Note : Information about individual provisions

(i) Provision against litigation:

Provision for disputed statutory liabilities comprises electricity duties matters under litigation with Electricity department, government of Maharashtra.

The amount of provisions made by the Company is based on the estimates made by the Management considering the facts and circumstances of each case. To the extent the Company is confident that it has a strong case, that portion is disclosed under contingent liabilities.

The timing and the amount of cash flows that will arise from these matters will be determined by the Appellate Authorities only on settlement of these cases.

(ii) Other provision :

Other provision is for probable liability of electricity duty on power generated by the company. As on balance sheet date no demand has been raised on the company , but on prudent basis a provision has been recognised in compliance with Ind AS 37. The management estimates that no cash outflow is expected within 12 months from the balance sheet date, hence entire provision is classified as non current.

(i) Leave obligations :

The leave obligation covers the Company’s liability for accumulated leaves that can be encashed or availed. The company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of these obligations. However, based on past experience, the company does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months and accordingly amounts have been classified as current and non current based on actuarial valuation report.

(ii) Defined benefit plans:

a Gratuity - The Company provides for gratuity for employees as per the terms of employment. Employees who are in continuous service at least for a period of 5 years are eligible for gratuity. The amount of gratuity payable on retirement/termination is calculated at the last drawn monthly basic salary multiplied by 15 days salary for each completed years of service of the employee. The scheme is funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).

In addition, employees who have completed 20 years of service are eligible to additional gratuity computed at last drawn monthly basic salary multiplied by 7 days salary for each completed years of service of the employee. The additional gratuity benefit is unfunded.

Pension - The Company operates defined benefit pension plan for the Managing Director. The amount of pension per month is a fixed amount. The benefit is payable to the Director after he retires and is payable during his life time and thereafter is payable to his spouse, if she is alive . The Company has not funded the liability.

The net liability disclosed above relates to funded plans. The Group has no legal obligation to settle the deficit in the funded plans with an immediate contribution or additional contribution. The Group intends to contribute in line with the recommendations of the fund administrator and the actuary.

** One employee (Executive director-Mr.A.K.Jatia) has been transferred from payroll of AMJ Land Holdings Limited to payroll of the company during the year on August 1, 2018.

ab As at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, plan assets were primarily invested in insurer managed funds. ac Through its defined benefit plans, the group is exposed to number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:

Asset Volatility: The Plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to government bond yields. If plan assets underperform, this yield will create a deficit. The plan asset investments are in funds managed by insurer. These are subject to interest rate risk.

Changes in bond yield: A decrease in government bond yields will increase plan liabilities, although this may be partially offset by an increase in the returns from plan asset.

Defined benefit liability and employer contributions:

ad The Company ensures that the investment positions are managed within an asset-liability matching (ALM) framework that has been developed to achieve long-term investments that are in line with the obligations under the employee benefit plans. Within the framework, the Company’s ALM objective is to match assets to the gratuity obligations by investing in funds with LIC in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The Company actively monitors how the duration and the expected yield of the investments are matching the expected cash outflows arising from the employee benefit obligations. The Company has not changed the process used to manage its risks from previous periods.

ae The Group expects to contribute Rs. 482 lakhs to the defined benefit plan during the next annual reporting period.

The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Group’s benefit obligations as of March 31, 2019.

b Provident fund : The Group makes contribution towards provident fund which is administered by the trustees. The contributions to the trust managed by the Company is accounted for as a defined benefit plan as the Company is liable for any shortfall in the fund assets based on the government specified minimum rates of return as provided under Para 60 of the Employees Provident Fund Scheme, 1972. The Group has obtained an actuarial valuation of the liability according to which there is no deficit as at the Balance Sheet Date. The liability therefore is restricted to monthly contributions. The details of fund and plan assets are given below:

* Discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian Government securities as at the balance sheet date for the estimated term of the obligations.

** The overall expected rate of return on assets is based on the expectation of the average long term rate of return expected on investments of the Fund during the estimated term of the obligations.

*** The estimates of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation takes into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as demand and supply in the employment market.

The above sensitivity analysis are 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.

