Impairment assessment

The references below show where the Company's impairment assessment and measurement approach is set out in these notes.

Definition of default

The Company considers a financial instrument as defaulted and considers it as Stage 3 (credit-impaired) for expected credit loss (ECL) calculations, when the assets become more than 90 days past due on its contractual payments and these assets continue to be classified as Stage 3 till the entire overdues are received, in accordance with the RBI guidelines and the ECL Policy.

Exposure at default

The exposure at default (EAD) represents the gross carrying amount of the financial instruments subject to the impairment calculation, addressing both the client's ability to increase its exposure while approaching default and potential early repayments too.

To calculate the EAD for a Stage 1 loan, the Company assesses the possible default events within 12 months for the calculation of the 12 months ECL. For Stage 2 financial assets, the exposure at default is considered for events over the lifetime of the instruments.

Probability of default

Probability of default (PD) represents the likelihood of default over a defined time horizon.

Loss given default

Loss given default (LGD) has been calculated by taking into account the recovery experience across the Company's loan accounts post default. The recoveries netted off by expenses incurred for recovery, are tracked and discounted to the date of default using the interest rate.

Significant increase in credit risk

The Company continuously monitors all assets subject to ECL. In order to determine whether an instrument or a portfolio of instruments is subject to 12 months ECL or Lifetime ECL, the Company assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. The Company considers an exposure to have significantly increased in credit risk when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due and/ or when the accounts have been restructured under the RBI 'Resolution Framework - 2.0: Resolution of COVID-19 related stress of Individuals and Small Businesses' Guidelines.

When estimating ECLs on a collective basis for a group of similar assets, the Company applies the same principles for assessing whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.

Grouping financial assets measured on a collective basis

As explained above, the Company calculates ECL on a collective basis on the following broad asset classes:

- Home loans

- Loan against property

- Commercial loan

- Construction finance Risk assessment model

The Company has designed and operates its risk assessment model that factors in both quantitative as well as qualitative information on the loans and the borrowers. The model uses historical empirical data to arrive at factors that are indicative of future credit risk and segments the portfolio on the basis of combinations of these parameters into smaller homogenous portfolios from the perspective of credit behaviour.

The Company considers qualitative factors and creates additional provisions in relation to specific borrowers

over and above the ECL model based on the evaluation of the expected cash flows.

Collateral

The Company holds collateral to mitigate credit risk associated with financial assets that are measured at amortised cost. The main types of collateral include residential and commercial properties.

Assets possessed under Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002

Loan Portfolio includes gross loans amounting to ' 261.33 million (31 March 2023: ' 169.18 million), out of which ' 21.00 million (31 March 2023: ' 27.57 million) pertains to retained portion of loans from the assigned portfolio, against which the Company has taken possession of the properties under Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 and held such properties for disposal. The value of assets possessed against these loans is ' 411.38 million (31 March 2023: ' 312.56 million). Value of repossessed assets for loans written off is ' 52.16 million (31 March 2023: ' 35.12 million).

31 Capital management

The Company's capital management strategy is to effectively determine, raise and deploy capital to cover risk inherent in business and meeting the capital adequacy requirements of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The same is done through a combination of equity and/ or short term/ long term debt as may be appropriate. The Company determines the amount of capital required on the basis of operations and capital expenditure. The adequacy of the Company's capital is

monitored using, among other measures, the regulations issued by the RBI.

The capital structure is monitored on the basis of net debt to equity and maturity profile of overall debt portfolio. The Company's policy is in line with Master Direction - Non-Banking Financial Company - Housing Finance Company (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2021 which currently permits HFCs to borrow up to 12 times of their net owned funds ("NOF"). Refer note 48 for Capital to risk-weighted assets ratio (CRAR).

Loan covenants

In order to achieve the overall objective, the Company's capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets the financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that

define capital structure requirements. Breach in meeting these financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any borrowing in the reporting year.

32.2 Fair value hierarchy

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount 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.

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the Indian Accounting standard.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments, units of mutual funds (open ended) and traded bonds that have quoted price. Open-ended mutual funds are valued at Net Asset Value (NAV) declared by respective fund house and are classified under Level 1.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2, this level of hierarchy includes financial assets, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3: This level of hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

There have been no transfers amongst the levels of hierarchy during the year ended 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2023.

