Ghandhara Nissan Limited
An Illustrious Founder
Fondly known as ‘Bibojee’, General Habibullah Khan Khattak was born on October 17,
1913 in Wana. He was the son of the renowned personality Khan Bahadur Kuli Khan
Khattak. He completed his F.Sc from Islamia College, Peshawar and gave an early
glimpse of his potential when in 1934, he became one of 25 candidates to be selected
from the Subcontinent from the First Course ‘The Pioneers’ at the Indian Military
Academy, Dehraduan.

During his career as a soldier, he rose swiftly through the ranks to become the Chief of
Staff of the Pakistan Army at the young age of 45. He was mentioned in dispatches for
gallantry in the Second World War and was later awarded Sitara-e-Pakistan and the
American Legion of Merit. He retired from the Pakistan Army in December 1959 at the
young age of 46 but instead of resting on his laurels, he soon embarked upon a new
career as an industrialist, which was to bring him even greater fame and respect.

Core Values:
- Perseverance
- Dynamism
- Professionalism

The business empire of General Habibullah was built on the above-mentioned core
values and with his innate knack of identifying sick units and expertly reviving
them he made his Group emerge as one of the fastest growing industrial
conglomerates of Pakistan. A man of vision, General Habibullah developed
an informed insight into Pakistan's economy and was blessed with the Midas
touch, essential for successful entrepreneurship. He is also credited with
introducing the trend of professional management which was subsequently
emulated by other Pakistani business houses. He believed that Human
Resource is the most important and lasting asset of any business.

Philanthropy
The Love of Giving Back
In addition to being a gifted entrepreneur, General Habibullah was
also a great philanthropist who believed in generously giving back
to his country - his expertise, experience and financial resources.
It was in that spirit that he founded the Waqf-e-Kuli Khan (WKK)
in memory of his late father. WKK promotes education and is
a fine example of Corporate Social Responsibility which has
benefitted thousands of deserving students. The General
was also a well-known animal lover, who established The
Pakistan Wildlife Conservation Foundation (PWCF) for
supporting wildlife in Pakistan. General Habibullah
passed away on December 23, 1994 leaving behind a
legacy of dynamic leadership, brilliant foresight and
exceptional business acumen.

STATEMENT OF MATERIAL FACTS UNDER SECTION 134 (3) OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2017

Below statement sets out the material facts concerning the Special Business, given in agenda of the Notice that will be
considered by the members.

change of name.

Chairman’s Review Report
I am presenting the Annual Report 2021-22 and the Audited Financial Statements of the Company for the year
ended June 30, 2022 to our valued shareholders.

Economy at a Glance
The financial year 2021-22 did see a period of normality after nearly two years of the global pandemic after the
government successfully handled the implementation of the vaccinations being administered. The change in the
Government during March, 2022 led to new set of policies and discontinuation of some of the old policies. Rising
commodity prices and a large fiscal deficit have inflated the import bill, putting the country on the verge of a balance
of payments crisis.
The Government has taken measures to curb the current account deficit by restricting import of luxury goods and
controlling the overall import bill of the country. This has resulted in the normalization of overheated economy. This
will support the PKR against USD and will keep the economy stable in the short-term.

Industry outlook
Auto industry of Pakistan has been confronted with its own set of challenges with the rupee depreciation, increased
taxes, and rising fuel prices all weigh on the industry’s outlook. Meanwhile, we have witnessed a tremendous year
indicated by the highest ever sales, especially in the passenger car segment. As per PAMA, sales volumes of auto
industry for Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs) were 5,802 units during the year ended June 30, 2022 as
compared to 3,695 units during the previous year showing a growth of 57%. Similarly, for Light Commercial
Vehicles (LCVs), sales were 17,006 units during the year ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 11,550 units during
the previous year showing a growth of 47%.

Company’s performance
I am pleased to share that our company has earned a profit after-tax of Rs.101 million (after-tax profit of
Rs.131million last year).
During FY-2022, the Company launched the latest generation of Tiggo series SUVs of Chery Automobile Co. Ltd.,
which is the leading automobile export company of China. It offers a perfect fusion of style, luxury, comfort & safety.
The Company commenced the local assembly of Chery Tiggo-4 Pro and Tiggo-8 Pro during March 2022. We are
pleased to announce that the Company received an overwhelming response to the Chery products.

Future Outlook

The Company aims to strive for the optimum use of resources and achieving results that will ensure that its team
are driven to increase sales and production and in turn contribute to the economic betterment of the country.
The outlook of economy in general and particularly the Auto-sector seems exposed to macroeconomic variables
and supply chain challenges in the near future. However, the Company is keen to cater to the changing market
requirements by bringing in right product mix in commercial vehicles segment.
Your management is dedicated towards continued focus on quality improvement, efficiency, cost control in sales
and after sales service to improve its competitiveness and market share.

Acknowledgement

The Company acknowledges the continued support and cooperation of China Dongfeng Motor Industry Import and
Export Co. Limited, Dongfeng Automobile Company Limited (China), Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Corp.,
Limited (China), Renault Trucks S.A.S (France) and Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.

Annual Report‘22
Ghandhara Nissan Limited

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors' Report Thereon
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Annual Report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditors' report
thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement
of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and the
requirements of Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017) and for such internal control as management
determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or
to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Board of directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit
evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,
as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override
of internal control.
. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

39
. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events
or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to
the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to
cease to continue as a going concern.
. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events
in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the board of directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the board of directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the board of directors, we determine those matters that were of
most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes
public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter
should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
Based on our audit, we further report that in our opinion:
a) proper books of account have been kept by the Company as required by the Companies Act, 2017
(XIX of 2017);
b) the statement of financial position, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income,
the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows together with the notes thereon
have been drawn up in conformity with the Companies Act, 2017 (XIX of 2017) and are in
agreement with the books of account and returns;
c) investments made, expenditure incurred and guarantees extended during the year were for the
purpose of the Company’s business; and
d) no Zakat was deductible at source under the Zakat and Ushr Ordinance, 1980 (XVIII of 1980).
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report is Osman Hameed
Chaudhri.

Notes to the Financial Statements


FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022

1. THE COMPANY AND ITS OPERATIONS



Ghandhara Nissan Limited (the Company) was incorporated on August 8, 1981 in Pakistan as a
private limited company and subsequently converted into a public limited company on May 24, 1992.
The Company is a subsidiary of Bibojee Services (Private) Limited (BSL). The registered office of the
Company is situated at F-3, Hub Chowki Road, S.I.T.E., Karachi. Its manufacturing facilities are located
at Port Qasim, Karachi and regional offices in Lahore and Rawalpindi. The Company’s shares are listed
on Pakistan Stock Exchange Limited.

