BS LIMITED
Annual Report 2014-154
CHAIRMAN’S COMMUNIQUÉ
Dear Shareholders, It has been another stellar year for us at BS Limited and I am happy to present to you, your Company’s performance highlights for the financial year 2014-15.
The year ushered in significant optimism after the new Government was formed at the Centre. Among the Government’s several proactive initiatives, Make in India is the most significant, which aims to revive India’s industrial and manufacturing sector and subsequently, the country’s economy.
Currently a service sector driven economy, India is gradually tipping its balance towards the manufacturing sector. Consequently, the manufacturing sector is expected to reach US$ 1 trillion in valuations by 2025. The sector’s contribution to GDP, presently at 16%, is also anticipated to rise to 25-30%.
In this backdrop, BS Limited firmly believes that electricity is the biggest catalyst for economic growth and
improving quality of life. Over the past year, we embarked upon an integrated programme to ensure optimal leveraging of opportunities to create value and contribute towards nation-building.
We successfully commissioned the 765 kV Raichur-Sholapur project, which was instrumental in the success of the country’s One Nation–One Grid–One Frequency mission and are partners in accomplishing one of the largest operating synchronous grids in the world. The project would generate Annuity Revenue for the Company over a period of 35 years. BS Limited is also executing the prestigious 1200 kV Ultra-High Voltage transmission line from Wardha to Aurangabad.
During the year, we invested time and resources in development of an ‘Emergency Restoration System’ for immediate restoration of collapsed transmission lines due to natural calamities. Development efforts are underway for a mobile substation too, to complement our ERT sector efforts.
We forayed into the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and set up a subsidiary named BS Limited FZE at the Dubai Airport Free Zone in United Arab Emirates. The subsidiary has generated United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED) 71.48 million revenues in its first year of operation.
Keeping pace with consistent financial performance, your Company has reported healthy growth in 2014-15 with 15.26% increase in revenue over the last year to ` 2,682.3 Crores, recording a 5-year CAGR of 25.16%. Operating Profit came in at` 295.3 Crores, a 5-year CAGR of 18.99%.
We recently announced a major acquisition of operative assets from four companies which will benefit us by enhancing our tower manufacturing capacity and EPC execution capability. We are vertically and horizontally diversifying to benefit from economy of scale and are foraying into railway electrification. Indian Railways plans to add 25,000 km of new lines by 2020, which augurs well for us.
Going ahead, we are confident about achieving the pole position among the transmission line providers in the country. We see demand for T&D lines only going up as the power generated at the plants need quick evacuation and dispatch through transmission lines. We will continue participating in tenders and partnering the Government in nation-building.
I would like to thank our stakeholders for their contributions to the Company’s success. The Company’s consistent good performance continues to reflect the determination of my colleagues in taking operations to a new level. In the years to come, we wish to emerge as a frontrunner in the transmission line segment and return value to our stakeholders.
Best wishes,

OUR STRENGTHS
INTELLECTUAL CAPITALAn efficient taskforce plays a vital role in taking a Company forward. Our Company is backed by a well-balanced Board with a professional management team across all business segments, ensuring transparency and efficiency in decision making. Good hiring practices ensure proper talent acquisition and exploration.
LEAN ASSET MODELThe Company maintains a lean asset model – procuring only core and scarce equipment and renting non-core equipment machinery. Identifying the optimum blend of modern and traditional assets gives the Company cost advantages.
MATERIAL SECURITYThe vertically integrated business model provides raw-material security. Also, the Company creates pre-bid tie ups for key commodities for efficient procurement and lasting relationships with vendors.
FINANCIAL STABILITYThe Company has consistently showed strong performance, reporting stable margins over the years. Factors such as high Promoter Holding, low Debt-to-Equity and high Return on Equity and Return on Capital Employed enable the Company to gain stakeholder confidence.
UNMATCHED EXECUTION CAPABILITIESArmed with technical knowledge and execution experience in the power T&D segment, the Company has superior capabilities to execute complex and large projects, EPC and Turnkey, across different geographies. This includes successfully building and commissioning transmission lines in inhospitable terrains and climates. This ability gives the Company an edge over peers.
WIDE OFFERING AND ORDER BOOKThe Company has a large portfolio for transmission lines (technical specifications as well as capacity-wise) and project execution models, viz. EPC, Turnkey, BOOM and BOOT. This wide spectrum allows the Company to service wider client needs and hence build a healthier order book.
QUALITY CONSCIOUSNESS The Company prioritises Quality in execution and delivery. The Company is certified for Quality, Environment and Occupational Health & Safety. On the production end, BS Limited follows a strict no-compromise policy with quality of the products and has advanced machinery for quality testing and strict audits for quality assurance.

