c). Performance obligation

Information about the company''s performance obligations are summarised below:

Execution of long term contract for projects

a) Long term (Construction type) contracts- The long term contracts are ordinarily presumed to consist of combined obligations which are not distinct in the context of the contract (i.e., single performance obligation). This is highly attributed to the long-term construction-nature of the projects, whereby deliverables are typically highly interrelated and combined. The typical scope of long term contracts arrangements includes Engineering, manufacturing, shipment, delivery installation, testing, erection and commissioning and civil works. Although there are several components to the overall scope of the contract, the turnkey contracts are generally considered one performance obligation.

b) Products manufacturing and erection, commissioning and installation contracts- These contracts comprising of one performance obligations of supply of products and erection and commissioning thereof. When the manufacturing stage is complete, factory acceptance testing procedures are performed to ensure the equipment meets customer

specifications and may involve the customer physically observing the testing procedures. Revenue from contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and other consideration, is recognized as per the percentage of completion method. The Company uses the percentage of completion method based on the efforts or costs expended to the date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended.

c) The Company as part of its contracts, provides warranties of the equipment for defects arising out of poor workmanship, inferior material or manufacturing. Such warranty provided is in the nature of assurance warranty and is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation (also refer note:18).

d). Remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue.

The aggregate value of performance obligations that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at 31 March 2025 is in excess of H 126,575.0 million (31 March 2024: H 62,700 million).The conversion to revenue is highly dependent on meeting the delivery schedules, contractual terms and conditions with customers, availability of customer sites, changes/ variation in scope/ prices etc. In view of these, it is not practical to define the accurate percentage of conversion to revenue.

Nature of CSR activities Promoting Education and Health Care

The company has not entered into any project activities during the year.

*- In financial year 2021-22, the company has spent H 4.5 million against an CSR obligation of H 2.5 million as per Sec 135 of the Companies Act 2013, which has been set-off with the current year obligation.

**-The implementation agency has spent an amount of H 0.3 million for which the fund''s have been disbursed in April 2025 and accordingly its benefit will be claimed in next financial year.

32. Income tax expense

This note provides an analysis of the Company''s income tax expense, and how the tax expense is affected by non-assessable and non-deductible items. It also explains significant estimates made in relation to the Company''s tax positions.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

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

The following methods and assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values:

- The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with banks. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward contracts (used for hedging purposes) is the net present value technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

Risk Management Framework

The Company''s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company''s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company''s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

(A). Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

(ii) Provision for expected credit losses

a. Security deposit and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances H 308.2 million (31 March 2024: H 231.1 million), management believes the parties to which these deposits have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided for. All the export benefits (included in other financial assets) are receivable from Government and therefore expected probability of default is negligible or nil.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. The Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable.

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 and delay rates over the expected life of the trade receivable. At year end, the historical observed default and delay rates are updated and analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements, the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company''s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn working capital facilities) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities, and net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. 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.

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 of interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and other financial liabilities.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company''s policy is to hedge all material firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

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.

(E) Hedge Accounting

The Company enters into hedging instruments in accordance with policies as approved by the Board of Directors with written principles which is consistent with the risk management strategy of the Company. The Company has decided to apply hedge accounting for certain derivative contracts that meets the qualifying criteria of hedging relationship entered post April 01, 2023. Hedging strategies are decided and monitored periodically by Chief Financial Officer and Board of Directors of the Company.

Cash Flow Hedge

Foreign exchange forward contracts are designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedges of forecasted hedged items in foreign currencies (refer below note), etc. These forecast transactions are highly probable. The foreign exchange forward contract balances vary with the level of expected foreign currency sales and purchases along with changes in foreign exchange forward rates.

(B) Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed four years and one ninety days or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn basic salary including dearness allowance (if any)) for each completed year of service. The plan is funded with an insurance company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

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.

The following tables summarise the components of net employee benefit expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the Balance Sheet for the respective plans.

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

(C). Provident fund

i) Provident fund - defined contribution plan

The Company contributes Provident Fund for certain eligible employees to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The amounts debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in this regard during the current year were H29.0 million (31 March 2024: H 25.9 million).

ii) Provident fund - defined benefit plan

The Company also contributes Provident Fund for other employees into a recognised Provident Fund Trust set up for the Company and contributions to the Trust are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss when such amounts are due. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall of income on investments earned by the Trust, if any, with regard to the interest due on contributions as per the rate notified by the Government.

(i) The composition of plan assets are as per the Provident Fund scheme and Act of 1952.

(ii) The excess of the plan assets over the liability for the benefit obligation has not been recognised in the books in line with the principle of prudence.

e). Others

The Company is liable to fund any shortfall in its recognized Provident Fund trust "Alstom T&D India Limited Employee''s Provident Fund Trust” (the Trust), as it is a defined benefit plan. The Trust''s investments include H 199.8 million (both secured and unsecured) in bonds of IL&FS group of entities. There was a default of interest payment by these entities to the Trust during the previous year. Cumulative provision as of 31 March 2025 stands at H 199.8 million (31 March 2024 stands at H 237.7 million) towards expected shortfall in the Provident Fund Trust.

(D) Other information

In respect of other defined contribution plans, the Company has recognized the following amounts in the Statement of Profit and Loss:

(i) Employer''s Contribution to Superannuation Fund H 44.1 million (31 March 2024: H 45.3 million)

(ii) Employer''s Contribution to ESI H 0.4 million (31 March 2024: H 0.4 million)

36: Segment information

41. Earnings/(loss) per share

The calculations of profit attributable to equity shareholders and weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for purposes of basic earnings per share calculation are as follows:

43. Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) vide its notification number G.S.R. 206(E) dated March 24, 2021 (amended from time to time) in reference to the proviso to Rule 3 (1) of the Companies (Accounts) Amendment Rules, 2021, introduced the requirement of only using such accounting software w.e.f April 01, 2023 which has a feature of recording audit trail of each and every transaction, creating an edit log of each change made in the books of account along with the date when such changes were made and ensuring that the audit trail cannot be disabled. The Institute of Chartered Accounts of India ("ICAI”) issued an "Implementation guide on reporting on audit trail under rule 11(g) of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014 (Revised 2024 edition)” in February 2024 relating to feature of recording audit trail.