The principal business of the Company is assembly / progressive manufacturing of vehicles including
JAC Trucks and Chery SUVs, import and sale of parts / Nissan, Dongfeng and Renault vehicles in
completely built-up condition and assembly of other vehicles under contract agreement.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting and reporting standards
as applicable in Pakistan. The accounting and reporting standards applicable in Pakistan comprise:
- International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) as notified under the Companies Act, 2017;
- Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Pakistan as notified under the Companies Act, 2017; and
- Provision of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017.
Where provision of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017 differ from the IFRS, the
provision of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017 have been followed.

2.2 Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Pakistan Rupees which is the functional currency of the
Company and figures are rounded off to the nearest thousand of rupees unless otherwise specified.

2.3 New and amended standards and interpretations

2.3.1 Standards and amendments to approved accounting standards effective in current year

New and amended standards mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning July 1, 2021:
(a) Amendments to IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ is applicable on accounting periods beginning on or after June 1,
2020 and April 1, 2021. Under IFRS 16, rent concessions often met the definition of a lease modification,
unless they were envisaged in the original lease agreement. The amendment exempts lessees from
having to consider individual lease contracts to determine whether rent concessions occurring as a
direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic are lease modifications and allows lessees to account
for such rent concessions as if they were not lease modifications. It applies to covid-19-related rent
concessions that reduce lease payments due on or before June 30, 2021. The Board has extended
the practical expedient by 12 months – i.e. permitting lessees to apply it to rent concessions for which
any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before June 30, 2022. This
optional exemption gives timely relief to lessees and enables them to continue providing information
about their leases that is useful to investors. The amendment does not affect lessors.

The other new standards, amendments to published accounting and reporting standards and
interpretations that are mandatory in Pakistan for the financial year beginning on July 1, 2021 are
considered not to be relevant or to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial reporting
and operations.
48
Annual Report‘22
2.3.2 Standards, amendments to approved accounting standards and interpretations that are not yet
effective and have not been early adopted by the Company

The following new standards and amendments to approved accounting standards are not effective for
the financial year beginning on July 1, 2021 and have not been early adopted by the Company:

(a) Amendments to IAS 37 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’ is applicable for
accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. Under IAS 37, a contract is ‘onerous’ when
the unavoidable costs of meeting the contractual obligations – i.e. the lower of the costs of fulfilling the
contract and the costs of terminating it – outweigh the economic benefits. The amendments clarify that
the ‘costs of fulfilling a contract’ comprise both the incremental costs – e.g. direct labour and materials;
and an allocation of other direct costs – e.g. an allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of
property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract. The amendment is not expected to have
material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(b)
Amendment to IAS 16 ‘Property, plant and Equipment’ is applicable on accounting periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2022. The amendments prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of
property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is
preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognise such sales proceeds and
related cost in profit or loss. The amendments apply retrospectively, but only to items of PPE made
available for use on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements
in which the company first applies the amendment. The amendment not expected to have material
impact on the Company’s financial statements.

(c)
Amendment to IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ is applicable on accounting periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Under existing IAS 1 requirements, companies classify a
liability as current when they do not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at
least twelve months after the end of the reporting period. As part of this amendment, the requirement
for a right to be unconditional has been removed and instead, the amendments requires that a right to
defer settlement must have substance and exist at the end of the reporting period.

(d)
Amendment to IAS 1, ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ is applicable on accounting periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The amendments includes requiring companies to disclose their
material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies, clarifying that accounting
policies related to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions are themselves immaterial and
as such need not be disclosed and also clarifying that not all accounting policies that relate to material
transactions, other events or conditions are themselves material to a company’s financial statements.

(e) Amendments to IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ will be
applicable on accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The International Accounting
Standards Board (the Board) has issued amendments to end diversity in treatment of accounting
estimates and clarified how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes
in accounting estimates, with a primary focus on the definition of and clarifications on accounting
estimates. Developing an accounting estimate includes both selecting a measurement technique
(estimation or valuation technique) – e.g. an estimation technique used to measure a loss allowance
for expected credit losses when applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments; and – choosing the inputs
to be used when applying the chosen measurement technique – e.g. the expected cash outflows
for determining a provision for warranty obligations when applying IAS 37 ‘Provisions, Contingent
Liabilities and Contingent Assets’. The effects of changes in such inputs or measurement techniques
are changes in accounting estimates.

(f) Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Income taxes’ will be applicable on accounting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 2023. The amendments narrow the scope of the initial recognition exemption (IRE) so
that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. As a
result, companies will need to recognise a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability for temporary
differences arising on initial recognition of a lease and a decommissioning provision.

There are a number of other standards, amendments and interpretations to the published standards
that are not yet effective and are also not relevant to the Company and, therefore, have not been
presented here.

Ghandhara Nissan Limited
3. BASIS OF MEASUREMENT

3.1 These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for certain
classes of property, plant and equipment which have been included at revalued amounts and provision
for gratuity which is carried at present value of defined benefit obligation net of fair value of plan assets.

3.2 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards requires
management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting
policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

The areas where various assumptions and estimates are significant to the Company’s financial
statements or where judgment was exercised in application of accounting policies are as follows:

(i) Estimate of useful lives and residual values of property, plant & equipment and intangible assets
(notes 4.1 and 4.2)

(ii) Stock-in-trade (note 4.8)

(iii) Provision for expected credit losses (note 4.9)

(iv) Provision for staff benefits (note 4.14)

(v) Provision for warranty (note 4.16)

(vi) Provision for taxation (note 4.18)

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out
below. These polices have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

4.1 Property, plant and equipment

4.1.1 Operating fixed assets

Owned assets

Operating fixed assets except for freehold land, building on freehold land and plant & machinery are
stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Freehold land is stated at
revalued amount and building on freehold land and plant & machinery are stated at revalued amounts
less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition
of the asset.

Subsequent cost

Subsequent cost are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to
the entity and its cost can be reliably measured. Cost incurred to replace a component of an item of
operating fixed assets is capitalised and the asset so replaced is retired from use. Normal repairs and
maintenance are charged to the statement of during the period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

Depreciation on all items of operating fixed assets other than freehold land is charged to statement
of profit or loss applying the reducing balance method at the rates stated in note 5.1. Depreciation on
additions to operating fixed assets is charged from the month in which an asset is acquired or capitalised
while no depreciation is charged for the month in which the asset is disposed-off.

50
Annual Report‘22
The depreciation method and useful lives of items of operating fixed assets are reviewed periodically
and altered if circumstances or expectations have changed significantly. Any change is accounted for
as a change in accounting estimate by changing depreciation charge for the current and future periods.

Disposal

Gains or losses on disposal or retirement of fixed assets are determined as the difference between the
sale proceeds and the carrying amounts of assets and are included in the statement of profit or loss.

