Enhancing biodiversity
We, at Tata Power, are deeply committed to conserving natural
habitats and strengthening biodiversity.
We firmly believe that our operations are in harmony with the
environment in which we operate. We ensure that we undertake
initiatives across our operations not only to minimize our
impact on the surrounding biodiversity but also enhance it.

Our Emphasis on Value


Our aspirations have triggered a change in our approach from
conservation of species to entire ecosystems, providing a holistic
outcome to our efforts. We have a formal governance structure
and execution strategy in place which enables us to effectively
manage biodiversity across the organization.

(r) Commodity price risk or foreign exchange risk and hedging activities:
The Company has adopted the Commodity Price Risk Management Policy to manage its risks associated with commodity
imports (presently only Coal) from international markets. The objective of this policy is to ensure protection from risk
arising out of adverse and volatile movement in commodity prices by proper monitoring of the exposures and taking timely
actions to keep risks to acceptable levels. In terms of SEBI Circular No. SEBI/HO/CFD/CMD1/CIR/P/2018/0000000141 dated
15th November 2018, the required information is provided as under:
i) Risk management policy of the Company with respect to commodities including through hedging:
The Commodity Price Risk Management Policy is available on the Company’s website at
https://www.tatapower.com/pdf/aboutus/commodity.pdf.
ii) Exposure of the Company to commodity and commodity risks faced by the Company throughout the year:
• Total exposure of the listed entity to commodities in ₹:
Total coal exposure of the Company in FY 2020-21 is approx. ₹ 1,191.53 crore.
• Exposure of the listed entity to various commodities:

Coal • Trombay Plant - ₹ 588.85 crore • Trombay Plant - 1.72 Million MT (imported)
Nil Nil Nil Nil Nil
• Jojobera Plant - ₹ 602.68 crore • Jojobera Plant - 1.54 Million MT (domestic)

• Commodity risks faced by the Company during the year and how they have been managed are given below:
The Company has its coal based power generation plants situated at Trombay, Mumbai and Jojobera, Jamshedpur
(Jharkhand). The Trombay Plant imports coal from Indonesia under long term index linked contract in accordance
with Indonesian price regulation, while Jojobera Plant uses domestic coal (Indigenous coal) which is governed by
notified price declared by Coal India Limited.

The Company, therefore, inherently faces commodity price risk from use of coal for its power generation facilities.
However, as both the aforesaid plants are regulated business and the cost of coal is pass-through, the Company
does not have any risk towards fluctuation of price of coal being sourced for these plants. Therefore, the price risk on
imported as well as domestic coal is not hedged.

To address short term price volatility and assure supply, the Company has entered into long term coal procurement
agreements. Further, to manage sourcing, the Company has a dedicated Fuel Procurement team with strong
understanding of coal markets. This team works closely with coal suppliers and the Company’s operations team to
plan and source its coal supplies through reliable and lowest cost supply chain.

The foreign exchange variation on the imported coal is allowed as a full cost pass-through in the tariff of the two
regulated businesses and is, therefore, not hedged.

1. Corporate Information:
The Tata Power Company Limited (the 'Company') is a public limited company domiciled and incorporated in India under
the Indian Companies Act, 1913. The registered office of the Company is located at Bombay House, 24, Homi Mody Street,
Mumbai 400001, India. The Company is listed on the BSE Limited (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited
(NSE). The principal business of the Company is generation, transmission and distribution of electricity.
The Company was amongst the pioneers in generation of electricity in India more than a century ago.
The Company has an installed generation capacity of 2,304 MW in India and a presence in all the segments of the power
sector viz. Generation (thermal, hydro, solar and wind), Transmission and Distribution.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:


2.1 Statement of compliance
The Standalone financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as
notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 read with section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013
(as amended from time to time).

2.2 Basis of preparation and presentation


The Standalone Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following assets and
liabilities which have been measured at fair value
- derivative financial instruments;
- certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (Refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments);
- employee benefit expenses (Refer Note 26 for accounting policy)
Historical cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire assets at
the time of their acquisition or the amount of proceeds received in exchange for the obligation, or at the amounts of cash
or cash equivalents expected to be paid to satisfy the liability in the normal course of business. 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.

3. Other Significant Accounting Policies


3.1 Foreign Currencies
The functional currency of the Company is Indian Rupee (₹).
Income and expenses in foreign currencies are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. Foreign
currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet
date and exchange gains and losses arising on settlement and restatement are recognised in the statement of profit
and loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not
retranslated. Exchange differences on monetary items are recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period in
which they arise except for exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings relating to assets under construction for
future productive use, which are included in the cost of those assets when they are regarded as an adjustment to interest
costs on those foreign currency borrowings.

3.2 Current versus non-current classification


The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non-current classification. An asset is
treated as current when it is:
- expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle,
- held primarily for the purpose of trading,
- expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

242 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
3. Other Significant Accounting Policies (Contd.)
- cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months
after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.

Overview
A liability is current when:
- it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,
- it is held primarily for the purpose of trading,
- it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting
period.

Our Emphasis on Value


The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash
equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
3.3 Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of

Our Value-creation Paradigm


the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial
assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition
of financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in the
statement of profit and loss.
3.4 Financial Assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way
purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established
by regulation or convention in the market place. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety
at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
3.5 Financial assets at amortised cost

Statutory Reports
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method if these financial
assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding.
3.5.1 Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business
model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual
terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the
principal amount outstanding.
Financial Statements

On initial recognition, the Company makes an irrevocable election on an instrument-by-instrument basis to present the
subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments, other
than equity investment which are held for trading. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses
arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the 'Equity Instruments
through Other Comprehensive Income'. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the
investments.

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements

3. Other Significant Accounting Policies (Contd.)


3.5.2 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Investments in equity instruments are classified as at FVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects on initial recognition
to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income for investments in equity instruments which
are not held for trading. Other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at
amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.

3.5.3 Investment in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates


Investment in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates are measured at cost less impairment as per Ind AS 27
- 'Separate Financial Statements'.
Impairment of investments:
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments carried at cost annually, or more frequently when there is indication
for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is recorded in the statement
of profit and loss.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the Investment is increased to the revised estimate
of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the cost of the Investment. A reversal of
an impairment loss is recognised immediately in statement of profit or loss.

3.5.4 Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily
derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when:
- the right to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
- the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the
received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the
Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred
nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through
arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither
transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the
Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Company’s continuing involvement. In that case,
the Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a
basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
3.5.5 Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired.
Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company recognises lifetime
expected losses for all contract assets and / or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all
other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses or
at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition.
3.6 Financial liabilities and equity instruments
3.6.1 Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by a Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with
the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
3.6.2 Equity Instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its
liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
3.6.3 Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or FVTPL. Gains and
losses are recognised in statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the Effective
Interest Rate (EIR) amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on

244 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
3. Other Significant Accounting Policies (Contd.)
acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the
statement of profit and loss.

Overview
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities
designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if these are incurred for
the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses
arising on remeasurement recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
3.6.4 Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When
an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms
of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the

Our Emphasis on Value


original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the
statement of profit and loss.
3.6.5 Financial guarantee contracts
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse
the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms
of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction
costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of
the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 - 'Financial Instruments' and the
amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


3.7 Derivative financial instruments
The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks,
including foreign exchange forward contracts. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative
contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The
resulting gain or loss is recognised in statement of profit and loss immediately.
3.8 Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities
The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no
reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are
debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes
to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Company’s senior management determines change in the business
model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company’s operations. Such changes are evident

Statutory Reports
to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Company either begins or ceases to perform an activity
that is significant to its operations. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from
the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model.
The Company does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.
3.9 Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently
enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the
assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
3.10 Dividend distribution to equity shareholders of the Company
Financial Statements

The Company recognises a liability to make dividend distributions to its equity holders when the distribution is authorised
and the distribution is no longer at its discretion. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements


In the application of the Company's accounting policies, management of the Company is required to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered
to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 245


Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements (Contd.)


The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Detailed information about each of these
estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each
affected line item in the Standalone Financial Statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
Estimations used for impairment of property, plant and equipments of certain cash generating units (CGU) - Note 5
Estimations used for fair value of unquoted securities and impairment of investments - Note 7
Estimation of defined benefit obligation - Note 26
Estimations used for determination of tax expenses and tax balances (including Minimum Alternate Tax credit) - Note 35
Estimates related to accrual of regulatory deferrals and revenue recognition - Note 19 and Note 30
Estimates and judgements related to the assessment of liquidity risk - Note 42.4.3
Judgement to estimate the amount of provision required or to determine required disclosure related to litigation and
claims against the Company - Note 38
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances.

5. Property, Plant and Equipments


Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipments is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost includes purchase price (net of trade discount and rebates) and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to
its working condition for its intended use and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with the Ind
AS 23. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any. When significant parts of plant
and equipments are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depreciates them separately based on their specific
useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and
equipments as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised
in the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
The accounting policy related to Right-of-Use Assets has been disclosed in Note 23.
Depreciation
Depreciation commences when an asset is ready for its intended use. Freehold land and assets held for sale are not
depreciated.
Regulated Assets:
Depreciation on Property, plant and equipments in respect of electricity business of the Company covered under Part B
of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013, has been provided on the straight line method at the rates specified in tariff
regulation notified by respective state electricity regulatory commission.
Non-Regulated Assets:
Depreciation is recognised on the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their
residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives, 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. The Company, based on technical assessment
made by technical expert and management estimate, depreciates certain items of building, plant and equipment over
estimated useful lives which are different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The
management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which
the assets are likely to be used.

246 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
5. Property, Plant and Equipments (Contd.)

Estimated useful lives of the Regulated and Non-Regulated assets are as follows:

Overview
Type of assets Useful lives
Hydraulic Works 40 years
Buildings-Plant 5 to 40 years
Buildings-Others 25 to 60 years
Coal Jetty 25 years
Railway Sidings, Roads, Crossings, etc. 25 to 40 years
Plant and Equipments (excluding Computers and Data Processing units) 5 to 40 years

Our Emphasis on Value


Plant and Equipments (Computers and Data Processing units) 3 years
Transmission Lines, Cable Network, etc. 25 to 40 years
Furniture and Fixtures 10 to 40 years
Office equipments 5 years
Motor Cars 5 years
Motor Lorries, Launches, Barges etc. 25 to 40 years
Helicopters 25 years

Our Value-creation Paradigm


Derecognition
An item of Property, plant and equipments 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 equipments is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of
the asset and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Impairment
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount.
An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and
its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows

Statutory Reports
that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets.
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is
written down to its recoverable amount.
In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining
fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified,
an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices
for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.The Company bases its impairment calculation on
detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which the
Financial Statements

individual assets are allocated.


Impairment losses of tangible and intangible assets are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements

6. Intangible Assets
Accounting Policy
Intangible Assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible
assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Internally generated Intangible Assets


Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure
is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.

Derecognition of Intangible Assets


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, are recognised in statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

Useful lives of Intangible Assets


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

Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:

Type of assets Useful lives

Copyrights, patents, other intellectual property rights, services and operating rights 5 years

Financial Statements

11. (a) The Company holds investments in Coastal Gujarat Power Ltd. (CGPL) (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
operating 4,000 MW Mundra power plant), Indonesian mining companies PT Kaltim Prima Coal (KPC) and PT Baramulti
Suksessarana TBK (BSSR) through intermediate holding companies (associates operating coal mines in Indonesia and
supplying coal to CGPL) and Trust Energy Resources Pte. Ltd. (TERPL) (shipping company in Singapore providing
freight services for coal shipment to CGPL). All these companies constitute a single cash generating unit (CGU) and
form part of same segment due to interdependency of cash flows. CGPL is incurring significant losses on account of
significant increase in coal prices due to change in Indonesian laws which is offset by the profits earned by the mining
companies.

Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements

7. Non-current Investments (Contd.)


The Company has performed the impairment assessment and determined the value in use based on estimated
cash flow projections over the life of the assets included in CGU. The Company bases its impairment calculation on
detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which
the individual assets are allocated. For Mundra power plant, future cash flows is estimated based on remaining period
of long term power purchase agreement (PPA) and thereafter based on management’s estimate on tariff and other
assumptions. Cash flow projection of Mines is derived based on estimated coal production considering the renewal
of license for operating the Mines. In the past, the Company had recognised an impairment provision of ` 3,555 crore
in CGU. A reassessment of the assumptions used in estimating the impact of impairment of the cash generating unit
(CGU) comprising of Coastal Gujarat Power Ltd. and the Indonesian coal mines, combined with the significant impact
of unwinding of a year's discount on the cash flows, would have resulted in a reversal of ₹ 1,625 crore of provision
for impairment. Considering the significant uncertainties arising from ongoing renegotiation of the Mundra Power
Purchase Agreement, as recommended by the High Powered Committee, and the pending renewal of the mining
license at the Indonesian coal mines, the Company has not effected such a reversal. The reversal of impairment has
not resulted from any significant improvement in the estimated service potential of the concerned CGU.

Key assumptions used for value in use calculation include coal prices, energy prices post the PPA period, discount
rates and exchange rates. Short term coal prices and energy prices used in three to five years projections are based on
market survey and expert analysis report. Afterwards increase in cost of coal and exchange rates are considered based
on long term historical trend. Further, the Management strongly believes that mine licenses will be renewed post
expiry. Discount rate represents the current market assessment of the risk specific to CGU taking into consideration
the time value of money. Pre tax discount rate used in the calculation of value in use of investment in power plant
is 10.50% p.a. (31st March, 2020: 10.87% p.a.) and investment in coal mines and related infrastructure companies is
14.11% p.a. (31st March, 2020: 12.68% p.a.).

(b) Tata Power International Pte. Ltd. (TPIPL) (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) holds investments in
Adjaristsqali Netherlands B.V.(ABV) (a joint venture of TPIPL) operating 187 MW hydro power plant in Georgia. During
the previous year, the Company has recognised a reversal of ` 235.00 crore comprising of reversal of ` 103.74 crore
towards financial guarantee obligation and impairment loss reversal of `131.26 crore which was disclosed as an
exceptional item in the statement of profit and loss.

1. Company holds security deposits of ` 245.75 crore (31st March, 2020 - ` 234.48 crore) in respect of electricity receivables.
2. The carrying amount of trade receivable of ` 205.00 crore does not include receivables which are subject to a factoring
arrangement. Under this arrangement, the Company has transferred the relevant receivables to the factor in exchange
for cash on non recourse basis. The Company, therefore, has derecognised the said receivables under the factoring
arrangement.

Corporation and Tata Steel Ltd. which represents Company's large customers who owe more than 5% of the total balance

of trade receivables.
The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based
on a provision matrix. The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward
looking information. The expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of the days the receivables are due and the
rates as given in the provision matrix. The provision matrix at the end of the reporting period is as follows:

18a. Assets Classified as Held For Sale

Our Emphasis on Value


Accounting Policy
Non-current assets or disposal group are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally
through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the asset or
disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary
for sale of such asset or disposal group and its sale is highly probable. Management must be committed to the sale, which
should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification. As at each
balance sheet date, the management reviews the appropriateness of such classification.

Non-current assets or disposal group classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and
fair value less costs to sell. Property, plant and equipments and intangible assets once classified as held for sale are not

Our Value-creation Paradigm


depreciated or amortised.

A disposal group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is
classified as held for sale, and:
- represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations,
- is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations.

Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount as
profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit and loss. Additional disclosures are provided
hereunder. All other notes to the Standalone financial statements mainly include amounts for continuing operations, unless

23. Lease Liabilities
Accounting Policy
At inception of contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease
if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Overview
At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates consideration in the
contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone price.

As a Lessee
i) Right-of-Use Assets
The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are measured
at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease
liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred,
lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received and estimate of costs

Our Emphasis on Value


to dismantle. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the
estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
- Plant and Equipment - 2 years
- Leasehold land including Sub-surface rights - 2 to 25 years
The Company presents right-to-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in ‘Property, Plant
and Equipment'.

ii) Lease Liabilities


At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of

Our Value-creation Paradigm


lease payments to be made over the lease term. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses
its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily
determinable.

After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and
reduced for the lease payments made. The carrying amount is remeasured when there is a change in future lease
payments arising from a change in index or rate. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if
there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments or a change in the assessment of an
option to purchase the underlying asset.

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


The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases. It also applies the lease of
low-value assets recognition exemption that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and

Statutory Reports
leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leasing arrangement as Lessee


The Company has lease contracts for various items of plant, machinery, land, vehicles and other equipments used in its
operations. Leases of Leasehold land including sub-surface rights and plant and equipment generally have lease term
between 2 and 25 years. Generally, the Company is restricted from assigning and subleasing the leased assets.

26. Provisions
Accounting Policy
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

Overview
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 a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the
present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
Present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions with charge to statement of
profit and loss. An onerous contract is considered to exist where the Company has a contract under which the unavoidable
costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the
contract.

Our Emphasis on Value


Restructuring provisions are recognised only when the Company has a constructive obligation, which is when: (i) a detailed
formal plan identifies the business or part of the business concerned, the location and number of employees affected, a
detailed estimate of the associated costs, and the timeline; and (ii) the employees affected have been notified of the plan’s
main features.
Defined contribution plans
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered
service entitling them to the contributions.

Defined benefits plans

Our Value-creation Paradigm


The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is determined using the projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets
(excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the
balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
- The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and

- The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs

Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognises
the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit and loss:

Statutory Reports
- Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non routine
settlements; and

- Net interest expense or income.

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and other post-employment medical benefits are determined using actuarial
valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in
the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is sensitive to changes in
these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. In determining the appropriate discount rate for
Financial Statements

plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds. The mortality rate is based
on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic
changes. Future salary increases are based on expected future inflation rates.

1. Defined Contribution plan
The Company makes superannuation fund contributions to defined contribution plan for eligible employees. Under the
scheme, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of the payroll costs. The Company has no obligation,
other than the contribution payable to the fund. The Company recognises contribution payable to the superannuation
fund scheme as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.

The Company has recognised ` 7.84 crore (31st March, 2020 - ` 9.32 crore) for superannuation contribution in the statement
of profit and loss. The said amount is excluding of amounts recognised by the Strategic Engineering Division (SED)
(Discontinued operations). The contribution payable to the plan by the Company is at rates specified in the rules of the plan.

2. Defined benefit plans

Provident Fund
The Company makes Provident Fund contributions to defined benefit plans for eligible employees. Under the scheme, the
Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of the payroll costs to fund the benefits. The contributions as
specified are paid to the provident fund trust set by the Company. The Company is generally liable for annual contributions.
However, any shortfall in the fund assets based on the government specified minimum rates of return are recognised as an
expense in the year it is incurred.

March, March, March, March, March, March,

Healthcare cost 0.50% 0.50% Increase by 4.60 4.81 Decrease by 4.14 4.30
The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant.
In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the
sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the
defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been
applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

Statutory Reports
The method and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.
These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: Investment Risk, Interest Risk, Longevity Risk and Salary
Risk.
Investment Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is
determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds.
Interest Risk A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by
an increase in the return on the plan debt investments.
Longevity Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate
of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life
Financial Statements

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


Salary Risk The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan
participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

The contribution expected to be made by the Company during the financial year 2021-22 is ` 19.20 crore.

2.6 Risk exposure:


Through its defined benefit plans, the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed
below:
Asset volatility:
The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to government bond yield. If plan assets
underperform this yield, it will result in deficit. These are subject to interest rate risk. To offset the risk, the plan assets have
been deployed in high grade insurer managed funds.
Inflation rate risk:
Higher than expected increase in salary and medical cost will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk:
This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability
and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligations is not straight forward and depends
upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criterion.

2.7 Major categories of plan assets:


Plan assets are funded with the trust set up by the Company. The trust invests the funds in various financial instruments.

30. Revenue from Operations


Revenue recognition
Accounting Policy
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
Description of performance obligations are as follows :
(i) Sale of Power - Generation (Thermal and Hydro)
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered.
The Company as per the prevalent tariff regulations is required to recover its Annual Revenue Requirement ('ARR')
comprising of expenditure on account of fuel cost, operations and maintenance expenses, financing costs, taxes and
assured return on regulator approved equity with additional incentive for operational efficiencies. Accordingly, rate per
unit is determined using input method based on the Company's efforts to the satisfaction of a performance obligation
to deliver power.
As per tariff regulations, the Company determines ARR and any surplus/shortfall in recovery of the same is accounted as
revenue.
(ii) Sale of Power - Generation (Wind and Solar)
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered at the
contracted rate.
(iii) Transmission of Power
Revenue from transmission of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for transmission of electricity.
The Company as per the prevalent tariff regulations is required to recover its Annual Revenue Requirement ('ARR')
comprising of expenditure on account of operations and maintenance expenses, financing costs, taxes and assured
return on regulator approved equity with additional incentive for operational efficiencies.
Input method is used to recognize revenue based on the Company's efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance
obligation to deliver power.
As per tariff regulations, the Company determines ARR and any surplus/shortfall in recovery of the same is accounted
as revenue.
(iv) Sale of Power - Distribution
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered at the pre
determined rate.
(v) Rendering of Services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time based on :
Input method where the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred
to date to the total estimated costs at completion of performance obligation. Revenue, including estimated fees or
profits, are recorded proportionally based on measure of progress.
Output method where direct measurements of value to the customer based on survey's of performance completed to
date.
Revenue is recognised net of cash discount at a point in time at the contracted rate.
(vi) Consumers are billed on a monthly basis and are given average credit period of 30 to 45 days for payment. No delayed
payment charges ('DPC') is charged for the initial 30 days from the date of receipt of invoice by customers. Thereafter,
DPC is charged as per the relevant contracts on the outstanding balance once the dues are received. Revenue in
respect of delayed payment charges and interest on delayed payments leviable as per the relevant contracts are
recognised on actual realisation or accrued based on an assessment of certainty of realisation supported by either an
acknowledgement from customers or on receipt of favourable order from regulator / authorities.
(vii) In the regulated operations of the Company where tariff recovered from consumers is determined on cost plus return
on equity, the Income tax cost is pass through cost and accordingly the Company recognises Deferred tax recoverable/
payable against any Deferred tax expense/ income. The same is included in 'Revenue from Operations' in case of
Generation and Transmission business.
There are no significant judgements involved while evaluating the timing as to when customers obtain control of
promised goods and services.

31. Other Income


Accounting Policy
Dividend and Interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder's right to receive payment has been established.
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.

Accounting Policy

Our Emphasis on Value


Current Tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation
authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at
the reporting date.
Current income tax related to items recognised outside Statement of Profit and Loss are recognised either in other
comprehensive income or in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to
situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Standalone

Our Value-creation Paradigm


financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are
recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary
differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from
the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to
give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become
probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Significant management judgement is
required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level

Statutory Reports
of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

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.

For operations carried out under tax holiday period (Section 80IA of Income Tax Act, 1961), deferred tax assets or liabilities,
if any, have been recorded for the tax consequences of those temporary differences between the carrying values of assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases that reverse after the tax holiday ends.

Deferred tax related to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised either in other comprehensive income or in

and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

40. Earnings Per Share (EPS)


Accounting Policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company
by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is
computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number
of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity
shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity
shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average
market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning
of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period
presented. The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods
presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the standalone
financial statements by the Board of Directors.

