A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation (Legal or Constructive) as a result of
past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation in respect
of which a reliable estimate can be made.
Contingent liabilities are not recognized but disclosed in Notes when the Company has possible obligation
due to past events and existence of the obligation depends upon occurrence or non- occurrence of future
events not wholly within the control of the Company and Present obligations arising from past events where
it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate
of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
Contingent liabilities are assessed continuously to determine whether outflow of Economic resources have
become probable. If the outflow becomes probable, then relative provision is recognized in the financial
statements.
(xiv) Contingent Assets
Contingent Assets are not recognized but disclosed in Notes which usually arise from unplanned or other
unexpected events that give rise to the possibility of an inflow of economic benefits.
Contingent assets are assessed continuously to determine whether inflow of economic benefits becomes
virtually certain, then such assets and the relative income will be recognised in the financial statements.
(xv) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision maker. The Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of the Company have been identified
as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
(xvi) Material prior period errors
Material prior period errors are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior
periods presented in which the error occurred. If the error occurred before the earliest period presented,
the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest period presented, are restated unless
it is impracticable, in which case, the comparative information is adjusted to apply the accounting policy
prospectively from the earliest date practicable.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax''
as reported in the statement of profit and loss /other comprehensive income because of items of income
or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The
Company''s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the reporting period.
Current tax is recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax is also
recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax arises from
the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business
combination.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purpose.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits
will be available against which the assets can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is
reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the
related tax benefit will be realized.
Current and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items
that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and
deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
(xviii) Investment Property
Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including
property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost,
including import duties, non-refundable taxes, after deducting trade discounts & rebates, borrowing cost
if capitalization criteria are met and any cost directly attributable in bringing the asset to the location and
condition necessary for it to be ready for its intended use.
After initial recognition, the Company measures investment property by using cost model.
An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently
withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss
arising on de recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds
and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which
the property is derecognized.
Investment properties are depreciated in accordance to the class of asset that it belongs and the life of the
asset shall be as conceived for the same class of asset at the Company.
Though investment property is measured using cost model, the fair value of investment property is disclosed
in the notes.
(xix) Employee Benefits
a) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits including salaries, short term compensated absences (such as a paid annual
leave) where the absences are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which
the employees render the related service, profit sharing and bonuses payable within twelve months after
the end of the period in which the employees render the related services and non-monetary benefits for
current employees are estimated and measured on an undiscounted basis.
b) Post-employment benefit plans are classified into defined benefits plans and defined contribution
plans as under:
(i) Defined contribution plan
A defined contribution plan is a plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions in respect of the
employees into a separate fund. The Company has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further
contributions after its payment of the fixed contribution. The contributions made by the Company towards
defined contribution plans are charged to the statement of profit and loss in the period to which the
contributions relate.
(ii) Defined benefit plan
The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, Post-Retirement Medical Benefit (PRMB) and Other
Defined Retirement Benefit (ODRB) which are being considered as defined benefit plans covering eligible
employees. Under the defined benefit plans, the amount that an employee will receive on retirement is
defined by reference to the employee''s length of service, final salary, and other defined parameters. The
legal obligation for any benefits remains with the Company, even if plan assets for funding the defined
benefit plan have been set aside.
The Company''s obligation towards defined benefit plans is determined using the projected unit credit
method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. The liability
recognized in the statement of financial position for defined benefit plans is the present value of the Defined
Benefit Obligation (DBO) at the reporting date less the fair value of plan assets. Management estimates the
DBO annually with the assistance of independent actuaries.
The liability for retirement benefits of employees in respect of provident fund, benevolent fund,
superannuation fund and Gratuity is funded with separate trusts.
The Company''s contribution to Provident Fund / Superannuation Fund is remitted to separate trusts
established for this purpose based on a fixed percentage of the eligible employee''s salary and debited to
Statement of Profit and Loss.
c) Other long-term employee benefits:
Liability in respect of compensated absences becoming due or expected to be availed more than one- year
after the balance sheet date is estimated on the basis of actuarial valuation performed by an independent
actuary using the projected unit credit method.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from past experience and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged
to statement of profit and loss in the period in which such gains or losses are determined.
