Health India Limited (HIL), incorporated under the Companies Act, 2013, is engaged in the production and distribution of medicines. It has manufacturing plants at Baddi (Himachal Pradesh) and Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh). It also imports medicines from Pharma Inc. New York (United States). On 1st Jan 2024, HIL sold 2,00,000 strips of Medicine to Dee Limited for 50 Lakhs on 60 days of credit. Cost per strip of this medicine, was - 20. (i.e.) total cost 40 Lakhs (2,00,000 strips@20). Dee Ltd. paid 20% of the amount due on 5th January, 2024. In March 2024, Dee Limited is having significant cash flow issues and is trying to raise funds through bank loan to run its operations. However, it is unable to do so and not able to release payment to HIL on due date. Subsequent to this, it has gone under liquidation on 15th March, 2024. At the time when medicine was sold by HIL to Dee Limited, there was no reason for HIL to believe that it will not be able to collect the sales proceeds from Dee Limited in future. On 1st April, 2023 HIL has made an investment of 200 Lakhs in the equity shares of Rose Limited of which 50% is made in the long-term category i.e. long-term investment and rest as temporary investment i.e. current investment. The realisable value of all such investments on 31st March, 2024 becomes 50 Lakhs as Rose Limited lost a copyright. From the given market conditions, it is apparent that the reduction in the value of investment is not temporary in nature. HIL imported medicine from Pharma Inc. for a sum. of US $ 2,50,000 on 1st January, 2024. HIL released full payment on 17th April, 2024 to Medicine Ltd.
