Jonathan Keeling
Chairman
Board of Directors' Review
We are pleased to announce the consolidated total revenues totaling US$ 42.93
million (2022-23: US$ 63.03 million).
Operations
Operational activities over the last year have followed the Group's objectives
and are summarized below:
a) drilling and completion of production wells for the SGL, SSG and SSF
field development continued.
b) testing various wells previously drilled where gas shows were
encountered to enable the Group to increase its reserve base; and
c) testing the B&B gas recovery potential in addition to gas
discovered in the Pariwar formation.
Additional testing is an important element of the operational programme to
enhance production and maximize recovery of gas through efficient asset
management. Activities such as these will continue to increase as we obtain
and act on new data and production history. An important development in
respect of the SGL Field was the discovery of new intervals within Pariwar.
These were located below the existing producing P10 sands. These reservoirs
were successfully exploited for production and going forward will add to the
reserves and production from both existing and new wells.
Financials
During the financial year, the Company achieved total revenue of US$ 42.93
million (2022-23: US$ 63.03 million), resulting in reported operating profit
of US$ 36.56 million (2022-23 US$ 54.76 million). The reported profit after
tax was US$ 20.19 million (2022-23 US$ 30.87 million).
While the Company is not expected to pay any significant taxes on its income
for many years in view of the 100% deduction allowed on the capital expenses
incurred in the Block, the Company recognized a deferred tax expense of US$
15.75 million (2022-23: US$ 23.99 million) as per IFRS
requirements.
Post this deferred tax liability provision, the net profit for the year was
US$ 20.19 million (2022-23: US$ 30.87 million).
The net expenditure on the purchase of property, plant & equipment was US$
70.96 million (2022-23: US$ 74.21 million). The property plant and equipment,
including development assets and production assets, increased to US$ 1,291.62
million (2022-23: US$ 1,223.43 million).
The current assets (excluding cash) as of 31 March 2024 stood at US$ 116.87
million (2022-23: US$ 123.92 million), which majorly includes US$ 8.94 million
(2022-23: US$ 9.93 million) of inventories, US$ 107.31 million (2022-23: US$
107.35 million) of receivables from related party and US$ 0.62 million
(2022-23: US$ 6.64 million) of trade receivables and another receivable. The
current liabilities of the Company, excluding the related party liability of
US$ 0.01 million (2022-23 :US$ 0.33 million) and current
portion of long-term debt of US$ 20.58 million (2022-23: US$ 28.46 million),
stood at US$ 1.53 million (2022-23: US$ 2.03 million).
As of 31 March 2024, the outstanding debt of the Company to banks was US$
180.26 million (2022-23: US$ 203.93 million), of which US$ 20.58 million
(2022-23: US$ 28.46 million) was categorized as repayable within a year.
During the year, the Company repaid an amount of US$ 23.65 million of the
outstanding term loan facilities, as per the scheduled repayment plan. As of
31 March 2024, the outstanding unsecured debt from bonds was US$ 164.03
million (2022-23: US$ 163.92 million), of which US$ 4.34 million (2022-23: US$
4.30 million) was categorized as repayable within a year and the remaining US$
159.68 million (2022-23: US$ 159.61 million) has been categorized as a
long-term liability.
Outlook
The company continues to see disruption to the quantity of gas supplied to its
ultimate customer's power plant due to ongoing maintenance of the turbine at
the plant. The company will announce the PSC extension when granted. Due to
the ongoing disruption of gas supply the company will seek further external
funding and/or shareholder funding in near future if required.

GAS MARKETS IN INDIA
India has a significant deficit of hydrocarbons which we believe will result
in a long-term, steady demand for gas produced by our Block. According to
the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board ("PNGRB") Report, Vision 2030,
India's natural gas demand will grow significantly to 746 MMSCM/d (26.3 BCF/d)
by the end of Fiscal 2030. India is expected to have approximately 32,727 km
of natural gas pipeline with a design capacity of 815 MMSCM/d in place by
2030. In order to further boost the consumption of natural gas in the country,
the Government established a Gas Trading Hub/ Exchange (GTHE), where natural
gas can be traded and supplied through a market-based mechanism instead of
multiple formula driven prices. Initial trading has already started on Indian
Gas Exchange.
From April 2023 to March 2024 gas sales were invoiced at prices ranging from
the highest of US$ 9.20 per MMBTU to the lowest of US$ 7.48 per MMBTU.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Details of the use of financial instruments by the Company are contained in
note 28 to the attached financial statements.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Details of significant related party transactions are contained in note 16 and
note 23 to the attached financial statements.
INTERNAL CONTROL
The Directors acknowledge their responsibility for the Company's system of
internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness. The system of internal
control is designed to manage the risk of failure to achieve the Company's
strategic objectives. It cannot totally eliminate the risk of failure but will
provide reasonable, although not absolute, assurance against material
misstatement or loss.
GOING CONCERN
Production Sharing Contract (PSC) of the Group has expired on 20 August 2024.
Further, the contract of the Group with its sole customer will expire on 30
September 2024. At the date of signing the financial statements, considering
expiry of above mentioned two contracts and an obligation of the Group to pay
current portion of borrowings of US$ 20,575,321 (2022-23: US$ 28,458,200), in
line with the accounting and auditing framework, this indicates a material
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the group's ability to continue
as a going concern.
The group has considered following factors relevant to support going concern.
The Group has applied for an extension of the Production Sharing Contract
(PSC) which expired on 20 August 2024. The Board is confident that the
extension will be received considering that Clause 2.1 of PSC provides that
PSC can be extended up to 35 years. Further, the Group is in process of
renewing the existing contract with the sole customer (GAIL) for supply of gas
which will expire on 30 September 2024. Moreover, the power plant in this
region is the customer of GAIL and for running that plant, the supply of gas
from the block is essential. The Board is confident that the customer contract
will be renewed soon along with PSC extension considering the ongoing
discussions with the customer and accordingly, the Group will be able to
supply the gas based on a mutually agreed contract.
Subsequent to the year end, the Group has repaid an amount of US$ 15,315,827
and accordingly the amount of US$ 5,259,494 (including interest payable) is
due for repayment within the next 12 months, which the Group expects to meet
from its internal generation of cash from operations (as evident from the
group cash flow forecast and support from largest shareholder). The Group has
sufficient cash flows to repay the maturing debt as the Group is financially
sound. The Group has net working capital of US$ 96,827,206 (2022-23: US$
104,859,475) as at 31 March 2024.
Based on business strategies and operating plans/forecasts of the Group, and
based on the above reasons, the management is confident that the Group will
continue to meet all its obligations as and when they fall due in the normal
course of business. Accordingly, these financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis.
DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' report and
consolidated financial statements for each financial year which give a true
and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income of the Group for that year. In preparing
those financial statements the Directors are required to:
o Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
o Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
o State whether International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by
EU have been followed subject to any material departures disclosed and
explained in the financial statements; and
o Prepare consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis
unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in
business.
The Directors confirm that the financial statements comply with the above
requirements.
The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which
disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the
Company and of the Group to enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the requirements of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence
for taking reasonable steps for the provision and detection of fraud and other
irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the corporate
financial information included on the Group's website. Legislation in Guernsey
governing the preparation and dissemination of financial information may
differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
To the best of our knowledge and belief:
· The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union;
· Give a true and fair view of the financial position and results
of the Group; and
· The financial statements include an analysis of the principal
financial instruments specific risks and uncertainties faced by the Group.
AUDITOR
All of the current Directors have taken all steps that they ought to have
taken to make themselves aware of any information needed by the Group's
Auditor for the purposes of their audit and to establish that the Auditor is
aware of that information. The Directors are not aware of any relevant audit
information of which the Auditor is unaware.
By order of the Board
Jonathan Keeling
Risks and Risk Management
In planning our future activities and reacting to changes in our ongoing
business environment, we seek to identify, assess, mitigate and monitor the
risks that we face. Considerable effort is made during our planning process to
reduce and mitigate the various risks to the extent that this is practical and
commercially sound. Ideally large decisions taken early means that any later
adaptation or reaction should be small.
We cannot remove the Company from all risk and the oil and gas industry brings
with it many special challenges in specific risks. What we can and do strive
to achieve is to understand and manage the risk environment we work within.
The Company faces the appraisal, development and production risks of the oil
and gas industry. The business relies on extensive engineering, geological and
geophysical judgements.
As activities on the Block have grown and generated actual data and
experience, we have used this knowledge to reduce these risks. There has been
an increase in the number of wells to find hydrocarbons through the knowledge
gained from almost complete 3D seismic data and analysis of drilling results.
We shall continue to de-risk this area of our operations but the risk of a dry
hole will never reach zero. The risk of mechanical issues or well construction
failing remains. However, with greater standardization of well design and
repetition of activities this has reduced.
We currently depend on one customer for the sale of gas and substantially all
of our revenues. Discussions are on-going to find and develop new customer
relationships.
GAIL has significant financial resources and maintains a strong credit rating
providing comfort in meeting any obligations under our Agreement. Our gas is
purchased at our field and shipped via a GAIL owned pipeline to the power
plant. The pipeline is purpose built and operating well within its design
specification.
The Company has one bank debt facility outstanding from its group of lenders.
These facilities were obtained on attractive terms in difficult lending
markets. Debt service for the facility remains strong and contributes to our
sound borrower track record. Additional amounts were raised during 2018
through unsecured bonds, which were further re-financed with the additional
bond offering made by the Company in November 2022. The Company has benefited
from consistent support of the majority shareholder particularly reducing the
risk of any funding gaps due to the delay in closing external finance. The
Production Sharing Contract that includes cost recovery and sales contract for
gas provide an enhanced cash flow to service debt and give protection to
lenders.
Our business, revenues and profits may fluctuate with changes in oil and gas
prices. Our production is mainly gas and has been sold on strong "Take or Pay"
contracts that significantly reduce the impact of fluctuations in the wider
global energy market. However, the prevailing prices of oil and gas can have
some bearing on new contracts and price revisions.
As per the revised Domestic gas pricing Guidelines, Sales gas price shall be
10 pct of monthly average of Indian crude basket as notified by PPAC on a
monthly basis from 8th April, 2023. The Gas sale price in the year ended March
2024 ranged from highest of US$ 9.20 per MMBTU to the lowest of US$ 7.48 per
MMBTU.
The oil and gas industry are subject to laws and regulations relating to
environmental and safety matters in exploration for and the development and
production of hydrocarbons. We are bound by the environmental laws and
regulations applicable to India and satisfy and in some areas exceed these
requirements by using good industry practice, trained staff and quality
equipment.
We are committed to upholding procedures to protect the environment and
enforce environmental, health, safety and security mechanisms through
accountability at all levels, suitable policies, feedback and full compliance
by each employee and contractor to all policies we develop.
The Government has historically played a key role, and is expected to continue
to play a key role in regulating, reforming and restructuring the Indian oil
and natural gas industry. A major platform for shaping the industry has been
the award of assets by various rounds under the NELP. Our Block was awarded
before the formation of NELP and therefore places greater emphasis on our
Production Sharing Contract (PSC) in our dealings with Government in various
forms. To date the Block Management Committee created under our PSC and
including multiple Government agencies has assisted the development progress
we have made so far. The Field Development Plan for the area beyond SGL was
approved by Management Committee consisting representatives of DGH and
government created under PSC.
Corporate Governance
The Directors recognize the importance of sound corporate governance and have
chosen to apply the Quoted Companies Alliance ("QCA") Corporate Governance
Code and Guernsey regulations in so far as they are appropriate given the
Company's size and stage of development. The Company may take additional
Corporate Governance measures beyond QCA guidelines and Guernsey regulations
as may be appropriate considering the Company's operations from time to time.
The Company has not adopted the UK Corporate Governance Code ("the Code") and
has chosen to apply the QCA Corporate Governance Code for Small and Mid-Size
Quoted Companies which is in line with most growing AIM companies adopted
practices. The disclosure requirements under the code have been complied with
and the detailed report is available on the official website
(http://www.indusgas.com/ (http://www.indusgas.com/) ) of the company.
Corporate Governance standards and procedures adopted by the Company are
regularly reviewed by the Chairman who has maintained dialogue and answered
questions of shareholders throughout the year. The Chairman has consulted the
Nomad on the objectives of Corporate Governance within the Company.
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Board is responsible for the proper management of the Company. The resumes
of the current board members are as outlined in the section 'Board of
Directors' on page no. 6.
Mr. Ajay Kalsi brings knowledge of the oil and gas industry and a range of
general business skills and continues to be an advisor to the company.
All Directors have access to independent professional advice, at the Company's
expense, when required.
SUB-COMMITTEES
The Board had constituted the nomination and remuneration sub-committees,
which were then disbanded in March 2022 as a result of the Board's reduced
size. Given the Board's new directors appointed recently, nomination and
remuneration sub-committees may reform in future. Further, currently, all the
responsibilities of these sub committees are being carried out directly by the
Board in line with defined policies and processes.
AUDIT COMMITTEE
The committee is responsible for ensuring that the financial performance of
the Company is monitored and reported on, for meeting with the Auditor and
reviewing findings of the audit with the external auditor. It is authorized to
seek any information it properly requires from any employee and may ask
questions of any employee. It meets the Auditor once per year without and is
responsible for considering and making recommendations regarding the
engagement and remuneration of the Auditor.
