2.16 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when there is a present obligation
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 there is a reliable estimate of
the amount of the obligation. Provisions are measured at
the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the
present obligation at the balance sheet date and are not
discounted to its present value, except where the effect of
the time value of money is material.

Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible
obligation arising from past events, the existence of which
will be confirmed only by the more uncertain future events
not wholly within the control of the Company or a present
obligation that arises from past events where it is either not
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to
settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.

2.17 Offsetting Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount
is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally
enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there
is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and
settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable
right must not be contingent on future events and must be
enforceable in the normal course of business and in event
of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the
counterparty.

2.18 Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent
with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating
decision maker. The Board of Directors of the Company has
been identified as being the chief operating decision maker.
Refer note 36 for segment information presented.

2.19 Leases

As a lessee Leases are recognised as right of use assets and a
correspondence liability at the date at which the leased asset
is available for use by the Company. Contract may contain
both lease and non-lease components. The Company
allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and
non-lease components based on their relative standalone

prices. Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially
measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include
the net present value of the following lease payment:-

a) Fixed payments (including in substance fixed
payments) less any lease incentive receivable.

b) Variable lease payment that are based on an index or a
rate, initially measured using the index or a rate at the
commencement date.

c) Amount expected to be paid by the Company as
under residual value guarantees.

d) Exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is
reasonably certain to exercise that option.

e) Payment of penalties for terminating the lease, if
the lease term reflects the Company exercising that
option. Lease payments to be made under reasonably
certain extension options are also included in the
measurement of the liability. The lease payments
are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the
lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which
is generally the case for leases in the Company, the
lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being
the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay
to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of
similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar
economic environment with similar terms, security
and conditions.

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:

a) Where possible, use recent third party financing
received by the individual lessee as a starting point,
adjusted to reflect changes in the financing conditions
since third party-financing was received.

b) Use a built up approach that starts with risk free
interest rate adjusted for credit risk of leases held by
Gloster Limited, which does not have recent third
party financing.

If a readily observable amortising loan rate is available to the
individual lessee (through recent financing or market data)
which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the
company uses that rate as a starting point to determine the
incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments are allocated
between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is
charged to Statement of Profit and Loss over the lease period
so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the
remaining balance of the liability for each period. Right-of
use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:-

i) the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability

ii) any lease payment made at or before the
commencement date less any lease incentive received

iii) any initial direct cost and

iv) restoration costs.

Right of use assets are generally depreciated over the
shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a
straight line basis. Payment associated with short-term
leases of equipment and all the leases of low value assets
are recognised on a straight line basis as an expense in the
Statement of Profit and Loss. Short term leases are leases
with a lease term of 12 months or less.

2.20 Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods
sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business
and reflects Company's unconditional right to consideration
(that is, payment is due only on the passage of time). Trade
receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price as
they do not contain Significant financing components. The
Company holds the trade receivables with the objective of
collecting the contractual cash flows and therefore measures
them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, less loss allowance.

2.21 Rounding of Amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes
have been rounded off to the nearest Lakhs (with two place
of decimal) as per the requirement of schedule 111, unless
otherwise stated.

2A Critical Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires the use
of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom
equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise
judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a
higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which
are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and
assumptions turning out to be different than those originally
assessed.

(i) Estimation of defined benefit obligation- Refer note 28 of the
financial statements.

(ii) Estimated fair value of unlisted securities -Refer notes 5 (b), 9
(a), and 33 of the -financial statements.

(iii) Useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment, Goodwill and
Other Intangible assets - Refer note 2.3 & 2.4 above and notes
3, 4(c) & 4(d) of the financial statements.

(iv) Net realizable value of inventory.

(v) Recoverable amount of investment in Subsidiaries (for
investment held at cost).

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated. They are
based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that may have a financial impact
on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances.

The Company makes Pension Fund and Superannuation Fund contributions to defined contribution plans for qualifying employees.
Under the Schemes, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of the payroll costs to fund the benefits. The
contributions payable to these plans by the Company are at rates specified in the rules of the schemes.