REALITY Despite being a US$ 2 trillion economy with strong power generation capability, India’s per capita power consumption is significantly low compared with other countries. In order to support the high growth aspirations, the country needs to upgrade its transmission and distribution capabilities at a faster rate than increasing generation capacities. The Government is in tune and is laying emphasis on T&D with significant investments planned over the coming years. This opens up huge prospect for power T&D players like us.
Meanwhile, Indian Railways plans to add 25,000 km of new lines by 2020. The Railway Budget 2015 announced an investment of ` 137 billion for modernisation and capacity building in next five years. This poses as another avenue for us with focus on route electrification. At BS Limited, we not just track opportunities, but have been preparing ourselves to capture this increasing potential.
STRATEGY Identifying this opportunity, we set out graduating to a higher league of T&D players. We recently announced a plan to acquire synergetic and operative assets from four companies on May 20, 2015, aimed at expediting growth through inorganic expansion.
This will enable us to become an end-to-end service provider in the power T&D sector - one of the largest integrated players in the country. Synergies thus acquired, will significantly add to bidding capability, provide sustainable operational and financial benefits and facilitate scaling up the value chain. Besides, the acquisition will support our expansion into railway electrification – another high growth-potential sector.
Thus, we are prepared to capture and harness every opportunity in the power T&D sector, with superior capacities and capabilities.

REALITY The Government announced that the Indian power sector has an investment potential of ` 15 trillion (US$ 237.35 billion) in the next 4-5 years. And, it has promised to tender out power transmission projects worth ` 1 trillion in a year. This opportunity can be best leveraged by making in India.
Factors like relaxed tax and duty framework, active framing of policies, simplified procedures for FDIs, institutions for providing technical education to the workforce in engineering and construction equipment sector– all make India the prospective global business hub.

STRATEGY We have realigned our outlook with that of the nation. We follow an integrated approach to diversification. Today, we are vertically and horizontally integrated, driving core competence.
We have in-house material processing centers – tower manufacturing and galvanizing units in Hyderabad, and a structural steel mill. This enables independent control over raw materials and execution timelines
by cutting possibilities of supply constraints. Subsequently, it supports horizontal expansion into new business segments across geographies. Our portfolio mix encompasses transmission and distribution, tower manufacturing, turnkey services, BOOM and BOOT projects in the power sector. Foraying into BOOM projects in 2010, we bagged our maiden project in association with two other industry players for establishing the 765 kV transmission system from Raichur to Sholapur, the link that completed establishment of the Single-Frequency Synchronous National Grid. Besides, we also entered into the trading business,

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
GLOBAL ECONOMY OVERVIEWGlobal economic growth in 2014 was a modest 3.4%, reflecting a pickup in advanced economies relative to the previous year. Emerging markets and developing economies witnessed a slowdown, however, they still accounted for three-fourths of global growth in the year.
During 2014, growth in the United States was stronger than expected. Consumption benefited from steady job creation and income growth, lower oil prices and improved consumer confidence. Japan reflected weak consumption and plummeting residential investment with near-zero growth. In the Euro area, activity was weaker than expected in mid-2014 but signs of pickup came through by the year end - consumption being supported by lower oil prices and higher net exports. Emerging economies like Brazil and Russia appear less dynamic due to commodity down-cycles. Hit by export slowdown, China has taken a back foot in global economy contribution. However, the drop in crude prices was an important and positive variable for oil-dependent nations.
Stepping into 2015 and 2016, global growth is projected to reach 3.5% and 3.8%, respectively (WEO update, January 2015). Growth in advance economies is expected to be stronger in 2015 than 2014, however, emerging markets led by China and some oil exporting nations may reflect subdued growth prospects as a result of structural reforms, political uncertainties and supply-side constraints, with weak external demand only adding fuel to the fire.
OutlookWorld output is projected to increase marginally to 3.5% in 2015 and then to rise further in 2016 to 3.8% (Refer table: Global Growth). High-income countries are likely to grow on the back of gradually recovering labour markets, subsiding fiscal consolidation and still-low financing costs. In 2016, growth in emerging market and developing economies is expected to pick up to 4.7%, largely on account of the projected improvement in economic conditions of distressed economies, including Russia and some economies in the Middle East and North Africa. Oil prices will play a significant role ahead.