Revaluation of assets

Revaluation is carried out with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of assets does
not differ materially from the fair value. Any Surplus on revaluation of fixed assets is recognised in other
comprehensive income and presented as a separate component of equity as “Surplus on revaluation of
fixed assets”, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously
recognised in statement of profit or loss, in which case the increase is credited to statement of profit or
loss to the extent of the decrease previously charged. Any decrease in carrying amount arising on the
revaluation of operating fixed assets is charged to statement of profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds
the balance, if any, held in the revaluation surplus on operating fixed assets relating to a previous
revaluation of that asset. The revaluation reserve is not available for distribution to the Company’s
shareholders.

4.1.2 Right of use assets

The Company generally leases vehicles for his employees and own use. At the inception of a contract, the
Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease based on whether the contract conveys
the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease
term for vehicle is normally for five years.

Leases are recognised as right of use assets and corresponding liabilities at the date at which the
leased assets are available for use by the Company.

The lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments at the
commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Lease payment includes
principle along with interest. The lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate.

Right of use assets are initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liabilities adjusted for
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred
and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying
asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentive received. The right of use assets are
depreciated on reducing balance method. The carrying amount of the right of use asset is reduced by
impairment losses, if any. At transition, the Company recognised right of use assets equal to the present
value of lease payments.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a
straight-line basis as an expense in statement of profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease
term of 12 months or less.

Impairment

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that operating fixed assets
may be impaired. If such indication exists, the carrying amounts of such assets are reviewed to assess
whether they are recorded in excess of their recoverable amount. Where carrying values exceed the
respective recoverable amount, assets are written down to their recoverable amounts and the resulting
impairment loss is taken to statement of profit or loss except for impairment loss on revalued assets,
which is adjusted against related revaluation surplus to the extent that the impairment loss does not
exceed the surplus on revaluation of that asset.

51
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
4.1.3 Capital work-in-progress

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less identified impairment loss, if any. All expenditure connected
with specific assets incurred during installation and construction period are carried under capital work-
in-progress. These are transferred to specific assets as and when assets are available for use.

4.2 Intangible assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment loss, if any.

Cost associated with developing or maintaining computer software programs are recognised as an
expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique software products
controlled by the Company and will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond
one year, are recognised as intangible assets. Direct costs include staff cost, costs of the software
development team and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

Subsequent expenditure

Expenditure which enhance or extend the performance of computer software programs beyond their
original specifications are recognised as capital improvement and added to the original cost of the
software.

Amortisation

Intangible assets are amortised using the reducing balance method at the rate stated in note 6.

4.3 Non current assets held for sale

Non current assets are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered
principally through a sale transaction rather than continuing use and sale is considered highly probable.
They are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell.

4.4 Financial assets

4.4.1 Classification

The Company has classified its financial assets into following categories: financial assets at amortised
cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income. The financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on the business
model used for managing the financial assets and contractual terms of the cash flows.

(a) Financial assets at amortised cost

A financial asset shall be classified as financial asset at amortised cost if both of the following conditions
are met:

- the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold 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.

(b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

The fair value through other comprehensive income classification is mandatory for certain debt
instrument assets unless the option to classify as fair value through profit or loss is taken.

If an equity investment is not held for trading, an entity can make an irrevocable election at initial
recognition to measure it at fair value through other comprehensive income with only dividend income
recognised in statement of profit or loss.

52
Annual Report‘22
(c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A debt instrument can be classified as a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss if doing so
eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise
arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains or losses on them on different bases.

All equity instruments are to be classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, except
for those equity instruments for which the Company has elected to present value changes in other
comprehensive income.

4.4.2 Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date on which
the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value
plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial
assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value, and transaction
costs are expensed in the statement of profit or loss. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights
to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Company has
transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

After initial recognition, an entity shall measure a financial asset at fair value or amortised cost.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss’ category are presented in the statement of profit or loss within ‘Other income / other expenses’ in
the period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as part of ‘Other income’ when the Company’s right to
receive payments is established.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income’ category are recognised in other comprehensive income with only dividend
income recognised in statement of profit or loss.

4.5 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognised at the time when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less directly
attributable transactions costs, if any, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective
interest method unless financial liabilities are held for trading, in which case it is required to be measured
at fair value through profit or loss or where entity elects to measure at financial liability, under fair value
option.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or
expired. Where 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 a derecognition of original liability and recognition of a new liability and the
difference in respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

4.6 Off-setting of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial
position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an
intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally
enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course
of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counter party.

4.7 Stores, spares and loose tools

Stores, spares and loose tools are stated at the cost which is based on weighted average cost less
provision for obsolescence, if any. Items in transit are stated at cost comprising of invoice value plus
other charges thereon accumulated up to the reporting date.

53
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
4.8 Stock-in-trade

These are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of various classes of stock-in-trade
is determined as follows:

Stock category Valuation method

Complete Knock Down Kits (CKD) Specific cost identification


Complete Built-up Units (CBU) Specific cost identification
Local raw materials At cost on weighted average basis.
Work-in-process and finished goods At cost which comprises of raw materials,
import incidentals, direct labour and
appropriate portion of manufacturing
overheads.
Stock-in-transit At invoice price plus all charges paid
thereon up to the reporting date.

Net realisable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs
necessary to be incurred in order to make the sale.

4.9 Trade debts and other receivables and related impairment

Trade debts and other receivables are classified as financial assets at amortised cost according to
IFRS 9.

Trade debts are initially recognised at original invoice amount which is the fair value of the consideration
to be received in future and subsequently measured at cost less provision for doubtful debts. The
Company uses simplified approach for measuring the expected credit losses for all trade and other
receivables including contract assets based on lifetime expected credit losses. The Company has
estimated the credit losses using a provision matrix where trade receivables are grouped based on
different customer attributes along with historical, current and forward looking assumptions. Debts
considered irrecoverable are written off.

4.10 Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are
not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities outstanding for
more than 12 months as at the reporting date, in which case, they are classified as non-current assets.

4.11 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the statement of financial position at amortised cost. For the
purpose of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents comprise of balances with banks and cash
in hand.

4.12 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recognised at their face value.

4.13 Mark-up bearing loans and borrowings

Mark-up bearing loans and borrowings are recorded at the proceeds received. Finance charges are
accounted for on accrual basis.

