Changes in Equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary

at March 31, 2023, and the loss, and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
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 Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for
the Audit of the 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 Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules there under, 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 audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and informing our

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended March 31, 2023
Note No.1: Corporate Information
Sir Shadi Lal Enterprises Limited (“the Company”) is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in India. The Company’s
equity shares are listed at one recognised stock exchanges in India (BSE). The registered office of the company is situated at Upper Doab
Sugar Mills, Shamli, Muzaffarnagar, U.P. 247776. The Company is engaged in diversified businesses mainly categorised into two segments
– Sugar business and Distillery business. Sugar businesses primarily comprise manufacture of sugar. Distillery business primarily comprises
manufacture of Spirit, Alcohol and Ethanol.
Note No.2: Significant Accounting Policies
This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements. These policies have
been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.1 Basis of preparation and presentation
(a) Compliance with Ind AS
The financial statements comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under Section 133 of the
Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) [Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015] (as amended from time to time) and other
relevant provisions of the Act.
(b) Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain assets and liabilities that are measured at
fair values or revalued amount at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the respective accounting policies described in
subsequent paragraphs.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation
technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or
liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these financial statements is determined on such a basis, except such as net
realisable value in Ind AS 2 Inventories or value in use in Ind AS 36 Impairment of Assets. Land is carried in the balance sheet on the
basis of revaluation model. Land is measured at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in INR and all values are rounded
off to the nearest Lakhs except when stated otherwise.
(c) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
Refer note-51 for segment information presented.
(d) Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns,
rebates, other similar allowances and goods and services tax.The Company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be
reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Company and specific criteria have been met for each
of the Company’s activities as described below.
(i) Recognising revenue from major business activities
a) Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which time all the following
conditions are satisfied:
• the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;
• the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor
effective control over the goods sold;

• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
• it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company; and
• the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
62

2.2 Interest income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the
amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and
at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected
life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.
2.3 Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may
not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable
amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of
assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered an
impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
2.4 Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the
period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily
take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are expended in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other cost
that an entity incurs in connection with borrowing of funds.
2.5 Income tax
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
a) Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the
statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that
are never taxable or deductible. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the end of the reporting period.
b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements
and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all
taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry
forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against
which those deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. Such
deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in
a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In
addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is
settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the
reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which
the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
c) Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or
directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the
tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.
2.6 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that are held for use in the production or supply for goods and services, or for
administrative purposes and are expected to be used during more than one period. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment
Contd.....

shall be recognised as an asset if and only if it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the
Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Freehold land is carried at revalued amount. A revaluation surplus is
recorded in OCI and credited to the assets revaluation surplus in other equity. Upon disposal any revaluation reserve relating to the
particular land being sold is transferred directly to retained earning. Revaluation of freehold land will be conducted once in three
years. All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
losses. Cost includes expenditure and borrowing cost that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items including borrowing
costs. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is
probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured
reliably. The revaluation will be conducted every three year by the company.
Expenditure during construction period incurred on the projects under implementation are treated as pre- operative expenses pending
allocation to the assets, and are included under “Capital Work-in-Progress”. These expenses are apportioned to fixed assets on
commencement of commercial production. Capital Work-in-Progress is stated at the amount incurred up to the date of Balance Sheet.
“Each part of item of property, plant and equipment, if significant in relation to the total cost of the item, is depreciated separately.
Further, parts of plant and equipment that are technically advised to be replaced at prescribed intervals/period of operation, insurance
spares and cost of inspection/overhauling are depreciated separately based on their specific useful life provided these are of significant
amounts commensurate with the size of the Company and scale of its operations. The carrying amount of any equipment / inspection
/ overhauling accounted for as separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit
or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.“
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise
from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment
is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss.
Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of its property, plant and equipment
recognised as at 1 April 2016 (transition date) measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of
the property, plant and equipment.
Depreciation methods, estimated useful lives and residual value
Depreciation commences when the assets are available for their intended use. Depreciation on Fixed Assets is provided on the written
down value method in accordance with Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 and adopted useful life as stated in Schedule II along
with residual value of 5% of the cost of assets except, fixed assets individually costing upto Rs. 5000 is being fully depreciated in the
year of purchase.
Intangible Assets are recognized as specified in the applicable Accounting Standard and are amortized in 36 Months.
The estimated useful life, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect
of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
2.7 Intangible assets
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life. The estimated useful life and amortisation method
are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:
Assets Estimated useful life
Computer software 36 months
An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or
losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset, is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.
Transition to Ind AS
On transition to Ind AS, the Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of all of intangible assets recognised as at
1 April 2016 measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as the deemed cost of intangible assets.
2.8 Inventory Valuation
a) Raw materials and stores & spares are valued at average cost.
64