(ii) Defined benefit plan

(a) Gratuity:

The employees' gratuity fund scheme is managed by a Trust and is a defined benefit plan. The funds of the trust are managed by
approved insurance companies. Every employee is entitled to a benefit equivalent to fifteen day's salary last drawn for each completed
year of service in line with Payment of Gratuity Act,1972. The same is payable at the time of separation from the Company or retirement,
whichever is earlier. Gratuity benefit vests after five year of continuous service. The present value of obligation is determined based on
actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service as giving rise to additional unit of
employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation.

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely
to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to
significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit
method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied while calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.
The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

Major categories of plan assets

The defined benefit plan is funded with insurance companies of
India. The Company does not have any liberty to manage the funds
provided to insurance companies. Thus the composition of each
major category of plan assets has not been disclosed.

Risk exposure

Through its defined benefit plans the Company is exposed to a
number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:

Investment risk:

The defined benefit plans are funded with insurance company
of India. The Company does not have any liberty to manage the
funds provided to insurance company. The fund is managed
by the insurance company and the assets are invested
in their conventional group gratuity product. The fund is
subject to market risk as the price of units may go up or down.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated
using a discount rate determined by reference to the Government
of India bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will
create a plan deficit.

Interest rate risk:

The defined benefit obligation is calculated using a discount rate
based on government bonds. If the bond yields fall, the defined
benefit obligation will tend to increase.

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature
of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and
retirement.

The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation
is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of
salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important
not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the

retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less
per year as compared to a long service employee.

Salary growth risk

The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated
by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. Higher
than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit
obligation.

Defined benefit liability and employer contributions

Expected contributions to post-employment benefits plans for the
year ending 31 March 2026 ' Nil.

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is
9 years ( 31 March 2024 - 8 years ).

(b) Provident fund

The Provident fund is managed by the Company in the line
with the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous
Provision Act, 1952. The Fund is exempted under section 17
of Employees' Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provision
Act, 1952. Condition for grant of exemption stipulate that the
employer shall make good deficiency, if any, in the interest
declared by the trust vis-a-vis statutory rate. The contribution
by the employer and employees together with the interest
accumulated there on are payable to the employees at the
time of their separation from the company or retirement,
whichever is earlier. In view of the Company's obligation
to meet the interest shortfall, this is a defined benefit plan.
The Contribution made by the Company and the shortfall of the
interest, if any, are recognised as an expense in the statement
of profit & loss under employee benefit expense in accordance
with an actuarial valuation of provident fund liabilities based
on guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on
assumptions as mentioned below. Also refer note 21.

The investments in equity instruments are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium or long term investment. Upon the
application of Ind AS 109, the Company has chosen to designate these investments in equity instruments at FVOCI as the management
believe that this provides a more meaningful presentation for medium or long-term investments, than reflecting changes in fair value
immediately in profit or loss.

(i) 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 Company 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 in an active market]

Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using
quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and debentures
that have quoted price available. The fair value of all equity instruments
which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing
price as at the reporting period.

Level 2 [Fair values determined using valuation techniques with
observable inputs]

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an
active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives), Portfolio
Management Scheme (PMS) and Alternate Investment Fund (AIF), 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.

Level 3 [Fair values determined using valuation techniques with
significant unobservable inputs]

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable
market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is generally the
case for unlisted equity securities and certain Alternative Investment
Funds (Equity & Debt ), wherein undelying investments are mainly real
estate / investment in equity shares of unlisted entities.

There are no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the
year.

(ii) Valuation techniques used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments

include:

• the use of quoted market prices for quoted equity shares and
debentures.

• the fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined
using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date.

• Investments in PMS and AIF carried at fair value, are generally based on
available NAVs. The fair value ofthe unquoted equity shares is determined
using valuation technique that maximises the use of relevant observable
inputs and minimises the use of unobservable inputs.

• The carrying amounts of trade receivables, loans, cash and
cash equivalents, other bank balances, other financial assets,
security deposits, trade payables and other financial liabilities are
approximate to their fair values.

• Management uses its best judgement in estimating the fair value
of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations
in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial
instruments, the fair value estimates presented above are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could have
realised or paid in sale transactions as of respective dates. As such,
fair value of financial instruments subsequent to the reporting dates
may be different from the amounts reported at each reporting date.

