Accounting Policies of Restaurant Brands Asia Ltd. Company

Mar 31, 2025

2.2 Material accounting policies

The material accounting policies applied in the
preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
These policies have been consistently applied to all the
years presented, unless otherwise stated.

a. Foreign currency and translations
Functional and presentation currency

The Company''s financial statements are presented
in Indian Rupees ("''"), which is also the Company''s
functional currency.

Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially
recorded by the Company at its functional currency
using spot rates at the date; the transaction first
qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into the functional currency at exchange
rates at the reporting date. Exchange differences
arising on settlement or translation of monetary
items are recognised in statement of profit or loss
as expense or income in the year in which they occur
or arise.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of
historical cost in a foreign currency are translated
using the exchange rates at the dates of the
initial transactions.

b. Fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments at fair
value at each balance sheet date.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. The fair value measurement is
based on the presumption that the transaction to sell
the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability
or,

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most
advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market
must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured
using the assumptions that market participants
would use when pricing the asset or liability,

assuming that market participants act in their best
economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financiat asset
takes into account a market participant''s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in
its highest and best use or by setting it to another
market participant that would use the asset in its
highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are
appropriate in the circumstances and for which
sufficient data are available to measure fair value,
maximising the use of relevant observable inputs
and minimising the use of unobservable inputs:

Att assets and liabilities for which fair value is
measured or disctosed in the financiat statements
are categorised within the fair value hierarchy,
described as follows, based on the lowest tevet input
that is significant to the fair vatue measurement as
a whote:

• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in
active markets for identicat assets or tiabitities

• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which
the towest tevet input that is significant to
the fair vatue measurement is directty or
indirectty observabte

• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the
towest tevet input that is significant to the fair
vatue measurement is unobservabte

For assets and tiabitities that are recognised in
the financiat statements on a recurring basis,
the Company determines whether transfers have
occurred between tevets in the hierarchy by re¬
assessing categorisation (based on the towest tevet
input that is significant to the fair vatue measurement
as a whote) at the end of each reporting period.

Management determines the poticies and procedures
for both recurring fair vatue measurement, such as
derivative instruments and investment in mutuat
fund measured at fair vatue, and for non-recurring
measurement, such as assets hetd for distribution
in discontinued operations.

For the purpose of fair vatue disctosures,
management has determined ctasses of assets and
tiabitities on the basis of the nature, characteristics
and risks of the asset or tiabitity and the tevet of the
fair vatue hierarchy as exptained above.

At each reporting date, management anatyses the
movements in the vatues of assets and tiabitities,
which are required to be re-measured or re¬
assessed as per the Company''s accounting poticies.
For this anatysis, the management verifies the major
inputs apptied in the tatest vatuation by agreeing
the information in the vatuation computation to
contracts and other retevant documents.

c. Revenue recognition

Revenue from contracts with customer

Revenues from contracts with customers are
recognised when controt has been transferred at
an amount that reftects the consideration to which
the Company expects to be entitted in exchange for
those goods. The Company acts as the principat in att
of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary
obtigor in att the revenue arrangements as it has
pricing tatitude and is atso exposed to inventory and
credit risks.

An entity cottects Goods and Services Tax ("GST")
on behatf of the government and not on its own
account. Hence, it is exctuded from revenue i.e.
revenue is net of GST.

Sale of food and beverages

The Company recognises revenue from sate of food
through Company''s owned stores and third party
ontine ptatforms, and are recognised when the
items are detivered to or carried out by customers.

Scrap sale

Sate of scrap is recognised upon transfer of controt
of products to the customers which coincides with
their detivery to customer.

Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when Company''s
right to receive dividend is estabtished by the
reporting date.

Income from sub-franchisee operations

Sub-Franchisee income inctudes onetime initiat fees
and royatty income on sates. One time initiat fees
are non-refundabte and are recognised over the
term of contract. Royatty income is recognised on
accruat basis based on the terms of the agreement
over a period of time.

Interest income

For att financiat instruments measured at amortised
cost, interest income is recorded using the effective

interest rate ("EIR"), which is the rate that exactly
discounts the estimated future cash payments or
receipts through the expected life of the financial
instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate,
to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
When calculating the effective interest rate, the
Company estimates the expected cash flows by
considering all the contractual terms of the financial
instrument but does not consider the expected
credit losses.

Contract balances
Contract assets

A contract asset is the right to consideration in
exchange for goods or services transferred to the
customer. If the Company performs by transferring
goods or services to a customer before the
customer pays consideration or before payment is
due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned
consideration that is conditional

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company''s right to
an amount of consideration that is unconditional
(i.e., only the passage of time is required before
payment of the consideration is due). Refer to
accounting policies of financial assets in section
(m) Financial instruments - initial recognition and
subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer
goods or services to a customer for which the
Company has received consideration (or an amount
of consideration is due) from the customer. If a
customer pays consideration before the Company
transfers goods or services to the customer, a
contract liability is recognised when the payment is
made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier).
Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when
the Company performs under the contract.

d. Taxes

Tax expense for the year comprises of current tax
and deferred tax.

Current income tax

Current income tax is measured at the amount
expected to be paid to the tax authorities in
accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961. The
income tax expense or credit for the period is the
tax payable on the current period''s taxable income
based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted

by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities
attributable to temporary differences and to
unused tax losses. The current income tax charge
is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or
substantively enacted at the end of reporting period
in India where the Company operates and generates
taxable income.

