recognised for future operating losses.
Provisions are reviewed at each balance
sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current
best estimates.

B. Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities are disclosed in respect
of possible obligations that arise from past
events, whose existence would be confirmed
by the occurrence or non-occurrence of
one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the Company.
A contingent liability also arises, in rare
cases, where a liability cannot be recognised
because it cannot be measured reliably.

C. Contingent assets

Contingent asset is not recognised unless it
becomes virtually certain that an inflow of
economic benefits will arise. When an inflow
of economic benefits is probable, contingent
assets are disclosed in the financial
statements.

Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
are reviewed at each balance sheet date.

k) Employee share - based payment plans ('ESOP'):

The Company recognises compensation expense
relating to share based payments in accordance
with Ind AS 102-Share based Payment. For
share entitlement granted by the Company to its
employees, the estimated fair value as determined
on the date of grant, is charged to the Statement
of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the
vesting period and assessment of performance
conditions if any, with a corresponding increase
in equity. The increase in equity recognised in
connection with share-based payment transaction
is presented as a separate component in equity
under "Share based payment reserve". The
amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to
reflect the actual number of stock options that
vest. The cumulative accumulation in the Share
based payment reserve in respect of options
exercised are transferred to Securities Premium.

l) Fair value measurement:

The Company measures financial instruments
such as, derivatives 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 to 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
economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-fiinancial 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 - inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or
indirectly.

• Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable for the
asset or liability.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the
Financial Statements at fair value on a recurring
basis, the Company determines whether transfers

have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by
re-assessing categorisation at the end of each
reporting period and discloses the same.

For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the
Company 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.

m) Financial instruments

A. Financial assets:

i. Initial recognition and measurement

All financial assets are recognised initially at
fair value plus, in the case of financial assets
not recorded at fair value through profit or
loss, transaction costs that are attributable
to the acquisition of the financial asset.

Financial assets are classified, at initial
recognition, as financial assets measured at
fair value or as financial assets measured at
amortised cost. However, trade receivables
that do not contain a significant financing
component are measured at transaction
price.

ii. Subsequent measurement

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

• Financial assets at fair value

• Financial assets at amortised cost

Where assets are measured at fair value,
gains and losses are either recognised
entirely in the statement of profit and loss
(i.e. fair value through profit or loss), or
recognised in other comprehensive income
(i.e. fair value through other comprehensive
income).

A financial asset that meets the following
two conditions is measured at amortised
cost (net of any write down for impairment)
unless the asset is designated at fair value
through profit or loss under the fair value
option.

• Business model test: The objective
of the Company's business model is
to hold the financial asset to collect
the contractual cash flows (rather

than to sell the instrument prior to its
contractual maturity to realise its fair
value changes).

• Cash flow characteristics test: The
contractual terms of the financial
asset give rise on specified dates to
cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.

A financial asset that meets the
following two conditions is measured at
Fair Value through other comprehensive
income unless the asset is designated
at fair value through profit or loss under
the fair value option.

• Business model test: The financial
asset is held within a business model
whose objective is achieved by both
collecting contractual cash flows and
selling financial assets.

• Cash flow characteristics test: The
contractual terms of the financial
asset give rise on specified dates to
cash flows that are solely payments of
principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.

Even if an instrument meets the two
requirements to be measured at
amortised cost or fair value through other
comprehensive income, a financial asset is
measured at fair value through profit or loss
if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces
a measurement or recognition inconsistency
(sometimes referred to as an 'accounting
mismatch') that would otherwise arise from
measuring assets or liabilities or recognising
the gains and losses on them on different
bases.

All equity investments in scope of Ind AS
109 are measured at fair value. Equity
instruments, which are held for trading,
are classified as at fair value through profit
and loss ("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. If the Company
decides to classify an equity instrument as
at fair value through other comprehensive
income ("FVTOCI"), then all fair value changes
on the instrument, excluding dividends, are
recognised in the OCI. There is no recycling
of the amounts from OCI to statement of
profit and loss, 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 recognised in the statement of
profit and loss.

All other financial assets are measured at fair
value through profit or loss.

iii. Derecognition of financial instruments

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 balance
sheet) 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.

iv. Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses impairment based
on expected credit losses (ECL) model to the
financial assets measured at amortised cost.