The Company has identified relevant applications that record financial transactions, along with the primary SAP system to which the aforementioned provision and guidance apply for the year ended March 31, 2025 and which has a feature of recording audit trail (edit log) facility wherein:

- in respect of accounting software (SAP), the audit trail feature was enabled at the application level and operated for all relevant transactions recorded in such software.

- in respect of software operated by a third-party service provider, for maintaining payroll records, based on an independent auditor''s System and Organization controls report which covers the requirements of audit trail, has a feature of recording audit trail (edit log) facility and the same has operated throughout the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the software.

- in respect of software operated by a third-party service provider for maintaining employee database, though application has a feature of recording audit trail (edit log) facility and the same has operated throughout the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the software however testing of audit trails is not covered in an independent auditor''s System and Organisation Controls report

SAP, as primary accounting software, is a highly integrated application and inherently logged all changes made to the books of account transactions and has a feature of recording audit trail of each and every transaction at the application level except that audit trail was not enabled at the database level to log any direct data changes.

Only authorized personnel have access to the underlying database for the purpose of system support after obtaining explicit permission from the Company. The Company has enabled sufficient logs at the database level which captures objects edited along-with timing and personnel identity. Any data changes would undergo inherent checks that are built onto application and any impermissible changes at the database level creates multiple errors like operational failure, corrupting of tables etc. and rule out the possibility of such changes.

There is no instance noted that audit trail feature being tampered at application level during the year.

Additionally, the audit trail that was enabled at application level (SAP) and operated for the year ended March 31, 2024, has been preserved by the Company as per the statutory requirements for record retention.

The Company has established and maintained an adequate internal control framework and based on its assessment, believes that this was effective for the year ended March 31, 2025.

2.2.16 Provisions and contingent liabilities Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows (representing the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date) at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost. Expected future operating losses are not provided for.

Warranty and product related settlements

A provision for warranty and products related settlements is recognised when the underlying products or services are sold. The provision is based on technical evaluation, global experience, historical warranty and product related settlements data and a weighting of all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities.

Onerous contracts

A contract is considered to be onerous when the expected economic benefits to be derived by the Company from the contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision for an onerous contract is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before such a provision is made, the Company recognises any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract

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 occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or 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.

Provision for site restorations costs

The Company has recognized a provision to clean up historically contaminated waste at sites and bear the costs thereof. In estimating the provisions, the Company have estimated costs based on currently available information about the likely extent of contamination and potential clean-up techniques. Due to the associated uncertainty, it is possible that estimates may need to be revised during the next years as the extent of contamination and potential approaches to clean up are assessed in more detail.

Contingent assets

Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, and is recognised as an asset.

2.2.17 Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the other components, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Accordingly, the Company''s activities/business is reviewed regularly by the Company''s Managing Director / Chief Executive Officer assisted by an executive committee from an overall business perspective, rather than reviewing its products/services as individual standalone components.

Based on the dominant source and nature of risks and returns of the Company, management has identified its business segment as its primary reporting format.

2.2.18 Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows.

The timing of outflows is expected over the period specified in various contracts.

Litigations and related matters - Provision for litigation represents estimates made mainly for probable claims arising out of litigations / disputes pending with authorities under various statutes (i.e. Duty of Excise, Service Tax, Value Added Tax, Sales Tax, etc.) and relating to property matters. The timing of outflows is determinable only on receipt of judgment / decisions pending with various forums / authorities.

Provision towards site restoration - Provision for site restoration represents provision for site restoration as per Company''s policy and applicable requirements.

The Company has a process whereby periodically all long term contracts are assessed for material foreseeable losses. At the year end, the Company has reviewed and ensured that adequate provision as required under any law / accounting standards for material foreseeable losses on such long term contracts has been made in the books of account.

c) . Performance obligation

Information about the company''s performance obligations are summarised below:

Execution of long term contract for projects

a) Long term (Construction type) contracts- The long term contracts are ordinarily presumed to consist of combined obligations which are not distinct in the context of the contract (i.e., single performance obligation). This is highly attributed to the longterm construction-nature of the projects, whereby deliverables are typically highly interrelated and combined. The typical scope of long term contracts arrangements includes Engineering, manufacturing, shipment, delivery installation, testing, erection and commissioning and civil works. Although there are several components to the overall scope of the contract, the turnkey contracts are generally considered one performance obligation.

b) Products manufacturing and erection, commissioning and installation contracts- These contracts comprising of one performance obligations of supply of products and erection and commissioning thereof. When the manufacturing stage is complete, factory acceptance testing procedures are performed to ensure the equipment meets customer specifications and may involve the customer physically observing the testing procedures. Revenue from contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and other consideration, is recognized as per the percentage of completion method. The Company uses the percentage of completion method based on the efforts or costs expended to the date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended.

c) The Company as part of its contracts, provides warranties of the equipment for defects arising out of poor workmanship, inferior material or manufacturing. Such warranty provided is in the nature of assurance warranty and is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation (also refer note:18).

d) . Remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue.

The aggregate value of performance obligations that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at 31 March 2024 is in excess of H 62,700 million (31 March 2023: H 36,900 million).The conversion to revenue is highly dependent on meeting the delivery schedules, contractual terms and conditions with customers, availability of customer sites, changes/ variation in scope/ prices etc. In view of these, it is not practical to define the accurate percentage of conversion to revenue.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

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

The following methods and assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values:

- The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with banks. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward contracts (used for hedging purposes) is the net present value technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

34. Financial risk management

The Company’s activities expose it to the following risks arising from the financial instruments- market risk

- liquidity risk

- credit risk.

This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the impact of hedge accounting in the financial statements.

Risk Management Framework

The Company''s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company''s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company''s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

(A). Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

The Company''s exposure to credit risk for trade receivables by related and other than related parties are as follows:

(ii) Provision for expected credit losses

a. Security deposit, contract assets and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances H 231.1 million (31 March 2023: H 462.5 million), management believes the parties to which these deposits have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided for.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable.

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 and delay rates over the expected life of the trade receivable. At year end, the historical observed default and delay rates are updated and analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements, the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn working capital facilities) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities, and net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. 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.