SHARE DEALING
The Company has adopted a share dealing code (based on the Model Code) and the
Company takes all proper and reasonable steps to ensure compliance by
Directors and relevant employees.
THE CITY CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS
Being a Channel Islands incorporated company, the Company is subject to the UK
City Code on Takeovers and Mergers.
DISCLOSURE AND TRANSPARENCY RULES
As a Company incorporated in Guernsey, Shareholders are not obliged to
disclose their interests in the Company in the same way as shareholders of
certain companies incorporated in the UK. In particular, the relevant
provisions of chapter 5 of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules (DTR) do not
apply. While the Articles contain provisions requiring disclosure of voting
rights in Ordinary Shares, which are similar to the provisions of the DTR,
this may not always, ensure compliance with the requirements of Rule 17 of the
AIM Rules. Furthermore, the Articles may be amended in the future by a special
resolution of the Shareholders.
CONTROL BY SIGNIFICANT SHAREHOLDER
Gynia Holdings Limited, along with its wholly owned subsidiary Focus oil Inc.
own a significant percentage of outstanding shares of the Company. As a
significant shareholder, Gynia could exercise significant influence over
certain corporate governance matters requiring shareholder approval, including
the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate
transactions and other transactions requiring a majority vote.
The Company, Strand Hanson Limited (Nomad and Broker), Gynia and Mr. Ajay
Kalsi have entered into a relationship agreement to regulate the arrangements
between them. The relationship agreement applies for as long as Gynia directly
or indirectly holds in excess of thirty per cent of the issued share capital
of the Company and the Company's shares remain admitted to trading on AIM. The
relationship agreement includes provisions to ensure that:
a) The Board and its committees are able to carry on their business
independently of the personal interests of Gynia;
b) The constitutional documents of the Company are not changed in such a
way which would be inconsistent with the relationship agreement.
c) All transactions between the Group and Gynia (or its affiliates) are on
a normal commercial basis and at arm's length;
d) In the event of a conflict of interest between Gynia and the Board, no
person who is connected with Gynia is appointed as a Non-Executive Director of
the Company and no existing Non-Executive Director is removed as a director of
the Company unless such an appointment or removal has been previously approved
by the nomination committee of the Board and that to the extent that any
previously approved by the nomination committees concerns the composition of
the Board which has been approved by the Board requiring the approval of the
shareholders of the Company then Gynia will vote its Ordinary Shares in
favour; and
e) The Shareholder puts certain restrictions in place to prevent
interference with the business of the Company.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Indus Gas Limited
Opinion
We have audited the Consolidated financial statements of Indus Gas Limited
(the "Company") and its subsidiary (the "Group") for year ended 31 March 2024,
which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of
Changes in Equity, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year then
ended, and Notes to the Consolidated financial statements, including material
accounting policy information. The Consolidated financial statements framework
that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and IFRS
Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union (EU).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements:
· give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group
as at 31 March 2024, and of its financial performance and its cashflows for
the year then ended;
· are in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by
the European Union (EU); and
· comply with the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
(ISAs) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the 'Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the
consolidated financial statements' section of our report. We are independent
of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for
Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants
(including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), together with
the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated
financial statements in Guernsey, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to note 6.16 in the consolidated financial statements, which
indicates that the Production Sharing Contract (PSC) of the Group expired on
20 August 2024, and at the date of approval of the financial statements, had
not yet been extended by the approving authority to ensure continued
operations of business. The Group transfers its complete production of gas to
its sole customer, Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) in accordance with
the Gas Sales and Purchase Agreement (GSPA), and pursuant to the expiry of the
PSC contract, the GSPA will expire on 30 September 2024. These events or
conditions, along with the other matters set forth in note 6.16, indicate that
a material uncertainty exists that may cast a significant doubt on the Group's
ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect
of this matter.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were
of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of
the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit
of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon,
and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Impairment of production and development assets ("P&D assets")
In responding to the key audit matter, we performed the following audit
procedures:
We identified the impairment of P&D assets as one of the most significant
assessed risks of material misstatement due to error.
At 31 March 2024, the Group held P&D assets of US$ 1,280,828,308 (31 March · We have compared the carrying value of assets to management's
2023: US$ 1,212,726,514). assessment of the recoverable amount to assess that the carrying value is not
in excess of recoverable amount.
· We agreed the recoverable amount to management's future cash flow
Recoverability of P&D assets is dependent on the expected future success model and performed the following detailed procedures over the model, along
of exploration and development activities. Under International Accounting with impairment assessment and disclosures in financial statements:
Standard (IAS) 16 "Property, plant and equipment", an impairment test is

Other information in the Annual Report
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include
the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other
information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our
report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our
responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed,
we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information,
we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the directors for the consolidated financial statements
As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities, the Directors are
responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements which
give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as
adopted by the European Union (EU), and for such internal control as the
Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors are
responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to
liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative
but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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 ISAs will
always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial
statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment
and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
· Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the
consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and
perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The
risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.
· Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in
order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company's internal control.
· Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the
Directors.
· Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' 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 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 consolidated
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the
date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause
the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
· Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial
information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express
an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for
the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain
solely responsible for our audit opinion.
· Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the
consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the
consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our
audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with
them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to
bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate
threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial
statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We
describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our
report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be
expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's
report is Michael Carpenter.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in accordance
with section 262 of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. Our audit work has
been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members those matters
we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other
purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume
responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members as a
body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to
which the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 requires us to report to you if, in
our opinion:
· proper accounting records have not been kept by the Company; or
· the Group's consolidated financial statements are not in
agreement with the accounting records; or
· we have not obtained all the information and explanations, which
to the best of our knowledge and belief, are necessary for the purposes of our
audit.

1. INTRODUCTION
Indus Gas Limited ("Indus Gas" or "the Company") was incorporated in the
Island of Guernsey on 4 March 2008 pursuant to an Act of the Royal Court of
the Island of Guernsey. The Company was set up to act as the holding Company
of iServices Investments Limited. ("iServices") and Newbury Oil Co. Limited
("Newbury"). iServices and Newbury are companies incorporated in Mauritius and
Cyprus, respectively. iServices was incorporated on 18 June 2003 and Newbury
was incorporated on 17 February 2005. The Company was listed on the
Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange on 6 June
2008. Indus Gas through its wholly owned subsidiaries iServices and Newbury
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "the Group") are engaged in the
business of oil and gas exploration, development and production.