Expected credit losses are measured through
a loss allowance at an amount equal to:

• the twelve months expected credit
losses (expected credit losses that
result from those default events on the
financial instrument that are possible
within twelve months after the reporting
date); or

• full lifetime expected credit losses
(expected credit losses that result from
all possible default events over the life
of the financial instrument).

• The Company follows 'simplified
approach' for recognition of impairment
loss allowance on:

• Trade receivables or contract revenue
receivables; and

• All lease receivables

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.

The Company uses a provision matrix to
determine impairment loss allowance on the
portfolio of trade receivables. The provision
matrix is based on its historically observed
default rates over the expected life of the
trade receivable and is adjusted for forward
looking estimates. At every reporting date,
the historical observed default rates are
updated and changes in the forward-looking
estimates are analysed.

For recognition of impairment loss on
other financial assets and risk exposure,
the Company determines that whether
there has been a significant increase in
the credit risk since initial recognition. If
credit risk has not increased significantly,
twelve months ECL is used to provide for
impairment loss. However, if credit risk has
increased significantly, lifetime ECL is used.
If, in a subsequent period, credit quality of
the instrument improves such that there is
no longer a significant increase in credit risk
since initial recognition, then the Company
reverts to recognising impairment loss
allowance based on twelve months ECL.

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.

B. Financial liabilities

i. Initial recognition and measurement

All financial liabilities are recognised initially
at fair value and, in the case of loans and
borrowings and payables, net of directly
attributable transaction costs.

The Company's financial liabilities include
trade and other payables, loans and
borrowings including bank overdrafts, and
derivative financial instruments.

ii. Subsequent measurement

The measurement of financial liabilities
depends on their classification, as described
below:

a. Financial liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss

b. Financial liabilities at fair value through
profit or loss include financial liabilities
held for trading and financial liabilities
designated upon initial recognition as at
fair value through profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are classified as
held for trading if they are incurred
for the purpose of repurchasing in the
near term. This category also includes
derivative financial instruments entered
into by the Company that are not
designated as hedging instruments in
hedge relationships as defined by IND
AS 109. Separate embedded derivatives
are also classified as held for trading
unless they are designated as effective
hedging instruments.

Gains or losses on liabilities held for
trading are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss.

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

iii. Loans and borrowings:

After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans
and borrowings are subsequently measured
at amortised cost using the effective interest
rate (EIR) method.

Gains and losses are recognised in profit or
loss when the liabilities are derecognised as
well as through the EIR amortisation process.

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 as finance costs in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

iv. Financial guarantee contracts:

Financial guarantee contracts issued by the
Company are those contracts that require a
payment to be made to reimburse the holder
for a loss it incurs because the specified
debtor fails to make a payment when due
in accordance with the terms of a debt
instrument. Financial guarantee contracts
are recognised initially as a liability at fair
value, adjusted for transaction costs that
are directly attributable to the issuance of
the guarantee. Subsequently, the liability is
measured at the higher of the amount of loss
allowance determined as per impairment
requirements of Ind AS 109 and the amount
recognised less cumulative amortisation.

v. Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognised when the
obligation under the liability is discharged
or is cancelled or expires. When an existing
financial liability is replaced by another from
the same lender on substantially different
terms, or the terms of an existing liability are
substantially modified, such an exchange or
modification is treated as the derecognition
of the original liability and the recognition
of a new liability. The difference in the
respective carrying amounts is recognised in
the statement of profit and loss.

vi. 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.

C. Derivative financial instruments and hedge
accounting

Initial recognition and subsequent
measurement

The Company uses derivative financial
instruments, such as forward currency
contracts, interest rate swaps and forward
commodity contracts, to hedge its foreign
currency risks, interest rate risks and
commodity price risks, respectively.

Such derivative financial instruments are
initially recognised at fair value on the date on
which a derivative contract is entered into and
are subsequently re-measured at fair value.
Derivatives are carried as financial assets
when the fair value is positive and as financial
liabilities when the fair value is negative.

The purchase contracts that meet the
definition of a derivative under IND AS 109 are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss

B. Other operating income & Other income

• Eligible export incentives are recognised in
the year in which the conditions precedent
are met and there is no significant
uncertainty about the collectability. In
respect of incentives attributable to the
export of goods, the Company following the
accounting principle of matching revenue
with the cost has recognised export incentive
receivable when all conditions precedent to
the eligibility of benefits have been satisfied
and when it is reasonably certain of deriving
the benefit. Since these schemes are meant
for neutralisation of duties and taxes on
inputs pursuant to exports, the same are
grouped under material costs.

