4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

4.1 Basis of measurement

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified by revaluationof freehold land referred to in note 4.4 and certain other modifications as required by approved accountingstandards referred to in the accounting policies given below.

4.2 Dividend Appropriation

Dividend is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which it is declared.

4.3 Taxation

Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income at the current rates of taxation or half percent ofturnover, whichever is higher.

Deferred income tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of all temporarydifferences arising between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and thecorresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised forall taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable thatfuture taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the period when the differences reversebased on the tax rates that have been enacted. Deferred tax is charged or credited to income except in thecase of items credited or charged to equity in which case it is included in equity.

4.4 Property, plant and equipment

a) Cost

Operating fixed assets except freehold land are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Freeholdland is stated at revalued amount. Capital work-in-progress and stores held for capital expenditure arestated at cost. Cost in relation to certain plant and machinery items include borrowing cost related tothe financing of major projects during construction phase.

b) Depreciation

Operating assets depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost overtheir estimated useful lives at the rates specified in note 12.

c) Repairs and maintenance

Maintenance and normal repairs, including minor alterations, are charged to income as and when incurred.Renewals and improvements are capitalised and the assets so replaced, if any, are retired.

4.5 Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example land, are not subject to amortisation or depreciation andare tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to depreciation / amortisation are reviewed forimpairment at each balance sheet date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that thecarrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset'scarrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Reversals of the impairment losses are restricted to theoriginal cost of the asset. An impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss is recognised in the profit and lossaccount.

4.6 Investments in associated and subsidiary companies

These investments are initially valued at cost. At subsequent reporting dates, the Company reviews the carryingamount of the investment to assess whether there is any indication that such investments have suffered animpairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated in order to determine theextent of the impairment loss, if any. Such impairment losses or reversal of impairment losses are recognisedin the profit and loss account. The profits and losses of subsidiary and associated companies are carried inthe financial statements of the subsidiary and associated company and are not dealt with for the purpose ofthe financial statements of the Company except to the extent of dividend declared by the subsidiary andassociated companies.

4.7 Stores, spares and loose tools

These are valued at moving average cost less allowance for obsolete items. Items in transit are stated atinvoice value plus other charges paid thereon.

4.8 Stock-in-trade

Stock-in-trade is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Crude oil in transit is valued at costcomprising invoice value. Cost in relation to crude oil is determined on the basis of annual average cost ofpurchases during the year on the principles of import parity and in relation to semi-finished and finished productsit represents the cost of crude oil and refining charges consisting of direct expenses and appropriate productionoverheads. Direct expenses are arrived at on the basis of average cost for the year per barrel of throughput.Production overheads, including depreciation, are allocated to throughput proportionately on the basis ofnameplate capacity.

Net realisable value in relation to finished product represents selling prices in the ordinary course of businessless costs necessarily to be incurred for its sale, as applicable, and in relation to crude oil represents replacementcost at the balance sheet date.

4.9 Foreign currency translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into rupees at the rates of exchange ruling on the date of thetransaction. All monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the year end are translatedat exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are dealt with through the profitand loss account.

4.10 Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company andthe revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is recognised as follows:

i) Revenue from sales is recognised on delivery of products ex-refinery to the customers with the exceptionthat Naphtha export sales are recognised on the basis of products shipped to customers.

ii) The Company is operating under the import parity pricing formula, as modified from time to time, wherebyit is charged the cost of crude on 'import parity' basis and is allowed product prices equivalent to the'import parity' price, calculated under prescribed parameters.

Effective July 1, 2007, the Government made certain modifications in the prescribed parameters effectivelyreducing the price of Kerosene oil, Light Diesel Oil (LDO) and JP-8 in 2007 and 2008. The Governmenthas further modified the refineries pricing formula in August, 2008 whereby the 10% duty included inpricing of HSD has been cut to 7.5% and the motor gasoline pricing has been unilaterally revised bylinking its price to Arab Gulf 95 RON prices and calculating the price of 87 RON motor gasoline on aunitary method basis. This revision will adversely affect the pricing of HSD and motor gasoline whichare Company's two major products.

Earlier in July, 2002, the Government had modified the pricing formula that was applicable to the Companyrestricting the distribution of net profits after tax (if any) from refinery operations to 50% of paid-upcapital as at July 1, 2002 and diverting the surplus profits, if any, to a special reserve to offset anyfuture loss or make investment for expansion or upgradation of Refinery. Further the Government hadabolished the minimum rate of return of 10% which continues to be contested by the Company as itrepresented to the Government that the already existing agreement for guaranteed return could bemodified only with the mutual consent of both the parties.

iii) Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive dividend is established.

iv) Other income is recognised on accrual basis.

4.11 Borrowing cost

Borrowing cost related to the financing of major projects during construction phase is capitalised. All otherborrowing costs are expensed as incurred.

4.12 Employee retirement benefits

The main features of the retirement benefit schemes operated by the Company for its employees are as follows:

i) Defined benefits plans

The Company operates a pension plan for its management staff and a gratuity plan for its non-managementstaff. Pension plan is invested through an approved trust fund while the gratuity plan is book reserveplan. Contributions are made in accordance with actuarial recommendations. Actuarial valuations areconducted through an independent actuary, annually using projected unit credit method. The obligationat the balance sheet date is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows.

Unrealised net gains and losses are amortised over the expected remaining service of current members.

ii) Defined contribution plans

The company operates an approved contributory provident fund for all employees. Equal monthlycontribution is made both by the Company and the employee to the fund at the rate of 10% of basicsalary.