(iii) Defined contribution plans:

The Company also has certain defined contribution plans. Contributions are made to recognised funds for employees at the prescribed rate of basic salary as per regulations. The contributions are made to registered funds administered/approved by the government. The obligation of the Company is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation. In respect of these plans, contributions paid and recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss are as follows:

Contract liability i.e. the Company’s obligation to transfer goods to customers for which the Company has received consideration from the customers of Rs. 160.81 lakhs ( March 31,2018: Rs. 120.70 lakhs) is included in Advance from customers.

During the year ended March 31, 2019 the company recognized revenue of Rs. 120.70 lakhs arising from opening Contract liability as of April 1, 2018.

In accordance with the requirements of Ind AS, revenue for the year ended March 31, 2019 is net of Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’). However, revenue for the period April 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017 is inclusive of excise duty of Rs. 690.52 lakhs and revenue for the period July 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018 is net of GST.

NOTE 3(A): CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY EXPENDITURE

The Company has spent an amount of Rs. 55 lakhs (March 31, 2018 : Rs. 25 lacs) during the year, by way of contribution to M.P.Jatia Charitable Trust as required under section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013.

NOTE 3(B):

During the year, the Company has capitalised borrowing costs of Rs. 107.17 lakhs (March 31, 2018: Nil) incurred on the borrowings specifically availed for purchase of residential premises and expansion of production facilities @ 8.30% & 9.50 % p.a respectively. The interest expense disclosed above is net of the interest amount capitalised.

(i) Fair value hierarchy:

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognised and measured at fair value. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company’s financials assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value or where the fair value disclosure is required.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all mutual funds are arrived at by using closing Net Asset Value published by the respective mutual fund houses.

Level 2: Fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximize 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 as observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable data, the instrument is included in level 3.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the level 3 financial instruments included in the above tables:

The investment in unquoted equity instrument represents investment in class A equity shares of Sai Wardha Power Generation Limited (SWPGL). The investment have some restrictions as per the Share purchase agreement including restriction on sale of these investments to any third party. The fair value arrived at is after taking into account the relevant terms and condition of the Share purchase agreement. Also refer note 4(a) for details.

(iii) As per Ind AS 107 “Financial Instrument: Disclosure”, fair value disclosures are not required when the carrying amounts reasonably approximate the fair value. Accordingly fair value disclosures have not been made for the following financial instruments:-

1. Trade receivables

2. Cash and cash equivalent

3. Other bank balances

4. Security deposits

5. Interest accrued on deposits

6. Borrowings

7. Trade payables

8. Capital creditors

9. Unpaid dividends

10. Employee dues

11. Book overdrafts

12. Other payables

NOTE 4 : FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s business activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risks and credit risk. The Company’s senior management has the overall responsibility for establishing and governing the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set and monitor appropriate risk limits and controls, periodically review the changes in market conditions and reflect the changes in the policy accordingly. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company.

a. MANAGEMENT OF CREDIT RISK

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its investing activities, including deposits with banks and other financial instruments.

i) Trade receivables:-

Trade receivables are generally unsecured, except for export sales which are generally covered by letters of credit and some parties in Hygiene division where security is obtained in the nature of bank guarantee. Customer credit risk has always been managed by the company through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the credit worthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major customers. The Company evaluates the customer credentials carefully from trade sources before appointment of any distributor and only financially sound parties are appointed as distributors. The Company secures adequate deposits from its distributor and hence risk of bad debt is limited. The credit outstanding is sought to be limited to the sum of advances/deposits and credit limit determined by the company. The company have stop supply mechanism in place in case outstanding goes beyond agreed limits.

To measure the expected credit loss, trade receivables have been grouped based on the days past due. The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before the reporting date and the corresponding credit loss experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic factors such as expected industry growth, GDP, unemployment rate etc. affecting the ability of the customer to settle the receivables.

