SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT :
The Scheme of arrangement (“the Scheme”) between Balkrishna Industries Limited (BIL), Balkrishna Paper Mills Limited (BPML) and
Nirvikara Paper Mill Limited (NPML) under the provisions of section 391 to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956 was approved by the Hon’ble
High Court of Bombay vide Order dated 19th December 2014. Pursuant to the Scheme (i) BPML amalgamated with the Company with
effect from the Appointed Date, i.e., 1st April 2013 and (ii) the Paper Division undertaking of the Company along with investment in
Balkrishna Synthetics Limited demerged in to Nirvikara Paper Mill Limited (NPML) with effect from the Effective Date, i.e., 10th February
2015. In accordance with the Scheme, an aggregate of 1,07,39,844 equity shares of Rs. 10 each of NPML have been issued to the equity
shareholders of the Company in the ratio of 1 equity share of NPML for every 9 equity shares held in the Company and the shares of
NPML held by the Company have been cancelled. Accordingly, Balkrishna Synthetics Limited and NPML have ceased to be subsidiaries
of the Company.
OUTLOOK FOR THE CURRENT YEAR 2015-2016:
The Company’s earnings are mainly generated through exports to various countries across the globe. Due to recessionary trends
prevailing across the globe, the business environment is tough and challenging. However, your company will continue to make sustained
efforts towards growth.
The long-term prospects of the company are definitely positive and the company continues to expand its product range by widening its
products offerings and venturing in to new geographies.
OPPORTUNITY & THREATS:
OPPORTUNITIES:
Your company operates into a segment predominantly known as “large varieties -low volume segment”, which is not only capital
intensive but also labour intensive. Your Company is fully geared up to take advantage of the peculiarities of the said segment and has
developed a large base of SKUs to meet the diverse needs and applications.
Moreover, this segment is neither exposed to any technological obsolescence nor wild fluctuations in demand for its products.
The Company has incremental opportunity to develop “Earth Moving Tyres” (OTR) markets and take advantage of the shift from bias to
radial tires, which are growing up rapidly. In order to take advantage of this opportunity, the company has already set up an all-steel
OTR Radial tyre plant at its Chopanki location and proud to be first company in India to set up such plant. Your company is in the process
of expanding its base into its various sub-segments like agricultural, industrial, construction, mining, winter and solid tyres under both
technologies – bias as well as radials.
THREATS:
Like any other Company, your Company is also exposed to various threats like competition from small players, retention of employees,
labor unrest, increase in raw material prices and other input costs etc.
RISKS / CONCERNS AND RISK MITIGATION:
Fluctuation in Raw Material prices: The Company’s major raw material is Natural Rubber, which is an agricultural commodity and actively
traded on the commodities exchanges. Its prices fluctuate significantly and have witnessed significant volatility in the past. Recently
there has been a softening in the prices of natural rubber and other raw materials which are expected to continue for some more time
in the back drop of subdued business environment across the globe.
In order to minimize such risks, the Company not only enters into medium-term contracts but also adopts the policy to “Buy and Stock”
large quantities during the lean period.
Since most of the raw materials are imported, the company is exposed to foreign currency risk. However, it enjoys natural hedge as most
of its revenues are in foreign currency.
Labour Relations: Since Company’s manufacturing process is that of batch processing, it requires lot of skilled as well as un-skilled
workers. Maintaining a huge work force is a big challenge.
In order to mitigate the said risk, the Company follows good HR practices to promote the welfare, safety of its workmen and improve
the work environment. All workers are paid more than adequate remuneration for their work.
Retention of skilled manpower: Like other players in the industry, the Company is also exposed to this risk, more particularly when there
is shortage of skilled manpower in the industry.
The Company is able to manage the said risk by good HR practices and rewarding its employees handsomely.
Currency fluctuation: As stated earlier the company revenues are mainly generated through exports. The Company also imports lot of
its raw materials and capital equipment’s. Moreover, all its borrowings are in foreign currency and it is therefore exposed to risks due
to currency fluctuations.
The Company follows the system of hedging its receivables (net off payables) well in advance by entering into Forward Contracts,
thereby protecting itself from the fluctuations in currencies.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM AND THEIR ADEQUACY:
The Company has adequate system of internal controls to ensure that all the assets are safeguarded and are productive. Necessary
checks and balances are in place to ensure that transactions are adequately authorized and reported correctly. The Internal Auditors of
the Company conduct Audits of various departments to ensure that the necessary controls are in place. The Audit Committee of the
Board reviews these and the Company, when needed, takes corrective actions.

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 the 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the 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.
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.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial
statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 2015, and its profit and its
cash flows for the year ended on that date.

NOTES FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE NO.1

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with historical cost convention and on accrual basis.

Use of Estimates

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual and estimates are recognised in
the period in which the results are known/materialised.

Fixed Assets

a) Fixed Assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Cost comprises of purchase price and attributable expenses (including financing
charges) and is net of permissible credits/set offs.

b) Expenditure (including financing charges) incurred for fixed assets, the construction / installation/acquisition of which is not
completed, is included under the Capital Work-in-Progress and the same is related/classified to the respective fixed assets on the
completion.

