Annual Report

In FY2016, we put our customers at the heart of everything we did. Our


endeavour was to deliver a world class experience to cinema goers at
all times. We made cinema-going a delightful experience – right from
the ease of booking, providing the widest range of movies, reviewing
movie schedules, offering a wide range of lip-smacking cinema food, all
set in the midst of cutting edge cinema exhibition technology. We work
tirelessly to become the favourite cinema chain of choice and deliver
a broad range of films at a great value price, offering our customers a
good choice of content on each visit. Going forward, we continuously
seek to re-invent our concept of “value” and “entertainment” for our
patrons, and strengthen the emotional connect of our customers to
our brand.

Today, we are one of the largest multiplex chains in India. Driven by


strong box office performance, we expect our peer position to continue
on the back of strong content delivery from the movie industry’s
pipeline. Through a growing circuit of high quality cinemas and our
strong emphasis on customer service excellence, we are offering high-
quality venues with excellent operational delivery and a retail offering
that suits customers’ tastes. We are constantly working towards raising
the bar for operational excellence and a national footprint to sustain
our industry leadership.

In FY2016, we crossed the mark of 100 properties, 400 screens and


100,000 seats. Additionally, we have signed a landmark deal with IMAX
Corporation, for five IMAX® theatre systems, the biggest deal in the
country.

We entertained 53.4 million patrons in FY2016, up by 30% over


FY2015. We also added 51 screens to our portfolio, taking our network
to a total screen count of 420 screens, spread across 107 properties in
57 cities in FY2016. Our occupancy rates improved and our Average
Ticket Price and Spend Per Head expanded on account of higher footfalls
stemming from a strong movie line-up. Our non-box office revenues
also witnessed good growth. Food & Beverage revenue continued to be
our bright spot enjoying 39% YoY growth with improved profitability.
Our advertising revenue also grew by 12% on YoY basis, with further
headroom for ample growth in FY2017. Moving ahead, we aim to up
the ante with new screen additions and overall volume growth.

Revenue Streams
Our F&B revenue per footfall increased
from ` 55 in FY2015 to ` 58 in FY2016
due to a combination of increase in the

We took initiatives to improve F&B
revenue by changing the menu based on

Future Outlook
Our key strategy is to go beyond movies
to reach customers in newer ways,
maximise revenue per patron and increase
the frequency of movie-going by driving
downstream revenue opportunities. We
will continue to maximise our revenue
streams outside of the traditional
theatre exhibition model, with a clear
focus on driving improvement in footfall
monetisation. Strong content and higher
footfalls will assist in upscaling advertising
revenues. For increasing profitability,
we are focusing on high value, long term
deals and taking initiatives to monetise
on-screen and off-screen advertising
revenue, such as monetising our lobby
areas to improve our advertising revenue

MANAGEMENT’S
Discussion & Analysis
The Film Industry in India grew by 9.3% in 2015, with
Hollywood and regional releases primarily contributing
to growth. Films are expected to grow at 10.5%
CAGR in 2016. Lack of screen density continues to
be a key constraint to sustained growth, especially for
Bollywood content.

Industry Overview
India Media & Entertainment Industry
Year 2015 brought an affirmative change for the Indian Media & Entertainment (M&E)
industry. Coming off the lukewarm days of 2014, the year 2015 was that of a comeback
and an enthusiastic response from the audiences. It was that of rolling up one’s sleeves
and getting down to task. The M&E sector grew by 12.8% to ` 1,157 billion in 2015,
from ` 1,026 billion in 2014, according to the KPMG-FICCI Media and Entertainment
Industry Report 2016. A healthy advertising environment, with around 15% growth –
propelled several parts of the industry to unprecedented growth. Going forward, the
industry is set to grow by 14.3% CAGR to ` 2,260 billion by 2020. Industry growth will
be led by advertising revenue which is expected to grow to ` 994 billion at a CAGR of
15.9% by FY2020, as per the Report.