(C) Market risk

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 of interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and other financial liabilities.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company''s policy is to hedge all material firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

(B) Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed four years and one ninety days or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn basic salary including dearness allowance (if any)) for each completed year of service. The plan is funded with an insurance company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

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.

The following tables summarise the components of net employee benefit expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the Balance Sheet for the respective plans.

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 100 basis points.

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

(D). Provident fund

i) Provident fund - defined contribution plan

The Company contributes Provident Fund for certain eligible employees to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The amounts debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in this regard during the current year were H 25.9 million (31 March 2023: H 26.8 million).

ii) Provident fund - defined benefit plan

The Company also contributes Provident Fund for other employees into a recognised Provident Fund Trust set up for the Company and contributions to the Trust are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss when such amounts are due. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall of income on investments earned by the Trust, if any, with regard to the interest due on contributions as per the rate notified by the Government.

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

Notes:

(i) The composition of plan assets are as per the Provident Fund scheme and Act of 1952.

(ii) The excess of the plan assets over the liability for the benefit obligation has not been recognised in the books in line with the principle of prudence.

e). Others

The Company is liable to fund any shortfall in its recognized Provident Fund trust “Alstom T&D India Limited Employee’s Provident Fund Trust” (the Trust), as it is a defined benefit plan. The Trust''s investments include H 237.7 million (both secured and unsecured) in bonds of IL&FS group of entities. There was a default of interest payment by these entities to the Trust during the previous year. Cumulative provision as of 31 March 2024 stands at H 237.7 million towards expected shortfall in the Provident Fund Trust.

(E) Other information

In respect of other defined contribution plans, the Company has recognized the following amounts in the Statement of Profit and Loss:

(i) Employer’s Contribution to Superannuation Fund H 45.3 million (31 March 2023: H 49.8 million)

(ii) Employer’s Contribution to ESI H 0.4 million (31 March 2023: H 0.9 million)

36: Segment information

An operating segment is a component that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company is engaged in the business relating to products, projects and services for electricity transmission and related activities. Accordingly, the Company''s activities/business is reviewed regularly by the Company''s Managing Director / Chief Executive Officer assisted by an executive committee from an overall business perspective, rather than reviewing its products/services as individual standalone components. Thus, the Company has only one operating segment, and has no reportable segments in accordance with Ind AS - 108 ''Operating Segments''.

37. Share based payments

A) Employee share purchase plan (ESPP)

Under the globally designed employee share purchase plan (Plan), all the permanent employees of the Company get an opportunity to buy a stake in the General Electric Co, USA (being the ultimate holding Company). An employee can invest upto a maximum of 25% of their monthly salary (eligible for provident fund) in the shares of General Electric Co, USA. The Company makes a matching contribution of 15% on every purchase made by the employee. All share are bought at market price on the transaction date. The fair value of the share granted under the plan is determined on the basis of market value of the shares on the grant date. During the year, the following numbers of shares were purchased at the below mentioned weighted average fair value:

B) Employees stock options

The employees are entitled to shares of General Electric Co., USA, the ultimate holding company. Details of these plan is given below.

The ultimate holding company (General Electric Co., USA) grant stock options, restricted stock units to employees under the 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan post approval of Board of directors of ultimate holding company. Incentive stock options can be granted only to employees.

As restricted stock units (RSU''s) and stock options have been granted at the fair value of option on the grant date, therefore the Company measure and disclose the employee''s compensation expenses relating to restricted stock option units and stock options using the fair value.

The employees’ compensation expense for stock options and RSU’s during the year ended 31 March 2024 amounts to H 20.4 million (31 March 2023: H 19.8 million) as included under salaries and wages, treated as cash settled during the year. Further, the Ultimate Holding Company will raise charge to the Company for both stock options and RSUs at the time awards are exercised or lapsed by employees.

The options become exercisable over the vesting period (typically three or five years) and expire 10 years from the grant date if not exercised. Restricted stock units (RSU) provide an employee with the right to receive shares of GE stock when the restrictions lapse over the vesting period.

Notes:

1) Pending resolution of the respective proceedings, it is not practicable for the Company to estimate the timing of cash outflows, if any, in respect of the above as it is determinable only on receipt of judgment / decisions pending with various forums / authorities.

2) The Company has reviewed all its pending litigations and proceedings and has adequately provided for where provisions are required and disclosed as contingent liabilities where applicable, in its financial statements. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings to have a material adverse effect on its financial position. The Company does not expect any reimbursements in respect of above contingent liabilities.

3) The Company is directly or indirectly involved in other lawsuits, claims and proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company has challenged these litigations with respective authorities. Based on the facts currently available, management believes that likelihood of outflow of resources is remote and hence the Company has not recognised these litigations under contingent liability as well.

4) Amount mentioned above excludes Excise/Service tax and Sales tax/ VAT liability of H 288.0 million and H 51.8 million related to Service Tax/ Excise and Sales Tax/ VAT related matters respectively pertaining to pre-demerger of Distribution business from erstwhile Company called Areva T&D India Limited and therefore borne by the de-merged entity i.e. Schneider Electric as per approved de-merger agreement.

43. Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) vide its notification number G.S.R. 206(E) dated March 24, 2021 (amended from time to time) in reference to the proviso to Rule 3 (1) of the Companies (Accounts) Amendment Rules, 2021, introduced the requirement of only using such accounting software w.e.f April 01, 2023 which has a feature of recording audit trail of each and every transaction, creating an edit log of each change made in the books of account along with the date when such changes were made and ensuring that the audit trail cannot be disabled. The Institute of Chartered Accounts of India (“ICAI”) issued an “Implementation guide on reporting on audit trail under rule 11(g) of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014 (Revised 2024 edition)” in February 2024 relating to feature of recording audit trail.

The Company has identified relevant applications that record financial transactions, along with the primary SAP system to which the aforementioned provision and guidance apply. Basis the applications identified, the Company has made an assessment that these accounting software have a feature of recording audit trails (edit log) facility which was enabled through the year except the accounting software maintained by the service organization (for payroll records) which did not have the audit trail feature enabled throughout the year.

SAP, as primary accounting software, is a highly integrated application and inherently logged all changes made to the books of account transactions and has a feature of recording audit trail of each and every transaction at the application level except that audit trail was not enabled at the database level to log any direct data changes.