54
Annual Report‘22
4.14 Staff benefits

4.14.1 Defined benefit plan



The Company operates funded gratuity scheme which defines the amount of benefit that an employee
will receive on retirement subject to minimum qualifying period of service under the scheme. The
amount of retirement benefit is usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service
and salary. Provision for gratuity is made annually to cover obligation under the scheme in accordance
with the actuarial recommendations. Latest actuarial valuation was conducted on June 30, 2022 on
the basis of the projected unit credit method by an independent Actuary. The liability recognised in
the statement of financial position in respect of defined benefit plan is the present value of the defined
benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets.

immediately, with a charge or credit to other comprehensive income in the periods in which they occur.
Past-service cost, if any, are recognised immediately in income.

at the rate of 8.33% of the basic salary and cost of living allowance. The assets of the fund are held
separately under the control of trustees.

4.15 Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are stated at their cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid
in future for goods and services, whether or not billed to the Company.

under warranty at the reporting date, and recognises the estimated product warranty costs in statement

recognised.

4.17 Research and development cost

4.18 Taxation

made in previous years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years and deferred
tax.

Current

55
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
Deferred

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method in respect of temporary differences arising
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted
by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the
deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax
assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

4.19 Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result
of past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made. Provisions are
reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

Contingent assets are not recognised and are also not disclosed unless an inflow of economic benefits
is probable and contingent liabilities are not recognised and are disclosed unless the probability of an
outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.

4.20 Revenue recognition

The Company recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers
in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange
for those good and services. The Company recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle
by applying the following steps:

– Identify the contract with a customer


– Identify the performance obligations in the contract
– Determine the transaction price
– Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
– Recognise revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

The Company sales locally assemble heavy & light commercial vehicles and their parts. Revenue from
sale of goods is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation (at a point of time) by
transferring promised goods to customer being when the goods are dispatched to customers. Income
from different sources other than above is recognised on the following basis:

– Return on bank deposits, term deposit receipts and scrap sales is accounted for on accrual basis.
– Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.

4.21 Borrowing cost

Borrowing cost are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred except where
such costs are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset in
which case such costs are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset.

56
Annual Report‘22
4.22 Government grants

Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that the
grant will be received and the Company will comply with all conditions of the grant. The benefit of a
government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant. Government
grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the statement of profit or loss over the period
necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

4.23 Foreign currency transactions and translation

The foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of transactions. The closing balance of non-monetary items is included at the
exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction and monetary items are translated using the
exchange rate prevailing on the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the
settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in statement of profit or loss with other
income / other operating expenses.

4.24 Impairment loss

The carrying amounts of the Company’s assets are reviewed at each reporting date to identify
circumstances indicating occurrence of impairment loss or reversal of provisions for impairment losses.
If any indications exist, the recoverable amounts of such assets are estimated and impairment losses or
reversals of impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Reversal of impairment
loss is restricted to the original cost of the asset.

4.25 Segment reporting

Segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes by
the Chief Operating Decision Maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the
performance of the operating segments. On the basis of its internal reporting structure, the Company
considers itself to be a single reportable segment.

4.26 Earnings per share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic
EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

Discount rate 1.00% 182,122 218,358

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 change 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 defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method
at the end of reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the gratuity liability recognised
within the statement of financial position.
The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change
compared to the previous period.
26.4.9 Based on actuary’s advice, the expected charge to statement of profit or loss for the year ending
June 30, 2023 amounts to Rs.14,482 thousand.

41. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

41.1 Financial risk factors

The Company has exposures to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

- credit risk;
- liquidity risk; and
- market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk).

The Company overall risk management program focuses on having cost effective funding as well as
to manage financial risk to minimize earnings volatility and provide maximum return to shareholders.
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and overview of Company’s risk
management frame work. The Board is also responsible for developing and monitoring the Company’s
risk management policies.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the risk of financial loss being caused if counterparty fails to perform as
contracted or discharge an obligation.

Credit risk primarily arises from long term loans, long term deposits, due from Subsidiary Company,
trade debts, loans and advances, other receivables, accrued interest / mark-up, short term investment
and bank balances. To manage exposure to credit risk in respect of trade debts, management performs
credit reviews taking into account the customer’s financial position, past experience and other relevant
factors. Where considered necessary, advance payments are obtained. Credit risk on bank balances
and margin held with banks is limited as the counter parties are banks with reasonably crediting
ratings.

The maximum exposure to credit risk as at June 30, 2022 along with comparative is tabulated
below:
2022 2021
(Rupees in ‘000)

Long term loans 4,754 5,834

Annual Report‘22
(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty, in meeting obligation associated with
financial liabilities. The Company’s approach is to ensure, as far as possible, to always have sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining
sufficient cash and cash equivalent and ensuring the availability of adequate credit facilities. The
Company’s treasury department aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit
lines available.

The table below analyses the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based
on the remaining period at the reporting date to contractual maturity dates. The amounts disclosed
in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows:

(c) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates
and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.
The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within
acceptable parameters while optimising the return.

Foreign exchange risk



Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument shall
fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange
risk on import of raw materials, stores & spares and commission income denominated in U.S. Dollar,
Euro and Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB). The Company’s exposure is as follows:
Rupees Euro U.S. Dollar RMB
June 30, 2022 (Rupees in ‘000)
Trade and other payables 560,037 5 78 17,548

June 30, 2021


Trade and other payables 126,188 24 42 4,645

U.S. Dollar to Rupee 206.00 158.30
Euro to Rupee 215.79 188.71

Sensitivity analysis

At June 30, 2022, if Rupee had strengthened by 5% against RMB, Dollar and Euro with all other variables
held constant, profit before taxation for the year would have been higher/ (lower) by the amount shown
below mainly as a result of net foreign exchange gain / (loss) on translation of net financial liabilities.

Effect on profit for the year 2022 2021


(Rupees in ‘000)
RMB to Rupee 27,139 5,751
U.S. Dollar to Rupee 807 332
Euro to Rupee 56 226
28,002 6,309
Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of change in market interest rates.

Majority of the interest rate risk of the Company arises from short term borrowings from banks, due from
Subsidiary Company, short term investment and balances held with banks. At the reporting date the
profile of the Company’s interest bearing financial instruments is as follows:
2022 2021
(Rupees in ‘000)
Fixed rate instruments - financial assets
Bank balances 1,990,764 983,427

Variable rate instruments


Financial assets

Financial liabilities
Long term borrowings 1,103,699 155,497
Short term borrowings 93,765 100,000
Liabilities against assets subject to finance lease 63,422 86,786
1,260,886 342,283
Sensitivity analysis

At June 30, 2022, if the interest rates on the Company’s variable rate instruments had been 1% higher
/ (lower) with all other variables held constant, profit before tax for the year would have been Rs.4,639
thousand (2021: Rs.2,070 thousand) lower / higher mainly as a result of net higher / (lower) interest income.

Price risk

Price risk represents the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from foreign exchange risk or interest rate
risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its
issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market.

