pearl global industries limitedThe Company is consistently growing on the back of our strengths that enabled us 
to attain market distinction, and long-term success. The following factors play a 
key role in helping the Company stand out in the market:

Multinational Presence 

We have established our presence at multiple global locations, with 21 manufacturing facilities spread 
across four nations. Being an end-to-end supply chain provider, these facilities are present in two of 
the four supply chain sectors. As a result, these facilities help the Company deliver products with a 
much faster turnaround time – leading to an increased wallet share of existing customers.

Robust Design Team

To fulfil and meet both local and global fashion trends, the Company’s robust design team emphasise 
on a comprehensive market intelligence analysis conducted by our talented design personnel. This 
analysis includes gathering and assessing data from both large and regional areas, enabling Pearl 
Global to capitalise on these insights. The Company integrates technology like 3D CAD rendering, 3D 
optitex, CLO, and Browzwear with raw talent and insights to create final product. A robust design team, 
therefore allows the business to achieve success by delivering a worthy performance and acquiring 
more customer for a broadened industry presence.

Shift Towards Asset Light Model

Shifting to an asset-light business has provided an impetus for the Company to expand into new 
geographies and penetrate deeper into existing markets. This model serves as the Company’s core 
strength and has helped Pearl Global master its partnership model. Thereby, propelling the business to 
the next stage of growth, reducing our lead time and improving return ratios in the process.

Strong Customer Relationship

The Company has established a long-term collaboration with well-known big retail format stores 
such as Kohl’s, Macy’s, Target Australia, and others, as well as specialised retail format stores such 
as Bershka, Gap, Old Navy, and others. Pearl Global’s solid and long-standing customer relationships 
enable us to introduce new product categories to a ready number of customers easily.

11

AnnuAl report 2021-22corporate overviewstAtutory reportsfinAnciAl stAtementsAny partnership can make a huge difference, when it brings the expertise of two 
individuals. Partnerships are all about doing what one does better and continue 
doing more of it.

Pearl Global benefits from the synergies resulting from the Company’s partnerships. The Company’s partnership model 
enables us to build value, manage frameworks, and offer high-quality output by using the available capacity and resources 
comprehensively. This helps the Company develop strategies with collective efforts for better growth, bring the best each one 
offers to the table.

Pearl Global Contribution

Partnering Company’s Contribution

Working capital investment is a critical component of any 
company’s operations that helps it manage short-term 
financing and investment decisions. Pearl Global’s partnership 
model helps in leveraging the Company’s designing and 
procurement capabilities. Along with the capital investment, 
the Company also appoints an industrial engineer, whose 
role is to ensure compliance with industry norms and monitor 
production processes in line with the set guidelines.

As Pearl Global continues to collaborate and engage with 
different companies globally, the partnering company 
prudently manages capex and labour expenses in the local 
setup. As a result of this arrangement, Pearl Global enjoys 
the benefits of an asset light model while also offering the 
best of both the worlds.

businesses were still recovering, the Company established a goal and 
persistently worked towards achieving it. Pearl Global believes in driving 
success sustainably, and is hence focused on optimising allocation of 
resources, maintaining topline, and delivering significant output/results 
consistently.

AnnuAl report 2021-22corporate overviewstAtutory reportsfinAnciAl stAtementsAt Pearl Global, 2021-22 was a year 
of records both in the financial and 
extra-financial spheres – thanks to 
our robust and balanced business 
model and the strategic choices 
made over the past few years. Our 
agility and resilience helped us 
remarkably overcome the crisis while 
continuing on our virtuous path. The 
exceptional financial performance 
achieved in 2021-22 – a combination 
of strong sales growth, market share 
gains, pieces shipped and a record 
increase in profitability – enabled us 
to pursue our dynamic shareholder 
return policy. In continuation, we 
made tremendous progress in 
sustainable development, gender 
equality and inclusion. We must 
continue accelerating our growth 
course while tackling today’s 
huge environmental and societal 
challenges. We believe in radically 

16

transforming our Company into an 
ever-more exemplary, responsible, 
and supportive corporate citizen.

Macroeconomic Environment

India showcased strong recovery by 
posting an 8.7% growth. For Indian 
businesses, the financial year 2021-
22 started on a sombre note as the 
Delta variant led to colossal loss of 
lives and livelihoods. Fortunately, 
our vaccination programme gained 
momentum as the year progressed, 
and the deadly strain also subsided. 
By the time the festive season started, 
the country's mood and the business 
environment became quite upbeat. 

In response to the pandemic, the 
Central Bank resorted to strongly 
supportive monetary policy, causing 
interest rates to go down to record 
lows. At the same time, another 
consequence of this policy was 

a surfeit of liquidity – leading to a 
strong rally in prices of many industrial 
commodities, supported by the evolving 
economic recovery, stimulus-related 
demand expectations and certain supply 
side disruptions. This caused inflationary 
pressures on the cost dynamic of several 
manufacturing industries. 

In addition, the war in Ukraine further 
worsened the socio-economic 
situation globally. Lesser developed 
and smaller countries have suffered 
disproportionately as stronger nations 
cornered vaccines and other resources. 

With the vigilance required by the 
current geopolitical context, we will 
continue investing in ever more 
appealing designs, unique experiences 
and further progress in corporate social 
responsibility. We will spur momentum 
over the months ahead by focusing on 
the quest for perfection and creativity 

pearl global industries limitedthat runs through all our professions. 
We will actively pursue our 
commitment to promoting and passing 
on excellence in craftsmanship and 
design professions. We will continue 
to showcase the values that provide 
an endless source of inspiration for 
our designers and the unique heritage 
whose timeless modernity they reveal 
season-after-season, combined with 
our manufacturing capabilities.

Industry Trends

Fashion is one of the world’s most 
important industries, driving a 
significant part of the global economy. 
It is one of the key value-creating 
industries for the world economy. 
Before the Covid-19 pandemic, the 
fashion industry's global revenue was 
estimated between USD 1.7 Trillion 
and USD 2.5 Trillion, according to 
two different research reports by 
Euromonitor and McKinsey. McKinsey 
states that the fashion and apparel 
industry suffered a 20% decline in 
revenues in 2019-20. After lockdown 
restrictions were lifted in many parts 
of the world, consumers headed back 
to the stores. With that, the fashion 
industry returned to pre-pandemic 
levels. According to Euromonitor, 
the world’s apparel retail market 
expectedly enjoyed a 7.5% growth in 
2021-22, which increased to USD 1.84 
Billion in 2022, and a 6.1% growth in 
2022-23 to USD 1.95 Billion in 2023.

Several fundamental and long-term 
macro drivers and opportunities 
influence the industry’s growth 
and evolution. Due to the Covid-19 
interruptions, the shortage of 
skilled labour, and uncertainty 
in the raw material supply chain, 
many underprepared players found 
maintaining their respective market 
shares challenging. Only the fittest 
players with solid balance sheets 
and agile management could survive 
through these challenges relatively 

unscathed. As we tread along, these 

Sustainability Focus

stronger players are the ones to enjoy 

an upper hand further to grow their 

respective market shares within a 

consolidating industry.

Our pro-activeness helped us post 

an exceptional growth, underpinned 

by high-quality innovations and 

rigorous cost control. We reinvested 

significantly in our strategies and 

capabilities to boost our desires while 

improving profitability. 

At the same time, we invested 

in our social and environmental 

commitments, reflecting our goal of 

achieving responsible growth and 

sharing value with all stakeholders.

Pearl Global sees 
value creation as a 
combination of financial 
performance and 
environmental and social 
performance, a guiding 
principle that drives 
our actions on a daily 
basis. We firmly believe 
financial performance 
is inextricably tied to 
social and environmental 
performance. The goal 
is to sustainably create 
value and share the same 
with our Company’s 
entire ecosystem.

We have set our its vision higher 
and pledged to respect planetary 
boundaries – what the planet can 
withstand, as defined by environmental 
science. The strategy is based on 
quantifiable goals to minimise the 
impact of our Company’s activities on 
the climate, water, biodiversity and 
natural resources while helping meet 
some of the most urgent social and 
environmental challenges facing the 
world. 

At Pearl Global, we believe that being 
a member of a society is a fundamental 
obligation. We realise our role in 
crafting a sustainable future and, as a 
result, we will continue to engage in 
socially constructive endeavours. Our 
consistent emphasis on empowering 
lives and making significant 
contributions to the communities 
around us has shaped us. In the midst 
of hardship, Pearl Global flourished and 
took a tremendous leap forward.

Closing Note

I would like to thank our Executive 
Committee and our exceptional teams 
for their passion and energy over the 
past year. I am also grateful to my fellow 
Board members for their unfaltering 
commitment and counsel and their 
flexibility as we worked mostly virtually 
through a very busy agenda. Finally, 
on behalf of everyone at Pearl Global, 
I would like to thank our shareholders, 
customers, bankers and all business 
associates for their steadfast and 
continued support.

AnnuAl report 2021-22corporate overviewstAtutory reportsfinAnciAl stAtementsMuch has changed in the past year 
but I continue to be very proud 
of our teams around the world as 
they adapted to multiple external 
challenges while continuing to 
progress on our brand elevation 
strategy and, critically, staying true to 
our Company’s purpose and values. 
The global context in which Pearl 
Global operates has evolved amid 
the conflict in Ukraine, amplified 
warnings about the climate crisis and 
the ongoing impacts of the Covid-19 
pandemic. Yet our teams showed 
resilience, agility and creativity to drive 
acceleration in full-year revenue and 
record profitability while continuing to 
play a positive role in society.

Business Highlights

Last year, we were in the recovery 

stage, and conquered it with newer 

heights and milestones with a target 

to achieve a better sustainable place 

in society. We could demonstrate the 

durability of our business strategy 

yet again, and provide added value 

to our clients. One of the primary 

reasons behind this is exceptional 

operational competence. Our 

focus is always on offering end-to-

end supply chain solutions to our 

partners while maintaining design, 

technology, innovation, sustainability, 

and quality at the forefront. 

We believe in paving the road for a 
circular economy by minimising waste 
and maximising resource utilisation. 
And our procedures are built to 
facilitate this without sacrificing quality 
or production. This approach has 
enabled us develop an infrastructure 
dedicated to strategic production and 
environmental preservation through 
renewable energy.

As a worldwide corporation, we 
recognise our obligations to our 
partners, workers, stakeholders, 
and society. We ensure that all our 
operations and efforts are coordinated 
to match customer expectations while 
not interfering with our productivity.

18

pearl global industries limitedOur excellent 
relationships with our 
clients and stakeholders 
put us on the path to 
bigger accomplishments 
and new chances. As 
the year progressed 
we capitalised on the 
opportunities and won 
considerable market 
share from other 
manufacturers.

Over the course of our history, 
Pearl Global has consistently 
demonstrated the ability to identify 
promising projects and high-potential 
partnerships. We have secured 
success through a combination 
of smart strategic choices, the 
provision of relevant resources and 
appropriate means, and unique 
expertise. Partnership-based 
expansion remains a powerful 
growth driver for our Company, 
empowering Pearl Global to meet all 
fashion aspirations across the globe. 
Each partnership represents a new 
chapter, a new value chain and new 
expertise.

Towards Society with 
Sustainable Approach

To accomplish sustainability, we 
have always believed in the triple 
bottom line: people, planet, and 
profit. One of the fundamental pillars 
of our social duty is environmental 
sustainability. To fulfill our 

responsibilities as a clothing vendor, 
we have put in place the following 
procedures to achieve the highest level 
of sustainability requirements.

  A framework that enables meeting 

environmental performance 
expectations, ensures regulatory 
compliance, minimises environmental 
risks and establishes & implements 
long-term environmental strategies. 

  A measuring tool that helps us map, 

plan and implement meaningful 
improvements that protect the 
well-being of factory workers, local 
communities and the environment. 

  Adopted the world’s leading 

processing standard for textiles 
made from organic fibers.

As a responsible apparel manufacturer, 
we are dedicated to finding new and 
inventive methods to minimise our 
carbon footprints. One such endeavour 
is using renewable energy in our 
operations. We have taken some 
ongoing sustainable initiatives like using 
eco-friendly fabrics with longer life span, 
environmental impact measurements, 
and solar power generation.

Growth Drivers

Covid-19 and geopolitical situations 
have led to the redistribution of global 
trade shares and recalibration of 
sourcing partners. China +1 provides 
an enormous opportunity for India 
textiles industry to regain leadership as 
a top exporting economy. India textiles 
exports is expected to expand at ~11% 
CAGR to reach USD 65 Billion by 2026 
from pre-Covid-19 level of USD 36 
Billion in 2019. Capex and investments 
are expected to pick up in the sector, 
while productivity and industry 
competitiveness will improve. With the 
improvement in the domestic economy 
and increase in exports, domestic 
production is expected to increase 
substantially to meet the demand. With 

favourable Indian demographics and 
industry dynamics, India is poised to 
become a global textiles hub. 

We, at Pearl Global, stand tall in India 
and across developing nations to 
benefit from the China+1 strategy. 
Our 21 manufacturing facilities spread 
across 4 countries with a presence in 2 
out of 4 supply chain areas will help us 
establish and strengthen our hold as 
an end-to-end supply chain provider. 
Our Concept + Store ability will propel 
this cause, and our fashion trend 
analysis by talented design personnel 
and unique modern techniques will 
help us craft and execute strategies 
based on our robust business model.

We have strong foundations to build 
and accelerate growth in this next 
phase. Our strategy is clear and a 
shared purpose and values unite 
our teams. I am confident that Pearl 
Global will continue demonstrating 
its extraordinary potential, leveraging 
our unique Indian brand to deliver 
sustainable and responsible growth.

Sincere Gratitude

I would like to thank our shareholders 
for believing in our Company’s 
vision and principles, which have 
allowed us to continue our success 
and expansion. Finally, I’d want 
to congratulate our staff for their 
enthusiasm for working and growing 
within the group of firms. We are

AnnuAl report 2021-22corporate overviewstAtutory reportsfinAnciAl stAtementsGoing forward, we will continue to 
work on improving our operational 
efficiencies to enhance our ROCE 
trajectory. A more stable Government 
policies, coupled with our asset-light 
business model, is expected to lead 
us to robust growth in terms of topline 
and bottomline.

Our world has been changing faster 
post the Covid-19 lockdowns. Our 
fashion and apparel industry has 
been adopting and changing quickly 
to keep pace with the changing 
demands of customers – entailing 
big changes in raw materials and 
manufacturing processes. We 
experienced a massive change in 
how we work, as organisations started 
working remotely –  thus, changing 
the place of work and the clothes 

worn to work, as a consequence. 
This fast-paced shift and transition 
have only one loud and clear 
message to give away – it is only 
the nimble and flexible organisations 
that will survive and thrive in this fast-
changing business environment.

We also witnessed another global 
change in the area of transportation 
and international logistics. We 
experienced a higher cost and 
longer transportation time to reach 
international markets. This did not 
directly affect us financially as our 
business is on FOB terms. However, 
the situation is expected to continue 
pushing the global retailers to rework 
their supply chains and lead time for 
creating and manufacturing fashion. 
For 2021-22, we did feel the start 

of inflationary pressure in the western 
economy – a trend which is still 
continuing. Among the major apparel 
export markets, American retailers 
experienced a high pent-up demand 
while EU, the U.K., Japan and Australia 
experienced prolonged lockdowns 
and slower opening. 

We expect the world view of China 
+1 will continue to shape the new 
economic world order. Other Asian 
countries will continue to gain 
manufacturing businesses. Each of 
their performances will depend on their 
infrastructure, available manpower, raw 
materials and the local government 
policies. In our textile and apparel 
world, western retailers continue to 
look for alternatives to China. The 
U.S. and many other countries do not

thus accelerating this business shift. 
India is the largest cotton producer, 
and the Xinjian cotton ban put a lot 
of pressure and demand for Indian 
cotton. As a result, we experienced a 
hike in price and various shortages. 
But, on the positive side, the biggest 
gainers in apparel manufacturing have 
been in Bangladesh and Vietnam, 
followed by India, Pakistan and 
Myanmar. This shift will continue to 
gain momentum despite some major 
western economies’ fear of high 
inflation and recession.

Pearl Global has successfully adapted 
every cycle that fashion retail has 
been through. Our manufacturing 
facilities across Bangladesh, India, 
Vietnam and Indonesia provide us 
with a unique opportunity. We could 
successfully offer multiple products 
and service to our clients at a time 
when various parts of the world were 
shutting down at different times 
due to the spread of Covid-19. This 
ability helped add to the confidence 
amongst our customers as we could 
serve them with the right product at 
the right time.

We completely accredit our ability 
to respond to the unfolding market 
conditions to our Company’s deep 
and longstanding connection 
with the real world of fashion – a 
premise so simple but core to our 
personality. Our business model is 
the result of a winning combination of 
teamwork, talent, creativity, innovation, 
dynamism, efficiency and flexibility – 
an entrenched culture that pushes our 
boundaries beyond comfort zones.

Operational Highlights

Covid-19 led to the redistribution of 
global trade shares and recalibration 
of sourcing partners. China +1 opened 
opportunities for global garment 

players like Pearl Global as we enjoy 
a presence in multiple countries with 
deep penetration into apparel supply 
chains. 

With the acquisition of Alpha, our 
Company’s production capacity is 
anticipated to increase by 6 Million 
pieces per year. Alpha Clothing, 
being Gold Leed Certified facility 
and approved by our major strategic 
buyers, will help us to further 
strengthen our manufacturing 
presence in Bangladesh market and 
fuel incremental growth through new 
customer acquisition and additional 
demand from existing customers. 

Our Strategy for the Road 
Ahead

We are expanding and improving 
our services to our customers across 
various geographies. We bring to the 
table multiple products in the apparel 
basket and from multiple locations. 
We provide our clients with a one-
stop shop catering to most of their 
needs and mitigate their risks as the 
Pearl Global supply chain is across 
multiple locations, avoiding the 
adverse effects of local shutdowns. 
With our in-country offices for our 
customers, we work closely with the 
customers’ product development 
teams to add continuous innovation 
to our offerings.

Ethics & sustainability is at the core of 
our business. We protect our future 
and we take all the responsibility for 
it. With 32,000+ workforce directly 
related to the manufacturing lines, 
we strive to add value to their lives 
in every way, every day. Our vision 
is critical to a conscious approach 
to decreasing our carbon footprints, 
developing and using renewable 
energy across our manufacturing 
units, and conserving water.

Undertaking robust risk management, 
our knowledgeable leadership team 
comprises experienced manufacturing 
and retail sourcing professionals. As 
a team, we intend to play a part in 
setting the course for our Company, 
assuring appropriate business 
practices to mitigate various risks that 
affect manufacturing and the apparel 
manufacturing/supply chain.

Delivery value, we take a customer-
centric approach in which we provide 
products with high quality by adopting 
technology, automation and analytics.

Closing Thoughts

We promise to keep our unique 
business approach and philosophy 
alive and well. It will allow us to 
fully leverage our knowledge and 
vision for the fashion business and 
design, all of which are is vital in our 
sector. In assuming my duties, I am 
confident that I can rely on the best 
team of professionals with perfect 
combination of talent and proven 
experience. I have the assurance 
that comes from knowing that I am 
buoyed by the passion of a group 
of ethically-committed designers 
and product developers, factories, 
logistics, international market and 
corporate service managers who 
make this a leading global company. 
We are thankful to their efforts, we will 
continue to build our Company into 
becoming further of what we aspire to 
be.

Pallab Banerjee 
Managing Director

Global Economy

The year 2021 witnessed the global economy 
recovery, posting a strong 6.1% Y-o-Y growth, after 
having contracted by 3.2% in 2020. Successful 
and large-scale vaccination and a more nuanced 
approach toward restrictions, mitigated the trade-
off between economic growth and Covid-19 
prevention, despite the onslaught of the Delta wave 
in the early part of 2021 and the highly contagious 
Omicron wave in the later part. There has been 
a perceptible fall in Covid-19 stringency indices 
across most parts of the world, including lifting of 
the mask mandate, with most governments having 
adopted an approach of ‘learning to live with the 
virus.’ On the other hand, since March 2022, China 
has been facing its worst Covid-19 surge since the 
pandemic began, and its Zero Covid Policy has 
dented economic activity in the country. With the 
Russia-Ukraine conflict in late February, the narrative 
is shifting from ‘Covid to Conflict’ and global growth 
projections have since then been downgraded in 
view of the economic damage caused by the war, 
with concerns of a prolonged slowdown in China 
adding to the downside risks.

Globally, inflation broadened and acquired 
persistence during 2021, under the impact of 
repetitive shocks. Inflation has emerged as the 
biggest macroeconomic worry for policy-makers 
across the globe, having risen to multi-decade 
highs, especially in advanced countries. Central 
banks have, therefore, started tightening their 
monetary policies and raising interest rates. 
The global economy witnessed severe supply 
chain bottlenecks and shortages (of semi-
conductors, natural gas, coal etc.) as pent-up 
demand overlapped with disrupted production 
and shutting down of ports, and delays in orders 
for new shipping vessels. These shocks severely 
constrained the supply response to the release of 
pent-up demand and pushed up costs and prices. 
Fortunately, the waves turned out to be short-lived 
and global trade recovered, amidst supply and 
logistics bottlenecks, recording a growth of 10.1% 
over the year as a whole. Underpinning this upturn, 
global manufacturing accelerated from 4.2% a year 
ago, to 9.4% in 2021.

market and developing economies than in advanced economies — reflecting more limited policy support and generally slower 
vaccination — with output expected to remain below the pre-pandemic trend throughout the forecast horizon.