Current income tax relating to items recognised
outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit
or loss (either in other comprehensive income
or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in
correlation to the underlying transaction either in
OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically
evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with
respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulations are subject to interpretation and
considers whether it is probable that a taxation
authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment.
The group shall reflect the effect of uncertainty for
each uncertain tax treatment by using either most
likely method or expected value method, depending
on which method predicts better resolution of
the treatment

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet
approach on temporary differences between the
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts for financial reporting purposes at the
reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised
for all taxable temporary differences, except:

• When the deferred tax liability arises from the
initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or
liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and, at the time of the transaction,
affects neither the accounting profit nor
taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets
are recognised for all deductible temporary
differences, the carry forward of unused tax
credits and any unused tax losses.

• Deferred tax assets are recognised to the
extent it is probable that taxable profit will
be available against which the deductible
temporary differences, and the carry forward
of unused tax credits and unused tax losses
can be utilised, except:

• When the deferred tax asset relating to the
deductible temporary difference arises from
the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a
transaction that is not a business combination

and, at the time of the transaction, affects
neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit
or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is
reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient
taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of
the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised
deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each
reporting date and are recognised to the extent that
it has become probable that future taxable profits
will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the
year when the asset is realised or the liability is
settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that
have been enacted or substantively enacted at the
reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside
profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss
(either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation
to the underlying transaction either in other
comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are
offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off
current tax assets against current tax liabilities and
the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity
and the same taxation authority.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at the
cost of acquisition including incidental costs related
to acquisition and installation less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if
any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any
directly attributable cost of bringing the asset
to its working condition for its intended use and
initial estimate of restoration liabilities. Any trade
discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at
the purchase price.

When significant parts of property, plant and
equipment are required to be replaced in regular
intervals, the Company recognises such parts as
separate component of assets. When an item of
PPE is replaced, then its carrying amount is de¬
recognised from the balance sheet and cost of the
new item of PPE is recognised. Further, in case the
replaced part was not being depreciated separately,

the cost of the replacement is used as an indication
to determine the cost of the replaced part at the
time it was acquired.

Capital work in progress comprises cost of property,
plant and equipment (including related expenses)
that are not yet ready for their intended use at
the reporting date and it is carried at cost less
accumulated impairment losses.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of
property, plant and equipment are measured as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and
carrying amount of the assets and are recognised
in the statement of profit and loss when the asset
is derecognised.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment

Depreciation is provided on straight line method on
a pro-rata basis from the date of use. The rates of
depreciation are based on technical evaluation of the
economic life of assets by the management, which
are given below and are equal to or greater than the
corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule II to the
Companies Act, 2013:

The useful lives, residual values and depreciation
method of PPE are reviewed, and adjusted
appropriately, at-least as at each reporting date to
ensure that the method and period of depreciation
are consistent with the expected pattern of economic
benefits from these assets. The effect of any change
in the estimated useful lives, residual values and / or
depreciation method are accounted prospectively,
and accordingly the depreciation is calculated over
the PPE''s remaining revised useful life.

f. Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured
on initial recognition at cost. Following initial
recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost
less accumulated amortisation and accumulated
impairment loss, if any. An intangible asset is
recognized, where it is probable that the future
economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow
to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably
measured. The Company capitalises software costs
where it is reasonably estimated that the software
has an enduring useful life. The Company capitalises
one-time initial franchisee fees paid for opening of
each store.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed
as either finite or indefinite. There are no intangible
assets assessed with indefinite useful life.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on
a straight line basis over the useful economic life
and assessed for impairment whenever there is an
indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
The amortisation period and the amortisation method
for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are
reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period.
Changes in the expected useful life or the expected
pattern of consumption of future economic benefits
embodied in the asset are considered to modify the
amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and
are treated as changes in accounting estimates.
The amortisation expense on intangible assets with
finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit
and loss unless such expenditure forms part of
carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line
basis as follows:

Gains or losses arising from the de-recognition of
an intangible asset are measured as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount of the asset and are recognised
in the statement of profit and loss when the asset
is derecognised.

g. Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the
acquisition, construction or production of an asset
that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to

get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised
as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing
costs are expensed in the period in which they
occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other
costs that an entity incurs in connection with the
borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes
exchange differences to the extent regarded as an
adjustment to the borrowing costs.

h. Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception
whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is,
if the contract conveys the right to control the use of
an identified asset for a period of time in exchange
for consideration.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and
measurement approach for all leases, except
for short-term leases and leases of low-value
assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities
to make lease payments and right-of-use assets
representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Right-of use assets

The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the
commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the
underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use
assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses
and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease
liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes
the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial
direct costs incurred, deferred lease components
of security deposits and lease payments made at
or before the commencement date less any lease
incentives received. The present value of the
expected cost for the restoration of an asset after
its use is included in the cost of the respective asset
if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain
ownership of the leased asset at the end of the
lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter
of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-
of-use assets are subject to impairment.

Right-of-Use Leasehold Restaurants and
Restaurant Equipments are amortised over a period
of lease term.