42. Financial Instruments (Contd.)
Note:
Certain unquoted investments are not held for trading, instead they are held for medium or long term strategic purpose. Upon the
application of Ind AS 109 'Financial Instruments', the Company has chosen to designate these investments in equity instruments as
at FVTOCI as the management believe this provides more meaningful presentation for medium and long term strategic investments,

Overview
then reflecting changes in fair value immediately in profit or loss.
The management assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, other balances with banks, trade receivables, loans, finance

lease receivables, unbilled revenues, trade payables, other financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely
due to the short term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values.
- Fair value of the government securities are based on the price quotations near the reporting date. Fair value of the unquoted equity
shares have been estimated using market comparable method. The valuation requires management to make certain assumptions
about the marketability, active market price, discount rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within
the range can be reasonably assessed and are used in management's estimate of fair value for those unquoted equity investments.

Our Emphasis on Value


- The fair value of the remaining FVTOCI financial assets are derived from quoted market price in active markets.
- The fair value of debentures is determined by using the quoted prices .The own non-performance risk as on 31st March, 2021 was
assessed to be insignificant.
- The cost of certain unquoted investments approximate their fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair value
measurements and the cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range.
- The fair value of loans from banks, other current financial liabilities and other non-current financial liabilities is estimated by
discounting future cash flow using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.

42.2 Fair value hierarchy


The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either
observable or unobservable and consists of the following three levels:

Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities. This includes quoted equity instruments, government securities and quoted borrowings (fixed rate) that have
quoted price.

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 307


Notes to the Standalone Financial Statements

42. Financial Instruments (Contd.)


Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): Inputs are 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). This includes
derivative financial instruments and unquoted floating and fixed rate borrowings.
Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): Inputs are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumptions that
are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on
available market data. This includes unquoted equity shares and contingent consideration receivable.
The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and financial assets

42.3 Capital Management & Gearing Ratio

Our Emphasis on Value


For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and all other equity reserves
attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to
maximize the value for shareholders.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the
requirements of the financial covenants. From time to time, the Company reviews its policy related to dividend payment
to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or fresh issue of shares. The Company monitors capital using gearing ratio,
which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company’s policy is to keep the gearing ratio around 50%. The
Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, less cash and bank balances as detailed in the
notes below.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


The Company's capital management is intended to create value for shareholders by facilitating the meeting of its long-term
and short-term goals. Its Capital structure consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in notes below) and total equity.
Gearing ratio
The gearing ratio at the end of the reporting period was as follows:
` crore
As at As at
31st March, 2021 31st March, 2020

Net debt 20,717.00 17,843.35
Total Capital (ii) 18,378.56 15,261.97

Statutory Reports
Capital and net debt 39,095.56 33,105.32
Net debt to Total Capital plus net debt ratio (%) 52.99 53.90
(i) Debt is defined as Non-current borrowings (including current maturities) and Current borrowings (excluding
derivative, financial guarantee contracts and contingent considerations) and interest accrued on Non-current and
Current borrowings.
(ii) Equity is defined as Equity share capital, Unsecured perpetual securities and other equity.

In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it
meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements.
Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have

been no significant breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current year.
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31st March,

42.4 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise borrowings, trade and other payables,
financial guarantee contracts and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the
Company’s operations and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Company’s principal financial assets include
investments, loans, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, unbilled receivables,
finance lease receivables and other financial assets that derive directly from its operations. The Company also holds FVTOCI
investments and enters into derivative transactions.

42.4.1 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises of three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk. The impact
of equity price risk is not significant. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, derivative
financial instruments and FVTOCI investments.

The sensitivity analysis has been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest
rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant. The
analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post-retirement
obligations; provisions; and the non-financial assets.
a. Foreign currency risk management
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes

Company’s policy is to keep between 40% and 60% of its borrowings at fixed rates of interest. To manage this, the
Company enters into fixed rate borrowings, in which it agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between
fixed and variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount.
Interest rate sensitivity:
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on exposure to interest rates for term loans and debentures
that have floating rate at the end of the reporting period and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the
financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period.
If the interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower and all the other variables were held constant, the effect
on Interest expense for the respective financial years and consequent effect on Company's profit in that financial year
would have been as below:

42.4.2 Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables)
and from its financing activities including loans and other financial instruments.

Refer Note 8 for credit risk and other information in respect of trade receivables. Other receivables as stated above are due from the
parties under normal course of the business and as such the Company believes exposure to credit risk to be minimal.
The Company has not acquired any credit impaired asset.
42.4.3 Liquidity risk management
The current liabilities of the Company exceeds the current assets. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining
adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash
flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Having regards to the nature of the business wherein
the Company is able to generate fixed cash flows over a period of time and to optimize the cost of funding, the Company,
from time to time, funds its long-term investment from short-term sources. The short-term borrowings can be rollforward or,
if required, can be refinanced from long term borrowings. Hence, the Company considers the liquidity risk as low.
The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted
payments.

on the probability of the counterparty claiming under the guarantee which is a function of the likelihood that the financial
receivables held by the counterparty which are guaranteed suffer credit losses.

45. Impact of COVID-19


India and other global markets experienced significant disruption in operations resulting from uncertainty caused by the
worldwide coronavirus pandemic. Management believes that there is not much of an impact likely due to this pandemic on
the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates except that there exists some uncertainty over
impact of COVID-19 on future business performance of its coal mining companies which form part of Mundra CGU (comprising
of investment in companies owning Mundra power plant, coal mines and related infrastructure). Based on sensitivity analysis,
management believes that the said uncertainty is not likely to impact the recoverability of Mundra CGU. As the situation is
still continuously evolving, the eventual impact may be different from the estimates made as of the date of approval of these
Financial Statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Corporate Information:
The Tata Power Company Limited (the ‘Company’ or 'Parent Company') is a public limited company domiciled and
incorporated in India under the Indian Companies Act, 1913. The registered office of the Company is located at Bombay
House, 24, Homi Mody Street, Mumbai 400 001 India. The Company is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange of India

Overview
Limited (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE).The principal business of the Company is generation,
transmission, distribution and trading of electricity.

The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as 'the Group') is one of India's largest integrated power companies
with an international presence. The Group together with its joint venture companies has an installed gross generation
capacity of 12,808 MW and a presence in all the segments of the power sector viz. Fuel Security and Logistics, Generation

MW Ultra Mega Power Project at Mundra (Gujarat) based on super-critical technology. It is also one of the largest renewable
energy players in India with a clean energy portfolio of 3,949 MW. Its international presence includes strategic investments

in Indonesia, Singapore, Zambia, Georgia and Bhutan. With its track record of technology leadership, project execution
excellence, world class safety processes, customer care and driving green initiatives the Group is poised for multi-fold growth

2. Significant Accounting Policies:


2.1 Statement of compliance
The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) as
notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 read with section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013
(as amended from time to time).

Our Value-creation Paradigm


2.2 Basis of preparation and presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following assets and
liabilities which have been measured at fair value or revalued amount:
- derivative financial instruments,
- certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments).
- employee benefit expenses (Refer Note 25 for accounting policy)
Historical cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire assets
at the time of their acquisition or the amount of proceeds received in exchange for the obligation, or at the amount of cash
or cash equivalents expected to be paid to satisfy the liability in the normal course of business. 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.

Statutory Reports
2.3 Basis of Consolidation:
The Group consolidates all entities which are controlled by it. The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. Control exists when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has
rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power
over the entity. Power is demonstrated through existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which
significantly affect the entity’s returns. The entities are consolidated from the date control commences until the date control
ceases.

2.3.1 Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements of the Group companies are consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group
balances and transactions including unrealised gain/loss from such transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. These
Financial Statements

consolidated financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the Group. Profit or loss
and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group
and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.

Changes in the Group's holding that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying
amount of the Group's holding and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative
holding. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the
consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2. Significant Accounting Policies(Contd.)


2.3.2 Joint Ventures and Associates
Joint Ventures are entities over which the Group has joint control. Associates are entities over which the Group has significant
influence but not control. Investments in Joint Ventures and Associates are accounted for using the equity method of
accounting. The investment is initially recognised at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognise
the investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the acquisition date. The Group’s investment in Joint Ventures
and Associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition. (Refer Note 6a)

2.4 Business Combinations


The Group accounts for its business combinations under acquisition method of accounting. Acquisition related costs
are recognised in consolidated statement of profit and loss as incurred. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and
contingent liabilities that meet the condition for recognition are recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Purchase consideration paid in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. Where the fair value
of identifiable assets and liabilities exceed the cost of acquisition, after reassessing the fair values of the net assets and
contingent liabilities, the excess is recognised as capital reserve.

The interest of non-controlling shareholders is initially measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’
proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. The choice of measurement basis is made on an acquisition-
by-acquisition basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests is the amount of those
interests at initial recognition plus the non-controlling interests’ share of subsequent changes in equity of subsidiaries.

Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under the common control are accounted at
historical costs. The difference between any consideration given and the aggregate historical carrying amount of assets and
liabilities of the acquired entity are recorded in shareholders’ equity.

In case of bargain purchase, before recognising gain in respect thereof, the Group determines whether there exists clear
evidence of the underlying reasons for classifying the business combination as a bargain purchase. Thereafter, the Group
reassesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and recognizes
any additional assets or liabilities that are identified in that reassessment. The Group then reviews the procedures used to
measure the amount that Ind AS requires for the purposes of calculating the bargain purchase. If the gain remains after this
reassessment and review, the Group recognises it in other comprehensive income and accumulates the same in equity as
capital reserve. This gain is attributed to the acquirer. If there does not exist clear evidence of the underlying reasons for
classifying the business combination as a bargain purchase, the Group recognises the gain, after reassessing and reviewing,
directly in equity as capital reserve.

2.5 Goodwill
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount
recognised for non-controlling interests and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and
liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the
Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews
the procedures used to measure the amount to be recognised at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an
excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in
other comprehensive income (OCI) and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of
bargain purchase, the entity recognises the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment
testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group’s cash-
generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the
acquiree are assigned to those units.

A cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when
there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its
carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit
and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss
for goodwill is recognised in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

3. Other Significant Accounting Policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements


3.1 Foreign Currencies
The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee, which is also the parent company’s functional
currency. For each entity, the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of
each entity are measured using that functional currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency spot
rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. However, for practical reasons, the Group uses an average rate
if the average approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of
exchange at the reporting date.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange
rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated
using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-
monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value
of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in OCI or profit or loss are also
recognised in OCI or profit or loss, respectively).
The results and financial position of foreign operations (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that
have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
a) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet

336 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
3. Other Significant Accounting Policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements
(Contd.)
b) Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the
cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the

Overview
dates of the transactions), and
c) All resulting exchange differences are recognised in OCI.
3.2 Current versus non-current classification
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated
as current when it is:
- expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle,
- held primarily for the purpose of trading,
- expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

Our Emphasis on Value


- cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after
the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
- it is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,
- it is held primarily for the purpose of trading,
- it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
- there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

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

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

3.3 Warranties
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations under local sale of goods legislation are recognised at the date of
sale of the relevant products, at the Group's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group's obligation.

3.4 Financial Instruments


A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument of another entity.

Statutory Reports
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instruments.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial
assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of
financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in consolidated
statement of profit and loss.

Effective interest method


The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial instrument and of allocating
Financial Statements

interest income or expenses over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts future cash
receipts or payments through the expected life of the financial instrument, or where appropriate, a shorter period.

3.5 Financial Assets


All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way
purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established
by regulation or convention in the market place. All recognised financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety
at either amortised cost or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 337


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3. Other Significant Accounting Policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements


(Contd.)
3.5.1 Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method if these financial
assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding.