Outlook

Indian economy has remained resilient and is well 
placed to deal with the challenges emanating from the 
geopolitical developments. There are sparks in the wind 
that ignite the innate strength of the economy and set 
it on course to becoming the fastest-growing economy 
in the world, though it might be besieged by fears of 
recession. The Indian economy is showing resilience 
and dynamism in spite of the geopolitical situation and 
high-risk aversion in financial markets that is stampeding 
portfolio investors and taking down all currencies against 
the unrelenting strength of the USD. The recent revival 
of the southwest monsoon and rejuvenation of sowing 
activity has raised hopes of another bountiful year 
for agricultural activity, raising expectations that rural 
demand will soon catch up with urban spending and 
consolidate the recovery.

The banking sector remains resilient and strong. Overall, 
the macroeconomic numbers also broadly look alright, 
despite the depreciation of the Indian rupee. So far it

Indian Economy

The Indian economy recovered, with 8.7% 
growth in 2021-22, which mitigated the GDP 
loss experienced in 2020-21. Real GDP in 
2021-22 (2011-12 prices) stood at H 147.3 Lakh 
Crores, surpassing 2019-20’s real GDP (2011-
12 prices) of H 145 Lakh Crores. While growth 
in 2021-22 came on a low base, the economy 
was able to tide over the impact of the two 
pandemic waves during the year. The Delta 
wave in the first quarter of 2021-22 severely 
affected the services sector, after which the 
sector rebounded with sequential opening up 
of high contact sectors. The third wave turned 
out to be short-lived and less debilitating in 
terms of impact on economic activity than the 
first two waves, as a result of higher efficacy 
of the nationwide vaccination drive and better 
adaptability. The success in navigating two 
waves of pandemic was led by coordinated 
efforts from Central and State Governments and 
three tiers of administration along with multiple 
awareness campaigns to quell vaccination 
hesitancy. The services sector has been a key 
driver of India’s turnaround, while the industrial 
sector witnessed a broad-based recovery. 
However, towards the end of the year, growth 
in industrial sector slowed down and became 
uneven, with demand for consumer goods 
particularly being sluggish.

As per RBI, in spite of the severity of the second 
wave, the loss of output in Q1 of 2021-22, was 
about one-third of what was suffered during Q1 
of 2020-21. This resilience and the underlying 
strengthening of the impulses of growth were 
evident in the recommencement of the recovery 
from Q2 of 2021-22 onwards. In fact, the 
third wave, starting end-December 2021, was 
flattened in a month’s time, with infections back 
to levels, as seen at the start of the pandemic. 
Fiscal re-prioritisation of expenditure towards 
infrastructure, robust crop production, ebullient 
export growth in the face of hostile international 
conditions, and congenial monetary and 
financial conditions engendered by the Reserve 
Bank, led to this macroeconomic performance.

pearl global industries limitedhad been among the better-performing currencies in its 
peer group in emerging market nations and others. The 
fiscal deficit [target] which was there in the budget for the 
last year has been achieved. So, overall Indian economy 
continues to be in a resilient position. The recovery is 
getting traction and is reflected in the sense that capacity 
utilisation has improved. The disbursal of bank credit is 
also picking up. Rural and urban demand are also showing 
signs of further improvement and that is how we stand 
today.

Industry Overview

India is one of the leading exporters of textiles and 
clothing, owing to the vast raw material and manufacturing 
base. The sector contributes significantly to the economy, 
both domestically, and through exports. In ranking, India is 
the 6th largest exporter of textile and apparels in the world. 
The domestic Apparel and Textile industry contributes 
5% to country’s earnings and 12% of the country’s export 
earnings. It also owns 7% of the industry’s output in value 
terms. India also produces silk and 95% of the world’s 
hand-woven fabric comes from India. The Technical 
Textiles segment is estimated at USD 16 Billion and 
approximately 6% of the global market. Traditional hand 
weaving, technological textiles, and contemporary textile 
mills are all part of the textile business.

The Fashion industry was in critical situation 
in 2019-20. The year 2020-21, brought many 
opportunities for the Company to grow and 
recover from the situation, with increasing demand 
in the market for fashion and ever-evolving 
trends. India’s Apparel market is estimated at 
USD 59.3 Billion in 2021-22, and the Indian 
Fashion industry is slated to be the 6th largest 
market in the world. In recent years, private labels 
have emerged as the rising stars of retail and 
e-commerce. Private labels or in-house brands, 
typically offer shoppers value for money, while 
earning higher margins for retailers, with potential 
to develop into self-sustaining brands. There is 
also a growing emphasis on enriching customer 
experience. Window displays, in-store ambience, 
coordinated product displays, lighting, music and 
communication help build brand presence and 
awareness. The fashion sales are expected to 
increase in 2021-22, as increasingly optimistic 
consumers release pent-up purchasing power 
and renewing their wardrobes, with social life 
resuming in several important countries across the 
world. While the Luxury sector is predicted to fully 
recover.

Menswear, women's clothing, and children's wear 
are the three primary categories of the Garment 
industry. Women's wear dominates the industry 
in India, followed by men's wear and children's 
wear. The Garment market may also be divided 
into online and offline modes, and luxury and 
non-luxury clothes. The Textile and Clothing sector 
generates 2.3% of India's GDP, 13% of industrial 
production, and 12% of India's exports. The Textile 
industry's market value is estimated to reach 
USD 190 Billion by 2025-26. The clothing business 
alone is predicted to reach USD 135 Billion by 
2025-26, accounting for more than 70% of the 
overall Textile and Apparel market. Given the 
economic sustainability of manufacturing garments 
on any size, India's Apparel sector includes 
numerous small firms. With technology in the way 
and to boost productivity and save operational 
costs, apparel manufacturers are investing in 
computer-controlled embroidery equipment.

Market Share of Apparels 

The textiles sector shows strong growth prospects after 
recovering from the corona virus induced slump. The 
Government’s robust support for the textiles sector raises 
industry players’ hopes that the sector will grow by 300% 
in the next few years, reaching USD 300bn by 2025-2026. 
A primary driver of India’s textile sector’s growth is likely to 
be apparel brands’ increasing diversification of their supply 
chains away from China. Due to increasing manufacturing 
costs and growing tariff issues amidst the US-China trade 
war, international brands had already been seeking to 
reduce their supply chain dependence on China before 
COVID-19. Presently, China’s insistence on adhering to a zero 
COVID strategy, applying quarantine measures to stamp 
out outbreaks as they emerge, risks causing unpredictable 
supply chain disruptions.

pearl global industries limitedDriving Forces:

The availability of abundant raw materials and capabilities 
in value chain of textiles makes India a good base for the 
textile industry. The growth of the textile sector is also 
supported by favourable demographic factors, such as 
growing youth population, rising disposable incomes, rapid 
urbanisation, and rising standards of living, among others. 

The increasing penetration of digitisation over the years, 
which is being provided a great push amid the COVID-19 
restrictions, is also supporting the textile market through 
growth of the online fashion industry. The technical textiles 
segment is also on a rise, led by the growing prevalence 
of industries like medical, construction, etc. The anticipated 
high GDP growth of India by various international and 
national agencies and the demand for Indian textile abroad, 
indicate the potential the textile industry of India holds.

AnnuAl report 2021-22corporAte overviewstatutory reportsfinAnciAl stAtementsGovernment Initiatives

For quite some time, the Ministry of Textiles has been 
discussing the adoption of a New Textile Policy. This New 
Textile Policy was still in draught form, as of October 2021. 
The Policy, among other things, is designed to boost 
textile exports and provide more job opportunities. It is 
being developed through extensive discussions with 
organisations, industry groups, State Governments, and 
other stakeholders, representing cotton, silk, jute, wool, 
handloom, handicrafts, and power loom.

Furthermore, the Government has been supportive to the 
Textile sector, with its extensive growth-oriented policies 
such as Make in India, Aatmanirbhar Bharat, Production-
Linked Incentive Scheme, Mega Textile Parks, Revised 
Restructured Technological Upgradation Fund Scheme 
(RRTUFS), liberalised FDI in textile, and many more. 

The Union and State Governments continued to roll out 
various support initiatives for the textiles sector in H2 
2021-22 and into 2022-23. In August 2021, the Union 
Ministry of Textiles, Commerce and Industry, Consumer 
Affairs & Food and Public Distribution announced the 
establishment of a committee comprising weavers, 
trained equipment makers, marketing experts and other 
stakeholders to recommend ways to boost production 
capacity in the handloom sector from ₹ 600 Billion to  
₹ 1.25 Trillion and quadruple exports from ₹ 25 Billion to 
₹ 100 Billion, within three years.

(Source: EMIS Insights)

The Union Government allocated ₹ 123.8 Billion for the 
textile sector in its Union Budget 2022-23 of which  
₹ 1.3 Billion will be used for the Textile Cluster 
Development Scheme, ₹ 1.0 Billion for the National 
Technical Textiles Mission and ₹ 150 Million each for 
the PM Mega Integrated Textile Region, Apparel Parks 
scheme, and the Production-Linked Incentive Scheme.

(Source: EMIS Insights)

The Federal Indian Government, approved the 
continuance of the Rebate of State and Central Taxes 
and Levies (RoSCTL) at the same rates as issued by 
the Ministry of Textiles for apparel/garments and made-
ups exports. Garment exporters will continue to get 
a tax rebate on their outbound shipments, after the 
Government extended the RoSCTL. This measure is 
intended to boost the competitiveness of the labour-
intensive Textile industry.

pearl global industries limited

MITRA Scheme

Under the scheme, seven mega parks 
will be set up in the country over the 
upcoming three years with plug and 
play facilities, in a bid to create global 
champions in exports.

Extension of RoSCTL 
Scheme

The extension is likely to benefit 
exporters of Apparel/Garment and 
Home Textiles products, since the 
extension till March 31, 2024, ensures 
a stable and predictable policy regime 
for three years.

Notification of 
RoDTEP Rates

The announcement is likely to benefit 
the entire value chain of textiles, since 
exporters can now claim rebate either 
under RoSCTL or RoDEP theme.

Free Trade 
Agreement

With the IndAUS ECTA, India’s exports 
of textiles and apparels are expected 
to go up to USD 1,100 Million in the 
next three years.

Key Trends

Omnichannel Takes Precedence
Earlier, brands believed in building a multi-channel marketing experience where the aim was to reach far 
and wide. Marketers are now looking at going deeper, than wider and therefore, are focusing on fewer 
platforms, but enriching the user experience there. However, omnichannel focuses on quality rather than 
quantity, which is making brands ace their marketing games on platforms, especially like Instagram and 
of course, the e-Commerce platforms.

On the e-Commerce platform and online shops, a great customer experience is entailing easy to access 
information about the clothes and is providing hands on support with scrollable content. This works 
very well in the post-pandemic-led ‘back to office’ time where formal wear for women is taking over and 
more and more brands are highlighting this segment via their social media handles, giving viewers a feel 
of their office fashion.

Fashion Influencers Take Over
Social media platforms remove the obstacles and help establish a more direct connection, where 
consumers can share their ideas or grievances. It is also great for product development and becoming a 
consumer-friendly brand. It is difficult to overlook the importance of influencers, especially the micro-
influencers who create more reasonable and resonating content. This relatability has helped them 
amass true and loyal following that tends to trust their opinions about fashion and lifestyle. Brands are 
seeking this camaraderie between the two and use it to build a tangible presence in the social media 
community, where they are in direct touch with the customers. 

Influx of New Technologies
The meta verse has already infiltrated the fashion industry globally and it is only a matter of time that it 
becomes a vital part of the Indian market as well. For instance, retailers can easily deploy virtual fashion 
to build a hands-on catalogue instead of going for physical dresses that includes time and money.

Another important contribution of Web-3 technology can be its lack of contribution to carbon emissions. 
No logistics, hyper-production or deployment of extra equipment means less resource reliability and 
more sustainability.

Sustainable Fashion
Sustainability is in rage and for all the right reasons. In contrast to fast fashion that relies on use and 
throw models, without considering the rising landfills, sustainable fashion believes in slow production 
and implementation of organic practices. Several brands are incorporating natural fibres only, like hemp 
jute to create durable products. During such processes, the raw materials do not demand an exorbitant 
amount of natural resources and when discarded, go back to the earth without causing any harm.

Such practices are not only good for earth but for traditional communities as well, that are often skilled 
at creating sustainable products. This can help boost the Indian economy as well.

Company Overview

Pearl Global Industries Limited, is a worldwide clothing 
manufacturing corporation that provides end-to-end 
supply chain solutions to global brands with our 
integrated production capabilities centred on Design 
and Development, Global Manufacturing, Marketing 
and Distribution, and Sourcing and Supply Chain. The 
Company develops apparels for all genders and age 
groups across locations and style preferences. The 
Company has 21 state-of-the-art manufacturing plants 
across four countries, including India (Gurugram, 
Chennai and Bengaluru), Indonesia, Bangladesh, 
Vietnam and has design centres in India, Indonesia, 
Bangladesh, Vietnam, U.S.A, Spain, Hong Kong and 
U.K.

Our product portfolio includes outer wear, active

amongst all countries. Our marquee clientele includes 
Kohls, Macy’s, Tommy Hilfiger, Gap, Old Navy, NEXT, 
Nordstrom, among others.

India is one of the favourite business locations for global 
retailers. According to the Global Retailer Development 
Index, retail in developing countries has grown 
tremendously. As the developing world's population has 
grown by 21% to 6.2 Billion, retail sales in those markets 
have increased more than 350% and represent more than 
half of total global retail sales. India was ranked second, 
with retail sales of USD 1,009 Billion among 30 emerging 
markets. India’s huge market potential, fast growth and 
improved ease of doing business moved it into second 
place. India is now the world’s fastest-growing major 
economy, overtaking China. In e-commerce, the Indian 
Government now permits 100% FDI for online marketplaces, 
with some caveats to create a level playing field. Overall, 
the rule is expected to boost market entry in the online 
space. This has increased the demand for apparel and non-
apparel manufacturing in the country, thus creating demand 
amongst manufacturers.

Company Outlook

With the opening up of activities we are confident about 
our future. Our capabilities and partnerships will help 
us drive the next set of growth helping us benefit from 
the tailwinds in demand from international markets. Our 
multinational presence will enable us to cater to clients 
across geographies, thereby moving with the trend and 
offering the best of the industry. With further normalisation 
of COVID-19 situation and change in consumers’ buying 
preferences will help us retain strong traction. We will 
continue to deploy strategies that will help us improve 
capacity utilisations. The commencement of Bangladesh 
factory and partnership facility in India and Vietnam will 
further help us leverage our expertise to strengthen our 
brand presence in the industry.

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  of  the  standalone  financial 

statements  in  accordance  with  the  Standards  on  Auditing 

(SAs)  specified  under  section  143(10)  of  the  Act.  Our 

responsibilities under those Standards are further described 

in  the  Auditor’s  Responsibilities  for  the  Audit  of  the 

Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We 

are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code 

of  Ethics  issued  by  the  Institute of  Chartered  Accountants 

of  India  (ICAI)  together  with  the  ethical  requirements 

that  are  relevant  to  our  audit  of  the  standalone  financial 

statements  under  the  provisions  of  the  Act  and  the  Rules 

made  thereunder,  and  we  have  fulfilled  our  other  ethical 

responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and 

the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence 

we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a 

basis for our opinion on the standalone financial statements

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional 

judgment,  were  of  most  significance  in  our  audit  of  the 

standalone  financial  statements  of  the  current  year. 

These  matters  were  addressed  in  the  context  of  our  audit 

of  the  standalone  financial  statements  as  a  whole,  and 

in  forming  our  opinion  thereon,  and  we  do  not  provide  a 

separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the 

matters described below to be the key audit matters to be 

communicated in our report w.r.t the Company:

Key Audit Matter 
Assessment of impairment of investments in subsidiaries

As disclosed in note 8 of standalone financial statements, 
the  Company  has 
in  subsidiaries  of  
investments 
  11,761.04  lakh  (March  31,  2021:    11,578.00  lakh).  Such 
less  allowance  for 
investments  are  carried  at  cost 
impairment.

The  Company  analyses  regularly  for 
indicators  of 
impairment  of  these  investments  by  reference  to  the 
requirements under relevant Ind AS.

We identified the annual impairment assessment as a key 
audit matter because carrying value of these investments 
is significant, assessment process is complex, judgmental 
by  nature,  significant  changes  in  business  environment 
specifically  due  to  outbreak  of  COVID-19  and  further,  is 
based  on  assumptions  on  projected  future  cash  inflows, 
expected growth rate, discount rate etc.

How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
In  view  of  the  significance  of  the  matter  we  applied  the  following 
audit  procedures  in  this  area,  among  others  to  obtain  sufficient 
appropriate audit evidence:

  Obtained  an  understanding  of  Management’s  process  for 
identification  of  impairment  indicators.  Assessed  design, 
implementation and operating effectiveness of key controls in 
respect of impairment allowance process. 

 

 

Inquired  from  the  Management  of  the  business  plans  for 
the subsidiary companies. We also referred to the economic 
conditions prevalent in the jurisdiction in which the subsidiary 
company operates. 

In cases where such indicators of impairment of investments 
existed, 

- 

- 

Tested  the  estimates  and  assumption  made  by  the 
Company in calculation of the recoverable amounts, and 
the allowance for impairment for these investments.

Tested  the  arithmetical  accuracy  of  the  computation  of 
recoverable amounts of investments.

Key Audit Matter 

How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter

- 

- 

Evaluated the forecast of future cash flows used by the 
management  in  the  model  to  compute  the  recoverable 
value.

Assessment  of  accuracy  of  historical  forecasting  by 
comparing previously forecasted cash flows to actual.

  Discussed  with  the  component  auditors  to  develop  an 
understanding  of  the  operating  performance  and  net  worth 
position of the subsidiaries. 

Based  on  our  procedures,  we  also  considered  the  adequacy  of 
disclosures in respect of investment in these subsidiaries in Note 
8  to  the  standalone  financial  statements  including  whether  the 
disclosures  on  key  judgements,  assumptions  and  quantitative 
data  with  respect  to  impairment  loss  allowance  in  the  financial 
statements are appropriate and sufficient.
Our procedures included the following steps: 

  Obtaining  an  understanding  of  the  Company’s  policies  and 
procedures  in  respect  of  identification  of  related  parties  and 
transactions  with  them.  We  also  traced  the  related  parties 
from declaration given by directors, wherever applicable.

Adequacy  and  completeness  of  disclosures  of  Related 
Party Transactions

Refer Note 46 to the accompanying standalone financial 
statements  as  at  March  31,  2022  for  the  disclosure  of 
related parties and transactions with them.

The Company has related party transactions which include 
among others, sale/purchase of goods to its subsidiaries 
and other related parties. This area was significant to our 
audit due to the following reasons:

  Read  the  minutes  of  the  meetings  of  Board  of  Directors 
and  Audit  Committee  and  verified  that  the  transactions  are 
approved  in  accordance  with  internal  procedures  and  the 
applicable regulations to the Company.

- 

- 

the  significance  of  transactions  with  related  parties 
during the year ended March 31, 2022; and

related party transactions are subject to compliance 
requirement  under  the  Companies  Act,  2013  and 
SEBI (listing and Obligation Disclosure Requirement) 
2015.

  Tested  on  a  sample  basis  the  arrangements  between  the 
related parties along with supporting documents to evaluate 
the  management’s  assertions  that  the  transactions  were  at 
arm’s length and in the ordinary course of business.

 

Evaluated  and  tested  on  a  sample  basis  the  rights  and 
obligations  of  the  related  parties  and  assessed  whether  the 
transactions  were  recorded  appropriately  and  disclosed  in 
accordance  with  IND  AS  24,  Companies  Act,  2013  and  SEBI 
(LODR), 2015.

  Wherever appropriate, our substantive work was supplemented 
by controls testing work which encompassed understanding, 
evaluating and testing key controls in respect of Related Party 
Transactions.

Our  procedures  as  mentioned  above  did  not  identify  any  findings 
that are significant for the financial statements as whole in respect 
of  accounting,  presentation  and  disclosure  of  Related  Party 
Transactions.

the  Standalone  Financial 

The  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  is  responsible  for 
the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises 
the  information  included  in  the  annual  report,  but  does 
not  include  the  standalone  financial  statements  and  our 
auditor’s report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to 
be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.

Our  opinion  on  the  standalone  financial  statements  does 
not cover the other information and we do not express any 
form of assurance conclusion thereon.