Only authorized personnel have access to the underlying database for the purpose of system support after obtaining explicit permission from the Company. The Company has enabled sufficient logs at the database level which captures objects edited along-with timing and personnel identity. Any data changes would undergo inherent checks that are built onto application and any impermissible changes at the database level creates multiple errors like operational failure, corrupting of tables etc and rule out the possibility of such changes.

There is no instance noted that audit trail feature being tampered at application level during the year.

The Company has established and maintained an adequate internal control framework and based on its assessment, believes that this was effective for the year ended March 31, 2024.

44. During the year Company additionally started to store SAP daily back up on servers physically located in India and daily back up is performed starting March 22, 2024 onwards.

45. During the previous year, to optimize the size of operation for one of its plants, the Company announced an early retirement scheme for eligible employees and accordingly recognized a provision in respect of employees who opted for the scheme of H 72.0 million for the year.

Further, the Company for one of its business initiated the actions to reduce its structural cost by reducing roles in line with the business volumes and accordingly recognized a provision for severance cost of H 41.8 million for the year. This amount is presented as an exceptional item.

An aggregated amount of H 113.8 million is presented as an exceptional item for the year ended 31 March 23.

46. Other statutory information

a. The Company has not traded in Crypto currency or Virtual currency during the financial year.

b. The Company does not have any transaction which is not recorded in the books of accounts and has been surrendered or disclosed as income during the year in tax assessments under the Income Tax Act, 1961 (such as search or survey or any other relevant provision of the Income Tax Act, 1961).

c. The Company does not have any Benami property, where any proceeding has been initiated or pending against the Company.

c) . Performance obligation

Information about the Company''s performance obligations are summarised below:

Execution of long term contract for projects

a) Long term (Construction type) contracts- The long term contracts are ordinarily presumed to consist of combined obligations which are not distinct in the context of the contract (i.e., single performance obligation). This is highly attributed to the long-term construction-nature of the projects, whereby deliverables are typically highly interrelated and combined. The typical scope of long term contracts arrangements includes Engineering, manufacturing, shipment, delivery installation, testing, erection and commissioning and civil works. Although there are several components to the overall scope of the contract, the turnkey contracts are generally considered one performance obligation.

b) Products manufacturing and erection, commissioning and installation contracts- These contracts comprising of one performance obligations of supply of products and erection and commissioning thereof. When the manufacturing stage is complete, factory acceptance testing procedures are performed to ensure the equipment meets customer specifications and may involve the customer physically observing the testing procedures. Revenue from contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and other consideration, is recognized as per the percentage of completion method. The Company uses the percentage of completion method based on the efforts or costs expended to the date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended.

c) The Company as part of its contracts, provides warranties of the equipment for defects arising out of poor workmanship, inferior material or manufacturing. Such warranty provided is in the nature of assurance warranty and is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation.

d) . Remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue.

The aggregate value of performance obligations that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at 31 March 2023 is in excess of H 36,900 million (31 March 2022: H 37,200 million). The conversion to revenue is highly dependent on meeting the delivery schedules, contractual terms and conditions with customers, availability of customer sites, changes/ variation in scope/ prices etc. In view of these, it is not practical to define the accurate percentage of conversion to revenue.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

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

The following methods and assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values:

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with banks. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward contracts (used for hedging purposes) is the net present value technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

Risk Management Framework

The Company''s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company''s risk management framework. The Company''s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company''s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company''s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company''s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company''s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

(ii) Provision for expected credit losses

a. Security deposit, contract assets and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances H 462.5 million (31 March 2022: H 575.1 million), management believes the parties to which these deposits have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided for.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable.

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 and delay rates over the expected life of the trade receivable. At year end, the historical observed default and delay rates are updated and analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

Other financial assets

a) The Company has given security deposits to Government departments for rental deposit for securing services from them. As these are well established organisations and have strong capacity to meet the obligations, risk of default is negligible or nil.

b) All the export benefits (included in other financial assets) are receivable from Government and therefore expected probability of default is negligible or nil.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements, the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn working capital facilities) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

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 of interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and other financial liabilities.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company''s policy is to hedge all material firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

(i) Interest rate risk

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.

(B) Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed four years and one ninety days or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn basic salary including dearness allowance (if any)) for each completed year of service. The plan is funded with an insurance company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

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.

The following tables summarise the components of net employee benefit expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the Balance Sheet for the respective plans.

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

(D). Provident fund

i) Provident fund - defined contribution plan

The management had taken corrective steps to strengthen these procedures.

The above estimates made on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles involve assumptions made by management and are subject to uncertainties/ sensitivities in terms of amount and timing of outflows. Actual amounts of expense/ settlement could be different than the estimates.

Contract losses - Provision for contract losses are based on difference between total estimated revenues and total estimated costs. This is an application of the prudence concept under which anticipated losses are recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss. The timing of outflows is expected over the period specified in various contracts.

c) Performance obligation

Information about the company’s performance obligations are summarised below:

Execution of long term contract for projects

a) Long term (Construction type) contracts- The long term contracts are ordinarily presumed to consist of combined obligations which are not distinct in the context of the contract (i.e., single performance obligation). This is highly attributed to the long-term construction-nature of the projects, whereby deliverables are typically highly interrelated and combined. The typical scope of long term contracts arrangements includes Engineering, manufacturing, shipment, delivery installation, testing, erection and commissioning and civil works. Although there are several components to the overall scope of the contract, the turnkey contracts are generally considered one performance obligation.

b) Products manufacturing and erection, commissioning and installation contracts- These contracts comprising of one performance obligations of supply of products and erection and commissioning thereof. When the manufacturing stage is complete, factory acceptance testing procedures are performed to ensure the equipment meets customer specifications and may involve the customer physically observing the testing procedures. Revenue from contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and other consideration, is recognized as per the percentage of completion method. The Company uses the percentage of completion method based on the efforts or costs expended to the date as a proportion of the total efforts or costs to be expended.

c) The Company as part of its contracts, provides warranties of the equipment for defects arising out of poor workmanship, inferior material or manufacturing. Such warranty provided is in the nature of assurance warranty and is not accounted for as a separate performance obligation.

d) Remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue.

