Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Renew Power Private Limited

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Renew Power Private Limited (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2021 and 2020 the related consolidated statements of profit and loss and other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at March 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2021, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Valuation of Goodwill

 

Description of the Matter   

As described in notes 4.1 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the amount of goodwill recognised by the Company as at March 31, 2021, was INR 11,596 million. This amount is allocated to the Company’s cash generating units (CGUs) or group of CGUs, which are tested at least annually for impairment by comparing the CGUs carrying amount to their recoverable amount, which is determined to be the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use (VIU). When the carrying amount of CGUs exceeds the recoverable amount, the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount.

 

Auditing the Company’s annual impairment assessment of goodwill is complex and highly judgmental due to significant estimation and judgement required to determine the VIU of each CGU, using discounted cash-flow models. In particular, the Company’s determination of the VIU of each CGU was sensitive to significant assumptions, such as the Plant Load Factor (PLF) used in determining revenue projections, future operating and maintenance expenses and discount rates. These assumptions are forward-looking and are affected by future economic and market conditions, as well as Company specific qualitative factors, including future performance of wind and solar plants.

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit    To test the assumptions used for determining the VIU, our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the CGUs identified, assessing the impairment methodology applied and obtaining an understanding of the analysis performed by the Company for the purposes of the impairment assessment. We further assessed the significant assumptions involved in the impairment models for determining the VIU of each CGU, including discount rates, along with an assessment of the Company’s ability to forecast by comparing prior years’ estimated PLF to actual PLF which is used in determining revenue projections. We also evaluated the scope, competency, and objectivity of the Company’s experts who supported the estimates used in the valuations. In addition, we involved our valuation specialists who assisted us in assessing key assumptions such as discount rates and external market data, and performing sensitivity analyses on key inputs, including future revenue, operating and maintenance expenses and discount rates. We also evaluated the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures in relation to these matters.

Recoverability of deferred tax assets and reversal of deferred tax liabilities

 

Description of the Matter   

The Company recognised deferred tax assets (net) of INR 1,611 million and deferred tax liabilities (net) of INR 10,808 million as at March 31, 2021. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be utilised. The carrying amount is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities to the extent that such amounts are expected to be reversed after availment of deduction under tax holiday in future years. Disclosures in relation to deferred income taxes are included in notes 4.1 and 55 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Auditing the Company’s assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities is complex and dependent on the Company’s ability to generate future taxable profit against which all such assets and liabilities can be utilized. Significant judgment and estimation are exercised by management to assess the sufficiency of future taxable income and likelihood of the realization of these assets and reversal of liabilities. Predicting future taxable income is dependent on assumptions and judgments regarding future revenue, projected operating and maintenance costs, projected finance costs, future proposed availment of deduction under tax holiday and the period over which such deduction shall be availed, expected usage of brought forward losses and minimum alternate tax credit. These assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions.

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit    To evaluate the future projections of taxable income estimated by the Company to support the recognition of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, our procedures included, among others, assessing the future taxable income including the Company’s assumptions. We performed a sensitivity analysis in relation to the likelihood of generating sufficient future taxable income, taking into account local tax regulations and evaluated the historical accuracy of the Company’s forecast of taxable income by comparison to actual results, and the consistency of those projections with the projections used in other areas of estimation, such as those used for the impairment assessment of goodwill. We obtained the Company’s sensitivity analysis over the PLF which is a key assumption to assess its impact on the forecast of the future taxable income. In addition, we involved our tax professionals who assisted us in assessing temporary differences determined by management on which deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities need to be recognised. We tested the completeness and accuracy of the data used to calculate the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities and evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures made by the Company on the expected recoverability of the deferred tax assets and reversal of deferred tax liabilities.

Corporate information

ReNew Power Private Limited (the Company or Parent) is a private limited company domiciled and incorporated in India. The registered office of the Company is located at 138, Ansal Chamber—II Bhikaji Cama Place, New Delhi—110066. The consolidated financial statements comprise financial statements of Renew Power Private Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Group) were authorised for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on 21 June 2021.

The Group is carrying out business activities relating to generation of power through non-conventional and renewable energy sources. Information on the Group’s structure is provided in note 43 and information on other related party relationships of the Group is provided in note 44.

 

2

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The Group has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Directors consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast doubt significant doubt over this assumption. There is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies, set out below and were consistently applied to all periods presented unless otherwise stated. Refer note 4.2.1 for new and amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Group.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value:

 

   

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments)

 

   

Share based payments

 

   

Assets held for sale

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR) and all values are rounded to the nearest million, except when otherwise indicated. Absolute amounts less than INR 500,000 are appearing in financial statements as “0” due to presentation in millions.

 

3

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at 31 March 2021. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:

 

   

Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee)

 

   

Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

 

   

The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns

 

F-12


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

 

   

The contractual arrangement(s) with the other vote holders of the investee

 

   

Rights arising from other contractual arrangements

 

   

The Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of OCI are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. If a member of the Group uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the Consolidated Financial Statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to that Group member’s financial statements in preparing the consolidated financial statements to ensure conformity with the Group’s accounting policies.

The financial statements of all entities used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to same reporting date as that of the Company i.e., year ended on 31 March. When the end of the reporting period of the parent is different from that of a subsidiary, the subsidiary prepares, for consolidation purposes, additional financial information as of the same date as the financial statements of the parent to enable the parent to consolidate the financial information of the subsidiary, unless it is impracticable to do so.

Consolidation procedure

 

   

Combine like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent on line by line basis with those of its subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements at the acquisition date.

 

   

Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent’s investment in each subsidiary and the parent’s portion of equity of each subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.

 

   

Eliminate in full intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the Group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognised in assets, such as inventory and property, plant and equipment, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the Consolidated Financial Statements. IAS 12—‘Income Taxes’ applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (OCI) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

 

F-13


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

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

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:

 

   

Derecognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the date when control is lost

 

   

Derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests

 

   

Derecognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity

 

   

Recognises the fair value of the consideration received and deferred consideration receivable

 

   

Recognises the fair value of any investment retained

 

   

Recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss

 

   

Recognise that distribution of shares of subsidiary to group in Group’s capacity as owners

 

   

Reclassifies the parent’s share of components previously recognised in OCI to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate, as would be required if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

 

4.1

Summary of significant accounting policies

The following are the significant accounting policies applied by the Group in preparing its consolidated financial statements:

 

a)

Business combinations and goodwill

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and included in other expenses.

The Group determines that it has acquired a business when the acquired set of activities and assets include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The acquired process is considered substantive if it is critical to the ability to continue producing outputs, and the inputs acquired include an organised workforce with the necessary skills, knowledge, or experience to perform that process or it significantly contributes to the ability to continue producing outputs and is considered unique or scarce or cannot be replaced without significant cost, effort, or delay in the ability to continue producing outputs.

 

F-14

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognised at their acquisition date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing present obligation and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is not probable. However, the following assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination are measured at the basis indicated below:

 

   

Deferred tax assets or liabilities and the assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognised and measured in accordance with IAS 12—Income Taxes and IAS 19—Employee Benefits respectively.

 

   

Liabilities or equity instruments related to share based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share —based payments arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment at the acquisition date.

 

   

Assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5—Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations are measured in accordance with that standard.

 

   

Reacquired rights are measured at a value determined on the basis of the remaining contractual term of the related contract. Such valuation does not consider potential renewal of the reacquired right.

 

   

Potential tax effects of temporary differences and carry forwards of an acquiree that exist at the acquisition date or arise as a result of the acquisition are accounted in accordance with IAS 12.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. This includes the separation of embedded derivatives in host contracts by the acquiree.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, any previously held equity interest is re-measured at its acquisition date fair value and any resulting gain or loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss or OCI, as appropriate.

Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability that is a financial instrument and within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, is measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9. Other contingent consideration that is not within the scope of IFRS 9 is measured at fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognised for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognised at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognised in statement of profit or loss.

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

 

F-15


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

A cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually on 31 March, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised in the statement of profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

Where goodwill has been allocated to a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed in these circumstances is measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

 

b)

Investment in associates and jointly controlled entities (joint ventures)

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

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

The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries. The Group’s investment in its associate and joint venture are accounted for using the equity method.

Under the equity method, the investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture since the acquisition date. Goodwill relating to the associate or joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment separately.

The statement of profit or loss reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the associate or joint venture. Any change in OCI of those investees is presented as part of the Group’s OCI. In addition, when there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the associate or joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate or joint venture.

The aggregate of the Group’s share of profit or loss of an associate and a joint venture is shown on the face of the statement of profit or loss outside operating profit and represents profit or loss after tax and non-controlling interests in the subsidiaries of the associate or joint venture.