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

On initial recognition, the Group makes an irrevocable election on an instrument-by-instrument basis to present the
subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments, other
than equity investment which are held for trading. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses
arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the 'Reserve for equity
instruments through other comprehensive income'. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to consolidated statement
of profit and loss on sale of the investments.

3.5.3 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)


Investments in equity instruments are classified as at FVTPL, unless the Group irrevocably elects on initial recognition to
present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income for investments in equity instruments which are
not held for trading. Other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised
cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income.

3.5.4 Investment in joint ventures and associates


Investment in joint ventures and associates are accounted using equity method less impairment.

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in
the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net
assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists
only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Impairment of investments:
The Group reviews its carrying value of investments carried at cost, amortised cost or equity method annually, or more
frequently when there is an indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the
impairment loss is accounted for in the statement of profit and loss.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the Investment is increased to the revised estimate
of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the cost of the Investment. A reversal of
an impairment loss is recognised immediately in statement of profit and loss.

3.5.5 Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) is primarily
derecognised (i.e. removed from the Group’s balance sheet) when:

- the right to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
- the Group has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received
cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either (a) the Group
has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained
substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

338 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
3. Other Significant Accounting Policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements
(Contd.)
When the Group has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement,
it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor

Overview
retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to
recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises
an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and
obligations that the Group has retained.

3.5.6 Impairment of financial assets


The Group assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a Group of financial assets is impaired. Ind AS
109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Group recognises lifetime expected losses
for all contract assets and/or all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets,

Our Emphasis on Value


expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to
the life time expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.

3.6 Financial liabilities and equity instruments


3.6.1 Classification as debt or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by a Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the
substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

3.6.2 Equity Instruments


An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its
liabilities. Equity instruments issued by a Group entity are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


3.6.3 Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and
losses are recognised in consolidated statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through
the effective interest rate (EIR) amortisation process. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or
premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities
designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if these are incurred for the
purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising
on remeasurement recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

3.6.4 Derecognition

Statutory Reports
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When
an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms
of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the
original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the
consolidated statement of profit and loss.

3.6.5 Financial guarantee contracts


Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Group are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the
holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of
a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction
Financial Statements

costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of
the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of Ind AS 109 - ' Financial Instruments' and the
amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.

3.7 Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting


The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments such as forward contracts, options contacts and interest
rate swaps, to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts and cross
currency swaps.

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 339


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

3. Other Significant Accounting Policies, critical accounting estimates and judgements


(Contd.)
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into
and are subsequently re-measured at fair value.

Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is
negative.

The purchase contracts that meet the definition of a derivative under Ind AS 109 are recognised in the consolidated statement
of profit and loss. Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to consolidated
statement of profit and loss.

The Group adopts hedge accounting for forward, interest rate and commodity contracts wherever possible. At the inception
of each hedge, there is a formal, documented designation of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes, inter
alia, items such as identification of the hedged item transaction and nature of the risk being hedged. At inception, each
hedge is expected to be highly effective in achieving an offset of changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged
risk. The effectiveness of hedge instruments to reduce the risk associated with the exposure being hedged is assessed and
measured at the inception and on an ongoing basis. The ineffective portion of designated hedges is recognised immediately
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.

When hedge accounting is applied:


• for fair value hedges of recognised assets and liabilities, changes in fair value of the hedged assets and liabilities
attributable to the risk being hedged, are recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and compensate for
the effective portion of symmetrical changes in the fair value of the derivatives.
• for cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative is recognised directly in other
comprehensive income and the ineffective portion is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss. If the
cash flow hedge of a firm commitment or forecasted transaction results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or
liability, then, at the time the asset or liability is recognised, the associated gains or losses on the derivative that had
previously been recognised in equity are included in the initial measurement of the asset or liability. For hedges that
do not result in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a liability, amounts deferred in equity are recognised in the
consolidated statement of profit and loss in the same period in which the hedged item affects the consolidated statement
of profit and loss. In cases where hedge accounting is not applied, changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss as and when they arise.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer
qualifies for hedge accounting. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognised in equity
is retained in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net
cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is transferred to the consolidated statement of profit and loss for the period.

3.8 Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities


The Group determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no
reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which
are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets.
Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent. The Group’s senior management determines change in the
business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Group’s operations. Such changes are
evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Group either begins or ceases to perform an
activity that is significant to its operations. If the Group reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively
from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business
model. The Group does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.

3.9 Offsetting of financial instruments


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

3.10 Government Grants

Overview
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions
attaching to them and that the grant will be received.

Government grants relating to income are determined and recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss over
the period necessary to match them with the cost that they are intended to compensate and presented within other income.

Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipments are reduced from the cost of the assets.

The benefit of a Government loan at a below market rate of interest is treated as a Government grant, measured as the
difference between proceeds received and the fair value of loan based on prevailing market interest rates.

Our Emphasis on Value


3.11 Dividend distribution to equity shareholders of the Parent Company
The Parent Company recognises a liability to make dividend distributions to its equity holders when the distribution is
authorised and the distribution is no longer at its discretion. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorised
when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity. In case of Interim Dividend,
the liability is recognised on its declaration by the Board of Directors.

3.12 Service Concession Agreement (SCA)


A Group entity has entered into contract for design, part finance, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection, testing,
commissioning and operation and maintenance for 25 years of Grid Interactive Solar Power Project through Public
Private Partnership with a public sector power generator (PSU). The PSU has paid part of the project cost to the Group on

Our Value-creation Paradigm


commissioning of plant/Handover of Project. Remaining cost and the operations and maintenance cost is being recovered
over the period of the project in accordance with the agreement with the PSU.

Ind AS 115 establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers and requires that
revenue be recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for
transferring goods or services to a customer. It requires entities to exercise judgement, taking into consideration all of the
relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with their customers.

As per the arrangement, the share of electricity revenue is divided into three parts i.e. towards deferred payment, interest
income and operation and maintenance revenue. The Group has initially measured financial asset at fair value and
subsequently at amortized cost by recognising share of electricity sale revenue first towards operation and maintenance
revenue. Subsequent thereto, amount is recognised as interest income at computed Internal Rate of Return (IRR) on opening
balance of the financial asset. Further, surplus of revenue share over and above operation and maintenance revenue and
interest income is recognised as recovery of the financial asset.

Statutory Reports
3.13 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Group's accounting policies, the Management is required to make judgements, estimates and
assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The
estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be
relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Detailed information about each of these
estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation for each

4. Property, Plant and Equipments


Accounting Policy
Property, plant and equipments is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Cost includes purchase price (net of trade discount and rebates) and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to
its working condition for its intended use and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs capitalised in accordance with Ind AS
23. Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any. Other Indirect expenses incurred
relating to project, net of income earned during the project development stage prior to its intended use, are considered as
pre-operative expenses and disclosed under Capital Work-in-Progress. When significant parts of plant and equipments are
required to be replaced at intervals, the Group depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when
a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipments as a replacement
if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in the consolidated statement
of profit and loss as incurred.

The accounting policy related to Right-of-Use Assets has been disclosed in Note 22.

Depreciation
Depreciation commences when an asset is ready for its intended use. Freehold land and assets held for sale are not
depreciated.

Regulated Assets:
Depreciation on Property, plant and equipments in respect of electricity business of the Group covered under Part B
of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013, has been provided on the straight line method at the rates specified in tariff
regulations notified by respective Electricity Regulatory Commission ('Regulator').

Non Regulated Assets:


Depreciation is recognised on the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction) less their
residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

The estimated useful lives, 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. The Group, based on technical assessment made
by technical expert and management estimate, depreciates certain items of building, plant and equipments over estimated
useful lives which are different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The management
believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are
likely to be used.

plant and equipments is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset
and is recognised in consolidated statement of profit and loss.

Impairment of tangible and intangible assets


The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication
exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An
asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its
value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that
are largely independent of those from other assets of or Group of assets.

When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is writ-
ten down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future post tax cash flows are discounted to their present value using a post-tax

Statutory Reports
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In de-
termining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be
identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.

The Group basis its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately
for each of the Group’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally
cover the PPA period. To estimate Cash flow projections beyond periods covered by the most recent budgets/forecasts, the
Group extrapolates cash flow projections in the budget using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, unless
an increasing rate can be justified. In any case, this growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the
market in which the asset is used.

Impairment assessment of Goodwill (other than acquired during the year)


In accordance with IND AS 36 “Impairment of Assets” the Group performed impairment testing of Goodwill assigned to
each Cash Generating Unit (CGU) as at 31st March, 2021 applying value in use approach across all the CGUs i.e. using cash
flow projections based on financial budgets covering contracted power sale agreements with procurers (15 to 20 years)

Our Emphasis on Value


considering a discount rate (pre-tax) in the range of 8.86% per annum. The Group has used financial projections for 15 to 20
years as the tariff rates are fixed as per PPA.

Based on the results of the Goodwill impairment test, the estimated value in use in all CGUs were higher than their respective
carrying amount, hence impairment provision recorded during the current year is Nil (31st March, 2020 - Nil). Management
believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which recoverable amount is based would not
cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the aggregate recoverable amount of the Goodwill.

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations for the power cash-generating unit are as follows:

Operation & Maintenance cost inflation Escalation of 5%

Our Value-creation Paradigm


Discount Rate 8.86% (31st March, 2020 10.05% to 10.54%) Pre-Tax Discount rate has been
derived based on current cost of borrowing and equity rate of return in line
with the current market expectations.
Plant load factor (PLF) Plant load factor is estimated for each CGU based on past trend of PLF and
expected PLF in future years
5 b. Other Intangible Assets
Accounting Policy
Intangible Assets acquired separately
Intangible Assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible
assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses if any.

Internally generated intangibles

Statutory Reports
Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is
reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.

Derecognition of Intangible Assets


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, are recognised in consolidated statement of profit and loss when the asset
is derecognised.

Amortisation of Intangible Assets


Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life on straight line basis and assessed for
Financial Statements

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

6b. (i) (a) The Group had in accordance with Ind AS 36 – “Impairment of Assets”, carried out impairment assessment of its
Mundra Ultra Mega Power Project (UMPP), shipping assets along with investments in Indonesian mining companies
PT Kaltim Prima Coal (KPC) and PT Baramulti Suksessarana TBK (BSSR). All these Companies constitute a single cash
generating unit (Mundra CGU). The Group has performed the impairment reassessment and determined the value
in use based on estimated cash flow projections over the life of the assets included in CGU. The Group bases its
impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the
Group’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. For Mundra power plant, future cash flows is estimated
based on remaining period of long term power purchase agreement (PPA) and thereafter based on management’s
estimate on tariff and other assumptions. Cash flow projection of Mines is derived based on estimated coal production
considering the renewal of license for operating the Mines. Upto the previous year, the Group has recognised net
impairment of ₹ 1,119.77 crore against carrying value of Mundra CGU which consists of impairment of investment of
₹ 808.83 crore, impairment of property, plant and equipments ₹ 308.18 crore and impairment of intangible assets
₹ 2.76 crore.
During the year, the Group has performed the impairment reassessment and determined the value in use based on
estimated cash flow projections over the life of the assets included in Mundra CGU. A reassessment of the assumptions
used in estimating the impact of impairment, combined with the significant impact of unwinding of a year’s discount
on the cash flows, would result in a reversal of ₹ 1,119.77 crore of provision for impairment. Considering the significant
uncertainties arising from ongoing renegotiation of the Mundra Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), as recommended
by the High Powered Committee (HPC) and the pending renewal of the mining license in Indonesian coal mines, the
Group has not effected such a reversal. The reversal of impairment has not resulted from any significant improvement
in the estimated service potential of the concerned CGU.
Key assumptions used for value in use calculation include coal prices, energy prices post the PPA period, discount
rates and exchange rates. Short term coal prices and energy prices used in three to five years projections are based on
market survey and expert analysis report. Afterwards increase in cost of coal and exchange rates are considered based
on long term historical trend. Further, the Management strongly believes that mine licenses will be renewed post
expiry. Discount rate represents the current market assessment of the risk specific to CGU taking into consideration
the time value of money. Pre tax discount rate used in the calculation of value in use of investment in power plant
is 10.50% p.a. (31st March 2020: 10.87% p.a.) and investment in coal mines and related infrastructure companies is
14.11% p.a. (31st March 2020: 12.68% p.a.).