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the financial instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transactions costs,
except for those carried at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequent measurement of financial assets
and financial liabilities is described below.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into the following categories
upon initial recognition:
⢠Amortized cost
⢠Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
⢠Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
All financial assets except for those at FVTPL or equity instruments at FVOCI are subject to review for
impairment at least at each reporting date to identify whether there is any objective evidence that a financial
asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied to
each category of financial assets, which are described below.
Loans (financial asset) are measured at amortized cost using Effective Interest Rate (EIR) if both of the
following conditions are met:
a) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets to
collect contractual cash flows; and
b) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A loss allowance for expected credit losses is recognized on financial assets carried at amortized cost.
? Financial assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets at FVTPL include all derivative financial instruments except for those designated and
effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements are being applied. Assets in
this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market transactions
or using a valuation technique where no active market exists.
Financial assets at FVOCI comprise of equity instruments measured at fair value. An equity investment
classified as FVOCI is initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognized
in other comprehensive income and reported within the FVOCI reserve within equity, except for dividend
income, which is recognized in profit or loss. There is no recycling of such gains and losses from OCI to
Statement of Profit & Loss, even on the derecognition of the investment. However, the Company may
transfer the same within equity.
De-recognition of financial assets
Financial assets (or where applicable, a part of financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets)
are derecognized (i.e., removed from the Company''s balance sheet) when the contractual rights to receive
the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or when the financial asset and substantially all
the risks and rewards are transferred. The Company also derecognizes the financial asset if it has both
transferred the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method,
except for derivative financial liabilities which are carried at FVTPL, subsequently at fair value with gains
or losses recognized in the statement of profit and loss. (FVTPL). All host contracts which are in nature
of a financial liability and separated from embedded derivative are measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest method.
De-recognition of financial liabilities
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or
expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially
different terms or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or
modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.
The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
Derivative financial instruments
The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets and liabilities. The
Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following established risk management
policies including the use of derivatives.
The Company use Derivative instrument includes principal swap, Cross Currency & Interest Rate Swap
(CCIRS), forwards, interest rate swaps, currency and cross currency options, structured product, etc. to
hedge foreign currency assets and liabilities.
Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value (MTM). Attributable transaction costs are recognized
in statement of profit and loss as cost.
De-recognition of Financial asset:
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial assets
expires or transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset.
Hedge Accounting
Derivative financial instruments are accounted for at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) except for
derivatives designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge relationships, which require a specific
accounting treatment. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must meet all of the
following requirements:
- there is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument
- the effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship
- the hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the
hedged item that the entity actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity
actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item.
The Company has designated mostly derivative contracts as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge
relationships. These arrangements have been entered into to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk and
interest rate risk arising against which debt instruments denominated in foreign currency.
⢠Cash Flow hedging is done to protect cash flow positions of the Company from changes in
exchange rate fluctuations and to bring variability in cash flow to fixed ones.
⢠The Company enters into hedging instruments in accordance with policies as approved by the
Board of Directors; provide written principles which are consistent with the risk management
strategy/policies of the Company.
⢠All derivative financial instruments used for hedge accounting are recognised initially at fair
value and reported subsequently at fair value in the balance sheet.
The hedge instruments are designated and documented as hedges at the inception of the contract. The
effectiveness of hedge instruments is assessed and measured at inception and on an on-going basis. The
effective portion of change in the fair value as assessed based on MTM valuation provided by respective
banks/third party valuation of the designated hedging instrument is recognized in the "Other Comprehensive
Income" as "Cash Flow Hedge Reserve". The ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the Statement
of Profit and Loss as and when occurs.
At the time the hedged item affects profit or loss, any gain or loss previously recognised in other
comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented as a reclassification
adjustment within other comprehensive income.