Management Discussion and Analysis
INDIAN ECONOMY OVERVIEWThe Indian growth story has been going strong even as other emerging nations faced some headwinds in the year. The Indian economy grew 7.3% in the fiscal year ended March 2015, trumping the previous fiscal’s 6.9%. This is the country’s fastest annual growth since 2011. Simultaneously, the economy crossed the US$ 2 trillion-mark for the first time—Indian GDP is now US$ 2.1 trillion and has a 3.3% share in the global GDP.
India retained its sweet spot as far as investments are concerned and foreign fund inflows worth US$ 38.4 billion since April 2014 have stabilised the Indian Rupee, easing long-term interest rates in the country. Inflation declined by over 6 percentage points since late 2013, reaching 5.17% in March 2015, creating a relaxed path for softening credit rates. Current account deficit has plunged from a peak of 6.7% of GDP in Q3 FY2013 to an estimated 1% at the end of FY2015.
Investment-friendly policies of the new Government kept the Indian economy buoyant in 2014. Manufacturing activity roared ahead at 7.1% and services such as finance, insurance and real estate continued to perform strongly, growing 11.5%. However, below-average rain hurt crops and agricultural growth was a mere 0.2%.(Source: statisticstimes.com, indiabudget.nic.in)
OutlookThe Indian economy is projected to clock 8.1% growth in the current financial year, spurred by strong consumer spending amid low inflation, infrastructure projects going on stream and government’s reform measures. Investment is also expected to rebound, although unevenly, given the still low industrial capacity utilisation rate of about 70%. The new Government is a harbinger of hope for India Inc. and the policy initiatives taken by the Government will have a positive impact on real GDP growth, including structural reforms and some fiscal and monetary policy loosening.

INDIAN POWER SECTOR OVERVIEWPower remains one of the most crucial factors affecting the infrastructure sector. India is the third largest producer of power with production of 1,167 TWh, and the fourth
largest consumer of electricity in the world. Although power generation has grown more than 100-folds since independence, growth in demand on the back of accelerating economic activity nullifies the achievement.

Thermal resources make up for about 70% of the power generation mix in India, making the country largely dependent on coal. As of January 2014, total coal reserves stood at 301.5 billion tonnes; of which, 125.9 billion tonnes was proven reserves. India’s proven natural gas reserves measure about 1.4 trillion cubic metres.
Around 16% of the power generated in the nation is hydro-based. With a large swathe of water resources, India’s potential for hydropower is enormous. Currently, India has 40.8 GW of hydro power generating capacity.
Renewable Energy accounts for 12% of the total generation capacity. Projects such as the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (aims to generate 20,000 MW of solar power by 2022) are garnering much investor interest. The government has raised the solar power generation capacity addition target by five times to 100,000 MW by 2022 which will entail an investment of around ` 6 lakh Crores.
The remaining 2% of the power mix is derived from Nuclear Resources. Currently, India has 4.8 GW of net electricity generation capacity using nuclear fuel (across 20 reactors) and aims to increase it to 45 GW by 2020. Armed with one of the world’s largest reserves of Thorium, India has a huge potential in this space.

Power Scenario In IndiaFor FY2015, India’s peak deficit came in at 3.5%, much lower than its historic average and the 4.5% of FY2014. With improvement in financial health of the State Electricity Boards, demand is likely to pick up over the near-to-medium term. Also, the Government’s focus on the manufacturing sector through its flagship initiative ‘Make in India’ is likely to drive demand higher.
Despite India ranking among the top power producers in the world, per capita power consumption in the country stood at 1010 kilowatt-hour (kWh) in 2014-15, compared with 957 kWh in 2013-14, still much lower than the world average at ~2980 kWh. This is owing to inadequate last mile transmission infrastructure and inefficient transmission and distribution which causes blackouts.
The new Government is dedicated to provide affordable 24x7 Power for All — homes, industrial and commercial establishments—and adequate power for farms, by 2019. Along with generation, the Government is also laying emphasis on the T&D space to improve PLF (plant load factor) levels, and improve financial health of SEBs and reduce Transmission losses.

