during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we required to

Responsibilities of Management and those charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these
standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive
income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding

accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free

• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence
obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that individually or in aggregate makes it probable
that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider
quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope pf our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work and (ii)
to evaluate the effect of ant identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and
significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the
audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be
expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Other Matter:
We did not audit the financial statements of 24 branches included in the standalone financial statements of the Company whose financial
statements reflect the total assets of r 283,044 lakhs as at March 31, 2020 (r 283,816 lakhs as at March 31, 2019) and total revenue of
r 544,220 lakhs for the year ended on that date (r 551,657 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2019). The financial statements of these
branches have been audited by the 9 branch auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion in so far as it relates to
the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these branches, is based solely on the report of such branch auditors.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are held on the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Intangible assets developed
or acquired with finite useful life are amortized on straight line basis over the useful life as specified below:
• Computer Software and Licenses – 3 to 5 years
• Right to Use – 5 years
Capital Work-in-progress and Pre-operative Expenses during Construction Period
Capital Work-in-Progress includes expenditure during construction period incurred on projects under implementation treated as
pre-operative expenses pending allocation to the assets. These expenses are apportioned to the respective fixed assets on their
completion / commencement of commercial production.
Depreciation/amortisation:
Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method applying the useful lives as prescribed in part C of Schedule II to the Companies
Act, 2013. The range of estimated useful lives of Property, Plant & Equipment’s are as under:
Category Useful Life
Buildings (including roads) 3 - 60 Years
Plant & Equipment* 7 - 25 Years
Moulds & Dies* 2 - 6 Years
Furniture & Fixture 10 Years
Office Equipment 3 - 5 Years
Vehicles 8 - 10 Years
* Useful life of Plant & Equipment of Plastic Piping System Division, Protective Packaging Division and Cross Laminated Film Division
and Moulds and Dies are determined based on the internal assessment supported by independent technical evaluation carried out
by external valuers.
The management believes that the useful life as given above the best represent the period over which the management expects to
use these assets. The company reviews the useful lives and residual value at each reporting date.
Depreciation on assets added/sold or discarded during the year is being provided on pro-rata basis up to the date on which such
assets are added/sold or discarded. Leasehold Land is amortized over the period of lease.
Assets costing up to r 10,000 each are depreciated fully in the year of purchase.
Gains/Losses on disposals/de-recognition of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying
amount and these are recognized in statement of profit & Loss.
Assets held for sale
Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising of assets and liabilities are classified as ‘held for sale’ when all of the following
criteria’s are met:
(i) decision has been made to sell.
(ii) (the assets are available for immediate sale in its present condition.
(iii) the assets are being actively marketed and
(iv) sale has been agreed or is expected to be concluded within 12 months of the Balance Sheet date.
Subsequently, such non-current assets and disposal groups classified as ‘held for sale’ are measured at the lower of its carrying value
and fair value less costs to sell. Non-current assets held for sale are not depreciated or amortised.
1.5 IMPAIRMENT OF NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS
The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a non-financial asset or a group of non-
financial assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the amount of impairment loss. For the purpose
of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets is considered as a cash generating unit. If any such indication
exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the individual asset/cash generating unit is made.
An impairment loss is calculated as the difference between an asset’s carrying amount and recoverable amount. Losses are recognised
in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account. When the Company considers that there are no realistic prospects of recovery
of the asset, the relevant amounts are written off. If the amount of impairment loss subsequently decreases and the decrease can
be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, then the previously recognised impairment loss is
reversed through profit or loss.
75
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
1.6 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company recognizes revenue, when or as control over distinct goods or services is transferred to the customer; i.e. when the
customer is able to direct the use of the transferred goods or services and obtains substantially all of the remaining benefits, provided
a contract with enforceable rights and obligations exists and amongst others collectability of consideration is probable taking into
account customer ’s creditworthiness.
Revenue is the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to. In determining the transaction price, the Company considers
effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing contracts, noncash consideration and consideration payable
to the customer, if any.
Variable Consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will
be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. Some contracts with the customers provide them with a right
to return and volume rebates. The right to return and volume rebates gives rise to variable consideration. The amount of variable
consideration is calculated by either using the expected value or the most likely amount depending on which is expected to better
predict the amount of variable consideration.
Sale of goods: Revenues are recognized at a point in time when control of the goods passes to the buyer, usually upon either at the
time of dispatch or delivery. In case of export sale, it is usually recognised based on the shipped-on board date as per bill of lading.
Revenue from sale of goods is net of taxes and recovery of charges collected from customers like transport, packing etc.
Sale of services: Revenues are recognized over time on a straight-line basis or, if the performance pattern is other than straight-line,
as services are provided/rendered.
Other Income
Dividend income on investments is recognised when the right to receive dividend is established.
Interest income is recognized on a time proportionate basis taking into account the amounts invested and the rate of interest. For
all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the Effective interest rate method to the net
carrying amount of the financial assets.
1.7 Contract balances:
Trade Receivables:
A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e. only a passage of time is required
before payment of the consideration is due).
Contract liabilities:
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the company has received consideration
(or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the company transfer goods and
services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due, whichever is earlier.
Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the company performs under the contract.
1.8 GOVERNMENT GRANTS
Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all attached conditions
will be complied with. Government grants related to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis in the statement of profit and loss