32.4 Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost at each reporting date

The carrying value of loans given, excess interest strip receivable, bank deposits and borrowings represents its fair value. Further, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, investments in government securities, other financial assets, trade payables and other financial liabilities are considered to be approximately equal to the fair value due to their short term maturities.

The above mentioned financial assets and liabilities are classified under level 1 of the fair valuation hierarchy, refer note 32.1.

32.5 Valuation techniques

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

Loans - The fair value of floating rate loans are deemed to be equivalent to the carrying value.

Borrowings (including debt securities) - The fair value of fixed rate borrowings is determined by discounting expected future contractual cash flows using current market interest rates charged for similar new loans and the carrying value approximates the fair value. The fair value of floating rate borrowings are deemed to be equivalent to the carrying value.

33 Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to certain financial risks namely credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk i.e.

interest risk, foreign currency risk and price risk. The Company's primary focus is to achieve better predictability of financial markets and minimise potential adverse effects on its financial performance by effectively managing the risks on its financial assets and liabilities.

The principal objective in Company's risk management processes is to measure and monitor the various risks associated with the Company and to follow policies and procedures to address such risks. The Company's risk management framework is driven by its Board and its subcommittees including the Audit Committee, the Asset Liability Management Committee and the Risk Management Committee. The Company gives due importance to prudent lending practices and have implemented suitable measures for risk mitigation, which include verification of credit history from credit information bureaus, personal verification of a customer's business and residence, valuation of collateral, technical and legal verifications, conservative loan to value, and required term cover for insurance.

A Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at a reasonable price. For the Company, liquidity risk arises from obligations on account of financial liabilities - borrowing, trade payables and other financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

Notes:

(I) Debt securities and borrowings (other than debt securities) carry adjustment of unamortised processing fee (EIR).

(ii) Other financial liabilities exclude liability pertaining to lease liabilities covered under Indian accounting standard 116 (31 March 2024: ' 169.00 million; 31 March 2023: ' 147.73 million).

B Market risk ( i ) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily towards principal and interest payments at a future date on the foreign currency borrowings taken from banks and certain vendors in trade payables.

In order to minimise any adverse impact on the financial performance of the Company, the Company enters in to forward contracts to hedge the foreign currency risk in such a manner that it results in fixed determinate outflows in the functional currency and as such there would be no significant impact of movement in foreign currency rates on the Company's profit before tax. .....

(ii) Interest rate risk

The Company is subject to interest rate risk, since the rates of loans and borrowings might fluctuate over the tenure of instrument. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond control, including the monetary policies of the Reserve Bank of India, deregulation of the financial sector in India, domestic and international economic and political conditions,

inflation and other factors. In order to manage interest rate risk, the Company seeks to optimise borrowing profile between short-term and long-term loans. The liabilities are categorised into various time buckets based on their maturities and Asset Liability Management Committee supervise an interest rate sensitivity report periodically for assessment of interest rate risks.

34 Credit risk management Credit quality of assets

Credit risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss because the counterparty might fail to discharge their contractual obligations. The Company has a comprehensive framework for monitoring credit quality of its retail and other loans primarily based on number of days past due.

The Company managers credit risks by using a set of credit procedures and guidelines, laid down in the credit risk policy, to ensure effective credit risk management and health of the portfolio. The adherence to the policy and various processes is monitored and appraised in the credit committee meetings on a quarterly basis. The policy is amended periodically to ensure compliance with the guidelines of the RBI as well as other regulatory bodies.

We have implemented a structured credit approval process, including multi-step customer verification and comprehensive credit risk assessment, which encompasses analysis of relevant quantitative and qualitative information to ascertain the credit worthiness of a potential customer. As part of our multi-step customer verification, we have established a process by which separate set of verifications are conducted by a customer relationship manager and customer service officer to ensure the quality of customers acquired as well as eliminate misuse of borrowing practices.

Portfolio quality, credit limits, collateral quality and credit exposure limits are regularly monitored at various levels.

The Company considers a financial instrument as defaulted and considers it as Stage 3 (credit-impaired) for expected credit loss (ECL) calculations, when the assets become more than 90 days past due on its contractual payments and these assets continue to be classifed as Stage 3 till the entire overdues are received, in accordance with the RBI guidelines and Board approved ECL Policy.

The following table sets out information about credit quality of loans measured at amortised cost based on days past due information. The amount represents gross carrying amount. (Refer note 4 - Loans for detailed disclosure on gross carrying value and ECL amount on loans).