If the hedging relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting
is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or sold, terminated or exercised, the
cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in Cash Flow Hedge Reserve remains in
Cash Flow Hedge Reserve till the period the hedge was effective. The cumulative gain or loss previously
recognized in the Cash Flow Hedge Reserve is transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss upon the
occurrence of the underlying transaction.
Impairment of financial assets
? Loan assets
The Company follows a ''three-stage'' model for impairment of loan asset carried at amortized cost based on
changes in credit quality since initial recognition as summarized below:
⢠Stage 1 includes loan assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial
recognition or that has low credit risk at the reporting date.
⢠Stage 2 includes loan assets that have had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition
but that do not have objective evidence of impairment.
⢠Stage 3 includes loan assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.
The Expected Credit Loss (ECL) is measured at 12-month ECL for Stage 1 loan assets and lifetime ECL for
Stage 2 and Stage 3 loan assets. ECL is the product of the Probability of Default, Exposure at Default and
Loss Given Default, defined as follows:
Probability of Default (PD) - The PD represents the likelihood of a borrower defaulting on its financial
obligation, either over the next 12 months (12 months PD), or over the remaining lifetime (Lifetime PD) of
the obligation.
Loss Given Default iLGDl - LGD represents the Company''s expectation of the extent of loss on a defaulted
exposure. LGD varies by type of counterparty, type, and preference of claim and availability of collateral or
other credit support.
Exposure at Default [EADl - EAD is based on the amount of outstanding exposure as on the assessment date
on which ECL is computed.
Forward-looking economic information is included in determining the 12-month and lifetime PD, EAD and
LGD. The assumptions underlying the expected credit loss are monitored and reviewed on an on-going
basis.
⢠Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, finance
lease receivables, employee and other advances.
⢠Financial liabilities include borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables.
Non derivative financial instruments other than loans are recognized initially at fair value including any
directly attributable transaction costs. Financial assets are derecognized when substantial risks and
rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred. In cases where substantial risks and
rewards of ownership of the financial assets are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets are
derecognized only when the Company has not retained control over the financial asset.
Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured as prescribed below:
a) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, at bank,
demand deposits with banks, cash credit, fixed deposits and foreign currency deposits, net of outstanding
bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Company''s cash management
system. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings.
b) Trade Receivable
The Company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade
receivables. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in
credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date,
right from its initial recognition. The Company determines impairment loss allowance based on individual
assessment of receivables, historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables
and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates.
c) Other payables
Other payables are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the
effective interest method. For these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due
to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Proposed dividends and interim dividends payable to the shareholders are recognized as changes in
equity in the period in which they are approved by the Board of Directors and in the shareholders'' meeting
respectively.
The Company measures financial instruments, such as derivatives at fair value at each reporting date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based
on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
⢠In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
⢠In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The
principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would
use when pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, assuming that market participants
act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a
market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or
by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient
data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing
the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are
categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
⢠Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
⢠Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is directly or indirectly observable
⢠Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements regularly, the Company determines
whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based
on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each
reporting period.
(xxiii) Revenue Recognition
Interest income is accounted on all financial assets (except Company is not recognizing interest income
on credit impaired financial assets) measured at amortized cost. Interest income is recognized using the
Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method in line with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments. The Effective Interest
Rate (EIR) is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through expected life of the
financial asset to that asset''s net carrying amount on initial recognition. The EIR is calculated by taking
into account transactions costs and fees that are an integral part of the EIR in line with Ind AS 109. Interest
income on credit impaired assets is recognized on receipt basis.
Rebate on account of timely payment of interest by borrowers is recognized on receipt of the entire interest
amount due in time, in accordance with the terms of the respective contract and is netted against the
corresponding interest income.