The other export incentives that do not arise
out of neutralisation of duties and taxes are
disclosed under other operating revenue.

• Revenue in respect of Insurance /other
claims, commission etc. are recognised
only when it is reasonably certain that the
ultimate collection will be made.

• Interest income is recognised on time
proportion basis taking into account the
amount outstanding and the rate applicable.

• Dividend income is recognised when the
right to receive the same is established.

• Current investments are marked to market
at the end of the relevant period and the
resultant gains or losses are recognised in
the Income statement.

• For all debt instruments measured either at
amortised cost or at fair value through other
comprehensive income, interest income is
recorded using the effective interest rate
(EIR). EIR is the rate that exactly discounts
the estimated future cash payments
or receipts over the expected life of the
financial instrument or a shorter period,
where appropriate, to the gross carrying
amount of the financial asset or to the
amortised cost of a financial liability. When
calculating the effective interest rate, the
Company estimates the expected cash flows
by considering all the contractual terms
of the financial instrument (for example,
prepayment, extension, call and similar

options) but does not consider the expected
credit losses. Interest income is included in
finance income in the statement of profit and
loss.

• Insurance claim are accounted when the
right to receive is established and the claim
is admitted by the surveyor

o) Employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within
twelve months rendering services are classified
as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such
as salaries, wages, short-term compensated
absences, performance incentives etc., and
the expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are
recognised during the period in which the
employee renders related service.

Retirement benefit in the form of provident
fund is a defined contribution scheme. The
Company has no obligation, other than the
contribution payable to the provident fund.
The Company recognises contribution
payable to the provident fund scheme as
an expense, when an employee renders the
related service.

Gratuity, a defined benefit obligation is
provided on the basis of an actuarial
valuation made at the end of each year/
period on projected unit credit method.

The cost of providing benefits under the
defined benefit plan is determined using the
projected unit credit method with actuarial
valuations being carried out at each balance
sheet date, which recognises each period
of service as giving rise to additional unit of
employee benefit entitlement and measure
each unit separately to build up the final
obligation.

Re-measurements, comprising of actuarial
gains and losses, the effect of the asset
ceiling, excluding amounts included in net
interest on the net defined benefit liability and
the return on plan assets (excluding amounts
included in net interest on the net defined
benefit liability), are recognised immediately
in the balance sheet with a corresponding
debit or credit to other comprehensive
income in the period in which they occur.
Re-measurements are not reclassified to the

statement of profit and loss in subsequent
periods. Past service cost is recognised in
the statement of profit and loss in the period
of plan amendment.

The Company recognises the following
changes in the net defined benefit obligation
under employee benefit expenses in the
statement of profit and loss:

• Service costs comprising current service
costs, past-service costs, gains and losses
on curtailments and non-routine settlements.

• Net interest expense or income.

Long-term employee benefits

Compensated absences which are not expected
to occur within twelve months after the end of
the period in which the employee renders the
related services are recognised as a liability at the
present value of the defined benefit obligation at
the balance sheet date.

Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable as a result
of the Company's decision to terminate
employment before the normal retirement date,
or whenever an employee accepts voluntary
redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The
Company recognises these benefits when it has
demonstrably undertaken to terminate current
employees' employment in accordance with a
formal detailed plan that cannot be withdrawn, or
to provide severance indemnities as a result of an
offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.
Benefits that will not be paid within twelve months
of the balance sheet date are discounted to their
present value.

Termination benefits are recognised as an
expense in the period in which they are incurred.

p) Income Taxes:

Tax expenses comprise current tax and deferred
tax:

i. Current tax:

Tax on income for the current period is
determined on the basis of estimated
taxable income and tax credits computed
in accordance with the provisions of the
relevant tax laws and based on the expected
outcome of assessments/ appeals.

Current income tax relating to items
recognised directly in equity is recognised in
equity and not in the statement of profit and
loss. Management periodically evaluates
positions taken in the tax returns with
respect to situations in which applicable tax
regulations are subject to interpretation and
establishes provisions where appropriate.

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 for each
jurisdiction 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 on the basis of the tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period in the countries
where the Company and its subsidiaries and
associates operate and generate taxable
income. Management periodically evaluates
positions taken in tax returns with respect to
situations in which applicable tax regulation
is subject to interpretation. It establishes
provisions where appropriate on the basis
of amounts expected to be paid to the tax
authorities.

ii. Deferred tax:

Deferred tax is provided using the balance
sheet approach on temporary differences
at the reporting date between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amount in the standalone financial
statement for financial reporting purposes at
the reporting date.