Lease Liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the
Company recognises lease liabilities measured at
the present value of lease payments to be made

over the tease term. The lease payments include
fixed payments (including in-substance fixed
payments) less any lease incentives receivable,
variable lease payments that depend on an index
or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under
residual value guarantees. The lease payments
atso inctude the exercise price of a purchase option
reasonabty certain to be exercised by the Company
and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if
the lease term reflects the Company exercising the
option to terminate. The variable lease payments
that do not depend on an index or a rate are
recognised as expense in the period on which the
event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments,
the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate
at the tease commencement date if the interest rate
implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.
After the commencement date, the amount of lease
tiabitities is increased to reftect the accretion of
interest and reduced for the lease payments made.
In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities
is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in
the tease term, a change in the in-substance fixed
tease payments or a change in the assessment to
purchase the underlying asset.

The determination of whether an arrangement is
(or contains) a tease is based on the substance of
the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The
arrangement is, or contains, a tease if futfitment of
the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific
asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right
to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not
explicitly specified in an arrangement.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Company applies the short-term lease
recognition exemption to its short-term teases of
restaurant and equipment (i.e., those teases that
have a lease term of 12 months or less from the
commencement date and do not contain a purchase
option). It atso appties the tease of tow-vatue
assets recognition exemption to teases of office
equipment''s that are of low value. Lease payments
on short-term teases and teases of tow-vatue assets
are recognised as expense in statement of profit
and toss.

i. Inventories

Inventories (comprising of food, beverages,
condiments, paper & packing materiats and

suppties) are vatued at tower of cost (determined
on weighted average method) and net reatisabte
vatue. However, materiats and other items hetd for
use the production of inventories are not written
down betow cost if the finished products in which
they witt be incorporated are expected to be sotd at
or above cost. Net realisable value is the estimated
setting price in the ordinary course of business,
less estimated costs of completion and estimated
costs necessary to make the sale. Company has
changed inventory valuation method from first in
first out to weighted average method during the
year, pursuant to change in enterprise resource
planning application. The impact of change in
method is not materiat.

j. Impairment of non- financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date,
whether there is an indication that an asset may be
impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual
impairment testing for an asset is required, the
Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount.
An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of
an asset''s or cash - generating unit''s (CGU) fair
value less costs of disposal and its value in use.
Recoverable amount is determined for an individual
asset, unless the asset does not generate cash
flows that are largely independent of those from
other assets or group of assets. When the carrying
amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable
amount, the asset is considered impaired and is
written down to its recoverabte amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash
flows are discounted to their present value using a
pre-tax discount rate that reftects current market
assessments of the time value of money and the
risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value
tess costs of disposat, recent market transactions
are taken into account. If no such transactions can
be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
These calculations are corroborated by valuation
multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded
companies or other available fair value indicators.
The Company bases its impairment calculation on
detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which
are prepared separately for each of the Company''s
CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated.

For assets, an assessment is made at each reporting
date to determine whether there is an indication
that previously recognised impairment losses no
longer exist or have decreased. If such indication
exists, management estimates the asset''s or CGU''s

recoverable amount. A previously recognised
impairment loss is reversed only if there has been
a change in the assumptions used to determine
the asset''s recoverable amount since the last
impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is
limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does
not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined,
net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been
recognised for the asset in prior years. Such
reversal is recognised in the statement of profit
and loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued
amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a
revaluation increase.

2.2 Material accounting policies

a. Current and non-current classification

The Company presents assets and Liabilities in the

balance sheet based on current and non-current

classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities respectively.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

b. Foreign currencies

Functional and presentation currency

The Company''s financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees ("H"), which is also the Company''s functional currency.

Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at its functional currency using spot rates at the date; the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in statement of profit or loss as expense or income in the year in which they occur or arise.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

c. Fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the

measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability or,

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs:

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

Management determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as derivative instruments and investment in mutual

fund measured at fair value, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for distribution in discontinued operations.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, management has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

At each reporting date, management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities, which are required to be re-measured or reassessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

d. Revenue recognition

Revenue from contracts with customer

Revenues from contracts with customers are recognised when control has been transferred at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company acts as the principal in all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in all the revenue arrangements as it has pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.

An entity collects Goods and Services Tax ("GST") on behalf of the government and not on its own account. Hence, it is excluded from revenue i.e. revenue is net of GST.

Sale of food and beverages

The Company recognises revenue from sale of food through Company''s owned stores and third party online platforms, and are recognised when the items are delivered to or carried out by customers.

Scrap sale

Sale of scrap is recognised upon transfer of control of products to the customers which coincides with their delivery to customer.

Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when Company''s right to receive dividend is established by the reporting date.

Income from sub-franchisee operations

Sub-Franchisee income includes onetime initial fees and royalty income on sales. One time initial fees are non-refundable and are recognised over the term of contract. Royalty income is recognised on accrual

basis based on the terms of the agreement over a period of time.

Interest income

For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate ("EIR"), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Contract balances Contract assets

A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company''s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section (n) Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

e. Taxes

Tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax.

Current income tax

Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961. The

income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period in India where the Company operates and generates taxable income.

Current income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The group shall reflect the effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment by using either most likely method or expected value method, depending on which method predicts better resolution of the treatment

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except :

• When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses.

• Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

• When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

f. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at the cost of acquisition including incidental costs related to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of restoration liabilities. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. The present value of the expected cost for the restoration of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in regular intervals, the Company recognises such parts as separate component of assets. When an item of PPE is replaced, then its carrying amount is de-recognised from the balance sheet and cost of the new item of PPE is recognised. Further, in case the replaced part was not being depreciated separately, the cost of the replacement is used as an indication to determine the cost of the replaced part at the time it was acquired.