Focus Energy Limited ("Focus"), an entity incorporated in India, entered into
a Production Sharing Contract ("PSC") with the Government of India ("GOI") and
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited ("ONGC") on 30 June 1998 for petroleum
exploration and development concession in India known as RJ-ON/06 ("the
Block"). Focus is the Operator of the Block. On 13 January 2006, iServices and
Newbury entered into an interest sharing agreement with Focus and obtained a
65 per cent and 25 per cent share respectively in the Block. The balance of 10
per cent of participating interest is owned by Focus. The participating
interest explained above is subject to any option exercised by ONGC in respect
of individual fields (already exercised for all the wells in SGL field as
further explained in note 3).
2. GENERAL INFORMATION
The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as
adopted by the European Union ('EU'). The consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis (refer to note 6.16), and are
presented in United States Dollar (US$). The functional currency of the
Company as well as its subsidiaries is US$.
3. JOINTLY CONTROLLED ASSETS
As explained above, the Group through its subsidiaries-iServices and Newbury
has an "Interest sharing arrangement" with Focus in the block, which under
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, is classified as a 'Joint operation'. All rights
and obligations in respect of exploration, development and production of oil
and gas resources under the 'Interest sharing agreement' are shared between
Focus, iServices and Newbury in the ratio of 10 per cent, 65 per cent and 25
per cent respectively.
Under the PSC, the GOI, through ONGC has an option to acquire a 30 per cent
participating interest in any discovered field, upon such successful discovery
of oil or gas reserves, which has been declared as commercially feasible to
develop.
The block is divided into 3 fields - SGL, SSF and SSG.
The SGL field received its declaration of commercial discovery on 21 January
2008. Subsequent to the declaration of commercial discovery in SGL field, ONGC
exercised the option to acquire a 30 per cent participating interest in the
discovered fields on 6 June 2008. The exercise of this option reduced the
interest of the existing partners proportionately.
However, on exercise of this option, ONGC is liable to pay its share of 30 per
cent of the SGL field development costs and production costs incurred after 21
January 2008 and are entitled to a 30 per cent share in the production of gas
subject to recovery of contract costs as explained below.
The allocation of the production from the field to each participant in any
year is determined on the basis of the respective proportion of each
participant's cumulative unrecovered contract costs as at the end of the
previous year or where there is no unrecovered contract cost at the end of
previous year on the basis of participating interest of each such participant
in the field.
On the basis of the above, gas production for the year ended 31 March 2024 is
shared between Focus, iServices and Newbury in the ratio of 10 percent, 65
percent and 25 percent, respectively. ONGC will not be entitled to any
participating interest in the production until the full exploration and
development cost and production cost is recovered by other participants.
The aggregate amounts relating to jointly controlled assets, liabilities,
expenses and commitments related thereto that have been included in the
consolidated financial statements are as follows:
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Non-current assets 1,291,623,477 1,223,434,478
Current 111,000,741
assets
116,250,255
Non-current 1,881,607 1,894,797
liabilities
Expenses (net of finance income) 5,551,919 6,342,915
Further, the SSF and SSG field also received its declaration of commerciality
on 24th November 2014. Subsequent to the declaration of commerciality for SSF
and SSG discovery, ONGC did not exercise the option to acquire 30 percent in
respect of SSG and SSF field. The participating interest in SSG and SSF field
between Focus, iServices and Newbury will remain in ratio of 10 percent, 65
percent and 25 percent respectively for exploration, evaluation and
development cost, and production revenue for SSG and SSF in the block.
4. NEW AND AMENDED STANDARDS ADOPTED BY THE GROUP

5. STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT EFFECTIVE AND YET TO BE
APPLIED BY THE GROUP
A number of new and amended accounting standards and interpretations have been
published that are not mandatory for the Group's accounts ended 31 March 2024,
nor have they been early adopted. These standards and interpretations are not
expected to have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial
statements:
i. Supplier Finance Arrangements - Amendments to IAS 7
ii. Amendment to IFRS 16 - Leases on sale and leaseback
iii. Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of Liabilities as Current or
Non-current" - effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1
January 2024.
These amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on
or after 01 January 2024.
6. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical
basis, except where specified below. A summary of the material accounting
policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements are detailed below.
6.1. BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the
parent company and all of its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 31 March
2024. The Group consolidates entities which it controls. Control exists when
the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights, to variable
returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect
those returns by using its power over the entity. Power is demonstrated
through existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities,
those which significantly affect the entity's returns.
The Group recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation:
a. its assets, including its share of any assets held jointly;
b. its liabilities, including its share of any liabilities
incurred jointly;
c. its revenue from the sale of its share of the output
arising from the joint operation;
d. its share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the
joint operation; and
e. its expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred
jointly.
Intra-Group balances and transactions, and any unrealised gains and losses
arising from intra-Group transactions are eliminated in preparing the
consolidated financial statements. Amounts reported in the financial
statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure
consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or losses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are
recognised from the date of control of acquisition, or up to the effective
date of disposal, as applicable.
6.2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
In preparing consolidated financial statements, the Group's management is
required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates
are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual
results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The management's estimates
for the useful life and residual value of tangible assets, impairment of
tangible assets and recognition of provision for decommissioning represent
certain particularly sensitive estimates. The estimates and underlying
assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the
revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Information
about significant judgments, estimates and assumptions that have the most
significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses is provided in note 25.
6.3. FOREIGN CURRENCIES
The consolidated financial statements have been presented in US$ which is the
functional currency of the Company and the group entities.
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of
the respective Group entities, using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate).
Functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in
which the entity operates.
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 and
other foreign currency transactions are recognized in consolidated statement
of comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are recorded in the functional
currency of the entity using the exchange rates at the date of the
transaction.
6.4. REVENUE RECOGNITION
In accordance with IFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers is
recognised when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation by
transferring control of a promised goods to a customer at an amount that
reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in
exchange for the sale of products, net of taxes on sales, estimated rebates
and other similar allowances.
Sale of gas
The contracts with customers establish, a single performance obligation in
relation to supply of natural gas. The transfer of control of natural gas
coincides with title passing to the customer and the customer taking physical
possession. The whole of the transaction price of the contract is allocated to
supply of natural gas and the revenue has been recognised on point in time
basis when the quantities of natural gas are supplied to the customers.
The Group has only one contractual arrangement for sale of gas to Gas
Authority of India Limited (GAIL), wherein the revenue gets recognised on the
basis of delivery i.e. point in time revenue recognition. Further, there are
no other performance obligations which the company is liable to perform. As
per the contract signed with customer, entity is eligible to recover the
amount from customer within 15 days of raising invoice.