The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Group. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group.

After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its associate or joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss within ‘Share of profit of an associate and a joint venture’ in the statement of profit or loss.

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint control over the joint venture, the Group measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

Interests in joint operations

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

When a Group entity undertakes its activities under joint operations, the Group as a joint operator recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation:

 

   

its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;

 

   

its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly;

 

   

its revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation;

 

   

its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and

 

   

its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly.

The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses relating to its interest in a joint operation in accordance with the IFRS Standards applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.

When a Group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a Group entity is a joint operator (such as a sale or contribution of assets), the Group is considered to be conducting the transaction with the other parties to the joint operation, and gains and losses resulting from the transactions are recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of other parties’ interests in the joint operation.

When a Group entity transacts with a joint operation in which a Group entity is a joint operator (such as a purchase of assets), the Group does not recognise its share of the gains and losses until it resells those assets to a third party.

 

c)

Current versus non-current classification

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position based on current / non-current classification.

An asset is treated as current when it is:

 

   

Expected to be realised or intended to sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

 

   

Held primarily for the purpose of trading

 

   

Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

 

   

Cash or cash equivalents unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

A liability is treated as current when it is:

 

   

Expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

 

   

Held primarily for the purpose of trading

 

   

Due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

 

   

There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

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

The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

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

 

d)

Fair value measurement

The Group measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fair value at each reporting date.

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. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

 

   

In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

 

   

In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. The fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use. The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

 

   

Level 1—Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

   

Level 2—Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

 

   

Level 3—Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

 

F-18


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

The management of the Group determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as unquoted financial assets, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for sale.

External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, and significant liabilities. Involvement of external valuers is determined annually by the management after discussion with and approval by the Company’s Audit Committee. Selection criteria include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained. The management decides, after discussions with the Group’s external valuers, which valuation techniques and inputs to use for each case.

At each reporting date, the management of the Group analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the accounting policies of the Group. The management also compares the change in the fair value of each asset and liability with relevant external sources to determine whether the change is reasonable.

On an interim basis, the management presents the valuation results to the Audit Committee and the Group’s independent auditors. This includes a discussion of the major assumptions used in the valuations. For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy, as explained above.

This note summarises the accounting policy for determination of fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes as following:

 

   

Disclosures for significant estimates and assumptions (refer note 55)

 

   

Quantitative disclosures of fair value measurement hierarchy (refer note 47)

 

   

Financial instruments (including those carried at amortised cost) (refer note 46 and 47)

 

e)

Revenue recognition

(i) Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.

a) Sale of power

Income from supply of power is recognised over time on the supply of units generated from plant to the grid as per terms of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) entered into with the customers.

The Group considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price for the sale of power, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration and existence of a significant financing component. There is only one performance obligation in the arrangement and therefore, allocation of transaction price is not required.

 

F-19


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

b) Income from services (management consultancy)

The Group recognises revenue from projects management / technical consultancy over time because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided to them, as per the terms of the agreement entered with the customer.

c) Sale of equipment

Revenue from sale of equipment is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of the equipment. The Group considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price for the sale of equipment, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components, non-cash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer. There is only one performance obligation in the arrangement and therefore, allocation of transaction price is not required.

d) Income from operation and maintenance services

Revenue from operation and maintenance services are recognised over time as per the terms of agreement.

e) Revenue from Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) Contracts

Revenue from provision of service is recognised over a period of time on the percentage of completion method. Percentage of completion is determined as a proportion of cost incurred to date to the total estimated contract cost. Profit on contracts is recognised on percentage of completion method and losses are accounted as soon as these are anticipated. In case the total cost of a contract based on technical and other estimates is expected to exceed the corresponding contract value such expected loss is provided for. The revenue on account of extra claims on construction contracts are accounted for at the time of acceptance in principle by the customers due to uncertainties attached.

Contract revenue earned in excess of billing has been reflected under other current assets and billing in excess of contract revenue has been reflected under current liabilities in the statement of financial position.

f) Sale of Reduction Emission Certificates (RECs)

Income from sale of RECs is recognised on sale of these certificates.

Variable consideration

If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Group estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods or service to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. To estimate the variable consideration, the Group applies the method that it expects best predicts the amount of consideration to which the entity will be entitled based on the terms of the contract.

• Rebates

In some PPAs, the Group provide rebates in invoice if payment is made before the due date. These are adjusted against revenue and are offset against amounts payable by the customers.

 

F-20


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

• Significant financing component

Significant financing component for customer contracts is considered for the length of time between the customers’ payment and the transfer of the performance obligation, as well as the prevailing interest rate in the market. The transaction price for these contracts is discounted, using the interest rate implicit in the contract. This rate is commensurate with the rate that would be reflected in a separate financing transaction between the Group and the customer at contract inception.

(ii) Contract balances

a) Contract assets

A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional. Contract assets are subject to impairment assessment. Refer to accounting policies in section (o) Impairment of non-financial assets.

b) Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Group transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract (i.e., transfers control of the related goods or services to the customer).

c) Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Group’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section s) Financial instruments – initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

(iii) Others

a) Income from compensation for loss of revenue

Income from compensation for loss of revenue is recognised after certainty of receipt of the same is established.

b) Dividend

The Company recognises a liability to pay a dividend when the distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company.

 

f)

Foreign currencies

The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in INR, which is also the Company’s functional currency. For each entity, the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.

Foreign currency translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss with the exception of monetary items that are designated as part of the hedge of the Group’s net investment in a foreign operation. These are recognised in OCI until the net investment is disposed of, at which time, the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss. Tax charges and credits attributable to exchange differences on those monetary items are also recognised in OCI.

 

F-21


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.

The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in OCI or profit or loss are also recognised in OCI or profit or loss, respectively).

Group companies

On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into INR at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit or loss are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognised in OCI. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of OCI relating to that particular foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss.

 

g)

Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in India. Current income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in OCI or equity). Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Group reflects the effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment by using either most likely method or expected value method, depending on which method predicts better resolution of the treatment. Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off these and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the asset-liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

 

   

When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

 

   

In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

 

F-22


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised except:

 

   

When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss

 

   

in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

In situations where Group is entitled to a tax holiday under the Income-tax Act, 1961, enacted in India, no deferred tax (asset or liability) is recognised in respect of temporary differences which reverse during the tax holiday period. Deferred taxes in respect of temporary differences which reverse after the tax holiday period are recognised in the period in which the temporary differences originate. However, the Group restrict the recognition of deferred tax assets to the extent that it has become reasonably certain that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in OCI or equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Minimum Alternate Tax

Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the statement of profit or loss as current tax for the year. The deferred tax asset is recognised for MAT credit available only to the extent that it is probable that the concerned company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which the company recognises MAT credit as an asset, it is created by way of credit to the statement of profit or loss and shown as part of deferred tax asset. The company reviews the “MAT credit entitlement” asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that it will pay normal tax during the specified period.

h)

Government grants

Government grants are recognised where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be compiled with. When the grant related to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When grant is related to an asset, it is recognised as income in equal amounts over the expected useful life of related asset.

When the Group receive grants of non-monetary assets, the asset and the grant are recorded at fair value amounts and released to profit or loss over the expected useful life in a pattern of consumption of the benefit of the underlying asset i.e. by equal annual instalments.

The Group presents grants related to an expense item as other income in the statement of profit or loss. Thus, generation based incentive and Sale of emission reduction certificates have been recognised as other income.

Generation based incentive

Generation based incentive is recognised on the basis of supply of units generated by the Group to the state electricity board from the eligible project in accordance with the scheme of the “Generation Based Incentive (GBI) for Grid Interactive Wind Power Projects”.

Subsidy (Viability Gap Funding)

The Group receives Viability Gap Funding (VGF) for setting up of certain solar power projects. The Group records the VGF proceeds on fulfilment of the underlying conditions as deferred government grant. Such deferred grant is recognised over the period of useful life of underlying asset.

 

i)

Property, plant and equipment

Capital work in progress is stated at cost, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any. Property, plant and equipment except freehold land is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Such cost includes the cost of replacing part of the plant and equipment and borrowing costs for long-term construction projects if the recognition criteria are met. When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Group depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as incurred. Freehold land is stated at cost net of accumulated impairment losses and is not depreciated.

The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. Refer to significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (note 55) and provisions (note 25) for further information about the recognised decommissioning provision.

Subsequent costs

The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item of property, plant and equipment, if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably with the carrying amount of the replaced part getting derecognised. The cost for day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in statement of profit or loss as and when incurred.

 

F-24

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Derecognition

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognised. Gains or losses arising from de-recognition of fixed assets are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

 

j)

Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured in initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets and intangible assets under development acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses and intangible assets under development are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.