2. The carrying amount of trade receivable of ₹ 205.00 does not include receivables which are subject to a factoring arrangement. Under this
arrangement, the Group has transferred the relevant receivables to the factor in exchange for cash on non recourse basis. The Group, therefore,
has derecognised the said receivables under the factoring arrangement.
3. Trade receivables include receivables amounting to ₹ 80.17 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 299.79 crore) and ₹ 83.28 crore (31st March, 2020 -
₹ 86.03 crore) from Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO) and Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited,
respectively, which are subject to a ‘bill discounting arrangement’. Under this arrangement, the Group has transferred the relevant receivables
to the banks in exchange of cash and is prevented from selling or pledging the receivables. The cost of bill discounting is to the customer's
account. However, the Group has retained late payment and credit risk. The Group therefore continues to recognise the transferred assets in
their entirety in its financial statements. The amount repayable under the bills discounting arrangement is presented as unsecured/ secured
borrowing having recourse to the Group and interest liability on amount of bill discounted is borne by the customer. The maturity period of
the transfer is 6 to 9 months from the date of discounting.

provision matrix. The expected credit loss allowance is not calculated on non current trade receivable on account of dispute.
The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward looking information. The
expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of the days the receivables are due and the rates as given in the
provision matrix. The provision matrix at the end of the reporting period is as follows:

(Unsecured unless otherwise stated)
Accounting Policy
Leases are classified as finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental
to ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating lease. Amount due from lessees under finance leases
are recorded as receivables at the Group's net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting
periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease. The
Group recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

12. Deferred Tax

Our Emphasis on Value


Accounting Policy
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the
consolidated 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 to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which
those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the
temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the
taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance
with the tax laws in India, which is likely to give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future
income tax liability.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no
longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become
probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Significant management judgement is
required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level
of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.
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.
For operations carried out under tax holiday period (Section 80IA of Income Tax Act, 1961), deferred tax assets or liabilities,
if any, have been recorded for the tax consequences of those temporary differences between the carrying values of assets

Statutory Reports
and liabilities and their respective tax bases that reverse after the tax holiday ends.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the
relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Deferred tax related to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised either in other comprehensive income or in
equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority
and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, which is likely to
give future economic benefits in the form of availability of set off against future income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is
recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the
future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised. The Group reviews the “MAT credit entitlement” asset at
Financial Statements

each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that it will pay normal tax during
the specified period.

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 365


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

12. Deferred Tax (Contd.)


In the situations where one or more units of the Group are entitled to a tax holiday under the tax law, no deferred tax
(asset or liability) is recognised in respect of temporary differences which reverse during the tax holiday period, to the
extent the concerned unit’s gross total income is subject to the deduction during the tax holiday period. Deferred tax in
respect of temporary differences which reverse after the tax holiday period is recognised in the year in which the temporary
differences originate. However, the Company restricts recognition of deferred tax assets to the extent it is probable that
sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. For recognition of
deferred taxes, the temporary differences which originate first are considered to reverse first.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available
against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of
deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together
with future tax planning strategies.

Accounting Policy
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of inventory includes cost of purchase and other costs
incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Costs of inventories are determined on weighted

Overview
average basis. Finished goods and work in progress: cost includes cost of direct materials and labour and a proportion of
manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity, but excluding borrowing costs. Net realisable value
represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the
sale. Unserviceable/damaged stores and spares are identified and written down based on technical evaluation.
Property acquired or being constructed for sale in the ordinary course of business, rather than to be held for rental or
capital appreciation, is held as inventory property and is measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV).
Principally, this is residential property that the Group develops and intends to sell before, or on completion of, development.
Cost incurred in bringing each property to its present location and condition includes:

Our Emphasis on Value


- Freehold and leasehold rights for land
- Amounts paid to contractors for development
- Planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes,
development overheads and other related costs
NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business, based on market prices at the reporting date, less
estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When an inventory property is sold, the
carrying amount of the property is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The
carrying amount of inventory property recognised in profit or loss is determined with reference to the directly attributable
costs incurred on the property sold and an allocation of any other related costs based on the relative size of the property sold.

17 a. Assets Classified as Held For Sale


Accounting Policy
Non-current assets or disposal group are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally
through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the asset or
disposal Group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary
for sale of such asset or disposal Group and its sale is highly probable. Management must be committed to the sale, which
should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year from the date of classification. As at each
balance sheet date, the management reviews the appropriateness of such classification.
Non-current assets or disposal group classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair
value less costs to sell.

Statutory Reports
Property, plant and equipments and intangible assets once classified as held for sale/distribution to owners are not
depreciated or amortised.
A disposal Group qualifies as discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or is
classified as held for sale, and:
- represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations,
- is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations
Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount as
profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the statement of profit and loss. Additional disclosures are provided
hereunder. All other notes to the financial statements mainly include amounts for continuing operations, unless otherwise

contract in accordance with Ind AS 115 ‘Revenue from contract with customers.’
(vi) (a) In the earlier years, the Group had signed definitive agreements for sale of PT Arutmin Indonesia and its associated infrastructure and
trading companies and the sale consideration of USD 400.92 million is being expected to be received in a phased manner over next few
years. Accordingly, the investments (including investment in PT Mitratama Perkasa) have been classified as assets held for sale at ₹ 1,869.46

loan and other receivables from ITPC amounting to ₹ 18.59 crore and ₹ 4.15 crore respectively. Accordingly, the said investment along with
loan and other receivables has been classified as held for sale. No impairment loss has been recognised on reclassification as the Group
expects that the fair value less costs to sell is higher than the carrying amount as at 31st March, 2021.
(vii) During the previous year, the Group has decided to divest its investments in equity and preference shares of its subsidiary, TCL Ceramics

Preference share to the purchasers as a part of the conditions mentioned in the Agreement subject to final closing. The said shares has been
pledged back to the Group by the purchasers till the final closure. As all the conditions related to the closing has not been completed, the
Group believes that it still controls TCL Ceramics Ltd. till all the conditions are fulfilled. Hence, no impact of sale of share has been recognised
in the consolidated financial statements. The impact of the sale on the financial statement will not be significant.
(viii) During the previous year, Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (‘MERC’) has ordered termination of Vikhroli Transmission Lines
project carried out by the Group and decided to invite fresh bids for completion of the project. MERC has also ordered that costs incurred by
the Group shall be reimbursed by the successful bidder. Accordingly, the Group has reclassified the said project as held for sale. During the

Accounting Policy
The Group determines revenue gaps (i.e. surplus/shortfall in actual returns over returns entitled) in respect of its regulated
operations in accordance with the provisions of Ind AS 114 “Regulatory Deferral Accounts” read with the Guidance Note on
Rate Regulated Activities issued by ICAI and based on the principles laid down under the relevant Tariff Regulations/Tariff
Orders notified by the Electricity Regulatory Commission (Regulator) and the actual or expected actions of the regulator
under the applicable regulatory framework. Appropriate adjustments in respect of such revenue gaps are made in the
regulatory deferral account of the respective year for the amounts which are reasonably determinable and no significant
uncertainty exists in such determination. These adjustments/accruals representing revenue gaps are carried forward as
Regulatory deferral accounts debit/credit balances (Regulatory Assets/Regulatory Liabilities) as the case may be in the
financial statements, which would be recovered/refunded through future billing based on future tariff determination by
the regulator in accordance with the electricity regulations. The Group presents separate line items in the balance sheet for:
i. the total of all regulatory deferral account debit balances and related deferred tax balances; and
ii. the total of all regulatory deferral account credit balances and related deferred tax balances.

2. In respect of the Group's power distribution business in Delhi, Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) vide its order dated 28th
August, 2020 has trued up regulatory deferral account balance up to 31st March, 2019 at ₹ 1,890 crore as against ₹ 4,579.69 crore as per
financial books of accounts. The difference in regulatory deferral account is largely due to provisional truing up of capitalisation, disallowance
of de-capitalised property, plant and equipments, its corresponding impact on return on capital employed (ROCE), income tax and carrying
cost. The difference in regulatory deferral account also includes impact of power purchase cost of Rithala Power Plant allowed by the DERC
vide order dated 11th November, 2019 and other previous review/APTEL appeal orders. The disallowances not as per prevailing law, facts and
figures have been challenged in Review Petition or at APTEL. For truing up of capitalisation, the DERC has shared the preliminary draft report
of physical verification of property, plant and equipments for the period from FY 2004-05 to FY 2015-16. The Group after analysing the draft
report have submitted the response along with necessary documents in support of capitalisation on 29th December, 2020.

Accounting Policy
At inception of contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease
if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates consideration in the
contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone price.

As a Lessee
i) Right-of-use Assets
The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are measured
at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease
liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred,
lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received and estimate of costs
to dismantle. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the
estimated remaining useful lives of the assets, as follows:

- Port Intake channel- 40 years
- Leasehold Land including sub-surface rights- 2 to 95 years
The Group presents right-to-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in ‘Property, plant and
equipments.

ii) Lease Liabilities


At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease
payments to be made over the lease term. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group generally uses
its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily
determinable.
After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and
reduced for the lease payments made. The carrying amount is remeasured when there is a change in future lease
payments arising from a change in index or rate. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if
there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments or a change in the assessment of an
option to purchase the underlying asset.
The Group presents lease liabilities ₹ 3,537.31 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 3,560.22 crore) as financial liability in the
Balance Sheet.

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


The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases. It also applies the lease of
low-value assets recognition exemption that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and
leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leasing arrangement as Lessee

cases.
2. Certain coal suppliers have granted additional interest bearing credit period to the Group over and above their original credit period. To
leverage on better interest rate, the Group has entered into a Suppliers’ Credit Program (“Facility”) with a party whereby the party shall
pay the said coal suppliers on the original due date on behalf of the Group and the Group shall pay the party on the new due date along
with interest. This Facility is for USD 500 million and available for an initial period of 18 months. The Group has utilised USD 89.70 million
of this facility as at 31st March, 2021. As the Facility provided by the third party is within the credit period provided by the coal vendors, the
outstanding liability has been disclosed under other financial liabilities.
3. Pursuant to vesting order issued by the Odisha Electricity Regulation Commission ('OERC'), trade receivables for pre-acquisition period are not
transferred to the Group. However, the Group as a collection agent needs to collect these receivables and use the same amount for paying
obligations not transferred to the Group. The Group performs these activities purely as an agent of Western Electricity Supply Company of

25. Provisions
Accounting Policy
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is
probable that the Group 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 a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the
present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
Present obligations arising under onerous contracts are recognised and measured as provisions with charge to consolidated
statement of profit and loss. An onerous contract is considered to exist where the Group has a contract under which the
unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received
from the contract.
Restructuring provisions are recognised only when the Group has a constructive obligation, which is when: (i) a detailed
formal plan identifies the business or part of the business concerned, the location and number of employees affected, a
detailed estimate of the associated costs, and the timeline; and (ii) the employees affected have been notified of the plan’s
main features.
Defined contribution plans
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered
service entitling them to the contributions.
Defined benefit plans
The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is determined using the projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets
(excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the
balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in consolidated statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
- the date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
- the date that the Group recognises related restructuring costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Group recognises the
following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit and loss:
- Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine
settlements; and
- Net interest expense or income.