The company’s credit period generally ranges from 15-60 days

During the period, the Company made no write-offs of trade receivables. It does not expect to receive future cash flows or recoveries from receivables previously written off.

ii) Other financial assets:-

Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the company generally invests in deposits with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by domestic credit rating agencies. Investments primarily include investment in liquid mutual fund units, carried at fair value. Other financial assets that are potentially subject to credit risk consists of lease deposits and inter corporate loans. The Company charges interest on such loans at arms length rate considering counter party’s credit rating. The Company assesses the recoverability from these financial assets on regular basis. Factors such as business and financial performance of counterparty, their ability to repay, regulatory changes and overall economic conditions are considered to assess future recoverability. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis. The Company does not hold collateral as security. During the year, the company made additional provision of Rs. 7.62 lakhs for doubtful deposits and other financial assets. Based on assessment performed management has concluded that impact of expected credit loss is not material and current provision made against Loans and Other financial assets is adequate to cover the provision on account of expected credit loss. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of each class of financial assets.

b MANAGEMENT OF LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to company’s reputation. In doing this, management considers both normal and stressed conditions.

Management monitors the rolling forecast of the company’s liquidity position on the basis of expected cash flows. This monitoring includes financial ratios and takes into account the accessibility of cash and cash equivalents.

The company has access to funds from debt markets through loan from banks. The company invests its surplus funds in bank deposits and debt based mutual funds.

c MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK:

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of fluctuation in market prices. These comprise three types of risk i.e. currency rate, interest rate and other price related risks. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, financial assets and liabilities in foreign currency, investments in quoted instruments and derivative financial instruments. Regular interaction with bankers, intermediaries and the market participants help us to mitigate such risk.

i) Foreign currency risk

The primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk. After taking cognisance of the natural hedge, the company selectively takes hedges to mitigate its risk resulting from adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rate(s).

When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of hedge, the Company negotiates the terms of those derivatives to match the terms of the underlying exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives cover the period of exposure from the point the cash flows of the transactions are forecasted up to the point of settlement of the resulting receivable or payable that is denominated in the foreign currency.

The company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge its exposure in foreign currency risk. During the year ended March 31, 2019, the company did not have any hedging instruments with terms which were not aligned with those of the hedged items.

ac Sensitivity

For the year ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, every percentage point appreciation/depreciation in the exchange rate would have affected the Company’s operating margins respectively:

- INR/USD by approximately 1.36% and 1.46%

- INR/CHF by approximately Nil and 0.01%

- INR/EUR by approximately Nil and 0.00%

Sensitivity analysis is computed based on the changes in the income and expenses in foreign currency upon conversion into reporting currency, due to every percentage point appreciation/depreciation in the exchange rates.

ii) Interest rate risk exposure

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows on a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The management is responsible for the monitoring of the company’s interest rate position. Various variables are considered by the management in structuring the company’s investment to achieve a reasonable, competitive cost of funding.

iii) Price Risk and Sensitivity:

The Company is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its investment in debt mutual funds. The price risk arises due to uncertainties about the future market values of these investments. As on 31-Mar-19, the investments in debt mutual funds amounts to Rs. 2219.03 lacs (31-Mar-18 : Rs. 1872.18). These are exposed to price risk.

The Company has laid policies and guidelines which it adheres to in order to minimise price risk arising from investments in debt mutual funds.

A 1% increase in prices would have led to approximately an additional Rs. 22.19 lacs gain in the Statement of Profit and Loss (2017-18 : Rs. 18.72 lacs gain). A 1% decrease in prices would have led to an equal but opposite effect.

NOTE 5 : CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

(a) Risk management

The Company’s capital comprises equity share capital, share premium, retained earnings and other equity attributable to equity holders.

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to :

- safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and

- 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 or issue new shares.

The Company monitors capital using gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. Net debt comprises of long term and short term borrowings less cash and bank balances. Equity includes equity share capital and reserves that are managed as capital.

NOTE 6 : SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Board of Directors examines the Company’s performance based on the products and geographic perspective and has identified below mentioned reportable segments of its business as follows:

Paper : The Paper segment relates to manufacturing (including processing) and marketing of various types of speciality papers, consisting Opaque Laminating Base, Glassine, Base paper, Bible Paper, etc.

Hygiene products: The Hygiene products segment relates to processing/trading and marketing of tissue and other hygiene papers as well as marketing and distribution of other hygiene products.

Segment Revenue, Result, Assets and Liabilities include the respective amounts identifiable to each of the segments and amount allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated expenditure/income consist of common expenditure incurred for all the segments and expenses incurred or interest/investment income earned at corporate level. The assets and liabilities that cannot be allocated between the segments are shown as unallocated assets and unallocated liabilities respectively.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Company’s accounting policies described in Note 2. The operating segments reported are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available. Profit before tax (PBT) are evaluated regularly by the CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s financing (including finance costs and finance income) and income taxes are reviewed on an overall basis and are not allocated to operating segments. Transfer prices between operating segments are on an arm’s length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties.

(d) The Company has been purchasing power (i.e. electricity) from Sai Wardha Power Generation Limited (SWPL) since June 2016 under the Group Captive mechanism. Any purchase of power under Group Captive mechanism is exempt from the levy of Cross Subsidy Surcharge (CSS) and Additional Surcharge (ASC) subject to certain conditions.

In respect of the power supply availed by the Company from SWPL, the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) had levied in the bill raised on the Company CSS and ASC for financial year 2016-17 of Rs. 716.98 lakhs and 2018-19 (till October 2018) of Rs. 863.39 lakhs and the same is sub judice being disputed before appropriate authorities. In terms of the interim stay granted for 2018-19 by Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL) the Company was required to deposit Rs. 431.70 lakhs being 50% of CSS and ASC for the Financial Year 2018-19 while staying the demand for that year.

Further in terms of the Power delivery agreement with SWPL, if CSS/ ASC is ever imposed for any reason whatsoever then SWPL shall, at its own cost and consequences, approach the appropriate Forum/ Courts as may be considered appropriate by SWPL until the levy is finally and absolutely confirmed by such Court/Forum. If CSS/ ASC is levied on or directly or indirectly borne by the Company it would be forthwith reimbursed to the Company by SWPL or the Company will deduct the same from the amounts payable to SWPL.

As on date SWPL has become a subject matter of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code wide an order of National Company Law Tribunal, Hyderabad. The Resolution process of SWPL is not yet completed and the Company’s claims of CSS/ ASC from SWPL have been rejected by the Resolution Professional of SWPL, on the ground that the claims are sub judice.

In view of the nature of dispute and merits of the case, the Company does not envisage an ultimate liability for these amounts and accordingly as on balance sheet date no provision had been made in books for the same.

(b) Non-cancellable operating leases

The Group has taken on lease certain facilities and equipment under operating lease arrangements that expire over the next five years. Rental expense incurred by the Company under operating lease agreements totalled approximately Rs. 233.43 lakhs ( March 31, 2018 Rs. 141.09 lakhs)

NOTE 7: IMPAIRMENT

(a) Goodwill has arisen as per the Scheme of arrangement and reconstruction(demerger) approved by high court dated January 8, 2016. Goodwill reflects the difference between the fair value of shares issued and all the net assets transferred at carrying value under the scheme. The management monitors goodwill at the company level by considering entire business. Consequently goodwill is not allocable to any segment or cash generating unit.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the Company’s procedure for determining the recoverable value of the entire business of the company.

(b) The recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and its value in use. The fair value is determined based on market capitalization while the value in use is determined based on specific calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections for the company over a period of 5 years. An average of the range of each assumption used is mentioned below. The recoverable amount was computed based on value-in-use being higher than fair value and the carrying amount of the total assets . The key assumptions used for the calculations are as follows:

(c) Based on the above, no impairment was identified as of March 31, 2019 as the recoverable value exceeded the carrying value. An analysis of the calculation’s sensitivity to a change in the key parameters (revenue growth, operating margin, discount rate and long-term growth rate) based on reasonably probable assumptions, did not identify any probable scenarios where the recoverable amount would fall below its carrying amount.

NOTE 8 : IMPACT OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY

The Company has adopted Ind AS 115 Revenue from contract with Customers, from April 1, 2018. However, this has not resulted in any impact on the revenue recognised for current year or previous year. Additional disclosures as required under Ind AS 115 have been made in the financial statement presented. Comparative amounts presented have been re-grouped to align with current year’s presentation and disclosures.

NOTE 9 : RECLASSIFICATION

Previous year figure’s have been reclassified to conform to this year’s classification.