Unless otherwise specified, the recoveries from the borrowers are appropriated in the order of (i) incidental
charges (ii) penal interest (iii) overdue interest and (iv) repayment of principal; the oldest being adjusted
first. The recovery under One Time Settlement (OTS)/ Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) proceedings
is appropriated first towards the principal outstanding and remaining recovery thereafter, towards interest
and other charges, if any.
⢠Revenue (other than for those items to which Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments are applicable) are
recognised as per Ind AS 115 - Revenue from contracts with customers outlines a single comprehensive
model of accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company recognizes
revenue from contracts with customers based on the principle laid down in Ind AS 115 - Revenue from
contracts with customers.
⢠Revenue from contract with customers is recognized to the extent it is probable that the economic
benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue and costs, if applicable, can be measured reliably.
Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the Contract. Transaction Price excludes
amounts collected on behalf of third parties (e.g., taxes collected on behalf of government) and
includes/adjusted for variable consideration like rebates, discounts, only to the extent that it is highly
probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur
when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.
? Revenue from solar plant
Income from solar plant is recognised when the performance obligation are satisfied over time. Rebate
given is disclosed as a deduction from the amount of gross revenue.
? Revenue from Fees and Commission
⢠Revenue from Fee & Commission
Fees and commission are recognised on a point in time basis when probability of collecting such fees is
established.
⢠Revenue from Implementation of Government Schemes & Projects
The Company besides its own activities also acts as implementing agency on behalf of various Government /
Non-Government Organizations on the basis of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) entered into between
the Company and such organization. The details of such activities are disclosed by the way of Notes to the
Financial Statements.
Wherever any funds are received under trust on the basis of such MoUs entered, the same is not included in
Cash and Cash Equivalents and any income including interest income generated out of such funds belonging
to such organizations is not accounted as revenue of the Company.
Service charges earned from such schemes implemented by the Company are recognised at a point in time
basis when certainty of collecting such service charges is established.
(xxiv) Expense
Expenses are accounted for on accrual basis. Prepaid expenses upto '' 5,00,000/- per item are charged to
Statement of Profit & Loss as and when incurred/adjusted/received.
(xxv) Expenditure on issue of shares
Expenditure on issue of shares, if any, is charged to the securities premium account.
****
i) Foreign currency borrowings from various multilateral / bilateral agencies viz. ADB, World Bank , KfW, AFD, JICA and EIB have
been converted into rupee and hedging of the same is done by undertaking plain vanilla swap transaction /currency interest rate
swap / principal only swap/forward contracts etc. with various banks with whom Company has signed International Swaps and
Derivative Association (ISDA) Master Agreement. These derivative transactions have been entered into with the participating
bank for a maturity period which may be shorter than the maturity period of the loan. The hedging of the foreign currency loan
has been carried out at various intervals and in multiple Tranches based on the drawl under the lines of credit and also rollover.
In addition to the interest cost and other financial charges, due to hedging of foreign currency loans, these loans carry hedging/
derivative cost, which is Tranche wise as per the drawl under the line of credit, thus the applicable rate of interest on these lines
of credit has not been disclosed above.

Accordingly, a sum of '' 41.26 Crores has been provided for the year ended 31.03.2025 (previous year : '' 45.03
Crores].
General Reserve is used from time to time to transfer profits from retained earnings for appropriation
purposes, as the same is created by transfer from one component of equity to another.
Foreign Currency Monetary Item Translation Difference Account represents unamortized foreign exchange
gain/loss on Long-term Foreign Currency Borrowings that are amortized over the tenure of the respective
borrowings. The Company has adopted exemption of para D13AA of I nd AS 101, according to which a first-time
adopter may continue the policy adopted for accounting for exchange differences arising from translation
of long-term foreign currency monetary items recognized in the financial statements for the year ending
immediately before the beginning of the first Ind AS financial year as per the previous GAAP. Accordingly, all
transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction.