386 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
25. Provisions (Contd.)
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and other post-employment medical benefits and the present value of the
gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions

Overview
that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary
increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit
obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. In
determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of
government bonds. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change
only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases are based on expected future inflation rates.
A liability for a termination benefit is recognised at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw the offer of the
termination benefit and when the entity recognises any related restructuring costs.

Notes:
1. The provision for warranty claims represents estimated warranty liability for the products sold. These estimates are established using historical
information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims and management estimates regarding possible future incidence
based on corrective actions on product failures. The provision related to Asset held for Sale is transferred to Liabilities pertaining to Asset held
for Sale.
2. The provision for losses of Joint Ventures is recognised, to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations, in the event
that the share of losses for joint ventures accounted for using the equity method, exceeds zero.
3. The provision for losses includes provision for estimated losses on onerous contracts and provision for contingency on regulatory assets
recognised.
4. The provision for rectification work relates to the estimated cost of work agreed to be carried out for the rectification of goods supplied to the
customers. The amount is anticipated to be expensed in the subsequent year. These amounts have not been discounted for the purposes of
measuring the provision for rectification work, because the effect is not material.
5. During the year, the Group has acquired the electricity distribution business of central, southern and western Odisha. As a part of business
transfer, all the employees of the undertaking were transferred to the Group on a continuity of service conditions. Certain employees of said
electricity distribution business transferred to the Group are entitled to pension plan, gratuity plan and rehabilitation scheme (post-employ-
ment benefit plans) which are managed by separate trusts created for the purpose which is controlled and monitored by State Government.
As on the date of acquisition, the plan liabilities exceeds plan assets. The vesting order prescribes the mechanism for funding of such plan
liabilities based on request from the respective employee benefit trusts whereby the Group is required to fund the shortfall and is entitled to si-
multaneously recover the amounts from consumers. The Group has assessed these plans are defined benefit plans and accordingly recognised
it in the books of accounts. As the Group acts as an intermediary on behalf of the trusts to collect the amounts from the consumers, the amount
recoverable from consumers for the pre-acquisition period amounting to ₹ 223.34 crore are netted off with revenue from operations.

Employee benefit plan

Our Value-creation Paradigm


Healthcare cost 0.50% 0.50% Increase by 353.53 5.17 Decrease by 0.30 4.60
The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant.
In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the
sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the
defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been
applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.
The method and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior
period.
These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: Investment Risk, Interest Risk, Longevity Risk
and Salary Risk.
Investment Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is

Statutory Reports
determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds.
Interest Risk A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by
an increase in the return on the plan debt investments.
Longevity Risk The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate
of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life
expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.
Salary Risk The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan
participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

2.6 Risk exposure:


Through its defined benefit plans, the Group is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:
Asset volatility:
The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to government bond yield. If plan assets underperform
this yield, it will result in deficit. These are subject to interest rate risk. To offset the risk, the plan assets have been deployed in
high grade insurer managed funds.
Inflation rate risk:
Higher than expected increase in salary and medical cost will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk:
This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability
and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligations is not straight forward and depends upon
the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criterion.

2.7 Major categories of plan assets:


Plan assets are funded with the trust set up by the Group. The Insurer trust invests the funds in various financial instruments.
Major categories of plan assets are as follows:
Provident Fund Gratuity Pension

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

28. Revenue from Operations


Revenue recognition
Accounting Policy
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer
at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or
services.

Description of performance obligations are as follows:


(i) Sale of Power - Generation (Thermal and Hydro)
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered.
Contract price determined as per tariff regulations
The Group as per the prevalent tariff regulations is required to recover its Annual Revenue Requirement ('ARR')
comprising of expenditure on account of fuel cost, operations and maintenance expenses, financing costs, taxes and
assured return on regulator approved equity with additional incentive for operational efficiencies. Accordingly, rate per
unit is determined using input method based on the Group's efforts to the satisfaction of a performance obligation to
deliver power. As per tariff regulations, the Group determines ARR and any surplus/shortfall in recovery of the same is
accounted as revenue.
Contract Price as per long term agreements
Rate per unit is determined using input method based on the Group's efforts to the satisfaction of a performance
obligation to deliver power.
Variable consideration forming part of total transaction price will be allocated and recognised when the terms of variable
payment relate specifically to the Group's efforts to satisfy the performance obligation i.e. in the year of occurrence of
event linked to variable consideration. The transaction price is adjusted for significant financing component, if any and
the adjustment is accounted as finance cost.
(ii) Sale of Power - Generation (Wind and Solar)
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered at the
contracted rate. The transaction price is adjusted for significant financing component, if any and the adjustment is
accounted as finance cost.
(iii) Transmission of Power
Revenue from transmission of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for transmission of electricity.
The Group as per the prevalent tariff regulations is required to recover its Annual Revenue Requirement
('ARR') comprising of expenditure on account of operations and maintenance expenses, financing costs,
taxes and assured return on regulator approved equity with additional incentive for operational efficiencies.
Input method is used to recognise revenue based on the Group's efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance
obligation to deliver power.
As per tariff regulations, the Group determines ARR and any surplus/shortfall in recovery of the same is accounted as
revenue.
(iv) Sale of Power - Distribution
Revenue from sale of power is recognised net of cash discount over time for each unit of electricity delivered at the pre
determined rate.
(v) Trading of power
In the arrangement the Group is acting as an agent, the revenue is recognised on net basis when the units of electricity
are delivered to power procurers because this is when the Group transfers control over its services and the customer
benefits from the Group's such agency services.
The Group determines its revenue on certain contracts net of power purchase cost based on the following factors:
a. another party is primarily responsible for fulfilling the contract as the Group does not have the ability to direct the
use of power supplied or obtain benefits from supply of power.
b. the Group does not have inventory risk before or after the power has been delivered to customers as the power is
directly supplied to customer.

396 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
28. Revenue from Operations (Contd.)
c. the Group has no discretion in establishing the price for supply of power. The Group's consideration in these
contracts is only based on the difference between sales price charged to procurer and purchase price given to
supplier.

Overview
For other contracts which does not qualify the conditions mentioned above, revenue is determined on gross basis.
(vi) Sale of Solar Products
Revenue from turnkey contracts, which are generally time bound fixed price contracts, are recognised over the life of
the contract using the proportionate completion method, with contracts costs determining the degree of completion.
(vii) Rendering of Services
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised over time based on :
Input method where the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred

Our Emphasis on Value


to date to the total estimated costs at completion of performance obligation. Revenue, including estimated fees or
profits, are recorded proportionally based on measure of progress.
Output method where direct measurements of value to the customer based on survey's of performance completed to
date
Revenue is recognised net of cash discount at a point in time at the contracted rate.
(viii) Consumers are billed on a monthly basis and are given average credit period of 30 to 45 days for payment.
There is no significant judgement involved while evaluating the timing as to when customers obtain control of
promised goods and services.
(ix) In the regulated operations of the Group where tariff recovered from consumers is determined on cost plus return

Our Value-creation Paradigm


on equity, the Income tax cost is pass through cost and accordingly the Group recognises Deferred tax recoverable
/ payable against any Deferred tax expense/ income. The same has now been included in 'Revenue from Operations'
in case of Generation and Transmission Divisions and 'Net Movement in Regulatory Deferral Balances' in case of
Distribution Division
There is no significant judgement involved while evaluating the timing as to when customers obtain control of
promised goods and services.

Transaction Price - Remaining Performance Obligation


The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be
recognised as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Group expects to recognise these
amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the Group has not disclosed the remaining
performance obligation related disclosures for contracts as the revenue recognised corresponds directly with the value to
the customer of the entity's performance completed to date.
The aggregate value of performance obligations that are partially unsatisfied as at 31st March, 2021, other than those
meeting the exclusion criteria mentioned above is ₹ 1,11,308.19 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 1,27,165.72 crore). Out of this, the
group expects to recognise revenue of around 6.01% (31st March, 2020 - 5.66%) within the next one year and the remaining
thereafter.

Contract liability
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration
(or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers
goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due
(whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.
Significant changes in the contract assets and the contract liabilities balances during the year are as follows:

Accounting Policy
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder's right to receive payment has been established.

Overview
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.
Consumers are billed on a monthly basis and are given average credit period of 30 to 45 days for payment. No delayed
payment charges ('DPC') is charged for the initial 30 days from the date of receipt of invoice by customer. Thereafter, DPC is
charged at the rate prescribed by the Power Purchase Agreement on the outstanding balance once the dues are received.
Revenue in respect of delayed payment charges and interest on delayed payments leviable as per the relevant contracts
are recognised on actual realisation or accrued based on an assessment of certainty of realization supported by either an

Group had filed a petition against the said demand for which stay has been granted by the
ATE till the methodology for the determination is fixed. Considering the same, currently, the
amount of charges payable is not ascertainable and hence, no provision has been recognized

d) i) Central Electricity Supply Utility of Orissa (CESU) had filed an application to Regional Provident Fund Commissioner,
Bhubaneswar (RPFC) for exemption from applicability of the Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous
Provisions Act, 1952 for which adjudication is pending. CESU had formed its own trust and deposited the employer
and employee’s contribution in the said trust @ 10% of the eligible salary. Although the adjudication for exemption
was pending, RPFC vide its assessment order dated 13th October, 2014 raised a total demand of ₹ 551.62 crore
(₹ 279.39 crore dues for non-remittance of Employer and Employee contribution to RPFC and ₹ 272.23 crore as
interest) on CESU for the period from November, 1997 to December, 2011.The order also contended that CESU is
required to make contribution @12% of the eligible salary instead of 10%. The order of RPFC was challenged by
CESU before the Hon'ble High Court. The Hon'ble High Court, on 18th November, 2014, directed that the impugned
assessment orders shall remain stayed subject to deposit of ₹ 30 crore by CESU with the RPFC. The order of the
Hon'ble High Court was complied with by CESU. The said writ petition is still pending adjudication before the
Hon'ble High Court.
Subsequently, after the subsidiary company (TPCODL) taking over power distribution business from the erstwhile
CESU with effect from 01.06.2020, it has continued to deposit Employer and Employee contribution @ 10 % each
for the erstwhile employees in the contributory trust as the matter is sub judice. However, on 3rd March, 2021 RPFC
issued a notice for inspection to the Group on the PF issue for the period from January 2012 till May 2020 and for the
period from 1st June, 2020.

410 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
Based on a legal opinion, the subsidiary company is of the view that it has a strong case against the demand of
₹ 551.62 crore (November 1997 till December 2011) plus any further demand, if raised by RPFC (January 2012 - May
2020) and accordingly, no provision has been recognized in respect of the same. Further, for the period of operations

Overview
from 1st June, 2020 pertaining to the subsidiary company, it has been decided that employer’s and employee’s
contributions shall be deposited with RPFC and accordingly, the subsidiary company expects that there shall be no
demand payable from 1st June, 2020.

ii) Central Electricity Supply Utility of Orissa (CESU) had entered into agreement with distribution franchisees namely
Riverside Utilities Private Ltd. (‘RUPL’) and Seaside Utilities Private Ltd. (‘SUPL’) on 30th January, 2013. As per the terms
of agreement, franchisees were responsible for carrying out all commercial activities including certain performance
parameters such reduction of AT&C losses, smart metering, minimum capital expenditure, timely collection etc.
However, due to poor performance of RUPL/SUPL and non-compliance of the terms of agreement, erstwhile CESU

Our Emphasis on Value


did not extend the franchisee period. Writ petition was filed by the franchisees before the Hon’ble Orissa High Court
for renewal of existing franchise agreements along with total claim of ₹ 403.98 crore (₹ 301.75 crore by RUPL and
₹ 102.23 crore by SUPL). CESU had filed a counter claim of ₹ 598.89 crore (₹ 396.87 crore against RUPL and ₹ 202.02 crore
against SUPL). The Hon’ble Orissa High Court vide its order dated 27th March, 2019 ordered termination of franchise
agreement and ordered CESU and the franchisees to reconcile the dues. On failure of reconciliation process, the
High Court vide its order dated 19th February, 2021 ordered CESU and franchisee to settle the claims by way of
arbitration proceedings for which Arbitration Tribunal shall be constituted. The matter is currently pending before
Arbitration Tribunal for adjudication.