An intangible asset is derecognised upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit or loss.

Customer related intangibles are capitalised if they meet the definitions of an intangible asset and the recognition criteria are satisfied. Customer-related intangibles acquired as part of a business combination are valued at fair value and those acquired separately are measured at cost. Such intangibles are amortised over the remaining useful life of the customer relationships or the period of the contractual arrangements.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.

Development costs

Development expenditures on an individual project are recognised as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate:

 

   

The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale

 

   

Its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset

 

   

How the asset will generate future economic benefits

 

   

The availability of resources to complete the asset

 

   

The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development

 

F-25


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future benefit.

 

k)

Depreciation / amortisation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

Depreciation and amortisation are calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

Category

  

Life (in years)

Plant and equipment (solar rooftop projects)*

   25 or terms of PPA, whichever is less (15-25)

Plant and equipment (wind and solar power projects)*

   30-35

Plant and equipment (others)

   5-18

Office equipment

   5

Furniture and fixture

   10

Computers

   3

Computer servers

   6

Computer software

   3-6

Customer contracts

   25

Development rights

   25

Leasehold improvements

   Useful life or lease term (5 years), whichever is lower

Building (Temporary structure)

   3

 

  *

Based on an external technical assessment, the management believes that the useful lives as given above and residual value of 0%-5%, best represents the period over which management expects to use its assets and its residual value.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation and amortisation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed at each financial period end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

 

l)

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Unserviceable / damaged inventories are identified and written down based on technical evaluation.

 

m)

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale. Borrowing costs consist of interest, discount on issue, premium payable on redemption and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds (this cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs). The borrowing costs are amortised basis the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method over the term of the loan. The EIR amortisation is recognised under finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. The amount amortised for the period from disbursement of borrowed funds upto the date of capitalisation of the qualifying assets is added to cost of the qualifying assets.

 

F-26


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

To the extent, group borrows funds for general purpose and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the group determines the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on that asset. The capitalisation rate used is weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings of the group that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. In case any specific borrowing remains outstanding after the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale, that borrowing becomes part of the funds that an entity borrows generally when calculating the capitalisation rate on general borrowings. The Group treats as part of general borrowings any borrowing originally made to develop a qualifying asset when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare that asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

 

n)

Leases

The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

As a lessee

The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

i) Right-of-use assets

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

 

   

Leasehold land: 13 to 30 years

 

   

Building: 3 to 5 years

If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.

The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in section (o) Impairment of non-financial assets.

ii) Lease liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

 

F-27


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (example: changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

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

The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As a lessor

Leases in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset are classified as operating leases. Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.

 

o)

Impairment of non-financial assets

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

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre -tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.

The Group bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Group’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a remaining life of the power purchase agreements of the project considering the long term fixed rate firm agreements available.

Impairment losses of continuing operations, including impairment on inventories, are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, reversal is treated as an increase in revaluation.

Intangible assets under development are tested for impairment annually on 31 March, or more frequently when there is an indication that these assets may be impaired, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level.

 

p)

Share based payments

Company provides additional benefits to certain members of senior management and employees of the Group in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).

Equity-settled transactions

The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model.

The cost is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in share-based payment reserve in equity, over the period in which the performance and / or service conditions are fulfilled in employee benefit expenses. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the numbers of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The statement of profit or loss expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised in employee benefit expense.

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other condition attached to an award, but without associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and / or performance conditions.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest because of non-market performance and / or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-market condition, the transaction are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service condition are satisfied.

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognised is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through the statement of profit or loss.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

On repurchase of vested equity instruments by the Group, the payment made to the employee shall be accounted for as a deduction from equity, except to the extent that the payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instruments repurchased, measured at the repurchase date. Any such excess shall be recognised as an expense in the statement of profit or loss.

Cash-settled transactions

A liability is recognised for the fair value of cash-settled transactions. The fair value is measured initially and at each reporting date up to and including the settlement date, with changes in fair value recognised in employee benefits expense (refer note 34). The fair value is expensed over the period until the vesting date with recognition of a corresponding liability. The fair value is determined using a Black-Scholes model, further details of which are given in Note 42. The approach used to account for vesting conditions when measuring equity-settled transactions also applies to cash-settled transactions.

 

q)

Retirement and other employee benefits

Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The Group recognise contribution payable to provident fund scheme as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.

Remeasurements comprising of actuarial gain and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amount recognised in the net interest on the defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised in the statement of financial position with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to the statement of profit or loss in subsequent periods.

The Group operates a defined benefit plan in India, viz., gratuity. The cost of providing benefit under this plan is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation at each period-end carried out using the projected unit cost method.

Past service costs are recognised in statement of profit or loss on the earlier of:

 

   

The date of the plan amendment or curtailment; and

 

   

The date that the Group recognises related restructuring costs

 

F-30


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

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

 

   

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

 

   

Net interest expense or income

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilised within the next twelve months, is treated as short term employee benefit. The Group measures the expected cost of such absences as an additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at reporting date.

The Group treats the accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as long term employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long term compensated absences are determined on the basis of actuarial valuation at each period-end carried out using the projected unit cost method. Remeasurements comprising of actuarial gain and losses are recognised in the statement of financial position with a corresponding debit or credit to profit or loss in the period in which they occur. The Group presents the leave as current liability in the balance sheet, to the extent is does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date. Where Group has unconditional legal and contractual right to defer the settlement for a period beyond 12 months, the same is presented as non-current liability.

 

r)

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit or loss net of any reimbursement.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

Decommissioning liability

The Group considers constructive obligations and records a provision for decommissioning costs of the wind and solar power plants. Decommissioning costs are provided for at the present value of expected costs to settle the obligation using estimated cash flows and are recognised as part of the cost of the relevant asset. The cash flows are discounted at a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the decommissioning liability. The unwinding of the discount is expensed as incurred and recognised in the statement of profit or loss as a finance cost. The estimated future costs of decommissioning are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate. Changes in the estimated future costs, or in the discount rate applied, are added to or deducted from the cost of the asset.

Financial instruments

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

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI), and fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at FVTPL, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price as disclosed in section (e) Revenue from contracts with customers.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

Debt instruments at amortised cost

A ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:

a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows; and

b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the statement of profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Debt instruments at FVTOCI

A ‘debt instrument’ is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met: a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets; and b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest.

Debt instruments included within FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognised in OCI. However, the Group recognises interest income, impairment losses and reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the statement of profit or loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to statement of profit or loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.

Debt instruments at FVTPL

FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorisation as at amortised cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.

 

F-32


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

In addition, the Group may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortised cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’). The Group has not designated any debt instrument as at FVTPL.

Debt instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Equity investments

All other equity investments in scope of IFRS 9 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which IFRS 3 applies are classified at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Group may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Group makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.

If the Group decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognised in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to statement of profit or loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Group may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.

Equity instruments included within FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Embedded derivatives

A derivative embedded in a hybrid contract, with a financial liability or non-financial host, is separated from the host and accounted for as a separate derivative if: the economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to the host; a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and the hybrid contract is not measured at FVTPL. Embedded derivatives are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Reassessment only occurs if there is either a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required or a reclassification of a financial asset out of the FVTPL category.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised when:

 

   

The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or

 

   

The respective Group has transferred their rights to receive cash flows from the asset or have assumed the obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and

 

   

Either the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but have transferred control of the asset.

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the continuing involvement of Group. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss for all debt instruments not held at FVTPL. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate.

The Group follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables or contract revenue receivables. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

The assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECLs is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and of forecast economic conditions. The Group’s historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may also not be representative of customer’s actual default in the future.

The application of simplified approach does not require the Group to track changes in credit risk. Rather it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from initial recognition.

For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the group determines that whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has not increased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk has increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrument improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entity reverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL. The Group considers that there has been a significant increase in credit risk when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due.

Lifetime ECL are the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. The 12-month ECL is a portion of the lifetime ECL which results from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.

The Group considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

For financial guarantee contracts, the date that the Group becomes a party to the irrevocable commitment is considered to be the date of initial recognition for the purposes of assessing the financial instrument for impairment. In assessing whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition of a financial guarantee contracts, the Group considers the changes in the risk that the specified debtor will default on the contract.

 

F-34


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

For a financial guarantee contract, as the Group is required to make payments only in the event of a default by the debtor in accordance with the terms of the instrument that is guaranteed, the expected loss allowance is the expected payments to reimburse the holder for a credit loss that it incurs less any amounts that the Group expects to receive from the holder, the debtor or any other party.