112

In  connection  with  our  audit  of  the  standalone  financial 
statements, our responsibility is to read the other information 
when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether 
the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent  with  the 
standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained 
in the 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 are required to report that fact. 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Contd.)

Responsibility  of  Management  and  Those  Charged  with 
Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

• 

total  comprehensive 

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, 
income, 
changes  in  equity  and  cash  flows  of  the  Company  in 
accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles 
generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes 
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance 
with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets 
of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and 
other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate 
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 from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Board 
of  Directors  is  responsible  for  assessing  the  Company’s 
ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  disclosing,  as 
applicable,  matters  related  to  going  concern  and  using 
the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  unless  Board  of 
Directors  either  intends  to  liquidate  the  Company  or  to 
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing 
the Company’s financial reporting process. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 
Financial Statements 

Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about 
whether  the  standalone  financial  statements  as  a  whole 
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud 
or  error,  and  to  issue  an  auditor’s  report  that  includes  our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, 
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it 
exists. 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 standalone 
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  standalone  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  controls  with  reference  to  financial 
statements 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 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 
Company’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 Company 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. 

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 

113

CORPORATE OVERVIEWSTATUTORY REPORTSFINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021-22 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Contd.)

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.

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITEDNotes
to standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022

1 CORPORATE INFORMATION

Pearl Global Industries Limited  is a public limited Company 
domiciled  in  India  and  has  its  registered  office  at  C-17/1 
Paschimi  Marg,  Vasant  Vihar,  New  Delhi,  South  West 
Delhi,  Delhi,  110057.  The  Company  is  primarily  engaged 
in  manufacturing,  sourcing  and  export  of  ready  to  wear 
apparels  through  its  facilities  and  operations  in  India  and 
overseas. The Company has its primary listings on Bombay 
Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange in India.

The  financial  statements  were  authorised  for  issue  in 
accordance  with  a  resolution  of  the  board  of  directors  on 
May 25, 2022.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND MEASUREMENT

Statement  of  Compliance:  The  Financial  Statements 
are  prepared  on  an  accrual  basis  under  historical  cost 
Convention  except  for  certain  financial  instruments  which 
are measured at fair value. These financial statements have 
been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the  Indian  Accounting 
Standards  (Ind  AS)  as  prescribed  under  Section  133  of 
the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian 
Accounting  Standards)  Rules,  2015  as  amended  and 
other  relevant  provisions  of  the  Companies  Act,  2013,  as 
applicable.

The  accounting  policies  are  applied  consistently  to  all  the 
periods presented in the financial statements.

Basis  of  Preparation  and  presentation:  The  financial 
statements are prepared under the historical cost convention 
except  for  certain  financial  assets  and  liabilities  (including 
derivative  financial  instruments)  that  are  measured  at  fair 
value or amortised cost.

All  assets  and  liabilities  have  been  classified  as  current  or 
noncurrent  according  to  the  Company’s  operating  cycle 
and other criteria set out in the Act. Based on the nature of 
products and the time between the acquisition of assets for 
processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, 
the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as twelve 
months for the purpose of current non-current classification 
of assets and liabilities.

Functional and Presentation Currency

The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  `  which  is  its 
functional  &  presentational  currency  and  all  values  are 
rounded to the nearest Lakh upto two decimal places except 
otherwise stated.

Going Concern

The board of directors have considered the financial position 
of the Company at  March 31, 2022 and the projected cash 

flows and financial performance of the Company for at least 
twelve months from the date of approval of these financial 
statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement 
actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability 
remains on course.

The  board  of  directors  have  taken  actions  to  ensure  that 
appropriate  long-term  cash  resources  are  in  place  at 
the  date  of  signing  the  accounts  to  fund  the  Company’s 
operations.

Prior financial year reclassification of current maturities of 
long term borrowings:

During  the  current  financial  year,  to  comply  with  the 
requirements  of  admendments  made  in  Schedule  III  to 
the  Companies  Act,  2013  which  is  effective  from  financial 
year commencing on or after April 01, 2021, the Company 
reclassified current maturities of long term borrowings from 
“Other Financial Liabillty” to “Short Term Borrowings”. This 
reclassification more  appropriately  reflects  the borrowings 
of  the  Company.  Prior  financial  year  comparatives  have 
been restated to align to the current financial year approach. 
The  impact  of  this  reclassification  on  prior  financial  year 
amounts has been a reduction in Other financial liability by 
`  1,998.68  Lakh  and  corresponing  increase  in  short  term 
borrowings.

Recent  accounting  pronouncements  notified  by  Ministry 
of Corporate Affairs are as under:- 

Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standard 
or amendments to the existing standards under Companies 
(Indian  Accounting  Standards)  Rules  as  issued  from  time 
to time. On March 23, 2022, MCA amended the Companies 
(Indian  Accounting  Standards)  Amendment  Rules,  2022, 
applicable from April 1, 2022, as below: 

a) 

Ind AS 103 – Reference to Conceptual Framework 
The amendments specify that to qualify for recognition 
as  part  of  applying  the  acquisition  method,  the 
identifiable  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed 
must meet the definitions of assets and liabilities in the 
Conceptual  Framework  for  Financial  Reporting  under 
Indian Accounting Standards (Conceptual Framework) 
issued  by  the  Institute  of  Chartered  Accountants  of 
India  at  the  acquisition  date.  These  changes  do  not 
significantly  change  the  requirements  of  Ind  AS  103. 
The Company does not expect the amendment to have 
any significant impact in its financial statements

b) 

Ind AS 16 – Proceeds before intended use 

The  amendments  mainly  prohibit  an  entity  from 
deducting  from  the  cost  of  property,  plant  and 
items 
equipment  amounts  received  from  selling

produced  while  the  Company  is  preparing  the  asset 
for  its  intended  use.  Instead,  an  entity  will  recognise 
such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss. 
The  Company  does  not  expect  the  amendments  to 
have any impact in its recognition of its property, plant 
and equipment in its financial statements

c) 

Ind AS 37 – Onerous Contracts - Costs of Fulfilling a 
Contract

The amendments specify that that the ‘cost of fulfilling’ 
a contract comprises the ‘costs that relate directly to 
the contract’. Costs that relate directly to a contract can 
either  be  incremental  costs  of  fulfilling  that  contract 
(examples  would  be  direct  labour,  materials)  or  an 
allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling 
contracts. The amendment is essentially a clarification 
and the Company does not expect the amendment to 
have any significant impact in its financial statements.

Use of Estimates and Judgements 

The key assumptions concerning the future and other 
key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting 
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material 
adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and 
liabilities  within  the  next  financial  year,  are  described 
below.  The  Company  based  its  assumptions  and 
estimates on parameters available when the financial 
statements  were  prepared.  Existing  circumstances 
and assumptions about future developments, however, 
may change due to market changes or circumstances 
arising  that  are  beyond  the  control  of  the  Company. 
Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when 
they  occur.  Also,  the  Company  has  made  certain 
judgements  in  applying  accounting  policies  which 
have an effect on amounts recognised in the financial 
statements.

d) 

Ind AS 109 – Annual Improvements to Ind AS (2021)

i) 

 Income taxes 

The amendment clarifies which fees an entity includes 
when  it  applies  the  ‘10  percent’  test  of  Ind  AS  109  in 
assessing  whether  to  derecognise  a  financial  liability. 
The Company does not expect the amendment to have 
any significant impact in its financial statements.

e) 

Ind AS 116 – Annual Improvements to Ind AS (2021)

The  amendments  remove  the 
illustration  of  the 
reimbursement  of  leasehold  improvements  by  the 
lessor  in  order  to  resolve  any  potential  confusion 
regarding the treatment of lease incentives that might 
arise because of how lease incentives were described 
in  that  illustration.  The  Company  does  not  expect 
the  amendment  to  have  any  significant  impact  in  its 
financial statements.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)  Significant  accounting  judgements,  estimates  and 

assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity 
with Ind AS requires management to make judgements, 
estimates and assumptions that affect the application 
of  accounting  policies  and  the  reported  amount  of 
assets,  liabilities,  income,  expenses  and  disclosures 
of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of 
these  financial  statements  and  the  reported  amount 
of  revenues  and  expenses  for  the  years  presented. 
the  estimates. 
Actual 
Estimates  and  underlying  assumptions  are  reviewed 
at  each  balance  sheet  date.  Revisions  to  accounting 
estimates  are  recognised  in  the  period  in  which  the 
estimates are revised and future periods affected.

results  may  differ 

from 

126

The  Company  is  subject  to  income  tax  laws  as 
applicable in India. Significant judgment is required 
in determining provision for income taxes. There 
are many transactions and calculations for which 
the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during 
the  ordinary  course  of  business.  The  Company 
recognises  liabilities  for  anticipated  tax  issues 
based  on  estimates  of  whether  additional  taxes 
will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these 
matters  is  different  from  the  amounts  that  were 
initially  recorded,  such  differences  will  impact 
the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the 
period in which such determination is made. Where 
tax positions are uncertain, accruals are recorded 
within income tax liabilities for management’s best 
estimate of the ultimate liability that is expected 
to arise based on the specific circumstances and 
the  Company’s  historical  experience.  Factors 
that may have an impact on current and deferred 
taxes  include  changes  in  tax  laws,  regulations 
or  rates,  changing  interpretations  of  existing  tax 
laws or regulations, future levels of research and 
development  spending  and  changes  in  pre-tax 
earnings.

ii)  Contingencies 

Contingent Liabilities may arise from the ordinary 
course  of  business  in  relation  to  claims  against 
the  Company,  including  legal  and  other  claims. 
By  virtue  of  their  nature,  contingencies  will  be 
resolved only when one or more uncertain future 
events  occur  or  fail  to  occur.  The  assessment 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES
to standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

of  the  existence,  and  potential  quantum,  of 
contingencies inherently involves  the exercise  of 
significant judgements and the use of estimates 
regarding the outcome of future events. 

iii)  Recoverability of deferred taxes

In  assessing  the  recoverability  of  deferred  tax 
assets,  management  considers  whether  it  is 
probable  that  taxable  profit  will  be  available 
against  which  the  losses  can  be  utilised.  The 
ultimate  realisation  of  deferred  tax  assets  is 
dependent upon the generation of future taxable 
income during the periods in which the temporary 
differences  become  deductible.  Management 
considers  the  projected  future  taxable  income 
and  tax  planning  strategies 
in  making  this 
assessment.

iv)  Defined benefit plans

The present value of the gratuity and compensated 
absences  are  determined  using  actuarial 
valuations.  An  actuarial  valuation 
involves 
making various assumptions that may differ from 
actual developments in the future. These include 
the  determination  of  the  discount  rate,  future 
salary  increases  and  mortality  rates.  Due  to  the 
complexities  involved  in  the  valuation  and  its 
long-term  nature,  a  defined  benefit  obligation  is 
highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. 
All  assumptions  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting 
date. 

The  parameter  most  subject  to  change  is  the 
discount  rate.  In  determining  the  appropriate 
discount  rate  for  plans  operated  in  India,  the 
actuary considers the interest rates of government 
bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies 
of  the  post-employment  benefit  obligation.  The 
mortality  rate  is  based  on  publicly  available 
mortality tables for the specific countries. Those 
mortality tables tend to change only at interval in 
response to demographic changes. Future salary 
increases  and  gratuity  increases  are  based  on 
expected  future  inflation  rates  for  the  respective 
countries. 

v)  Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Company reviews the useful life of property, 
plant and equipment at the end of each reporting 
period.  This  reassessment  may  result  in  change 
in depreciation expense in future periods.

vi)  Leases

assessing  whether 

Where the Company is the lessee, key judgements 
include 
arrangements 
contain  a lease and determining the lease term. 
To  assess  whether  a  contract  contains  a  lease 
requires judgement about whether it depends on 
a  specified  asset,  whether  the  Company  obtains 
substantially  all  the  economic  benefits  from  the 
use  of  that  asset  and  whether  the  the  Company 
has  a  right  to  direct  the  use  of  the  asset.  In 
order  to  determine  the  lease  term  judgement  is 
required  as  extension  and  termination  options 
have  to  be  assessed  along  with  all  facts  and 
circumstances  that  may  create  an  economic 
incentive  to  exercise  an  extension  option,  or  not 
exercise  a  termination  option.  The  Company 
revises the lease term if there is a change in the 
non-cancellable  period  of  a  lease.  Estimates 
include  calculating  the  discount  rate  which  is 
generally  based  on  the  incremental  borrowing 
rate  specific  to  the  lease  being  evaluated  or  for 
a  portfolio  of  leases  with  similar  characteristics. 
lessor,  the

treatment  of 
determined by whether the lease is considered to 
be  an  operating  or  finance  lease.  In  making  this 
assessment, management looks at the substance 
of the lease, as well as the legal form, and makes 
a judgement about whether substantially all of the 
risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  are  transferred. 
Arrangements  which  do  not  take  the  legal  form 
of  a  lease  but  that  nevertheless  convey  the 
right  to  use  an  asset  are  also  covered  by  such 
assessments.

vii)  Amortisation of Government Grants

Grants  are  amortised  to  Profit  and  Loss  on  a 
straight  -  line  basis  over  the  expected  lives  of 
related assets and presented within other income.

viii)  Impairment of financial instruments

The  Company  analyses  regularly  for  indicators 
of  impairment  of  its  financial  instruments  by 
reference to the requirements under relevant Ind 
AS.

b)  Current versus non-current classification

The  Company  presents  assets  and 
in 
the  balance  sheet  based  on  current/  non-current 
classification. 

liabilities 

Assets:

An asset is treated as current when it is:

a) 

Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or 
consumed in normal operating cycle.

b)  Held primarily for the purpose of trading

c) 

Expected  to  be  realised  within  twelve  months 
after the reporting period, or

d)  Cash  or  cash  equivalent  unless  restricted  from 
being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at 
least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. 

Liabilities:

A liability is current when:

(a) 
(b) 

(c) 

It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle 
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

It is due to be settled within twelve months after 
the reporting period, or 

(d)  There  is  no  unconditional  right  to  defer  the 
settlement  of  the  liability  for  at  least  twelve 
months  after  the  reporting  period  All  other 
liabilities are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-
current assets and liabilities.

Operating  cycle:  The  operating  cycle  is  the  time 
between the acquisition of assets for processing and 
their  realisation  in  cash  and  cash  equivalents.  The 
Company has identified twelve months as its operating 
cycle.

c)  Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Depreciation

Property,  plant  and  equipment  and  capital  work 
in  progress  are  stated  at  cost  less  accumulated 
depreciation  and  accumulated  impairment  losses, 
if  any.  Such  cost  includes  expenditure  that  is  directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of 
self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials 
and direct services, any other costs directly attributable 
to bringing the assets to its working condition for their 
intended  use  and  cost  of  replacing  part  of  the  plant 
and  equipment  and  borrowing  costs  for  long-term 
construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. 

128

When parts of an item of PPE having significant costs 
have different useful lives, then they are accounted for 
as  separate  items  (major  components)  of  property, 
plant & equipment.

An  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  any 
significant  part  initially  recognised  is  de-recognised 
upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are 
expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-
recognition  of  the  asset  (calculated  as  the  difference 
between  the  net  disposal  proceeds  and  the  carrying 
amount  of  the  asset)  is  included  in  the  statement  of 
profit and loss.

Items of stores and spares that meet the definition of 
property,  plant  and  equipment  are  capitalised  at  cost 
and depreciated over their useful life. Otherwise, such 
items are classified as inventories.

Transition  to  Ind  AS:  On  transition  to  Ind  AS,  the 
Company  has  elected  to  continue  with  the  carrying 
value  of  all  its  property,  plant  and  equipment  as  at  1 
April  2016,  measured  as  per  the  previous  GAAP,  and 
use  that  carrying  value  as  the  deemed  cost  of  such 
property, plant and equipment.

Subsequent costs: The cost of replacing a part of an 
item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in 
the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and 
equipment,  if  it  is  probable  that  the  future  economic 
benefits  embodied  within  the  part  will  flow  to  the 
Company  and  its  cost  can  be  measured  reliably  with 
the  carrying  amount  of  the  replaced  part  getting 
derecognised.  The  cost  for  day-to-day  servicing 
of  property,  plant  and  equipment  are  recognised  in 
statement of profit and loss as and when incurred.

Decommissioning  Costs  :  The  present  value  of  the 
expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset, if 
any,  after its use is included in the cost of the respective 
asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. 
(as applicable)

Capital  work  in  progress:  Capital  work  in  progress 
comprises the cost of property, plant & equipment that 
are  not  ready  for  their  intended  use  at  the  reporting 
date.

Cost  comprises  of  purchase  cost,  related  acquisition 
expenses, borrowing costs and other direct expenditure.

: 
Depreciation: 
Depreciation  is  provided  on  a  pro-rata  basis  on 
the  straight-line  basis  on  the  estimated  useful  life 
prescribed under Schedule II to Companies Act , 2013 
with the following exception :

- 

- 

Property, plant & equipment costing upto  ` 5,000 
has  been  fully  depreciated  during  the  financial 
year

Leasehold land has been amortised over the lease 
term.

- 

Freehold Land is not depreciated.

Depreciation  Method,  useful  lives  and  residual  values 
are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted, if 
appropriate.

d) 

Investment Properties

Property  that  is  held  for  rental  yields  or  for  capital 
appreciation  or  both,  and  that  is  not  occupied  by 
the  Company,  is  classified  as  investment  property. 
Investment property is measured at its cost, including 
related 
transaction  costs  and  where  applicable 
borrowing  costs  less  depreciation  and  impairment  if 
any.

The  Company,  based  on  technical  assessment  made 
by  management,  depreciates 
the  building  over 
estimated  useful  life  of  60  years.  The  management 
believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic 
and reflect fair approximation of the period over which 
the assets are likely to be used.

Transition  to  Ind  AS:  On  transition  to  Ind  AS,  the 
Company  has  elected  to  continue  with  the  carrying 
value of all its investment properties as at 1 April 2016, 
measured  as  per  the  previous  GAAP,  and  use  that 
carrying value as the deemed cost of such investment 
properties.

e)  Other Intangible assets

Recognition and measurement

Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company are 
measured initially at cost. Intangible assets with finite 
useful  lives  are  measured  at  cost  less  accumulated 
amortisation  and  accumulated  impairment  losses,  if 
any.  All  expenditures,  qualifying  as  Intangible  Assets 
are amortised over estimated useful life. 

Transition to Ind AS

On  transition  to  Ind  AS,  the  Company  has  elected  to 
continue  with  the  carrying  value  of  all  its  intangible 
assets  recognised  as  at  April  01,  2016,  measured  as 
per the previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as 
the deemed cost of such intangible assets.

Subsequent  Expenditure:  Subsequent  expenditure  is 
capitalised only when it increases the future economic 

benefits  embodied  in  the  specific  asset  to  which  it 
relates. All other expenditure is recognised in Statement 
of Profit and Loss as incurred.

Amortisation  and  useful  lives:  Intangible  assets  with 
finite lives are amortised over the useful life and these 
are  assessed  for  impairment  whenever  there  is  an 
indication  that  the  intangible  asset  may  be  impaired. 
The amortisation period and the amortisation method 
for  an  intangible  asset  with  a  finite  useful  life  are 
reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. 
Changes  in  the  expected  useful  life  or  the  expected 
pattern  of  consumption  of  future  economic  benefits 
embodied  in  the  asset  are  considered  to  modify  the 
amortisation  period  or  method,  as  appropriate,  and 
are  treated  as  changes  in  accounting  estimates.  The 
amortisation  expense  on  intangible  assets  with  finite 
lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss 
unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of 
another asset. The amortisation method, residual value 
and the useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed 
annually  and  adjusted  as  necessary.  Specialised 
softwares  are  amortised  over  a  period  of  3  years  or 
license period whichever is earlier.

f)  Borrowing costs

the  borrowing  of 

Borrowing costs consists of interest and amortisation 
of  ancillary  costs  that  an  entity  incurs  in  connection 
with 
funds.  Borrowing  costs 
directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition,  construction 
or  production  of  an  asset  that  necessarily  takes  a 
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended 
use  or  sale  are  capitalised  as  part  of  the  cost  of  the 
asset.  All  other  borrowing  costs  are  expensed  in  the 
period  in  which  they  occur.  Borrowing  costs  consist 
of  interest  and  other  costs  that  an  entity  incurs  in 
connection  with  the  borrowing  of  funds.  Borrowing 
cost also includes exchange differences to the extent 
regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.

g)  Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations 

Functional and presentational currency

The Company’s financial statements are presented in 
Indian Rupees ( ` in Lakhs) which is also the Company’s 
functional currency. Functional currency is the currency 
of  the  primary  economic  environment  in  which  a 
Company  operates  and  is  normally  the  currency  in 
which the Company primarily generates and expends 
cash. All the financial information presented in ` except 
where otherwise stated.

