Indus Gas Limited and its subsidiaries
("Indus" or the "Company")
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements for the six month period ended 30 September 2019
Indus Gas Limited (AIM:INDI.L), an oil & gas exploration and development company, is pleased to report its interim results for the six month period ending 30 September 2019.
Consolidated reported adjusted revenues, operating profit and profit before tax for the interim period ending 30 September 2019 were US$ 27.69m (US$ 27.78 interim 2018), US$ 26.30m (US$ 23.42m interim 2018) and US$ 26.11m (US$ 23.57m interim 2018) respectively.
The Company has continued to make provision for a notional deferred tax liability of US$ 1.68m (US$ 5.85m interim 2018), in accordance with IFRS requirements.
The Petroleum & Natural Gas Regulatory Board ("PNGRB") have invited bids for the laying of a gas pipeline from RJ-ON/6 Block for a new pipeline route so that the pipeline tariff is minimized. Approvals from the Directorate General of Hydrocarbons ('DGH') and Government had already been received for the development and enhanced production covering a total field area of 2176 sq. km with approved gas reserves of 1.8 tcf.
Commenting, Peter Cockburn, Chairman of Indus, said:
"While the approval of an integrated Field Development Plan ('FDP') for SSG and SSF and a revised FDP for SGL is already in place, the evacuation of gas through a new pipeline at an appropriate tariff will accelerate the monetization of our gas reserves."

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") is 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. Consequent to this, the Group acquired an aggregate of 90 per cent participating interest in the Block and the balance 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 wells (already exercised for SGL field as further explained in Note 3).
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are for the six months ended 30 September 2019 and are presented in United States Dollar (US$), which is the functional currency of the parent company and other entities in the Group. They have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European union, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2019.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with the policies that were applied for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are for the six months ended 30 September 2019 and have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors.
3. JOINTLY CONTROLLED ASSETS
The Group participates in an unincorporated joint arrangement with Focus wherein the Group's interest in this arrangement was classified as jointly controlled assets. Following implementation of IFRS 11: Joint Arrangements, the Group's interest in this arrangement is now classified as 'Joint operation'. All rights and obligations in respect of exploration, development and production of oil and gas resources under the 'Participating 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 had 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. Subsequent to the declaration of commercial discovery in SGL field on 21 January 2008, ONGC had exercised the option to acquire a 30 per cent participating interest in the discovered fields on 6 June 2008. The exercise of this option would reduce the interest of the existing partners proportionately. 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. For recovery of past contract cost, production from the field is first allocated towards exploration and evaluation cost and thereafter towards development cost.
On the basis of above, gas production for the period ended 30 September 2019 is shared between Focus, iServices and Newbury in the ratio of 10 percent, 65 percent and 25 percent respectively.
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:

Further, the SSF and SSG field has also received its declaration of commerciality on 24(th) 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 SSF and SSG field. The participating interest in SSF and SSG field between Focus, Iservices and Newbury will remain in ratio of 10 percent, 65 percent and 25 percent respectively for exploration and evaluation cost and production revenue for SSF and SSG in the block.
4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were consistent with those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 March 2019.
5. SEGMENT REPORTING
Operating segments are identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the management 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.

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 March 2019.
14. INCOME TAX CREDIT
Indus Gas profits are taxable as per the tax laws applicable in Guernsey where zero per cent tax rate has been prescribed for corporates. 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 in respect of the Oil Block incurred 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 Company has opted to claim the expenditure incurred in respect to the SGL field. As the Group has commenced commercial production in 2011 and has generated profits in Newbury and iServices, the management believes there is reasonable certainty of utilisation of such losses in the future years and thus a deferred tax asset has been created in respect of these.
15. BASIS OF GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION
As at 30 September 2019, the Group had current liabilities amounting to US$ 48,353,400 majorities of which is towards current portion of borrowings from banks and related parties. As at 30 September 2019, the amounts due for repayment (including interest payable) within the next 12 months for long term borrowings are US$ 40,909,823 which the Group expects to meet from its internal generation of cash from operations.
Further the group is contemplating to raise funds which will be used for planned capital expenditures.