The Group regularly monitors the effectiveness of the criteria used to identify whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk and revises them as appropriate to ensure that the criteria are capable of identifying significant increase in credit risk before the amount becomes past due.

ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) during the period is recognised as income / expense in the statement of profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at FVTPL, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. The financial liabilities of the Group include trade and other payables, derivative financial instruments, loans and borrowings including bank overdraft.

Subsequent measurement

The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as discussed below:

Loans and borrowings

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. This category generally applies to borrowings.

Compulsorily convertible preference shares

Compulsorily Convertible Preference Shares (CCPS) are separated into liability and equity components based on the terms of the contract.

On issuance of the CCPS, the fair value of the liability component is determined using a market rate for an equivalent non-convertible instrument. This amount is classified as a financial liability measured at amortised cost (net of transaction costs) until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option that is recognised and included in equity since conversion option meets IAS 32 criteria for fixed to fixed classification. Transaction costs are deducted from equity and liability on pro-rata basis, net of associated income tax. The carrying amount of the conversion option is not remeasured in subsequent years.

Transaction costs are apportioned between the liability and equity components of the CCPS based on the allocation of proceeds to the liability and equity components when the instruments are initially recognised.

Compound instruments—Compulsorily Convertible Debentures

Compulsorily Convertible Debentures (CCDs) are separated into liability and equity components based on the terms of the contract

The Group recognises interest, dividends, losses and gains relating to such financial instrument or a component that is a financial liability as income or expense in the statement of profit or loss.

The present value of the liability part of the compulsorily convertible debentures classified under financial liabilities and the equity component is calculated by subtracting the liability from the total proceeds of CCDs.

Transaction costs that relate to the issue of a compound financial instrument are allocated to the liability and equity components of the instrument in proportion to the allocation of proceeds. Transaction costs that relate jointly to more than one transaction (for example, cost of issue of debentures, listing fees) are allocated to those transactions using a basis of allocation that is rational and consistent with similar transactions.

Financial guarantees

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the group are those contracts that require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due in accordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guarantee contracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted for transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirements of IFRS 9 and the amount recognised less, when appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of IFRS 15.

Derecognition

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

Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities

The Group determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only if there is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model are expected to be infrequent.

The Group’s senior management determines change in the business model as a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Group’s operations. Such changes are evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Group either begins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations. If the Group reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model. The Group does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) or interest.

Offsetting of financial instruments

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

 

t)

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent measurement

The Group uses derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency forward contracts, cross currency swaps (CCS), call spreads, foreign currency option contracts and interest rate swaps (IRS), to hedge its interest rate risks and foreign currency risks. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss, except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and later reclassified to profit or loss when the hedge item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:

 

   

Fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment

 

   

Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction or the foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment

 

   

Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge.

The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the Group will assess whether the hedging relationship meets the hedge effectiveness requirements (including the analysis of sources of hedge ineffectiveness and how the hedge ratio is determined). A hedging relationship qualifies for hedge accounting if it meets all of the following effectiveness requirements:

 

   

There is ‘an economic relationship’ between the hedged item and the hedging instrument.

 

   

The effect of credit risk does not ‘dominate the value changes’ that result from that economic relationship.

 

   

The hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the Group actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the Group actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item.

 

F-37


ReNew Power Private Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Hedges that meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:

Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in OCI in the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of profit or loss. The cash flow hedge reserve is adjusted to the lower of the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument and the cumulative change in fair value of the hedged item.

The Group uses forward currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency risk in forecast transactions and firm commitments, as well as forward commodity contracts for its exposure to volatility in the commodity prices. The ineffective portion relating to foreign currency contracts is recognised as other expense and the ineffective portion relating to commodity contracts is recognised in other operating income or expenses.

The Group designates only the forward element of forward contracts as a hedging instrument. The amounts accumulated in OCI are accounted for, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transaction. If the hedged transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item, the amount accumulated in equity is removed from the separate component of equity and included in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability. This is not a reclassification adjustment and will not be recognised in OCI for the period. This also applies where the hedged forecast transaction of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability subsequently becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied.

When option contracts are used, the Group uses only intrinsic value of the option as the hedging instrument. Gains or losses relating to the effective portion of the changes in intrinsic value of the option are recognised in the cash flow hedging reserve which equity. The changes in the time value of money that relate to the hedged item are recognised within other comprehensive income in the cost of hedging reserve within equity.

For any other cash flow hedges, the amount accumulated in OCI is reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the same period or periods during which the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss.

If cash flow hedge accounting is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in OCI must remain in accumulated OCI if the hedged future cash flows are still expected to occur. Otherwise, the amount will be immediately reclassified to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. After discontinuation, once the hedged cash flow occurs, any amount remaining in accumulated OCI must be accounted for depending on the nature of the underlying transaction as described above.

Cash and bank balances

(i) Cash and cash-equivalents

Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and cash in hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short term deposits, as defined above, net of bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Group’s cash management.

(ii) Bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents

Bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents consists of deposits with an original maturity of more than three months. These balances are classified into current and non-current portions based on the remaining term of the deposit.

 

v)

Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

 

w)

Earnings per equity share (EPS)

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

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the consolidated financial statements by the Board of Directors. The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

 

x)

Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale

The Group classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset (disposal group), excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable, and the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the decision to sell will be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the plan to sell the asset and the sale expected to be completed within one year from the date of the classification.

Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and right of use assets are not depreciated or amortised once classified as held for sale.

Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Immediately prior to classification as held for sale, the assets or groups of assets were remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Subsequently, assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale were valued at the lower of book value or fair value less disposal costs.

New standards, interpretations and amendments

4.2.1. New and amended standards and interpretations adopted by the Group

The Group applied for the first-time certain standards and amendments, which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2020. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 Definition of Material

The amendments provide a new definition of material that states, “information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.” The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made by the primary users. These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of, nor is there expected to be any future impact to the Group.

Amendments to IFRS 3: Definition of a Business

The amendment to IFRS 3—Business Combinations clarifies that to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that, together, significantly contribute to the ability to create output. Furthermore, it clarifies that a business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group, but may impact future periods should the Group enter into any business combinations.

Several other amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in the year ended 31 March 2021, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

4.2.2. Standards issued but not yet effective

The new and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Group’s financial statements are disclosed below. The Group intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective.

COVID-19 related rent concessions—amendment to IFRS 16

On 28 May 2020, the IASB issued COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions—amendment to IFRS 16 Leases The amendments provide relief to lessees from applying IFRS 16 guidance on lease modification accounting for rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a Covid-19 related rent concession from a lessor is a lease modification. A lessee that makes this election accounts for any change in lease payments resulting from the Covid-19 related rent concession the same way it would account for the change under IFRS 16, if the change were not a lease modification. The amendment applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020. Earlier application is permitted. This amendment had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Intangible assets under development amounting to INR 20 as on 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR Nil) out of the total intangible assets under development pertain to fair value of customer contracts for projects under development acquired as part of business combination. Goodwill and intangible assets under development pertain to various group of CGUs and individual CGUs and a combined test of impairment have been performed.

The Group undertook the impairment testing of Goodwill assigned to each Group of CGU and Individual CGU as at 31 March 2021 and 2020 applying value in use approach across all the Group CGUs and individual CGUs i.e. using cash flow projections based on financial budgets covering contracted power sale agreements with procurers (25 years) using a discount rate range of 10.90% (pre-tax) per annum for the impairment test as on 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: 11.40%). The Group has used financial projections over the remaining life of the PPAs as the tariff rates are fixed as per PPA.

Based on the results of the Goodwill impairment test, the estimated value in use of each Group of CGU and individual CGU after adjusting the carrying values of property, plant and equipment’s and intangible assets was more than carrying value of Goodwill by INR 7,592 (31 March 2020: INR 6,515) and accordingly no impairment loss provision has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

 

Group of CGU / individual CGU

   31 March 2021      31 March 2020  

Ostro Energy Group (wind power segment)

     3,090        4,106  

ReNew Vayu Urja (KCT) (wind power segment)

     2,727        1,628  

Prathamesh Solarfarms (solar power segment)

     1,775        586  

The Management believes that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which value in use is based would not cause the aggregate carrying amount of Goodwill to exceed the aggregate value in use of each Group of CGU and individual CGU.

The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations for each group of CGU and individual CGU unit are as follows:

 

(i) Discount rate: [Pre-tax Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)]    10.90% per annum as on 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: 11.40%) discount rate has been derived based on current cost of borrowing and equity rate of return based on the current market expectations.
(ii) Plant load factor (PLF)    Plant load factor for future periods are estimated for each group of CGU and individual CGU based on report from expert.

(iii) Collection of revenue as per PPA rate and GBI benefit in acquired projects located in Andhra Pradesh state will be realised as per the projections and would not be impacted by the ongoing legal proceedings because management believes that matter will be concluded in favour of Group as mentioned in note 51(a).

The assumptions explained above are consistent for each group of CGU and individual CGU to which Goodwill is allocated.

 

Breakeven sensitivity:

   31 March 2021    31 March 2020

Plant load factor (PLF)

   If reduced by 7.41%    If reduced by 4.87%

Discount rate: (Pre-tax WACC)

   11.89%    12.27%

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Non-current trade receivables represent amounts receivable that is unconditional, recognised pursuant to approval of cost over-run by the customer (refer note 30(c)) and are expected to be received over a period of 13—25 years. These trade receivables carry an interest rate in the range of 8.25%—10.41% per annum. As these amounts are not due within next twelve months from the end of the reporting date, they are disclosed as non-current. Trade receivable of INR 236 expected to be realised within twelve months from the end of the reporting date are included in current trade receivables.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The Group has unabsorbed depreciation and tax losses which arose in India of INR 140,086 (31 March 2020: INR 110,796). The unabsorbed depreciation and tax losses will be available for offsetting against future taxable profits of the Group.

Out of this, the tax losses that are available for offsetting from five to eight years against future taxable profits of the companies in which the losses arose are INR 10,854 (31 March 2020: INR 3,606). The unabsorbed depreciation that will be available for offsetting for against future taxable profits of the companies in which the losses arose are of INR 129,232 (31 March 2020: INR 107,074). Unabsorbed depreciation is available for utilisation indefinitely.

The Group has recognised deferred tax asset of INR 34,016 (31 March 2020: INR 28,096) utilisation of which is dependent on future taxable profits. The future taxable profits are based on projections made by the management considering the PPA with power procurer.

The expiry year of MAT credit is 8 to 15 years from the date of entitlement and deferred tax has been recognised on MAT credit which are expected to be utilised before the expiry year.

The Group has tax losses amounting to INR 7,586 (31 March 2020: INR 2,092) having an expiry period of 5 to 8 years, capital losses amounting to INR 828 (31 March 2020: INR Nil) having an expiry period of 4 years, unabsorbed depreciation amounting to INR 1,535 (31 March 2020: INR 1,970) which are available for utilisation indefinitely and MAT credit amounting to INR 82 (31 March 2020: INR 323) having an expiry period of 15 years on which deferred tax assets have not been recognised as there may not be sufficient taxable profits to offset these losses. Further, disallowance under section 94B of the Income Tax Act, 1961 is considered as a permanent difference and accordingly, deferred tax asset has not been recognised on such disallowance.

Certain subsidiaries of the Group have undistributed earnings INR 15,783 as at 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 7,746) which, if paid out as dividends, would be subject to tax in the hands of recipient. An assessable temporary difference exists, but no deferred tax liability has been recognised as the Parent is able to control timing of distributions from these subsidiaries. These subsidiaries are not expected to distribute these profits in the foreseeable future.

Terms / rights attached to equity shares

The Group has only one class of equity shares having par value of INR 10 per share. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. If declared, the Group will declare and pay dividends in Indian rupees. In the event of liquidation of a Group, the holders of equity shares of such Group will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Group, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders of the Group.

The equity shares are redeemable at the option of the holders and, therefore, are considered a puttable instrument in accordance with IAS 32. Puttable instruments are required to be accounted for as financial liabilities, except where certain conditions are met in accordance with IAS 32, in which case, the puttable instruments may be presented as equity. The equity shares meet the conditions of IAS 32 and are, therefore, classified and accounted for as equity. The terms of the equity shares shall be amended pursuant to the completion of the Business Combination event as disclosed in note 58.

Nature and purpose

As per the Companies Act, Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) is a reserve required to be maintained by the Companies that have issued debentures. The purpose of this reserve is to minimise the risk of default on repayment of debentures as this reserve ensures availability of funds for meeting obligations towards debenture-holders. As per amendments in Companies (Share capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014 the requirement of listed Companies to create Debenture redemption reserve has been removed.

 

  *

Due to insufficient profit during the year, Debenture redemption reserve in respect of un-listed entities has been created only to the extent of available profit. Resultantly, there is an overall shortfall as at 31 March 2021: INR 663 (31 March 2020: INR 216).

The Group has certain power purchase agreements entered with customers which contains provision for claiming cost over-runs due to change in law clause, subject to approval by appropriate authority. The significant increase in contract liabilities in the year ended 31 March 2021 is due to receipt of approval of cost over-run which the Group has included as part of transaction price. The contract liabilities have been recognised at the present value of estimated cash flows and it will be recognised as revenue when the Group satisfies its performance obligations under the contract, which are expected to be recognised on straight-line basis over a period of 23 years (refer note 30(c)).

c)

The Group has certain power purchase agreements entered with customers which contains provision for claiming cost over-runs due to change in law clause, subject to approval by appropriate authority. During the year ended 31 March 2021, on receipt of approval of cost over-run of INR 1,472 (31 March 2020: INR Nil), the Group has included the same as part of transaction price. Pending approval of cost over-runs of INR 1,266 (31 March 2020: INR 4,236) till the reporting period end, the Group has not included these over-runs as part of transaction price applying guidance on constraining estimates of variable consideration. Out of cost over-runs approved, the Group during the year ended 31 March 2021 has recognised revenue of INR 48 (31 March 2020: INR Nil).

 

d)

Transaction price - remaining performance obligation

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognised as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Group expects to recognise these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in IFRS 15, the Group has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation related disclosures for contracts as the revenue recognised corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. The cost over-runs which are pending approval of customers has been excluded for this disclosure because it was not included in the transaction price. These cost over-runs were excluded from the transaction price in accordance with the guidance on constraining estimates of variable consideration.

The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations (unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied), other than those where Group has elected the practical expedient available under IFRS 15 as mentioned above is approximately INR 39,801 as at 31 March 2021. Out of this, the group expects to recognise revenue of approximately 4% within the next one year and the remaining thereafter. The remaining performance obligations expected to be recognised relate to the supply of power under power purchase agreements that is to be satisfied as the Group performs for the remaining term of contract. The above disclosure excludes amount recognised as contract liabilities as per note 24.

Reclassification of option premium amortisation on derivative instruments and loss on settlement of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedge from other expenses to finance costs within the statement of profit or loss

The Group re-assessed classification of option premium amortisation on derivative instruments and loss on settlement of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedge. The Group had previously classified these items under the head other expenses (note 36) in the statement of profit or loss. During the current financial year, the Group elected to change the classification of these items under the head finance costs in the statement of profit or loss, as the Group believes that such a reclassification provides more relevant information to the users of its financial statements given that it is aligned to practices adopted by its competitors. In addition, the derivative instruments are obtained to mitigate the currency risk on foreign currency interest-bearing loans and borrowings and accordingly classifying the same under head finance cost would be a more reliable presentation.

The Group applied this reclassification retrospectively and has an effect on the current and previous years presented. This reclassification has resulted in an increase in finance costs by INR 1,849 for the year ended 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 1,421, 31 March 2019: INR 373) with corresponding decrease in other expenses for the respective years. The reclassification has no impact on the profit/(loss) and basic and diluted earnings per share of the Group for the years ended 31 March 2021, 2020 and 2019.

Disposal of subsidiary

On 28 September 2020, the board of directors approved the plan to sell 300 MW Pavagada solar project housed in Adyah Solar Energy Private Limited (Adyah Solar), a wholly owned subsidiary which falls under Solar power reportable segment. The Group has entered into a sale and purchase agreement dated 31 October 2020 for sale of 100% shareholding in Adyah Solar to Ayana Renewable Power Private Limited. At 28 September 2020, the loss of control over Adyah Solar within the next twelve months became highly probable and met the criteria to be classified as a disposal group held for sale and accordingly, assets and liabilities related to the entity were classified as held for sale. The transaction was completed on 15 February 2021.

The total consideration for sale was as INR 5,549 and the net assets of the entity were INR 5,957 excluding deferred tax assets of INR 306. Since total consideration for sale is lower than net assets of the entity disposed, the Group had derecognised deferred tax assets of INR 306, with the corresponding amount recognised under deferred tax in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Gratuity and other post-employment benefit plans

Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The contributions to the provident fund are charged to the statement of profit or loss for the year when the contributions are due. The Group has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund.

The Group has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Gratuity is computed as 15 days’ salary, for every completed year of service or part thereof in excess of 6 months and is payable on retirement/termination/resignation. The benefit vests on the employees after completion of 5 years of service. The Gratuity liability has not been externally funded. Group makes provision of such gratuity liability in the books of accounts on the basis of actuarial valuation as per the projected unit credit method.