Transactions and balances

Transactions 
in  foreign  currencies  are  translated 
into  the  functional  currency  of  the  Company  at 
the  exchange  rates  at  the  date  the  transactions  or 
an  average  rate  if  the  average  rate  approximates 
the  actual  rate  at  the  date  of  the  transaction. 
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign 
currencies are translated into the functional currency at 
the exchange rate at the reporting date.Non-monetary 
assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in 
a foreign currencies are translated into the functional 
currency  at  the  exchange  rate  when  the  fair  value 
was  determined.  Non-monetary  assets  and  iabilities 
that  are  measured  in  terms  of  historical  cost  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  foreign  currency 
borrowings  relating  to  assets  under  construction  for 
future productive use, which are included in the cost of 
those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment 
to interest costs on those foreign currency borrowings.

Advaces  received  or  paid  in  foreign  currency  are 
recognised at exchange rate on the date of transaction 
and not re-translated.

h)  Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue primarily from  export of  
manufactured and traded goods.

Revenue from contract with customers 

Revenue  from  contract  with  customers  is  recognised 
when control of the goods or services are transferred 
to  the  customer  at  an  amount  that  reflects  the 
consideration  to  which  the  Company  expects  to  be 
entitled in exchange for transferring distinct goods or 
services  to  a  customer  as  specified  in  the  contract, 
excluding  the  amount  collected  on  behalf  of  third 
parties(for  example,  taxes  and  duties  collected  on 
behalf of government) and net of returns & discounts. 
The  Company  has  concluded  that  it  is  acting  as 
principal in its revenue arrangements.

The  Company  considers  whether  there  are  other 
promises in the contract that are separate performance 
obligations to which a protion of the transaction price 
needs  to  be  allocated.  In  determining  the  transaction 
price for the sale of products, the Company considers 
the  effect  of  variable  consideration,  the  existence 
of  significant  financing  component,  non-cash 
consideration,  and  consideration  payable  to  the 
customer (if any).

130

The  Company  assesses  its  revenue  arrangements 
against  specific  recognition  criterior  like  exposure 
to  significant  risks  &  rewards  associated  with  the 
sale  of  goods  or  services.  When  deciding  the  most 
appropriate  basis  for  presenting  revenue  or  costs 
of  revenue,  both  the  legal  form  and  substance  of  the 
agreement  between  the  Company  and  its  Customers 
are reviewed to determine each party’s respective role 
in the transaction.

Specific revenue recognition criteria:

(i)  Sale of products

Revenue  from  sale  of  products  is  recognised 
at  the  point  in  time  when  control  of  product  is 
transferred to the customer. In case of Export sale 
it is on the basis of date of airway bill/bill of lading

(ii)   Job work  income

Revenue  from    job  work  on  the  product    is 
recognised  at  the  point  in  time  when  control  of  
services  is transferred to the customer, generally 
on the  delivery of the product after completion of 
job work.

(iii)  Export Incentives

Export  Incentives  under  various  schemes  are 
accounted in the year of export.

(iv)  Other Incomes

a)  Sale of software/ SAP income is recognised 
at the delivery of complete module & patches 
group 
(through 
companies).

reimbursement 

from 

b)  Rental  Income  is  recognised    on  accrual 

basis as per the terms of agreement.

c) 

In  respect  of  interest  income,  revenue  is 
recognised  on  the  time  proportion  basis, 
taking into account the amount outstanding 
and the rate of interest applicable.

d)  Dividend  Income  is  recognised  when  the 

right to receive is established.

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  in  exchange 
for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable 
consideration  is  estimated  at  contract  inception  and 
constrained until it is highly probable that a significant 
revenue reversal in the amount of revenue recognised 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES
to standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the 
variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Significant Financing Component

Generally,  the  Company  does  not  receive  short  term 
or  long  term  advances  from  its  customers  except  in 
certain scenarios. Using the practical expedient in Ind 
AS  115,  the  Company  does  not  adjust  the  promised 
amount of consideration for the effects of a significant 
financing component if it expects, at contract inception, 
that the period between the transfer of promised good 
or  service  to  the  customer  and  when  the  customer 
pays for good or service will be one year or less. The 
Company does not expect to have any contracts where 
the  period  between  the  transfer  of  promised  goods 
and  services  to  the  customer  and  payment  by  the 
customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, it does 
not  adjust  any  of  the  transaction  prices  for  the  time 
value of money.

Contract balances 

Contract assets 

A  contract  asset  is  the  right  to  consideration  in 
exchange  for  goods  or  services  transferred  to  the 
customer.  If  the  Company  performs  by  transferring 
goods or services to a customer before the customer 
pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract 
asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is 
conditional.

Trade receivables

A  receivable  represents  the  Company’s  right  to  an 
amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only 
the passage of time is required before payment of the 
consideration  is  due).  Refer  to  accounting  policies  of 
financial  assets  in  section  Financial  instruments  – 
initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

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  transfers  goods 
or  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.

Cost to obtain a contract

The  Company  does  not  capitalise  costs  to  obtain  a 
contract  because  majorly  the  contracts  have  terms 

that  do  not  extend  beyond  one  year.  The  Company 
does not have a significant amount of capitalised costs 
related to fulfilment.

i) 

Inventories

i) 

ii) 

iii) 

Inventories  of  finished  goods  manufactured  by 
the Company are valued style-wise and at lower 
of  cost  and  estimated  net  realisable  value.  Cost 
includes material cost on weighted average basis 
and  appropriate  share  of  overheads  incurred 
in  bringing  them  to  their  present  location  and 
condition. In the case of manufactured inventories 
an 
and  work-in-progress, 
appropriate  share  of  fixed  production  overheads 
based on normal operating capacity..

includes 

cost 

Inventories of finished goods (traded) are valued 
at  lower  of  procurement  cost  (FIFO  method)  or 
estimated net realisable value.

Inventories  of  raw  material,  work  in  progress, 
accessories  &  consumables  are  valued  at  cost 
(weighted  average  method)  or  at  estimated 
net  realisable  value  whichever  is  lower.  WIP 
cost  includes  appropriate  portion  of  allocable 
overheads.  Raw  materials  and  other  supplies 
held for use in the production of finished products 
are not written down below cost except in cases 
where  material  prices  have  declined  and  it  is 
estimated  that  the  cost  of  the  finished  products 
will exceed their net realisable value.

iv)  Net realisable value is the estimated selling price 
in the ordinary course of business, less estimated 
costs  of  completion  and  estimated  costs 
necessary  to  make  the  sale.  The  comparison  of 
cost and net realisable value is made on a item by 
item  basis.  Obsolete  or  slow  moving  inventories 
are  identified  from  time  to  time  and  a  provision 
is  made  for  such  inventories  as  appropriate  on 
periodic basis.

j) 

Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception whether 
a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract 
conveys  the  right  to  control  the  use  of  an  identified 
asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration

Company as a lessee 

The Company’s lease asset classes primarily comprise 
of lease for land and building. The Company assesses 
whether  a  contract  contains  a  lease,  at  inception  of 
a  contract.  A  contract  is,  or  contains,  a  lease  if  the 

131

CORPORATE OVERVIEWSTATUTORY REPORTSFINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021-22 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES

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.  The  Company  applies  a  single  recognition 
and  measurement  approach  for  all  leases,  except  for 
short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. For 
these  short-term  and  low  value  leases,  the  Company 
recognises  the 
lease  payments  as  an  operating 
expense  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  term  of  the 
lease. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make 
lease  payments  and  right-of-use  assets  representing 
the right to use the underlying assets as below:

i) 

Right-of-use assets

lease 

The  Company  recognises  right-of-use  assets  at 
the  commencement  date  of  the  lease  (i.e.,  the 
date  the  underlying  asset  is  available  for  use). 
Right-of-use  assets  are  measured  at  cost,  less 
any  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment 
losses,  and  adjusted  for  any  remeasurement 
of 
liabilities.  The  cost  of  right-of-use 
assets  includes  the  amount  of  lease  liabilities 
recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease 
payments made at or before the commencement 
date  less  any  lease  incentives  received.  Right-
of-use  assets  are  depreciated  on  a  straight-line 
basis  over  the  shorter  of  the  lease  term  and  the 
estimated  useful  lives  of  the  underlying  assets 
(i.e.  30  and  60  years)  If  ownership  of  the  leased 
asset transfers to the Company at the end of the 
lease  term  or  the  cost  reflects  the  exercise  of  a 
purchase option, depreciation is calculated using 
the  estimated  useful  life  of  the  asset.  The  right-
of-use assets are also subject to impairment.

ii)  Lease Liabilities

At  the  commencement  date  of  the  lease,  the 
Company recognises lease liabilities measured at 
the present value of lease payments to be made 
over the lease term. The lease payments include 
fixed  payments  (including  in  substance  fixed 
payments)  less  any  lease  incentives  receivable, 
variable lease payments that depend on an index 
or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under 
residual  value  guarantees.  The  lease  payments 

132

also  include  the  exercise  price  of  a  purchase 
option  reasonably  certain  to  be  exercised  by 
the  Company  and  payments  of  penalties  for 
terminating  the  lease,  if  the  lease  term  reflects 
the Company exercising the option to terminate. 
Variable  lease  payments  that  do  not  depend  on 
an  index  or  a  rate  are  recognised  as  expenses 
(unless they are incurred to produce inventories) 
in the period in which the event or condition that 
triggers  the  payment  occurs.  In  calculating  the 
present  value  of  lease  payments,  the  Company 
uses  its  incremental  borrowing  rate  at  the  lease 
commencement  date  because  the  interest  rate 
implicit  in  the  lease  is  not  readily  determinable. 
After  the  commencement  date,  the  amount  of 
lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion 
of  interest  and  reduced  for  the  lease  payments 
made.  In  addition,  the  carrying  amount  of  lease 
liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, 
a change in the lease term, a change in the lease 
payments  (e.g.,  changes  to  future  payments 
resulting from a change in an index or rate used 
to  determine  such  lease  payments)  or  a  change 
in  the  assessment  of  an  option  to  purchase  the 
underlying asset. The Company’s lease liabilities 
are  included  in  other  current  and  non-current 
financial liabilities.

(iii)  Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The  Company  applies  the  short-term 
lease 
recognition  exemption  to  its  short-term  leases 
(i.e.,  those  leases  that  have  a  lease  term  of  12 
months  or  less  from  the  commencement  date 
and  do  not  contain  a  purchase  option).  It  also 
applies the lease of low-value assets recognition 
exemption  to  leases  that  are  considered  to  be 
low value. Lease payments on short-term leases 
and leases of low-value assets are recognised as 
expense  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  lease 
term.  “Lease  liability”  and  “Right  of  Use”  asset 
have  been  separately  presented  in  the  Balance 
Sheet  and  lease  payments  have  been  classified 
as financing cash flows.

Company as a lessor

Leases  for  which  the  Company  is  a  lessor 
is  classified  as  finance  or  operating 
lease. 
Leases  in  which  the  Company  does  not  transfer 
substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to 
ownership of an asset are classified as operating 
leases. Rental income arising is accounted for on 
a  straight-line  basis  over  the  lease  terms.  Initial 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES
to standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging 
an  operating  lease  are  added  to  the  carrying 
amount of the leased asset and recognised over 
the lease term on the same basis as rental income. 
Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the 
period in which they are earned.

k)  Employee’s benefits

Short  term  employee  benefits:  All  employee  benefits 
expected  to  be  settled  wholly  within  twelve  months 
of  rendering  the  service  are  classified  as  short-term 
employee  benefits.  When  an  employee  has  rendered 
service  to  the  Company  during  an  accounting  period, 
the Company recognises the undiscounted amount of 
short-term  employee  benefits  expected  to  be  paid  in 
exchange for that service as an expense unless another 
Ind AS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefits 
in  the  cost  of  an  asset.  Benefits  such  as  salaries, 
wages and short-term compensated absences, bonus 
and ex-gratia etc. are recognised in statement of profit 
and loss in the period in which the employee renders 
the related service.

A  liability  is  recognised  for  the  amount  expected  to 
be  paid  after  deducting  any  amount  already  paid 
under  short-term  cash  bonus  or  profit-sharing  plans 
if  the  Company  has  a  present  legal  or  constructive 
obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service 
provided  by  the  employee,  and  the  obligation  can  be 
estimated reliably. If the amount already paid exceeds 
the undiscounted amount of the benefits, the Company 
recognises that excess as an asset /prepaid expense to 
the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, 
a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

Defined contribution plan

A  defined  contribution  plan  is  a  post-employment 
benefit  plan  under  which  an  entity  pays  fixed 
contributions  to  a  statutory  authority  and  will  have 
no  legal  or  constructive  obligation  to  pay  further 
amounts. 

Retirement  benefits  in  the  form  of  Provident  Fund, 
Employee  State 
Insurance  Scheme  and  Labour 
Welfare  Fund  Scheme  are  defined  contribution  plans. 
to  government 
The  contributions  paid/payable 
administered  respective  funds  are  recognised  as  an 
expense  in  the  Statement  of  Profit  and  loss  during 
the  period  in  which  the  employee  renders  the  related 
service.

Defined benefit plan

A  defined  benefit  plan  is  a  post-employment  benefit 
plan other than a defined contribution plan.

The  Company  has  an  obligation  towards  gratuity, 
a  defined  benefit  retirement  plan  covering  eligible 
employees. The plan provides for a lump sum payment 
to  vested  employees  at  retirement,  death  while  in 
employment  or  on  termination  of  employment  of  an 
amount  based  on  the  respective  employee’s  salary 
and  the  tenure  of  employment.  Vesting  occurs  upon 
completion  of  five  years  of  service.  The  Company 
accounts  for  the  liability  for  gratuity  benefits  payable 
in future based on an independent actuarial valuation 
report using the projected unit credit method as at the 
year end. 

The obligations are measured at the present value of 
the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is 
generally  based  upon  the  market  yields  available  on 
Government  bonds  at  the  reporting  date  with  a  term 
that matches that of the liabilities. 

Re-measurements,  comprising  actuarial  gains  and 
losses,  the  effect  of  the  changes  to  the  asset  ceiling 
(if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding 
interest  and  if  applicable),  is  reflected  immediately  in 
Other Comprehensive Income in the statement of profit 
and loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit 
plans  are  recognised  in  statement  of  profit  and  loss 
as  employee  benefit  expenses.  Re-measurements 
recognised 
Income  will 
in  Other  Comprehensive 
not  be  reclassified  to  statement  of  profit  and  loss 
hence  it  is  treated  as  part  of  retained  earnings  in  the 
statement of changes in equity. Gains or losses on the 
curtailment  or  settlement  of  any  defined  benefit  plan 
are  recognised  when  the  curtailment  or  settlement 
occurs.  Curtailment  gains  and  losses  are  accounted 
for as past service costs. 

Other long term employee benefits

As  per  the  Company’s  policy,  eligible  leaves  can  be 
accumulated by the employees and carried forward to 
future  periods  to  either  be  utilised  during  the  service, 
or  encashed.  Encashment  can  be  made  during 
the  service,  on  early  retirement,  on  withdrawal  of 
scheme,  at  resignation  by  employee  and  upon  death 
of  employee.  The  scale  of  benefits  is  determined 
based on the seniority and the respective employee’s 
salary.  The  Company  records  an  obligation  for  such 
compensated  absences  in  the  period  in  which  the 
employee  renders  the  services  that  increase  this 
entitlement.  The  obligation  is  measured  on  the  basis 
of independent actuarial valuation using the projected 
unit credit method.

l) 

Provisions

General

Provisions  are  recognised  when  the  Company  has  a 
present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of 
a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources 
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle 
the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of 
the amount of the obligation. 

When the Company expects some or all of a provision 
to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as 
a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is 
virtually certain.

The expense relating to a provision is presented in the 
statement of profit and loss, net of any reimbursement. 
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.  The  unwinding  of  discount  is  recognised 
in  the  statement  of  profit  and  loss  as  a  finance  cost. 
Provisions  are  reviewed  at  the  end  of  each  reporting 
period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. 
If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources 
would be required to settle the obligation, the provision 
is reversed.

m)  Financial instruments

A  financial  instrument  is  a  contract  that  gives  rise  to 
a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability 
or  equity 
instrument  for  another  entity.Financial 
assets  and  financial  liabilities  are  recognised  when 
the  Company  becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual 
provisions of the instruments.

(i)  Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is initially recognised at fair value. 
In case of financial assets which are recognised 
at  fair  value  through  profit  and  loss  (FVTPL),  its 
transaction cost are recognised in the statement 
of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction 
cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the 
financial asset.

Subsequent measurement 

For  purposes  of  subsequent  measurement, 
financial assets are classified in three categories:

- 

- 

Financial Asset carried at amortised cost

Financial  Asset  at  fair  value  through  other 
comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

134

- 

Financial  Asset  at  fair  value  through  profit 

and loss (FVTPL)

Financial asset carried at amortised cost

A  financial  asset  is  subsequently  measured  at 

amortised  cost  if  it  is  held  within  a  business 

model  whose  objective  is  to  hold  the  asset  in 

order  to  collect  contractual  cash  flows  and  the 

contractual terms of the financial asset give rise 

on  specified  dates  to  cash  flows  that  are  solely 

payments of principal and interest on the principal 

amount outstanding.

Financial  asset  at  fair  value  through  other 

comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair 
value  through  other  comprehensive  income  if  it 

is held within a business model whose objective 

is  achieved  by  both  collecting  contractual 

cash  flows  and  selling  financial  assets  and  the 

contractual terms of the financial asset give rise 

on  specified  dates  to  cash  flows  that  are  solely 

payments of principal and interest on the principal 

amount outstanding.

Financial  asset  at  fair  value  through  profit  and 

loss (FVTPL) 

A financial asset which is not classified in any of 

the above categories are subsequently fair valued 

through profit or loss.

De-recognition

A  financial  asset  (or,  where  applicable,  a  part  of 

a  financial  asset)  is  primarily  derecognised  (i.e. 

removed  from  the  Company’s  Balance  Sheet) 
when:

(i)  The contractual rights to receive cash flows 

from the asset has expired, or

(ii)  The Company has transferred its contractual 

rights to receive cash flows from the financial 

asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the 

received  cash  flows  in  full  without  material 

delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ 

arrangement;  and  either  (a)  the  Company 

has transferred substantially all the risks and 

rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has 

neither transferred nor retained substantially 

all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has 

transferred control of the asset.

(ii)  Financial liabilities

(iv)  Derivative financial instruments

Initial  recognition  and  measurement  Financial 

liabilities  are  classified,  at  initial  recognition,  as 

financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. 

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair 

value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and 

payables,  net  of  directly  attributable  transaction 

costs. The Company’s financial liabilities include 

borrowings,  trade  and  other  payables,  security 

deposits received etc.

Subsequent measurement

For  purposes  of  subsequent  measurement, 

financial liabilities are classified in two categories:

- 

- 

Financial liabilities at amortised cost

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit 

and loss (FVTPL)

A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL if it is 

classified  as  held  for  trading,  or  it  is  a  derivative 

or  it  is  designated  as  such  as  initial  recognition. 

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair 

value  and  net  gains  and  losses,  including  any 

interest expense, are recognised in the Statement 

of  Profit  and  loss.  Other  financial  liabilities  are 

subsequently measured at amortised cost using 

the effective interest method. Interest expense is 

recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss.

De-recognition

A  financial  liability  is  derecognised  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 de-recognition of the original liability and the 

recognition of a new liability. The difference in the 

respective carrying amounts is recognised in the 

statement of profit and loss.

(iii)  Offsetting of financial instruments 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset 

and  the  net  amount  is  reported  in  the  balance 

sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right 

to offset the recognised amounts and there is an 

intention  to  settle  on  a  net  basis,  to  realise  the 

assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously

Till March 31, 2019, the Company used derivative 
financial  instruments,  such  as  forward  currency 
contracts,  to  hedge  its  foreign  currency  risks. 
instruments  were 
Such  derivative  financial 
initially  recognised  at  fair  value  on  the  date  on 
which a derivative contract is entered into and are 
subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives 
are carried as financial assets when the fair value 
is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair 
value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from 
changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken 
directly to statement of profit and loss.

(v)  Hedge Accounting

With  effect  from  April  2019,  the  Company 
adopted  Hedge  Accounting.The  derivatives  that 
are  designated  as  hedging  instrument  under 
Ind AS 109 to mitigate risk arising out of foreign 
currency transactions are accounted for as cash 
flow  hedges.  The  Company  enters  into  hedging 
instruments 
in  accordance  with  policies  as 
approved  by  the  Board  of  Directors  with  written 
is  consistent  with  the  risk 
principles  which 
management strategy of the Company.

The  hedge 
instruments  are  designated  and 
documented  as  hedges  at  the  inception  of  the 
contract. The effectiveness of hedge instruments 
is assessed and measured at inception and on an 
ongoing basis.

When  a  derivative  is  designated  as  a  cash  flow 
hedging 
instrument,  the  effective  portion  of 
changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  is 
recognised in OCI, e.g., cash flow hedging reserve 
and  accumulated 
in  the  cash  flow  hedging 
reserve.  Any  ineffective  portion  of  changes  in 
the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  is  recognised 
immediately  in  the  statement  of  profit  and  loss. 
The amount accumulated is retained in cash flow 
hedge  reserve  and  reclassified  to  profit  or  loss 
in  the  same  period  or  periods  during  which  the 
hedged  item  affects  the  statement  of  profit  and 
loss.