Take or pay: Any payment received on account of lesser gas volume lifted by
the customer against the 'annual contracted volume 'for which an obligation
exists to make-up such differential gas in subsequent periods is recognised as
Contract Liabilities in the year of receipt. Revenue in respect of take or pay
obligation is recognised when such gas is actually supplied or when the
customer's right to make up is expired, whichever is earlier. For other
contracts, where the Company does not have any obligation to make up such gas
in subsequent period is directly recognised as revenue.
6.5. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment comprise development assets and other
properties, plant and equipment used in the gas fields and for administrative
purposes. These assets are stated at cost plus decommissioning cost less
accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Development assets are accumulated on a field-by-field basis and comprise
costs of developing the commercially feasible reserve, expenditure on the
construction, installation or completion of infrastructure facilities such as
platforms, pipelines and other costs of bringing such reserves into
production. It also includes the exploration and evaluation costs incurred in
discovering the commercially feasible reserve, which have been transferred
from the exploration and evaluation assets as per the policy mentioned in note
6.6. As consistent with the full cost method, all exploration and evaluation
expenditure incurred up to the date of the commercial discovery have been
classified under development assets of that field.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for
impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
values may not be recoverable.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when
no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or
loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is
included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income of the year in
which the asset is derecognized. However, where the asset is being consumed in
developing exploration and evaluation assets, such gain or loss is recognized
as part of the cost of the asset.
The asset's residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are
reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each period end. No depreciation is
charged on development assets until production commences.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided at rates estimated
by the management. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method of
depreciation, whereby each asset is written down to its estimated residual
value evenly over its expected useful life. The useful lives estimated by
the management are as follows:
Extended well test equipment 20 years
Bunk houses 5 years
Vehicles 5 years
Other assets
Furniture and fixture 5 years
Buildings 10 years
Computer equipment 3 years
Other equipment 5 years
Land acquired is recognized at cost and no depreciation is charged as it has
an unlimited useful life.
Production assets are depreciated from the date of commencement of production,
on a field-by-field basis with reference to the unit of production method for
the commercially probable and proven reserves in the particular field.
Advances paid for the acquisition/ construction of property, plant and
equipment which are outstanding as at the end of the reporting period and the
cost of property, plant and equipment under construction before such date are
disclosed as 'Capital work-in-progress'.
6.6. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS
The Group adopts the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas
interests, having regard to the requirements of IFRS 6: Exploration for and
Evaluation of Mineral Resources. Under the full cost method of accounting, all
costs of exploring for and evaluating oil and gas properties, whether
productive or not are accumulated and capitalized by reference to appropriate
cost pools. Such cost pools are based on geographic areas and are not larger
than a segment. The Group currently has one cost pool being an area of land
located in Rajasthan, India.
Exploration and evaluation costs may include costs of license acquisition,
directly attributable exploration costs such as technical services and
studies, seismic data acquisition and processing, exploration drilling and
testing, technical feasibility, commercial viability costs, finance costs to
the extent they are directly attributable to financing these activities and an
allocation of administrative and salary costs as determined by management. All
costs incurred prior to the award of an exploration license are written off as
a loss in the year incurred.
Exploration and evaluation costs are classified as tangible asset according to
the nature of the assets acquired and the classification is applied
consistently. Tangible exploration and evaluation assets are recognized and
measured in accordance with the accounting policy on property, plant and
equipment. To the extent that such a tangible asset is consumed in developing
exploration and evaluation asset, the amount reflecting that consumption is
recorded as part of the cost of the asset.
Exploration and evaluation assets are not amortized prior to the conclusion of
appraisal activities. Where technical feasibility and commercial viability is
demonstrated, the carrying value of the relevant exploration and evaluation
asset is reclassified as a development and production asset and tested for
impairment on the date of reclassification. Impairment loss, if any, is
recognized.
The group has completed exploration and evaluation phase in 2017 when field
development plan has been approved by Directorate General of Hydrocarbons
('DGH') i.e., technical feasibility and commercial viability were
demonstrable. Therefore, any cost incurred thereafter on development
activities is capitalized directly to development assets.
6.7. IMPAIRMENT TESTING FOR EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS AND
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which an asset's
cash-generating unit's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The
recoverable amount is the higher of fair value, reflecting market conditions
less costs to sell, and value in use based on an internal discounted cash flow
evaluation.
Where there are indicators that an exploration asset may be impaired, the
exploration and evaluation assets are grouped with all development/producing
assets belonging to the same geographic segment to form the Cash Generating
Unit (CGU) for impairment testing. Where there are indicators that an item of
property, plant and equipment asset is impaired, assets are grouped at the
lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows to form
the CGU. The combined cost of the CGU is compared against the CGU's
recoverable amount and any resulting impairment loss is written off in the
profit or loss of the year. No impairment has been recognized during the year.
An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any
indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or
may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset's
or CGU's recoverable amount. A previously recognized 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 recognized.
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 recognized
for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss
unless the asset is carried at a re-valued amount, in which case the reversal
is treated as a revaluation increase.
6.8. FINANCIAL ASSETS
Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Group
becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash
flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all
substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is
derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured initially at fair
value plus transactions costs, except for financial assets and financial
liabilities carried subsequently at fair value through profit or loss, which
are measured initially at fair value. Trade receivables that do not contain a
significant financing component are measured at the transaction price. The
value of interest free financial assets and financial liabilities with short
term maturities are not discounted at initial recognition if the impact is not
material. Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently
as described below.
Recognition of Financial Asset
On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at
- Amortized cost;
- Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) - debt investment;
- Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) - equity investment;
or
- Fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition,
except if and in the period the Group changes its business model for managing
financial assets.
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the
following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:
· The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold
assets to collect contractual cash flows; and the contractual terms of the
financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
· The category determines subsequent measurement and whether any
resulting income and expense is recognized in consolidated statement of
comprehensive income.
After initial recognition, financials assets at amortized cost are measured at
amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Impairment of financial assets
IFRS 9's impairment requirements use more forward-looking information to
recognise expected credit losses - the 'expected credit loss (ECL) model'. The
Group considers a broader range of information when assessing credit risk and
measuring expected credit losses, including past events, current conditions,
reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability
of the future cash flows of the instrument.
In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between:
· financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in
credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk and
· financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit
quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low.
· financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the
reporting date.
'12-month expected credit losses' are recognised for the first category while
'lifetime expected credit losses' are recognised for the second category.
The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a
significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables only, the Group
applies the simplified approach required by IFRS 9, which requires expected
lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
6.9. FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
The Group's financial liabilities include borrowings, trade payables and other
payables which are classified as financial liabilities recognized at amortized
cost. Financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortized cost using
the effective interest method except for financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss ("FVTPL"), that are carried subsequently at fair value
with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss in consolidated statement of
comprehensive income.
6.10. INVENTORIES
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value.