Film Industry – India


The Film Industry in India grew by 9.3% in 2015, with Hollywood and regional releases
primarily contributing to growth. Films are expected to grow at 10.5% CAGR in 2016.
Lack of screen density is a key constraint to sustained growth, especially for Bollywood
content. While exhibitors recorded a significant growth in regional and Hollywood film
collections, the collection for Hindi films was almost flat as compared to the previous
years. On the other hand, strong regional content seemed to have gained acceptance
even among the non-native language speaking audience, thereby improving the share
of regional films in the overall revenue pie.

Implementation of GST
The implementation of nation-wide Goods and Services Tax (GST) is expected to have
a remarkable impact on the Exhibition Industry. GST will subsume some of the major
Central and State Taxes such as Entertainment Tax, Service Tax, Value Added Tax,
Central Sales Tax, Entry Tax and Octroi which affects the multiplex industry. Rates
and statues of these taxes are different at Central and States as on date. With the
current deliberations around GST rate being in the range of 18% to 20%, there could
be a reduction of tax incidence for the multiplex industry. Further, the industry will be
able to set off the taxes paid for expenses such as Lease Rent, Maintenance and other
charges which affects the Profit & Loss for Multiplex Companies as of now. Overall,
the GST is expected to add 2% to 4% to the EBITDA margins depending on the GST
Rate. Additionally, the industry will have ease of doing business due to uniformity of Tax
Laws in the country.

Our Strategies in Play


Strong Visibility from New Screens
We are adding screens to increase our presence across India. Over the past three
years, on an average we have added ~47 screens per annum. Going forward, our
target is to add ~50-60 screens per annum, which will drive footfall growth. Footfalls
are being driven by the addition of more screens and regular organic growth. Visibility
from new screens is being backed by signed agreements.

Our Value Drivers for Growth


Rising Market Opportunity
India has a population of ~1.2 billion, growing at 1.3% per year. The demographic
statistics are favourable, with 35% of the population in the working category. Of the
total 8,100 screens in India, 2,100 are in multiplex format and the rest are single screens,
which provides a huge opportunity for the growth of multiplex players. Watching
movies in a theatre is the prime entertainment option for people in India. The country
is one of the world’s largest film entertainment market (with over 1,600 movie releases
and around 2 billion footfalls annually).

The average ticket price is ~US$ 1 for a single screen and US$ 2.6 for a multiplex.
The multiplex segment is highly organised and largely dominated by four key players
(combined screen count of 1,484).

Increasing Acceptance of 3D Exhibition


Over the last few years, a steep rise in 3D movies is resulting in increased footfalls year
on year.

Delivering the Business
The Company has signed a five-screen deal with IMAX Corporation for IMAX®

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY, TECHNOLOGY ABSORPTION AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE EARNINGS AND


OUTGO
Pursuant to Section 134 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 8 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, the Company
has taken the following energy conservation measures:
yy LED Retrofitting has been done at 6 properties across Maharashtra (Pune Bundgarden, Pune FNS, Pune Amanora, Thane,
Ghatkopar Neelyog and Dahisar).
yy The Company has installed the Harmonic Filters in main power supply at Pune and Chennai to reduce the Electronic
Harmonic Distortions which will give clean power to equipment & will result in reduction of electricity consumption.
yy Auto Voltage Regulator (AVR) is installed at Pune & Lucknow which is maintaining constant Voltage in the said unit irrespective
of any voltage fluctuation from the electricity board. In effect the rate of failure of bulbs, tubes and other components has
been reduced considerably.
yy Power factor is being maintained with the use of capacitor banks and auto power factor correction meter. These banks
are used to neutralize the inductive current by providing capacitive current. As a result, the power factor improves and
the Company gets rebate as may be applicable on energy bills from electricity distribution companies. The overall current
consumption from the equipment has also reduced which leads to increase life cycle of the equipments like Motors and
Heaters.
yy All multiplexes have implemented Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) program where the schedule for all the
engineering and projection equipments are chalked out in advance with the PPM chart. A benefit of the PPM program is to
improve the efficiency of the machines and minimizing breakdowns. As a part of PPM program the air conditioning system
gets overhauled and chemical dosing is used to recover the loss of ageing plus wear and tear. As a result, the electrical
current required for getting the desired result has reduced.
yy The operation timing of HVAC (Heat Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system and temperature is controlled with the help
of Building Management System software (BMS) at some of the units of the Company.
yy Eco-friendly source of electricity generated by the wind mill for the multiplex at Vadodara, Anand and Bharuch is used
partially.
yy Eco-friendly source of electricity generated through Mini hydro power plant for the Multiplex at Vijayawada is used partially.
yy Timers are being used to optimize the operational hours of lighting including other load within the premises. We have
started energy conservation meeting for all the units so as to create awareness about the energy conservation. The units like
Vijayawada, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Thane, Malleshwaram (Bangalore), Rajarhat, Central Mall (Indore) have installed these
Timers for common area lightings and Signages. Digital Timers are also installed for the AHU (Air Handling Units) which can
precisely control the operation hours of AHU according to the schedule of the movies. Same process is being standardized
for all upcoming multiplexes.
yy The Company has successfully installed Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) for Audi AHU motors in most of the Multiplexes.
This helps us to control the speed of Aircon motor as per the temperature and the occupancy. It helps to optimize energy
consumption for Air conditioning system.
yy Introduced movement sensor in toilets and back-office areas. This sensor functions upon the physical movement which
helps to reduce electrical energy. This is being standardized for all upcoming multiplexes.

