Provisions are recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events and it isprobable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and theamount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by theoccurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or apresent obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required tosettle the obligation, or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability. The Companydoes not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statementsA contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by theoccurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of theCompany. Contingent assets are not recognized, but its existence is disclosed in the financial statements.
Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from acontract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting the future obligations under the contract.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects,when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due tothe passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a periodof time in exchange for consideration.
As per the requirements of Ind AS 116 the company evaluates whether an arrangement qualifies to be a lease. Inidentifying a lease the company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipatedrenewals) and the applicable discount rate.
The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periodscovered by an option to extent the lease if the company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and periodscovered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. TheCompany revises the lease term if there is a change in the non-cancellable period of a lease.
Company as a lessee
The Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non-leasecomponents of the contract and allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis ofthe relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-leasecomponents.
Right of Use Assets
The Company recognises right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at thelease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount ofthe initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencementdate less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to be incurredby the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or restoring the underlying asset or site on which it islocated.
The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairmentlosses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated usingthe straight-line method from the commencement date over the lease term. Right-of-use assets are tested forimpairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable and impairmentloss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Lease Liability
The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at thecommencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, ifthat rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incrementalborrowing rate. For leases with reasonably similar characteristics, the Company, on a lease by lease basis, mayadopt either the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease or the incremental borrowing rate for the portfolioas a whole.
The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the leaseliability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount toreflect any reassessment or lease modifications. The company recognises the amount of the re-measurement oflease liability due to modification as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset and statement of profit and lossdepending upon the nature of modification. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zeroand there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognises any remainingamount of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.
The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 Leases to short-term leases of all assets thathave a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The lease paymentsassociated with these leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have beenclassified as financing cash flowsCompany as a lessor
At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease.The Company recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis overthe lease term. In case of a finance lease, finance income is recognised over the lease term based on a patternreflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease. If an arrangement containslease and non-lease components, the Company applies Ind AS 115 Revenue from contracts with customers to
a 11 rir-afo tho ncirJoraf ir^n in I ho rnnfrarf
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a saletransaction rather than through continuing use and sale is considered highly probable.
A sale is considered as highly probable when decision has been made to sell, assets are available for immediate salein its present condition, assets are being actively marketed and sale has been agreed or is expected to be concludedwithin 12 months of the date of classification. Non-current assets held for sale are neither depreciated noramortised.
Non current Assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value lesscost to sale and are presented separately in the Balance Sheet.
xvii. Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
The company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a non-financial asset or agroup of non-financial assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the company estimates the amount ofimpairment loss.
For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows fromcontinuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets is considered ascash generating unit.
An impairment loss is calculated as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and recoverable amount.Losses are recognized in statement of profit and loss and reflected in an allowance account. When the companyconsiders that there are no realistic prospects of recovery of the asset, the relevant amounts are written off. If theamount of impairment loss subsequently decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an eventoccurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversedthrough profit or loss.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) isincreased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does notexceed the carrying amount that would have been in place had there been no impairment loss been recognized forthe asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately inStatement of Profit and Loss, taking into account the normal depreciation/amortization.
xviii. Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equityinstrument of another entity. Financial instruments also include derivative contracts such as foreign currencyforeign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and currency options; and embedded derivatives in the hostcontract.
i. Financial assetsClassification
The Company classifies financial assets in the following measurement categories :
a. Those measured at amortised cost and
b. Those measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value throughprofit or loss on the basis of its business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cashflow characteristics of the financial asset.
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs that are attributable to theacquisition of the financial asset, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss.Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulationor convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that thecompany commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Measured at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cashflows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments ofprincipal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using theeffective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or
premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation isincluded in finance income in the statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment arerecognised in the statement of profit and loss. This category generally applies to trade and otherreceivables.
Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
A financial asset ismeasured at FVOCI if both of the following criteria are met:
a) The objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling thefinancial assets, and
b) The asset's contractual cash flows represent SPPI.
Financial assets included within the FVOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reportingdate at fair value. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (OCI).However, the company recognizes interest income, impairment losses & reversals and foreign exchangegain or loss in the profit and loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previouslyrecognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to profit and loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVOCIdebt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
Financial Asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
FVTPL is a residual category for financial asset. Any financial asset, which does not meet the criteria forcategorization as at amortized cost or as FVOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.
In addition, the group company may elect to classify a financial asset, which otherwise meets amortized cost orFVOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates ameasurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as 'accounting mismatch').
Financial assets included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized inthe profit and loss.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a company of similar financial assets)is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the company's balance sheet) when:
i. The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
ii. The company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation topay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through'arrangement; and either (a) the company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset,or (b) the company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset,but has transferred control of the asset.
iii. When the company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass¬through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership.When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nortransferred control of the asset, the company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent ofthe company's continuing involvement. In that case, the company also recognises an associated liability.The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights andobligations that the company has retained.
iv. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at thelower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that thecompany could be required to repay.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure:
a) Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities,deposits, and bank balance.
b) Trade receivables.
The Company follows 'simplified approach' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on:
i. Trade receivables which do not contain a significant financing component.
The application of simplified approach recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at eachreporting date, right from its initial recognition.
ii. For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines thatwhether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. If credit risk has notincreased significantly, 12-month ECL is used to provide for impairment loss. However, if credit risk hasincreased significantly, lifetime ECL is used. If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of the instrumentimproves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, then the entityreverts to recognising impairment loss allowance based on 12-month ECL.ii. Financial liabilitiesClassification
The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financialliabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities, including derivatives that are liabilities, shall besubsequently measured at fair value.