POWER TRANSMISSION IN INDIAIn line with the impetus in power generation, the power transmission sector in the country has seen robust capacity addition in 2014-15. Around 18,000 circuit kilometres (ckt. km) of lines were added at the 220 kV and above voltage levels in the year (as of February 2015) against 13,600 ckt. km addition during the same period in 2013-14. Progress in transmission capacity addition at higher voltage levels remains steady. More than 50% of transformer capacity addition and one-third of line length addition during 2014-15 have been at the 765 kV level. Work on development of 1,200 kV UHVAC and 800 kV HVDC lines have also made good progress.
Integration of Renewable Energy is another key focus area for transmission planners. With the government’s ambitious plans to install 100 GW of solar power capacity by 2022 and 10 GW of wind power every year, evacuation of this power is the need of the hour. Realising this, the central transmission utility (CTU) is developing nine High Capacity Green Transmission Corridors (HCPTCs). The CTU has also announced a Desert Power Plan for evacuating solar and wind power from the desert regions of India by 2050.
Further, 11 HCPTCs being implemented by Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) are making swift progress. Majority of these transmission lines and substation are expected to be commissioned in 2015-16. (Source: Indiainfrastructure.com)
One Nation – One GridThe Indian Power system is divided into five regional grids – Northern Grid, Southern Grid, Eastern, Western and North-Eastern Grids. With widening gap in electricity demand and supply between the regions, integration of the regional grids into one National Grid began with asynchronous HVDC back-to-back inter-regional links facilitating exchange of operational surpluses among the regions.
Commissioning of the 765kV S/c Raichur – Sholapur line completed India’s mission for ‘One Nation-One Grid’. A nationwide synchronous power grid has been established with inter-regional power transfer capacity of about 46,450 MW (December 2014). This capacity is envisaged to be augmented to about 72,250 MW by the end of the 12th Five Year Plan. Synchronisation of the regional grids will help in optimal utilization of natural resources by transfer of power from resource-centric regions to load-centric regions. Further, this shall pave way for establishment of a vibrant electricity market facilitating trading of power across regions. This vision opens up significant market opportunity for the power T&D industry.
Limitations In The Sector Government policies for the electricity sector have not fully resolved transmission and distribution problems or power quality issues. Despite increasing installed capacity over the years, there still remains a significant gap between demand and supply of electricity. Supplies to rural areas are interrupted in order to meet demand in cities and urban centres—a phenomenon set to worsen as urbanisation increases. Furthermore, level of power deficit varies across the states because of differences in the quality of governance and ineffective management of demand.
The transmission and distribution losses associated with India’s electricity system continue to be among the highest in the world. Almost a quarter of all power generated is lost through network inefficiencies, theft and inaccurate metering, with further losses occurring through wastage. These losses drive up the cost of electricity for all users. It is therefore essential to match investment in generation capacity with that in power transmission and distribution and even-out the 70:30 ratio that prevails. The investment required in the power transmission sector is about US$ 35 billion, out of which about US$ 19 billion is planned to come from PGCIL. The
BS LIMITED
Annual Report 2014-1542
remaining US$ 16 billion (~46% of the total investments) would have to be secured from private players. It has, therefore, become the need of the hour to ensure much more private participation in the sector.(Source: Load Generation Balance Reports, Central Electricity Authority, Ministry of Power, cea.nic.in, economictimes.indiatimes.com, ficci.com)
India now has an installed power capacity of 158,000 MW with 30,000 MW more in the pipeline. Another 1,00,000 MW would be added from solar power over the next five years, as per the government’s plans. However, the country lacks sufficient infrastructure to evacuate all this power.
Overall, India’s peak demand and supply are forecasted at 156,862 MW and 152,754 MW for FY2015 and FY2016, respectively. This translates to a shortage of 4,108 MW, or a deficit of 2.6%. (Source: Economic Times)
Reasons For Optimism1. Growing Demand: Expansion in industrial activity led by ‘Make in
India’ to boost demand for electricity Growing population and increasing penetration
and per-capita usage Power consumption is estimated to increase
from 853 TWh in 2013 to 1,915 TWh in 2022
2. Attractive Opportunities: Large-capacity additions (189GW) targeted in
the 12th and 13th Five-Year Plans Ambitious projects and increasing investments
across the value chain Diversification into renewable sources
increasing growth avenues
3. Higher Investments: Total FDI in the power sector touched US$
9.4 billion in April 2000 to October 2014, accounting for 4.0% of total FDI inflow in India
Major investments earmarked by public and private sector companies
Around US$ 163 million has been allocated for solar power projects in Budget 2014-15
4. Policy Support: Elimination of licensing for various segments;
removal of entry barriers Cost reduction and rationalisation of tariffs;
development of UMPP
Fuel supply agreement of power producers with Coal India
100% FDI allowed in the power sector boosting inflows into this sector
Investments In The SectorElectricity demand in India is poised to see 5% CAGR over 2012-2035 with a target of 681 GW capacity addition.
Shifting focus to power transmission, the government would soon be launching a 20-year plan for the sector to keep pace with growing generation and its poll promise of ‘24x7 Power for All’. The plan, titled ‘Perspective Transmission Plan for 20 Years’ is being circulated to all states and sector stakeholders for their feedback.
India will thus witness huge addition in T&D lines over 2014-35—2,77,000 km new additions and 1,67,000 km refurbishments in transmission lines and 30,97,000 km additions and 37,96,000 km refurbishments in distribution lines. The current status of additional transmission network is 37,140 ckt. km.
INDIAN RAILWAYS SECTOR OVERVIEWIndian Railways ranks as the fourth-largest network in the world after the United States, Russia and China, spanning a total distance of 115,000 km. As the second largest commercial or utility employer in the world employing about 1.6 million people, its network of 65,800 route kilometer is more than 1.5 times the circumference of the earth.
There are 154 New Lines, 42 Gauge Conversions, 166 Doubling and 54 Railway Electrification projects planned across the country with throw-forward of ` 285,652 Crores (US$ 45.26 billion). For Railway Electrification projects, the throw-forward as of February 2015 has been estimated at ` 10,686 Crores. Foreign direct investment (FDI) into railway related-components from April 2000 to February 2015 was US$ 634.27 million.(Source: CIA World Factbook, Indiatoday, www.indianrailways.gov.in)
OutlookThe already massive network of the Indian Railways is growing at a healthy rate on the back of the rise in population and a growing economy that offers immense potential. In the next five years, the Indian railway network will be the third largest, accounting for 10% of the global market, with Metro Rail expected to be 70% of the railway market in India. By 2020, Indian Railway plans to achieve speed of 160-200 km/h from the current of 110-130 km/h. All these factors narrow down