over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs which they are intended to compensate. Such grants are deducted in
reporting the related expense. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as income over the expected useful life of the asset.
In case a non-monetary asset is given free of cost it is recognised at a fair value. When loan or similar assistance are provided by
government or related institutions, with an interest rate below the current applicable market rate, the effect of this favorable interest
is recognized as government grant. The loan or assistance is initially recognized and measured at fair value and the government grant
is measured as the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan and the proceeds received.
1.9 INVENTORIES
Inventories includes raw material, Work-in-Progress, stock -in -trade, finished goods, stores & spares, consumables, packing materials,
goods for resale and commercial premises are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. Materials in transit is valued at cost
incurred till date.
Raw Material and Components – cost include cost of purchases and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present
location and condition. Cost is determined using moving average.
Finished/Semi-Finished Goods – cost includes cost of direct material, labor, other direct cost (Including variable costs) and a
proportion of fixed manufacturing overheads allocated based on the normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Cost
is determined on weighted average cost basis.
76
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
Stock-in-trade - cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and
conditions.
Stores, Spare Parts, Consumables, Packing Materials etc. – cost is determined on FIFO basis.
Goods for Resale – cost is determined on FIFO basis.
Commercial Premises – Cost includes cost of land, premium for development rights, construction cost, materials, services and
allocated interest and expenses incidental to the construction business.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the
estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Adequate allowance is made for obsolete and slow-moving items.
1.10 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of
another entity.
Subsequent measurement
Financial assets, other than equity instruments, are subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive
income or fair value through profit or loss on the basis of both:
(a) the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and
(b) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Equity Instruments:
All investments in equity instruments classified under financial assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Equity instruments
which are held for trading are measured at FVTPL.
For all other equity instruments, the Company may, on initial recognition, irrevocably elect to measure the same either at FVOCI or
FVTPL. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Fair value changes on an equity instrument shall
be recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss unless the Company has elected to measure such instrument at FVOCI. Fair value
changes excluding dividends, on an equity instrument measured at FVOCI are recognised in the OCI. Amounts recognised in Other
Comprehensive Income (OCI) are not subsequently transferred to Statement of Profit and Loss. Dividend income on the investments
in equity instruments are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
77
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
Impairment
The Company recognises a loss allowance for Expected Credit Losses (ECL) on financial assets that are measured at amortised cost and
at FVOCI. The credit loss is difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to an entity in accordance with the contract
and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate. This is
assessed on an individual or collective basis after considering all reasonable and supportable including that which is forward-looking.
The Company’s trade receivables or contract revenue receivables do not contain significant financing Branch and loss allowance on
trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall, being simplified approach
for recognition of impairment loss allowance.
Under simplified approach, the Company does not track changes in credit risk. Rather it recognizes impairment loss allowance
based on the lifetime ECL at each reporting date right from its initial recognition. The Company uses a provision matrix to determine
impairment loss allowance on the portfolio of trade receivables.
The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted
for forward looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-
looking estimates are analysed.
For financial assets other than trade receivables, the Company recognises 12–month expected credit losses for all originated or
acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial
recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial asset increases
significantly since its initial recognition. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no
longer significant increase in credit risks since initial recognition, then the Company reverts to recognizing impairment loss allowance
based on 12 months ECL.
Impairment loss allowance including ECL or reversal recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the Statement
of Profit and Loss. This amount is reflected under the head ‘other expenses’ in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The impairment
loss is presented as an allowance in the balance sheet as a reduction from the net carrying amount of the trade- receivable, loan,
deposits and lease receivable respectively.
De-recognition
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers
rights to receive cash flows from an asset, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When
it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the
Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement. In that case, the
Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects
the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
Financial Liabilities
Initial Recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. Financial
liabilities are initially recognised at fair value net of transaction costs for all financial liabilities not carried at fair value through profit
or loss.
The Company’s financial liabilities includes trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts and derivative
instruments.
Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are subsequently measured at using EIR method. Financial liabilities carried at fair
value through profit or loss are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
De-recognition
A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. 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 or loss.
79
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
1.12 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The Company has provides following post-employment plans such as:
(a) Defined benefit plans such a gratuity and
(b) Defined contribution plans such as Provident fund & Superannuation fund
a) Defined-benefit plan:
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plan is the present value of defined
benefit obligations at the end of the reporting period less fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligations is calculated
annually by actuaries through actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method.
The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit
and loss:
(a) Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailment and non-routine settlements;
and
(b) Net interest expense or income
Re-measurement comprising of actuarial gains and losses arising from:
(a) Re-measurement of Actuarial(gains)/losses
(b) Return on plan assets, excluding amount recognized in effect of asset ceiling
(c) Re-measurement arising because of change in effect of asset ceiling
are recognised in the period in which they occur directly in Other comprehensive income. Re-measurement are not reclassified
to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Ind AS 19 requires the exercise of judgment in relation to various assumptions including future pay rises, inflation and discount
rates and employee and pensioner demographics. The Company determines the assumptions in conjunction with its actuaries, and
believes these assumptions to be in line with best practice, but the application of different assumptions could have a significant
effect on the amounts reflected in the income statement, other comprehensive income and balance sheet. There may be also
