined in the Hon’ble SC Judgment in Civil Appeal 5399-5400 of 2016 (Energy
Watchdog Vs. CERC) and Hon’ble MERC Order dated 07.03.2018 in APML vs. MSEDCL matter, VIPL filed a revised
Mid-Term Review (MTR) seeking full recovery of coal costs in the variable charge for the period starting from
COD till date and for the future period. However, after reserving the order on 8th January 2019, Hon’ble MERC
has not issued the same till date. To expedite the MTR Order, VIPL has filed an interim application in CA 372 of
2017 before the Hon’ble Supreme Court seeking direction to Hon’ble MERC for releasing the Mid-Term Review
(MTR) order, which would entail recovery of coal cost by VIPL in terms of the change in law relief from MERC
in its MTR petition and securitisation of such receivables would provide with necessary liquidity to make the debt
service current and support sustained plant operations moving forward. Pursuant to its successful participation in
auction carried out by Coal India Limited under SHAKTI Policy, VIPL has received a Letter of Intent (LoI) for long-
term supply of coal for its Unit 1 from Western Coal Fields Limited (WCL) and has taken steps towards execution
of Fuel Supply Agreement for Unit 1, thereby extending long-term security of fuel supply to Unit 1, that is already
available for Unit 2. However, WCL has issued a letter cancelling the LoI for Unit 1 on the assumption that PPA
has been terminated by AEML, which VIPL is contesting at the appropriate forum. With this, both 300 MW units
of VIPL will have long-term security of fuel supply. Subsequent to the quarter ended on December 31, 2019, one
of the lenders of VIPL has filed an application under the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016
(IBC) seeking debt resolution of VIPL. VIPL has been in discussion with all its lenders for a resolution outside the
Corporate Insolvency resolution process (CIRP). In view of the above, the financial statements of the VIPL have
been prepared on a going concern basis.
(b) RSTEPL is actively engaged with the lenders to restructure the terms of loan and is confident of achieving the debt
resolution and further since there exist support from Parent Company to repay the debt and other obligations, the
financial statement of RSTEPL have been prepared on going concern.
36. As at March 31, 2020, the current liabilities of the Group exceed the current assets. The Group is confident of restructuring
the loans consequent to which there would be no mismatch in the cash flows. Even otherwise the Group expects to
generate sufficient and timely cash flows through time bound monetisation of gas based power plant equipments
and other assets of certain subsidiaries as also realize amount from regulatory/ arbitration claims. Notwithstanding
the dependence on material uncertain events including finalisation of restructuring of lending arrangements, sale of
equipment and favourable and timely outcome of various claims, the Group is confident that such cash flows would
enable it to service its debt, realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of its business. Accordingly,
the consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared on a going concern basis.
37. During the year, Adani Electricity (Mumbai) Limited terminated the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with VIPL as
the plant was un-operational since January 15, 2019. The termination was considered as valid by the Maharashtra
Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) vide its Order dated December 16, 2019. VIPL has challenged the termination
order before the Appellate Tribunal of Electricity (APTEL). As per the terms of the PPA, the entire output of the plant
was to be supplied to AEML and the PPA was also entered for the significant part of the life of the plant, VIPL had
considered the contract as Finance Lease. Since, the PPA stands terminated the requirements of maintaining the finance
lease receivables under Ind AS 116 “Leases” does not arise and hence, VIPL reinstated the value of Property Plant and
Equipment at its fair value based on the value determined by the independent expert. As per the valuation, after giving
effect of the finance lease receivable carrying in the books there was an impairment provision of ` 1,09,419 lakhs which
was charged off to Statement of Profit and Loss as an exceptional item.
38. Pursuant to the approval of the scheme of Amalgamation by NCLT Mumbai on August 30, 2018 and NCLT Chandigarh
on March 04, 2020, the transferor companies i.e. Amulin Hydro Power Private Limited, Emini Hydro Power Private
Limited, Mihundon Hydro Power Private Limited, Lara Sumta Hydro Power Private Limited, Sumte Kothang Hydro Power
Private Limited and Purthi Hydro Power Private Limited have been amalgamated with Reliance Cleangen limited, a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Company with effect from March 26, 2020. The said amalgamation will not have
impact on the Consolidated Financials of Reliance Power Limited.
39. During the year ended March 31, 2020, 12,73,21,500 equity shares, constituting 30% of Share capital, of RPSCL, a
subsidiary of the Parent Company, held as pledge for term loan facility to the Parent Company were invoked by a lender.
No impact of the said invocation has been given in the books of account except for the share holding of the Parent
Company, which stands reduced by 30% to 70%.