‘The aggregate value of performance obligations that are completely or partially unsatisfied as at 31 March 2022 is in excess of H 37,200 million (31 March 2021 H 45,000 million).The conversion to revenue is highly dependent on meeting the delivery schedules, contractual terms and conditions with customers, availability of customer sites, changes/ variation in scope/ prices etc. In view of these, it is not practical to define the accurate percentage of conversion to revenue.

e) There was no revenue recognised in the current year ended 31 March 2022 from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods due to no significant changes in transaction price.

Note: The Company has spent H 4.5 million during the financial year ended March 31, 2022 as CSR expenditure for the activities specified in the Corporate Social Responsibility Policy of the Company, against the amount prescribed under section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“Act”) and CSR budget of H 2.5 million. Excess spent amount of H 2.0 million is being carried forward to be set-off in next three financial years as per Act read with rules made thereunder.

32. Income tax expense

This note provides an analysis of the Company’s income tax expense, and how the tax expense is affected by non-assessable and non-deductible items. It also explains significant estimates made in relation to the Company’s tax positions.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

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

The following methods and assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values: The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with banks. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward contracts (used for hedging purposes) is the net present value technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

Risk Management Framework

The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company’s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

(ii) Provision for expected credit losses

a. Security deposit, contract assets and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances H 575.1 million (31 March 2021 : H 337.4 million), management believes the parties to which these deposits have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided for.

In respect of Contract assets amounting to H 1,626.3 million (31 March 2021: H 2,650.3 million), the Company recognised H 157.9 million (31 March 2021 H 163.5 million) as provision for expected credit loss on account of delay in receiving the amount from customers.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable.

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 and delay rates over the expected life of the trade receivable. At year end, the historical observed default and delay rates are updated and analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

Other financial assets

a) The Company has given security deposits to Government departments for rental deposit for securing services from them. As these are well established organisations and have strong capacity to meet the obligations, risk of default is negligible or nil.

b) All the export benefits (included in other financial assets) are receivable from Government and therefore expected probability of default is negligible or nil.

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements, the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn working capital facilities) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all non-derivative financial liabilities, and net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. 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.

(C) Market risk

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 of interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and other financial liabilities.

The Company uses derivative to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guideline as prescribed in the Company’s risk management policy.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company’s policy is to hedge all material firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

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.

The following tables summarise the components of net employee benefit expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the Balance Sheet for the respective plans.

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 100 basis points.

(D). Provident fund

i) Provident fund - defined contribution plan

The Company contributes Provident Fund for certain eligible employees to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The amounts debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in this regard during the current year were H 31.1 million (31 March 2021 H 28.2 million).

•Contract asset is a right that is conditioned on something other than the passage of time therefore a contract asset is not a financial instrument. In Company''s contracts with customers, since the contractual right to payment arises only upon achievement of milestones specified in the contract, it is believed that the performance completed until the achievement of a particular milestone should be recorded as a contract asset under non-financial assets. In March 2019, Rs 52.6 million (March 2018: Rs Nil) was recognised as provision for expected credit losses on contract assets.

During the year ended 31 March 2019, Rs 1,440.6 million of contract assets pertaining to the long term contracts as of 1 April 2018 has been reclassified to trade receivables upon billing to customers on completion of milestones.

During the year end 31 March 2019 the company recognise revenue of Rs 5,848.8 million arising from opening deferred income as of 1 April 2018.

This has resulted in lower reported sales in the current year in comparison to the sales reported under the pre-GST structure of indirect taxes. Accordingly, Financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018 and in particular, Sales and ratios in percentage of sales, are not comparable with the figures of the previous year.

* Includes income from unwinding of amortization for retention receivables

** During the year, the Company has transferred its “Global Finance Shared Business” to GE India Industrial Private Limited, a GE group company, together with the assets and manpower comprised therein on a ‘slump sale’ basis at a consideration of H65 million, resulting in a gain on such sale of H60.7 million. The said business was non-core business activity for the Company providing accounting services of transactional nature to various General Electric group companies both in India and outside India.

# Includes gain on mark to market of derivative financial instrument amounting to H232.1 million.

* Includes H304.2 million (March 31, 2017 H27 million) (net of reversals) on account of provision for slow moving items / obsolescence made during the year.

* The Company has not disclosed the fair values for financial instruments such as trade receivables, cash and bank balances, loans, unbilled receivables and others and investments, because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair value.

# The Company has not disclosed the fair value for financial instruments such as borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities, because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair value.

3: Financial instruments and fair value measurements (contd..)

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

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

The following methods and assumptions have been used to estimate the fair values:

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with banks. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of forward contracts (used for hedging purposes) is the net present value technique which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the forward contracts at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and current exchange rates.

4: Financial risk management

The Company’s activities expose it to the following risks arising from the financial instruments

- market risk

- liquidity risk

- credit risk.

This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the impact of hedge accounting in the financial statements.

Risk Management Framework

The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company’s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

5: Financial risk management (contd.. )

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.

In general, it is presumed that credit risk has increased since initial recognition if the payments are more than 90 days past due. A default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 90 days of when they fall due. This definition of default is determined by considering the business environment in which entity operates and other macro-economic factors.

(ii) Provision for expected credit loss

a. Security deposit and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances amounting to RS, 2,339.5 million (March 31, 2017 : RS, 1,746.7 million) the management believes these to be high quality assets with negligible credit risk. The management believes the parties to which these deposits and other advances have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided on these financial assets.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss (ECL) for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas.

The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable. Under the simplified approach, the Company does not track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizes impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from 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 and delay rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward looking estimates. At year end, the historical observed default and delay rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

(B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Financing arrangements

The Company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

The bank overdraft facilities may be drawn at any time and may be terminated by the bank without notice.

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all no derivative financial liabilities, and net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. 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.

(C) Market risk

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 of interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables, trade payables and other financials liabilities.

The Company uses derivative to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guideline as prescribed in the Company’s risk management policy.

(i) Foreign currency risk

The Company’s policy is to hedge all firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

6. Provision for employee benefits

(A) Liability for compensated absences

The liability for compensated absences cover the Company’s liability for Privilege Leave (as per Company Policy). The amount of the provision of H 79.7 million (March 31, 2017 - H 40.7 million) is presented as current, since the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Company does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next twelve months. The following amounts reflect leave that is not expected to be taken or paid within the next twelve months.