interdependency between some of the assumptions.
b) Defined-contribution plan:
Under defined contribution plans, provident fund, the Company pays pre-defined amounts to separate funds and does not have
any legal or informal obligation to pay additional sums. Defined Contribution plan comprise of contributions to the employees’
provident fund with the government, superannuation fund and certain state plans like Employees’ State Insurance and Employees’
Pension Scheme. The Company’s payments to the defined contribution plans are recognised as expenses during the period in
which the employees perform the services that the payment covers.
1.13 LEASES
As a Lessee:
The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for land, buildings and vehicles. The Company assesses whether a
contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the
use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:
(i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset;
(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease; and
(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability
for all lease arrangements 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 Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a
straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease
payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are
subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and
lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful
life of the underlying asset. Right of use assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the higher
of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate
cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the Cash
Generating Unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the
country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset
if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as
financing cash flows.
As a Lessor:
Lease income from operating leases where the Company is a lessor is recognised in income on a straight-line basis over the lease
term unless the receipts are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the expected inflationary
cost increases. The respective leased assets are included in the balance sheet based on their nature.
1.14 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
a) Functional and Presentation currency
The Financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is Company’s functional and presentation currency.
b) Initial Recognition
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences
arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss of the year.
c) Measurement of Foreign Currency Items at the Balance Sheet Date
Foreign currency monetary items of the Company are restated at the closing exchange rates. Non monetary items are recorded
at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign
currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The gain or loss arising on
translation of non- monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change
in the fair value of the item. Exchange differences arising out of these transactions are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
1.15 TAXES ON INCOME
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 adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax
losses, if any.
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit and loss except to
the extent it relates to items directly recognized in equity or in other comprehensive income. In this case, the tax expense is also
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, as the case may be.
Current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit is different from accounting profit due to temporary differences
between accounting and tax treatments, and due to items, that are never taxable or tax deductible. Current tax is measured at the
amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the taxation laws prevailing and applicable for the relevant
assessment year.
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. 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 realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
The Company offsets, the tax assets and liabilities (on a year on year basis) where it has a legally enforceable right and where it intends
to settle such assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realise the assets and liabilities on net basis.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Deferred
income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realized or
the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
81
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
Minimum Alternative Tax (‘MAT’) credit is recognised as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the
Company will pay normal income-tax during the specified period. The Company reviews the same at each balance sheet date and
writes down the carrying amount of MAT credit entitlement to the extent there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that
Company will pay normal income-tax during the specified period.
1.16 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENDITURE
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Product development costs are expensed as incurred unless technical and commercial
feasibility of the project is demonstrated, further economic benefits are probable, the Company has an intention and ability to
complete and use or sell the product and the costs can be measured reliably.
1.17 PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENCIES
A provision is recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past event; it is probable that an outflow
of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. These are reviewed
at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligation arising out of past event, 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 or a present obligation arising out of past event where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a contract are lower
than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations under the contract.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate,
the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as
a finance cost.
1.18 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and Cash equivalents include cash and Cheque in hand, bank balances, demand deposits with banks and other short-term
highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash & which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes
in value where original maturity is three months or less.
1.19 CASH FLOW STATEMENT
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method where by the profit before tax is adjusted for the effect of the transactions of a
non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past and future operating cash receipts or payments and items of income or expenses
associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the company
are segregated.
1.20 BORROWING COST
General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets
are capitalized as a part of Cost of that assets, during the period till all the activities necessary to prepare the Qualifying assets for its
intended use or sale are complete during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the assets 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.
Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
1.21 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic EPS is arrived at based on net profit after tax available to equity shareholders to the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year. The diluted EPS is calculated on the same basis as basic EPS, after adjusting for the effects of potential
dilutive equity shares unless impact is anti-dilutive.
1.22 SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Company has identified its Managing Director as CODM who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance
of the operating segments and makes strategic decisions.
1.23 EXCEPTIONAL ITEMS
When an item of income or expense within profit or loss from ordinary activity is of such size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is
relevant to explain the performance of the Company for the year, the nature and amount of such items is disclosed as exceptional items.
1.24 CASH DIVIDEND
The Company recognizes a liability to pay dividend when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the
discretion of the Company i.e. when the dividend distribution is being approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is
recognized directly in equity.