The exchange differences arising on reporting of long-term foreign currency monetary items outstanding
as on March 31,2018, at rate prevailing at the end of each year, different from those at which they were
initially recorded during the year, or reported in previous financial statements, are accumulated in a "Foreign
Currency Monetary Item Translation Reserve Account" and amortized over the balance year of such long
term monetary item, by recognition as income or expense in each of such years. Long-term foreign currency
monetary items are those which have a term of twelve months or more at the date of origination. Movement
of FCMITR has been shown in the table above.
In terms of RBI circular no. DNBR (PD]CC.No.092/03.10.001/2017-18 dated May 31, 2018, the Company is

the year ended 31.03.2025, an amount of '' 340 Crores has been appropriated (previous year: '' 251.00 Crores]
towards NBFC reserve.
Securities premium is used to record the premium on issue of shares. The reserve can be utilized only for
limited purposes in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. Expenditure on issue of
shares is charged to the securities premium account.
Retained earnings represent profits and items of other comprehensive income recognized directly in retained
earnings earned by the Company less dividend distributions and transfer to and from other reserves.
The Company uses derivative instruments in pursuance of managing its foreign currency risk and interest
rate risk associated on borrowings. For hedging foreign currency and interest rate risk, the Company uses
foreign currency forward contracts, cross currency swaps and interest rate swaps. To the extent the derivative
contracts designated under the hedge accounting are effective hedges, the change in fair value of the hedging
instrument is recognized in ''Effective Portion of Cash Flow Hedges''. Amounts recognized in such reserve
are reclassified to the Standalone Statement of Profit or Loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss.
Movement of Cash Flow Hedge Reserve has been shown in the table above.
The Company is a Government Company registered with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) as a Non-Banking

As per Ind AS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, Appendix A "Changes in Existing Decommissioning,
Restoration and Similar Liabilities", specified changes in decommissioning, restoration or similar Liability
needs to be added to or deducted from the cost of the asset to which it relates; the adjusted depreciable
amount of the asset is then depreciated prospectively over its remaining useful life.
As per para 55 of Ind AS 16, the depreciable amount of an asset is determined after deducting its residual
value. The amount of decommissioning liability and residual value related to solar plant is not reliably
ascertainable. Hence, decommissioning liability related to the solar plant and the residual value have not
been considered. Further , the management is of the opinion that the decommissioning cost (net of residual
value of the solar plant), shall not be material.

shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
year. The calculation of Basic EPS is as follows:
The Company, at each balance sheet date, assesses whether there is any indication of impairment of any
asset and/or cash generating unit. If such indication exists, assets are impaired by comparing carrying
amount of each asset and/or cash generating unit to the recoverable amount being higher of the net selling
price or value in use. Value in use is determined from the present value of the estimated future cash flows
from the continuing use of the assets. The Company has no impairment loss during the current and previous
year.
This pertains to Income Tax cases for AY 2014-15 and AY 2020-21 which are pending before the CIT(Appeals), while case for
AY 2022-23 has been moved for rectification under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act. The Company is hopeful of a favourable
outcome in respect of the various issues covered under the appeal and thus except for the issues decided against the Company
in other years, for which reasonable provision has been made, no further provision has been considered as necessary.

2Service Tax and Goods & Service Tax (GST) cases
The Company had received a Notice of Demand/Order from the Commissioner, Adjudication, Central Tax, GST Delhi East dated
15 March 2022 creating demands on the Company amounting to '' 117.09 crores (excluding applicable interest) for financial
year 2012-13 to 2015-16. Although the Company contends that entire demand is barred by limitation, it has provided for '' 13.22
crores (previous year: '' 12.48 crores) including interest on conservative basis. Based on law and facts in the matter, Service
Tax demand (including interest) of '' 244.94 crores (previous year : '' 229.95 crores) has been disclosed as contingent liability.
Further, since the Company is a government enterprise, no mala fide intention can be attributed to it and thus, extended period
of limitation ought not to be invoked based on certain decisions of Hon''ble Supreme Court in such cases and hence the penalty
has not been considered for disclosure as a contingent liability. The Company has filed an appeal with CESTAT, New Delhi on 15
June 2022 in the matter and the same is pending.