The Company continues to use the latest technology for giving high quality movie viewing experience to its valued guests.

Report on the Standalone Financial Statements


We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of INOX Leisure Limited (“the Company”), which comprise
the Standalone Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2016, the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss and the Standalone Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements


The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the
Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted
in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts)
Rules, 2014. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of
the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection
and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy
and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a
true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone financial statements based on our audit.

We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to
be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Those
Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers
internal financial control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order
to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company’s Directors, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on
these standalone financial statements.

Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial
statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with
the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2016 and its profit
and cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Annexure II to Independent Auditor’s Report to the members of INOX Leisure Limited on the standalone financial
statements for the year ended 31st March 2016 – referred to in paragraph 2(f) under the heading “Report on Other
Legal and Regulatory Requirements” of our report of even date.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act,
2013 (“the Act”)
We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements over financial reporting of INOX Leisure
Limited (“the Company”) as of 31st March 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the
Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls


The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal
control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control
stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued
by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct
of its business, including adherence to Company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds
and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information,
as required under the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”).

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our
audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and
deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both
applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those
Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained
and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with
reference to financial statements system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness.

Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting


A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts
and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting


Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
Annual Report
15
16
Annexure to Independent Auditor’s Report
to the members of INOX Leisure Limited

projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk
that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial control system with reference to financial
statements system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively
as at 31st March 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering
the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting issued by ICAI.

(ii) The Central Government has vide its notification no. G.S.R. 914(E) dated 29th December, 2011, amended AS 11
‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’, notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules,
2006, to the extent it relates to the recognition of losses or gains arising on restatement of long-term foreign
currency monetary items in respect of accounting periods commencing on or after 1st April 2011. As stipulated in
the Notification, the Company has exercised the option to adopt the following policy irrevocably.

Long term foreign currency monetary items are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet
date and the net exchange gain / loss on such conversion and on settlement of the liability, is adjusted to the cost of
the asset, where the long-term foreign currency monetary items relate to the acquisition of a depreciable capital
asset (whether purchased within or outside India), and depreciated over the balance life of the assets.

l) Treasury Shares:

of consideration paid by the Company to acquire the shares of erstwhile Fame. These shares of the Company held
by INOX Benefit Trust are classified and are presented as a deduction from Shareholders’ Funds. Difference between
the cost and the amount received at the time sale of shares by the Trust, is recorded separately as ‘Reserve on Sale of
Treasury Shares’ under Reserve and Surplus.

m) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities:
A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but
probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there is possible obligation or a present obligation in respect
of which the likelihood of outflow of resource is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

n) Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
liabilities, at the end of the accounting year and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Although
these estimates are based on the management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about
these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets or liabilities in future periods.

During the current year, pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation (“the Scheme”) under Section 391 to 394 of the
Companies Act 1956, sanctioned by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi vide order dated 10th February 2016, SCL has

become effective on 23rd March 2016 viz. the date on which the certified copy of the order of the Delhi High Court
sanctioning the Scheme is filed with the Registrar of Companies, Gujarat and Registrar of Companies, Delhi. The
Scheme has accordingly been given effect to in the accounts. Accordingly, all the movable and immovable properties
including plant and machinery, equipments, furniture, fixtures, vehicles, stocks and inventory, leasehold assets and
other properties, etc. and all the debts, liabilities, duties and obligations including contingent liabilities of SCL are
vested in the Company retrospectively with effect from 8th August, 2014. Since SCL was a wholly owned subsidiary of

theatres in India.
c. The amalgamation is accounted for under the “Pooling of Interest” method as prescribed in Accounting Standard (AS)

liabilities and reserves of SCL as at 8th August, 2014 have been recorded at their existing carrying amounts and in the
same form as at the date of amalgamation. The amount of share capital of SCL and investment held by the Company in
SCL is adjusted against each other and as per the Scheme, the difference has been adjusted against the Amalgamation
Reserve, Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares and General Reserve.

the benefit of the Company.

In terms of Accounting Standard (AS 31) ‘Financial Instruments’ (which is not yet mandatory), internationally generally
accepted accounting practices and for more appropriate presentation of the financial statements, the Company’s interest
in the Trust (at cost), being akin to Treasury Shares, in accordance with their substance and economic reality, is deducted
from Shareholders’ Fund. Any profit or loss arising from sale of Treasury Shares by the Trust is being recorded separately as
‘Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares’ under Reserves and Surplus, being transactions relating to the capital of the Company.
Accordingly, during the previous year the profit of ` 15,331.27 Lakh on sale of 1,55,81,478 Treasury Shares was directly
recognised in ‘Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares’ under Reserves and Surplus.

The balance equity shares 43,50,092 of the Company, held by the Trust, being Treasury Shares, are excluded while computing

the scheme of ESOP framed by the Company in this regard. The Company has provided finance of ` 75.00 Lakh to the ESOP
Trust for subscription of these shares at the beginning of the plan.

As per the Guidance Note on Accounting for Employee Share-based Payments issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India, shares allotted to the ESOP Trust but not transferred to employees is required to be reduced from Share Capital
and Reserves. Out of the 500,000 equity shares allotted to the Trust, 204,999 shares have been transferred to employees.
Accordingly, for the balance number of shares, the Company has reduced the Share Capital by the amount of face value of equity
shares and Share Premium Account by the amount of share premium on such shares. The Company has also given effect to the
above in the calculation of its Basic and Diluted earnings per share.

There are no outstanding stock options as at 31st March 2016.

The compensation costs of stock options granted to employees under the Employees’ Stock Option Plan were accounted by
the Company using the intrinsic value method. In accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting for Employee Share-
based Payments issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the accounting value of options was amortized over
the vesting period. Consequently, ‘Employee benefits expense’ in Note no. 27 includes ` Nil (previous year ` 1.36 Lakh) being
the amortization of employee compensation. Had the Company adopted fair value method in respect of options granted, the
employee compensation cost in the previous year would have been higher by ` 0.97 Lakh, profit before tax lower by ` 0.97 Lakh
and the basic and diluted earnings per share would have been lower by less than Re. 0.01.

Annexure to Independent Auditor’s Report

Annexure to Independent Auditor’s Report to the members of INOX Leisure Limited on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 31st March 2016 – referred to in paragraph (f) under the heading “Report on Other
Legal and Regulatory Requirements” of our report of even date.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act,
2013 (“the Act”)
In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of INOX Leisure Limited (hereinafter referred to as “the
Holding Company”) as of and for the year ended March 31, 2016, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial
reporting of the Holding Company and its subsidiary company and jointly controlled entity, which are companies incorporated
in India, as of that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls


The respective Board of Directors of the Holding company and its subsidiary company and jointly controlled entity which are
companies incorporated in India, are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal
control over financial reporting criteria established by the respective companies considering the essential components of internal
control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”)
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and
maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct
of its business, including adherence to the respective company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and
detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable
financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”).