(B) Long term incentive plans

Out of the two erstwhile incentive plans namely ‘Deferred Incentive Plan’ and ‘Critical Skill Retainer Scheme’ for different categories of managerial employees to retain and attract experienced talent, the liability of Deferred Incentive Plan has been discharged in the year 2017-18. The final amounts payable to employees, under Critical Skill Retainer Scheme is expected to be paid by the year 2018-19 and liability against this scheme has been treated as short term incentive plan in the current year.

(C) Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn salary) for each completed year of service. The plan is funded with an insurance company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The above defined benefit plan exposes the Company to following risks:

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

7. Provision for employee benefits (contd.. )

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.

The following tables summaries the components of net employee benefit expense recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognized in the Balance Sheet for the respective plans.

*During the current year 2017-18, the Company has transferred its “Global Finance Shared Business” to GE India Industrial Private Limited, a GE group company, together with the assets and manpower comprised therein on a ‘slump sale’ basis.

The overall expected rate of return on assets is determined based on the market prices prevailing on that date, applicable to the period over which the obligation is to be settled.

Future mortality rate is based on published rates under the Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08) Ult table.

The estimates of future salary increases, considered in actuarial valuation, take account of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.

The employees of the Company are assumed to retire at the age of 60 years.

The expected contribution payable to the plan next year is H50.0 million (March 31, 2017: H50 million)

Projected plan cash flow

The table below shows the expected cash flow profile of the benefits to be paid to the current membership of the plan based on past service of the employees as at the valuation date :

The weighted average duration to the payment of these cash flow is 7.62 years (March 31, 2017 : 9.64 years).

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 100 basis points (50 basis points in respect of March 31, 2017)

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

i) Provident fund - defined contribution plan

The Company contributes Provident Fund for certain eligible employees to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The amounts debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in this regard during the current year were RS,25.5 million (March 31, 2017 - RS,22.7 million).

ii) Provident fund - defined benefit plan

The Company also contributes Provident Fund for other employees into a recognized Provident Fund Trust set up for the Company and contributions to the Trust are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss when such amounts are due. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall of income on investments earned by the Trust, if any, with regard to the interest due on contributions as per the rate notified by the Government.

d). Sensitivity analysis

The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit obligation (DBO) at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 50 basis points.

These sensitivities, as per the information available and disclosed by the Company, have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous year in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analyses.

Notes:

(i) The composition of plan assets are as per the Provident Fund scheme and Act of 1952.

(ii) The excess of the plan assets over the liability for the benefit obligation has not been recognized in the books in line with the principle of prudence.

(E) Others

In respect of other defined contribution plans, the Company has recognized the following amounts in the Statement of Profit and Loss:

(i) Employer’s Contribution to Superannuation Fund RS,.73.4 million (March 31, 2017 RS, 79.7 million)

(ii) Employer’s Contribution to ESI RS, 1.6 million (March 31, 2017 RS, 1.2 million)

8: Segment information

An operating segment is a component that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company is engaged in the business relating to products, projects and services for electricity transmission and related activities. Accordingly, the Company’s activities/business is reviewed regularly by the Company’s Managing Director assisted by an executive committee from an overall business perspective, rather than reviewing its products/services as individual standalone components. Thus, the Company has only one operating segment, and has no reportable segments in accordance with Ind AS - 108 ‘Operating Segments’.

** Non-current assets exclude financial instruments and deferred tax assets.

9. Share based Payments

As per the amended rules, the proposed dividend after the reporting date but before the financial statements are approved for issue, will not be recognised as a liability at the reporting date (amended Accounting Standard 4 - Contingencies and Events Occurring After the Balance Sheet Date). Additionally, as per General Circular No. 04/2016 dated 27 April 2016 issued by MCA, the amended rules should be used for preparation of the financial statements for accounting periods commencing on or after 30 March 2016.

Accordingly, the Company has not recorded Rs. 460.9 million as liability for proposed dividends (for the year ended 31 March 2017) (plus corporate dividend tax) as at 31 March 2017.

4. Provisions

(i) Information about individual provisions and significant estimates

Warranty- Warranty costs are estimated on the basis of contractual agreement, technical evaluation, past experience and global experiences. The timing of outflows is expected to be as per warranty periods as specified in various contracts.

Contract losses- Provision for contract losses are based on difference between total estimated revenues and total estimated costs. This is an application of the prudence concept under which anticipated losses are recognized immediately in the income statement. The timing of outflows is expected over the period specified in various contracts.

Tax litigation - Provision for tax litigation represents estimates made mainly for probable claims arising out of litigations / disputes pending with authorities under various statutes (i.e. Duty of Excise, Service Tax, Value Added Tax, Sales Tax, etc.). The timing of outflows is determinable only on receipt of judgment / decisions pending with various forums / authorities.

(ii) Movements in provisions

Movements in each class of provision during the financial year, are set out below:

5: First-time adoption of Ind AS Explanation of transition to Ind AS

These are Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

The accounting policies set out in note 2 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet on the date of transition i.e. 1 April 2015 (the Company’s date of transition). In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the Company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and other relevant provisions of the Act (previous GAAP or Indian GAAP). This note explains the principal adjustments made by the Company in restating its financial statements prepared in accordance with previous GAAP, and an explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected the company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

A. Exemptions and exceptions availed

Set out below are the applicable Ind AS 101 optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions applied in the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS.

A.1 Ind AS optional exemptions A.1.1 Business Combinations

As per Ind AS 101, at the date of transition, the Company may elect not to restate business combinations that occurred before the date of transition. If the Company reinstates any business combinations that occurred before the date of transition, then it restates all later business combinations from that same date. The Company has opted to restate all the business combinations prospectively occurring from the transition date.

A.1.2 Property, plant and equipment

Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition after making necessary adjustments for de-commissioning liabilities. Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment at their previous GAAP carrying value.

A.1.3 Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease

Ind AS 101 includes an optional exemption that permits an entity to apply the relevant requirements in Appendix C of Ind AS 17 for determining whether an arrangement existing at the date of transition contains a lease by considering the facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition (rather than at the inception of the arrangement)

The Company has elected to avail of the above exemption.