• For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the
carrying amounts are equal to their fair values.

c) Valuation processes

The finance department of the Company includes a team
that performs the valuations of financial assets and liabilities
required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair
values. This team reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer
(CFO). The company also involves external valuation expert,
who presents a report that explains the reasons for the fair
value movements. Discussions of valuation processes and
results are held between the CFO, external valuation expert
and the valuation team at least once every year, in line with the
company's reporting periods.

The main level 3 inputs for unlisted equity securities and
certain Alternative Investment Funds used by the company are
derived and evaluated as follows:

1) Cost or assets approach is used to derive the adjusted Net
Asset Value which involves determining the value per share
based on the respective assets and liabilities.

2) Determination of NAV based on the underlying investments of
Alternative Investment Fund.

iv) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at
amortised cost; the carrying amounts of financial assets and
financial liabilities recognised in the financial statements
approximates their fair values.

v) Derecognition of Investment in equity instrument
designated at FVOCI :

The Company has derecognised the Investment in equity
instrument designated at FVOCI amounting to ' 3,111.96
Lakhs ( 31 March 2024 : ' 2,679.96 Lakhs ) and the gain/(loss)
on such disposal (net of tax) amounting to ' 1,415 Lakhs ( 31
March 2024 : ' 891.97 Lakhs ) has been transferred to Retained
Earnings.

The company has disposed certain investments designated
as OCI since management does not see any significant
appreciation in investments in medium / long-term.

(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 is exposed to credit risk from
its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) including
deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange
transactions and other financial instruments carried at amortised
cost and fair value through Profit & Loss.

i) Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company through
established policy and procedures and control relating to
customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non¬
interest bearing and are generally carrying 30 to 90 days credit
terms. The Company has a detailed review mechanism of overdue
customer receivables at various levels within organisation to
ensure proper attention and focus for realisation. Trade receivables
are consisting of a large number of customers. Where credit
risk is high, domestic trade receivables are backed by security
deposits. Export receivables are backed by letters of credit.
Financial assets are considered to be of good quality and there is
no significant increase in credit risk.

Provision for expected credit loss

The requirement for impairment is analysed at each reporting date.
For impairment, individual debtors are identified and assessed
specifically. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with
respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located
in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely
independent markets. There has been no material default history
in the past and accordingly no provision is considered necessary.
The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is
primarily from trade receivables.

ii) Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks and investments is managed
by the Company's finance department in accordance with the
Company's policy. Investments of surplus fund in portfolio

management services, alternative investment funds, direct
equity, debentures and in private companies are made only with
approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to
each counterparty, if any. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed
by the Company's Board of Directors on an annual basis, and
may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of the
Company's Board of Directors. The limits are set to minimise the
concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through
counterparty's potential failure to make payments.

Balances with banks and deposits are placed only with highly
rated banks.

The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk for the
components of the balance sheet is the carrying amounts as
disclosed.

(B) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in
meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are
settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

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. Management monitors rolling
forecasts of the Company's liquidity position (comprising the
undrawn borrowing facilities) and cash and cash equivalents on
the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company's financial liabilities
into relevant maturity group based on their contractual
maturities.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual
undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months
equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is
not significant.

(ii) Interest rate risk (All amounts in ' LaKns, unless otherwise stated)

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's debt obligations
with floating interest rates.

The Company's fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk, since neither the
carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

(iii) Security price risk

The Company's expense to equity securities price risk arises from instruments held by the Company and classified in the Balance Sheet
either as fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) or at fair value through Profit or Loss (Refer Note 33).

To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities the Company diversifies its portfolio.

(a) Interest rate risk exposure on financial liabilities

The exposure of the Company's financial liabilities to interest rate risk is as follows:

Note: 35 Capital Management
(a) Risk management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to:

• 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.

The capital structure of the Company is based on management's
judgement of the appropriate balance of key elements in order to
meet its strategic and day-to-day needs. The Company manages
its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes
in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial
covenants. The funding requirement is met through a mixture of
equity, long term borrowings and short term borrowings.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company
may adjust the amount of dividend paid to shareholders, return
capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce
debt.

The Company monitors capital on the basis of the following
gearing ratio:

• net debt (total borrowings and lease liabilities net of cash and
cash equivalents)

• divided by total equity
Loan covenants

Under the terms of the major borrowing facilities, the Company is
required to comply with certain financial covenants. The Company
has complied with the debt covenants throughout the reporting
period.