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss oramortised costs.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables,net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings, financial guaranteecontracts and derivative financial instruments.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financialliabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classifiedas held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includesderivative financial instruments entered into by the group that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedgerelationships as defined by Ind-AS 109. Separated embedded derivatives are also classified as held for tradingunless they are designated as effective hedging instruments.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated at the initialdate of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind-AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair valuegains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/loss are not subsequentlytransferred to P&L. However, the company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changesin fair value of such liability are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost usingthe EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well asthrough the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs thatare an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, orthe terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as thederecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carryingamounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Derivative financial instruments
The company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts, interest rate swaps andforward commodity contracts, to hedge its foreign currency risks, interest rate risks and commodity price risks,respectively. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which aderivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried asfinancial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet when andwhen the company has a legally enforceable right to set off the amount and it intends either to settle then an a netbasis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Measurement of fair values
The Company's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for financialinstruments.
The Company has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The managementregularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such asbroker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the management assesses the evidenceobtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of Ind AS,including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.
When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible.Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuationtechniques as follows.
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, eitherdirectly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy,then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as thelowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.
The Company recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting periodduring which the change has occurred.
xix. Government Grants
Government Grants and subsidies from Government are recognised when there is reasonable certainty that thegrant/subsidy will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. Government grant related toincome are recognised in the Statement of Profit & Loss on a systematic basis over the period in which the Companyrecognizes as expenses the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate.
Where the Grant relates to an asset value, it is recognised as deferred income, and amortised over the expecteduseful life of the asset.
xx. Guarantee Commission
In respect of Corporate Guarantees given by the Company on behalf of its Subsidiaries on the Ind As transitionaldate, notional income is booked at rate prevalent in market for similar guarantee and the income is amortised overthe period of the guarantee. The notional income for guarantees given in subsequent periods is treated as deemedinvestment, added to the carrying cost of investment in Subsidiary and amortised over the period of the guarantee.
C. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Art ?D1 ^ arp ac unrlpr
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
(i) Market risk
(a) Currency risk;
(b) Interest rate risk;
(ii) Credit risk ; and
(iii) Liquidity risk.
Risk management framework
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. TheCompany's primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of risks on its financial performance.The Company's risk management assessment policies and processes are established to identify and analyses the risks facedby the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Thesepolicies and processes are reviewed by management regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company'sactivities. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee are responsible for overseeing these policies and processes.
i) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of changes in the market prices on account of foreign exchange rates, interest rates and Commodityprices, which shall affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of its financial instruments. The objective ofmarket risk management is to manage and control market risk exposure within acceptable parameters, while optimisingthe returns.
i)(a) Foreign Currency risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have impact on the profit and loss account, where anytransaction has more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than thefunctional currency of the entity.
Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject torisks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in U.S.dollar, against the functional currency.
The Company, as per its risk management policy, uses foreign exchange and other derivative instruments primarily tohedge foreign exchange and interest rate exposure. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments fortrading or speculative purposes.
Exposure to foreign currency risk
The Company has no foreign currency exposure as at the year end. (Previous Year Nil)
The Company, as per its risk management policy, uses foreign exchange and other derivative instruments primarily to hedgeforeign exchange and interest rate exposure. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading orspeculative purposes.
i)(b) Interest rate risk exposure variable rate
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because ofchanges in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates toborrowings from financial institutions. The company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relatesprimarily to the borrowing from bank and financial institution. Currently Company is not using any mitigating factor tocover interest rate risk.
A reasonably possible change of 1% in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased/(decreased) equity and profit orloss by amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular, foreign currency exchange rates, remainconstant. This calculation also assumes that the change occurs at the balance sheet date and has been calculated based on riskexposures outstanding as at that date. The period end balances are not necessarily representative of the average debt outstandingduring the period.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet itscontractual obligations and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customer. The Company establishes anallowance for doubtful debts and impairment that represents its estimate on expected loss model.
A. Trade and other receivables
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Thedemographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry has an influence on credit risk assessment. Creditrisk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness ofcustomers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties apart from those already givenin financials, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors or specificcountry risks.
iii) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. TheCompany manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet itsliabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to theCompany's reputation. The Company has obtained fund based lines from various banks. The Company also constantlymonitors various funding options available in the debt and capital markets with a view to maintaining financial flexibility.Exposure to liquidity risk
The table below analyses the Company's financial liabilities into relevant maturities groupings based on theircontractual maturities for:
Note : The inflows/(outflows) disclosed in the above table represent the contractual undiscounted cash flows relating toderivative financial liabilities held for risk management purposes and which are not usually closed out beforecontractual maturity. The disclosure shows net cash flow amounts for derivatives that are net cash-settled and grosscash inflow and outflow amounts for derivatives that have simultaneous gross cash settlement.
The Company's policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustainfuture development of the business. Management monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.The Company monitors capital using a ratio of 'adjusted net debt' to 'adjusted equity'. For this purpose, adjusted net debt isdefined as total liabilities, comprising interest-bearing loans and borrowings and obligations under finance leases, less cash andcash equivalents. Equity comprises of Equity share capital and other equity.
The Company's policy is to keep the ratio at optimum level. The Company's adjusted net debt to equity ratio was as follows:-
i. The company has not granted Loans or Advances in the nature of loans to promoters, directors, KMPs and the relatedparties (as defined under Companies Act, 2013,) either severally or jointly with any other person, that are: (a) repayableon demand or (b) without specifying any terms or period of repayment.
ii. The company neither have any Benami property nor any proceedings have been initiated or pending against thecompany for holding any benami property under the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 1988 (45 of 1988) and therules made thereunder.
iii. The company is not declared wilful defaulter by any bank or financial Institution or other lender.