Inventories of drilling stores and spares are accounted at cost including
taxes, duties and freight. The cost of all inventories other than drilling
bits is computed on the basis of the first in first out method. The cost for
drilling bits is computed based on specific identification method.
6.11. ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES
Income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims
from, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting period
that are unrecovered/unpaid at the date of the statement of financial
position. They are calculated according to the tax rates and tax laws
applicable to the fiscal periods to which they relate, based on the taxable
profit for the year. All changes to current tax assets or liabilities are
recognized as a component of tax expense in consolidated statement of
comprehensive income.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the balance sheet method on
temporary differences. This involves the comparison of the carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities in the financial statement with their tax base. The
cost incurred on each field is claimed as deduction from the year of
commercial production. Deferred tax is, however, neither provided on the
initial recognition of goodwill, nor on the initial recognition of an asset or
liability unless the related transaction is a business combination or affects
tax or accounting profit. Tax losses available to be carried forward as well
as other income tax credits to the Group are assessed for recognition as
deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full. Deferred tax assets
are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be offset
against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
calculated, without discounting, at tax rates and laws that are expected to
apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or
substantively enacted at the date of the statement of financial position.
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of
tax expense in profit or loss of the year, except where they relate to items
that are charged or credited directly to other comprehensive income or equity
in which case the related deferred tax is also charged or credited directly to
other comprehensive income or equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally
enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the
deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
6.12. BORROWING COSTS
Any interest payable on funds borrowed for the purpose of obtaining qualifying
assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to
get ready for their intended use or sale, is capitalized as a cost of that
asset until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended
use or sale. While the Group has not made any specific borrowings for
construction of a qualifying asset, they have capitalized certain borrowing
costs on account of general borrowings at an average rate of borrowings for
the Company in terms of IAS 23 'Borrowing Costs'.
Any associated interest charge from funds borrowed principally to address a
short-term cash flow shortfall during the suspension of development activities
is expensed in the period. Transaction costs incurred towards an unutilized
debt facility is treated as prepayments to be adjusted against the carrying
value of debt as and when drawn.
6.13. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, at bank in demand deposits and
deposit with maturities of 3 months or less from inception, which are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash. These assets are subject to an
insignificant risk of change in value.
6.14. OTHER PROVISIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Provisions are recognized 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.
Where the Group expects some or all of provision to be reimbursed, for example
under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate
asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense
relating to any provision net of any reimbursement is recognized in profit or
loss of the year. To the extent such expense is incurred for construction or
development of any asset, it is included in the cost of that asset. If the
effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects
current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate,
the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase
in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as other finance
expenses.
Provisions include decommissioning provisions representing management's best
estimate of the Group's liability for restoring the sites of drilled wells to
their original status. Provision for decommissioning is recognized at the
present value of the estimated future expenditure when the Group has an
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made, with a corresponding addition
to property, plant and equipment which is subsequently depreciated as part of
the asset.
Commitments and contingent liabilities are not recognized in the financial
statements. They are disclosed unless the possibility of an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is not recognized but disclosed in the financial statements
when an inflow of economic benefits is probable but when it is virtually
certain than the asset is recognized in the financial statements.
In those cases, where the possible outflow of economic resource as a result of
present obligations is considered improbable or remote, or the amount to be
provided for cannot be measured reliably, no liability is recognized in the
statement of financial position and no disclosure is made.
6.15. SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports about
components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating
Decision Maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess
their performance. The Company considers that it operates in a single
operating segment being the production and sale of gas.
6.16. BASIS OF GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION
Production Sharing Contract (PSC) of the Group has expired on 20 August 2024.
Further, the contract of the Group with its sole customer will expire on 30
September 2024. At the date of signing the financial statements, considering
expiry of above mentioned two contracts and an obligation of the Group to pay
current portion of borrowings of US$ 20,575,321 (2022-23: US$ 28,458,200), in
line with the accounting and auditing framework, this indicates a material
uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the group's ability to continue
as a going concern.
The group has considered following factors relevant to support going concern.
The Group has applied for an extension of the Production Sharing Contract
(PSC) which expired on 20 August 2024. The Board is confident that the
extension will be received considering that Clause 2.1 of PSC provides that
PSC can be extended up to 35 years. Further, the Group is in process of
renewing the existing contract with the sole customer (GAIL) for supply of gas
which will expire on 30 September 2024. Moreover, the power plant in this
region is the customer of GAIL and for running that plant, the supply of gas
from the block is essential. The Board is confident that the customer contract
will be renewed soon along with PSC extension considering the ongoing
discussions with the customer and accordingly, the Group will be able to
supply the gas based on a mutually agreed contract.
Subsequent to the year end, the Group has repaid an amount of US$ 15,315,827
and accordingly the amount of US$ 5,259,494 (including interest payable) is
due for repayment within the next 12 months, which the Group expects to meet
from its internal generation of cash from operations (as evident from the
group cash flow forecast and support from largest shareholder). The Group has
sufficient cash flows to repay the maturing debt as the Group is financially
sound. The Group has net working capital of US$ 96,827,206 (2022-23: US$
104,859,475) as at 31 March 2024.
Based on business strategies and operating plans/forecasts of the Group, and
based on the above reasons, the management is confident that the Group will
continue to meet all its obligations as and when they fall due in the normal
course of business. Accordingly, these financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis.

The balances above represent the Group's share in property, plant and
equipment as per note 3. Tangible assets comprise development /production
assets in respect of SGL, SSG and SSF fields.
Development assets of SGL, SSG and SSF fields includes the amount of
exploration and evaluation expenditure transferred to development cost on the
date of the first commercial discovery declared by the Group and also includes
expenditure incurred for the drilling of further wells in these fields to
enhance the production activity.
Production assets in respect of SGL field includes completed production
facilities. The Group commenced the production facility in October 2012, and
accordingly such production assets have been depreciated since this date.
The additions in development assets also include borrowing costs US$
56,485,719 (previous year: US$ 55,091,974). The weighted average
capitalization rate on funds borrowed generally is 6.80 per cent per annum
(previous year 6.76 per cent).
The depreciation has been included in the following headings-
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Depreciation included in assets other than production assets 670,189 446,843

Total 564,181,135 529,901,040
Net deferred tax liabilities 160,142,858 144,392,951
a) The Group has recognized deferred tax assets on all of its unused tax
losses/unabsorbed depreciation considering there is convincing evidence of
availability of sufficient taxable profit in the Group in the future as
summarized in note 9.
b) The deferred tax movements during the current year have been
recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
9. INCOME TAXES
Income tax is based on the tax rates applicable on profit or loss in various
jurisdictions in which the Group operates. The effective tax at the domestic
rates applicable to profits in the country concerned as shown in the
reconciliation below have been computed by multiplying the accounting profit
by the effective tax rate in each jurisdiction in which the Group operates.
