Provisions are recognized only when there is a present
obligation, as a result of past events, and when a reliable
estimate of the amount of obligation can be made at the
reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each
reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimates. Provisions are discounted to their present
values, where the time value of money is material.
⢠Possible obligations which will be confirmed only
by future events not wholly within the control of
the Company; or
⢠Present obligations arising from past events where
it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate
of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed.
However, when realization of income is virtually certain,
related asset is recognized.
Tax expense recognized in standalone statement of profit
and loss consists of current and deferred tax except to the
extent that it relates to items recognised in OCI or directly
in equity, in which case it is recognised in OCI or directly in
equity respectively.
Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax
laws that have been enacted for the reporting period and
any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the
Company has a legally enforceable right to offset and
intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the
asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
in the standalone financial statements and the
corresponding tax bases used in the computation
of taxable profit. Deferred tax is measured at the tax
rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary
differences when they reverse, based on the laws that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liability are
generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all
deductible temporary differences to the extent that is
probable that taxable profits will be available against which
those deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a
legally enforceable right to set off corresponding current
tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred
tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income
taxes levied by the same tax authority on the Company.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date
and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable
that the related tax benefit will be realised. Withholding tax
arising out of payment of dividends to shareholders
under the Indian Income tax regulations is not considered
as tax expense for the Company and all such taxes are
recognised in the statement of changes in equity as part
of the associated dividend payment.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the
net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is
determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to
equity shareholders and the weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the year for the effects
of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent
with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating
decision maker.
Goods and Service tax input credit is accounted for in the
books in the year in which the underlying service received
is accounted and when there is no uncertainty in availing /
utilising the credits.
Based on the normal time between acquisition of assets
and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents, the
Company has determined its operating cycle as 12
months. The above basis is used for classifying the
assets and liabilities into current and non-current as
the case may be.
The Company has a single class of equity shares. Accordingly, all equity shares rank equally with regard to dividends and share in the
Company''s residual assets. The equity shares are entitled to receive dividend as declared from time to time. The voting rights of an equity
shareholder on a poll (not on show of hands) are in proportion to its share of the paid-up equity capital of the Company. Voting rights
cannot be exercised in respect of shares on which any call or other sums presently payable have not been paid. Failure to pay any amount
called up on shares may lead to forfeiture of the shares. On winding up of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled
to receive the residual assets of the Company, remaining after distribution of all preferential amounts in proportion to the number of
equity shares held.

Risk management framework:
The Company''s principal financial liabilities, comprise borrowings, lease liabilities, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these
financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include trade and other receivables,
cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances that derive directly from its operations. The Company also holds FVTOCI investments
and investment in its subsidiary.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s Board of Directors oversees the management of
these risks. The Company''s Board of Directors is supported by the senior management that advises on financial risks and the appropriate
financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior management provides assurance to the Company''s Board of Directors
that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified,
measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives.
There have been no transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 or vice-versa in FY 2024-25 and no transfers in either direction in FY 2023-24.
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include
borrowings, lease liabilities, deposits, trade receivables and other financial instruments.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024. The analyses exclude
the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of gratuity and other post retirement obligations; provisions; and
non-financial assets and liabilities.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Company has loan facilities on floating interest rate, which exposes the Company to risk of changes in interest
rates. The management monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk based on its policies, which include
entering into interest rate swaps as considered necessary. The Company''s investment in deposits with banks are for short durations
and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rate risk.
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined for borrowings assuming the amount of borrowings outstanding at the end of the
reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 10 basis points increase or decrease in case of foreign currency borrowings
and 50 basis points increase or decrease in case of rupee borrowings is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key
management personnel and represents management''s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rate.
If interest rate had been 10 basis points higher/lower in case of foreign currency borrowings and 50 basis points higher/ lower in
case of rupee borrowings and all other variables were held constant, the Company''s profit for the year ended 31 March 2025 would
decrease/increase by '' 5.82 (31 March 2024: '' 33.85).â
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure shall fluctuate because of change in foreign
exchange rates. The Company''s foreign exchange risk arises from its foreign operations, foreign currency revenues and expenses,
(primarily in US Dollars and Euros) and foreign currency borrowings (primarily in US Dollars). As a result, if the value of the Indian
rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Company''s revenues and expenses measured in Indian rupees may
decrease or increase and vice-versa. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed
substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the Company uses both
derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts, currency swap contracts and foreign
currency financial liabilities, to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in respect of its highly probable
forecasted transactions and recognised assets and liabilities.
The Company designates its derivative contracts that hedge foreign exchange risk associated with its highly probable forecasted
transactions as cash flow hedges and measures them at fair value. The effective portion of such cash flow hedges is recorded as in
other comprehensive income, and re-classified in the income statement as revenue in the period corresponding to the occurrence of the
forecasted transactions. The ineffective portion of such cash flow hedges is immediately recorded in the statement of profit and loss.
Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not meet its obligation under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to
financial loss. The credit risk arises principally from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities,
including deposits with banks and other financial instruments.
The Company has established a credit mechanism under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before
the Company''s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company''s review includes external ratings, where
available, and other publicly available financial information. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
The maximum exposure to credit risk as at reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to '' 3528.78 (31 March 2024:
'' 2,587.94). (refer note 14)
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through an
adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the nature of the business, the Company maintains
flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed facilities.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company''s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected
cash flows. The Company takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates. In addition, the Company''s liquidity
management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these,
monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.
The Company''s principal sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from operations. Further the Company also has long term
borrowings and working capital facilities which the management believes are sufficient for its current requirements. Accordingly, no liquidity
risk is perceived.
The Company''s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide
returns for shareholders and benefits for stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. Hence, the
Company may adjust any dividend payments, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Total capital
is the equity as shown in the statement of financial position. Currently, the Company primarily monitors its capital structure on the basis
of the following gearing ratio. Management is continuously reviewing its strategies to optimize the returns and reduce the risks. It includes
plans to optimize the financial leverage of the Company.