41.2 Fair value of financial assets and liabilities


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. Underlying the definition of fair value
is the presumption that the Company is going concern and there is no intention or requirement to curtail
materially the scale of its operation or to undertake a transaction on adverse terms.

78
Annual Report‘22
The carrying values of all financial assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements are a
reasonable approximation of their fair values.

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different
levels have been defined as follows:

- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities [Level 1].

- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) [Level 2].

- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable
inputs) [Level 3].

There were no transfers amongst the levels during the current and preceding year. The Company’s
policy is to recognise transfer into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the
reporting periods.

Valuation techniques used to determine fair values

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market
prices at the reporting date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly
available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and
those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.
These instruments are included in Level 1.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by
using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data
where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs
required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument
is included in Level 3.

Directors’ Report on
Consolidated Financial Statements
The directors are pleased to present their report together with consolidated financial statements of
Ghandhara Nissan Limited and its subsidiary Ghandhara DF (Pvt.) Limited for the year ended 30th
June, 2022.

The economic outlook looks dismal in the light of global and domestic uncertainties together with
historic flooding in Pakistan. This has deteriorated the export-oriented sectors and will resultantly
further dent the FOREX position.

The Government has tightened the imports to control the current account deficit. This will bring the
economy into comparatively stable state and eventually support the PKR against USD.

The financial results for the year ended June 30, 2022 are summarized below:

2022 2021
(Rupees in ‘000)
Revenue 6,381,609 4,413,360
Gross Profit 560,641 574,327
Operating Profit 259,427 242,087
Profit after Tax 280,667 126,778
Earnings per share (Rs.) 4.92 2.22

Going forward, the Company aims to capitalize on the opportunities offered by the market through
expanding its product line-up.

93
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors' Report Thereon
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Annual Report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditors' report
thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do
not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there
is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and the Board of Directors for the Consolidated Financial
Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with the accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan and
Companies Act, 2017 and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable
the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to
liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue
an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but
is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and
are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial
statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs as applicable in Pakistan, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.
. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

94
Annual Report‘22
Ghandhara Nissan Limited

. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions
that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a
material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in
a manner that achieves fair presentation.

. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible
for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the Board of Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify
during our audit.
We also provide the Board of Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Board of Directors, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not
be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected
to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report is Osman Hameed Chaudhri.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022

1. THE GROUP AND ITS OPERATIONS



1.1 The Group consists of Ghandhara Nissan Limited (the Holding Company) and Ghandhara DF (Private)
Limited (the Subsidiary Company).

1.2 Ghandhara Nissan Limited



Ghandhara Nissan Limited (the Holding Company) was incorporated on August 8, 1981 in Pakistan
as a private limited company and subsequently converted into a public limited company on May 24,
1992. The registered office of the Holding Company is situated at F-3, Hub Chowki Road, S.I.T.E.,
Karachi. Its manufacturing facilities are located at Port Qasim, Karachi and regional offices in Lahore
and Rawalpindi. The Holding Company’s shares are listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange Limited. Bibojee
Services (Private) Limited (BSL) is the ultimate holding company of the Group.

The principal business of the Company is assembly / progressive manufacturing of vehicles including
JAC Trucks and Chery SUVs, import and sale of parts / Nissan, Dongfeng and Renault vehicles in
completely built-up condition and assembly of other vehicles under contract agreement.

1.3 Ghandhara DF (Private) Limited



Ghandhara DF (Private) Limited (the Subsidiary Company) was incorporated on June 25, 2013 in
Pakistan as a private limited company. The registered office of the Subsidiary Company is situated at
F-3, Hub Chowki Road, S.I.T.E., Karachi. It has outsourced assembly of the vehicles to the Holding
Company.

The Subsidiary Company has cooperation agreement with DongFeng Commercial Vehicles Limited
dated December 11, 2013 as well as ‘Motor Vehicles & Related Products Distribution’ agreements with
Wuhan DongFeng Foreign Trade Company Limited (a subsidiary company of DongFeng Automobile
Company Limited) dated January 24, 2014.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

2.1 Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting and
reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan. The accounting and reporting standards applicable in
Pakistan comprise:

- International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) as notified under the Companies Act, 2017;

- Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Pakistan as notified under the Companies Act, 2017; and

- Provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017.



Where provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017 differ from the IFRS, the
provisions of and directives issued under the Companies Act, 2017 have been followed.

2.2 Basis of consolidation



These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Holding Company and
its Subsidiary Company. The Holding Company’s direct interest in the Subsidiary Company is 99.99%
as at June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021.

104
Annual Report‘22

Subsidiary is an entity over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies
generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one half of the voting rights. The existence
and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when
assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Further, the Group also considers whether:

- it has power to direct the relevant activities of the subsidiary;


- is exposed to variable returns from the subsidiary; and


- decision making power allows the Group to affects its variable returns from the subsidiary.

Subsidiary is fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and is de-
recognized from the date the control ceases.

Inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses on transactions between group companies
are eliminated. Profits and losses (unrealized) are also eliminated.

2.3 Transactions and non-controlling interests



The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control as
transactions with equity owners of the Group. The difference between fair value of any consideration
paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in
equity. Gains or losses on disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

2.4 Functional and presentation currency



These consolidated financial statements are presented in Pakistan Rupees which is the functional
currency of the Group and figures are rounded off to the nearest thousand of rupees unless otherwise
specified.

2.5 Changes in accounting standards and interpretations

2.5.1 Standards and amendments to approved accounting standards effective in current year
New and amended standards mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning July 1, 2021:

(a) Amendments to IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ is applicable on accounting periods beginning on or after June
1, 2020 and April 1, 2021. Under IFRS 16, rent concessions often met the definition of a lease
modification, unless they were envisaged in the original lease agreement. The amendment exempts
lessees from having to consider individual lease contracts to determine whether rent concessions
occurring as a direct consequence of the covid-19 pandemic are lease modifications and allows
lessees to account for such rent concessions as if they were not lease modifications. It applies to
covid-19-related rent concessions that reduce lease payments due on or before June 30, 2021. The
Board has extended the practical expedient by 12 months – i.e. permitting lessees to apply it to rent
concessions for which any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or
before June 30, 2022. This optional exemption gives timely relief to lessees and enables them to
continue providing information about their leases that is useful to investors. The amendment does
not affect lessors.

The other new standards, amendments to published accounting and reporting standards and
interpretations that are mandatory in Pakistan for the financial year beginning on July 1, 2021 are
considered not to be relevant or to have any significant effect on the Group’s financial reporting and
operations.