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 reassessed at each reporting 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 liability settled, based on the tax
rates (tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised
outside the statement of profit and loss is
recognised outside the statement of profit
and loss. Deferred tax items are recognised
in correlation to the underlying transaction
either in other comprehensive income or
directly 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
income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes
relate to the same taxable entity and the
same taxation authority.

The break-up of major components of
deferred tax assets and liabilities as at
balance sheet date has been arrived at
after setting off deferred tax assets and
liabilities where the Company have a legally
enforceable right to set-off assets against
liabilities and where such assets and
liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by
the same governing taxation laws.

For items recognised in OCI or equity,
deferred / current tax is also recognised in
OCI or equity.

iii. MAT credit:

Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in a year
is charged to the statement of profit and loss
as current tax. The Company recognises
MAT credit available as a deferred tax asset
only to the extent that there is reasonable
certainty that the Company will pay normal
income tax during the specified period, i.e.,
the period for which MAT credit is allowed
to be carried forward. The MAT credit to the
extent there is reasonable certainty that the
Company will utilise the credit is recognised
in the statement of profit and loss and
corresponding debit is done to the deferred
tax asset as unused tax credit.

q) Leases

As a lessee

The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and

a lease liability at the lease commencement date.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost,
which comprises the initial amount of the lease
liability adjusted for any lease payments made at
or before the commencement date, plus any initial
direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to
dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to
restore the underlying asset or the site on which it
is located, less any lease incentives received.

The right-of-use assets are subsequently
depreciated using the straight-line method from
the commencement date to the earlier of the
end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset
or the end of the lease term. In addition, the
right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by
impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain
re-measurements of the lease liability. The lease
liability is initially measured at amortised cost at
the present value of the lease payments that are
not paid at the commencement date, discounted
using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if
that rate cannot be readily determined, using the
incremental borrowing rate.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
the Company has elected not to recognise right-
of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term
leases that have a lease term of twelve months or
less and leases of low-value assets. The Company
recognises the lease payments associated with
these leases as an expense in statement of profit
and loss.

r) Research and development:

Revenue expenditure on research and
development is charged to statement of profit
and loss in the year in which it is incurred. Capital
expenditure on research and development is
considered as an addition to property, plant &
equipment / intangible assets.

s) Earnings per share:

Earnings per share are calculated by dividing
the net profit or loss before OCI for the year by
the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the period. For the purpose
of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net
profit or loss before OCI 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.

t) Dividend distribution

Dividend distribution to the equity holders is
recognised as a liability in the Company's annual
accounts in the year in which the dividends are
approved by the Company's equity holders.

u) Trade payables & trade receivables

A payable is classified as a ‘trade payable' if it is in
respect of the amount due on account of goods
purchased or services received in the normal course
of business. These amounts represent liabilities for
goods and services provided to the Company prior to
the end of the financial year which are unpaid. These
amounts are unsecured and are usually settled as
per the payment terms stated in the contract. Trade
and other payables are presented as current liabilities
unless payment is not due within twelve months after
the reporting period. They are recognised initially
at their fair value and subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the EIR method.

A receivable is classified as a ‘trade receivable'
if it is in respect of the amount due on account
of goods sold or services rendered in the
normal course of business. Trade receivables
are recognised initially at transaction value and
subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the EIR method, less provision for impairment.

v) Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner
consistent with the internal reporting provided to
the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the
Company. The CODM is responsible for allocating
resources and assessing performance of the
operating segments of the Company.

w) Business Combinations

Business Combinations are accounted for using
Ind AS 103 'Business Combination'. Acquisitions
of businesses are accounted for using the
acquisition method unless the transaction is
between entities under common control.

Business Combinations arising from transfer
of interests in entities that are under common
control, are accounted using pooling of interest
method wherein, assets and liabilities of the
combining entities are reflected at their carrying
value. No adjustment is made to reflect fair values,
or recognise any new assets or liabilities other than
those required to harmonise accounting policies.

(b) During the previous year, the Company acquired land and buildings as part of its expansion plans. Buildings requiring
modification and alterations to prepare them for their intended use are classified as Capital Work in Progress (CWIP).
There are no buildings acquired during the current year.