The individual entity amounts have then been aggregated for the consolidated
financial statements. The effective tax rate applied in each individual entity
has not been disclosed in the tax reconciliation below as the amounts
aggregated for individual Group entities would not be a meaningful number.
Income tax charge is arising on account of the following:
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Deferred tax charge (15,749,906) (23,994,518)
Total (15,749,906) (23,994,518)
The relationship between the expected tax expense based on the domestic tax
rates for each of the legal entities within the Group and the reported tax
expense in consolidated statement of comprehensive income is reconciled as
follows:
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Accounting profit for the year before tax 36,120,698 54,873,961
Effective tax at the domestic rates applicable to profits in the country 15,696,477 23,968,946
concerned
Tax impact of bought forward losses lapsed during the year - -
Non-taxable income 53,429 25,572
Other - -
Tax expense 15,749,907 23,994,518
The reconciliation shown above has been based on the rate 43.68 per cent
(previous year: 43.68 per cent) as applicable under Indian tax laws.
The Company's profits are taxable as per the tax laws applicable in Guernsey
where zero per cent tax rate has been prescribed for corporate. Accordingly,
there is no tax liability for the Group in Guernsey. IServices and Newbury
being participants in the PSC are covered under the Indian Income tax laws as
well as tax laws for their respective countries. However, considering the
existence of double tax avoidance arrangement between Cyprus and India, and
Mauritius and India, profits in Newbury and iServices are not likely to
attract any additional tax in their local jurisdiction. Under Indian tax laws,
Newbury and iServices are allowed to claim the entire expenditure incurred in
respect of the respective fields in the Oil Block until the start of
commercial production (whether included in the exploration and evaluation
assets or development assets) as deductible expense in the first year of
commercial production or over a period of 10 years. The Group has opted to
claim the expenditure in the first year of commercial production. As the Group
has commenced commercial production for SGL, SSG and SSF field and has
generated profits in Newbury and iServices, the management believes there is
reasonable certainty of utilization of such losses in the future years and
thus a deferred tax asset has been created in respect of these.
10. INVENTORIES

production activities. These are valued at cost determined based on policy
explained in paragraph 6.10. Inventories of US$ 275,190 (previous year: US$
552,413) were recorded as an expense under the heading 'cost of sales' in the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income during the year ended 31 March
2024. Inventories of US$ 8,623,730 (previous year: US$ 9,248,791) were

23. SEGMENT REPORTING
The Chief Operating Decision Maker being the Chief Executive Officer of the
Group, reviews the business as one operating segment being the extraction and
production of gas. The operating segments have been aggregated due to similar
economic characters and allied nature of product and services. Hence, no
separate segment information has been furnished herewith.

Group is from the sale of natural gas, its by-products (i.e., condensate) to
Oil and gas exploration companies. The revenue from the top three customer
comprises 95.10% (Previous year: 99.93%) of the Group's total revenue.
24. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Group has no contingent liabilities as at 31 March 2024 (previous year
Nil).
The Group has no commitments as at 31 March 2024 (previous year Nil).
25. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
In preparing consolidated financial statements, the Group's management is
required to make judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. The judgments and estimates are
based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions and actual
results from those estimates may ultimately differ.
Significant judgments applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial
statements are as under:
Determination of functional currency of individual entities
Following the guidance in IAS 21 "The effects of changes in foreign exchange
rates", the functional currency of each individual entity is determined to be
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates.
In the management's view each of the individual entity's functional currency
reflects the transactions, events and conditions under which the entity
conducts its business. The management believes that US$ has been taken as the
functional currency for each of the entities within the Group. US$ is the
currency in which each of these entities primarily generate and expend cash
and also generate funds for financing activities.
Full cost accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditure
The Group has followed 'full cost' approach for accounting for exploration and
evaluation expenditure against the 'successful efforts' method. As further
explained in note 6.6, exploration and evaluation assets recorded using 'full
cost' approach are tested for impairment prior to reclassification into
development assets on successful discovery of gas reserves.
Impairment of tangible assets
The Group follows the guidance of IAS 36 and IFRS 6 to determine when a
tangible asset is impaired. This determination requires significant judgment
to evaluate indicators triggering impairment. The Group monitors internal and
external indicators of impairment relating to its tangible assets. For the
purpose of impairment assessment, judgements are involved in estimating the
expected gas extraction from production assets, based on which, indicators are
identified necessary for determining that an impairment assessment is
necessary. Based on management assessment, the management has carried out
impairment testing for impairment of property, plant and equipment considering
different assumptions and projections as at 31 March 2024.
Estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:
Useful life and residual value of tangible assets
The Group reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment
at the end of each annual reporting period. Specifically, production assets
are depreciated on a basis of unit of production (UOP) method which involves
significant estimates in respect of the total future production and estimate
of reserves. The calculation of UOP rate of depreciation could be impacted to
the extent that the actual production in future is different from the
forecasted production. During the financial year, the directors determined
that no change to the useful lives of any of the property, plant and equipment
is required. The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment have been
summarized in note 7.
Recognition of provision for decommissioning cost
As per the PSC, the Group is required to carry out certain decommissioning
activities on gas wells. The ultimate decommissioning costs are uncertain and
cost estimates can vary in response to many factors including changes to
relevant legal requirements, the emergence of new restoration techniques or
experience at other production sites. The expected timing and amount of
expenditure can also change, for example, in response to changes in reserves
or changes in laws and regulations or their interpretation. As a result, there
could be adjustments to the provisions established which would affect future
financial results. The liabilities estimated in respect of decommissioning
provisions have been summarized in note 15.
Impairment testing
As explained above, management carried out impairment testing of property,
plant and equipment as on 31 March 2024. An impairment loss is recognized for
the amount by which the asset's or cash generating unit's carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount.
To determine the recoverable amount, management estimates expected future cash
flows from the Block and determines a suitable interest rate in order to
calculate the present value of those cash flows. In the process of measuring
expected future cash flows management makes assumptions about future gross
profits. These assumptions relate to future events and circumstances. In most
cases, determining the applicable discount rate involves estimating the
appropriate adjustment to market risk and the appropriate adjustment to
asset-specific risk factors.
The recoverable amount was determined based on value-in-use calculations;
basis gas reserves confirmed by an independent competent person. The gas price
has been revised to US$ 8.38 per Metric Million British Thermal Unit (MMBTU)
on Gross Calorific Value (GCV) basis from 1 April 2024 to 30 April 2024
resulting in price increase of 6.88% on the existing price. The discount rate
calculation is based on the Company's weighted average cost of capital
adjusted to reflect pre-tax discount rate and amounts to 7% p.a.