Management Discussion and Analysis
to the fact that the railways will see a massive shift from diesel-run trains to electric trains which would require significant investments and project executions in railway electrification.
Investments In The SectorThe numerous announcements in the Railway Budget 2014-15 and 2015-16 laid the path for railway network progress in the country. High impetus has been given by the government to boost railways and to bring newer regions under its coverage. In 2015-16, the government unveiled plans to invest a further US$137 billion in its rail network over the next five years.
Investment Proposals Under The Railway Budget 2014-15
Plan budget up 52% to ` 1.1 Lakh Crores for FY16 Investment worth US$137 billion for railways in the
next five years 77 projects worth ` 96,182 Crores allocated to
expand capacity Four dedicated freight corridors to be completed
this year Track capacity to be increased by 10% to 1.38 Lakh km
RAILWAY ELECTRIFICATIONRailway Electrification is rapidly gaining significance in the Indian context as the nation strives to improve facilities of the world’s third-largest railway network under a single management.
The government is now focusing on award of turnkey contracts and enhancing power of field units for award of contracts for Railway Electrification.
Modernization of the Railways is the theme of the day and the government’s focus is on two fundamental drivers - Safety and Growth - along with a five-pronged strategy:
Modernize core assets – they are key revenue generating assets
Explore new revenue models – to meet the funding needs for modernization and growth
Review projects – to ensure financial viability, social benefits and timely implementation
Focus on enablers – for a holistic and long-term approach to modernisation and execution
Information Technology – to improve operational efficiency
The government has announced that during 2015-16, railways will take up 6,608 km for electrification, a whopping increase of 1,330% over the previous year.
Upon electrification of railway routes, Indian railways is likely to save about half of the running cost vis-à-vis diesel run locomotives; the reason making electrification a valuable proposition. Simultaneously, there will be a huge market for the power T&D players in the nation as the Railways is expecting private companies as well as its own PSUs to invest in and execute the electrification projects.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND MITIGATIONFollowing are certain risks perceived by the Company that may affect its business and how the Company prepares to hedge them:
1. Operational Risk The Company’s operations can be adversely
affected due to time and cost overrun. No Company is insulated from vagaries of time. BS
Limited has an integrated operations model and a portfolio mix of Tower Manufacturing and EPC in Power T&D. Going ahead, the Company is also horizontally expanding into Railway Electrification. This provides the Company the required technical expertise, predictable supply chains and so on to reduce business risks and maintain healthy order books, build qualifications, spread client base, and enhance profitability.
2. Raw Material Risk Price bargaining by suppliers could lead to raw
material procurement risks for the company increasing input cost leading to lower margins.
With the recent value-chain expansion, the Company is one of the largest integrated service
BS LIMITED
Annual Report 2014-1546
providers in the Power T&D space in India. The enhanced scale, capability and expertise give it superior pricing power for procurement. It also enables effective cost control and deliver quality in the shortest timeframe and at competitive rates. As for raw materials, the Company enters into pre-bid tie-ups for key commodities to mitigate material scarcity or price pressures.
3. Competition Risk Competition in the segment from rising number
of market players may lead to difficulties to bag orders thus hampering operational stability.
The Company’s focus is on operational competence, modern technology, skilled workforce and timely execution of projects for customer satisfaction and repeat orders. As an ISO certified Company, BS Limited delivers quality products and services. Also, the significantly higher capacity post expansion and net worth makes the Company eligible to bid for a higher league of contracts.
4. Demand Risk Fall in demand will affect scale of operations and
hence the Company’s sustainability quotient. While the Company’s tower business follows a
need-based procurement model, power is a growth sector and also the focus of the government. As per the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), the country will need nearly 90,000 ckt. km of high voltage transmission lines and about 154,000 MVA installations of new substations ahead to match demand. There is ample opportunity abroad too, especially in the MENA region that the company has recently forayed into.
5. Diversification Risk Over-dependence on a particular business vertical
may expose the Company to risks of sectoral downturn.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSThe Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘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 and Cash Flows of the Company in accordance with the Accounting Principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. This responsibility includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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; Design, Implementation and Maintenance of adequate Internal Financial Controls, that are operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the Accounting Records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITYOur responsibility is to express an opinion on these Standalone Financial Statements based on our audit.
We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the Accounting and Auditing Standards and matters which are required to be included in the Audit Report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Financial Statements. The procedures selected depend on the Auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the Auditor considers Internal Financial Control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the Financial Statements, that give a true and fair view, in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate Internal Financial Controls System over Financial Reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of Accounting Policies used and the reasonableness of the Accounting Estimates made by the Company’s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Financial Statements.