Based on merits of the matter, the subsidiary Company is of the view that it has a strong case and accordingly, no

provision has been recognized in respect of the same.

e) During the year, the Group has acquired 51 % stake in TP Central Odisha Distribution Ltd. ('TPCODL'), TP Western
Odisha Distribution Ltd. ('TPWODL') and TP Southern Odisha Distribution Ltd. ('TPSODL') to carry out the function of
distribution and retail supply of electricity covering the distribution circles of central, western and southern parts of
Odisha. Pursuant to these acquisition and as per the terms of the vesting order, the Group has issued bank guarantee
to Odisha Electricity Regulatory Commission (‘OERC’) of ₹ 150.00 crore, ₹ 150.00 crore, ₹ 100.00 crore respectively.

f) OERC had issued a request for proposal (RFP) for sale of controlling interest in distribution business of North
Electricity Supply Utility of Orissa. The Group had bid for it and has been identified as the successful bidder and
accordingly the Group issued bank guarantee to OERC of ₹ 150.00 crore.

The Group, in respect of the above mentioned Contingent Liabilities has assessed that it is only possible but not probable
that outflow of economic resources will be required.

Statutory Reports
37. Other Disputes and Settlements
a) With respect to Mundra Thermal Power Plant, the Group is required to comply with ash disposal requirements in
accordance with the requirements of the Environment Clearance (EC) and the relevant notifications issued by the
Ministry of Environment & Forests (MOEF) from time to time. On 12th February, 2020, National Green Tribunal (NGT)
has passed an order prescribing the formula for determination of Environment Compensation for non-compliance. The
order is subject to proceedings pending before the hon’ble Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has granted an Interim
Stay in the matter. On 22nd April, 2021, MOEF has issued a draft notification which allows legacy fly ash to be disposed /
utilized in a phased manner over a period of 10 years. Once the draft notification comes into effect, it would supersede
Financial Statements

all existing notifications and prior orders. The Group has been making concerted efforts for achieving 100% utilisation
of fly ash generated. The Group has, on a prudent basis, recognized a provision of ₹ 21.74 crore (As at 31st March, 2020 -
₹ 4.74 crore) in its financial statements for disposal of past accumulated fly ash based on management’s best assessment
of the expected costs.

b) The Group had obtained 21.65 acres of land through registered lease deed for 33 years for setting up a solar
power plant in Bihar. During the financial year 2018-19, the lease was treated by the Collector, Gaya as illegal for
entering into lease without order of any competent authority, and was cancelled along with recovery of penal

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

37. Other Disputes and Settlements (Contd.)


rent. The Group filed Writ Petition before the Patna High Court against the said Order. The Patna High Court stayed
the operations of the Collectors Order and provided certain time to file the counter affidavit. The Respondent
('State of Bihar') has filed the counter affidavit on February 2019 and now the matter is pending for argument.
The Group is of the view that it has a good case with likelihood of liability or any loss arising out of the said cancellation
being remote. Accordingly, pending settlement of the legal dispute, no adjustment has been made in the financial
statements for the year ended 31st March, 2021.

c) The liability stated in the opening Balance Sheet of one of the subsidiary company as per the Transfer Scheme as on
1st July, 2002 in respect of consumers’ security deposit was ₹ 10.00 crore. The subsidiary company had engaged an
independent agency to validate the sample data in digitized form of consumer security deposit received by the erstwhile
Delhi Vidyut Board (DVB) from its consumers. As per the validation report submitted by this agency the amount of
security deposit received from consumers aggregated to ₹ 66.71 crore. The subsidiary company has been advised that
as per the Transfer Scheme, the liability in excess of ₹ 10.00 crore towards refund of the opening consumer deposits and
interest thereon is not to the account of the Group. Since the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (GNCTD)
was of the view that the aforesaid liability is that of the Group, the matter was referred to Delhi Electricity Regulatory
Commission (DERC). During the year 2007-08, DERC vide its letter dated 23rd April, 2007 conveyed its decision to the
GNCTD upholding the Group’s view. As GNCTD has refused to accept the DERC decision as binding on it, the subsidiary
company has filed a writ petition in the Hon’ble Delhi High Court and the matter was made regular on 24th October,
2011. No stay has been granted by the High Court in the matter for refund of consumer security deposits and payment
of interest thereon.

d) i) The Group supply solar power to TANGEDCO against long term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). As per the said
PPAs, the Group is entitled to receive consideration for all energy units supplied and billed. However, whilst effecting
payments to the Group, TANGEDCO has disputed and is not making payment for energy units supplied and billed in
excess of 19% Capacity Utilisation Factor (CUF) in accordance with its internal circular.

The National Solar Energy Federation of India (NSEFI) has filed the writ petition with Madras High Court challenging
the said circular issued by TANGEDCO on behalf of generators who have commissioned solar power plants and
impacted by the said circular. The Tata Power Company Ltd., ultimate holding company of the group, is also a Member
of NSEFI and thereby party to petition filed by NSEFI. The TNERC has now issued Order dated 22nd December 2020 on
the petition filed by the NSEFI and decided the matter in favour of TANGEDCO. The Group has challenged the ruling
of TNERC at the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (ATE) through NSEFI. Based on legal assessment, the management of
the Group is of the view that the claim of the Group for payment toward units supplied in excess of 19% CUF is entirely
tenable and it is confident of getting a favourable order.

Accordingly, the Group has a trade receivable balance of ₹ 90.85 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 87.92 crore) for such excess
units as on 31st March, 2021. The Group has also recognised a revenue of ₹ 2.93 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹33.20 crore)
for such excess units as on 31st March 2021. Considering signed PPA and its independent legal evaluation, the Group
believes that these amounts are fully recoverable along with interest and no provision has been recognized in the
consolidated financial statements.

ii) Trade Receivables include ₹ 363.57 crore ( 31st March, 2020 - ₹ 567.09 crore ) receivable from TANGEDCO including
₹ 80.17 crore ( 31st March, 2020 - ₹299.79 crore ) relating to bill discounting with recourse and ₹ 90.85 crore (31st March,
2020 ₹ 87.92 crore) pertaining to CUF adjustment as mentioned above. The Group is of the view that these receivables
are fully recoverable with late payment surcharge.

e) The Group entered into long-term Power Purchase Agreements (“PPAs”) of 200 MW wind and solar plant with the
Southern Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh Ltd. (""APSPDCL"" or “APDISCOM”) to supply power that is
valid for a period of 25 years. The Government of Andhra Pradesh (the “GoAP”) issued an order (the “GO”) dated 1st July,
2019 constituting a High Level Negotiation Committee (the “HLNC”) for review and negotiation of tariff for wind and
solar projects in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Pursuant to the GO, APDISCOM issued letters dated 12th July, 2019 to the
Group requesting for revision of tariffs previously agreed as per the PPAs to ₹ 2.44 per unit. Since the Group and other
power producers did not agree to the rate revision, APDISCOM referred the matter to the Andhra Pradesh Electricity
Regulatory Commission (the “APERC”) for revision of tariffs.

412 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
37. Other Disputes and Settlements (Contd.)
The Group had filed a writ petition on 30th July, 2019 before the Andhra Pradesh High Court (“AP High Court”) challenging
the GO and the said letters issued by APDISCOM for renegotiation of tariffs. The AP High Court has issued its order dated
24th September, 2019 whereby it allowed the writ petition. The AP High court also instructed APDISCOM to honour

Overview
pending and future bills but to pay them at a rate of ₹ 2.44 per unit (as against the billed rate). The AP High Court also
stated that this rate is only an interim measure until the matter is resolved by the APERC and suggested the APERC to
conclude this matter within 6 months period. Thereafter, the Group had filed an appeal in AP High Court in front of two
members bench challenging the matter being referred to the APERC. Further, the APERC has deferred the hearing in
view of the case being filed in the AP High Court, till the AP High Court passes an order in the matter.

The Group has now filed an application for implement in Hon'ble Supreme Court (SC) in the SLP of APSPDCL and transfer
petition before the SC from the AP High Court inter alia on the ground of delays in hearing of the matter by the AP High
Court and the financial hardship that has resulted due to delay in payment by APDISCOM.

Our Emphasis on Value


During the year ended 31st March 2021, the Group has received an amount of ₹ 38.34 crore ( 31st March, 2020 -
₹ 112.69 crore) from APDISCOM at the interim rate of ₹ 2.44 per unit as against PPA rates stated above.

The Group has a net block of ₹ 1,142.37 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 1,222.25 crore) and has recognised a revenue of
₹ 174.3 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 174.07 crore) for the year ended 31st March, 2021 and has a trade receivable balance
of ₹ 341.16 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 206.17 crore) as on 31st March, 2021 from sale of electricity against such PPAs.
Considering signed PPA, interim order passed by the AP High Court, and its internal legal evaluation, the management
believes that final order would be in its favour and hence no adjustment has been made in the consolidated financial
statements.

Our Value-creation Paradigm


f) In the previous year, the Group has recognised an expense of ₹ 276.35 crore net of amount recoverable from customers
including adjustment with consumer reserve in relation to Hon'ble Supreme Court's judgement on standby litigation.

Further in the previous year, Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) vide its order dated 30th March,
2020 had allowed the recovery of part of the standby charges amount from the consumers. During the year ended
31st March, 2021, MERC vide its order dated 21st December, 2020, has revised its earlier order and disallowed the recovery
of the said amount. Consequently, the Group has recognized an expense of ₹ 109.00 crore (including carrying cost) and
disclosed as an exceptional item.

g) The Group have acquired private land for setting up solar power plants. In certain cases, these acquisitions have been
challenged on grounds such as unauthorised encroachment, inadequate compensation, seller not entitled to transact
and/or consideration has not been paid to all legal/ beneficial owners. In these cases, the Group has not received any
demand for additional payment and these cases are pending at District Court/High Court Level. The Management

Statutory Reports
believes that the Group has a strong case and outflow of economic resources is not probable.

h) One of the subsidiary company had introduced a Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) for its employees in December 2003,
in response to which initially 1,798 employees were separated. The early retirement of these employees led to a dispute
between the subsidiary company and the Delhi Vidyut Board (DVB) Employees Terminal Benefit Fund, 2002 (‘the Trust’)
with respect to pay-out of retirement benefits that these employees were eligible for. The Trust is of the view that its liability
to pay retiral benefits arises only on the employee attaining the age of superannuation or on death, whichever is earlier.
The subsidiary company filed a writ petition with the Hon’ble Delhi High Court which pronounced its judgement on 2nd
July, 2007 on this issue and provided two options to the Discoms for paying retiral benefits to the Trust. The subsidiary
company chose the option whereby the Discoms were required to pay to the Trust an ‘Additional Contribution’ on
account of premature pay-out by the Trust which shall be computed by an Arbitral Tribunal of Actuaries to be
Financial Statements

appointed within a stipulated period. The matter was further challenged by the Trust before Hon’ble Supreme Court,
however, no interim relief has been granted by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. Till date no Arbitral Tribunal of Actuaries
has been appointed and therefore, no liability has been recorded based on option chosen by the subsidiary company.
While the above referred writ petition was pending, the subsidiary company had already advanced ₹ 77.74 crore to the
Special Voluntary Retirement Scheme Retirees Terminal Benefit Fund, 2004 Trust (SVRS Trust) for payment of retiral dues
to separated employees. In addition to the payment of retiral benefits/residual pension to the SVRS Trust, in pursuant
to the order of the Hon’ble Delhi High Court dated 2nd July, 2007 the subsidiary company also paid interest @ 8%
per annum, ₹ 8.01 crore in the financial year 2008-09 thereby increasing the total contribution to the SVRS Trust to

#Futureready: Empowering customers for tomorrow’s world 413


Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

37. Other Disputes and Settlements (Contd.)


₹ 85.76 crore recognised as recoverable from SVRS Trust. As the subsidiary company was entitled to get reimbursement
against advanced retiral benefit amount on superannuation age, the subsidiary company had recovered/adjusted
₹ 85.47 crore as at 31st March, 2021 (as at 31st March, 2020 ₹ 84.88 crore), leaving a balance recoverable ₹ 0.29 crore as at
31st March, 2021 (as at 31st March, 2020 ₹ 0.88 crore) from the SVRS Trust which includes current portion of ₹ 0.03 crore
(as at 31st March, 2020 ₹ 0.33 crore).
i) In the earlier years, Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission has disallowed certain costs amounting to ₹ 419.00
crore (adjusted upto the current year) (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 359.85 crore) recoverable from consumers in the tariff true up
order. The Group has filed appealed against the said order to Appellate Tribunal for Electricity which is pending for final
disposal.
j) In an earlier year, Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission has disallowed carrying cost and other costs amounting
to ₹ 269.00 crore (31st March, 2020 - ₹ 269.00 crore) which was upheld by the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (ATE). The
Group has filed Special Leave Petition (SLP) against the order of ATE with the Supreme Court which is pending for final
disposal.

