One, the integrated manufacture of readymade garments. Two, the manufacture of high-end fine chemicals servicing the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Our businesses SIL is an integrated apparel manufacturer of readymade garments catering to the needs of men, women and children. In 2012, the Company acquired the business assets of Benzo Petro International Limited in the realm of high-end fine chemicals by providing intermediate products for the pharmaceutical industry and the agrochemical industry. Our promoter SIL commenced its journey in 1992 under the stewardship of Mr. Murugan Muthiah Thevar. Gradually, Sudar grew into a multi-unit apparel manufacturing organization, thereafter public company and has now emerged as one of the largest in its segment. 4 SUDA R I NDU ST RIES L IMIT ED We entered into the realm of specialty chemicals, not as a deviation from our core apparel business but as a means of diversification. The chemical business represented for us a low-capital intensive and simultaneously cash generating vertical. Since we already possessed the infrastructure from Benzo Petro International Limited, we chose to embark on the business. We chose high-end chemical products catering to the pharma and agrochemicals industry. Moreover, India being at the forefront of the cost-quality benefit providers globally, choosing to pursue this vertical made good business sense. Case in point: The core business (apparels) contributes 62% approximately to our topline and the chemicals and intermediate business (specialty chemicals) account for the remaining 38%. For the financial year 2013-14, we envisage to increase the chemical business by 294%. With a moderate scale set in each business vertical, backed by robust financial health, we are ready to climb new heights in the years to come WHY DID WE BUY CHEMICAL BUSINESS 5 A NNUA L REPO RT 20 13 - 14 Our Global Presence India 6 Dubai SUDA R I NDU ST RIES L IMIT ED Singapore London 7 A NNUA L REPO RT 20 13 - 14 FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT In this annual report, we have disclosed forwardlooking information to enable investors to comprehend our prospects and take informed investment decisions.

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS These financial statements have been prepared to comply with Accounting Principles Generally accepted in India (Indian GAAP), the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rule, 2006 and the relevant provisions of the Companies A c t , 1956. The financial statements are prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain fixed assets which are carried at revalued amounts. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest rupees in Lacs. B. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian Rule GAAP requires judgments, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialized. FIXED ASSETS Tangible Assets Tangible Assets are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes, trade discounts and rebates and include amounts added on revaluation, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. The cost of tangible assets comprises its purchase price, borrowing cost and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the assets. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of tangible asset are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. Projects under which assets are not ready for their intended use are shown as Capital Work-In-Progress. Intangible Assets Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortization/depletion and impairment loss, if any. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. Depreciation The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal and external factors. An Impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of assets exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the assets’ net selling price and the value in use. In assessing value in use the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value at the weighted average cost of capital. 101 FINANCIAL SECTION Depreciation on the fixed assets added/disposed off/ discarded during the year has been provided on WDV Basis at the rates specified under Companies Act, 1956 with reference to the month of addition/ disposal/discarding. FINANCIAL SECTION C. A NNUA L REPO RT 20 13 - 14 Significant Accounting Policies & Notes to Accounts for the year ended 31st March,2014 D. LEASES As per Accounting Standard 19 “Leases”, the disclosures as defined in the Accounting Standard are given as below: E. a) Operating Leases: Rentals are expensed on a straight line basis with reference to lease terms and other considerations. b) (i) Finance leases prior to 1st April, 2001: Rentals are expensed with reference to lease terms and other considerations. (ii) Finance leases on or after 1st April, 2001: The lower of the fair value of the assets and present value of the minimum lease rentals is capitalized as fixed assets with corresponding amount shown as lease liability. The principal component in the lease rental is adjusted against the lease liability and the interest component is charged to Statement of Profit and L o s s . c) However, rentals referred to in (a) or (b) (i) above and the interest component referred to in (b) (ii) above, pertaining to the period up to the date of commissioning of the asset are capitalized. d) All assets given on finance lease are shown as receivables at an amount equal to net investment in the lease. Initial direct costs in respect of lease are expensed in the period in which such costs are incurred. Income from lease assets is accounted by applying the interest rate implicit in the lease to the net investment. IMPAIRMENTS An asset is treated as impaired when the carrying cost of asset exceeds its recoverable value. An impairment loss is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which an asset is identified as impaired. The impairment loss recognized in prior accounting period is reversed if there has been a change in the estimate of recoverable amount. F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS As per Accounting Standard 11 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, the disclosures as defined in the Accounting Standard are given as below: G. a) Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction or that approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction. b) Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at the yearend are restated at year end rates. In case of items which are covered by forward exchange contracts, the difference between the yearend rate and rate on the date of the contract is recognized as exchange difference and the premium paid on forward contracts is recognized over the life of the contract. c) Non-monetary foreign currency items are carried at cost. d) In respect of branches, which are integral foreign operations, all transactions are translated at rates prevailing on the date of transaction or that approximates the actual rate at the date of transaction. Branch monetary assets and liabilities are restated at the yearend rates. e) Any income or expense on account of exchange difference either on settlement or on translation is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except in case of long term liabilities, where they relate to acquisition of fixed assets, in which case they are adjusted to the carrying cost of such assets. INVESTMENTS Current investments are carried at lower of cost and quoted/fair value, computed category-wise. Long-term investments are stated at cost.

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS These financial statements have been prepared to comply with Accounting Principles Generally accepted in India (Indian GAAP), the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rule, 2006 and the relevant provisions of the Companies A c t , 1956. The financial statements are prepared on accrual basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain fixed assets which are carried at revalued amounts. The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees rounded off to the nearest rupees in Lacs. B. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian Rule GAAP requires judgments, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in which the results are known/materialized. C. FIXED ASSETS Tangible Assets Tangible Assets are stated at cost net of recoverable taxes, trade discounts and rebates and include amounts added on revaluation, less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. The cost of tangible assets comprises its purchase price, borrowing cost and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use, net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the assets. Subsequent expenditures related to an item of tangible asset are added to its book value only if they increase the future benefits from the existing asset beyond its previously assessed standard of performance. Projects under which assets are not ready for their intended use are shown as Capital Work-In-Progress. Intangible Assets Intangible Assets are stated at cost of acquisition net of recoverable taxes less accumulated amortization/depletion and impairment loss, if any. The cost comprises purchase price, borrowing costs, and any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition for the intended use and net charges on foreign exchange contracts and adjustments arising from exchange rate variations attributable to the intangible assets. Depreciation Depreciation on the fixed assets added/disposed off/ discarded during the year has been provided on WDV Basis at the rates specified under Companies Act, 1956 with reference to the month of addition/ disposal/discarding. The carrying amounts of assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date if there is any indication of impairment based on internal and external factors. An Impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of assets exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the assets’ net selling price and the value in use. In assessing value in use the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value at the weighted average cost of capital. 124 SUDA R I NDU ST RIES L IMIT ED Significant Accounting Policies & Notes to Accounts for the year ended 31st March,2014 D.
