| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Lal Kila Companies Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£) and amounts are rounded to the nearest pound. |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Turnover represents the rendering of goods and services in connection with organic teas. |
| Turnover is recognised when the entity meets the obligations to deliver goods and services to a customer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the sale. |
| Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
| Development costs are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of 5 years. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Improvements to property | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| Financial instruments |
| Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

| Going concern |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, not withstanding the company's net liabilities, as the director of the company continues to provide support as necessary and intends to ensure that there is adequate working capital for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these accounts. Thus the director continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. |