40. COVID-19 Pandemic has caused unprecedented economic disruption globally and in India. The Group is sensitive about
the impact of the Pandemic, not only on the human life but on businesses and industrial activity across the globe, which
will be ascertained only over next few months. The Group has been monitoring the situation closely and has taken
proactive measures to comply with various directions / regulations / guidelines issued by the Government and local
bodies to ensure safety of workforce across all its plants and offices. The Group has made initial assessment of the likely
adverse impact on economic environment in general and operational and financial risks on account of COVID-19. Vide
notification dated March 24 2020 issued by Ministry of Home Affairs a nation-wide lockdown was announced to contain
COVID-19 outbreak and the same has been progressively extended later. However, Power generation, transmission &
distribution units, being essential services, are allowed to continue operation during the period of lockdown. So far, the
Company has been able to sustain its power plant operations and honour commitments under the various Power Purchase
Agreements. There has been a sharp decline in the electricity demand, by 20 to 25%, primarily from industrial and
commercial consumer segments, arising from lockdown measures announced by the Government. The Power Ministry
has clarified on April 6, 2020 that despite lower power offtake due to sharp reduction in demand, Discoms will have
to comply with the obligation to pay fixed capacity charges as per PPA. Further, the Reserve Bank of India has granted
relief to borrowers by way of moratorium of interest and principal installments falling due to Indian banks and financial
institutions till May 31, 2020. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s results will
depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, among other things, evolving impact on Discoms
in terms of demand for electricity; consumption mix; resultant average tariff realisation; bill collections from consumers;
and support from respective State Governments and banks & financial institutions, including those focused on power
sector financing.

project will require 2,500 acres of land for the Power Project. However, the land acquisition procedures could not be
completed within the stipulated period and hence MEGL informed the GoM, vide letter dated September 06, 2011, of its
decision not to pursue the project. Based on the Honorable High Court Order dated February 07, 2013, MEGL has received
` 3,716 lakhs in the financial year ended March 31, 2013, out of the total advance of ` 4,360 lakhs paid to the
GoM for acquisition of land. The balance amount of ` 644 lakhs receivable from the GoM is in the process of
recovery. Shetkari Sangharsh Samitee has filed Special Leave Petition in the Honorable Supreme Court of India
against the Company, requesting for the stay on the Bombay High Court Order, directing refund of MEGL deposits
by the GoM.
Further MEGL had given an advance of ` 596 lakhs to the Land Owners towards direct purchase of land and has

8. Depreciation and amortisation expense 83,630 161,914

II. Audit Qualification (each audit qualification separately):


a. Details of Audit Qualification:
We refer to Note 32 to the consolidated annual accounts, regarding method of depreciation adopted by
the Parent Company for the purpose of preparing its consolidated financial results being different from the
depreciation method adopted by its subsidiaries which is a departure from the requirements of Ind AS 8
Accounting Policies, Changes in accounting estimates and errors since selection of the method of depreciation
is an accounting estimate and depreciation method once selected in the standalone financial statements is not
changed while preparing consolidated financial statements in accordance with Ind AS 110 Consolidated Financial
Statements. Management’s view in this regard has been set out in the aforesaid note.
Had the method of depreciation adopted by the subsidiaries of the Parent Company, been considered for the
purpose of preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company, the loss after tax in the
consolidated annual financial results would have increased by ` 53,859 lakhs and other equity and property,
plant and equipment would have reduced by ` 53,859 lakhs and ` 78,284 lakhs respectively.
b. Type of Audit Qualification : Qualified Opinion
c. Frequency of qualification: coming since March 31, 2019
d. For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management’s Views:
Management views is set out in the Note 32 to the Consolidated annual accounts, which is reproduced below:
Ind AS Transition Facilitation Group (ITFG) of Ind AS implementation Committee of the Institute of the Chartered
Accountants of India (the “ICAI”) has issued clarification on July 31, 2017 and has interalia made observations
regarding method of estimating depreciation adopted for preparing standalone financial statements of the
subsidiaries and for preparing consolidated financial statements. The Parent Company has received opinions from
reputed legal and accounting firms and technical experts from the power sector stating that clarification issued
by ITFG will not be applicable to it, as the Parent Company has been following different depreciation methods
in subsidiaries and in Consolidated Financial Statements since inception and as required by Ind AS 101 read
with Ind AS 16 has continued their respective methods of providing depreciation even under Ind AS regime.
The Parent Company accordingly continued to provide depreciation in its Consolidated Financial Statements by
straight line method, which is different as compared to the written down value method considered appropriate
by two of its subsidiaries.