38. Earnings Per Share (EPS)


Accounting Policy
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the
weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed
by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Group by the weighted average number of equity shares
considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could
have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted
for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the
outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless
issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for
any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by
the Board of Directors.

# other than investments accounted for Equity Method

420 The Tata Power Company Limited Integrated Annual Report 2020-21
40. Financial Instruments (Contd.)
The management assessed that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, other balances with bank, trade receivables,
loans, finance lease receivables, unbilled revenues, trade payables, other financial assets and liabilities approximate their
carrying amounts largely due to the short term maturities of these instruments.

Overview
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged
in a current transaction between willing parties. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
values.
- Fair value of the quoted bonds, mutual funds, government securities are based on the price quotations near the
reporting date. Fair value of the unquoted equity shares have been estimated using a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF)
model. The valuation requires management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast
cash flows, discount rate, credit risk and volatility. The probabilities of the various estimates within the range can be
reasonably assessed and are used in management's estimate of fair value for those unquoted equity investments.

Our Emphasis on Value


- The fair value of the FVTOCI financial assets are derived from quoted market price in active markets and unobservable
inputs.
- The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally banks and financial
institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward and option contracts
are valued using valuation techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs. The most frequently
applied valuation techniques include forward pricing and swap models using present value calculations. The models
incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, yield
curves of the respective currencies, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies, interest rate curves and
forward rate curves of the underlying currency. All derivative contracts are fully collateralized, thereby, eliminating

Our Value-creation Paradigm


both counterparty and the Group's own non-performance risk. As at 31st March, 2021, the marked-to-market value of
derivative asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk.
- The fair value of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other financial liabilities, as well as other non-current
financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash flow using rates currently available for debt on similar terms,
credit risk and remaining maturities.
- The cost of certain unquoted investments approximate their fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair
value measurements and the cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range.

Financial Statements

Note:
Certain unquoted investments are not held for trading, instead they are held for medium or long term strategic purpose. Upon the application of
Ind AS 109, the Group has chosen to designate these investments in equity instruments as at FVTOCI as the directors believe this provides a more
meaningful presentation for medium and long- term strategic investments, then reflecting changes in fair value immediately in profit or loss.
All gains and losses included in other comprehensive income relate to unlisted shares held at the end of the reporting period and are reported
under "Equity Instruments through Other Comprehensive Income".
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy together with a
quantitative sensitivity analysis as at 31st March, 2021 and 31st March, 2020 are as shown below:

The discount for lack of marketability represents the amount that the Group has determined that market participants would
take into account when pricing the investments.

40.2 Fair value hierarchy


The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either
observable or unobservable and consists of the following three levels:
Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities. This includes quoted equity instruments, government securities, quoted borrowings (fixed rate) and mutual
funds that have quoted price.
Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): Inputs are 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). This includes
derivative financial instruments and unquoted borrowings (fixed and floating rate).
Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): Inputs are not based on observable market data
(unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumptions that
are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on
available market data. This includes unquoted equity shares and contingent consideration receivable.
The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and financial assets
that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis (but fair value disclosures are required) :

40.3 Capital Management & Gearing Ratio


For the purpose of the Group's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and all other equity reserves
attributable to the equity holders of the Group. The primary objective of the Group's capital management is to maximize
the shareholder value.
The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the
requirements of the financial covenants. From time to time, the Group reviews its policy related to dividend payment
to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or fresh issue of shares. The Group monitors capital using gearing ratio,
which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Group’s policy is to keep the gearing ratio between 60% and
80% at consolidated level. The Group includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, less cash and cash

equivalents, excluding discontinued operations as detailed in the notes below.
The Group's capital management is intended to create value for shareholders by facilitating the meeting of its long-term
and short-term goals. Its Capital structure consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in notes below) and total equity.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

40. Financial Instruments (Contd.)


(i) Debt is defined as Non-current borrowings (including current maturities) and Current borrowings (excluding derivative,
financial guarantee contracts and contingent considerations) and interest accrued on Non-current and Current
borrowings.
(ii) Capital is defined as Equity share capital, Unsecured perpetual securities and other equity including reserves and
surplus.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Group’s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it
meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements.
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31st March,
2021 and 31st March, 2020.
40.4 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise borrowings, trade and other payables, financial
guarantee contracts and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Group’s
operations and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Group’s principal financial assets include loans, trade
and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, unbilled receivables, finance lease receivables and
other financial assets that derive directly from its operations. The Group also holds FVTOCI/FVTPL investments and enters
into derivative transactions.
The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s senior management oversees the management
of these risks. The Group’s senior management is supported by a risk committee that reviews the financial risks and
the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Group. The Group’s financial risk activities are governed by
appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with
the Group’s policies and risk objectives. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by specialist
teams that have the appropriate skills, experience and supervision. It is the Group’s policy that no trading in derivatives
for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The risk management policy is approved by the board of directors, which is
summarized below.

40.4.1 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises of three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk. The impact
of equity price risk is not material. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, derivative
financial instruments and FVTOCI investments.

The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31st March, 2021 and 31st March, 2020.

The sensitivity analysis have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest
rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant and on
the basis of hedge designations in place at 31st March, 2021. The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market
variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post-retirement obligations; provisions; and the non-financial assets
and liabilities of foreign operations.

a. Foreign currency risk management


Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes
in foreign exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its operations in international projects
and purchase of coal from Indonesia and elsewhere and overseas borrowings. The results of the Group's operations can
be affected as the rupee appreciates/depreciates against these currencies. The Group enters into derivative financial
instruments such as foreign exchange forward and option contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on
foreign currency exposures.

40. Financial Instruments (Contd.)
When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of being a hedge, the Group negotiates the terms of those derivatives to
match the terms of the hedged exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives cover the period of exposure

b. Interest rate risk management


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes
in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s
long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Group manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings. The
Group’s policy is to keep upto 50% of its borrowings at fixed rates of interest. To manage this, the Group enters into fixed
rate loan, Bonds and interest rate swaps, in which it agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed
and variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount.
(i) Interest rate sensitivity
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on exposure to interest rates for term loans and debentures
at the end of the reporting period and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held
constant throughout the reporting period in case of term loans and debentures that have floating rates.
If the interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower and all the other variables were held constant, the effect on
Interest expense for the respective financial years and consequent effect on Group's profit in that financial year would have
been as below:
₹ crore
As of 31st March, 2021 As of 31st March, 2020
50 bps increase 50 bps decrease 50 bps increase 50 bps decrease
Interest expense on loan (+) ₹ 117.15 (-) ₹ 117.15 (+) ₹ 147.46 (-) ₹ 147.46
Effect on Equity/Profit before tax (-) ₹ 117.15 (+) ₹ 117.15 (-) ₹ 147.46 (+) ₹ 147.46
(ii) Interest rate swap contracts
An interest rate swap is an agreement between two counterparties in which one stream of future interest payments is
exchanged for another based on a specified principal amount. Interest rate swaps usually involve the exchange of a fixed
interest rate for a floating rate, or vice versa, to reduce or increase exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or to obtain a
marginally lower interest rate than would have been possible without the swap. Interest rate swaps are the exchange of one
set of cash flows for another.

40.4.3 Liquidity risk management


The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by
continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

and to optimize the cost of funding, the Group, from time to time, funds its long -term investment from short-term sources.
The short-term borrowings can be rollforward or, if required, can be refinanced from long term borrowings. Hence, the

44. Business Combinations (Contd.)


• Specific disclosure under ‘additional regulatory requirement’such as compliance with approved schemes of arrangements,

and advances to promoters, directors, key managerial personnel (KMP) and related parties, details of benami property

46 Impact of COVID-19
India and other global markets experienced significant disruption in operations resulting from uncertainty caused by the
worldwide coronavirus pandemic. Management believes that there is not much of an impact likely due to this pandemic
on the business of the Group and its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates except that there exists some uncertainty
over impact of COVID-19 on future business performance of its coal mining companies which form part of Mundra CGU
(comprising of investment in companies owning Mundra power plant, coal mines and related infrastructure). Based on
sensitivity analysis, management believes that the said uncertainty is not likely to impact the recoverability of Mundra CGU.
As the situation is still continuously evolving, the eventual impact may be different from the estimates made as of the date
of approval of these financial statements.

47 The Code on Social Security, 2020


The Code on Social Security 2020 ('Code') has been notified in the Official Gazette on 29th September, 2020.The Code is not
yet effective and related rules are yet to be notified. Impact if any of the change will be assessed and recognized in the period

Assurance Certificate

Assurance criteria
The assurance engagement was planned and performed in accordance with the International Federation of
Accountants’ International Standard for Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical
Financial Information (ISAE 3000). Our evidence-gathering procedures were designed to obtain a ‘Limited’
level of assurance (as set out in ISAE 3000) on reporting principles, as well as conformance of sustainability
performance disclosures as per GRI Standards.

What we did to form our conclusions


In order to form our conclusions, we undertook the following key steps:
• Interviews with select key personnel and the core team responsible for the preparation of the Report to
understand the Company’s sustainability vision, mechanism for management of sustainability issues and
engagement with key stakeholders;
• Interactions with the key personnel at the Company’s locations of operations to understand and review
the current processes in place for capturing sustainability performance data;
• Data assurance through desk reviews covering the Company’s corporate office and other operational
locations as mentioned in the ‘Scope of Assurance’ above;
• Review of relevant documents and systems for gathering, analyzing and aggregating sustainability
performance data in the reporting period.
• Review of the Report for detecting, on a test basis, any major anomalies between the data/information
reported in the Report and the relevant source;

Our observations
The Company has demonstrated its commitment to sustainable development by reporting its performance
on various material topics for FY 2020-21. The Company has prepared Report having sustainability data in
accordance with GRI standards (Core). The Report includes a description of the Company’s stakeholder
engagement process, materiality assessment and relevant performance disclosures on the identified
material topics. Areas of further improvement wherever identified have been brought before the attention
of the management of the company. Specific observations have been provided in the management letter
which has been submitted to the company separately. These observations do not affect our conclusion
presented in this statement.

Our conclusion
On the basis of our review scope and methodology, nothing has come to our attention that causes us not to
believe that the data has been presented fairly, in material respects, in keeping with the GRI Standards and
the Company’s reporting principles and criteria.

Our assurance team and independence


Our assurance team, comprising of multidisciplinary professionals, has been drawn from our climate change
and sustainability network and undertakes similar engagements with a number of significant Indian and
international businesses. As an assurance provider, EY is required to comply with the independence
requirements set out in International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) Code of Ethics for Professional
