x. 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.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax 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.
xi. Retirement and other employee benefits
Employee benefits include provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, gratuity fund and compensated absences.
Defined contribution plans
Post-employment benefit plans under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity (a fund) and the company does not have any legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. i.e. risk is transferred to the insurance company.
xii. 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
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. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
(i) Debt instruments at amortised cost
(ii) Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
(iii) Debt instruments, derivatives and equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
(iv) 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.
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 AS103 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.
If 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.
Derecognition
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 Group's consolidated balance sheet) when:
(i) The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
(ii) 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.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.
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.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or 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 or loss.
xiii. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash.
Net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company's cash management.
xiv. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit / (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extraordinary items, if any) as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income (net of any attributable taxes) relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations. Potential dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. average market value of the outstanding shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented. The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for share splits / reverse share splits and bonus shares, as appropriate.
xv. Impairment of assets
The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each balance sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognised, if the carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value based on an appropriate discount factor. When there is indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in earlier accounting periods no longer exists or may have decreased, such reversal of impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except in case of revalued assets.

xv) Certain comparative figures for the previous year have been reclassified to confirm to the current year's presentation, in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and in accordance with Ind AS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the financial statements have been retrospectively restated. The nature, amount, and reason for such reclassifications.
A) During the financial year 2024-25, the Company has reassessed the classification of certain equity investments previously presented under Non-Current Investments and measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI). Based on the revised assessment, it was determined that these investments are held for trading and, therefore, should be classified as Current Investments and measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL), in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments.
As a result, an amount of ?280.00 lakhs has been reclassified from Non-Current Assets to Current Assets in the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. This reclassification is consistent with the requirements of Ind AS 1, which mandates the separate presentation of items of dissimilar nature or function, and Ind AS 8, which requires changes in classification to be accounted for retrospectively where relevant.
The impact of this reclassification on the current year's financial statement presentation is as follows:
Non-Current Assets as previously presented: ?563.78 lakhs Less: Reclassified Non-Current Investments: ?280.00 lakhs Revised Non-Current Assets: ?283.78 lakhs Current Assets as previously presented: ?437.33 lakhs Add: Reclassified Current Investments: ?280.00 lakhs Revised Current Assets: ?717.33 lakhs
These investments were previously classified under the Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) category as per Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments. Upon reclassification, the cumulative gain/(loss) of Rs. (10.22) lakhs, previously recognized under Other Comprehensive Income (OCI), has been transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss, in line with the derecognition and reclassification requirements of Ind AS 109.
B) During the year, the Company has reclassified specific items previously presented under "Other Financial Liabilities" to "Other Current Liabilities", considering the nature of these items and the classification principles under Ind AS.
In the previous year, "Other Financial Liabilities" included Statutory Dues payable amounting to ?1.68 lakhs and Income Tax payable amounting to ?71.49 lakhs. These items have been reclassified to "Other Current Liabilities" as they are statutory liabilities.
Accordingly, the balance of "Other Financial Liabilities" for the previous year has been reduced from ?74.14 lakhs to ?0.98lakhs after reclassification.
These reclassifications have no impact on the profit, total assets, or equity of the Company for the comparative period and are intended solely to align the presentation with the current year's classification for better comparability.
C) During the current financial year, certain Fixed Deposits (FDs) with original maturity of more than 3 months but less than 12 months, previously classified under “Bank Balances other than Cash and Cash Equivalents,” have been reclassified to “Current Investments.” This reclassification has been carried out to align the presentation with the intended purpose and nature of these deposits, i.e., being held primarily for investment purposes.
This change in classification does not impact the total assets or net profit of the entity for the year. The comparative figures have been regrouped/reclassified wherever necessary to conform to current year's presentation.
Note. 23: Financial risk management:
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary risk management focus is to minimise potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company's risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities. The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company's risk assessment and management policies and processes.
a.) 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's credit risk arises from accounts receivable balances. Accounts receivable balances outstanding as on reporting date amount to 16.54 lakhs which pertains to the amount receivable from a non related party.
The finance function of the Company assesses and manages credit risk based on internal credit rating system. Internal credit rating is performed for each class of financial instruments with different characteristics.
Based on business environment in which the Company operates, a default on a financial asset is considered when the counterparty fails to make payments within the agreed time period as per contract. Loss rates reflecting defaults are based on actual credit loss experience, past experiences where it believes there is high probability of default and considering differences between current and historical economic conditions. In general all the trade receivables greater than 365 days are reviewed and provided for by analysing individual receivable.
b.) Liquidity risk
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 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.
Contractual maturities of financial liabilities
The table below analyses the Company's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying amounts as the impact of discounting is not significant.
c. Market risk- foreign exchange
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, deposits, trade receivables and other financial instruments. The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at 31st March 2025 and 31st 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.
e. Price Risk
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in share price arising on purchase/ sale of shares. The Company has a risk management framework aimed at prudently managing the risk arising from the volatility in commodity prices. The Company's commodity risk is managed centrally through well-established trading operations and control processes.
Capital Management
The Company's objective for capital management is to maximise shareholder value, safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