The following tables summarise the components of net benefit expense recognised in the statement of profit or loss and the unfunded status and amounts recognised in the statement of financial position for gratuity.

c) Principal assumptions used in determining gratuity obligations

 

     For the year ended  
     31 March 2021     31 March 2020     31 March 2019  

Discount rate

     6.85     6.85     7.75

Salary escalation

     10.00     10.00     10.00

The estimates of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation take account of inflation, total amount of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.

The Group regularly assesses these assumptions with the projected long-term plans and prevalent industry standards. The impact of sensitivity due to changes in the significant actuarial assumptions on the defined benefit obligations is given in the table below:

 

Particulars

   Change in
assumptions
    For the year ended  
  31 March 2021      31 March 2020      31 March 2019  

Discount rate

     + 0.5     141        110        66  
     - 0.5     159        97        76  

Salary escalation

     + 0.5     156        110        74  
     - 0.5 %     144        97        67  

The sensitivity analysis above has been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefit obligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the year.

d) Projected plan cash flow

The table below shows the expected cash flow profile of the benefits to be paid to the current membership of the plan based on past service of the employees as at the valuation date:

 

Maturity profile

   As at
31 March 2021
     As at
31 March 2020

     37        27  

From 6 to 9 years

     40        36  

10 years and beyond

     330        226  

The weighted average duration to the payment of these cash flows is 13 years (31 March 2020: 13.32 years).

e) Risk analysis

The Group is exposed to a number of risks in the defined benefit plans. Most significant risks pertaining to defined benefits plans and management estimation of the impact of these risks are as follows:

i) Inflation risk: Currently the Group has not funded the defined benefit plans. Therefore, the Group will have to bear the entire increase in liability on account of inflation.

 

F-83

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

ii) Longevity risk / life expectancy: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and at the end of the employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.

iii) Salary growth risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. An increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.

b) Repurchase of vested stock options

During the year ended 31 March 2021, the Group undertook a one-time partial liquidity scheme for outstanding ESOPs, wherein, maximum 40% options vested as on 31 July 2020 out of options granted up to 31 March 2018 were eligible for surrender for INR 420 per option. The total number of options opted by employees for surrender were 2,592,557 options. Settlement has been done by the Group in the form of ex-gratia payment equal to value accreted against the surrendered options subject to and net of applicable tax deduction at source. All applicable taxes are to be borne by the employee. Surrendered options are subject to value adjustment in case Group or any of its holding company issues primary securities or on signing of any definitive agreements before 31 July 2021 at higher / lower than INR 420 per share (adjusted for capital restructurings, consolidations, split etc.). Actual adjustments for upside or downside will be settled post completion of the deal. Upsides shall accrue to an employee only if they continue in employment as of 31 July 2021. Employee shall be liable for downside value adjustment even if he or she ceased employment If no deal is completed by 31 October 2021, the deal will be disregarded for adjustments.

Financial guarantees

During the year ended 31 March 2021, the Group has provided financial guarantee on the loans obtained by the shareholder, Wisemore Advisory Private Limited amounting to INR 4,900, being the maximum Group exposure, towards non-convertible debentures for a 7-month period. In the event of default, the Group will have to repay the non-convertible debentures. The Group has not received any consideration for guarantee given. The Group has initially measured financial guarantee at fair value amounting INR 121 with corresponding amount recognised in equity as distributions to equity shareholder. According to Group’s policy amortisation is calculated on straight-line basis until maturity of the contract. Amortisation of INR 43 has been recognised under other income in the statement of profit or loss. The carrying amounts of the related financial guarantee contracts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is INR 78 as at 31 March 2021. The amount of loss allowance is lower than the fair value of financial guarantee initially recognised less cumulative amortisation, therefore no loss allowance was recognised in profit or loss for the financial guarantee contract. There were no financial guarantees given by Group in the previous year.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The management of the Group assessed that cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, short term loans, trade payables, short term interest-bearing loans and borrowings, other current financial liabilities and other current financial assets approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

 

  i)

Fair values of the Group’s term loans from banks, term loans from financial institutions, non convertible debentures, acceptances and senior secured notes including current maturities are determined by using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs including own credit risk. The own non-performance risk as at 31 March 2021 and 2020 was assessed to be insignificant.

 

  ii)

Fair values of the liability component of compulsory convertible preference shares and compulsory convertible debentures determined by using DCF method using discount rate that reflects the borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs including own credit risk. The own non-performance risk as at 31 March 2021 and 2020 was assessed to be insignificant.

 

  iii)

Fair values of the non-current trade receivables, security deposits given are determined by using DCF method using discount rate that reflects the lending rate as at the end of the reporting period. They are classified as level 3 fair values in fair value hierarchy due to inclusion of unobservable inputs including counterparty credit risk.

 

  iv)

The Group enter into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Cross currency interest rate swaps are valued using valuation techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs. The models incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, yield curves of the currency, interest rate curves and forward rate curves of the underlying instrument. The changes in counterparty credit risk had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships.

Fair value hierarchy

The Group categorises assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three levels depending on the ability to observe inputs employed in their measurement which are described as follows:

 

   

Level 1—Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

   

Level 2—Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

 

   

Level 3—Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognised at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. There were no changes in the Group’s valuation processes, valuation techniques, and types of inputs used in the fair value measurements during the period.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the period, and no transfers into or out of Level 3 fair value measurements during the year ended 31 March 2021. There were no changes in the Group’s valuation processes, valuation techniques, and types of inputs used in the fair value measurements during the period.

Financial risk management objectives and policies

The financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, derivative liabilities, trade payable and other financial liabilities.

The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Group’s operations. The Group’s principal financial assets include loans, derivative assets, trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets. The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Group’s senior management is supported by various sub committees that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Group. These committees provide assurance to the Group’s senior management that the Group’s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedure and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Group’s policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below:

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the Group’s assets and liabilities will be exposed to due to a change in market prices that determine the valuation of these financial instruments. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, investments and derivative financial instruments.

The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31 March 2021, 2020 and 2019. The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant and on the basis of hedge designations in place as at 31 March 2021.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from the external borrowings that are used to finance their operations. In case of external commercial borrowings (ECB) and buyers credit the Group believes that the exposure of Group to changes in market interest rates is insignificant as the respective companies manage the risk by hedging the changes in the market interest rates through cross currency interest rate swaps. The Group also monitors the changes in interest rates and actively re finances its debt obligations to achieve an optimal interest rate exposure.

Interest rate sensitivity

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonable possible change in interest rates on financial liabilities, i.e. floating interest rate borrowings in INR and USD. Interest rate sensitivity has been calculated for borrowings with floating rate of Interest. For borrowings with fixed rate of interest sensitivity disclosure has not been made. With all other variables held constant, the Group’s profit before tax is affected through the impact on financial liabilities, as follows:

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment. Though there is exposure on account of Interest rate movement as shown above but the Group minimises the foreign currency (US dollar) interest rate exposure through derivatives and INR interest rate exposure through re-financing.

(ii) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from imports of goods in US dollars. The Group hedges its exposure to fluctuations on the translation into INR of its buyer’s/supplier’s credit by using foreign currency swaps and forward contracts. The Group has followed a conservative approach for hedging the foreign currency risk so as to not use complex forex derivatives and foreign currency loan. The Group also monitors that the hedges do not exceed the underlying foreign currency exposure. The Group does not undertake any speculative transaction.

Foreign currency sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and INR exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the group’s profit before tax is due to changes in the fair value of monetary liabilities comprising of buyer’s/supplier’s credit in US dollars. The impact on the group’s pre-tax equity is due to changes in the fair value of cross-currency interest-rate swaps (CCIRS) designated as cash flow hedges. The group’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that the power procurer will not meet their obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from their operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions and other financial instruments. The credit risk exposure is insignificant given the fact that substantially whole of the revenues are from state utilities/government entities. The Group only deals with parties which has good credit rating / worthiness given by external rating agencies or based on the Group’s internal assessment.

Further the group sought to reduce counterparty credit risk under long-term contracts in part by entering into power sales contracts with utilities or other customers of strong credit quality and we monitor their credit quality on an ongoing basis.

The maximum credit exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position at 31 March 2021 and 2020 is the carrying amount of all the financial assets except for financial guarantees. The Group’s maximum exposure relating to financial guarantees is disclosed in Note 44 and the liquidity table below.

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

(i) Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed basis established policies of Group, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Group does not hold collateral as security. The group has majorly state utilities / government entities as its customers with high credit worthiness and therefore the group does not see any significant risk related to credit.

The trade receivable balances of the Group are evenly spread over customers.

The credit quality of the customers is evaluated based on their credit ratings and other publicly available data.

