3.6 Provisions :
Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying
economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and there is a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed
at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting
period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or
disclosure is made.
3.7 Employee Benefits :
A) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid
if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and
the obligation can be estimated reliably.
B) Contribution to provident fund and ESIC
Company’s contribution paid/payable during the year to provident fund and ESIC is recognised in the Statement of profit and loss
C) Gratuity
The Company’s liability towards gratuity scheme is determined by independent actuaries, using the projected unit credit method. The
present value of the defined benefit obligation 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. Past
services are recognised at the earlier of the plan amendment / curtailment and recognition of related restructuring costs/ termination
benefits.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of
plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the Statement of profit and loss.
Remeasurement gains/ losses-
Remeasurement of defined benefit plans, comprising of actuarial gains / losses, return on plan assets excluding interest income are
recognised immediately in the balance sheet with corresponding debit or credit to Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Remeasurements
are not reclassified to Statement of profit and loss in the subsequent period.
Remeasurement gains or losses on long-term compensated absences that are classified as other long-term benefits are recognised in
Statement of profit and loss.
D) Leave encashment / compensated absences
The Company provides for the encashment / availment of leave with pay subject to certain rules. The employees are entitled to accumulate
leave subject to certain limits for future encashment / availment. The liability is provided based on the number of days of unutilized leave
at each balance sheet date on the basis of an independent actuarial valuation.
3.8 Revenue recognition
A) Recognition of interest income on loans
Interest income is recognised in Statement of profit and loss using the effective interest method for all financial instruments measured at
amortised cost, debt instruments measured at FVOCI and debt instruments designated at FVTPL. The ‘effective interest rate’ is the rate
that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument.
The calculation of the effective interest rate includes transaction costs and fees that are an integral part of the contract. Transaction costs
include incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of financial asset.
If expectations regarding the cash flows on the financial asset are revised for reasons other than credit risk, the adjustment is recorded
as a positive or negative adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset in the balance sheet with an increase or reduction in interest
income. The adjustment is subsequently amortised through Interest income in the Statement of profit and loss.
The Company calculates interest income by applying the EIR to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than credit-impaired
assets.
When a financial asset becomes credit-impaired, the Company calculates interest income by applying the effective interest rate to the
net amortised cost of the financial asset. If the financial asset cures and is no longer credit impaired, the Company reverts to calculating
interest income on a gross basis.
Additional interest and interest on trade advances, are recognised when they become measurable and when it is not unreasonable to
expect their ultimate collection.
Income from bill discounting is recognised over the tenure of the instrument so as to provide a constant periodic rate of return.
B) Rental income :
Income from operating leases is recognised in the Statement of profit and loss as per contractual rentals unless another systematic basis
is more representative of the time pattern in which benefit derived from the leased asset is diminished.
C) Fees and commission income :
Fee based income are recognised when they become measurable and when it is probable to expect their ultimate collection.
Commission and brokerage income earned for the services rendered are recognised as and when they are due.
D) Dividend and interest income on investments :
- Dividends are recognised in Statement of profit and loss only when the right to receive payment is established, it is probable that
the economic benefits associated with the dividend will flow to the Company and the amount of the dividend can be measured
reliably.
- Interest income from investments is recognised when it is certain that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount
of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the
effective interest rate applicable.
3.9 Finance costs
Finance costs include interest expense computed by applying the effective interest rate on respective financial instruments measured at Amortised
cost. Financial instruments include bank term loans, non-convertible debentures, fixed deposits mobilised, commercial papers, subordinated
debts and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded as an adjustment to the interest cost.
Finance costs are charged to the Statement of profit and loss.
3.10 Taxation - Current and deferred tax:
Income tax expense comprises of current tax and deferred tax. It is recognised in Statement of profit and loss except to the extent that it relates
to an item recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
A) Current tax :
Current tax comprises amount of tax payable in respect of the taxable income or loss for the year determined in accordance with Income
Tax Act, 1961 and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The Company’s current tax is calculated
using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
B) Deferred tax :
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying values
of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected
to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequence
that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying
amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible
temporary difference could be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from
the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. The carrying
amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that
sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
3.11 Leases
As a lessee
The Company has applied Ind AS 116. For these short term and low value leases, the company recognizes the lease payments as an expense
in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a Straight line basis over the term of lease.

relevant to explain the performance of the enterprise for the period, the nature and amount of such items is disclosed separately as Exceptional
items.
3.13 Earning per share
The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per equity share. Basic earnings per equity share have computed by dividing net profit/loss
attributable to the equity share holders for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted
earnings per equity share have been computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity share holders after giving impact of dilutive
potential equity shares for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares outstanding during
the year, except where the results are anti-dilutive.

instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, investments.
The company is exposed to market risk primarily related to the market value of its investments.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of Financial Instruments will fluctuate because of change in market interest
rates.The company does not have exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rate as it has debt obligations with fixed interest rates
which are measured at amortised cost.
Currency risk
Currently company does not have transaction in foreign currencies and hence the company is not exposed to currency risk.
Equity Price Risk
(a) Exposure

analysis is based on the assumption that the equity/ index had increased by 2% or decreased by 2% with all other variable held
constant, and that all the company’s equity instruments moved in line with the Index.
II. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party 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 financing activities towards inter corporate loans where no significant impact on credit
risk has been identified.
III. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral obligations without incurring
unacceptable losses.The Company manages its liquidity requirement by analysing the maturity pattern of Company’s cash flows of financial
assets and financial liabilities.

The management assessed that Fair Values of Financial Assets and Liabilities are approximately their carrying values.
35. Fair value hierarchy
The company determines fair values of its financial instruments according to the following hierarchy:
