    1.00 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    1.01 This section provides the accounting policies to be followed in respect of loan

    accounting.

    Borrowing cost

    1.02 Borrowing cost includes the following items :

    Interest and commitment charges on borrowings.

    Amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings

    Amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of

    borrowings

    Finance charges in respect of assets acquired under finance leases or under other

    similar arrangements

    Exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that theyare regarded as an adjustment to interest costs

    Charges towards prepayment / foreclosure of loans

    Charges on account of delayed payments

    1.03 Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction orproduction of a qualifying asset (i.e. an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to

    get ready for its intended use or sale) should be capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. The

    borrowing costs should be capitalized till such time the asset is capitalized / ready for use. Otherborrowing costs should be recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

    Changes in Foreign Exchange rates

    1.04 The necessity for adjustment on account of exchange rate variation arises in:

    repayment of loan - the difference between the exchange rate at which the

    repayment is effected and the rates at which the loan is appearing in the books

    interest payments the difference between the rates at which the interest is accrued

    in the books and the rates at which the interest is actually paid

    restatement of asset and liability at the year-end the assets and liabilities at theyear-end should be restated in the books of account based on the closing exchange

    rate.

    1.05 The transactions in foreign currency should be recorded at the rates prevailing as on the

    date of the transaction. At the year end, foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities

    should be restated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the year-end.

    Manual on Loan Accounting 2

    1.06 The exchange rate variation on restatement of the asset/ liability should be adjusted in the

    carrying cost of the fixed assets or charged to profit and loss account, as the case may be

    1.07 The exchange rate variation (ERV) on account of repayment and restatement of loan

    liability relating to qualifying assets should be capitalised. The ERV on interest component

    relating to the qualifying assets should be capitalised only during the construction period andthereafter should be charged to revenue.

    1.08 The procedure to be followed and the basis of computing and allocating interest cost and

    the ERV to capital assets has been provided in the manual on Fixed Assets Accounting.

    under the Companies Act, 1956 as well as the relevant Accounting Standards.

    Process: Loans from Government of India (GOI) Process No: 01

    Funded by bilateral/ multilateral agencies

    Process Brief:

    Certain loans from bilateral/multilateral agencies are routed through GOI who in turn on lendsuch loans to NTPC as budgetary support. The loan is given for specific projects and the

    packages / parts of packages/ items that are to be funded out of the loan are also specified in theloan sanction.

    In case of such loans, the expenditure incurred by NTPC should be compiled and a claim for

    reimbursement should be lodged on the concerned agency. The claim is approved by the agencyand the amount is remitted to the GOI. NTPC in turn should apply to the GOI to draw the

    amount as loan periodically. The claims should be lodged periodically as specified by the

    agency.

    These loans are received and repaid in local currency by NTPC. The interest on the loans is alsopaid in local currency. Hence, there is no ERV component on account of these loans.

    The section concerned should ensure that:

    The claims are lodged in the specified formats and within the time frame prescribed

    No duplicate claims are filed

    The claims are filed on the basis of the actual expenditure incurred i.e. cash basis.

    Each reimbursement received from GOI is treated as a separate loan.

    That the claims filed are periodically reconciled with the books of account

    The loans are approved by the Board of directors

    .

    Process : Cash Credit Process No : 04

    This process lays down the procedure to be followed in respect of utilisation of cash credit limits

    from the Banks. An arrangement for cash credit facility by way of sanction of cash credit limits

    is entered into with the Banks. The cash credit facility would entitle the company to utilise funds

    to the extent of the limits as sanctioned by the Banks for financing the working capitalrequirement of the company.

    The cash credit limits to be obtained from the bank should be based on the average working

    capital requirement of the company as assessed at the beginning of each financial year based on

    the Operation and Maintenance budget estimates as approved for the company.

    The overall cash credit limit of the company may be allocated to the stations or it could be

    retained as a central pool at Corporate Centre. In case the limits are to be allocated to the

    stations, the quantum may be determined based on the working capital requirement of theindividual stations as projected in the budget estimates of the O & M budget of the respective

    stations.

    The cash credit limit availed should be periodically reviewed to ensure that the actual utilisation

    of the limit is within the sanctioned limit. Based on the actual utilisation the limit should be

    increased / decreased.

    In case the cash credit limits are allocated to the stations, the day-end balances of all the cash

    credit accounts of the stations should be transferred to the central pool account with the

    respective banks at CC. At CC, the closing balance should be reviewed on a daily basis to ensureutilisation within the sanctioned limit and for revision of the limits to the stations, if required.

    An MIR should be generated by the Cash and Bank Section on a weekly basis providing an

    analysis of the cash credit limit and the actual utilisation during the period. The MIR should be

    submitted to the ED (F)/ Director (F) for review and necessary action i.e. for increasing/decreasing the cash credit limit.

    Accounting for cash credit

    In case the cash credit limit is allocated to the stations and at the day end the closing balance is

    transferred to the central pool at Corporate Centre then the transfer of the balance to CC is to beaccounted for by the stations and similarly an accounting entry would be passed at CC for the

    balances received in the central pool.

    The accounting entries should be passed through the Inter Unit Cash Credit Accounts.