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Holding Company’s, its subsidiary company’s and jointly controlled entity’s,
internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance
Note and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent
applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by
ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and
maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system
over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included
obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness
exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on
the Holding Company’s, and its subsidiary company’s and jointly control entity’s, internal financial controls with reference to
financial statements system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting


A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts
and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the
company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Annexure to Independent Auditor’s Report

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting


Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also,
projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk
that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion
In our opinion, the Holding Company and its subsidiary company and jointly controlled entity, which are companies incorporated
in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal
financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March 2016, based on the internal control over
financial reporting criteria established by the Holding Company and its subsidiary and jointly controlled entity, considering the
essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note issued by ICAI.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION :-


The CFS are prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard (AS) 21 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and Accounting
Standard (AS) 27 “Financial Reporting of Interest in Joint Ventures”, specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013,
read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014.

The CFS have been prepared on the following basis.


a) The financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been combined on a line by line basis by adding
together the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Inter-company balances, inter-
company transactions and unrealised profits are fully eliminated. Unrealised losses resulting from Inter-company
transactions are eliminated unless cost cannot be recovered.
b) Interest in joint venture is reported using proportionate consolidation method.
c) Goodwill on consolidation represents excess of the cost to the parent of its investment in a subsidiary over the parent’s
portion of equity of the subsidiary, at the date on which investment in the subsidiary is made, and is recognized as an
asset in the consolidated financial statements. The Goodwill on consolidation is evaluated for impairment whenever
there is any indication that its carrying amount may have been impaired. When the cost to the parent of its investment
in a subsidiary is less than that the parent’s portion of equity of the subsidiary, the difference is treated as capital
reserve in the consolidated financial statements.
d) The CFS are prepared using uniform accounting policies for the like transactions and other events in similar
circumstances, except where it is not practicable to do so. The CFS are presented, to the extent possible, in the same
manner as the Parent Company’s separate financial statements.
e) The Minority interest in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries consist of the amount of equity attributable to
minority at the date on which investment in subsidiary is made and the minority’s share of movement in equity since
the date the parent subsidiary relationship comes into existence. The losses applicable to the minority, to the extent
they exceed the minority interest in the equity of the subsidiary, are adjusted against the majority interest, until the
minority’s share of losses so absorbed by the majority has been recovered.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


a) Revenue Recognition:
Revenue from Box Office is recognized as and when the movie is exhibited. Revenue from Sale of Food & Beverages is
accounted at the point of sale. These revenues are net of refunds and complimentary. Conducting fees are in respect
of charges received from parties to conduct business from the Company’s Multiplexes and the revenue is recognized
as per the contractual arrangements. Advertisement income is recognized on exhibition of the advertisement or over
the period of contract, as applicable. Income from sale of power is recognized on the basis of actual units generated
and transmitted to the purchaser. Dividend income is recognised when the unconditional right to receive payment is
established. Income from interest on deposits, loans and interest-bearing securities is recognised on time proportion
basis.

b) Fixed Assets:

expenses and expenditure incurred during construction period of multiplexes are capitalized to various eligible assets
in respective multiplexes. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of qualifying fixed assets
are capitalised. In respect of accounting period commencing on or after 1 April 2011, consequent to the insertion of
para 46A in Accounting Standard of (AS 11): The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, cost of depreciable
capital assets include foreign exchange differences arising on translation of long term foreign currency monetary items.

in case of other software. Cost of goodwill and movie script acquired and cost of web-site developed is amortized over a
period of five year.

d) Impairment of assets:

carrying amount of the Company’s asset. An impairment loss is recognized wherever the carrying amount of an asset
exceeds its recoverable amount. 