If  the  hedging 
longer  meets 
instrument  no 
the  criteria  for  hedge  accounting,  then  hedge 
accounting  is  discontinued  prospectively.  If  the 
hedging instrument is terminated or exercised prior 
to  its  maturity/  contractual  term,  the  cumulative 
gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized

in  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  till  the  period  the 
hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging 
reserve  until  the  forecasted  transaction  occurs. 
The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised 
in  the  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  is  reclassified 
to  the  Statement  of  Profit  and  Loss  upon  the 
occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. 
If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected 
to  occur,  then  the  amount  accumulated  in  cash 
flow  hedging  reserve  is  reclassified  immediately 
in the statement of profit and loss.

n) 

Impairment of financial assets 

The  Company  measures  the  expected  credit  loss 
associated  with  its  assets  based  on  historical  trend, 
industry  practices  and  the  business  environment  in 
which  the  entity  operates  or  any  other  appropriate 
basis.  The  impairment  methodology  applied  depends 
on  whether  there  has  been  a  significant  increases  in 
credit risk. Expected credit loss is the weighted average 
of  the  difference  between  all  contractual  cash  flows 
that  are  due  to  the  Company  in  accordance  with  the 
contracts  and  all  the  cash  flows  that  the  Company 
expects  to  receive,  discounted  at  original  effective 
interest  rate  with  the  respective  risk  of  defaults 
occuring as the weights.

recoverable  amount 
The  recoverable  amount  of  an  asset  or  cash-
generating unit (‘CGU’) is the greater of its value in use 
or its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in 
use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to 
their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax  discount  rate  that 
reflects current market assessments of the time value 
of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For 
the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot 
be  tested  individually  are  grouped  together  into  the 
smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows 
from  continuing  use  that  are  largely  independent  of 
the  cash  inflows  of  other  assets  or  groups  of  assets 
(‘CGU’).

An impairment loss is recognised, if the carrying amount 
of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable 
amount and is recognised in statement of profit and loss. 
Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are

136

assessed  at  end  of  each  reporting  period  for  any 
indications  that  the  loss  has  decreased  or  no  longer 
exists.  An  impairment  loss  is  reversed  if  there  has 
been a change in the estimates used to determine the 
recoverable  amount.  An  impairment  loss  is  reversed 
only  to  the  extent  that  the  asset’s  carrying  amount 
does not exceed the carrying amount that would have 
been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if 
no impairment loss had been recognised.

p)  Fair value measurement 

Fair  value  is  the  price  that  would  be  received  to  sell 
an  asset  or  paid  to  transfer  a  liability  in  an  orderly 
transaction  between  market  participants  at 
the 
measurement  date.  The  fair  value  measurement  is 
based on the presumption that the transaction to sell 
the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

(a) 

In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

(b) 

In the absence of a principal market, in the most 
advantageous market for the asset or liability

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes 
into account a market participant’s ability to generate 
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and 
best use or by selling it to another market participant 
that  would  use  the  asset  in  its  highest  and  best  use. 
The  Company  uses  valuation  techniques  that  are 
in  the  circumstances  and  for  which 
appropriate 
sufficient  data  are  available  to  measure  fair  value, 
maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and 
minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

liabilities  for  which  fair  value 

is 
All  assets  and 
measured or disclosed in the financial statements are 
categorised  within  the  fair  value  hierarchy,  described 
as  follows,  based  on  the  lowest  level  input  that  is 
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: 
Level  1  —  Quoted  (unadjusted)  market  prices  in 
active  markets  for 
liabilities 
Level  2  —  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the 
lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to  the  fair  value

Level  3  —  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the 
lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to  the  fair  value 
measurement is unobservable

identical  assets  or 

is  directly  or 

For  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  recognised  in  the 
financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company 
determines whether transfers have occurred between 
levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation 
(based  on  the  lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to 
the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of 
each reporting period.

q)  Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured 
at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid 
to  the  taxation  authorities.  The  tax  rates  and  tax 
laws used to compute the amount are those that are 
enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date. 
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside 
profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either 
in  other  comprehensive  income  (OCI)  or  in  equity). 
Current  tax  items  are  recognized  in  correlation  to  the 
underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 
Management  periodically  evaluates  positions  taken 
in  the  tax  returns  with  respect  to  situations  in  which 
applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation 
and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Current  tax  assets  are  offset  against  current  tax 
liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists 
to  set  off  the  recognised  amounts  and  there  is  an 
intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the 
asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Government of India has issued the Taxation Laws 
(Amendment)  Act,  2019,  which  provides  domestic 
companies an option to pay corporate tax at reduced 
rates effective April 1, 2019 subject to certain conditions. 
The Company intends to opt for lower tax regime from 
assessment year 2022-23 and accordingly the impact 
has been considered in computing deferred tax.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 
tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when 
the  asset  is  realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based 
on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively enacted at the reporting date. 

Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  all  deductible 
temporary  differences,  the  carry  forward  of  unused 
tax  credits  and  any  unused  tax  losses.  Deferred  tax 
assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that  taxable  profit  will  be  available  against  which 
the  deductible  temporary  differences,  and  the  carry 
forward  of  unused  tax  credits  and  unused  tax  losses 
can be utilised. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 
tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when 
the  asset  is  realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based 
on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively  enacted  at  the  balance  sheet  date.  Tax 
relating  to  items  recognised  directly  in  equity/other 

comprehensive  income  is  recognised  in  respective 
head and not in the statement of profit & loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed 
at each balance sheet date and is adjusted to the extent 
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit 
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be 
recovered.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset 
if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax 
assets  against  current  tax  liabilities  and  the  deferred 
taxes  relate  to  the  same  taxable  entity  and  the  same 
taxation authority.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit 
or  loss  is  recognised  outside  profit  or  loss  (either  in 
other comprehensive income or in equity).

Minimum Alternate Tax

Minimum  Alternate  Tax  (MAT)  paid  in  the  year  is 
charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as current 
tax.The  Company  recognises  MAT  credit  available  as 
an  asset  only  to  the  extent  that  there  is  convincing 
evidence  that  the  Company  will  pay  normal  income 
tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which 
MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year 
in which Company recognises MAT credit as an asset 
in accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting 
for  Credit  Available  in  respect  of  Minimum  Alternate 
Tax  under  the  Income  Tax  Act,  1961,  the  said  asset 
is  created  by  way  of  credit  to  the  Statement  of  Profit 
and Loss and shown as “MAT Credit Entitlement”. The 
Company  reviews  the  “MAT  Credit  Entitlement”  asset 
at  each  reporting  date  and  writes  down  the  asset  to 
the  extent  the  Company  does  not  have  convincing 
evidence that it will pay normal tax during the specified 
period.

In  accordance  with  Ind  AS  12  Company  is  grouping 
MAT  credit  entitlement  with  Deferred  Tax  Assets/
Liabilities (Net).

s)  Cash and cash equivalents

v)  Government grants 

Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise 

cash  at  banks  and  on  hand  and  short-term  deposits 

with an original maturity of three months or less, which 

are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. 

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash 

and cash equivalents consist of cash balance on hand, 

cash  balance  at  banks  and  short-term  deposits,  as 

defined  above,  net  of  outstanding  bank  overdrafts  as 

they are considered an integral part of the Company’s 

cash management.

t) 

Statement of Cash flows 

The statement of cash flows have been prepared under 

indirect method, whereby profit or loss is adjusted for 

the  effects  of  transactions  of  a  non-cash  nature,  any 
deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash 

receipts or payments and items of income or expense 

associated with investing or financing cash flows. 

u)  Earnings per share (EPS)

In  determining  earnings  per  share,  the  Company 

considers the net profit after tax and includes the post 

tax effect of any extraordinary items.

Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit 

for  the  year  attributable  to  the  shareholders  of  the 

Company  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity 

shares outstanding as at the end of reporting period.

Diluted  EPS  amounts  are  calculated  by  dividing  the 

profit attributable to the shareholders of the Company 

by  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 

outstanding during the year plus the weighted average 

number  of  Equity  shares  that  would  be  issued  on 

conversion  of  all  the  dilutive  potential  equity  shares 

Grants  from  the  government  are  recognised  at  their 
fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the 
grant  will  be  received  and  the  Company  will  comply 
with all attached conditions.

Government  grants  relating  to  the  purchase  of 
property,  plant  and  equipment  are  included  in  non-
current liabilities as deferred income and are credited 
to  Profit  and  Loss  on  a  straight  -  line  basis  over  the 
expected lives of related assets and presented within 
other income.

w)  Contingent liabilities and contingent assets

A  contingent  liability  exists  when  there  is  a  possible 
but  not  probable  obligation,  or  a  present  obligation 
that  may,  but  probably  will  not,  require  an  outflow  of 
resources,  or  a  present  obligation  whose  amount 
cannot  be  estimated  reliably.  Contingent  liabilities 
do  not  warrant  provisions,  but  are  disclosed  unless 
the  possibility  of  outflow  of  resources  is  remote. 
Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed 
in the financial statements. However, contingent assets 
are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that 
an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and 
related  income  are  recognised  in  the  period  in  which 
the change occurs.

x)  Research & development costs

Research  and  development  costs  that  are  in  nature 
of  tangible  assets  and  are  expected  to  generate 
probable  future  economic  benefits  are  capitalised  as 
tangible assets. Revenue expenditure on research and 
development is charged to the statement of profit and 
loss in the year in which it is incurred.

into equity shares.

y)  Exceptional items

Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted 

as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been 

issued  at  a  later  date.  A  transaction  is  considered  to 

be antidilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of 

EPS, either by lowering the share count or increase the 

earnings.

When items of income and expense within statement 
of  profit  and  loss  from  ordinary  activities  are  of  such 
size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant 
to  explain  the  performance  of  the  Company  for  the 
period, the nature and amount of such material items 
are disclosed seperately as exceptional items.

The contribution payable to these schemes by the Company are at the rates specified in the rules of the schemes.

b)   Defined benefit plans

In accordance with Ind AS 19  “Employee benefits”, an actuarial valuation on the basis of “Projected Unit Credit Method” 
was carried out, through which the Company is able to determine the present value of obligations. “Projected Unit Credit 
Method” recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employees benefit entitlement and measures 
each unit separately to built up the final obligation.

i) 

Gratuity scheme 

The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, employee who has completed 
five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the member’s length of 
service and salary at retirement age. The gratuity is funded in current year for all the units and maintained by Life 
Insurance Corporation of India . Till previous financial year 2020-21, the status of gratuity was as under:

a)  Gratuity in case of Gurgaon Division was funded & maintained by Life Insurance Corporation of India

NOTES
to standalone financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

b)  Gratuity in case of Chennai & Banglore Division was unfunded.

ii)  Other long term employee benefits

As  per  the  Company’s  policy,  eligible  leaves  can  be  accumulated  by  the  employees  and  carried  forward  to  future 
periods to either be utilised during the service, or encashed. Encashment can be made during the service, on early 
retirement, on withdrawal of scheme, at resignation by employee and upon death of employee. The scale of benefits 
is determined based on the seniority and the respective employee’s salary. The Company records an obligation for 
such compensated absences in the period in which the employee renders the services that increase this entitlement. 
The obligation is measured on the basis of independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method.

Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) 
and the return on plan assets (excluding interest and if applicable), is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive 
Income in the statement of profit and loss in case of Gratuity. All other expenses related to defined benefit plans are 
recognised  in  statement  of  profit  and  loss  as  employee  benefit  expenses.  Re-measurements  recognised  in  Other 
Comprehensive Income will not be reclassified to statement of profit and loss hence it is treated as part of retained 
earnings in the statement of changes in equity. Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of any defined benefit 
plan are recognised when the curtailment or settlement occurs. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as 
past service costs.

c)  The following tables summarize the components of net benefit expense recognised in the Statement of profit and loss and 
the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the defined benefit plan and other long term benefits. 
These have been provided on accrual basis, based on year end actuarial valuation.

42 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

I 

Financial instruments

a)  Financial instruments by category 

Except Investment in equity instruments (Quoted) and investment in mutual funds which are measured at fair value 
through profit or loss, all other financial assets and liabilities viz. trade receivables, security deposits, cash and cash 
equivalents,  other  bank  balances,  interest  receivable,  other  receivables,  trade  payables,  employee  related  liabilities 
and borrowings, are measured at amortised cost. Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value through 
other comprehensive income..

b)  Fair value hierarchy

This  section  explains  the  judgments  and  estimates  made  in  determining  the  fair  values  of  the  financial 
instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which 
fair  values  are  disclosed  in  the  standalone  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. 
The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financials liabilities, including

c)  The  Company  has  an  established  control  framework  with  respect  to  the  measurement  of  fair  values.  The  finance  and 
accounts team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements and reports directly to 
the board of directors. The team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party 
information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the team assesses the evidence 
obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that these valuations meet the requirements of Ind AS, including 
the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the valuations should be classified. Significant valuation issues are reported to 
the Company’s board of directors.

d)  Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques 

as follows.

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. 
as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There have been no transfers in either direction for the year ended 31 March 2022 and 31 March 2021.

e) 

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost

The  carrying  amounts  of  short-term  trade  and  other  receivables,  trade  payables,  cash  and  cash  equivalents 
and  other  bank  balances  are  considered  to  be  the  same  as  their  fair  values,  due  to  their  short-term  nature. 
For other financial liabilities/ assets that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.

Market  risk  is  the  risk  that  changes  in  market  prices,  such  as  foreign  exchange  rates  and  interest  rates  will  affect  the 
Company’s income. 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.    The 
objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures withing acceptables parameters, 
while optimising the return. The Board of Directors is responsible for setting up the policies and procedures to amange 
risks of the Company.

i) 

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because 
of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates 
primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company manages its net 
exposure to interest rate risk related to borrowings, by balancing a proportion of fixed rate and floating rate borrowing 
in its total borrowing portfolio.

Interest Rate Sensitivity: The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2022 
and  March  31,  2021.  The  following  table  demonstrates  the  sensitivity  to  a  reasonably  possible  change  in  interest 
rates on the portion of  borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Company’s profit before tax is 
affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:

Decrease / (increase)

 (11.87)
 10.94 
 (10.94)

The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable 
market environment, showing a significantly higher volatility than in prior years.

ii)  Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on certain transactions that are denominated in a currency other 
than entity’s funactional currency, hence exposure to exchange rate fluctuations arises. The risk is that the functional 
currency value of cash flows will vary as a result of movements in exchange rates. The following tables demonstrate 
the sensitivity (strengthening or weakening of Indian Rupee) to a reasonably possible change in exchange rates, with 
all other variables held constant.

and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our  opinion  on  the 
consolidated financial statements.

In  connection  with  our  audit  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements, our responsibility is to read the other information

When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there

their financial reporting process of the Group. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated 
Financial Statements 

Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about 
whether  the  consolidated  financial  statements  as  a  whole 
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud 
or  error,  and  to  issue  an  auditor’s  report  that  includes  our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance 
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it 
exists. 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 financial controls 
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  Holding 
Company  and  Subsidiaries  which  are  incorporated 
in  India  has  adequate  internal  financial  controls  with 
reference to the financial statements 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 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 
ability  of  the  Group  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 

• 

• 

• 

• 

188

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 Group 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 which we are independent 
auditors  to  express  an  opinion  on  the  consolidated 
financial  statements.  We  are  responsible  for  the 
direction, supervision and performance of the audit of 
the consolidated financial statements of such entities 
included  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of 
which we are the independent auditors. For the entities 
consolidated in the consolidated financial statements, 
which have been audited by other auditors, such other 
auditors are  responsible for  the direction, supervision 
and performance of the audits carried out by them. We 
remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. 

We communicate with those charged with governance 
of  the  Holding  Company  and  such  other  entities 
included  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  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 for the financial year ended March 
31,  2022  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 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Contd.)

in  our  report  because  the  adverse  consequences  of 
doing  so  would  reasonably  be  expected  to  outweigh 
the public interest benefits of such communication.

Other Matters 

(a)  We  did  not  audit  the  financial  statements  of  four 
subsidiaries  included  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements,  whose  financial  statements 
reflect 
total  assets  (before  eliminating  of  inter-company 
transaction  of  `  22,521.82  lakh)  of  `  130,700.99  lakh 
as at March 31,2022, total revenues (before eliminating 
of  inter-company  transaction  of  `  108,125.74  lakh) 
`  315,911.01  lakh,  total  net  profit  after  tax  (before 
eliminating of inter-company transaction of  `  (2.31)  
lakh) of ` 4,241.04 lakh and total comprehensive income 
(before  eliminating  of  inter-company  transaction  of  
`  16.19  lakh  )  of  `  5404.49  lakh  for  the  year  ended 
March 31, 2022 respectively and total net cash inflow 
of ` 2,476.71 lakh for the year ended March 31, 2022, 
as considered in the consolidated financial statements. 
These financial statements and other information have 
been  audited  by  other  auditors  whose  reports  have 
been  furnished  to  us  by  the  Management  and  our 
conclusion  on  the  consolidated  financial  statements, 
in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures 
included in respect of these subsidiaries, and our report 
in terms of Regulation read with the Circulars, in so far 
as it relates to the aforesaid subsidiaries, are based on 
the  reports  of  the  other  auditors  and  the  procedures 
performed by us as stated in paragraph below.

(b)  Further,  of  these  subsidiaries,  three  subsidiaries  are 
located  outside  India  whose  financial  statements 
and  other  financial  information  have  been  prepared 
in  accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally 
accepted  in  their  respective  countries  and  which 
have  been 
reviewed  by  other  auditors  under 
generally  accepted  auditing  standards  applicable  in 
their  respective  countries.  The  Holding  Company’s 
Management  has  converted  the  financial  statements 
of  such  subsidiaries  from  accounting  principles 
generally  accepted  in  their  respective  countries  to 
accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  India. 
Independent  firm  of  Chartered  Accountant  have 
audited  these  conversion  adjustments  made  by  the 
Holding  Company  management  in  India.  Our  opinion 
in  so  far  as  it  relates  to  the  balances  and  affairs  of 
such  subsidiary  companies  located  outside  India  are 
based on the report of other auditor in their respective 
countries  and  conversion  adjustments  prepared  by 
the  Management  and  audited  by  independent  firm  of 
Chartered Accountants of India. 

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statement is 
not modified in respect of the above matter with respect 
to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the 
other auditors.

(c)  The  Consolidated  financial  statements  also  include 
the  financial  statements  of  one  foreign  subsidiary 
whose financial statements reflect total assets (before 
eliminating  of  inter-company  transaction  of  `  Nil)  
`  259.97  lakh  as  at  March  31,2022,  total  revenues 
(before  eliminating  of  inter-company  transaction  of   
` Nil) of  ` 351.88 lakh, total net profit after tax (before 
eliminating  of  inter-company  transaction  of  `  Nil) 
of  `  2.83  lakh  &  total  comprehensive  income  (before 
eliminating  of  inter-company  transaction  of    `  Nil) 
of  `  2.88  lakh  for  the  year  ended  March  31,2022  and 
net  cash  inflow  of    `  14.73  lakh  for  the  year  ended 
March  31,2022,  as  considered  in  the  consolidated 
financial  statements,  which  have  not  been  audited. 
These  financial  statements  have  been  certified  by 
the  respective  Management  and  furnished  to  us  by 
Holding  Company’s  Management.  Our  conclusion, 
in  so  far  as  it  relates  to  the  amounts  included  in 
respect  of  aforesaid  subsidiary,  is  based  solely  on 
such  financial  statements.  In  our  view  and  according 
to  the  information  and  explanations  given  to  us  by 
the  Holding  Company’s  Management,  these  financial 
statements are not material to the Group.

Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter 
with respect to our reliance on these unaudited financial 
statements of aforesaid subsidiary, as certified by the 
respective Management

(d)  The  consolidated  financial  statements  do  not  include 
the financial statement of one subsidiary for the year 
ended  March  31,  2022,  as  the  same  has  gone  into 
voluntary liquidation and due to the reason as explained 
in Note no. 9(d) of the consolidated financial statement. 
According  to  the  information  and  explanations  given 
to us by the Management, financial statement of this 
subsidiary  does  not  have  any  material  impact  on  the 
consolidated  statement  of  the  Group.  Our  conclusion 
on  the  Statement  is  not  modified  in  respect  of  this 
matter.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, 
and  our  report  on  Other  Legal  and  Regulatory 
Requirements below, is not modified in respect of the 
above matter with respect to our reliance on the work 
done  and  the  reports  of  the  other  auditors  and  the 
financial statements / financial information certified by 
the Management.