Capital work in progress comprises cost of property, plant and equipment (including related expenses)

that are not yet ready for their intended use at the reporting date and it is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Gains or losses arising from derecognition of property, plant and equipment are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

The cost of property, plant and equipment at April 01 2016, the Company''s date of transition to Ind AS, was determined with reference to its carrying value recognised as per the previous GAAP (deemed cost), as at the date of transition to Ind AS.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment

Depreciation is provided on straight line method on a pro-rata basis from the date of use. The rates of depreciation are based on technical evaluation of the economic life of assets by the management, which are given below and are equal to or greater than the corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013:

The useful lives, residual values and depreciation method of PPE are reviewed, and adjusted appropriately, at-least as at each reporting date to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets. The effect of any change in the estimated useful lives, residual values and / or depreciation method are accounted prospectively, and accordingly the depreciation is calculated over the PPE''s remaining revised useful life.

Site restoration liability

The Company records a provision for site restoration costs associated with the stores opened. Site restoration costs are provided at the present value

of expected costs to settle the obligation using estimated cash flows and are recognised as part of the cost of the particular asset. The cash flows are discounted at a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the site restoration provision. The unwinding of the discount is expensed as incurred and recognised in the statement of profit and loss as a finance cost. The estimated future costs of site restoration are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate. Changes in the estimated future costs or in the discount rate applied are added to or deducted from the cost of the asset.

g. Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. An intangible asset is recognized, where it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. The Company capitalises software costs where it is reasonably estimated that the software has an enduring useful life. The Company capitalises one-time initial franchisee fees paid for opening of each store.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. There are no intangible assets assessed with indefinite useful life.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on a straight line basis over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis as follows:

Gains or losses arising from the de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

The cost of intangible assets at April 01, 2016, the Company''s date of transition to Ind AS, was determined with reference to its carrying value recognised as per the previous GAAP (deemed cost), as at the date of transition to Ind AS.

h. Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Right-of use assets

The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, deferred lease components of security deposits and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

Right-of-Use Leasehold Restaurants and Restaurant Equipments are amortised over a period of lease term.

Lease Liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any

lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contains lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of restaurant and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment''s that are of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense in statement of profit and loss.

i. Inventories

Inventories (comprising of food, beverages, condiments, paper & packing materials) are valued at lower of cost (determined on first in first out basis) and net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

j. Impairment of non- financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash - generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators. The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company''s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated.

For assets, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, management estimates the asset''s or CGU''s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset''s recoverable amount since the last impairment

Loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.

The registered office of the Company is located at office no. 1003 to 1007, B wing, 10th floor, Mittal Commercia, Asan Pada Road, Chimatpada, Marol, Andheri (East), Mumbai - 400059. As on March 31, 2023, the Company has 384 Company-operated restaurants and 7 sub-franchise restaurants located across different cities of India.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of directors on May 17, 2023.

NOTE 2SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, (Ind AS compliant Schedule III), as applicable.

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following assets and liabilities, which have been measured at fair value:

• Certain financial assets measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments)

• Share based payments

The financial statements are presented in "''" and all values are stated as '' million, except when otherwise indicated.

2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies

a. Current and non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current and non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

T eferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities respectively.

T he operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

b. Foreign currencies

Functional and presentation currency

T he Company''s financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees ("''"), which is also the Company''s functional currency.

Transactions and balances

T ransactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at its functional currency using spot rates at the date; the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange

rates at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in statement of profit or loss as expense or income in the year in which they occur or arise.

N on-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

c. Fair value measurement

Nhe Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.

N air value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability or,

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

Nhe principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

N he fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

N he Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs:

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

Nor assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

N anagement determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as derivative instruments and investment in mutual fund measured at fair value, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for distribution in discontinued operations.

Nor the purpose of fair value disclosures, management has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.

Nt each reporting date, management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities, which are required to be re-measured or reassessed as per the Company''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

d. Revenue recognition

Revenue from contract with customer

R evenues from contracts with customers are recognised when control has been transferred at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company acts as the principal in all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in all the revenue arrangements as it has pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.

R n entity collects Goods and Services Tax ("GST") on behalf of the government and not on its own account. Hence, it is excluded from revenue i.e. revenue is net of GST.

Sale of goods

Rhe Company recognises revenue from sale of food through Company''s owned stores and owned and third party online platforms, and are recognised when the items are delivered to or carried out by customers.

Sale of products- customer loyalty programme (deferred revenue)

Rhe Company has a loyalty points programme, which allows customers to accumulate points that can be redeemed for free/discounted products. The loyalty points give rise to a separate performance obligation as they provide a material right to the customer.

Ror customer loyalty programmes, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between the award credits and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to award credits is deferred and is recognised as revenue when the award credits are redeemed and the Company has fulfilled its obligations to supply the discounted products under the terms of the programme or when it is no longer probable that the award credits will be redeemed. The deferred income related to loyalty credits granted has been estimated with reference to the fair value of products for which they could be redeemed. This is because the fair value of loyalty credits is not directly observable. The fair value of the customers''

right to buy products at a discount for which the loyalty credits can be redeemed takes into account the amount of discount available to customers who have earned the loyalty credits remaining unutilised and the expected forfeiture rate.

Dividend income

R ividend income is recognised when Company''s right to receive dividend is established by the reporting date.