35 Transfers of assets Assignment deal:

The Company has sold some loans measured at amortised cost as per assignment deals during the year. As per the terms of these deals, since substantial risk and rewards related to these assets were transferred to the buyer, the assets have been derecognised from the Company's balance sheet.

The management has evaluated the impact of assignment transactions done during the year for its business model. Based on the future business plan, the Company's business model remains to hold the assets for collecting contractual cash flows. The table below summarises the carrying amount of the derecognised financial assets measured at amortised cost and the gain on derecognition, per type of asset.

b. The Company has not acquired any loan not in default during the year ended 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2023.

c. The Company has not transferred or acquired any stressed loan during the year ended 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2023.

36 Employee benefits

(A) Defined benefit obligation

The Company has an unfunded defined benefit plan i.e.,

Gratuity, for its employees. Under the gratuity plan every employee who has completed at least five years of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days of salary for each year of service.

Contribution to gratuity fund (unfunded scheme)

In accordance with Indian Accounting Standard 19 'Employee benefits', actuarial valuation was done in respect of the aforesaid defined benefit plan of gratuity based on the following assumptions:

Interest rate risk: The risk of government security yields falling due to which the corresponding discount rate used for valuing liabilities falls. Such a fall in discount rate will result in a larger value placed on the future benefit cash flows whilst computing the liability and thereby requiring higher accounting provisioning.

Longevity risk: Longevity risks arises when the quantum of benefits payable under the plan is based on how long the employee lives post cessation of service with the company. The gratuity plan provides

the benefit in a lump sum form and since the benefit is not payable as an annuity for the rest of the lives of the employees, there is no longevity risk.

Salary risk: The gratuity benefits under the plan are related to the employee's last drawn salary. Consequently, any unusual rise in future salary of the employee raises the quantum of benefit payable by the company, which results in a higher liability for the company and is therefore a plan risk for the company.

Code on Social Security, 2020

The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the Company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity. The Ministry of Labour and Employment had released draft rules thereunder on 13 November 2020. The Company will assess the impact and its evaluation once the subject rules are notified. The Company will give appropriate impact in its financial statements in the period in which the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published.

**Total liabilities has been computed as sum of all liabilities (balance sheet figure) less equity share capital and other equity.

56.6 Institutional set-up for liquidity risk management

The Company's Board of Directors monitors all the risks, including liquidity risk. Governance structure, Policies and risks limits are prescribed by the Board.

Board Constituted Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) ensures effective asset-liability management, market risk management, liquidity and interest rate risk management and also adherence to risk tolerance/ limits set up by the Board. ALCO provides guidance and directions in terms of interest rate, liquidity, funding sources, and investment of surplus funds.

The Risk Management Committee constituted by the Board of Directors is primarily responsible for the effective supervision, evaluation, monitoring and review of various aspects and types of risks, including liquidity risk, faced by the Company.

Further, as per guidelines issued by the RBI, HFCs are required to maintain the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), to maintain liquidity buffers to withstand potential liquidity disruptions by ensuring that it has sufficient High Quality Liquid Assets (HQLA) to survive any acute liquidity stress scenario lasting for 30 days. As per the guidelines, the weighted values of the net cash flows are calculated after the application of respective haircuts for HQLA and considering stress factors on inflows at 75% and outflows at 115%.

For all non-deposit taking HFCs with an asset size

of ' 5,000 crore and above, but less than ' 10,000 crore, there is a phased transition towards meeting the minimum LCR, with the requirement as on 01 December 2021 being 30%. Thereafter, the requirement increases from 01 December 2022 onwards in a graded manner. The Company has put in place a liquidity risk management framework so as to adhere to the said LCR guidelines and applicable timelines.

57 Disclosure on Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) in accordance with RBI circular No. RBI/2020-21/73 DOR.FIN.HFC.CC.No.102/03.10.136/ 2020-21 dated 17 February 2021 and RBI circular No. RBI/DNBR/2016-17/45 Master Direction DNBR.PD.008/03.10.119/ 2016-17 dated 01 September 2016 The RBI vide Circular No. RBI/2020-21/73 DOR.FIN.HFC.CC.No.120/03.10.1 36/2020-21 dated 17 February 2021 issued guidelines on maintenance of Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) for HFCs.

The objective of the LCR is to promote resilience in the liquidity risk profile of HFCs.