Cash Flow Statement | Significant Accounting Policies
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES1. ACCOUNTING CONVENTIONS These Financial Statements are prepared in
accordance with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis. GAAP comprises mandatory Accounting Standards as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’) read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the provisions of the Act (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accounting Policies have been consistently applied except where a newly-issued Accounting Standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing Accounting Standard requires a change in the Accounting Policy hitherto in use
2. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of Financial Statements requires the
Management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of Assets and Liabilities and Disclosures relation to the Contingent Liabilities as at the date of the Financial Statements and reported amounts of income and expense during the year. Examples of such estimates include provisions for Doubtful Receivables, Employee Benefits and Provision for Income Taxes. Future Results could differ due to changes in the estimates and the difference between the actual results and the estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialize.
3. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues / Incomes and Costs / Expenditure are
generally accounted on accrual basis as they are earned or incurred.
Sale of Goods is recognized net of discounts and rebates on transfer of significant risks and rewards of ownership which is generally on the dispatch of goods.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESpractice of depreciating at the rates prescribed in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act 1956.

Depreciation on additions/ deletions to Fixed Assets is provided on a pro-rata basis from/ upto the date the Asset is put to use/ discarded.
8. IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS The Carrying Values of Assets/ Cash Generating
Units at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such Assets is estimated and impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the Future Cash Flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased such reversal of impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except in the case of Revalued Assets and the recoverable amount is reassessed and the Assets is reflected at the recoverable amount.
9. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued as under.
i) Raw Materials, Stores and Spares - at cost. ii) Finished Goods and Work-in-progress - at cost
or Net Realizable Value whichever is lower. Cost include cost of Direct Material, Labor, Factory Overhead including Excise Duty.
iii) Trading Goods - at cost or Net Realizable Value whichever is lower.
iv) Scrap - at Net Realizable Value.
10. INVESTMENTS Investments which are readily realisable and intended

Current Investments are carried in the Financial Statements at lower of cost and fair value determined on an Individual Investment Basis. Long-Term Investments are carried at cost. However, provision for diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary in the value of Investments.
On disposal of an Investment, the difference between its carrying amount and net disposal proceeds is charged or credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
11. TAXES ON INCOME Current Tax is the amount of tax payable on the
taxable income for the year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the Tax Laws, which gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an Asset if there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal Income Tax. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as an Asset in the Balance Sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with it will flow to the Company.
Deferred Tax is recognised on timing differences, being the differences between the taxable income and the accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. Deferred Tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred Tax Liabilities are recognised for all timing differences. Deferred Tax Assets are recognised for timing differences of items other than Unabsorbed Depreciation and Carry Forward Losses only to the extent that reasonable certainty exists that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which these can be realised. However, if there are Unabsorbed Depreciation and Carry Forward of Losses, Deferred Tax Assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty that there will be sufficient future taxable income available to realise the Assets. Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities are offset if such