32 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities approximate
their carrying amounts largely due to the short term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the financial assets and financial
liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties,
other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation
technique:
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly
or indirectly.
Level 3: Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
The carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments by category are as follows:

33 RISK MANAGEMENT
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company’s
activity expose it to market risk, liquidity risk, commodity risk and credit risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial
performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts, foreign currency and
interest rate swaps are entered to hedge certain foreign currency risk exposures to hedge variable interest rate exposures. Derivatives

are used exclusively for hedging purposes and not as trading or speculative instruments. The Company’s financial risk management
policy is set by the Managing Director and governed by overall direction of Board of Directors of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial
instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange
rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk
sensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings.

A. CREDIT RISK
Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage this,
the Company periodically assess financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic
trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limits are set accordingly.
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 through each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in
credit risk the Company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the
date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information such as:
i) Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business
ii) Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty
iii) Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty’s ability to meet its
obligations
iv) Significant increase in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty
The company catogarises financial assets based on the assumptions, inputs and factors specific to the class of financial assets
into High-quality assets, negligible credit risk; Quality assets, low credit risk; Standard assets, moderate credit risk; Substandard
assets, relatively high credit risk; Low quality assets, very high credit risk; Doubtful assets, credit-impaired.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a
repayment plan with the Company. The Company categorises a loan or receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make
contractual payments greater than one year past due. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues
engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in
profit or loss.