2.5.2 Standards, amendments to approved accounting standards and interpretations that are not yet
effective and have not been early adopted by the Group

The following new standards and amendments to approved accounting standards are not effective for
the financial year beginning on July 1, 2021 and have not been early adopted by the Group:

(a) Amendments to IAS 37 ‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’ is applicable for
accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. Under IAS 37, a contract is ‘onerous’ when
the unavoidable costs of meeting the contractual obligations – i.e. the lower of the costs of fulfilling

105
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
the contract and the costs of terminating it – outweigh the economic benefits. The amendments
clarify that the ‘costs of fulfilling a contract’ comprise both the incremental costs – e.g. direct labour
and materials; and an allocation of other direct costs – e.g. an allocation of the depreciation charge
for an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract. The amendment is not
expected to have material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
(b) Amendment to IAS 16 ‘Property, plant and Equipment’ is applicable on accounting periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2022. The amendments prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of
property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is
preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, a company will recognise such sales proceeds and
related cost in profit or loss. The amendments apply retrospectively, but only to items of property,
plant and equipment made available for use on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented
in the financial statements in which the company first applies the amendment. The amendment not
expected to have material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
(c)
Amendment to IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ is applicable on accounting periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Under existing IAS 1 requirements, companies classify a
liability as current when they do not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability
for at least twelve months after the end of the reporting period. As part of this amendment, the
requirement for a right to be unconditional has been removed and instead, the amendments requires
that a right to defer settlement must have substance and exist at the end of the reporting period.
(d) Amendment to IAS 1, ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’ is applicable on accounting periods
beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The amendments includes requiring companies to disclose
their material accounting policies rather than their significant accounting policies, clarifying that
accounting policies related to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions are themselves
immaterial and as such need not be disclosed and also clarifying that not all accounting policies that
relate to material transactions, other events or conditions are themselves material to a company’s
financial statements.
(e) Amendments to IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’ will
be applicable on accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The International
Accounting Standards Board (the Board) has issued amendments to end diversity in treatment
of accounting estimates and clarified how companies should distinguish changes in accounting
policies from changes in accounting estimates, with a primary focus on the definition of and
clarifications on accounting estimates. Developing an accounting estimate includes both selecting a
measurement technique (estimation or valuation technique) – e.g. an estimation technique used to
measure a loss allowance for expected credit losses when applying IFRS 9 Financial Instruments;
and – choosing the inputs to be used when applying the chosen measurement technique – e.g. the
expected cash outflows for determining a provision for warranty obligations when applying IAS 37
‘Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets’. The effects of changes in such inputs or
measurement techniques are changes in accounting estimates.
(f) Amendments to IAS 12, ‘Income taxes’ will be applicable on accounting periods beginning on or
after January 1, 2023. The amendments narrow the scope of the initial recognition exemption (IRE)
so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences.
As a result, companies will need to recognise a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability for
temporary differences arising on initial recognition of a lease and a decommissioning provision.
There are a number of other standards, amendments and interpretations to the published standards
that are not yet effective and are also not relevant to the Group and, therefore, have not been
presented here.

3. BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
3.1 These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except
for certain classes of property, plant and equipment which have been included at revalued amounts,
certain financial assets carried at fair value and provision for gratuity which is carried at present value of
defined benefit obligation net of fair value of plan assets.
3.2 The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with approved accounting standards
requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of
accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results
may differ from these estimates.

106
Annual Report‘22

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
The areas where various assumptions and estimates are significant to the Group’s financial statements
or where judgment was exercised in application of accounting policies are as follows:

(i) Estimate of useful lives and residual values of property, plant & equipment and intangible assets
(notes 4.1 and 4.2)

(ii) Stock-in-trade (note 4.8)



(iii) Provision for expected credit losses (note 4.9)

(iv) Provision for staff benefits (note 4.14)

(v) Provision for warranty (note 4.16)

(vi) Provision for taxation (note 4.18)

4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements
are set out below. These polices have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless
otherwise stated.

4.1 Property, plant and equipment



4.1.1 Operating fixed assets

Owned assets

Operating fixed assets except for freehold land, building on freehold land and plant & machinery including
assembly jigs are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Freehold land
is stated at revalued amount and building on freehold land and plant & machinery including assembly
jigs are stated at revalued amounts less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditure that is
directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

Subsequent cost

Subsequent cost are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to
the entity and its cost can be reliably measured. Cost incurred to replace a component of an item of
operating fixed assets is capitalised and the asset so replaced is retired from use. Normal repairs and
maintenance are charged to the consolidated profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation

Depreciation on all items of operating fixed assets other than freehold land is charged to profit or loss
applying the reducing balance method at the rates stated in note 5.1. Depreciation on additions to
operating fixed assets is charged from the month in which an asset is acquired or capitalised while no
depreciation is charged for the month in which the asset is disposed-off.

The depreciation method and useful lives of items of operating fixed assets are reviewed periodically
and altered if circumstances or expectations have changed significantly. Any change is accounted for
as a change in accounting estimate by changing depreciation charge for the current and future periods.

Disposal

Gains or losses on disposal or retirement of fixed assets are determined as the difference between the
sale proceeds and the carrying amounts of assets and are included in the consolidated profit or loss.

107
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
Revaluation of assets

Revaluation is carried out with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of assets does
not differ materially from the fair value. Any Surplus on revaluation of fixed assets is recognised in other
comprehensive income and presented as a separate component of equity as “Surplus on revaluation of
fixed assets”, except to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease for the same asset previously
recognised in profit or loss, in which case the increase is credited to profit or loss to the extent of the
decrease previously charged. Any decrease in carrying amount arising on the revaluation of operating
fixed assets is charged to profit or loss to the extent that it exceeds the balance, if any, held in the
revaluation surplus on operating fixed assets relating to a previous revaluation of that asset. The
revaluation reserve is not available for distribution to the Group’s shareholders.

4.1.2 Right of use assets

The Group generally leases vehicles for his employees and own use. At the inception of a contract, the
Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease based on whether the contract conveys the
right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease
term for vehicle is normally for five years.

Leases are recognised as right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities at the date at which the
leased assets are available for use by the Group.

The lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments at the
commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. Lease payment includes
principle along with interest. The lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liabilities adjusted for
any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred
and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying
asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentive received. The right-of-use assets are
depreciated on reducing balance method. The carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced by
impairment losses, if any. At transition, the Company recognised right of use assets equal to the present
value of lease payments.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a
straight-line basis as an expense in statement of profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease
term of 12 months or less.

Impairment

The Group assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indication that operating fixed assets
may be impaired. If such indication exists, the carrying amounts of such assets are reviewed to assess
whether they are recorded in excess of their recoverable amount. Where carrying values exceed the
respective recoverable amount, assets are written down to their recoverable amounts and the resulting
impairment loss is taken to consolidated profit or loss except for impairment loss on revalued assets,
which is adjusted against related revaluation surplus to the extent that the impairment loss does not
exceed the surplus on revaluation of that asset.