Income from sub-franchisee operations

R ub-Franchisee income includes onetime initial fees and royalty income on sales. One time initial fees are non-refundable and are recognised over the term of contract. Royalty income is recognised on accrual basis based on the terms of the agreement over a period of time.

Interest income

For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate ("EIR"), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Contract balances Contract assets

R contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional.

Trade receivables

R receivable represents the Company''s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section (n) Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

e. Taxes

Aax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax.

Current income tax

A urrent income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961. The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period''s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period in India where the Company operates and generates taxable income.

A urrent income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The group shall reflect the effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment by using either most likely method or expected value method, depending on which method predicts better resolution of the treatment.

Deferred tax

A eferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except :

• When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses.

• Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

• When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

Ahe carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

A eferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

D eferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity.

D eferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

f. Property, plant and equipment

D roperty, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at the cost of acquisition including incidental costs related to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of restoration liabilities. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. The present value of the expected cost for the restoration of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

W hen significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in regular intervals, the Company recognises such parts as separate component of assets. When an item of PPE is replaced, then its carrying amount is derecognised from the balance sheet and cost of the new item of PPE is recognised. Further, in case the replaced part was not being depreciated separately, the cost of the replacement is used as an indication to determine the cost of the replaced part at the time it was acquired.

D apital work in progress comprises cost of property, plant and equipment (including related expenses) that are not yet ready for their intended use at the reporting date and it is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

D ains or losses arising from derecognition of property, plant and equipment are measured as the

difference between the net disposal proceeds and carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment

D epreciation is provided on straight line method on a pro-rata basis from the date of use. The rates of depreciation are based on technical evaluation of the economic life of assets by the management, which are given below and are equal to or greater than the corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013:

Property, plant and equipment:

Economic life (Years):

Leasehold improvement

Lower of 15 years

or lease period

Furniture and Fixtures

- Restaurants

8 years

- Office

10 years

Restaurant equipments

- Kitchen equipments

10 years

- Other equipments

5 years

Office equipments

5 years

Computers

3 years

Servers and networks

6 years

(Included in Computers in Note 3)

Vehicles

8 years

D he useful lives, residual values and depreciation method of PPE are reviewed, and adjusted appropriately, at-least as at each reporting date to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets. The effect of any change in the estimated useful lives, residual values and / or depreciation method are accounted prospectively, and accordingly the depreciation is calculated over the PPE''s remaining revised useful life.

Site restoration liability

D he Company records a provision for site restoration costs associated with the stores opened. Site restoration costs are provided at the present value of expected costs to settle the obligation using estimated cash flows and are recognised as part of the cost of the particular asset. The cash flows are discounted at a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the site restoration provision. The unwinding of the discount is expensed as incurred and recognised in the statement of profit and loss as a finance cost. The estimated future costs of site restoration are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate. Changes in the estimated future costs or in the discount rate applied are added to or deducted from the cost of the asset.

g. Intangible assets

I ntangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. An intangible asset is recognized, where it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. The Company capitalises software costs where it is reasonably estimated that the software has an enduring useful life. The Company capitalises one-time initial franchisee fees paid for opening of each store.

T he useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. There are no intangible assets assessed with indefinite useful life.

I ntangible assets with finite lives are amortised on a straight line basis over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

I ntangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis as follows:

Intangible assets: Economic life

(Years)

Software 5 years

Franchisee fees 20 years

T ains or losses arising from the de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

h. Leases

T he Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Right-of use assets

T he Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, deferred lease components of security deposits and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straightline basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

R ight-of-Use Leasehold Restaurants and Restaurant Equipments are amortised over a period of lease term.

Lease Liabilities

Rt the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

I n calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

Rhe determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

Ror arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contains lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

R he Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of restaurant and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment''s that are of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense in statement of profit and loss.

i. Inventories

I nventories (comprising of food, beverages, condiments, paper & packing materials) are valued at lower of cost (determined on first in first out basis) and net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

j. Impairment of financial and non-financial assets

Rhe Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash - generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from

other assets or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

I n assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators. The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company''s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated.

For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, management estimates the asset''s or CGU''s recoverable amount. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset''s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.

k. Provisions

F rovisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.

I f the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pretax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

Fhese estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

Contingent Liability

F ontingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

l. Retirement and other employee benefits Defined Contribution plan

F tate governed Provident Fund and Employees State Insurance Corporation are considered as defined contribution plan and contributions thereto are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the year when an employee renders the related service. There are no other obligations, other than contribution payable to the respective funds.

The Company recognizes contribution payable to the provident fund scheme as an expense, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to.

Defined Benefit plan Gratuity

G ratuity liability is a defined benefit scheme. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period. The defined benefit obligation is calculated by actuary using the projected unit credit method.

Ghe present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in '' is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.

Ghe net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

G emeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet. Remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.

G hanges in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit or Loss as past service cost.

Leave Encashment

Accumulated leaves, which are expected to be utilised within the next 12 months, are treated as current employee benefit. The Company treats the entire leave as current liability in the balance sheet, since it does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date. It is measured based on an actuarial valuation done by an independent actuary on the projected unit credit method at the end of each financial year.

m. Share - based payments

G mployees (including senior executives) of the Company receive remuneration in the form of share-based payment, whereby employees render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).

Equity-settled transactions

Ghe cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model. Further details are given in Note 35.