C. MARKET RISK - INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes
in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Company’s position with regards to interest income and interest expenses and
to manage the interest rate risk, treasury performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the
proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.
Exposure to interest rate risk.
The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk as at the respective reporting date.
D. MARKET RISK- FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
The Company operates internationally and portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and 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 partly balanced by exports of goods and prudent hedging policy.
E. COMMODITY RISK
Principal Raw Material for Company’s products is variety of plastic polymers which are primarily Derivatives of Crude Oil.
Company sources its raw material requirement from across the globe. Domestic market prices are also generally remains in sync
with international market price scenario.
Volatility in Crude Oil prices, Currency fluctuation of Rupee vis-à-vis other prominent currencies coupled with demand–supply
scenario in the world market affect the effective price and availability of polymers for the Company. Company effectively manages
deals with availability of material as well as price volatility through:
1. Widening its sourcing base
2. Appropriate contracts and commitments
3. Well planned procurement & inventory strategy and
4. Prudent hedging policy on foreign currency exposure
Risk committee of the Company comprising members from Board of Directors and operations has developed and enacted a
risk management strategy regarding commodity Price risk and its mitigation.

F. IMPACT OF COVID-19
In March 2020, the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic which continues to spread across the country. On
25th March, 2020, the Government of India has declared this pandemic a health emergency, ordered temporarily closure of all
non-essential businesses, imposed restrictions on movement of goods/material, travel, etc. As the nature of business performed
by the Company majorly fell under non-essential category, these restrictions had substantially reduced its operations at various
plants for 25 to 35 days. The Company has since, after receiving applicable permissions, partially commenced operations
including despatch of goods to its’ customers at all of its manufacturing facilities and scaling up the same gradually.
In assessing the recoverability of trade receivables measured at amortised cost of r 31260 lakhs and realisation of inventories of
r 89057 lakhs, apart from considering the internal and external information up to the date of approval of these standalone financial
statements, the Company has also performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used and based on current indicators of
future economic conditions, the Company expects to recover the carrying amount of these assets. Refer Note 1 of the Financial
statements for accounting policy followed by the company for subsequent measurement of these assets.
The impact of the global health pandemic may be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these standalone
financial statements. Considering the continuing uncertainties, the Company will continue to closely monitor any material
changes to future economic conditions.

Assumptions
With the objective of presenting the plan assets and plan liabilities of the defined benefits plans at their fair value on the
balance sheet, assumptions under Ind AS 19 are set by reference to market conditions at the valuation date.
The significant actuarial assumptions were as follows:
As at 31st March, As at 31st March,
2020 2019
Financial Assumptions
Discount rate 6.86% 7.79%
Expected Rate of Return on plan assets 6.86% 7.79%
Salary Escalation Rate 6.00% 6.00%
Attrition Rate 2.00% 2.00%
Demographic Assumptions
Mortality in Service : Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08)
E. Sensitivity
The sensitivity of the overall plan liabilities to changes in the weighted key assumptions are:
As at 31st March, As at 31st March,
2020 2019
Impact on defined benefit obligation Increase/Decrease in Increase/Decrease
liability in liability
+0.50% Change in rate of discounting (206) (162)
–0.50% Change in rate of discounting 222 175
+1.00% Change in rate of Salary increase 461 366
–1.00% Change in rate of Salary increase (403) (321)
+0.50% Change in Attrition Rate 13 25
–0.50% Change in Attrition Rate (14) (26)
The sensitivity analyses above have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions
occurring at the end of the reporting year and may not be representative of the actual change. It is based on a change in
the key assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. When calculating the sensitivity to the assumption, the
same method used to calculate the liability recognised in the balance sheet has been applied. The methods and types of
assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared with the previous year.