A.2 Ind AS mandatory exceptions A.2.1 Estimates

An entity’s estimates in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition to Ind AS are consistent with estimates made for the same date in accordance with previous GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any difference in accounting policies), unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error.

Ind AS estimates as at 1 April 2015 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP. The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under previous GAAP:

- Impairment of financial assets based on expected credit loss model.

- Determination of discounted value for financial instruments carried at amortised cost.

A.2.2 De-recognition of financial assets and liabilities

Ind AS 101 requires a first-time adopter to apply the de-recognition provisions of Ind AS 109 prospectively for transactions occurring on or after the date of transaction to Ind AS. However, Ind AS 101 allows a first time adopter to apply the de-recognition requirements in Ind AS 109 retrospectively from the date of the entity’s choosing, provided that the information needed to apply Ind AS 109 to financials assets and liabilities derecognised as a result of past transaction was obtained at the time of initially accounting for those transactions.

The Company has elected to apply the de-recognition provisions of Ind AS 109 prospectively from the date of transition to Ind AS.

A.2.3 Classification and measurement of financial assets

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to assess classification of financial assets on the basis of facts and circumstances existing as on date of transition. Further, the standard permits measurement of financial assets accounted at amortised cost based on facts and circumstances existing at the date of transition if retrospective application is impracticable.

Accordingly, the Company has determined the classification of financial assets based on facts and circumstances that exist on the date of transition. Measurement of the financial assets accounted at amortised cost has been done retrospectively except where the same is impracticable.

B: Reconciliations between previous GAAP and Ind AS

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to reconcile equity, total comprehensive income and cash flows for prior periods. The following tables represent the reconciliations from previous GAAP to Ind AS.

Explanations for reconciliation of above items as previously reported under previous GAAP to Ind AS I. Fair valuation of revenue

Under previous GAAP, contract revenue was recorded at transaction price. Under Ind AS 11, contract revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. A portion of revenue is retained by the customer (retention money) at the time of making the payment, which is released by the customer at the end of the Project. Therefore, the arrangement effectively constitutes a financing transaction as the customer makes the payment on deferred settlement terms. Contractual maturity represents the expected date of collection of retention money. Accordingly, the Company discounts the related retention money over the contractual maturity period to reduced revenue, which is recognised as finance income over the contractual maturity period.

II. Expected credit loss

On transition to Ind AS, the Company has recognised impairment loss on trade receivables measured at amortised cost based on the expected credit loss model as required by Ind AS 109. Consequently, trade receivables measured at amortised cost have been reduced with a corresponding decrease in retained earnings on the date of transition and there has been an incremental provision for the year ended 31 March 2016.

III. Discounting at amortised cost

Based on Ind AS 109, assets in form of security deposit (that are refundable in cash), earnest money deposit and liabilities in form of retention payables and provisions in form of warranty, contract loss have been accounted at amortised cost using the effective rate method.

A. Loans (Security deposit)

The impact arising from the change is summarised as follows:

B. Other current assets (Earnest money deposit) The impact arising from the change is summarised as follows:

C. Trade Payables

As per Ind AS 109, the company applies the fair valuation principles on the retention payables due to its vendors. At the time of initial recognition, these liabilities are recognised at fair value. Subsequently, these are measured at amortised cost.

D. Non Current Provisions

Under Ind AS, provisions are measured at discounted amounts, if the effect of time value is material. Accordingly, non current provisions comprising of long term warranty and contract loss have been discounted to their present values.

IV. Mark to market of hedging instruments Other financial liabilities

Under Ind AS 109, it is required to de-recognise the unamortized premium at the opening balance sheet date and going forward it is required to account for the Mark To Market (MTM) gains as well, which were previously ignored.

V. Proposed dividend and tax thereon

Under the previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the board of directors after the reporting date but before the approval of the financial statements were considered to be adjusting events and accordingly recognised (along with related dividend distribution tax) as liabilities at the reporting date. Accordingly, provision for proposed dividend and dividend distribution tax recognised under previous GAAP has been reversed and recorded in the period in which it has been approved by the shareholders.

VI. Remeasurements of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, remeasurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets, excluding amount included in the net interest expenses on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit and loss. Under the previous GAAP, these measurement were forming part of statement of profit and loss for the year.

VIII: Excise duty

Under previous GAAP, revenue from sale of goods was presented net of excise duty on sales. Under Ind AS the revenue from sale of goods is presented inclusive of excise duty. Excise duty is presented in the statement of profit and loss as an expense. This has resulted in an increase in revenue from operation and expenses for the year ended 31 March 2016. The total comprehensive income for the year ended and equity as at 31 March 2016 has remained unchanged.

X. Deferred Tax Assets

Under previous GAAP, tax expense in the financial statements was computed by performing line by line addition of tax expense. Under Ind AS, deferred taxes are also recognised on undistributed profits. Deferred tax are recognised on the adjustments made on transition to the Ind AS.

6: Financial instruments and fair value measurements- accounting classification A. Accounting classifications and fair values

The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy.

(i) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgments 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.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

When the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in the active markets, their fair value is measured using a valuation techniques including the estimated present value technique. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. Judgments include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

7: Financial risk management

The company’s activities expose it to the following risks asrising from the financial instruments-market risk liquidity risk credit risk.

This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the impact of hedge accounting in the financial statements

Risk Management Framework

The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. The board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity. The Company’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury team department under policies approved by the board of directors.

The Company’s audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with Company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risk faced by the Company.

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial asset fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers, loans and other deposits etc.

The carrying amounts of financial assets represent the maximum credit risk exposure.

(i) Credit risk management

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of an asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period on annual basis. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forward looking information.

In general, it is presumed that credit risk has increased since initial recognition if the payments are more than 90 days past due.

A default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 90 days of when they fall due. This definition of default is determined by considering the business environment in which entity operates and other macro-economic factors.

Provision for expected credit loss

a. Security deposit and other advances

With regards to security deposit and other advances amounting to Rs. 1,746.7 million (31 March 2016 : Rs. 2,671.5 million; 1 April 2015 : Rs. 4,525 million) the management believes these to be high quality assets with negligible credit risk. The management believes the parties to which these deposits and other advances have been made have strong capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is negligible or nil and accordingly no provision for excepted credit loss has been provided on these financial assets.

b. Trade receivables (Expected credit loss for trade receivables under simplified approach)

Trade receivables consists of a large number of customers spread across diverse industries and geographical areas.

The Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivable. Under the simplified approach, the Company does not track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizes impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from 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 year end, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount of trade receivable and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within other expenses.

(B) liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Considering the business requirements the treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Financing arrangements

The company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

(ii) Maturities of financial liabilities

The tables below analyse the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for all nonderivative financial liabilities, and net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for an understanding of the timing of the cash flows. 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.

(C) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices- such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices- will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instrument. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters while optimising the return.

The Company uses derivative to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guideline as prescribed in the Company’s risk management policy.

(i) Foreign currency risk

Company’s policy is to hedge all firm currency exposure at inception to the extent possible. However, for individual transactions exceeding a value equivalent to Rs 6.9 million or all transactions for a project wherein the aggregate of the exposures exceeding a value equivalent to Rs 6.9 million, currency hedging is recommendatory. Individual foreign currency exposures and the hedges obtained against these individual exposures are reported and monitored.

8. Provision for employee benefits

(A) Liability for compensated absences

The liability for compensated absences cover the Company’s liability for Privilege Leave and Sick Leave (as per Company Policy). The amount of the provision of Rs. 40.7 million (31 March 2016 - Rs. 37.6 million, 1 April 2015 - Rs. 33.1 million) is presented as current, since the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Company does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next twelve months. The following amounts reflect leave that is not expected to be taken or paid within the next twelve months.

(B) Long Term Incentive plans

The Company has two incentive plans namely ‘Deferred Incentive Plan’ and ‘Critical Skill Retainer Scheme’ for different categories of managerial employees to retain and attract experienced talent. Under these plans, employees will receive certain annual grants, which will be paid over a pre-determined future periods. Each pay-out is independently amortised over a period from grant date to final pay-out date. Since the Deferred Incentive Plan is withdrawn / foreclosed, the entire liability will be discharged in 2017 accordingly this plan will be treated as short term incentive plan in the current year.

In respect of ‘Critical Skill Retainer Scheme’, the Company’s liability is actuarially determined (using the projected unit credit method) at the end of each year. Actuarial gains and losses arising from effects of changes in actuarial valuations are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they arise.

(C) Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn salary) for each completed year of service. The plan is funded with an insurance company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy.

The following tables summarise the components of net employee benefit expense recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the respective plans.

Future mortality rate is based on published rates under the Indian Assured Lives Mortality (2006-08) Ult table.

The estimates of future salary increases, considered in actuarial valuation, take account of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.

The employees of the Company are assumed to retire at the age of 60 years.

The expected contribution payable to the plan next year is Rs 50.0 million (31 March 2016: Rs 99.2 million; 1 April 2015: Rs 76.0 million)

Projected plan cash flow

The table below shows the expected cash flow profile of the benefits to be paid to the current membership of the plan based on past service of the employees as at the valuation date :

vii). Sensitivity analysis

Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to small changes in demographic assumptions. The key actuarial assumptions to which the benefit obligation results are particularly sensitive to are discount rate and future salary escalation rate.

The following table summarizes the impact in percentage terms on the reported defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period arising on account of an increase or decrease in the reported assumption by 50 basis points.

These sensitivities have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the accounting date. There have been no changes from the previous periods in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis.

(D). Provident Fund

i) Provident Fund - defined contribution plan

The Company contributes Provident Fund for certain eligible employees to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The amounts debited to the Statement of Profit and Loss in this regard during the current year were Rs. 22.7 million (Previous year - Rs. 21.8 million).

ii) Provident Fund - defined benefit plan

The Company also contributes Provident Fund for other employees into a recognised Provident Fund Trust set up for the Company and contributions to the Trust are expensed to the Statement of Profit and Loss when such amounts are due. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall of income on investments earned by the Trust, if any, with regard to the interest due on contributions as per the rate notified by the Government.

9. Segment information

An operating segment is a component that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company is engaged in the business relating to products, projects and services for electricity transmission and related activities. Accordingly, the Company’s activities/business is reviewed regularly by the Company’s Managing Director assisted by an executive committee from an overall business perspective, rather than reviewing its products/services as individual standalone components. Thus, the Company has only one operating segment, and no reportable segments in accordance with Ind AS - 108 ‘Operating Segments’.

10. Share based Payments

The employees of the Company are entitled to the shares of General Electric Company, United States (ultimate holding company) and ALSTOM, France (erstwhile ultimate holding company) under an equity-settled share-based compensation plan. The share based payments expense disclosed under employee benefits expense is not material hence the required disclosures has not been provided.

11. Specified Bank Notes

As per the notification issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs dated 30 March 2017, amended the Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013 under which Company shall require to disclose the details of ‘Specified Bank Notes’ held and transacted during the period from 08 November 2016 to 30 December 2016.

12. The Company has a process whereby periodically all long term contracts (including derivative contracts) are assessed for material foreseeable losses. At the year end, the Company has reviewed and ensured that adequate provision as required under any law / accounting standards for material foreseeable losses on such long term contracts (including derivative contracts) has been made in the books of account.

13. The Company’s significant leasing arrangements are primarily in respect of operating leases for premises (office, residential, warehouses etc.) and vehicles. The aggregate lease rentals charged to the statement of Profit and Loss are Rs. 124.7 million (2015-16 Rs. 121.9 million).

8. INCOME TAX

a. The company in an earlier year was constrained not to make investment in capital gains bonds in respect of the capital gains that arose on disposal of non T&D business because of the notification dated December 22, 2006 issued by the Central Government capping the investment in capital gains bonds at Rs 5,000 thousand. Hence the company had challenged by way of a writ petition in the Madras High Court the said notification. This writ was dismissed by the High Court as infructuous, since the notification under challenge was legalised by the Finance Act 2007 through a retrospective amendment to Sec 54EC of the Income Tax Act 1961. Against this decision of Madras High Court the company preferred a special leave petition before the Supreme Court of India which was also dismissed. Consequently the company has now filed a fresh writ petition before the Madras High Court challenging the constitutional validity of the retrospective amendment to Section 54EC itself. The said writ is admitted and pending disposal.

b. The company has estimated Rs 42,256 thousand of potential income tax risk relating to certain disallowances and consequential interest relating to various assessment years.