G hat cost is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in share-based payment (SBP) reserves in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled in employee benefits expense.

Ghe cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the company''s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The statement of profit and loss expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised

as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised in employee benefits expense.

S ervice and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Company''s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

W hen the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognised is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee.

W here an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through profit or loss.

Sxpense relating to equity-settled options granted to employees of the subsidiary companies are recognised as receivable from the subsidiary companies with a corresponding credit to employee stock option reserve.

S he dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

n. Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

A inancial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

She classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset''s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company''s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115. Refer to the accounting policies in section (d) Revenue from contracts with customers.

I n order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ''solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)'' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

She Company''s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result

from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.

Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

• Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)

• Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments) Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

• Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments)

• Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Debt instruments at amortised cost

F ''debt instrument'' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:

a) Fhe asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and

b) F ontractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

Fhis category is the most relevant to the Company. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective 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 is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in

the profit or loss. This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

Debt instrument at FVTOCI

F ''debt instrument'' is classified as at the FVTOCI if both of the following criteria are met:

a) Fhe objective of the business model is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling the financial assets, and

b) Fhe asset''s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

F ebt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date 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 exchange gain or loss in the P&L. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to P&L. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.

Debt instrument at FVTPL

FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.

I n addition, the Company may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ''accounting mismatch'').

F ebt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the P&L.

Investment in Subsidiary

I nvestment in Subsidiary entities is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiary entity the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Refer Significant accounting judgements estimates and assumptions.

Equity investments

All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.

I f the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.

A quity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

De-recognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company''s statement of financial position) when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or

• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay 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.

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, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the 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 and obligations that the Company has retained. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

A he Company assesses impairment based on expected credit losses (ECL) model to the following:

• Financial assets measured at amortised cost; and

• Financial assets measured at Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Aor trade receivables, other receivables and other financial assets, the Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance.

U nder the simplified approach, the Company does not track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition. For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Company combines financial instruments on the basis of shared credit risk characteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designed to enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timely basis.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

U inancial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value.

Uhe Company''s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and borrowings.

Subsequent measurement

Uhe Company measures all financial liabilities at amortised cost using the Effective Interest Rate (''EIR'') method except for financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.

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. 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.

Uinancial liabilities held for trading are measured at fair value through profit and loss.

A inancial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied.

For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/loss are not subsequently transferred to P&L. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

De-recognition

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Offsetting of financial instruments

A inancial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

o. Cash and cash equivalents

A ash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Uor the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, as they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.

p. Exceptional Items

Uxceptional items are transactions, by virtue of their size or incidence (including but not limited to impairment charges and acquisition and restructuring related costs), are separately disclosed to ensure that the financial information allows an understanding of the underlying performance of the business in the year, so as to facilitate comparison with prior periods. Such items

are material by nature or amount to the year''s result and require separate disclosure in accordance with Ind AS.

q. Earnings per share

B asic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they are entitled to participate in dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue, share split, and reverse share split (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

r. Cash flow statement

B ash flows are reported using indirect method, whereby profit/ loss before tax is adjusted for the effects transactions of a non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating, financing and investing activities of the Company are segregated. Cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow comprise cash at bank, cash/ cheques in hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

s. Segment reporting

B perating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker being Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company.

2.3 Significant accounting judgements estimates and assumptions

B he preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future period, if the revision affects current and future period.

I nformation about critical judgments in applying accounting policies, as well as estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, are mentioned below:

a) Useful lives of Property, Plant and equipment:

B seful life and residual value are determined by the management based on a technical evaluation considering nature of asset, past experience, estimated usage of the asset, vendor''s advice, period of underlying lease term etc and same is reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. Management reviews the useful economic lives atleast once a year and any changes could affect the depreciation rates prospectively and hence the asset carrying values. The Company also reviews its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, for possible impairment if there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. In assessing the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for impairment, factors leading to significant reduction in profits, the Company''s business plans and changes in regulatory/ economic environment are taken into consideration.

b) Provision for site restoration

The Company has recognised a provision for site restoration obligation associated with the stores opened. In determining the fair value of the provision, assumptions and estimates are made in relation to discount rates, the expected cost to dismantle and remove the furniture/fixtures from the stores and the expected timing of those costs. The Company estimates that the costs would be incurred upon the expiration of the lease and calculates the provision on discounted basis using the current pre-tax rate that reflects the risk specific to the site restoration provision.

c) Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases attrition rates and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 33.

d) Impairment of investment in subsidiaries

T etermining whether investments in subsidiaries are impaired requires an estimate in the value in use. In considering the value in use, the management have anticipated the future cash flows, discount rates and other factors of the underlying businesses/ companies. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company us

The registered office of the Company is located at office no. 1003 to 1007, B wing, 10th floor, Mittal Commercia, Asan Pada Road, Chimatpada, Marol, Andheri (East), Mumbai - 400059. As on March 31,2022, the Company had 306 Company-operated restaurants and 9 sub-franchise restaurants located across different cities of India.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of directors on May 30, 2022.

NOTE 2SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES2.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, (Ind AS compliant Schedule III), as applicable.

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the following assets and liabilities, which have been measured at fair value:

• Certain financial assets measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments)

• Share based payments

The financial statements are presented in "INR" and all values are stated as INR million, except when otherwise indicated.