The Company had received order dated 25 March 2022 from the office of Additional Director General (Adjudication) on recovery
of Service Tax on Guarantee Fee Paid to Government under Reverse Charge basis for the period April 2016 to June 2017 raising
a demand of '' 20.73 crores towards Tax, '' 20.73 crores towards penalty and applicable interest thereon. While the Company had
filed an appeal against the same before the Hon''ble CESTAT, Mumbai on 24 June 2022, it has made requisite provision towards
the Tax and interest thereon amounting to '' 69.36 crores (previous year : '' 63.10 crores) and penalty amount of '' 20.73 crores
(previous year '' 20.73 crores) has been disclosed as contingent liability.
The Company has received order dated 31 January 2024 from the office of Commissioner of Central Tax Appeals -1, Delhi, vide
which the appeal filed by the Company against recovery of GST on Guarantee Fee Paid to Government under Reverse Charge
basis for the period 01 July 2017 to 26 July 2018 has been rejected. While the Company is in the process of filing appeal with the
GST Appellate Tribunal, it has paid Tax amount of '' 13.28 crores under protest and made requisite provision towards Tax and
interest thereon amounting to '' 28.96 crores (previous year : '' 28.96 crores). The penalty amount of '' 15.26 crores (previous
period: '' 15.26 crores) has been disclosed as contingent liability.
3Others
Includes penalty for '' 0.03 crores (previous period: '' 0.03 crores) imposed by Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) w.r.t. non¬
appointment of Woman Director. The Company being a government company has no control over appointment of directors and
hence the same has not been considered for provision. The Company has filed appeal before the Regional Director (NR] MCA.
The matter is still pending for adjudication. Also includes an amount of '' 4.62 crores (previous period: '' 3.78 crores) pertaining
to cases pending before Hon''ble High Court of Delhi in the form of Writ Petition against the order of disciplinary authority for
dismissal of staff from service of the Company. There is no interim order in this matter. Also includes '' 0.35 crores (previous
period: '' 0.35 crores] pertaining to withheld PRP of ex-Functional Directors of the Company pending clarification.
Apart from above, the Company has also furnished Bank Guarantee of '' 9.90 crores to NSE to act as a designated stock
exchange for the purpose of Initial Public Offer of the Company. Also, the above does not include amount pertaining to the
arbitration proceedings initiated by M/s Jackson Engineers Ltd against IREDA & Anr on 15 August 2024, in the matter pertaining
to deduction of Liquidated damages amounting to Rs. 13.46 crores by IREDA under contract agreements for Supply, erection
work, civil & allied works as well as for the delay in commissioning of project named 50 MW (AC) Solar PV Plant at Kasargod
Solar Park, District - Kasargod, Kerala. The Claimant (Jackson Engineers Ltd] has filed claim of approx. 156.55 crores and
IREDA has filed statement of defense on 30 October 2024 with a counter claim of Rs 47.34 crores. It is unlikely that the IREDA
may get any adverse order as M/s Jackson Engineers Ltd (the Claimant) was appointed by SECI, not by IREDA. However, if any
adverse order is passed by the tribunal, the same can be challenged under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act,
1996. In view of this , probable outflow is remote hence the same has not been provided or disclosed as a contingent liability.
(ii) Fair value of Investment Property:
The market value of the investment property has been assessed (as per the valuation done by a registered
IBBI valuer as defined under rule 2 of Companies (Registered Valuers and valuation) Rules, 2017) at '' 3.66
crores as on 31 March 2025 basis valuation report dated 09 April 2025 (previous year: '' 2.90 crores).

Mar 31, 2024
A provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation (Legal or Constructive) as a result of past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
Contingent liabilities are not recognized but disclosed in Notes when the company has possible obligation due to past events and existence of the obligation depends upon occurrence or non- occurrence of future events not wholly within the control of the company and Present obligations arising from past events where it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
Contingent liabilities are assessed continuously to determine whether outflow of Economic resources have become probable. If the outflow becomes probable, then relative provision is recognized in the financial statements.