Depreciation/Amortisation

b) Effective from 1st April 2014, Depreciation on fixed assets (other than leasehold land) has been provided based on useful life of
the assets in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013, on Straight Line Method except in respect of Plant and
Equipment where the useful life is considered differently based on an independent technical evaluation as 10 to 15 years.

c) Premium on Leasehold Land is amortised over the duration of the Lease.

Investments

Investments are valued at cost plus attributable expenses of acquisition and are classified as Long-Term Investments and Current
Investments (investments intended to be held for not more than one year). Long-Term Investments are stated at cost. However, where
there is a diminution, other than temporary, in the value of a long-term investment, necessary provision is made to recognise the decline.
Current Investments are stated at lower of cost and fair value, computed on individual investment basis.

Valuation of Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of the cost and net realisable value. Cost of inventories is computed on moving weighted average basis.
Cost comprises of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location
and condition.

Revenue Recognition

Sales are inclusive of Excise Duty but excluding Value Added Tax/Central Sales Tax and are net of Trade Discounts, Rebates and Incentives.

Export Benefits

Consumption of Raw Materials is arrived at after adjusting the difference between the cost of indigenous/duty paid imported raw
materials and international cost of raw materials entitled to be imported/imported under Duty Exemption Scheme of the Government of
India against direct/indirect exports made/to be made by the Company during the year. Export Incentives under Focus Product Scheme
and Focus Market Scheme under EXIM policy/ Foreign Trade Policy are accounted for in the year of export. Profit/Loss on sale of such
licenses is accounted in the year of sale.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are accounted at the exchange rates prevailing on the day of the transaction. Gains and losses arising
out of subsequent fluctuations are accounted on actual payment/realisation. Monetary items related to foreign currency transactions,
remaining unsettled at the end of the year are adjusted at the rates prevailing at the year end or are stated at the amounts likely to
be realised or required to be disbursed, except for those considered doubtful of recovery. The exchange fluctuation arising on account
of such adjustments are dealt in Profit and Loss Account. Non-monetary items are reported by using the exchange rate at the date of
transaction.

The Company enters into Forward Contracts to hedge its Foreign Currency Exposures. Premium/ Discount in respect of outstanding
forward contracts at the year end are amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract.

 Annual Report 2014-15

Employee Benefits:

A) Short-term employee benefits:

Short-term employee benefits consisting of wages, salaries, social security contributions, ex-gratia and accrued leave are recognised
in the year to which it relates.

B) Post employment benefits:

i) Benefits in the nature of contribution to provident fund, superannuation scheme, employee state insurance scheme etc.
provided by the company to the employees have been identified as defined contribution plans in terms of provisions of AS-15
on “Employee Benefits” where the obligation of the company is limited to a pre-agreed amount as fixed by the administrator
of those plans. Such contributions are recognised in the year to which they relate.

ii) Benefit in the nature of gratuity paid by company to the employees has been identified as defined benefit plan in terms of
provisions of AS-15 on “Employee Benefits”. The gratuity scheme in respect of the employees of the company is administered
through Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). Annual contributions as determined by LIC are charged to profit and loss
account. The liability of the company is also determined through actuarial valuation technique at balance sheet date and the
additional liability, if any, arising out of the difference between the actuarial valuation and the plan assets as at the balance
sheet date is provided for at the year end.

Research and Development

Revenue expenditure on Research and Development is charged to Profit and Loss Account as incurred. Capital expenditure on assets
acquired for Research and Development is added to Fixed Assets.

Government Grants

Special Capital Incentive received from the Government for setting up/expansion of an industrial undertaking in underdeveloped area of
the State, is credited to Capital Reserve (Capital Incentive Reserve). Government grants/subsidy related to specific fixed assets is reduced
from the cost of the asset concerned.

Borrowing Cost

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition/construction/installation of fixed assets are capitalised as part of the cost of the
assets up to the date the assets are put to use. Other borrowing costs are charged to Profit and Loss Account.

Taxation

a) Provision for current tax is made and retained in the accounts on the basis of estimated tax liability as per the applicable provisions
of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

b) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for timing differences between the accounting and taxable income, based on tax
rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date. Deferred tax assets, subject to the consideration
of prudence, are recognised only if there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available, against
which they can be realised. At each Balance Sheet date, the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed to reassure its
realisation.

Leases

Assets acquired on leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as
operating leases. Lease rentals are charged to the Profit and Loss Account on accrual basis. Assets leased out under operating lease are
capitalised, depreciation thereon is provided in the books and rental income is recognised on accrual basis over the lease term. Assets
leased out are stated at original cost and the depreciation thereon is provided in the books.

Impairment

The carrying amount of an asset is reviewed at each balance sheet date for any indication of impairment based on internal/external
factors. An impairment loss is recognised wherever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable
amount is the greater of the asset’s net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are
discounted to their present value at the weighted average cost of capital.

Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

A provision is made based on a reliable estimate when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit will be
required to settle an obligation. Contingent Liabilities, if material, are disclosed by way of notes to accounts. Contingent Assets are not
recognised or disclosed in the financial statements.

TO THE MEMBERS OF BALKRISHNA INDUSTRIES LIMITED
Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of BALKRISHNA INDUSTRIES LIMITED (hereinafter referred to as

financial position, consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows of the Group 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
the Companies(Accounts) Rules, 2014. The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group and
for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; the selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making

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

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement
of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal
financial control relevant to the Holding Company’s preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Holding Company’s Board of Directors,
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports

opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