2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies

a. Current and non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current and non-current

classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle

• Held primarily for the purpose of trading

• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

• It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle

• It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities respectively.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

b. Foreign currencies

Functional and presentation currency

The Company’s financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees ("INR"), which is also the Company’s functional currency.

Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company’s functional currency using spot rates at the date; the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and

liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in statement of profit or loss as expense or income in the year in which they occur or arise.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.

c. Fair value measurement

The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

• In the principal market for the asset or liability or,

• In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

• Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

• Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

• Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

Management determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as derivative instruments and investment in mutual fund measured at fair value, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for distribution in discontinued operations.

At each reporting date, management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities, which are required to be re-measured or reassessed as per the Company’s accounting policies. For this analysis, the management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents.

d. Revenue recognition

Revenue from contract with customer

Revenues from contracts with customers are recognised when the performance obligations towards customer when control has been transferred at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The Company acts as the principal in

all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in all the revenue arrangements as it has pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.

An entity collects Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) on behalf of the government and not on its own account. Hence, it is excluded from revenue i.e. revenue is net of GST.

Sale of goods

The Company recognises revenue from sale of food through Company’s owned stores and are recognised when the items are delivered to or carried out by customers.

Sale of products- customer loyalty programme (deferred revenue)

For customer loyalty programmes, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the initial sale is allocated between the award credits and the other components of the sale. The amount allocated to award credits is deferred and is recognised as revenue when the award credits are redeemed and the Company has fulfilled its obligations to supply the discounted products under the terms of the programme or when it is no longer probable that the award credits will be redeemed. The deferred income related to loyalty credits granted has been estimated with reference to the fair value of products for which they could be redeemed. This is because the fair value of loyalty credits is not directly observable. The fair value of the customers’ right to buy products at a discount for which the loyalty credits can be redeemed takes into account the amount of discount available to customers who have earned the loyalty credits remaining unutilised and the expected forfeiture rate.

Dividend income

Dividend income is recognised when Company’s right to receive dividend is established by the reporting date.

Income from sub-franchisee operations

Sub-Franchisee income includes onetime initial fees and royalty income on sales. One time initial fees are non-refundable and are recognised over the

term of contract. Royalty income is recognised on accrual basis based on the terms of the agreement over a period of time.

Interest income

For all financial instruments measured at amortised cost, interest income is recorded using the effective interest rate ("EIR"), which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Company estimates the expected cash flows by considering all the contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider the expected credit losses.

Contract balances Trade receivables

A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due). Refer to accounting policies of financial assets in section (n) Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

e. Taxes

Tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax.

Current income tax

Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income-tax Act, 1961.

The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses. The current income tax charge is calculated based on the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of reporting period in India where the Company operates and generates taxable income.

Current income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except when the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses.

Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in other comprehensive income (OCI) or in equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

f. Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (PPE) are stated at the cost of acquisition including incidental costs related to acquisition and installation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use and initial estimate of restoration liabilities. Any trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the purchase price. The present value of the expected cost for the restoration of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.

When significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced in regular intervals, the Company recognises such parts as separate component of assets. When an item of PPE is replaced, then its carrying amount is derecognised from the balance sheet and cost of the new item of PPE is recognised. Further, in case the replaced part was not being depreciated separately, the cost of the replacement is used as an indication to determine the cost of the replaced part at the time it was acquired.

Depreciation on Property, Plant and Equipment

Depreciation is provided on straight line method on a pro-rata basis from the date of use. The rates of depreciation are based on technical evaluation of the economic life of assets by the management, which are given below and are equal to or greater than the corresponding rates prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013:

The useful lives, residual values and depreciation method of PPE are reviewed, and adjusted appropriately, at-least as at each reporting date to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets. The effect of any change in the estimated useful lives, residual values and / or depreciation method are accounted prospectively, and accordingly the depreciation is calculated over the PPE’s remaining revised useful life.

Gains or losses arising from disposal of property, plant and equipment are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised

in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is disposed.

g. Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. An intangible asset is recognized, where it is probable that the future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and where its cost can be reliably measured. The Company capitalises software costs where it is reasonably estimated that the software has an enduring useful life. The Company capitalises one-time initial franchisee fees paid for opening of each store.

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. There are no intangible assets assessed with indefinite useful life.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised on a straight line basis over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset.

I ntangible assets are amortised on a straight line basis as follows:

Intangible assets:

Economic life (Years)

Software

5 years

Franchisee fees

20 years

Gains or losses arising from the de-recognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.

h. Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

Right-of use assets

The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, deferred lease components of security deposits and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straightline basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

Right-of-Use Leasehold Restaurants and Restaurant Equipments are amortised over a period of lease term.

Lease Liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made

over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.

For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contains lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of restaurant and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the

commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment’s that are of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense in statement of profit and loss.

i. Inventories

Inventories (comprising of food, beverages, condiments, paper & packing materials) are valued at lower of cost (determined on first in first out basis) or net realisable value. However, materials and other items held for use the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

j. Impairment of financial and non-financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash - generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators. The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated.

k. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pretax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

Contingent Liability

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

l. Retirement and other employee benefits Defined Contribution plan

State governed Provident Fund and Employees State Insurance Corporation are considered as

defined contribution plan and contributions thereto are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the year when an employee renders the related service. There are no other obligations, other than contribution payable to the respective funds.

Defined Benefit plan Gratuity

Gratuity liability is a defined benefit scheme. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period. The defined benefit obligation is calculated by actuary using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the defined benefit obligation denominated in INR is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.