The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment and impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date to measure expected credit losses. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

Set out below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Group’s trade receivables using a provision matrix:

included trade receivables which are not yet due.

(ii) Financial instruments and credit risk

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by Group’s treasury department. Investments, in the form of fixed deposits, loans and other investments, of surplus funds are made only with banks and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed on an annual basis by the Group, and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of group’s finance committee. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.

(iii) Other financial assets

Credit risk from other financial assets including loans is managed basis established policies of Group, procedures and controls relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding receivables are regularly monitored. The Group does not hold collateral as security.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The approach of the Group to manage liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that these will have sufficient liquidity to meet their respective liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk damage to their reputation. The Group assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be low. The Group has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding and debt maturing within 12 months can be rolled over with existing lenders.

The Group rely mainly on long-term debt obligations to fund their construction activities. To the extent available at acceptable terms, utilised non-recourse debt to fund a significant portion of the capital expenditures and investments required to construct and acquire our wind and solar power plants and related assets. The Group’s non-recourse financing is designed to limit default risk and is a combination of fixed and variable interest rate instruments. In addition, the debt is typically denominated in the currency that matches the currency of the revenue expected to be generated from the benefiting project, thereby reducing currency risk. The majority of non-recourse debt is funded by banks and financial institutions, with debt capacity supplemented by unsecured loan from related party.

Capital management

For the purpose of the capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, compulsorily convertible debentures, compulsorily convertible preference shares, Securities premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Group’s management is to maximise the shareholder value.

To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group monitor capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Group includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings and other payables, less cash and short-term deposits. Group systematically evaluates opportunities for managing its assets including that of buying new assets, partially or entirely sell existing assets and potential new joint ventures. Crystallisation of any such opportunity shall help the Group in improving the overall portfolio of assets, cash flow management and shareholder returns.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

The policy of the Group is to keep the gearing ratio of the power project to 3:1 during the construction phase and aim to enhance it to 4:1 post the construction phase. This is in line with the industry standard ratio. The current gearing ratios of the various projects in the Group is between 3:1 to 4:1. ‘In order to achieve this overall objective, the capital management of the Group, amongst other things, aims to ensure that they meet financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements.

For all long-term loan arrangements, the Group has complied with the debt covenants except for long-term loan arrangements amounting to INR 10,341 as at 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 2,916), where the Group could not meet covenants with the effect that the liability became payable on demand. The Group has classified the liability as current. Further, for the March 2021 arrangements, the Group has subsequently received waiver of INR 6,446 from the lender in April 2021 and has applied for waiver to lenders for INR 3,664. For the March 2020 arrangement, the Group had subsequently received waiver from the lender and this loan was fully repaid in November 2020 (refer note 21).

No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31 March 2021, 2020 and 2019.

The Group is contesting demands of direct and indirect taxes and the management, including its tax advisors, believe that its positions will likely be upheld in the appellate process. No tax expense has been accrued in the financial statements for the demands raised.

  @

There is an additional disallowance/addition to returned income for INR 440 of the Parent under section 37 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 for share based payment expenses. The management believes that any unfavourable judgement will not have any impact as this will be eligible for set off against unabsorbed losses / depreciation. Accordingly, no amount has been provided in consolidated financial statements as at 31 March 2021 and 2020. Also, since no deferred tax asset has been created on unabsorbed losses and depreciation, therefore, there will be no impact on the consolidated statement of profit or loss in case of unfavourable outcome.

Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for

As at 31 March 2021, the Group has capital commitment (net of advances) pertaining to commissioning of wind and solar energy projects of INR 55,483 (31 March 2020: INR 11,955).

Guarantees

The Group has obtained guarantees from financial institutions as a part of the bidding process for establishing renewable projects.

Legal matters

 

  (a)

Dispute with Southern Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh Limited

Certain subsidiaries companies (AP entities) have entered into long-term PPAs having a cumulative capacity of 777 MWs (wind and solar energy projects) with Southern Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh Limited i.e. the distribution company of Andhra Pradesh (APDISCOM). These PPAs have a fixed rate per unit of electricity for the 25-year term. With regard to aforementioned PPAs, certain litigations as described below are currently underway:

a. In terms of the Generation Based Incentive (GBI) scheme of the Ministry of Renewable Energy (MNRE), the AP entities accrue income based on units of power supplied under the aforementioned PPAs. Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC) vide its order in July 2018 allowed APDISCOMS to interpret the Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Tariff Determination for Wind Power Projects) Regulations, 2015 (Regulations) in a manner to treat GBI as a pass through in the tariff.

The AP entities filed writ petition before the Andhra Pradesh High Court (AP High Court) challenging the vires of the regulation and the order by APERC and were granted an interim stay order in August 2018. As at 31 December 2020, the cumulative amount recoverable from the APDISCOM pertaining to period from February 2017 till July 2018, included in trade receivables amounts to INR 1,004 million. The AP entities have filed an interim application in AP High Court seeking payment of amount wrongfully deducted by the APDISCOM.

The management basis legal opinion obtained by it, believes that the GBI benefit is over and above the applicable tariffs and the APERC does not have jurisdiction to interfere with the intent of GBI scheme and therefore the outstanding amount is recoverable and hence no adjustment has been made in the consolidated financial statements in this regard.

b. The Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) issued an order (GO) dated 1 July 2019 constituting a High-Level Negotiation Committee (HLNC) for review and negotiation of tariff for wind and solar energy projects in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Pursuant to the GO, APDISCOM issued letters dated 11 July 2019 and 12 July 2019 to the AP entities, requesting for revision of tariffs entered into in PPAs. The AP entities filed a writ petition on 23 July 2019 before the AP High Court challenging the GO and the said letters issued by APDISCOM for renegotiation of tariffs. The AP High Court issued its order dated 24 September 2019 enumerating the following:

i. Writ petition is allowed, and both GO and the subsequent letters are set aside.

 

F-112

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

ii. Further, APDISCOM were instructed to honour pending and future bills and pay the same at the interim rate of INR 2.43 per unit till determination of O.P. No. 17 of 2018 pending before APERC

iii. APERC to dispose-off the case within a time frame of six months.

The AP Entities have filed a Writ Appeal before the division bench of the AP High Court challenging the jurisdiction of APERC in entertaining O.P. No. 17 of 2018. Parallelly, the AP Entities have filed another Writ Appeal before the division bench of the AP High Court challenging AP High Court’s direction to the APDISCOM to pay tariff at interim rate till determination of OP No. 17 of 2018 by APERC.

Thereafter, certain power generating companies other than ReNew Group have filed petitions under Article 139 of the Constitution of India before the Supreme Court seeking transfer of the proceedings pending before the Division Bench of the High Court, and for adjudication of the same by the Supreme Court.

APDISCOM has also filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in the Supreme Court in October 2020 against the Judgment and order dated 19 December 2019 in I.A. No. 9 of 2019 in W.P. No. 9876 of 2019 of another power generating company in the industry, which modified the Order dated 24 September 2019, passed by Single Judge of AP High Court and directed APDISCOM to make payments at the rate mentioned in PPAs. The AP Entities through its Holding Company, ReNew Power Private Limited, has filed an impleadment application in the SLP apprehending that any order or observation of the Supreme Court may have an adverse impact on the Order dated 24 September 2019 and W.A. No. 6 of 2020 and batch pending before Division Bench of the AP High Court.

The AP entities have a net block of INR 50,154 as at 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 49,617) and have recognised a revenue of INR 6,680 for the year ended 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 6,911, 31 March 2019: INR 8,765) and have a trade receivable balance of INR 14,167 as at 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 8,945, 31 March 2019: INR 4,420) from sale of electricity against such PPAs [including an amount of INR 1,004 for GBI receivable as explained in part (a) to the note].

The management basis legal opinion obtained by it, believes that it has strong merits in the case and the final order would be in its favour and hence no adjustment has been made in the consolidated financial statements for provision of impairment on non-financial assets.

 

  (b)

Dispute with Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission

Distribution companies of the state of Karnataka issued demand notices to captive users (customers of certain Group’s subsidiaries) and to the respective captive plants (hereinafter refer to as the “SPVs”), alleging that captive users had not consumed energy in proportion to their respective shareholding in the SPVs, thereby failing to maintain their Captive Status in accordance with Rule 3 of the Electricity Rules, 2005, and consequently, were liable to pay cross subsidy surcharge and differential between rate of electricity tax applicable on the energy consumed in the entire year.

SPVs had deposited a sum of INR 114 (31 March 2020: INR 114) under protest against the demand raised by distribution companies amounting INR 298 (31 March 2020: INR 298) in relation to the demand notices up to financial year ended 31 March 2018. Thereafter, the SPVs had filed petitions before the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) contesting these demands.

