otherwise, in the proposed resolution.
The Companies Act, 2013 requires the fees to be determined in the Annual General Meeting, thereby the Board recommends this Ordinary Resolution
set out at Item No. 6 of the accompanying notice, for the approval by the members of the Company.
Item no. 7 & 8
The Shareholders in their 20th Annual General Meeting held on September 19, 2020 approved the re-appointment of Mr. Ashwani Kumar Vats,
Whole Time Director designated as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company for period effective from April 01, 2020 to March 31, 2024 on the

It is proposed to appraise in the remuneration of Mr. Vats based on his experience/ performance/contribution in Company’s Growth, future business
prospects, in the effective management of the affairs of the company, etc. Thereby, it is proposed to pay commission to him.
However, formerly, commission on profits was not a part of his remuneration, so to include the commission in his structure of compensation along
with revision in his Basic Salary, it is proposed to revise his remuneration, subject to the approval of members.
The Nomination, Remuneration and Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors in its meeting held on July 21, 2021 for
revision in the existing Salary and to include the Commission with his basic Salary, allowances, and other Perquisites effective from April 1, 2021 until
his remaining tenure i.e. upto March 31, 2024.

payment of commission upto ` 25,00,000/- be paid to Mr. Vats in lieu of Net Profits for Financial Year 2020-21 for the approval of shareholders. Such
commission will be exclusive of the remuneration given to Mr. Vats for FY 2020-21.

Manufacturing has emerged as one of the high growth sectors in India. Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi, had launched the ’Make in
India’ program to place India on the world map as a manufacturing hub and give global recognition to the Indian economy. Further, the Indian
government recognises chemical industry as a key growth element and forecast to increase share of the chemical sector to ~25% of the GDP

in developing countries.
Our strengths revolve around our penchant for innovation and consistent product development with the aim of creating a clear differentiation
from competition, our strong passion for sustainability and the circular economy, our thought leadership in creating intellectual property and our
ability to collaborate with multiple agencies to realize our four-pillar strategy.

The Company has followed the guidelines of accounting standards as mandated by the Central Government in preparation of its financial
statements.
For and on behalf of the Board of Directors

GULSHAN POLYOLS LIMITED
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not
a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
Under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial
controls with reference to standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by
management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related
disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the
audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue
as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the
standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence,
and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the
standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless
law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits
of such communication.
Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
1. As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2016 (“the Order”) issued by the Central Government of India in terms of section 143 (11)
of the Act, we give in “ Annexure A” a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.
2. As required by section 143 (3) of the Act, we report that:
a. We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the
purpose of our audit;
b. In our opinion proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the Company so far as it appears from our examination of
those books;
c. The Balance Sheet, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the
Statement of Cash Flows dealt with by this Report are in agreement with the books of account.
d. In our opinion, the aforesaid standalone financial statements comply with the Ind AS specified under Section 133 of the Act.
e. On the basis of written representations received from the directors as on March 31, 2021 taken on record by the Board of Directors, none of
the directors is disqualified as on March 31, 2021 from being appointed as a director in terms of Section 164 (2) of the Act.

i. Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations. To manage trade receivable, the Company periodically
assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial conditions, economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of such
receivables. The Company computes an allowance for impairment of trade receivables for unrelated parties based on a simplified approach, that represents its
expected credit losses. The Company uses an allowance matrix to measure the expected credit loss of trade receivables. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss
experienced over the past 3 years. These loss rates are adjusted with scalar factors to reflect differences between current and historical economic conditions and
the management’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables.
96
GULSHAN POLYOLS LIMITED
Financial instruments that are subject to such risk, principally consist of investments, trade receivables and other loans and advances. None of the financial
instruments of the Company results in material concentration of credit risks.
Expected credit loss for trade receivables under simplified approach
The Company recognizes lifetime expected credit losses on trade receivables using a simplified approach, wherein the Company has defined percentage of
provision by analyzing historical trend of default relevant to each category of customer based on the criteria defined above and such provision percentage
determined have been considered to recognize life time expected credit losses on trade receivables (other than those where default criteria are met).
Other than financial assets mentioned above, none of the financial assets were impaired and there were no indications that defaults in payment obligations would
occur.
Concentration of significant credit risk
There is no concentration of customer risk so far transactions with non-related parties are concerned.
ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity
and to ensure funds are available for use as per the requirements. The company mitigates liquidity risk by way of formulation of cash budget and comparison of
actual cash flows with budget on a continuous basis.

LIABILITIES
45. The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity.
The Ministry of Labour and Employment has released draft rules for the Code on Social Security, 2020 on November 13, 2020, and has invited suggestions from
stakeholders which are under active consideration by the Ministry. The Company will assess the impact and its valuation once the subject rules are notified and will
give appropriate impact in its financial statements in the period in which, the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are
published.
Since there were no standard issued but not yet effective at the time of preparing the financial statements, hence the disclosure is not applicable.
47. The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic globally and in India is causing significant disturbance and slowdown of economic activity. Company’s operations were also
severely affected due to interruption in production, supply chain disruption, unavailability of personnel, etc. The management of the Company has exercised due
care in concluding significant accounting judgements and estimates in preparation of the financial results. In assessing the recoverability of Trade receivables, the
Company has considered subsequent recoveries, past trends, credit risk profiles of the customers and internal and external information available up to the date of
issuance of these financial results. In assessing the recoverability of inventories, the Company has considered the latest selling prices, customer orders on hand and
margins. Based on the above assessment, the Company is of the view that the carrying amounts of Trade receivables and inventories are expected to be realizable
to the extent shown in the financial results.
The impact of COVID-19 may be different from the estimates as at the date of approval of these financial results and the Company will continue to closely monitor
the development.