12. CONTINGENCIES A Contingent Liability is a possible obligation that
arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognised because it is probable that an outflow of resources will not be required to settle the obligation. However if the possibility of outflow of resources, arising out of present obligation, is remote, it is not even disclosed as Contingent Liability. A Contingent Liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a Contingent Liability but discloses its existence in the notes to Financial Statements. Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the Financial Statements. Loss contingencies arising from claims, litigation, assessments, fines, penalties, etc., are provided for when it is probable that a liability may be incurred and the amount can be reliably estimated.
13. RETIREMENT BENEFITS Liability in respect of retirement benefits is provided
and charged to the Profit & Loss Account as follows:
Gratuity – Liability in respect of Gratuity to employees is provided on basis of an actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method made at the end of each Financial Year.

net profit or loss for the period attributable to Equity Shareholders by the Weighted Average number of Equity Shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating Diluted Earnings per Share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to Equity Shareholders and the Weighted Average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential Equity Shares.
15. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS Transactions denominated in foreign currencies
are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.
Foreign Currency Monetary Items (Assets and Liabilities) are restated using the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses, if any, at the year-end in respect of Monetary Assets and Monetary Liabilities are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
16. LEASE Leases in which significant portion of the risks and
rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as Operating Leases. Payments made under Operating Leases are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a Straight- Line basis over the period of the lease or other systematic basis more representative of the time pattern of the users benefits
17. CASH FLOW STATEMENTS The Companies Act, 2013 does not lay down any
format for preparation of Cash Flow Statement; Companies will need to follow AS 3 in this regard. However, the Listing Agreement requires the Indirect Method for preparing Cash Flow Statements. Hence, Cash Flow Statement has been prepared by following the Indirect Method and in accordance with the provisions of AS 3.

into segments based on the basis of the revenue from sales to External Customers and from transactions with other segments exceeds 10% of Total Revenues (external and internal) of all segments.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES1. ACCOUNTING CONVENTIONS These Financial Statements are prepared in
accordance with Indian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under the historical cost convention on the accrual basis. GAAP comprises mandatory Accounting Standards as prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘the Act’) read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the provisions of the Act (to the extent notified) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Accounting Policies have been consistently applied except where a newly-issued Accounting Standard is initially adopted or a revision to an existing Accounting Standard requires a change in the Accounting Policy hitherto in use.

2. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of Financial Statements requires the
management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of Assets and Liabilities and disclosures relation to the Contingent Liabilities as at the date of the Financial Statements and reported amounts of income and expense during the year. Examples of such estimates include provisions for doubtful receivables, employee benefits and provision for income taxes. Future results could differ due to changes in the estimates and the difference between the actual results and the estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialize.

Interest income from deposits and others is recognized on an accrual basis.
Profit/Loss on sale of Investments is recognized on the date of its sale and is computed as excess of sale proceeds over its carry amount as at the date of sale.
5. FIXED ASSETS Fixed Assets are stated at Cost of Acquisition as
reduced by Accumulated Depreciation. Apart from taxes (Excluding CENVAT) all costs including financial costs up to the date of commissioning and attributable to the Fixed Assets, Freight and other incidental expenses related to the acquisition and installation of the respective Fixed Assets are capitalized.
Capital Work-in-Progress is stated at the amount expended (includes taxes and duties) up to the date of Balance Sheet and includes advances paid to Suppliers and Contractors on account of Capital works.
6. PRE–OPERATIVE EXPENSES Expenditure during the construction period
(including Financing Cost relating to Borrowed Funds for Construction or Acquisition of Fixed assets) incurred on project during implementation are treated as pre-operative expenses, pending allocation to the Assets, and are included under “Capital Work-in-Progress”.
7. BORROWING COSTS Borrowing Costs that are attributable to the
Acquisition, Construction or Production of Qualifying Assets, pertaining to the period from commencement of activities relating to Construction
/ Development of the Qualifying Asset upto the date of Capitalization of such Asset, are capitalized as a part of the cost of such Assets. Any income earned on the temporary deployment/ investment of those borrowings is deducted from the borrowing costs so incurred. A Qualifying Asset is one that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other Borrowing Costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.
8. DEPRECIATION Depreciation on Fixed Assets is provided on the
Written Down Method over the useful life of Assets.
Effective April 01, 2014, the Company depreciates its Fixed Assets over the useful life in the manner prescribed in Schedule II of the Act, as against earlier practice of depreciating at the rates prescribed in Schedule XIV of the Companies Act 1956.
Based on an Independent Technical Evaluation, the useful life of Plant and Machinery and Factory Building has been estimated as 28 years and 13 years, which is different from that prescribed in Schedule II of the Act.
Depreciation on additions/ deletions to Fixed Assets is provided on a pro-rata basis from/ upto the date the asset is put to use/ discarded.
BS Global Resources Private Limited and BS Limited FZE provide depreciation on Straight Line Basis based on useful lives as estimated by the management.

9. IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS The carrying values of Assets/Cash generating
units at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated
Significant Accounting Policies
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BS LIMITED
Annual Report 2014-15106
and impairment is recognized, if the carrying amount of these Assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased such reversal of impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except in the case of Revalued Assets and the recoverable amount is reassessed and the assets is reflected at the recoverable amount.
10. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued as under.
i) Raw Materials, Stores and Spares - at cost.
ii) Finished Goods and Work-in-Progress - at cost or Net Realizable Value whichever is lower. Cost include Cost of Direct Material, Labor, Factory Overhead including excise duty.
iii) Trading Goods - at cost or Net Realizable Value whichever is lower.
iv) Scrap - at Net Realizable Value.
11. INVESTMENTS Investments which are readily realizable and
intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such investments are made, are classified as Current Investments. All other Investments are classified as Long-Term Investments. On initial recognition, all investments are recognised at cost. The cost comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties.
Current Investments are carried in the Financial Statements at lower of cost and fair value determined on an individual investment basis. Long-Term Investments are carried at cost. However, provision for diminution in value is made to recognize a decline other than temporary in the value of Investments.
On disposal of an Investment, the difference between its carrying amount and net disposal
proceeds is charged or credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss
12. TAXES ON INCOME Current Tax is the amount of tax payable on the
taxable income for the year as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the Tax Laws, which gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to future income tax liability, is considered as an Asset if there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with it will flow to the Company.
Deferred Tax is recognised on timing differences, being the differences between the taxable income and the accounting income that originate in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods.
Deferred Tax is measured using the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date. Deferred Tax Liabilities are recognised for all timing differences. Deferred Tax Assets are recognised for timing differences of items other than Unabsorbed Depreciation and Carry Forward Losses only to the extent that reasonable certainty exists that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which these can be realized. However, if there are Unabsorbed Depreciation and Carry Forward of Losses, Deferred Tax Assets are recognised only if there is virtual certainty that there will be sufficient future taxable income available to realize the assets. Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities are offset if such items relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing tax laws and the Company has a legally enforceable right for such set off. Deferred Tax Assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date for their reliability.
13. CONTINGENCIES A Contingent Liability is a possible obligation that
arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence

of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognised because it is probable that an outflow of resources will not be required to settle the obligation. However if the possibility of outflow of resources, arising out of present obligation, is remote, it is not even disclosed as Contingent Liability. A Contingent Liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a Contingent Liability but discloses its existence in the notes to Financial Statements. Contingent Assets are neither recognized nor disclosed in the Financial Statements. Loss contingencies arising from claims, litigation, assessments, fines, penalties, etc., are provided for when it is probable that a Liability may be incurred and the amount can be reliably estimated.
14. RETIREMENT BENEFITS Liability in respect of Retirement Benefits is provided
and charged to the Profit & Loss Account as follows:
Gratuity – Liability in respect of Gratuity to employees is provided on basis of an actuarial valuation on projected unit credit method made at the end of each Financial Year.
Leave Encashment – Liability in respect of Leave Encashment is provided on the basis of Actuarial Valuation. The Actuarial Valuation is done as per the projected unit credit method.
Provident Fund – Provident Fund is administered through the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner and Company’s contribution is remitted accordingly.
15. EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) Basic Earnings Per Share are calculated by dividing
the net profit or loss for the period attributable to Equity Shareholders by the Weighted Average number of Equity Shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted Earnings Per Share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to Equity Shareholders and the Weighted Average
number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential Equity Shares.
16. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS: Transactions denominated in Foreign Currencies
are recorded in the reporting currency, by applying to the Foreign Currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the Foreign Currency at the date of the transaction.
Foreign Currency monetary items (Assets and Liabilities) are restated using the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items, which are measured in terms of historical cost denominated in foreign currency, are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses, if any, at the year-end in respect of Monetary Assets and Monetary Liabilities are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
17. LEASE Leases in which significant portion of the risks and
rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight- line basis over the period of the lease or other systematic basis more representative of the time pattern of the users benefits.
18. CASH FLOW STATEMENTS The Companies Act, 2013 does not lay down any
format for preparation of Cash Flow Statement; Companies will need to follow AS 3 in this regard. However, the Listing Agreement requires the indirect method for preparing Cash Flow Statements. Hence, Cash Flow Statement has been prepared by following the Indirect Method and in accordance with the provisions of AS 3.
19. SEGMENT REPORTING The Business of the Company has been classified
into segments based on the basis of the revenue from sales to external customers and from transactions with other segments exceeds 10% of total revenues (external and internal) of all segments.