KERC had granted interim relief and stayed the demand notice and disconnection by the distribution companies till final adjudication of the petitions. The amount paid under protest has been accounted for as recoverable and disclosed under head “Other current assets” in these financial statements.

(Amounts in INR millions, unless otherwise stated)

 

Apart from above, a sum of INR 180 has been demanded by distribution companies from some of the captive users of the SPVs towards energy supplied till 31 March 2021, alleging that the captive user had not consumed energy in proportion to its respective shareholding in the SPVs. The SPVs have filed a writ petitions in July, 2019 and August 2020 before the High Court of Karnataka challenging such demands and seeking their quashing. The High Court, vide Orders dated 18 July 2019, 18 December 2019, 18 September 2020 and 6 October 2020, has directed that no precipitative action shall be taken on these demand notices till final adjudication of the petitions.

The SPVs, based on legal advice obtained, believes that there are merits in its position and that the demand raised by distribution companies would be rescinded by relevant legal authorities and hence no adjustment has been made in the consolidated financial statements in this regard.

 

  (c)

Order of the Supreme Court of India to underground high-tension power lines

In earlier years, a petition in public interest (the “Writ Petition”) was filed before the Supreme Court of India to seek directions to save two protected species of birds in the state of Rajasthan and Gujarat (the ‘Birds’) stating that these Birds collide with overhead transmission lines and suffer injuries or die. Subsequent to the year end, on 19 April 2021, the Supreme Court has ordered (the “Order”) for all existing and future powerlines to be undergrounded, subject to feasibility in case of high-tension power lines. As at 31 March 2021, the Group has a total of 3,436.4 MW of power projects, of which 978.8 MW are commissioned and projects with 2,448.6 MW are under development in the area impacted by the Order.

The Group along with other companies in the industry affected by the Order are in the process of evaluating its legality and are contemplating filing an application to challenge or seek appropriate directions, clarifications of the Order. Further, management, basis legal opinion obtained by it believes that the additional cost that will be incurred by the Group shall be recovered from customers under respective PPAs through provisions relating to change in law and force majeure and hence no financial implication is likely to devolve on the Group. Also, under the current circumstances, owing to COVID—19 related lockdowns, it is impracticable to assess the same on the ground or to get the feasibility studies carried out.

Pending the evaluation of future legal course of action, impracticability to assess the operational and financial impact under the current scenario and potential recovery of cost from customers, no effect has been given in these consolidated financial statements.

Hedging activities and derivatives

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

The Group uses certain types of derivative financial instruments (viz. forwards contracts, swaps, call options and call spreads) to manage / mitigate its exposure to foreign exchange and interest risk.

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

In the process of applying the accounting policies management has made certain judgments, estimates and assumptions. The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in assumptions when they occur.

A) Accounting judgements

Taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

The Group makes various assumptions and estimates while computing deferred taxes which include production related data (PLFs), projected operations and maintenance costs, projected finance costs, proposed availment of deduction under section 80IA of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and the period over which such deduction shall be availed, usage of brought forward losses etc. While these assumptions are based on best available facts in the knowledge of management as on the balance sheet date however, they are subject to change year on year depending on the actual tax laws and other variables in the respective year. Given that the actual assumptions which would be used to file the return of income shall depend upon the tax laws prevailing in respective year, management shall continue to reassess these assumptions while calculating the deferred taxes on each reporting date and the impact due to such change, if any, is considered in the respective year.

Identification of a lease

Management has assessed applicability of IFRS 16 - ‘Leases’, for certain PPAs of the Group. In assessing the applicability, the management has exercised significant judgement in relation to the underlying rights and risks related to operations of the plant, control over design of the plant etc., in concluding that the PPA do not meet the criteria for recognition as a lease.

B) Estimates and assumptions

Capitalisation of internal costs

The Group capitalises certain internal costs incurred in connection with development of its wind and solar power Projects as eligible cost of property, plant and equipment as per IAS 16. The capitalisation of these costs during the construction period (including internal Employee benefit costs and other common expenses) begins when development efforts commence and ends when the asset is ready for its intended use. These expenses are allocated to all the wind and solar power projects of the Group in the form of ‘Management Shared Services’. Allocation of cost to the entities involves various estimates including retention for costs of management of investments in subsidiaries, allocation of cost for projects under construction vis-a-vis operating projects, profit mark-up which are assessed through an external expert. The capitalisation of internal costs increases construction in progress recognized during development of the related project asset and depreciated over its estimated useful life.

The Group capitalised such internal costs amounting to INR 1,649 during the year ended 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: INR 1,713, 31 March 2019: INR 1,517).

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. Assumptions include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See note 46 and 47 for further disclosures.

Useful life of depreciable assets

The useful lives and residual values of Group’s assets are determined by management at the time asset is acquired and are reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. The useful lives and residual values are based on technical assessments, historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life. These judgements best represent the period over which management expects to use its assets and its residual value.

Provision for decommissioning costs

Upon the expiration of the life of the wind and solar power plants, the Group considers a constructive obligation to remove the wind and solar power plant and restore the land. The Group records the fair value of the liability for the obligation to retire the asset in the period in which the obligation is incurred, which is generally when the asset is constructed. In determining the fair value of the provision, assumptions and estimates are made in relation to discount rates, the expected cost to decommission the power projects from the site and the expected timing of those costs. Refer note 25 for further disclosures.

Impairment of goodwill

The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different CGUs are disclosed and further explained in note 6.

Provision for expected credit losses of trade receivables

The Group uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments that have similar loss patterns (i.e., by geography, product type, customer type and rating etc.).

The provision matrix is initially based on the Group’s historical observed default rates. The Group will calibrate the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed. The assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECLs is a significant estimate. The amount of ECLs is sensitive to changes in circumstances and of forecast economic conditions. The Group’s historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may also not be representative of customer’s actual default in the future. The information about the ECLs on the Group’s trade receivables is disclosed in note 10.

Code on Social Security, 2020

The Code on Social Security, 2020 (‘Code’) relating to employee benefits during employment and post-employment benefits received Presidential assent in September 2020. The Code has been published in the Gazette of India. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not been notified and the final rules / interpretation have not yet been issued. The Group will assess the impact of the Code when it comes into effect and will record any related impact in the period the Code becomes effective. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Group believes the impact of the change will not be significant.

 

57

Impact of COVID-19

Due to outbreak of COVID-19 in India and globally, the Group has continued its assessment of likely adverse impact on economic environment in general and financial risks on account of COVID-19. Considering that the Group is in the business of generation of electricity which is an essential service as emphasised by the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Power, Government of India and which is granted “Must Run” status by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), the management believes that the impact of outbreak on the business and financial position of the Group is not significant.

Further, MNRE directed that the payment to Renewable Energy power generator shall be done on regular basis as being done prior to lockdown and the Group has generally received regular collection from its customer(s). The management does not see any risks in the Group ability to continue as a going concern and has been able to service all debts obligations during the half year, however in certain cases has opted for moratorium for interest and principal instalments falling due to lenders under the “Reserve Bank of India’s COVID 19 – Regulatory Package dated 27 March 2020”. The Group is closely monitoring developments, its operations, liquidity and capital resources and is actively working to minimise the impact of the unprecedented situation.

Basis of preparation

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 assumes that the Transactions, have occurred on March 31, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2021 present pro forma effect to the Transactions, as if they had been completed on April 1, 2020.

ReNew Global, Merger Sub and RMG II do not meet the definition of business as per IFRS 3. In order to account for an acquisition under IFRS 3, an entity shall determine whether a transaction or other event is a business combination by applying the definition in this IFRS, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the assets acquired are not a business, the reporting entity shall account for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. Basis above definition, the Merger and Exchange does not constitute business combination and therefore is outside the scope of IFRS 3.

 

F-126


The Merger will be accounted for as acquisition of Class A and Class B shares of RMG II by ReNew Global. The Class A shares of RMG II are subject to a possible redemption prior to closing of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been prepared basis the actual redemption of 23.613 million of Class A shares of RMG II.

The Exchange will be accounted for as a “reverse recapitalisation” since, immediately following completion of the transaction, the stockholders of ReNew India immediately prior to the transaction will have effective control of ReNew Global., the post-combination company, through its approximately 75% ownership interest in the combined entity, its selection of a majority of the board of directors and its designation of all of the senior executive positions. For accounting purposes, ReNew India will be deemed to be the accounting acquirer and, consequently, the Exchange will be treated as a recapitalization of ReNew India (i.e., a capital transaction involving the issuance of equity shares of ReNew India). Accordingly, the consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations of ReNew India will become the historical financial statements of ReNew Global. No intangible assets or goodwill will be recorded in this transaction and difference in ownership interest and net assets will be recognized as a listing expense under the head other expense in statement of operations.