e) Investments:
Long-term investments are carried at cost. Provision for diminution is made to recognize the decline, other than
temporary, in the values of these investments. Current investments are carried at lower of the cost and fair value.

f) Inventories:

actuarial valuation techniques, using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in the
statement of profit and loss.

consideration of prudence, on timing differences, being the difference between taxable income and accounting
income that originates in one period and are capable of reversal in one or more subsequent periods. The deferred
tax in respect of timing differences which reverse during the tax holiday period is not recognised to the extent the
Company's gross total income is subject to the deduction during the tax holiday period. Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT)
paid on the book profits, which gives rise to future economic benefits in the form of tax credit against future income-
tax liability, is recognized as an asset in the Balance Sheet if there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay
normal tax within the period specified for utilization of such credit.

i) Borrowing Cost:
Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the
cost of such assets. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for intended
use. All other borrowing costs are charged to Statement of Profit and Loss.

the terms of the respective lease agreements.

k) Foreign Currency Transactions:


(i) Transactions in foreign currency are recorded in rupees by applying the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Gains or losses on settlement of the transactions are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. At the Balance
Sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currency are restated by applying the closing rate, and the
difference arising out of such conversion is recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except as mentioned in
para (ii) below.
(ii) The Central Government has vide its notification no. G.S.R. 914(E) dated 29th December, 2011, amended
Accounting Standard (AS 11) ‘The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates’, notified under the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, to the extent it relates to the recognition of losses or gains arising on
restatement of long-term foreign currency monetary items in respect of accounting periods commencing on or
after 1st April 2011. As stipulated in the Notification, the Company has exercised the option to adopt the following
policy irrevocably.

Long term foreign currency monetary items are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet
date and the net exchange gain / loss on such conversion and on settlement of the liability, is adjusted to the cost of
the asset, where the long-term foreign currency monetary items relate to the acquisition of a depreciable capital
asset (whether purchased within or outside India), and depreciated over the balance life of the assets.

l) Treasury Shares:
Pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation of Fame India Limited (‘Fame’) and its subsidiaries with the Company (see
note no. 31), equity shares of the Company have been issued to INOX Benefit Trust (the Trust) against the equity
shares of Fame held by the Company. These shares are recognised as Interest in INOX Benefit Trust at the amount
of consideration paid by the Company to acquire the shares of erstwhile Fame. These shares of the Company held by
INOX Benefit Trust are akin to treasury shares and are presented as a deduction from Shareholders’ Funds. Difference
between the cost and the amount received at the time sale of shares by the Trust, is recorded separately as ‘Reserve
on Sale of Treasury Shares’ under Reserve and Surplus.

m) Provisions and Contingent Liabilities :


A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but
probably will not, require an outflow of resources. When there is possible obligation or a present obligation in respect
of which the likelihood of outflow of resource is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.

n) Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Indian GAAP requires the management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
liabilities, at the end of the accounting year and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Although
these estimates are based on the management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about
these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
assets or liabilities in future periods.

30. ACQUISITION OF SATYAM CINEPLEXES LIMITED AND IT AMALGAMATION WITH THE COMPANY
a. During the previous year, the Company had acquired 100% of the equity shares in Satyam Cineplexes Limited (“SCL”)

During the current year, pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation (“the Scheme”) under Section 391 to 394 of the
Companies Act 1956, sanctioned by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi vide order dated 10th February 2016, SCL has
been amalgamated with the Company with effect from 8th August, 2014 (“the Appointed Date”). The Scheme has
become effective on 23rd March 2016 viz. the date on which the certified copy of the order of the Delhi High Court
sanctioning the Scheme is filed with the Registrar of Companies, Gujarat and Registrar of Companies, Delhi. The
Scheme has accordingly been given effect to in the accounts. Accordingly, all the movable and immovable properties
including plant and machinery, equipments, furniture, fixtures, vehicles, stocks and inventory, leasehold assets and
other properties, etc. and all the debts, liabilities, duties and obligations including contingent liabilities of SCL are vested
in the Company retrospectively with effect from 8th August, 2014. Since SCL was wholly owned by the Company, no
shares were exchanged on its amalgamation with the Company.