USD (In million)
Sensitivity analysis has been performed by the management with respect to the assumptions as mentioned below:
Particulars Carrying value of Property, Plant & Equipment
Reduction in projected revenue by 1% and increasing discount rate by 1% 1,520
Increase in projected revenue by 1% and decreasing discount rate by 1% 1,702
Deferred tax assets
The assessment of the probability of future taxable income in which deferred
tax assets can be utilized is based on the management's assessment, which is
adjusted for specific limits to the use of any unused tax loss or credit. The
tax rules in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates are also carefully
taken into consideration. If a positive forecast of taxable income indicates
the probable use of a deferred tax asset, then deferred tax asset is usually
recognized in full. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is monitored as
an ongoing basis based on the expected taxable income from the sale of gas.
26. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT POLICIES
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's
ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for
shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal
capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
The Group manages the capital structure and adjusts it in the light of changes
in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is
calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Debt is calculated as total
liabilities (including 'current and non-current liabilities' as shown in the
consolidated Statement of Financial Position). Total capital employed is
calculated as 'equity' as shown in the consolidated statement of financial
position plus total debt.
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Total debt (A) 1,047,708,021 1,016,825,804
Total equity (B) 363,628,576 343,443,324
Total capital employed (A+B) 1,411,336,597 1,360,269,128
Gearing ratio 74.26 % 74.75 %
The gearing ratio has marginally decreased in the current year due to
proportionately lesser increase in the draw-down of loans from related party
to fund additional exploration, evaluation and development activities for the
Group as compared to increase in equity.
The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. There
were no changes in the Group's approach to capital management during the year.
27. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
A summary of the Group's financial assets and liabilities by category are
mentioned in the table below. The carrying amounts of the Group's financial
assets and liabilities recognized at the end of the reporting period are as
follows:
31 March 2024 31 March 2023
Non-current assets

Non-current liabilities
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost:
- Long term debt 159,689,118 175,475,431
- Payable to related parties 678,410,347 633,924,200
Current liabilities
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost:
- Current portion of long-term debt 20,575,321 28,458,200
- Current portion of payable to related parties 12,656 333,611
- Trade and other payables (other than VAT payable) 1,473,006 1,550,911
Total financial liabilities measured at amortized cost 860,160,448 839,742,353
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities described above closely
approximates their carrying value on the statement of financial position date.
Risk management objectives and policies
The Group finances its operations through a mixture of loans from banks and
related parties and equity. Finance requirements such as equity, debt and
project finance are reviewed by the Board when funds are required for
acquisition, exploration and development of projects.
The Group treasury functions are responsible for managing funding requirements
and investments which includes banking and cash flow management. Interest and
foreign exchange exposure are key functions of treasury management to ensure
adequate liquidity at all times to meet cash requirements.
The Group's principal financial instruments are cash held with banks and
financial liabilities to banks and related parties and these instruments are
for the purpose of meeting its requirements for operations. The Group's main
risks arising from financial instruments are foreign currency risk, liquidity
risk, commodity price risk and credit risks. Set out below are policies that
are used to manage such risks.
Foreign currency risk
The functional currency of each entity within the Group is US$ and the
majority of its business is conducted in US$. All revenues from gas sales are
received in US$ and substantial costs are incurred in US$. No forward exchange
contracts were entered into during the year.
Entities within the Group conduct the majority of their transactions in their
functional currency other than amounts of cash held in GBP, SGD and INR. All
other monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in functional currencies
of the respective entities. The currency exposure on account of assets and
liabilities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional
currency of the entities of the Group as at 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2023 is
as follows:
Particulars Functional currency Foreign currency 31 March 2024 31 March 2023
(Amount in US$) (Amount in US$)
Short term exposure- US$ Great Britain Pound 36,730 87,781
Cash and cash equivalents
US$ Singapore Dollar 10,647 7,968
US$ Indian Rupee 147,906 27,756
Total exposure 195,283 123,505
As at March 31, 2024 every 1% (increase)/decrease of the respective foreign
currencies compared to the functional currency of the Group entities would
impact profit before tax by approximately US$ (1,952) and US$ 1,952
respectively.
Liquidity risk
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of
Directors, which has established an appropriate liquidity risk management
framework for the management of the Group's short, medium and long-term
funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity
risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve
borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash
flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and
liabilities.
The table below summaries the maturity profile of the Group's financial
liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments for the liquidity
analysis.

12,774,722 17,568,000 15,866,697 793,532,935 - 839,742,354
Interest rate risk
The Group's policy is to minimize interest rate risk exposures on the
borrowing from the banks and the sum payable to Focus Energy Limited.
Borrowing from the Gynia Holdings Ltd. is at fixed interest rate and
therefore, does not expose the Group to risk from changes in interest rate.
The interest rate on bond is fixed at 8% per annum. The Group is exposed to
changes in market interest rates through bank borrowings at variable interest
rates.
The Group's interest rate exposures are concentrated in US$.
The analysis below illustrates the sensitivity of profit and equity to a
reasonably possible change in interest rates. Based on volatility in interest
rates in the previous 12 months, the management estimates a range of 50 basis
points to be approximate basis for the reasonably possible change in interest
rates. All other variables are held constant.
Interest rate
+ 0.50 per cent - 0.50 per cent
31 March 2024 81,188 81,188
31 March 2023 278,772 (278,772)
Since the loans are taken for the general corporate purpose and according to
the Group's policy the certain borrowing costs related to development
activities are capitalized on account of general borrowings at an average rate
of borrowings to the cost of the development asset.
Commodity price risks
The Group's share of production of gas from the Block is sold to GAIL. Group
currently get gas price as per the domestic gas price amount over month by
PTAC based on 10% of the monthly average of Indian crude basket. No commodity
price hedging contracts have been entered into.
Credit risk
The Group has concentration of credit risk against the receivable balance from
customers with reputable credit standing and hence the Group does not consider
credit risk in respect of these to be significant. The management has
evaluated the impact of expected credit loss on the receivable balance. While
evaluating the same, macroeconomic factors affecting the customer's ability to
settle the amount outstanding have been considered. The Group has identified
gross domestic product (GDP) and unemployment rates of the countries in which
the customers are domiciled to be the most relevant factors. The impact was
insignificant and accordingly no adjustment has been recorded in the financial
statements.
Other receivables such as security deposits and cash and cash equivalents do
not comprise of a significant balance and thus do not expose the Group to a
significant credit risk.
The tables below detail the credit quality of the Group's financial assets and
other items, as well as the Group's maximum exposure to credit risk by credit
risk rating grades.