As at December 31, 2020, Pearl Apparel Fashions Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the company has gone into voluntary 
liquidation and appointed the official liquidator in October 2020. Accordingly, the same is not considered in these consolidated 
financial statements as at March 31, 2022. However, the comparative consolidated financial statements as at March 31, 2021 
includes the financial statements of Pearl Apparel Fashions limited.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND MEASUREMENT

Statement  of  Compliance:  The  Financial  Statements 
are  prepared  on  an  accrual  basis  under  historical  cost 
Convention  except  for  certain  financial  instruments  which 
are measured at fair value. These financial statements have 
been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the  Indian  Accounting 
Standards  (Ind  AS)  as  prescribed  under  Section  133  of 
the Companies Act, 2013 read with the Companies (Indian 
Accounting  Standards)  Rules,  2015  as  amended  and 
other  relevant  provisions  of  the  Companies  Act,  2013,  as 
applicable.

The  accounting  policies  are  applied  consistently  to  all  the 
periods presented in the financial statements.

Basis  of  Preparation  and  presentation:  The  financial 
statements are prepared under the historical cost convention 
except  for  certain  financial  assets  and  liabilities  (including 
derivative  financial  instruments)  that  are  measured  at  fair 
value or amortised cost.

All  assets  and  liabilities  have  been  classified  as  current  or 
noncurrent  according  to  the  Group’s  operating  cycle  and 
other  criteria  set  out  in  the  Act.  Based  on  the  nature  of 

products  and  the  time  between  the  acquisition  of  assets 
for  processing  and  their  realisation  in  cash  and  cash 
equivalents,  the  Group  has  ascertained  its  operating  cycle 
as  twelve  months  for  the  purpose  of  current  non-current 
classification of assets and liabilities.

Going Concern

The board of directors have considered the financial position 
of  the  Group  at  31st  March  2022  and  the  projected  cash 
flows  and  financial  performance  of  the  Group  for  at  least 
twelve months from the date of approval of these financial 
statements as well as planned cost and cash improvement 
actions, and believe that the plan for sustained profitability 
remains on course.

The  board  of  directors  have  taken  actions  to  ensure  that 
appropriate  long-term  cash  resources  are  in  place  at  the 
date of signing the accounts to fund the Group’s operations.

Prior financial year reclassification of current maturities of 
long term borrowings:

During  the  current  financial  year,  to  comply  with  the 
requirements  of  admendments  made  in  Schedule  III  to 
the  Companies  Act,  2013  which  is  effective  from  financial

to consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

year  commencing  on  or  after  April  01,  2021,  the  Group 
reclassified current maturities of long term borrowings from 
“Other Financial Liabillty” to “Short Term Borrowings”. This 
reclassification more  appropriately  reflects  the borrowings 
of  the  Group.  Prior  financial  year  comparatives  have  been 
restated  to  align  to  the  current  financial  year  approach. 
The  impact  of  this  reclassification  on  prior  financial  year 
amounts has been a reduction in Other financial liability by 
`  4,129.99  Lakhs  and  corresponing  increase  in  short  term 
borrowings.

Basis of Consolidation:- 

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared 
on the following basis:- 

i) 

The  consolidation  financial  statements  of  the  Group 
and  its  subsidiary  companies  have  been  prepared  in 
accordance with the Ind AS 110 “Consolidated financial 
statements”, on a line-by-line basis by adding together 
the  book  values  of  like  items  of  assets,  liabilities, 
income,  and  expenses,  after  eliminating  intra-group 
balances  and  intra-group  transactions  resulting  in 
unrealised  profits  or  losses.    Accounting  policies  of 
subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to 
ensure  consistency  with  the  policies  adopted  by  the 
group (including consideration to materiality impact, if 
any).

Subsidiaries  are  all  entities  over  which  the  group  has 
control.  The  group  controls  an  entity  when  the  group 
is  exposed  to,  or  has  rights  to,  variable  returns  from 
its  involvement  with  the  entity  and  has  the  ability 
to  affect  those  returns  through  its  power  to  direct 
the  relevant  activities  of  the  entity.  Subsidiaries  are 
fully  consolidated  from  the  date  on  which  control  is 
transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from 
the date that control ceases.

ii)  The difference of the cost of investment in subsidiaries 
over  its  share  in  the  equity  of  the  investee  Group  as 
at  the  date  of  acquisition  of  stake  is  recognised  in 
financial statements as Goodwill or Capital Reserve, as 
the case may be.

iii)  Non-controlling 

in 

interests 

the  net  assets  of 
consolidated  subsidiaries  is  identified  and  presented 
in  the  consolidated  Balance  Sheet  separately  within 
equity as at reporting date.

Non-controlling 
consolidated subsidiaries consists of:

interests 

in 

the  net  assets  of 

- 

The  amount  of  equity  attributable  to  Non-
interests  at  the  date  on  which 
controlling 
investment in a subsidiary is made; and

198

- 

The Non-controlling interests share of movements 
in  equity  since  the  date  parent  subsidiary 
relationship  came  into  exitence.  The  profit  and 
other comprehensive income attributable to Non-
controlling  interestsof  subsidiaries  are  shown 
separately in the consolidated statement of profit 
and  loss,  consolidated  statement  of  changes  in 
equity and balance sheet respectively.

iv)  The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented, 
to the extent possible, in the same format as adopted 
by  the  Holding  Group  for 
individual  financial 
statements.

its 

v)  Translation  of  Financial  Statements  of  Foreign 

Operations

- 

 - 

 - 

In view of Ind As-“21” ‘The effects of Changes in 
Foreign Exchange Rates’, the operations of all the 
foreign subsidiaries are identified as non integral 
operations  of  the  Group  in  the  current  year  and 
translated into Indian Rupee (`).

The  Assets  and  Liabilities  of  Foreign  operations, 
including  Goodwill/  Capital  Reserve  arising  on 
consolidation,  are  translated  in  Indian  Rupee  (`) 
at foreign exchange rate at closing rate ruling as 
at  the  balance  sheet  date  and  the  revenue  and 
expenses  of  foreign  operations  are  translated 
in  Indian  Rupee  (`)  at  yearly  average  currency 
exchange rate, of the respective years. 

Foreign 
exchange  differences  arising  on 
translation  of  “Non-integral  Foreign  Operations” 
are  recognised  as,  ‘foreign  exchange  translation 
reserve’ in balance sheet under  the head items of 
other comprehensive income as items that will be 
reclassified  subsequently  to  statement  of  profit 
and loss.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs  (“MCA”)  notifies  new 
standard  or  amendments  to  the  existing  standards 
under  Companies  (Indian  Accounting  Standards) 
Rules as issued from time to time. On March 23, 2022, 
MCA  amended  the  Companies  (Indian  Accounting 
Standards)  Amendment  Rules,  2022,  applicable  from 
April 1, 2022, as below:

a) 

Ind AS 103 – Reference to Conceptual Framework

The amendments specify that to qualify for recognition 
as  part  of  applying  the  acquisition  method,  the 
identifiable  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed 
must meet the definitions of assets and liabilities in the 

PEARL GLOBAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
NOTES
to consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

Conceptual  Framework  for  Financial  Reporting  under 
Indian Accounting Standards (Conceptual Framework) 
issued  by  the  Institute  of  Chartered  Accountants  of 
India  at  the  acquisition  date.  These  changes  do  not 
significantly  change  the  requirements  of  Ind  AS  103. 
The  Group  does  not  expect  the  amendment  to  have 
any significant impact in its financial statements.

b) 

Ind AS 16 – Proceeds before intended use

The  amendments  mainly  prohibit  an  entity  from 
deducting  from  the  cost  of  property,  plant  and 
equipment  amounts  received  from  selling 
items 
produced  while  the  Group  is  preparing  the  asset  for 
its  intended  use.  Instead,  an  entity  will  recognise 
such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss.
The Group does not expect the amendments to have 
any impact in its recognition of its property, plant and 
equipment in its financial statements.

c) 

Ind AS 37 – Onerous Contracts - Costs of Fulfilling a 
Contract

The amendments specify that that the ‘cost of fulfilling’ 
a contract comprises the ‘costs that relate directly to 
the contract’. Costs that relate directly to a contract can 
either  be  incremental  costs  of  fulfilling  that  contract 
(examples  would  be  direct  labour,  materials)  or  an 
allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling 
contracts. The amendment is essentially a clarification 
and the Group does not expect the amendment to have 
any significant impact in its financial statements.

d) 

Ind AS 109 – Annual Improvements to Ind AS (2021)

The amendment clarifies which fees an entity includes 
when  it  applies  the  ‘10  percent’  test  of  Ind  AS  109  in 
assessing  whether  to  derecognise  a  financial  liability. 
The  Group  does  not  expect  the  amendment  to  have 
any significant impact in its financial statements.

e) 

Ind AS 116 – Annual Improvements to Ind AS (2021)

The  amendments  remove  the 
illustration  of  the 
reimbursement  of  leasehold  improvements  by  the 
lessor  in  order  to  resolve  any  potential  confusion 
regarding the treatment of lease incentives that might 
arise because of how lease incentives were described 
in  that  illustration.  The  Group  does  not  expect  the 
amendment  to  have  any  significant  impact  in  its 
financial statements.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)  Significant  accounting  judgements,  estimates  and 

assumptions

In preparing these financial statements, Management 

has  made  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions 
that  affect  the  application  of  the  Group’s  accounting 
policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, 
income  and  expenses.  Management  believes  that 
the estimates used in the preparation of the financial 
statements  are  prudent  and  reasonable.  Actual 
results  may  differ  from  these  estimates.  Estimates 
and  underlying  assumptions  are  reviewed  on  an 
ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are 
recognised prospectively.

Use of Estimates and Judgements 

The key assumptions concerning the future and other 
key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting 
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material 
adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and 
liabilities  within  the  next  financial  year,  are  described 
below.  The  Group  based 
its  assumptions  and 
estimates on parameters available when the financial 
statements  were  prepared.  Existing  circumstances 
and assumptions about future developments, however, 
may change due to market changes or circumstances 
arising that are beyond the control of the Group. Such 
changes  are  reflected  in  the  assumptions  when  they 
occur. Also, the Group has made certain judgements in 
applying  accounting  policies  which  have  an  effect  on 
amounts recognised in the financial statements.

i) 

Income taxes 

in 

judgment 

The  Group  is  subject  to  income  tax  laws  as 
applicable 
is 
India.  Significant 
required in determining provision for income taxes. 
There are many transactions and calculations for 
which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain 
during the ordinary course of business. The Group 
recognises  liabilities  for  anticipated  tax  issues 
based  on  estimates  of  whether  additional  taxes 
will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these 
matters  is  different  from  the  amounts  that  were 
initially  recorded,  such  differences  will  impact 
the  income  tax  and  deferred  tax  provisions  in 
the period in which such determination is made. 
Where  tax  positions  are  uncertain,  accruals 
are  recorded  within  income  tax  liabilities  for 
management’s  best  estimate  of  the  ultimate 
liability  that  is  expected  to  arise  based  on  the 
specific circumstances and the Group’s historical 
experience. Factors that may have an impact on 
current and deferred taxes include changes in tax 
laws, regulations or rates, changing interpretations 
of existing tax laws or regulations, future levels of

research and development spending and changes 
in pre-tax earnings.

ii)  Contingencies 

Contingent Liabilities may arise from the ordinary 
course  of  business  in  relation  to  claims  against 
the  Group,  including  legal  and  other  claims. 
By  virtue  of  their  nature,  contingencies  will  be 
resolved only when one or more uncertain future 
events  occur  or  fail  to  occur.  The  assessment 
of  the  existence,  and  potential  quantum,  of 
contingencies inherently involves  the exercise  of 
significant judgements and the use of estimates 
regarding the outcome of future events. 

iii)  Recoverability of deferred taxes

In  assessing  the  recoverability  of  deferred  tax 
assets,  management  considers  whether  it  is 
probable  that  taxable  profit  will  be  available 
against  which  the  losses  can  be  utilised.  The 
ultimate  realisation  of  deferred  tax  assets  is 
dependent upon the generation of future taxable 
income during the periods in which the temporary 
differences  become  deductible.  Management 
considers  the  projected  future  taxable  income 
and  tax  planning  strategies 
in  making  this 
assessment.

iv)  Defined benefit plans

The present value of the gratuity and compensated 
absences  are  determined  using  actuarial 
involves 
valuations.  An  actuarial  valuation 
making  various  assumptions  that  may  differ 
from  actual  developments  in  the  future  These 
include  the  determination  of  the  discount  rate, 
future salary increases and mortality rates Due to 
the complexities involved in the valuation and its 
long-term  nature,  a  defined  benefit  obligation  is 
highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. 
All  assumptions  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting 
date. 

The  parameter  most  subject  to  change  is  the 
discount  rate.  In  determining  the  appropriate 
discount  rate  for  plans  operated  in  India,  the 
actuary considers the interest rates of government 
bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies 
of  the  post-employment  benefit  obligation.  The 
mortality  rate  is  based  on  publicly  available 
mortality tables for the specific countries. Those 
mortality tables tend to change only at interval in 
response to demographic changes. Future salary 

200

increases  and  gratuity  increases  are  based  on 
expected  future  inflation  rates  for  the  respective 
countries.

v) 

 Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The  Group  reviews  the  useful  life  of  property, 
plant and equipment at the end of each reporting 
period.  This  reassessment  may  result  in  change 
in depreciation expense in future periods.

vi)  Leases

assessing  whether 

Where  the  Group  is  the  lessee,  key  judgements 
arrangements 
include 
contain  a lease and determining the lease term. 
To  assess  whether  a  contract  contains  a  lease 
requires  judgement  about  whether  it  depends 
on  a  specified  asset,  whether  the  Group  obtains 
substantially  all  the  economic  benefits  from  the 
use of that asset and whether the the Group has 
a  right  to  direct  the  use  of  the  asset.  In  order  to 
determine  the  lease  term  judgement  is  required 
as extension and termination options have to be 
assessed along with all facts and circumstances 
that may create an economic incentive to exercise 
an extension option, or not exercise a termination 
option. The Group revises the lease term if there 
is  a  change  in  the  non-cancellable  period  of  a 
lease. Estimates include calculating the discount 
rate which is generally based on the incremental 
borrowing  rate  specific  to  the 
lease  being 
evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar 
characteristics.

Where the The Group is the lessor, the treatment 
of  leasing  transactions  is  mainly  determined  by 
whether the lease is considered to be an operating 
or  finance  lease.  In  making  this  assessment, 
management  looks  at  the  substance  of  the 
lease,  as  well  as  the  legal  form,  and  makes  a 
judgement about whether substantially all of the 
risks  and  rewards  of  ownership  are  transferred. 
Arrangements  which  do  not  take  the  legal  form 
of  a  lease  but  that  nevertheless  convey  the 
right  to  use  an  asset  are  also  covered  by  such 
assessments..

vii)  Amortisation of Government Grants

Grants  are  amortised  to  Profit  and  Loss  on  a 
straight  -  line  basis  over  the  expected  lives  of 
related assets and presented within other income.

viii)  Impairment of financial instruments

The  Group  analyses  regularly  for 

indicators

of  impairment  of  its  financial  instruments  by 
reference to the requirements under relevant Ind 
AS.

The  management’s  estimates  and  assessments 
in  particular  on  assumptions 
were  based 
regarding the development of the economy as a 
whole, the development of textilles markets, and 
the development of the basic legal parameters.

b)  Current versus non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance 
sheet based on current/ non-current classification. 

Assets:

An asset is treated as current when it is:

a) 

Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or 
consumed in normal operating cycle.

b)  Held primarily for the purpose of trading

c) 

Expected  to  be  realised  within  twelve  months 
after the reporting period, or

d)  Cash  or  cash  equivalent  unless  restricted  from 
being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at 
least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current. 

Liabilities:

A liability is current when:

(a) 
(b) 

(c) 

It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle 
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

It is due to be settled within twelve months after 
the reporting period, or 

(d)  There  is  no  unconditional  right  to  defer  the 
settlement  of  the  liability  for  at  least  twelve 
months  after  the  reporting  period  All  other 
liabilities are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-
current assets and liabilities.

Operating  cycle:  The  operating  cycle  is  the  time 
between the acquisition of assets for processing and 
their  realisation  in  cash  and  cash  equivalents.  The 
Group  has  identified  twelve  months  as  its  operating 
cycle.

c)  Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Depreciation

Property,  plant  and  equipment  and  capital  work 
in  progress  are  stated  at  cost  less  accumulated 
depreciation  and  accumulated  impairment  losses, 

if  any.  Such  cost  includes  expenditure  that  is  directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of 
self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials 
and direct services, any other costs directly attributable 
to bringing the assets to its working condition for their 
intended  use  and  cost  of  replacing  part  of  the  plant 
and  equipment  and  borrowing  costs  for  long-term 
construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. 
When parts of an item of PPE having significant costs 
have different useful lives, then they are accounted for 
as  separate  items  (major  components)  of  property, 
plant & equipment.

An  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  any 
significant  part  initially  recognised  is  de-recognised 
upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are 
expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising on de-
recognition  of  the  asset  (calculated  as  the  difference 
between  the  net  disposal  proceeds  and  the  carrying 
amount  of  the  asset)  is  included  in  the  statement  of 
profit and loss.
Transition to Ind AS: On transition to Ind AS, the Group 
has  elected  to  continue  with  the  carrying  value  of  all 
its  property,  plant  and  equipment  as  at  1  April  2016, 
measured  as  per  the  previous  GAAP,  and  use  that 
carrying  value  as  the  deemed  cost  of  such  property, 
plant and equipment.

Subsequent costs: The cost of replacing a part of an 
item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in 
the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and 
equipment,  if  it  is  probable  that  the  future  economic 
benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group 
and its cost can be measured reliably with the carrying 
amount of the replaced part getting derecognised. The 
cost  for  day-to-day  servicing  of  property,  plant  and 
equipment  are  recognised  in  statement  of  profit  and 
loss as and when incurred.

Decommissioning  Costs:  The  present  value  of  the 
expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset, if 
any,  after its use is included in the cost of the respective 
asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. 
(as applicable) 

Capital  work  in  progress:  Capital  work  in  progress 
comprises the cost of fixed assets that are not ready 
for their intended use at the reporting date.

Cost  comprises  of  purchase  cost,  related  acquisition 
expenses, borrowing costs and other direct expenditure.

Depreciation :

Depreciation  is  provided  on  a  pro-rata  basis  on 
the  straight-line  basis  on  the  estimated  useful  life

appropriate.

d) 

Investment Properties

Property  that  is  held  for  rental  yields  or  for  capital 
appreciation  or  both,  and  that  is  not  occupied  by  the 
Group, is classified as investment property. Investment 
property  is  measured  at  its  cost,  including  related 
transaction  costs  and  where  applicable  borrowing 
costs less depreciation and impairment if any.

e)  Other Intangible assets

Recognition and measurement

Intangible  assets  that  are  acquired  by  the  Group  are 
measured initially at cost. Intangible assets with finite 
useful  lives  are  measured  at  cost  less  accumulated 
amortisation  and  accumulated  impairment  losses,  if 
any.  All  expenditures,  qualifying  as  Intangible  Assets 
are  amortised  over  estimated  useful  life.  Specialised 
softwares  are  amortised  over  a  period  of  3  years  or 
license period whichever is earlier. 

Transition to Ind AS

On  transition  to  Ind  AS,  the  Group  has  elected  to 
continue  with  the  carrying  value  of  all  its  intangible 
assets  recognised  as  at  April  01,  2016,  measured  as 
per the previous GAAP, and use that carrying value as 
the deemed cost of such intangible assets.

Subsequent  Expenditure:  Subsequent  expenditure  is 
capitalised only when it increases the future economic 
benefits  embodied  in  the  specific  asset  to  which  it 

202

Amortisation  and  useful 
lives:  Intangible  assets 
with  finite  lives  are  amortised  over  the  useful  life 
and  assessed  for  impairment  whenever  there  is  an 
indication  that  the  intangible  asset  may  be  impaired. 
The amortisation period and the amortisation method 
for  an  intangible  asset  with  a  finite  useful  life  are 
reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. 
Changes  in  the  expected  useful  life  or  the  expected 
pattern  of  consumption  of  future  economic  benefits 
embodied  in  the  asset  are  considered  to  modify  the 
amortisation  period  or  method,  as  appropriate,  and 
are  treated  as  changes  in  accounting  estimates.  The 
amortisation  expense  on  intangible  assets  with  finite 
lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss 
unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of 
another asset. The amortisation method, residual value 
and the useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed 
annually and adjusted as necessary.

f)  Borrowing costs

the  borrowing  of 

Borrowing costs consists of interest and amortisation 
of  ancillary  costs  that  an  entity  incurs  in  connection 
funds.  Borrowing  costs 
with 
directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition,  construction 
or  production  of  an  asset  that  necessarily  takes  a 
substantial period of time to get ready for its intended 
use  or  sale  are  capitalised  as  part  of  the  cost  of  the 
asset.  All  other  borrowing  costs  are  expensed  in  the 
period  in  which  they  occur.  Borrowing  costs  consist 
of  interest  and  other  costs  that  an  entity  incurs  in 
connection  with  the  borrowing  of  funds.  Borrowing 
cost also includes exchange differences to the extent 
regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs.

g)  Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations 

Functional and presentational currency

The Consolidated financial statements are presented in 
Indian Rupees (`). Items included in the Consolidated 
Financial statements of the Group are recorded using 
the currency of the primary economic environment in 
which  the  Group  operates  (the  ‘functional  currency’). 
All  the  financial  information  presented  in  `  except 
where otherwise stated and the values are rounded to 
nearest Lakhs upto two decimal places.