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from thedate on which control is transferred to the Group and are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

The assets and liabilities of subsidiary company have been consolidated on a line by line basis and the carryingvalue of investments held by the parent company is eliminated against the subsidiary shareholders' equity inthe consolidated financial statements.

Material intra-company balances and transactions have been eliminated for consolidation purposes.

4.3 Dividend Appropriation

Dividend is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which it is declared.

4.4 Taxation

Provision for current taxation is based on taxable income at the current rates of taxation or half percent ofturnover, whichever is higher.

Deferred income tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of all temporarydifferences arising between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and thecorresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised forall taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable thatfuture taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are expected to apply to the period when the differences reversebased on the tax rates that have been enacted. Deferred tax is charged or credited to income except in thecase of items credited or charged to equity in which case it is included in equity.

4.5 Property, plant and equipment

c) Repairs and maintenance

Maintenance and normal repairs, including minor alterations, are charged to income as and when incurred.Renewals and improvements are capitalised and the assets so replaced, if any, are retired.

d) Gains and losses on deletion

Gains and losses on deletion of assets are included in income currently.

4.6 Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, for example land, are not subject to amortisation or depreciationand are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to depreciation / amortisation are reviewedfor impairment at each balance sheet date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that thecarrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset'scarrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Reversals of the impairment losses are restricted to theoriginal cost of the asset. An impairment loss or reversal of impairment loss is recognised in the profit andloss account.

4.7 Investments in associated companies

Investments in associated companies are accounted for using the equity method. Under this method investmentsare stated at cost plus the Company's equity in undistributed earnings and losses after acquisition, less anyimpairment in the value of individual investments.

4.8 Stores, spares and loose tools

These are valued at moving average cost less allowance for obsolete items. Items in transit are stated atinvoice value plus other charges paid thereon.

4.9 Stock-in-trade

Stock-in-trade is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Crude oil in transit is valued at costcomprising invoice value. Cost in relation to crude oil is determined on the basis of annual average cost ofpurchases during the year on the principles of import parity and in relation to semi-finished and finished productsit represents the cost of crude oil and refining charges consisting of direct expenses and appropriate productionoverheads. Direct expenses are arrived at on the basis of average cost for the year per barrel of throughput.Production overheads, including depreciation, are allocated to throughput proportionately on the basis ofnameplate capacity.

Net realisable value in relation to finished product represents selling prices in the ordinary course of businessless costs necessarily to be incurred for its sale, as applicable, and in relation to crude oil represents replacementcost at the balance sheet date.

4.10 Foreign currency translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into rupees at the rates of exchange ruling on the date ofthe transaction. All monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the year end aretranslated at exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences are dealt with throughthe profit and loss account.

4.11 Revenue recognition

i) Revenue from sales is recognised on delivery of products ex-refinery to the customers with the exceptionthat Naphtha export sales are recognised on the basis of products shipped to customers.

ii) The Company is operating under the import parity pricing formula, as modified from time to time, wherebyit is charged the cost of crude on 'import parity' basis and is allowed product prices equivalent to the'import parity' price, calculated under prescribed parameters.

Effective July 1, 2007, the Government made certain modifications in the prescribed parameters effectivelyreducing the price of Kerosene oil, Light Diesel Oil (LDO) and JP-8 in 2007 and 2008. The Governmenthas further modified the refineries pricing formula in August, 2008 whereby the 10% duty included inpricing of HSD has been cut to 7.5% and the motor gasoline pricing has been unilaterally revised bylinking its price to Arab Gulf 95 RON prices and calculating the price of 87 RON motor gasoline on aunitary method basis. This revision will adversely affect the pricing of HSD and motor gasoline whichare Company's two major products.

Earlier in July, 2002, the Government had modified the pricing formula that was applicable to the Companyrestricting the distribution of net profits after tax (if any) from refinery operations to 50% of paid-upcapital as at July 1, 2002 and diverting the surplus profits, if any, to a special reserve to offset any futureloss or make investment for expansion or upgradation of Refinery. Further the Government had abolishedthe minimum rate of return of 10% which continues to be contested by the Company as it representedto the Government that the already existing agreement for guaranteed return could be modified onlywith the mutual consent of both the parties.

iii) Income on investment in associated companies is recognised using the equity method. Under thismethod, the company's share of post-acquisition profit or loss of the associated company is recognisedin the profit and loss account, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserve is recognised inreserves. Dividend distribution by the associated companies is adjusted against the carrying amountof the investment.

iv) Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive dividend is established.

v) Other income is recognised on accrual basis.

4.12 Borrowing cost

Borrowing cost related to the financing of major projects during construction phase is capitalised. All otherborrowing costs are expensed as incurred.

4.13 Employee retirement benefits

The main features of the retirement benefit schemes operated by the Company for its employees are as follows:

i) Defined benefits plans

The Company operates a pension plan for its management staff and a gratuity plan for its non-managementstaff. Pension plan is invested through an approved trust fund while the gratuity plan is book reserveplan. Contributions are made in accordance with actuarial recommendations. Actuarial valuations areconducted through an independent actuary, annually using projected unit credit method. The obligationat the balance sheet date is measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows.

Unrealised net gains and losses are amortised over the expected remaining service of current members.

ii) Defined contribution plans

The company operates an approved contributory provident fund for all employees. Equal monthlycontribution is made both by the Company and the employee to the fund at the rate of 10% of basicsalary.