4.1.3 Capital work-in-progress

Capital work-in-progress is stated at cost less identified impairment loss, if any. All expenditure connected
with specific assets incurred during installation and construction period are carried under capital work-
in-progress. These are transferred to specific assets as and when assets are available for use.

4.2 Intangible assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment loss, if any.

Cost associated with developing or maintaining computer software programs are recognised as an
expense as incurred. Costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique software products
controlled by the Group and will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year,
are recognised as intangible assets. Direct costs include staff cost, costs of the software development
team and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.
108
Annual Report‘22

Subsequent expenditure
Expenditure which enhance or extend the performance of computer software programs beyond their
original specifications are recognised as capital improvement and added to the original cost of the software.
Amortisation
Intangible assets are amortised using the reducing balance method at the rate stated in note 6.
4.3 Non current assets held for sale
Non current assets are classified as assets held for sale when their carrying amount is to be recovered
principally through a sale transaction rather than continuing use and sale is considered highly probable.
They are stated at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell.
4.4 Financial assets
4.4.1 Classification
The Group has classified its financial assets into following categories: financial assets at amortised
cost, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income. The financial assets are classified at initial recognition based on the business
model used for managing the financial assets and contractual terms of the cash flows.
(a) Financial assets at amortised cost
A financial asset shall be classified as financial asset at amortised cost if both of the following conditions
are met:
- the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold 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.
(b) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
The fair value through other comprehensive income classification is mandatory for certain debt
instrument assets unless the option to classify as fair value through profit or loss is taken.

If an equity investment is not held for trading, an entity can make an irrevocable election at initial
recognition to measure it at fair value through other comprehensive income with only dividend income
recognised in profit or loss.
(c) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A debt instrument can be classified as a financial asset at fair value through profit or loss if doing so
eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise
arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising the gains or losses on them on different bases.
All equity instruments are to be classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, except
for those equity instruments for which the Group has elected to present value changes in other
comprehensive income.
4.4.2 Recognition and measurement
Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade date i.e. the date on which
the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus
transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets
carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value, and transaction costs are
expensed in the profit and loss account. Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive
cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the group has transferred
substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

After initial recognition, an entity shall measure a financial asset at fair value or amortised cost.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss’ category are presented in the profit and loss account within ‘Other income / other expenses’ in the

109
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
period in which they arise. Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is
recognised in the profit and loss account as part of ‘Other income’ when the Group’s right to receive
payments is established.

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of the ‘financial assets at fair value through other
comprehensive income’ category are recognised in other comprehensive income with only dividend
income recognised in profit or loss.

4.5 Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are recognised at the time when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions
of the instrument. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less directly attributable
transactions costs, if any, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method
unless financial liabilities are held for trading, in which case it is required to be measured at fair value
through profit or loss or where entity elects to measure at financial liability, under fair value option.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or
expired. Where 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 a derecognition of original liability and recognition of a new liability and the
difference in respective carrying amounts is recognised in the profit and loss account.

4.6 Off-setting of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statement of
financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is
an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally
enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course
of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counter party.

4.7 Stores, spares and loose tools

Stores, spares and loose tools are stated at the cost which is based on weighted average cost less
provision for obsolescence, if any. Items in transit are stated at cost comprising of invoice value plus
other charges thereon accumulated up to the reporting date.

4.8 Stock-in-trade

These are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of various classes of stock-in-trade
is determined as follows:

Stock category Valuation method



Complete Knock Down Kits (CKD) Specific cost identification
Complete Built-up Units (CBU) Specific cost identification
Local raw materials At cost on weighted average basis.
Work-in-process and finished goods At cost which comprises of raw materials,
import incidentals, direct labour and
appropriate portion of manufacturing
overheads.
Stock-in-transit At invoice price plus all charges paid
thereon up to the reporting date.

Net realisable value signifies the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs
necessary to be incurred in order to make the sale.

4.9 Trade debts and other receivables



Trade debts and other receivables are classified as financial assets at amortised cost according to IFRS 9.

Trade debts are initially recognised at original invoice amount which is the fair value of the consideration
to be received in future and subsequently measured at cost less provision for doubtful debts. The
Company uses simplified approach for measuring the expected credit losses for all trade and other

110
Annual Report‘22

receivables including contract assets based on lifetime expected credit losses. The Company has
estimated the credit losses using a provision matrix where trade receivables are grouped based on
different customer attributes along with historical, current and forward looking assumptions. Debts
considered irrecoverable are written off.

4.10 Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are
not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities outstanding for
more than 12 months as at the reporting date, in which case, they are classified as non current assets.

4.11 Cash and cash equivalents



Cash and cash equivalents are carried in the statement of financial position at cost. For the purpose of
statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, deposits held at
call with banks and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or
less.

4.12 Share capital



Ordinary shares are classified as equity and recognised at their face value.

4.13 Mark-up bearing loans and borrowings

Mark-up bearing loans and borrowings are recorded at the proceeds received. Finance charges are
accounted for on accrual basis.

4.14 Staff benefits



4.14.1 Defined benefit plan - The Holding Company

The Group operates funded gratuity schemes which defines the amount of benefit that an employee
will receive on retirement subject to minimum qualifying period of service under the schemes. The
amount of retirement benefit is usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service
and salary. Provision for gratuity is made annually to cover obligation under the scheme in accordance
with the actuarial recommendations. Latest actuarial valuations were conducted on June 30, 2022 on
the basis of the projected unit credit method by an independent Actuary. The liability recognised in the
consolidated statement of financial position in respect of defined benefit plan is the present value of the
defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets.

The amount arising as a result of re-measurement is recognised in the consolidated statement of


financial position immediately, with a charge or credit to consolidated other comprehensive income in
the periods in which they occur. Past-service cost, if any, are recognised immediately in income.

4.14.2 Defined contribution plan



The Group operates defined contributions plans (i.e. recognised provident fund schemes) for all its
permanent employees. The Group and the employees make equal monthly contributions to the fund
at the rate of 8.33% of the basic salary and cost of living allowance. The assets of the fund are held
separately under the control of trustees.

4.15 Trade and other payables



Trade and other payables are stated at their cost which is the fair value of the consideration to be paid
in future for goods and services, whether or not billed.

4.16 Warranty obligations



The Group recognises the estimated liability, on an accrual basis, to replace or repair parts of trucks
under warranty at the reporting date, and recognises the estimated product warranty costs in profit or loss
net off amount received from principle on account of warranty claims when the sale is recognised.
111
Ghandhara Nissan Limited
4.17 Research and development cost

Research and development cost is charged in the year in which it is incurred. Development costs
previously charged to income are not recognised as an asset in the subsequent period.