Transactions and balances

Transactions  in  foreign  currencies  are  translated  into 
the functional currency of the Group at the exchange 
rates  at  the  date  the  transactions  or  an  average  rate 
if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the 
date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities 
denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are  translated  into 
the  functional  currency  at  the  exchange  rate  at  the 
reporting  date.Non-monetary  assets  and  liabilities 
that are measured at fair value in a foreign currencies 
are  translated  into  the  functional  currency  at  the 
exchange  rate  when  the  fair  value  was  determined. 
Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured 
in terms of historical cost 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  foreign  currency 
borrowings  relating  to  assets  under  construction  for 
future productive use, which are included in the cost of 
those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment 
to interest costs on those foreign currency borrowings.

Advances  received  or  paid  in  foreign  currency  are 
recognised at exchange rate on the date of transaction 
and not re-translated.

Group Companies

The results and financial position of foreign operations 
from 
that  have  a 
the  presentation  currency  are  translated  into  the 
presentation currency as follows:

functional  currency  different 

• 

• 

assets and liabilities are translated at the closing 
rate at the date of that balance sheet

income  and  expenses  are  translated  at  average 
exchange  rates  (unless  this  is  not  a  reasonable 
approximation  of  the  cumulative  effect  of  the 
rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which 
case income and expenses are translated at the 
dates  of  the  transactions),  On  Consolidation,  all 
resulting exchange differences on translation are 
recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income,  that 
will be reclassified subsequently to statement of 
profit and loss. 

h)  Revenue Recognition

The  Group  derives  revenue  primarily  from  export  of 
manufactured and traded goods.

Revenue from contract with customers  

to  the  customer  at  an  amount  that  reflects  the 
consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled 
in exchange for transferring distinct goods or services 
to  a  customer  as  specified  in  the  contract,  excluding 
the  amount  collected  on  behalf  of  third  parties(for 
example,  taxes  and  duties  collected  on  behalf  of 
government) and net of returns & discounts.

The Group considers whether there are other promises in 
the contract that are separate performance obligations 
to  which  a  protion  of  the  transaction  price  needs  to 
be  allocated.  In  determining  the  transaction  price  for 
the  sale  of  products,  the  Group  considers  the  effect 
of  variable  consideration,  the  existence  of  significant 
financing  component,  non-cash  consideration,  and 
consideration payable to the customer (if any).

The Group assesses its revenue arrangements against 
specific recognition criterior like exposure to significant 
risks  &  rewards  associated  with  the  sale  of  goods  or 
services.  When  deciding  the  most  appropriate  basis 
for  presenting  revenue  or  costs  of  revenue,  both 
the  legal  form  and  substance  of  the  agreement  are 
reviewed  to  determine  each  party’s  respective  role  in 
the transaction.

Specific revenue recognition criteria:

(i)  Sale of products

Revenue  from  sale  of  products  is  recognised 
at  the  point  in  time  when  control  of  product  is 
transferred  to  the  customer.  In  case  of  Export 
sale it is on the basis of date of airway bill/bill of 
lading/Forwarder Cargo Receipts.

(ii)   Job work  income

Revenue  from    job  work  on  the  product    is 
recognised  at  the  point  in  time  when  control  of  
services  is transferred to the customer, generally 
on the  delivery of the product after completion of 
job work.

(iii)  Export Incentives

Export  Incentives  under  various  schemes  are 
accounted in the year of export.

(iv)  Other Incomes

a)  Sale of software/ SAP income is recognised 
at the delivery of complete module & patches 
group 
(through 
companies).

reimbursement 

from 

Revenue  from  contract  with  customers  is  recognised 
when control of the goods or services are transferred 

b)  Rental  Income  is  recognised    on  accrual 

basis as per the terms of agreement.

c) 

In  respect  of  interest  income,  revenue  is 
recognised  on  the  time  proportion  basis, 
taking into account the amount outstanding 
and the rate of interest applicable.

d)  Dividend  Income  is  recognised  when  the 

right to receive is established.

Variable Consideration

the  Group  estimates 

If  the  consideration  in  a  contract  includes  a  variable 
amount, 
the  amount  of 
consideration  to  which  it  will  be  entitled  in  exchange 
for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable 
consideration  is  estimated  at  contract  inception  and 
constrained until it is highly probable that a significant 
revenue reversal in the amount of revenue recognised 
will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the 
variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Significant Financing Component

Generally, the Group does not receive short term or long 
term  advances  from  its  customers  except  in  certain 
scenarios. Using the practical expedient in Ind AS 115, 
the  Group  does  not  adjust  the  promised  amount  of 
consideration for the effects of a significant financing 
component  if  it  expects,  at  contract  inception,  that 
the  period  between  the  transfer  of  promised  good  or 
service to the customer and when the customer pays 
for good or service will be one year or less. The Group 
does not expect to have any contracts where the period 
between the transfer of promised goods and services 
to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds 
one year. As a consequence, it does not adjust any of 
the transaction prices for the time value of money.

Contract balances 

Contract assets 

A  contract  asset  is  the  right  to  consideration  in 
exchange  for  goods  or  services  transferred  to  the 
customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods 
or  services  to  a  customer  before  the  customer  pays 
consideration  or  before  payment  is  due,  a  contract 
asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is 
conditional.

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount 
of  consideration  that  is  unconditional  (i.e.,  only  the 
passage  of  time  is  required  before  payment  of  the 
consideration  is  due).  Refer  to  accounting  policies  of 
financial  assets  in  section  Financial  instruments  – 
initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities

A  contract  liability  is  the  obligation  to  transfer  goods 
or  services  to  a  customer  for  which  the  Group  has 
received consideration (or an amount of consideration 
is  due)  from  the  customer.  Contract  liabilities  are 
recognised as revenue when the Group performs under 

the contract.

Cost to obtain a contract

The  Group  does  not  capitalise  costs  to  obtain  a 
contract  because  majorly  the  contracts  have  terms 
that  do  not  extend  beyond  one  year.  The  Group  does 
not  have  a  significant  amount  of  capitalised  costs 
related to fulfilment.

i) 

Inventories

i) 

ii) 

iii) 

Inventories of finished goods manufactured by the 
Group  are  valued  style-wise  and  at  lower  of  cost 
and  estimated  net  realisable  value.  Cost  includes 
material  cost  on  weighted  average  basis  and 
appropriate share of overheads incurred in bringing 
them  to  their  present  location  and  condition.  In 
the  case  of  manufactured  inventories  and  work-
in-progress,  cost  includes  an  appropriate  share 
of  fixed  production  overheads  based  on  normal 
operating capacity..

Inventories of finished goods (traded) are valued 
at  lower  of  procurement  cost  (FIFO  method)  or 
estimated net realisable value.

Inventories  of  raw  material,  work  in  progress, 
accessories  &  consumables  are  valued  at  cost 
(weighted  average  method)  or  at  estimated 
net  realisable  value  whichever  is  lower.  WIP 
cost  includes  appropriate  portion  of  allocable 
overheads.  Raw  materials  and  other  supplies 
held for use in the production of finished products 
are not written down below cost except in cases 
where  material  prices  have  declined  and  it  is 
estimated  that  the  cost  of  the  finished  products 
will exceed their net realisable value.

iv)  Net realisable value is the estimated selling price 
in the ordinary course of business, less estimated 
costs  of  completion  and  estimated  costs 
necessary  to  make  the  sale.  The  comparison  of 
cost and net realisable value is made on a item by 
item  basis.  Obsolete  or  slow  moving  inventories 
are  identified  from  time  to  time  and  a  provision 
is  made  for  such  inventories  as  appropriate  on 
periodic basis.

j) 

Leases

ii)  Lease Liabilities

The  Group  assesses  at  contract  inception  whether  a 

contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract 

conveys  the  right  to  control  the  use  of  an  identified 

asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Group as a lessee 

The  Group  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  Group  assesses  whether:  (i)  the 

contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the 

Group  has  substantially  all  of  the  economic  benefits 

from use of the asset through the period of the lease 

and  (iii)  the  Group  has  the  right  to  direct  the  use  of 

the asset. The Group applies a single recognition and 

measurement approach for all leases, except for short-

term leases and leases of low-value assets. For these 

short-term and low value leases, the Group recognises 

the  lease  payments  as  an  operating  expense  on  a 

straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Group 

recognises  lease  liabilities  to  make  lease  payments 

and  right-of-use  assets  representing  the  right  to  use 

the underlying assets as below::

i) 

Right-of-use assets

The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the 

commencement  date  of  the  lease  (i.e.,  the  date 

the  underlying  asset  is  available  for  use).  Right-

of-use  assets  are  measured  at  cost,  less  any 

accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, 

and  adjusted  for  any  remeasurement  of  lease 

liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes 

the  amount  of  lease  liabilities  recognised,  initial 

direct  costs  incurred,  and  lease  payments  made 

at  or  before  the  commencement  date  less  any 

lease  incentives  received.  Right-of-use  assets 

are  depreciated  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the 

shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful 

lives of the underlying assets If ownership of the 

leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of 

the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a 

purchase option, depreciation is calculated using 

the  estimated  useful  life  of  the  asset.  The  right-

of-use assets are also subject to impairment.

At  the  commencement  date  of  the  lease,  the 
Group  recognises  lease  liabilities  measured  at 
the present value of lease payments to be made 
over the lease term. The lease payments include 
fixed  payments  (including  in  substance  fixed 
payments)  less  any  lease  incentives  receivable, 
variable lease payments that depend on an index 
or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under 
residual  value  guarantees.  The  lease  payments 
also  include  the  exercise  price  of  a  purchase 
option  reasonably  certain  to  be  exercised  by  the 
Group and payments of penalties for terminating 
the  lease,  if  the  lease  term  reflects  the  Group 
exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease 
payments  that  do  not  depend  on  an  index  or  a 
rate  are  recognised  as  expenses  (unless  they 
are incurred to produce inventories) in the period 
in  which  the  event  or  condition  that  triggers  the 
payment occurs. In calculating the present value 
of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental 
borrowing rate at the lease commencement date 
because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not 
readily  determinable.  After  the  commencement 
date,  the  amount  of  lease  liabilities  is  increased 
to  reflect  the  accretion  of  interest  and  reduced 
for  the  lease  payments  made.  In  addition,  the 
carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured 
if  there  is  a  modification,  a  change  in  the  lease 
term,  a  change  in  the  lease  payments  (e.g., 
changes  to  future  payments  resulting  from  a 
change in an index or rate used to determine such 
lease payments) or a change in the assessment 
of  an  option  to  purchase  the  underlying  asset. 
The Group’s lease liabilities are included in other 
current and non-current financial liabilities.

(iii)  Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

the  short-term 

The  Group  applies 
lease 
recognition  exemption  to  its  short-term  leases 
(i.e.,  those  leases  that  have  a  lease  term  of  12 
months  or  less  from  the  commencement  date 
and  do  not  contain  a  purchase  option).  It  also 
applies the lease of low-value assets recognition 
exemption  to  leases  that  are  considered  to  be 
low value. Lease payments on short-term leases 
and leases of low-value assets are recognised as 
expense  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the  lease 
term.  “Lease  liability”  and  “Right  of  Use”  asset 
have  been  separately  presented  in  the  Balance 
Sheet  and  lease  payments  have  been  classified 
as financing cash flows.

Group as a lessor

Leases for which the Group is a lessor is classified 
as finance or operating lease. Leases in which the 
Group does not transfer substantially all the risks 
and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset 
are classified as operating leases. Rental income 
arising  is  accounted  for  on  a  straight-line  basis 
over the lease terms. Initial direct costs incurred 
in  negotiating  and  arranging  an  operating  lease 
are  added  to  the  carrying  amount  of  the  leased 
asset and recognised over the lease term on the 
same  basis  as  rental  income.  Contingent  rents 
are recognised as revenue in the period in which 
they are earned.

k)  Employee’s benefits

Short  term  employee  benefits:  All  employee  benefits 
expected  to  be  settled  wholly  within  twelve  months 
of  rendering  the  service  are  classified  as  short-term 
employee  benefits.  When  an  employee  has  rendered 
service  to  the  Group  during  an  accounting  period, 
the  Group  recognises  the  undiscounted  amount  of 
short-term  employee  benefits  expected  to  be  paid  in 
exchange for that service as an expense unless another 
Ind AS requires or permits the inclusion of the benefits 
in  the  cost  of  an  asset.  Benefits  such  as  salaries, 
wages and short-term compensated absences, bonus 
and ex-gratia etc. are recognised in statement of profit 
and loss in the period in which the employee renders 
the related service.

A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be 
paid  after  deducting  any  amount  already  paid  under 
short-term  cash  bonus  or  profit-sharing  plans  if  the 
Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to 
pay  this  amount  as  a  result  of  past  service  provided 
by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated 
reliably.  If  the  amount  already  paid  exceeds  the 
undiscounted  amount  of  the  benefits,  the  Group 
recognises that excess as an asset /prepaid expense to 
the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, 
a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

Defined contribution plan

A  defined  contribution  plan  is  a  post-employment 
benefit  plan  under  which  an  entity  pays  fixed 
contributions to a statutory authority and will have no 
legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts.

Retirement  benefits  in  the  form  of  Provident  Fund, 
Employee  State 
Insurance  Scheme  and  Labour 
Welfare  Fund  Scheme  are  defined  contribution  plans. 
to  government 
The  contributions  paid/payable 

206

administered  respective  funds  are  recognised  as  an 
expense  in  the  Statement  of  Profit  and  loss  during 
the  period  in  which  the  employee  renders  the  related 
service.

Defined benefit plan

A  defined  benefit  plan  is  a  post-employment  benefit 
plan other than a defined contribution plan.

The Group has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined 
benefit  retirement  plan  covering  eligible  employees. 
The plan provides for a lump sum payment to vested 
employees  at  retirement,  death  while  in  employment 
or on termination of employment of an amount based 
on  the  respective  employee’s  salary  and  the  tenure 
of  employment.  Vesting  occurs  upon  completion 
of  five  years  of  service.  The  Group  accounts  for  the 
liability  for  gratuity  benefits  payable  in  future  based 
on an independent actuarial valuation report using the 
projected unit credit method as at the year end. 

The obligations are measured at the present value of 
the estimated future cash flows. The discount rate is 
generally  based  upon  the  market  yields  available  on 
Government  bonds  at  the  reporting  date  with  a  term 
that matches that of the liabilities. 

Re-measurements,  comprising  actuarial  gains  and 
losses,  the  effect  of  the  changes  to  the  asset  ceiling 
(if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding 
interest  and  if  applicable),  is  reflected  immediately  in 
Other Comprehensive Income in the statement of profit 
and loss. All other expenses related to defined benefit 
plans  are  recognised  in  statement  of  profit  and  loss 
as  employee  benefit  expenses.  Re-measurements 
recognised 
Income  will 
in  Other  Comprehensive 
not  be  reclassified  to  statement  of  profit  and  loss 
hence  it  is  treated  as  part  of  retained  earnings  in  the 
statement of changes in equity. Gains or losses on the 
curtailment  or  settlement  of  any  defined  benefit  plan 
are  recognised  when  the  curtailment  or  settlement 
occurs.  Curtailment  gains  and  losses  are  accounted 
for as past service costs. 

Other long term employee benefits

As  per  the  Group’s  policy,  eligible  leaves  can  be 
accumulated by the employees and carried forward to 
future  periods  to  either  be  utilised  during  the  service, 
or  encashed.  Encashment  can  be  made  during  the 
service, on early retirement, on withdrawal of scheme, 
at  resignation  by  employee  and  upon  death  of 
employee.  The  scale  of  benefits  is  determined  based

on the seniority and the respective employee’s salary. 
The Group records an obligation for such compensated 
absences in the period in which the employee renders 
the  services  that 
increase  this  entitlement.  The 
obligation  is  measured  on  the  basis  of  independent 
actuarial  valuation  using  the  projected  unit  credit 
method.

l) 

Provisions

General

Provisions  are  recognised  when  the  Group  has  a 
present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of 
a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources 
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle 
the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of 
the amount of the obligation. 

When the Group expects some or all of a provision to 
be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a 
separate  asset,  but  only  when  the  reimbursement  is 
virtually certain.

The expense relating to a provision is presented in the 
statement of profit and loss, net of any reimbursement. 
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. The unwinding of discount is recognised in the 
statement of profit and loss as a finance cost.

Provisions  are  reviewed  at  the  end  of  each  reporting 
period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. 
If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources 
would be required to settle the obligation, the provision 
is reversed.

m)  Financial instruments

A  financial  instrument  is  a  contract  that  gives  rise  to 
a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability 
or equity instrument for another entity.Financial assets 
and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group 
becomes  a  party  to  the  contractual  provisions  of  the 
instruments.

(i)  Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

A financial asset is initially recognised at fair value. 
In case of financial assets which are recognised 
at  fair  value  through  profit  and  loss  (FVTPL),  its 
transaction cost are recognised in the statement 
of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction 
cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the 
financial asset.

Subsequent measurement

For  purposes  of  subsequent  measurement, 
financial assets are classified in three categories:

-  

- 

- 

Financial Asset carried at amortised cost

Financial  Asset  at  fair  value  through  other 
comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial  Asset  at  fair  value  through  profit 
and loss (FVTPL)

Financial asset carried at amortised cost

A  financial  asset  is  subsequently  measured  at 
amortised  cost  if  it  is  held  within  a  business 
model  whose  objective  is  to  hold  the  asset  in 
order  to  collect  contractual  cash  flows  and  the 
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise 
on  specified  dates  to  cash  flows  that  are  solely 
payments of principal and interest on the principal 
amount outstanding.

Financial  asset  at  fair  value  through  other 
comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair 
value  through  other  comprehensive  income  if  it 
is held within a business model whose objective 
is  achieved  by  both  collecting  contractual 
cash  flows  and  selling  financial  assets  and  the 
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise 
on  specified  dates  to  cash  flows  that  are  solely 
payments of principal and interest on the principal 
amount outstanding.

Financial  asset  at  fair  value  through  profit  and 
loss (FVTPL)

A financial asset which is not classified in any of 
the above categories are subsequently fair valued 
through profit or loss.

De-recognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a 
financial asset) is primarily derecognised when:

(i)  The contractual rights to receive cash flows 

from the asset has expired, or

(ii)  The  Group  has  transferred  its  contractual 
rights  to  receive  cash  flows  from  the 
financial asset or has assumed an obligation 
to pay the received cash flows in full without 
material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-
through’  arrangement;  and  either  (a)  the 
Group  has  transferred  substantially  all  the

risks  and  rewards  of  the  asset,  or  (b)  the 
Group  has  neither  transferred  nor  retained 
substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of 
the asset, but has transferred control of the 
asset.

(ii)  Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial  liabilities  are  classified,  at  initial 
recognition,  as  financial  liabilities  at  fair 
value through profit or loss.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially 
at  fair  value  and,  in  the  case  of  loans  and 
borrowings  and  payables,  net  of  directly 
attributable  transaction  costs.  The  Group 
include  borrowings, 
financial 
trade  and  other  payables,  security  deposits 
received etc.

liabilities 

Subsequent measurement

For  purposes  of  subsequent  measurement, 
financial 
in  two 
liabilities  are  classified 
categories:

of  a  new  liability.  The  difference  in  the 
respective  carrying  amounts  is  recognised 
in the statement of profit and loss.

(iii)  Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset 
and  the  net  amount  is  reported  in  the  balance 
sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right 
to offset the recognised amounts and there is an 
intention  to  settle  on  a  net  basis,  to  realise  the 
assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously

(iv)  Derivative financial instruments 

Till  March  31,  2019,  the  forward  currency 
contracts  were  used  to  hedge  foreign  currency 
risks.  Such  derivative  financial  instruments  are 
initially  recognised  at  fair  value  on  the  date  on 
which a derivative contract is entered into and are 
subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives 
are carried as financial assets when the fair value 
is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair 
value is negative. Any gains or losses arising from 
changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken 
directly to statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities at amortised cost

(v)  Hedge Accounting

- 

- 

Financial liabilities at fair value through 
profit and loss (FVTPL)

A financial liability is classified as at FVTPL 
if  it  is  classified  as  held  for  trading,  or  it  is 
a  derivative  or  it  is  designated  as  such  as 
liabilities  at 
initial  recognition.  Financial 
FVTPL  are  measured  at  fair  value  and  net 
gains  and  losses,  including  any  interest 
expense, are recognised in the Statement of 
Profit and loss. Other financial liabilities are 
subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost 
using the effective interest method. Interest 
expense  is  recognised  in  the  Statement  of 
Profit and loss.