ii) Compensated Absences: Compensated Absences: The Company permits encashment of compensated absence accumulated
by their employees on retirement, separation and during the course of service. The liability in respect of the Company, for
outstanding balance of leave at the balance sheet date is determined and provided on the basis of actuarial valuation as at the
balance sheet date performed by an independent actuary. The Company doesn’t maintain any plan assets to fund its obligation
towards compensated absences.
iii) Notes:
Liability for post employment benefits, other long term benefits, termination benefits and certain short term benefits such as
compensated absences is provided on an actuarial basis for the Company as a whole. Accordingly the amount for above pertaining
to key management personnel is not ascertainable and, therefore, not included above.
36 LEASES
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) through Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2019 and Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Second Amendment Rules, has notified Ind AS 116 Leases which replaces the existing lease standard,
Ind AS 17 Leases and other interpretations. Ind AS 116 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. It introduces a single, on-balance sheet lease accounting model for lessees.
Effective April 1, 2019, the Company has adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases” using modified retrospective approach. The Company’s
lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for buildings and vehicles. These leases were classified as “Operating Leases” under
Ind AS 17. On transition to Ind AS 116 “Leases”, for these leases, lease liabilities were measured at the present value of remaining
lease payments, discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate as at April 01, 2019. Right to Use if measured either at
an amount equal to the lease liability adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments.
Due to transition, the nature of expenses in respect of operating leases has changed from “lease rent” to “depreciation cost” and
‘’finance cost’’ for the right-to-use assets and for interest accrued on lease liability respectively, and therefore, these expenses for the
current year are not comparable to the previous years, to that extent.
The Company has used following practical expedient, when applying Ind AS 116 to leases previously classified as operating leases
under Ind AS 17.
• The company didn’t recognized Right to Use and Lease liabilities for lease for which the lease terms ends within 12 months on
the date of initial transition and low value assets
• The Company excluded initial direct cost from measurement of the Right to Use assets at the date of initial application.
• The Company uses hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities is 9%.
On transition to the Ind AS–116, Impact thereof is as follows:
Particulars Amount
Right-to-use assets 4230
Lease liabilities 4230
The difference between the lease obligation under Ind AS 17 disclosed under Note no. 37 of the annual standalone financial statements
for the year ended March 31, 2019 and the value of the lease liability as of April 1, 2019 is primarily on account of inclusion of
extension and termination options reasonably certain to be exercised in measuring the lease liability in accordance with Ind AS 116
and discounting the lease liabilities to the present value under Ind AS 116.
Following are the changes in the carrying value of right of use assets for the year ended March 31, 2020:

Notes:
a) Most of the issues of litigation pertaining to Central Excise/Service Tax/Income Tax are based on interpretation of the respective
Law & Rules thereunder. Management has been opined by its counsel that many of the issues raised by revenue will not be
sustainable in law as they are covered by judgments of respective judicial authorities which supports its contention. As such no
material impact on the financials of the Company is envisaged.
b) Sales Tax and Entry Tax related litigation/demand primarily pertains to non-receipt of declaration forms from customers and
mismatch of input tax credit or some interpretation related issues w.r.t. applicability of schemes. Counsel of the Company opined
positive outcome based on merits of the cases under litigation. In most of the cases, required documents are being filed and
minor impact if any, shall be given in the year of final outcome of respective matter in appeal.
c) Other issues are either in ordinary course of business or not of substantial nature and management is reasonably confident of
their positive outcome. Management shall deal with them judiciously and provide for appropriately, if any such need arises.
d) There is uncertainty and ambiguity in interpreting and giving effect to the guidelines of Hon. Supreme Court vide its ruling
in February 2019, in relation to the scope of compensation on which the organisation and its employees are to contribute
towards Provident Fund. In the assessment of the management, the aforesaid matter is not likely to have a significant impact
and accordingly, no provision has been made in the financial statements.

THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design
and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has
adequate internal financial control system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures
made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence
obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s
report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group
to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of
the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are independent
auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by other auditors, such
other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the consolidated financial statements that individually or in aggregate makes it probable
that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the consolidated financial statements may be influenced. We consider
quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope pf our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work and (ii)
to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the consolidated financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company of which we are the independent auditors regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the
audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we
determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be
expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

116
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the group has control. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to
variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
• Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)
• Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
• The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
The group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more
of the three elements of controls. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases
when the group losses control of the subsidiary.
Consolidation procedure:
Subsidiaries:
a) Combine, on line by line basis like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those
of its subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities
recognised in the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.
b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion of equity of each
subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.
c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities
of the group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognised in assets, such as inventory and fixed
assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial
statements. Ind AS12 Income Taxes applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting
from intragroup transactions.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-
controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling
interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar
circumstances. If a member of the group uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the consolidated financial statements for
like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to that group member’s financial statements
in preparing the consolidated financial statements to ensure conformity with the group’s accounting policies.
The financial statements of all entities used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to same reporting date as that of the parent
company, i.e., year ended on 31 March. When the end of the reporting period of the parent is different from that of a subsidiary,
the subsidiary prepares, for consolidation purposes, additional financial information as of the same date as the financial statements
of the parent to enable the parent to consolidate the financial information of the subsidiary, unless it is impracticable to do so.
1.5 GOODWILL
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is initially recognized at cost at the date of acquisition. After initial recognition,
goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
117
THE SUPREME INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2020
When the Group’s share of losses of an associate exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate (which includes any long-term interests
that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), the Group discontinues recognising its share of further
losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made
payments on behalf of the associate.
Change in Ownership Interest:
When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss of control or significant influence, any
retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognized 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 recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity
are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously
recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts
previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate.
1.7 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional
currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each
reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary
items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair
value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for:
• exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned
nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation), which are recognised initially in other
comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to profit or loss on repayment of the monetary items.
For the purposes of presenting these consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are
translated into Indian Rupees using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are
translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case
the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in equity (and attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).
On disposal of foreign operations (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, a disposal involving loss of
control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, or a partial disposal of an interest in a joint arrangement or an associate
that includes a foreign operation of which the retained interest becomes a financial asset), all of the exchange differences accumulated
in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the owners of the Group are reclassified to profit or loss.
In addition, in relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation that does not result in the Group losing
control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests
and are not recognised in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals (i.e. partial disposals of associates or joint arrangements that do
not result in the Group losing significant influence or joint control), the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences
is reclassified to profit or loss.
1.8 SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Group has identified its Managing Director as CODM which assesses the operational performance and position of the Group
and makes strategic decisions.
1.9 For other accounting policies - Refer significant accounting policies mentioned in the standalone financial statement.

Notes:
a) Most of the issues of litigation pertaining to Central Excise/Service Tax/Income Tax are based on interpretation of the respective
Law & Rules thereunder. Management has been opined by its counsel that many of the issues raised by revenue will not be
sustainable in law as they are covered by judgments of respective judicial authorities which supports its contention. As such no
material impact on the financials of the Group is envisaged.
b) Sales Tax and Entry Tax related litigation/demand primarily pertains to non- receipt of declaration forms from customers and
mismatch of input tax credit or some interpretation related issues w.r.t. applicablity of schemes. Counsel of the Company opined
positive outcome based on merits of the cases under litigation. In most of the cases, required documents are being filed and
minor impact if any, shall be given in the year of final outcome of respective matter in appeal.
c) Other issues are either in ordinary course of business or not of substantial nature and management is reasonably confident of
their positive outcome. Management shall deal with them judiciously and provide for appropriately, if any such need arises.
d) There is uncertainty and ambiguity in interpreting and giving effect to the guidelines of Hon. Supreme Court vide its ruling in
February 2019, in relation to the scope of compensation on which the organisation and its employees are to contribute towards
Provident Fund. In In the assessment of the management, the aforesaid matter is not likely to have a significant impact and
accordingly, no provision has been made in the financial statements.
