Financial Instruments

(a) Financial Assets

Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. On initial recognition, a financial asset is recognised at fair value. In case of Financial assets which are recognised at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), its transaction cost are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the financial asset. Financial assets are subsequently classified and measured at

- amortised cost

- fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)

- fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their recognition, except if and in the period the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.

(b) Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Explanation to treatment of Change in Fair Value of Investments

As per previously applied GAAP, the Quoted securities were valued as Cost or Net Realisable Value whichever is lower.

As per Ind AS, the Investments can be valued as per Fair Value through Profit & Loss (FVTPL) or Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI) or Ammortised Cost.

We have treated the investments at FVTPL, so both the realized/ unrealized profit/ loss will be shown in the profit & loss account. It is to note that the current tax implication will only be on the realized Profit/ Loss and not on unrealized Profit/Loss whereas deferred tax will be created for the unrealized portion.

The other income of the current year includes Rs 651,486/- on account of unrealized profit due to the change in Fair Value of Investments. Deferred Tax adjustment against the same is done.

Alternatively, the investments could be passed through OCI, where the unrealized profit/loss would have been reflected as below the line item and the realized profit/loss as above the line item.

The PBT as per FVTPL is Rs. 68,92,011/- whereas if the investment would have been considered though OCI the PBT would have been Rs. 62,76,525/- The difference is Rs. 651,486/- which is on account of Change in Fair value of Investment, due to unrealized profit on account of change in fair value of investment passed though Profit and Loss Account. The PAT remains same under both the methods.

The reconciliation of equity and total comprehensive income in accordance with Previous GAAP to Ind AS are explained below.
