Fair Value Hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are
(a) recognised and measured at fair value
(b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements.
To provide an indication about the reliability of input used in determining fair value, the company has classified the financial
instruments in three levels prescribed under the Ind AS.
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the
measurement date.
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Credit Risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer
contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities ( primarily
trade receivables) including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other
financial instruments.
i) Trade Receivables and contract asset
Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Companyâs established policy, procedures and
control relating to customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally
carrying no credit terms. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. Trade receivables are primarily
from Navy (being department of Govt. of India), hence the credit risk is considered low. Further the Company
receives advance against orders which also mitigates the credit risk.
ii) Financial Instruments and cash deposits
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Management in accordance with
the companyâs investment policy. Investment of surplus funds are made only in accordance with the Department
of Public Enterprises(DPE) guidelines on investemtnt of surplus funds, with the approved banks and within credit
limits assigned to each bank. The limits applicable to single bank and public / private sectors as per the DPE
guidelines minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterpartyâs potential
failure to repay the principal and interest.
b) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial
liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the
nature of the underlying business, the Company maintains sufficient cash and liquid investments available to meet
its obligation.
The Companyâs liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid
assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory
requirements, if any.
c) Market Risk
i) Foreign currency risk and sensitivity
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of
changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk since it imports components from foriegn vendors. Foreign
exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a
currency that is not the companyâs functional currency (?). In most of the Contracts, the gains / losses from forex
exchange fluctuations are passed on / borne by the customer of the Company. Therefore, the foreign exchange
risk and sensitivity of the Company is Nil.
ii) Foreign Currency Risk Exposure
The companyâs exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period expressed in INR (foreign
currency amount multiplied by closing rate), are as follows:

contract. Since the contract has not yet been finalised, no revenue has been recognised during the year and the entire
amount has been charged to Statement of Profit & Loss.
61 The project cost as estimated on 31.03.2025 for certain ongoing projects is likely to exceed the contractual revenue from
these contracts, therefore difference between Estimated project cost and Contractual revenue needs to be provided as
expected loss on onerous contracts. The expected loss arising from such contracts is required to be recognized in the
current financial statements. The total estimated loss is proportionately adjusted through revenue, based on Percentage
completion Method as on 31st March, 2025 and the balance loss, is recognised by creating a provision for expected loss
on onerous contracts. The total estimated loss is 7 53,217 Lakhs, of which 7 1,079 Lakhs is adjusted through revenue,

valuation. An additional provision amounting to 7 7,918 Lakhs has been accounted for in the books (Previous Year:
7 114 Lakhs). This provision will be reversed, if the inventory items are subsequently put to productive use.

(PMA), Department of Public Enterprises (DPE), Government of India (GOI) in the arbitration case of Mazagon Dock

accepted the settlement proposal of DCIL and signed the settlement agreement. The settlement amount has been
finalized at 7 1,516 Lakhs against the provision for doubtful debts of 7 2,751 Lakhs (including interest). Consequently,
the balance outstanding of 7 1,235 Lakhs has been charged as bad debts, to Statement of Profit & Loss. The recovery
of 7 303 Lakhs is shown as reversal of provision and balance provision is carried forward as balance recovery is pending
from DCIL.

In the Financial Year 2020-21, the Company has changed its accounting policy regarding classification of Provident Fund contribution from Defined Contribution Plan to Defined Benefit Plan. This change in accounting policy was applied and observed that the net assets available for the benefits are in excess in comparison to the present value of retirement benefits. Hence, there is no impact on accounts of the company during the current year.
In accordance with Indian law, all eligible employees of the Company in India are entitled to receive benefits under the provident fund plan in which both the employee and employer (at a determined rate) contribute monthly to a Trust set up by the Company to manage the investments and distribute the amounts entitled to employees. This plan is a defined benefit plan as the Company is obligated to provide its members a rate of return which should, at the minimum, meet the interest rate declared by Government administered provident fund. The contributions made by Company and the shortfall of interest, if any are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss under employee benefit expenses. in accordance with an actuarial valuation of provident fund liabilities on the basis of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the assumptions as mentioned below, there is no deficiency in the interest cost as the present value of the expected future earnings of the fund is greater than the expected amount to be credited to the individual members based on the expected guaranteed rate of interest of Government administered provident fund.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Note 46 - Financial risk management
Credit Risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities ( primarily trade receivables) including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.
Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally carrying no credit terms. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. Trade receivables are primarily from Navy (being department of Govt. of India), hence the credit risk is considered low. Further the Company receives advance against orders which also mitigates the credit risk.
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Management in accordance with the company''s investment policy. Investment of surplus funds are made only in accordance with the Department of Public Enterprises(DPE) guidelines on investemtnt of surplus funds, with the approved banks and within credit limits assigned to each bank. The limits applicable to single bank and public / private sectors as per the DPE guidelines minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty''s potential failure to repay the principal and interest.
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the nature of the underlying business, the Company maintains sufficient cash and liquid investments available to meet its obligation.
The Company''s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements, if any.
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk since it imports components from foriegn vendors. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company''s functional currency (''). In most of the Contracts, the gains / losses from forex exchange fluctuations are passed on / borne by the customer of the Company. Therefore, the foreign exchange risk and sensitivity of the Company is Nil.