De-recognition

A financial liability is derecognised 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 de-recognition 
of  the  original  liability  and  the  recognition 

208

With  effect  from  April  2019,  the  Group  adopted 
that  are 
Hedge  Accounting.The  derivatives 
designated  as  hedging  instrument  under  Ind 
AS  109  to  mitigate  risk  arising  out  of  foreign 
currency transactions are accounted for as cash 
flow  hedges.  The  Group  enters  into  hedging 
instruments 
in  accordance  with  policies  as 
approved  by  the  Board  of  Directors  with  written 
principles  which 
is  consistent  with  the  risk 
management strategy of the Group.

The  hedge 
instruments  are  designated  and 
documented  as  hedges  at  the  inception  of  the 
contract. The effectiveness of hedge instruments 
is assessed and measured at inception and on an 
ongoing basis.

When  a  derivative  is  designated  as  a  cash  flow 
instrument,  the  effective  portion  of 
hedging 
changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  is 
recognised in OCI, e.g., cash flow hedging reserve 
and  accumulated 
in  the  cash  flow  hedging 
reserve.  Any  ineffective  portion  of  changes  in 
the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  is  recognised 
immediately  in  the  statement  of  profit  and  loss. 
The amount accumulated is retained in cash flow 
hedge  reserve  and  reclassified  to  profit  or  loss

in  the  same  period  or  periods  during  which  the 
hedged  item  affects  the  statement  of  profit  and 
loss.

If  the  hedging 
longer  meets 
instrument  no 
the  criteria  for  hedge  accounting,  then  hedge

in  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  till  the  period  the 
hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedging 
reserve  until  the  forecasted  transaction  occurs. 
The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised 
in  the  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  is  reclassified 
to  the  Statement  of  Profit  and  Loss  upon  the 
occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. 
If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected 
to  occur,  then  the  amount  accumulated  in  cash 
flow  hedging  reserve  is  reclassified  immediately 
in the statement of profit and loss.

the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot 
be  tested  individually  are  grouped  together  into  the 
smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows 
from  continuing  use  that  are  largely  independent  of 
the  cash  inflows  of  other  assets  or  groups  of  assets 
(‘CGU’).

An  impairment  loss  is  recognised,  if  the  carrying 
amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated 
recoverable amount and is recognised in statement of 
profit and loss. Impairment losses recognised in prior 
periods  are  assessed  at  end  of  each  reporting  period 
for any indications that the loss has decreased or no 
longer  exists.  An  impairment  loss  is  reversed  if  there 
has been a change in the estimates used to determine 
the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed 
only  to  the  extent  that  the  asset’s  carrying  amount 
does not exceed the carrying amount that would have 
been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if 
no impairment loss had been recognised.

p)  Fair value measurement 

n) 

Impairment of financial assets 

the  expected  credit 

The  Group  measures 
loss 
associated  with  its  assets  based  on  historical  trend, 
industry  practices  and  the  business  environment  in 
which  the  entity  operates  or  any  other  appropriate 
basis.  The  impairment  methodology  applied  depends 
on  whether  there  has  been  a  significant  increases 
in  credit  risk.  Expected  credit  loss  is  the  weighted 
average of the difference between all contractual cash 
flows that are due to the Group in accordance with the 
contracts and all the cash flows that the Group expects 
to receive, discounted at original effective interest rate 
with  the  respective  risk  of  defaults  occuring  as  the 
weights.

o) 

Impairment of non-financial assets

The  carrying  amounts  of  the  Group’s  non-financial 
assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed at 
the end of each reporting period to determine whether 
there  is  any  indication  of  impairment.  If  any  such 
indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount 
is estimated.

The  recoverable  amount  of  an  asset  or  cash-
generating unit (‘CGU’) is the greater of its value in use 
or its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in 
use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to 
their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax  discount  rate  that 
reflects current market assessments of the time value 
of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For 

Fair  value  is  the  price  that  would  be  received  to  sell 
an  asset  or  paid  to  transfer  a  liability  in  an  orderly 
the 
transaction  between  market  participants  at 
measurement  date.  The  fair  value  measurement  is 
based on the presumption that the transaction to sell 
the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

(a) 

In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

A  fair  value  measurement  of  a  non-financial  asset 
takes  into  account  a  market  participant’s  ability  to 
generate  economic  benefits  by  using  the  asset  in  its 
highest and best use or by selling it to another market 
participant that would use the asset in its highest and 
best use.

techniques 

that  are 
The  Group  uses  valuation 
appropriate 
in  the  circumstances  and  for  which 
sufficient  data  are  available  to  measure  fair  value, 
maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and 
minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

measured or disclosed in the financial statements are 
categorised  within  the  fair  value  hierarchy,  described 
as  follows,  based  on  the  lowest  level  input  that  is 
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: 
Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active 
markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level  2  —  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the

measurement is directly or indirectly observable

Level  3  —  Valuation  techniques  for  which  the 
lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to  the  fair  value 
measurement is unobservable

For  assets  and  liabilities  that  are  recognised  in  the 
financial  statements  on  a  recurring  basis,  the  Group 
determines whether transfers have occurred between 
levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation 
(based  on  the  lowest  level  input  that  is  significant  to 
the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of 
each reporting period..

q)  Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured 
at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid 
to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws 
used to compute the amount are those that are enacted 
or substantively enacted, at the reporting date.

Current income tax relating to items recognised outside 
profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either 
in  other  comprehensive  income  (OCI)  or  in  equity). 
Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the 
underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. 
Management  periodically  evaluates  positions  taken 
in  the  tax  returns  with  respect  to  situations  in  which 
applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation 
and establishes provisions where appropriate.

Current  tax  assets  are  offset  against  current  tax 
liabilities if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists 
to  set  off  the  recognised  amounts  and  there  is  an 
intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the 
asset and settle the liability simultaneously..

Deferred tax

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 
tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when 
the  asset  is  realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based 
on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively enacted at the reporting date. 

Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  all  deductible 
temporary  differences,  the  carry  forward  of  unused 
tax  credits  and  any  unused  tax  losses.  Deferred  tax 
assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable 
that  taxable  profit  will  be  available  against  which 
the  deductible  temporary  differences,  and  the  carry 
forward  of  unused  tax  credits  and  unused  tax  losses 
can be utilised. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the 

210

tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when 
the  asset  is  realised  or  the  liability  is  settled,  based 
on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively  enacted  at  the  balance  sheet  date.  Tax 
relating  to  items  recognised  directly  in  equity/other 
comprehensive  income  is  recognised  in  respective 
head and not in the statement of profit & loss. 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed 
at each balance sheet date and is adjusted to the extent 
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit 
will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be 
recovered.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset 
if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax 
assets  against  current  tax  liabilities  and  the  deferred 
taxes  relate  to  the  same  taxable  entity  and  the  same 
taxation authority.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit 
or  loss  is  recognised  outside  profit  or  loss  (either  in 
other comprehensive income or in equity).

Minimum Alternate Tax

Minimum  Alternate  Tax  (MAT)  paid  in  the  year  is 
charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as current 
tax.The  Group  recognises  MAT  credit  available  as 
an  asset  only  to  the  extent  that  there  is  convincing 
evidence that normal income tax will be paid during the 
specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is 
allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which MAT 
credit is recognised as an asset in accordance with the 
Guidance  Note  on  Accounting  for  Credit  Available  in 
respect  of  Minimum  Alternate  Tax  under  the  Income 
Tax Act, 1961, the said asset is created by way of credit 
to the Statement of Profit and Loss and shown as “MAT 
Credit Entitlement”. The Group reviews the “MAT Credit 
Entitlement”  asset  at  each  reporting  date  and  writes 
down the asset to the extent the Group does not have 
convincing evidence that it will pay normal tax during 
the specified period.

In accordance with Ind AS 12 Group is grouping MAT 
credit entitlement with Deferred Tax Assets/Liabilities 
(Net).

r)  Cash1 and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise 
cash  at  banks  and  on  hand  and  short-term  deposits 
with an original maturity of three months or less, which 
are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

NOTES
to consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash 
and cash equivalents consist of cash balance on hand, 
cash  balance  at  banks  and  short-term  deposits,  as 
defined  above,  net  of  outstanding  bank  overdrafts  as 
they are considered an integral part of the Group’s cash 
management.

s)  Statement of Cash flows

The statement of cash flows have been prepared under 
indirect method, whereby profit or loss is adjusted for 
the  effects  of  transactions  of  a  non-cash  nature,  any 
deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash 
receipts or payments and items of income or expense 
associated with investing or financing cash flows.

t) 

Earnings per share (EPS) 

In determining earnings per share, the Group considers 
the net profit after tax and includes the post tax effect 
of any extraordinary items.

Basic  EPS  amounts  are  calculated  by  dividing  the 
profit  for  the  year  attributable  to  the  shareholders  of 
the  Group  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity 
shares outstanding as at the end of reporting period.

Diluted  EPS  amounts  are  calculated  by  dividing  the 
profit  attributable  to  the  shareholders  of  the  Group 
by  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 
outstanding during the year plus the weighted average 
number  of  Equity  shares  that  would  be  issued  on 
conversion  of  all  the  dilutive  potential  equity  shares 
into equity shares.

Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted 
as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been 
issued  at  a  later  date.  A  transaction  is  considered  to 
be antidilutive if its effect is to increase the amount of 
EPS, either by lowering the share count or increase the 
earnings.

u)  Government grants

Grants  from  the  government  are  recognised  at  their 
fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the 

grant will be received and the Group will comply with all 
attached conditions.

Government  grants  relating  to  the  purchase  of 
property,  plant  and  equipment  are  included  in  non-
current liabilities as deferred income and are credited 
to  Profit  and  Loss  on  a  straight  -  line  basis  over  the 
expected lives of related assets and presented within 
other income.

v)  Contingent liabilities and contingent assets 

A  contingent  liability  exists  when  there  is  a  possible 

but  not  probable  obligation,  or  a  present  obligation 

that  may,  but  probably  will  not,  require  an  outflow  of 

resources,  or  a  present  obligation  whose  amount 

cannot  be  estimated  reliably.  Contingent  liabilities 

do  not  warrant  provisions,  but  are  disclosed  unless 

the  possibility  of  outflow  of  resources  is  remote. 

Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed 

in the financial statements. However, contingent assets 

are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that 

an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and 

related  income  are  recognised  in  the  period  in  which 

the change occurs.

w)  Research & development costs

Research  and  development  costs  that  are  in  nature 

of  tangible  assets  and  are  expected  to  generate 

probable  future  economic  benefits  are  capitalised  as 

tangible assets. Revenue expenditure on research and 

development is charged to the statement of profit and 

loss in the year in which it is incurred.

x)  Exceptional items

When items of income and expense within statement 

of  profit  and  loss  from  ordinary  activities  are  of  such 

size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant 

to explain the performance of the Group for the period, 

the  nature  and  amount  of  such  material  items  are 

disclosed seperately as exceptional items.

d)  Reconciliation of Effective tax Rate and itemwise movement of deferred tax 

Since  the  Holding  Company  and  its  subsidiaries  operates  in  different  tax  jurisdictions  and  has  different  tax  laws,  refer 
standalone financial statements of Holding Company and subsidiaries as at reporting date for effective tax reconciliation 
and itemwise movement of deferred tax.

e)  The Group offsets tax assets and liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and 
current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax 
authority.

f)  MAT  paid  can  be  carried  forward  for  a  period  of  15  years  and  can  be  set  off  against  the  future  tax  liabilities.  MAT  is 
recognised as a deferred tax asset only when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic 
benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

b)   Employee Benefit Obligation in case of Pearl Global HK Limited 

Policy for the Group’s operation in the Republic of Indonesia

The  Group  determines  its  post-employment  benefits  obligation  under  the  Labor  Law  of  the  Republic  of  Indonesia  No. 
13/2003. The cost of providing post-employment benefits is determined using “Projected Unit Credit” method. Actuarial 
gains or losses are recognised as income or expense when the net cumulative unrecognised actuarial gains and losses 
at the end of the previous reporting year exceeded the higher of 10% of the defined benefit obligation and 10% of the fair 
value of plan assets at that date. These gains or losses are recognised on a straight-line basis method over the expected 
average  remaining  working  lives  of  the  employees.  Past  service  cost  arising  from  the  introduction  of  a  defined  benefit 
plan or changes in the benefits obligation of an existing plan are required to be amortised over the period until the benefits 
concerned become vested.

Policy for the Group’s operation in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam 

The severance allowance for employees is accrued at the end of each reporting period for all employees having worked at 
the Group for full 12 months and above. Working time serving as the basis for calculating severance allowance shall be the 
total actual working time subtracting the time when the employees have made unemployment insurance contributions as 
prescribed by law, and the working time when severance allowance has been paid to the employees. The allowance made 
for each year of service equals to a half of an average monthly salary under the Vietnamese Labour Code, Social Insurance 
Code and relevant guiding documents. The average monthly salary used for calculation of severance allowance shall be 
adjusted to be the average of the 6 consecutive months nearest to the date of the financial statements at the end of each 
reporting period. The increase or decrease in the accrued amount shall be recorded in the statement of profit or loss or 
other comprehensive income.

CORPORATE OVERVIEWSTATUTORY REPORTSFINANCIAL STATEMENTSANNUAL REPORT 2021-22 
NOTES
to consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022 (Contd.)

Policy for the Group’s operation in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China

The Group participates in Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (“MPF Scheme”) for its employees in Hong Kong. The MPF 
Scheme is registered with the Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme Authority under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes 
Ordinance. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Group in funds under the control of an 
independent  trustee.  Pursuant  to  the  rules  of  the  MPF  Scheme,  each  of  the  employer  and  employees  are  required  to 
make contributions to the scheme at rates specified in the rules. The MPF Scheme is a defined contribution plan and the 
Group is only obliged to make the required contributions under the scheme. No forfeited contribution is available to reduce 
the  contribution  payable  in  the  future  years.  The  retirement  benefit  cost  arising  from  the  MPF  Scheme  charged  to  the 
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income represent contribution payable to the funds by 
the Group in accordance with the rules of the MPF Scheme.

c)   Defined benefit plans

In accordance with Ind AS 19  “Employee benefits”, an actuarial valuation on the basis of “Projected Unit Credit Method” 
was  carried  out,  through  which  the  Group  is  able  to  determine  the  present  value  of  obligations.  “Projected  Unit  Credit 
Method” recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of employees benefit entitlement and measures 
each unit separately to built up the final obligation.

i) 

Gratuity scheme 

The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, employee who has completed 
five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the member’s length of 
service and salary at retirement age. The gratuity is funded in current year for all the units and maintained by Life 
Insurance Corporation of India . Till previous financial year 2020-21, the status of gratuity was as under:

a)  Gratuity in case of Gurgaon Division was funded & maintained by Life Insurance Corporation of India 

b)  Gratuity in case of Chennai & Banglore Division was unfunded.

ii)  Other long term employee benefits

As per the Group policy, eligible leaves can be accumulated by the employees and carried forward to future periods to 
either be utilised during the service, or encashed. Encashment can be made during the service, on early retirement, on 
withdrawal of scheme, at resignation by employee and upon death of employee. The scale of benefits is determined 
based on the seniority and the respective employee’s salary. The Group records an obligation for such compensated 
absences in the period in which the employee renders the services that increase this entitlement. The obligation is 
measured on the basis of independent actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method.

Re-measurements, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) 
and the return on plan assets (excluding interest and if applicable), is reflected immediately in Other Comprehensive 
Income  in  the  statement  of  profit  and  loss.  All  other  expenses  related  to  defined  benefit  plans  are  recognised  in 
statement of profit and loss as employee benefit expenses. Re-measurements recognised in Other Comprehensive 
Income  will  not  be  reclassified  to  statement  of  profit  and  loss  hence  it  is  treated  as  part  of  retained  earnings  in 
the  statement  of  changes  in  equity.  Gains  or  losses  on  the  curtailment  or  settlement  of  any  defined  benefit  plan 
are recognised when the curtailment or settlement occurs. Curtailment gains and losses are accounted for as past 
service costs.

d)  The following tables summarise the components of net benefit expense recognised in the Statement of profit and loss and 
the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the defined benefit plan (viz. gratuity and compensated 
absences).Leave encashment include earned leaves and sick leaves. These have been provided on accrual basis, based on

The estimates of future salary increases, considered in actuarial valuation, take account of inflation, seniority, promotion 
and  other  relevant  factors,  such  as  supply  and  demand in  the  employment  market.  The  actuarial assumptions  include 
economic assumptions of discount rate and rate of increase in compensation levels. Other assumptions considered are 
demographic assumptions and withdrawal rate while calculating the obligations as at year end.

items in US dollar. These forecast transactions are highly probable. The foreign exchange forward contract balances vary 
with the level of expected foreign currency sales and changes in foreign exchange forward rates.

42 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

I 

Financial instruments

a)  Financial instruments by category 

Except Investment in equity instruments (Quoted) and investment in mutual funds which are measured at fair value 
through profit or loss, all other financial assets and liabilities viz. trade receivables, security deposits, cash and cash 
equivalents, other bank balances, interest receivable, other receivables, trade payables, employee related liabilities and 
borrowings, are measured at amortised cost. Derivative financial instruments and certain investments are measured 
at fair value through other comprehensive income.

b)  Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments 
that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are 
disclosed in the standalone financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in 
determining fair value, the group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the 
accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financials liabilities, including 
their levels of in the fair value hierarchy:

c)  Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques 

as follows.

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. 
as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There have been no transfers in either direction for the year ended 31 March 2022 and 31 March 2021.

d)  Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost

The carrying amounts of short-term trade and other receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents and other bank 
balances are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature.

For other financial liabilities/ assets that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.e)

The senior level management of respective companies in the Group oversees the management of these risks and is supported 
by treasury department that advises on the appropriate financial risk governance framework.

A.   Credit Risk 

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in finance loss to the Group. 
Credit  risk  arise  from  Cash  and  cash  equivalents,  deposit  with  banks,  trade  receivables  and  other  financial  assets 
measure  at  amortised  cost.  The  respective  companies  in  the  Group  continuosly  monitors  defaults  of  customers  and 
other counterparties and incorporate this information into its credit risk control. The carrying amount of financial assets 
represents the maximum credit exposure.

(i)  Trade receivables

The  Group’s  exposure  to  credit  risk  is  influenced  mainly  by  the  individual  characteristics  of  each  customer.  The 
credit risk is managed by the Group based on credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuosly monitoring 
the credit worthiness of the customers, to whom the Group grants credit period in the normal course of business 
inlcuding taking credit insurance against export receivables. The Group uses expected credit loss model to assess the 
impairement loss in trade receivables and makes an allowance of doubtful trade receivables using this model.

counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the respective Company’s Board of Directors on an annual 
basis, and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of their finance committee. The Group’s maximum 
exposure to the credit risk as at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 is majorly the carrying value of each class of 
financial assets.

- Policy of managing risk: The Group considers the probability of default upon initial recognition 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 Group compares the risk of default as at the reporting date with the 
risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. The Group considers reasonable and supportive forward-looking 
information such as significant changes in the value of guarantee or in the quality of exposure or credit enhancements.

B.  Liquidity risk

Liquidity  risk  is  the  risk  that  the  Group  may  not  be  able  to  meet  its  present  and  future  cash  and  collateral  obligations 
without incurring unacceptable losses.

The Group’s objective is to, maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements both under 
normal  &  stressed  conditions.  Prudent  liquidity  risk  management  implies  maintaining  sufficient  cash  and  marketable 
securities and the availability of fund through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when 
due and to close out market positions. 

These facilities and limits vary at company level (forming part of Group) and takes into account, future cash flows and the 
liquidity in which the entity operates.

The table below summarises the maturity profile of the financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments.

C.  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 risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk. Financial 
instruments affected by market risk are borrowings, short term deposits and derivative financial instruments.

The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021.

i) 

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of 
changes in market interest rates. The Group exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily 
to the long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

The  Group  main  interest  rate  risk  arises  from  long-term  borrowings  with  variable  rates,  which  expose  the  Group 
to interest rate risk. The Group manages its net exposure to interest rate risk related to borrowings, by balancing a 
proportion of fixed rate and floating rate borrowing in its total borrowing portfolio. Currently, the Group’s borrowings 
are within acceptable risk levels, as determined by the management, hence the Group has not taken any swaps to 
hedge the interest rate risk.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on the portion of  
borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Group profit before tax is affected through the impact 
on floating rate borrowings, as follows:

Decrease / (increase)

 (23.25)

 (7.34)

The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable 
market environment, showing a significantly higher volatility than in prior years.

ii)  Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes 
in exchange rates. Foreign currency risk senstivity is the impact on the profit before tax is due to changes in the fair 
value of monetary assets and liabilities on unhedged exposures. The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a 
reasonably possible change in applicable currency exchange rates, with all other variables held constant.