4.18 Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of current tax payable, adjustments, if any, to provision for tax
made in previous years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years and deferred tax.

Current

The current tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the
reporting date. The charge for current tax also includes adjustments, where considered necessary, to
provision for tax made in the previous years arising from assessments framed during the year for such years.

Deferred

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method in respect of temporary differences arising
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.

Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted
by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the
deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax
assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

4.19 Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of
past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required
to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made. Provisions are reviewed at
each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

Contingent assets are not recognised and are also not disclosed unless an inflow of economic benefits
is probable and contingent liabilities are not recognised and are disclosed unless the probability of an
outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.

4.20 Revenue recognition

The Group recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an
amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those
good and services. The Group recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying
the following steps:

– Identify the contract with a customer

– Identify the performance obligations in the contract


– Determine the transaction price


– Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract


– Recognise revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation



The Group sales locally assemble heavy & light commercial vehicles and their parts. Revenue from
sale of goods is recognized when the Group satisfies a performance obligation (at a point of time) by
transferring promised goods to customer being when the goods are dispatched to customers. Income
from different sources other than above is recognised on the following basis:

– Return on bank deposits, term deposit receipts and scrap sales is accounted for on accrual basis.

– Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.



112
Annual Report‘22

4.21 Government grants


Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is a reasonable assurance that
the grant will be received and the Group will comply with all conditions of the grant. The benefit of
a government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant. Government
grants relating to costs are deferred and recognised in the consolidated statement of profit or loss over
the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate.

4.22 Borrowing cost


Borrowing cost are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred except where
such costs are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset in
which case such costs are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset.

4.23 Foreign currency transactions and translation


The foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates
prevailing at the dates of transactions. The closing balance of non-monetary items is included at the
exch ange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction and monetary items are translated using the
exchange rate prevailing on the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the
settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit and loss account with other
income / other operating expenses.

4.24 Impairment loss


The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets are reviewed at each reporting date to identify circumstances
indicating occurrence of impairment loss or reversal of provisions for impairment losses. If any indications
exist, the recoverable amounts of such assets are estimated and impairment losses or reversals of
impairment losses are recognised in the consolidated profit or loss. Reversal of impairment loss is
restricted to the original cost of the asset.

4.25 Segment reporting


Segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes by the
Chief Operating Decision Maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance
of the operating segments. On the basis of its internal reporting structure, the Group considers itself to
be a single reportable segment.

4.26 Earnings per share


The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic
EPS is calculated by dividing the consolidated profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the
Holding Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

4.27 Dividend and appropriation to reserves


Dividend and other appropriations to reserves are recognised in the period in which they are approved.

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 change 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 defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method
at the end of reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the gratuity liability recognised
within the consolidated statement of financial position.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change
compared to the previous period.

risk management frame work. The board is also responsible for developing and monitoring the their
Company’s risk management policies.

(a) Credit risk



Credit risk represents the risk of financial loss being caused if counterparty fails to perform as
contracted or discharge an obligation.

Credit risk primarily arises from long term loans, long term deposits, trade debts, loans and advances,
other receivables, accrued interest / mark-up, investments and bank balances. To manage exposure
to credit risk in respect of trade debts, management performs credit reviews taking into account
the customer’s financial position, past experience and other relevant factors. Where considered
necessary, advance payments are obtained from. Credit risk on bank balances and margin held with
banks is limited as the counter parties are banks with reasonably crediting ratings.

lines available.

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates
and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.
The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within
acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

Foreign exchange risk



Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument shall
fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk
on import of raw materials, stores & spares and commission income denominated in U.S. Dollar, Euro
and Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB). The Group’s exposure is as follows:
Rupees Euro U.S. Dollar RMB
June 30, 2022 (Rupees in ‘000)
Trade and other payables 752,046 5 287 22,366

June 30, 2021


Trade and other payables 126,188 24 42 4,645

The following significant exchange rates have been applied: Reporting date rate
2022 2021

RMB to Rupee 30.93 24.76


U.S. Dollar to Rupee 206.00 158.30
Euro to Rupee 215.79 188.71

Sensitivity analysis

At June 30, 2022, if Rupee had strengthened by 5% against RMB, Dollar and Euro with all other variables
held constant, profit before taxation for the year would have been higher/ (lower) by the amount shown
below mainly as a result of net foreign exchange gain / (loss) on translation of net financial liabilities.
2022 2021
Effect on profit / loss for the year (Rupees in ‘000)
RMB to Rupee 34,588 5,751
U.S. Dollar to Rupee 2,957 332
Euro to Rupee 56 226
37,601 6,309

Interest rate risk



Interest rate risk represents the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of change in market interest rates.

Majority of the interest rate risk of the Group arises from short term borrowings from banks, investments
and balances held with banks. At the reporting date the profile of the Group’s interest bearing financial
instruments is as follows:
2022 2021
Fixed rate instruments - financial assets
(Rupees in ‘000)
Bank balances 2,091,283 1,036,420

Variable rate instruments - financial liabilities


Lease liabilities 67,133 92,916
Long term borrowings 1,103,699 155,497
Short term borrowings 581,211 240,189
1,752,043 488,602
Sensitivity analysis

At June 30, 2022, if the interest rates on the Group’s variable rate instruments had been 1% higher / (lower)
with all other variables held constant, loss before tax for the year would have been Rs.17,520 thousand
(2021: Rs.4,886 thousand) lower / higher mainly as a result of net higher / (lower) interest expense.

Price risk

Price risk represents the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from foreign exchange risk or interest rate
risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its
issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market.

39.2 Fair value of financial assets and liabilities

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. Underlying the definition of fair value
is the presumption that the Group is going concern and there is no intention or requirement to curtail
materially the scale of its operation or to undertake a transaction on adverse terms.

The carrying values of all financial assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements are a
reasonable approximation of their fair values.

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different
levels have been defined as follows:

- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities [Level 1].

- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) [Level 2].

- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable
inputs) [Level 3].

There were no transfers amongst the levels during the current and preceding year. The Group’s policy
is to recognise transfer into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting
periods.

Valuation techniques used to determine fair values

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market
prices at the reporting date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly
available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and
those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis.
These instruments are included in Level 1.

Ghandhara Nissan Limited
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by
using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data
where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs
required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument
is included in Level 3.

40. CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT



The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to
maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The Group manages its capital structure by monitoring return on net assets and makes adjustments to
it in the light of changes in economic conditions. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the
Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders or issue new shares and obtain further
borrowing facilities. There was no change to the Group’s approach to capital management during the
year. The Group monitors capital on the basis of gearing ratio calculated as follows:
