Note 42: Financial Instruments by category

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. 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 accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Fair value hierarchy

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market 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.

During the years mentioned above, there have been no transfers amongst the levels of hierarchy. The fair values of unquoted equity instruments are not significantly different from their carrying value and hence the management has considered their carrying amount as fair value.

Valuation processes

The finance department of the Company includes a team that performs the valuations of financial assets and liabilities required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. This team reports directly to the chief financial officer (CFO) and the audit committee (AC). Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO, AC and the valuation team at least once every three months, in line with the Company's quarterly reporting periods.

Note 43: Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company's principal financial liabilities, comprise of borrowings, security deposits, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include investments, loans, trade and other receivables, cash and cah equivalents and other bank balances that are derived directly from its operations.

The Company's financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The senior professionals working to manage the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company are accountable to the Board of Directors and Audit Committee.

This process provides assurance to Company's senior management that the Company's financial risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risk are identified, measured and managed in accordance with Company policies and Company risk objective.

The management reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:

(a) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks, such as equity price risk and commodity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risks include borrowings, security deposits, investments and foreign currency receivables and payables.

(i) Foreign Currency Risk

The Company operates internationally and portion of the business is transacted in several currencies. Consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in overseas and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. Exports of the Company are significantly lower in comparison to its imports. Foreign currency exchange rate exposure is party balanced by exports of goods and prudent hedging policy.

(ii) Interest rate risk:

Interest rate is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Company's financial liabilities comprises of interest bearing loans, vehicle loans and advances and security deposits; however these are not exposed to risk of fluctuation in market interest rate as the rates are fixed at the time of contract/agreement and do not change for any market fluctuation.

(iii) Commodity price risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing manufacture of paper and paper boards and therefore require a continuous supply of raw materials i.e. waste paper, chemicals, coal etc. being the major input used in the manufacturing. Due to the significantly increased volatility of the price of waste paper and coal the Company had entered into various purchase contracts for these material for which there is an active market. The Company's management has developed and enacted a risk management strategy regarding commodity price risk and its mitigation. The Company partly mitigated the risk of price volatility by entering into the contract for the purchase of these material and further the Company increases prices of its products as and when appropriate to minimize the impact of increase in raw material prices.

(b) Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk that the counter party will not meet its obligation under a financial instrument, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

i) Trade receivables

The Company has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before orders are accepted and the payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company's review includes external ratings, if they are available, financial statements, credit agency information, industry information and business intelligence. Sales limits are established for each customer and reviewed annually. Any sales exceeding those limits require approval from the appropriate authority as per policy.

Expected credit loss for trade receivables:

The Company estimates its allowance for trade receivable using lifetime expected credit loss. The Company has also taken advances and trade deposits from its customers which mitigate the credit risk to an extent. The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

ii) Financial Instruments and cash deposits

The Company considers factors such as track record, size of the instutition, market reputation, financial strength/ rating and service standards to select the banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. Generally the balances are maintained with the institutions with which the Company has also availed borrowings.

(c) Liquidity Risk

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its current requirements. Further, the Company's approach is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due and Company monitors rolling forecasts of its liquidity requirements.