b) Work-in-Progress is valued at estimated cost.
c) Finished stocks are valued at “Lower of Cost and net Realisable Value” as prescribed by Indian Accounting Standard-2
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India except that the by product of Molasses and Bagasse has been valued
at net realisable value because their cost price is not ascertainable.
2.9 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
a) Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the
obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation
at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When the effect
of the time value of money is material, provision is measured at the present value of cash flows estimated to settle the present
obligation. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third
party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the
receivable can be measured reliably.
b) A contingent liability is not recognised in the financial statements, however, is disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow
of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. It becomes probable that an outflow of future economic benefits will be
required for an item dealt with as a contingent liability, a provision is recognised in the standalone financial statements of the
period (except in the extremely rare circumstances where no reliable estimate can be made).
c) A contingent liability is not recognised in the financial statements, however, is disclosed, where an inflow of economic benefits
is probable. When the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the asset is no longer a contingent asset, and is recognised
as an asset.
d) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
2.10 Employee Benefits
a) Short term employee benefits:
All employee benefits falling due wholly with in twelve months of rendering the services are classified as short term employee
benefits, which include benefits like salaries, wages, short term compensated absences and performance incentives and are
recognized as expenditure at the undiscounted value in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
b) Post- employment benefits :
Contributions to defined contribution schemes such as Provident Fund, Pension Fund etc. are recognized as expenses in the
period in which the employee renders the related service in respect of certain employees, Provident Fund contributions are

the statutory rate of interest declared by the Central Government under the Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous
Provisions Act, 1952 and shortfall, if any, shall be made good by the Company.

Superannuation Fund Trust, which is recognised as expenses in the period in which employee renders the related service, and
there are no other obligations with regard to superannuation fund of key managerial personnel.
e) Defined benefit plans - gratuity: Gratuity liability is covered under the gratuity-cum-insurance policy of Life Insurance
Corporation of India (LIC). The present value of the obligation is determined based on an actuarial valuation, using the
projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses in respect of post- employment and other long-term benefits are
charged to the Other Comprehensive Income. The amount funded by the trust administered by the Company under the
aforesaid Policy, is reduced from the gross obligation under the defined benefit plan, to recognise the obligation on a net
basis.
2.11 Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over
the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected
life of the financial liability to the gross carrying amount of a financial liability.

plan debt investments.
Longevity risk

during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

Note No. 52. Financial Risk Management
The Company’s activities expose it to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note explains the sources of risks which the entity is
exposed to and how it mitigates that risk.
A. Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. Company is exposed to credit
risk from trade receivables and deposits with banks. To manage this, Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers,
taking into account factors such as credit track record in the market and past dealings with the Company for extension of credit to customers.
Company monitors the payment track record of the customers. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. Concentrations
of credit risk are limited as a result of the Company’s large and diverse customer base. Company has also taken advances and security
deposits from its customers/agents, which mitigate the credit risk to an extent. The ageing of trade receivable is given below:
:
Up to 12 months More than 12 months Total Amount (Rs.in Lakhs)

Company considers factors such as track record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with
which term deposits are maintained. Term deposits are maintained with banks with which Company has also availed borrowings.

B Liquidity risk :
Liquidity risk is the risk that a company may encounter difficulties in meeting its obligations associated with financial liabilities that are
settled by delivering cash or other financial assets. The Group monitors rolling forecasts of its liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient
cash to meet operational needs. The table below provides undiscounted cash flows towards financial liabilities into relevant maturity based
on the remaining period at the balance sheet to the contractual maturity date.

C. Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities

Financial instruments measured at fair value can be divided into three levels for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial
instruments by valuation technique.
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within 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.
Following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values:-
a. Fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade and other short-term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities and short-
term borrowings carried at amortised cost is not materially different from it’s carrying cost largely due to short-term maturities of these
financial assets and liabilities.
b. Financial instruments with fixed and variable interest rate fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are evaluated by Company
based on parameters such as interest rate, credit rating or assessed credit worthiness.
c. Non-listed shares and other securities fall within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Valuation is based on the net asset method.
d. Fair value of the borrowing items fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and is calculated on the basis of discounted future cash
flows.
e. Ind AS 101 allow Company to fair value Property, Plant and Equipment on transition. Company has valued property,plant and equipment
as deemed cost.
і) Set out below is a comparison by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments that are
recognised in the financial statements:

Contd.....
87
i) Interest rate risk

Fluctuation in fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument because of changes in market interest rates gives rise to interest rate
risk. The Company’s borrowings are linked to base rates of the banks. With all other variables held constant, the following table demonstrates
the impact of change in interest rate on borrowing cost on floating rate portion of loans.
(Rs.in Lakhs)
Particulars As at As at
31st, March 2023 31st, March 2022
Total debt as at the end of the year 9188.18 14519.87
Average annual utilisation of debts at floating rate of interest (%) 97% 97%
Average availment of borrowings at floating rate of interest 8912.53 7708.67
Impact of 1% interest rate variation 89.13 77.09
ii) Inventory price risk
The Company is exposed to the movement in price of principal finished product i.e. sugar. Prices of the sugar cane is fixed by government.
Generally, sugar production is carried out during sugar cane harvesting period from November to April. Sugar is sold throughout the year
which exposes the sugar inventory to the movement in the price. Company monitors the sugar prices on daily basis and formulates the
sales strategy to achieve maximum realisation. The sensitivity analysis of the change in sugar price on the inventory as at year end, other
factors remaining constant in given in table below:
(Rs.in Lakhs)
Particulars As at As at
31st, March 2023 31st, March 2022
Sugar inventory held (Qtl. In Lakhs) 1.97 3.89
Impact of sugar price variation by Rs. 100/Qtl. 196.71 389.00
iii) Regulatory risk
Sugar industry is regulated both by central government as well as state government. Central and State governments polices and regulations
affects the Sugar industry and the Company’s operations and profitability. Distillery business is also dependent on the Government policy.
However, with the removal of major regulatory control on sugar sales by the Central Government, the regulatory risks are moderated by
not eliminated. .
iv) Commodity price risk
Sugar prices are market driven and sugar industry being cyclical in nature, realizations get adversely affected during downturn Higher
cane price or higher production than the demand ultimately affect profitability. The Company has mitigated this risk by well integrated
business model by diversifying into co-generation and distillation, thereby utilizing the by products.
NOTE NO. 55.
“The net worth of the company has since been eroded on account of operational losses, incurred by the company upto the
F.Y. 2014-15, which was basically on account of low recovery of sugar from sugarcane. Whereas on account of improvement
in the sugar manufacturing unit, during the season 2015-16, the recovery has substantially improved with the result that the
company has earned profit during the year 2016-17. The company has also reported profit during the year ending on 31.03.2020
Rs.384.91 Lakhs as compare to loss Rs. 1410.62 Lakhs during the year ending on 31.03.2021. The company is continuously
striving for improvement in the operational efficiencies in other parameters. The company continue to operate at optimum levels
and expects improvement in the operational efficiency in form of improvement in sugar recovery, increase of production of
alcohol through using B heavy molasses, reduction of over heads, finance and other cost. The Government has taken different
measures to improve the financial health of Sugar industry to fix obligation for export of sugar (MIEQ-minimum indicative
export quota) to reduce sugar availability, fixation of minimum support price(MSP) for sugar. Also, the Government has put
a great thrust on promoting ethanol production and has planned to increase the ethanol blending in petrol upto 20 % by 2025.
Ethanol will turn around the economic dynamics of the sugar industry positively. All these measures are expected to turnaround
the operations of sugar industry on sustainable basis. As such the company will remain as a going concern and is likely to pay
it’s liabilities including cane dues from expected generation of cash flow. However the accumulated losses of the company
as at 31.03.2023 were Rs.16084.21 Lakhs (excluding revaluation reserve) as against the paid up capital of Rs. 525.00 Lakhs.

Certain previous year figures have been rearranged to make them comparable with current figures.