The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet. Remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.

Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit or Loss as past service cost.

Leave Encashment

Accumulated leaves, which are expected to be utilised within the next 12 months, are treated as current employee benefit. The Company treats the entire leave as current liability in the balance sheet,

since it does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date. It is measured based on an actuarial valuation done by an independent actuary on the projected unit credit method at the end of each financial year.

m. Share - based payments

Senior executives of the company receive remuneration in the form of share-based payment, whereby employees render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).

Equity-settled transactions

The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model.

That cost is recognised, together with a corresponding increase in share-based payment (SBP) reserves in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled in employee benefits expense.

The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The statement of profit and loss expense or credit for a period represents the movement in cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised in employee benefits expense.

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognised is the expense had the terms had not been modified, if the original terms of the award are met. An additional expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

Where an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through profit or loss.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

n. Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Financial assetsInitial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115. Refer to the accounting policies in section (d) Revenue from contracts with customers.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level.

The Company’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both.

Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

• Debt instruments at amortised cost

• Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

• Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

• Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Debt instruments at amortised cost

A ‘debt instrument’ 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 cash flows, and

b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.

This category is the most relevant to the Company. After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective 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 is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss. This category generally applies to trade and other receivables.

Debt instrument at FVTOCI

A ‘debt instrument’ is classified as at the FVTOCI 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 the financial assets, and

b) The asset’s contractual cash flows represent SPPI.

Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date 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 exchange gain or loss in the P&L. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to P&L. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.

Debt instrument at FVTPL

FVTPL is a residual category for debt instruments. Any debt instrument, which does not meet the criteria for categorization as at amortized cost or as FVTOCI, is classified as at FVTPL.

In addition, the Company may elect to designate a debt instrument, which otherwise meets amortized cost or FVTOCI criteria, as at FVTPL. However, such election is allowed only if doing so reduces or eliminates a measurement or recognition inconsistency (referred to as ‘accounting mismatch’).

Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the P&L.

Investment in Subsidiary

The Company has accounted for its investments in Subsidiary at cost less impairment loss (if any).

Equity investments

All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.

I f the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.

Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

De-recognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s statement of financial position) when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or

• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay 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.

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, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the 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 and obligations that the Company has retained. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying

amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Company could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses impairment based on expected credit losses (ECL) model to the following:

• Financial assets measured at amortised cost; and

• Financial assets measured at Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

For trade receivables, other receivables and other financial assets, the Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance.

Under the simplified approach, the Company does not track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition. For assessing increase in credit risk and impairment loss, the Company combines financial instruments on the basis of shared credit risk characteristics with the objective of facilitating an analysis that is designed to enable significant increases in credit risk to be identified on a timely basis.

Financial liabilitiesInitial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value.

The Company’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and borrowings.

Subsequent measurement

The Company measures all financial liabilities at amortised cost using the Effective Interest Rate (''EIR'') method except for financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.

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. 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.

Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at fair value through profit and loss.

Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss are designated as such at the initial date of recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/loss are not subsequently transferred to P&L. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

De-recognition

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

o. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. For the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, as they are considered an integral part of the Company’s cash management.

p. Exceptional Items

Exceptional items are transactions which due to their size or incidence are separately disclosed

to enable full understanding of the Company’s financial performance.

q. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Partly paid equity shares are treated as a fraction of an equity share to the extent that they are entitled to participate in dividends relative to a fully paid equity share during the reporting period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events such as bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue, share split, and reverse share split (consolidation of shares) that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

r. Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using indirect method, whereby profit/ loss before tax is adjusted for the effects transactions of a non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating, financing and investing activities of the Company are segregated. Cash and cash equivalents in the cash flow comprise cash at bank, cash/ cheques in hand and short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

s. Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

2.3 Significant accounting judgements estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and

the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future period, if the revision affects current and future period.

Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies, as well as estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, are mentioned below:

a) Useful lives of Property, Plant and equipment:

Useful life and residual value are determined by the management based on a technical evaluation considering nature of asset, past experience, estimated usage of the asset, vendor’s advice, period of underlying lease term etc and same is reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. Management reviews the useful economic lives atleast once a year and any changes could affect the depreciation rates prospectively and hence the asset carrying values. The Company also reviews its property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, for possible impairment if there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. In assessing the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for impairment, factors leading to significant reduction in profits, the Company’s business plans and changes in regulatory/ economic environment are taken into consideration.

b) Provision for decommissioning

The Company has recognised a provision for site restoration obligation associated with the stores opened. In determining the fair value of the provision, assumptions and estimates are made in relation to discount rates, the expected cost to dismantle and remove the furniture/fixtures from the stores and the expected timing of those costs. The Company estimates that the costs would be realised upon the expiration of the lease and calculates the provision using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method.

c) Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases attrition rates and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 33.

d) Impairment of non-financial assets

I mpairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm’s length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a DCF model. The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Company is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset’s performance of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.

e) Taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together

with future tax planning strategies. Further details about Deferred tax assets are given in Note 31.

f) Lease Term

The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

The Company included the renewal period as part of the lease term for leases of restaurant and equipment due to the significance of these assets to its operations and also investments made in leasehold improvements.

g) Fair Value Measurement

For estimates relating to fair value of financial instruments, refer Note 39 of financial statements.

h) Estimation of uncertainties relating to the global health pandemic from COVID-19

Refer Note 46 to the financial statements.