b. Nature of business of the amalgamating company: SCL was engaged in the business of operating multiplex cinema
theatres in India.

c. The amalgamation is accounted for under the “Pooling of Interest” method as prescribed in Accounting Standard
(AS) 14 ‘Accounting for Amalgamation’, as notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. Accordingly, the
assets, liabilities and reserves of SCL as at 8th August, 2014 have been recorded at their existing carrying amounts
and in the same form as at the date of amalgamation. The amount of share capital of SCL and investment held by the
Company in SCL is adjusted against each other and as per the Scheme, the difference has been adjusted against the
Amalgamation Reserve, Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares and General Reserve.

The effect of the Scheme as given in the accounts, in accordance with the Scheme, is summarized as under:

to the shareholders of the transferor companies on 10th July 2013, including 2,44,31,570 equity shares to INOX Benefit Trust

In terms of Accounting Standard (AS31) ‘Financial Instruments’ (which is not yet mandatory), internationally generally
accepted accounting practices and for more appropriate presentation of the financial statements, the Company’s interest
in the Trust (at cost), being akin to Treasury Shares, in accordance with their substance and economic reality, is deducted
from Shareholders’ Fund. Any profit or loss arising from sale of Treasury Shares by the Trust is being recorded separately as
‘Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares’ under Reserves and Surplus, being transactions relating to the capital of the Company.
Accordingly, during the previous year the profit of ` 15331.27 Lakh on sale of 1,55,81,478 Treasury Shares was directly
recognised in ‘Reserve on sale of Treasury Shares’ under Reserves and Surplus.

The balance equity shares 43,50,092 of the Company, held by INOX Benefit Trust, being Treasury Shares, are excluded while
computing the Earnings Per Share.

Companies Act, 2013, with effect from April 1, 2014, as against the useful lives adopted earlier as per Schedule XIV to
the Companies Act, 1956. The carrying amount of fixed assets, where the remaining useful life as at 1st April 2014 as per
Schedule II was Nil, aggregating to ` 512.56 Lakh (net of deferred tax credit of ` 264.00 Lakh), was recognized in the opening
balance of retained earnings in the previous year.

34. EMPLOYEES’ STOCK OPTION PLAN


In the year ended 31st March 2006, the Company had issued 500,000 equity shares of ` 10 each at a premium of ` 5 per share
to INOX Leisure Limited – Employees’ Welfare Trust (“ ESOP Trust”) to be transferred to the employees of the Company
under the scheme of ESOP framed by the Company in this regard. The Company has provided finance of ` 75 Lakh to the
ESOP Trust for subscription of these shares at the beginning of the plan.

151
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31st March 2016

As per the Guidance Note on Accounting for Employee Share-based Payments issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India, shares allotted to the ESOP Trust but not transferred to employees is required to be reduced from
Share Capital and Reserves. Out of the 500,000 equity shares allotted to the Trust, 204,999 shares have been transferred to
employees. Accordingly, for the balance number of shares, the Company has reduced the Share Capital by the amount of
face value of equity shares and Share Premium Account by the amount of share premium on such shares. The Company has
also given effect to the above in the calculation of its Basic and Diluted earnings per share.

There are no outstanding stock options as at 31st March 2016.

The compensation costs of stock options granted to employees under the Employees’ Stock Option Plan were accounted by
the Company using the intrinsic value method. In accordance with the Guidance Note on Accounting for Employee Share-
based Payments issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the accounting value of options was amortized
over the vesting period. Consequently, ‘Employee benefits expense’ in Note no. 27 includes ` Nil (previous year ` 1.36
Lakh) being the amortization of employee compensation. Had the Company adopted fair value method in respect of options
granted, the employee compensation cost in the previous year would have been higher by ` 0.97 Lakh, profit before tax
lower by ` 0.97 Lakh and the basic and diluted earnings per share would have been lower by less than Re. 0.01.

35. IN RESPECT OF TAXATION MATTERS


a) The Group’s contention that the amount of entertainment tax exemption availed for some of its multiplexes is a capital