(c) During the previous year, depreciation on assets utilised in association with the expansion plans was recorded as project
expenses pending allocation amounting to ' 10.32 Mn and charged to Capital Work in Progress (CWIP).

(d) Additions to the gross block and accumulated depreciation as of April 01, 2023, represent the amounts recorded
pursuant to the amalgamation of Yellow Stone Fine Chemicals Private Limited (YFCPL), a wholly-owned subsidiary, with
the Company. This amalgamation, being a business combination under common control, has been accounted for in
accordance with Appendix C of Ind AS 103. Furthermore, additions to the gross block and accumulated depreciation for
the financial year ended March 31,2024, reflect the combined effect of capital additions made by both the Company and
the transferor entity, YFCPL.

(e) Impairment assessment by the Management of certain tangible assets, intangible assets and Capital work-in-progress
(CWIP) related to Electro Chemical Fluorination (ECF) used for manufacturing chemicals

The Company has carried out a review of recoverable amount in respect of certain tangible assets, intangible assets and
capital work-in-progress (CWIP) considering decline in performance, among other internal factors. The assessment was
based on the management's business plans and projections which were approved by the Board of Directors. The key
assumptions used for computation of value-in-use were sales growth rate, gross profit margins, long-term growth rate (cash
flows beyond the 5 years period are extrapolated using the estimated long-term growth rate) and the risk-adjusted pre-tax
discount rate. The discount rates were derived from the Company's weighted average cost of capital, taking into account the
cost of capital, to which specific market-related premium adjustments are made. The Company had performed sensitivity
analysis by changing the variables independently, keeping the other variables constant, based upon which, there would be
no material impairment charge which would impact the decision of the users of the standalone financial statements.

The carrying value of above mentioned assets is as follows:

(b) Initial Public Offer

In 2020-21, the Company had completed the Initial public offer ("The Offer/lPO") of 4,61,53,846 equity shares of face value
of ' 2/- each at a price of ' 130/- per share (including a premium of ' 128/- per share) aggregating to ' 6,000.00 Mn.

The Offer comprised of a fresh issue of 2,30,76,923 equity shares aggregating to ' 3,000.00 Mn and an offer for sale of
2,30,76,923 equity shares aggregating to ' 3,000.00 Mn by Yellow Stone Trust.

The Company also did private placement of 1,55,03,875 equity shares of face value of ' 2/- each at a price of ' 129/- per
share (including a premium of ' 127/- per share) aggregating to ' 2,000.00 Mn ("Pre-IPO Placement").

Total securities premium received from IPO and pre IPO placement is ' 4,922.84 Mn and was reduced by the Company's
share of IPO related expenses of ' 156.99 Mn which resulted into net receipt of securities premium of ' 4,765.85 Mn.

Pursuant to the IPO, the equity shares of the Company got listed on BSE Limited and NSE limited on March 25, 2021.

*There had been a saving in the original estimate of IPO issue expenses (Company's share) of ' 43.58 Mn which has
resulted in increase in total available fund net off expenses from ' 4,799.94 Mn to ' 4,843.52 Mn. This amount is adjusted
in general corporate purposes.

Further the actual utilisation towards repayment of loan was lower by ' 63.94 Mn and in terms of our prospectus we
are entitled to allocate such amount to general corporate purposes so long as the allocation does not result in general
corporate purpose exceeding 25%. This has resulted in general corporate purpose increasing from ' 637.29 to ' 744.76 Mn.

*#Balance of IPO proceeds as at March 31, 2025 and as at March 31, 2024 which are kept in fixed deposit and bank
balance are shown under Bank Balances other than cash and cash equivalents (refer note 10B).

(c) Qualified Institutional Placement

On October 10, 2023, the Company had completed the Qualified Institutional Placement offer ("QIP") of 96,25,579

38 EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN

(a) Employee Stock Option Plan 2020:

Pursuant to the resolutions passed by the Board
on October 30, 2020 and by the shareholders on
November 24, 2020, the Company has approved
the Laxmi - Employee Stock Option Plan 2020
("ESOP-2020") for issue of employee stock
options ("ESOPs"). The primary objective of ESOP-
2020 is to reward the employees and to retain
and motivate the employees of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, by way of
rewarding their high performance and motivate
them to contribute to the overall corporate growth
and profitability.

The eligibility of the Employees will be based
on designation, period of service, performance
linked parameters such as work performance and
such other criteria as may be determined by the
Nomination and Remuneration Committee at its
sole discretion, from time to time.

Options granted under Plan shall vest not earlier
than 1 (One) year and not later than maximum
Vesting Period of 3 (Three) years from the date of
Grant.

During the year, additional 6,33,251 equity shares
were granted under Laxmi - Employee Stock
Option Plan 2020 ("ESOP-2020").

The management assessed that fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade receivables, trade payables, book
overdrafts and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short¬
term maturities of these instruments.

41 FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY

This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are

(a) recognised and measured at fair value 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 group has classified its
financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows
underneath the table."

Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
(i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

42 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company is exposed to various financial risks arising from its underlying operations and financial activities. The
Company is primarily exposed to market risk (i.e. interest rate and foreign currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The
Company's treasury function plays the role of monitoring financial risk arising from business operations and financing
activities.

Financial risk management, which includes foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, credit and liquidity risk are very closely
monitored by the senior management, the Finance Committee and the Board of Directors. The Company has a Forex
Risk Management policy under which all the forex hedging operations are done. The Company's policies and guidelines
also cover areas such as cash management, investment of excess funds and the raising of short and long term debt.
Compliance with the policies and guidelines is managed by the Corporate Treasury function. The objective of financial risk
management is to manage and control financial risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

The Company manages its market risk exposures by using specific type of financial instruments duly approved by the
Board of Directors as and when deemed appropriate. The Company reviews and approves policies for managing each of
the above risk.

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk arising out of the fluctuations in fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument because
of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other
price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes loans and
borrowings, deposits, investments and derivative financial instruments. The Company enters into the derivative contracts
as approved by the Board to manage its exposure to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk, from time to time.

(i) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk also known as Exchange Currency Risk is the risk arising out of fluctuation in the fair value
or future cash flows of an exposure because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Foreign currency risk in the
Company is attributable to company's operating activities and financing activities. In the operating activities, the
Company's exchange rate risk primarily arises when revenue/costs are generated in a currency that is different from
the functional currency (transaction risk). The Company manages the exposure based on a duly approved policy
by the Board, which is reviewed by Board of Directors on periodic basis. This foreign currency risk exposure of the
Company is mainly in U.S. Dollar (US$), Euro (EUR) and Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY).

Foreign exchange derivative contracts

The Company enters into derivative contracts with an intention to hedge its foreign exchange price risk and interest
risk. Derivative contracts which are linked to the underlying transactions are recognised in accordance with the
contract terms. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial
assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Any gains or losses
arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to Statement of Profit & Loss.

(b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from the movements in interest rates which could have effects on the Company's net income or
financial position. Changes in interest rates may cause variations in interest income and expenses resulting from interest¬
bearing assets and liabilities. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to
the Company's borrowing obligations with floating interest rates.

The Company manages its interest rate risk by having an agreed portfolio of fixed and variable rate borrowings. Out of the
total borrowings, the amount of floating interest loan is ' 500.00 Mn (March 31, 2024: ' 1303.40 Mn). With all the other
variables remaining constant, the following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonable change in interest rates on
the borrowings:

(C) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables)
and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions
and other financial instruments.

Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customer. Credit risk has always
been managed by the Company through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the
creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company
uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables. The provision matrix takes
into account a continuing credit evaluation of the Company customers' financial condition; ageing of trade accounts
receivable and the Company's historical loss experience.

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company's Corporate Treasury function
in accordance with the Company's policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with counter parties who meet the
parameters specified in Investment Policy of the Company. The investment policy is reviewed by the Company's Board of
Directors on periodic basis and if required, the same may be updated during the year. The investment policy specifies the
limits of investment in various categories of products so as the minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate
financial loss due to counter party's potential failure.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The
Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due
without incurring unacceptable losses.

The Company maintained a cautious liquidity strategy, with a positive cash balance throughout the years ended March
31,2025 and March 31,2024. Cash flow from operating activities provides the funds to service the financial liabilities on
a day-to-day basis. The Company regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure it has sufficient cash on an on-going
basis to meet operational needs. Any short term surplus cash generated, over and above the amount required for working
capital management and other operational requirements, is retained as cash and cash equivalents (to the extent required)
and any excess is invested in interest bearing term deposits and other highly marketable liquid debt investments with
appropriate maturities to optimise the returns on investments while ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities.