Contingent Assets are not recognized but disclosed in Notes which usually arise from unplanned or other unexpected events that give rise to the possibility of an inflow of economic benefits.
Contingent assets are assessed continuously to determine whether inflow of economic benefits becomes virtually certain, then such assets and the relative income will be recognised in the financial statements.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of the Company have been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
Material prior period errors are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for the prior periods presented in which the error occurred. If the error occurred before the earliest period presented, the opening balances of assets, liabilities and equity for the earliest period presented, are restated unless it is impracticable, in which case, the comparative information is adjusted to apply the accounting policy prospectively from the earliest date practicable.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ''profit before tax'' as reported in the statement of profit and loss /other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company''s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current tax is recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding amounts used for taxation purpose.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the assets can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Current and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including import duties, non-refundable taxes, after deducting trade discounts & rebates, borrowing cost if capitalization criteria are met and any cost directly attributable in bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be ready for its intended use.
After initial recognition, the company measures investment property by using cost model.
An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which the property is derecognized.
Investment properties are depreciated in accordance to the class of asset that it belongs and the life of the asset shall be as conceived for the same class of asset at the Company.
Though investment property is measured using cost model, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes.
Short-term employee benefits including salaries, short term compensated absences (such as a paid annual leave) where the absences are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service, profit sharing and bonuses payable within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services and non-monetary benefits for current employees are estimated and measured on an undiscounted basis.
A defined contribution plan is a plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions in respect of the employees into a separate fund. The Company has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions after its payment of the fixed contribution. The contributions made by the Company towards defined contribution plans are charged to the statement of profit and loss in the period to which the contributions relate.
The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, Post-Retirement Medical Benefit (PRMB) and Other Defined Retirement Benefit (ODRB) which are being considered as defined benefit plans covering eligible employees. Under the defined benefit plans, the amount that an employee will receive on retirement is defined by reference to the employee''s length of service, final salary, and other defined parameters. The legal obligation for any benefits remains with the Company, even if plan assets for funding the defined benefit plan have been set aside.
The Company''s obligation towards defined benefit plans is determined using the projected unit credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. The liability recognized in the statement of financial position for defined benefit plans is the present value of the Defined Benefit Obligation (DBO) at the reporting date less the fair value of plan assets. Management estimates the DBO annually with the assistance of independent actuaries.
Actuarial gains/losses resulting from re-measurements of the liability/asset are included in Other Comprehensive Income.
The liability for retirement benefits of employees in respect of provident fund, benevolent fund, superannuation fund and Gratuity is funded with separate trusts.
The company''s contribution to Provident Fund / Superannuation Fund is remitted to separate trusts established for this purpose based on a fixed percentage of the eligible employee''s salary and debited to Statement of Profit and Loss.
Liability in respect of compensated absences becoming due or expected to be availed more than one- year after the balance sheet date is estimated on the basis of actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
Actuarial gains and losses arising from past experience and changes in actuarial assumptions are charged to statement of profit and loss in the period in which such gains or losses are determined.
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transactions costs, except for those carried at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities is described below.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
⢠Amortized cost
⢠Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
⢠Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
All financial assets except for those at FVTPL or equity instruments at FVOCI are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date to identify whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied to each category of financial assets, which are described below.
? Loan at Amortised Cost
Loans (financial asset) are measured at amortized cost using Effective Interest Rate (EIR) if both of the following conditions are met:
a) The financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
b) The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A loss allowance for expected credit losses is recognized on financial assets carried at amortized cost.
? Financial assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets at FVTPL include all derivative financial instruments except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements are being applied. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in the statement of profit and loss. The fair values of financial assets in this category are determined by reference to active market transactions or using a valuation technique where no active market exists.
? Financial assets at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI)
Financial assets at FVOCI comprise of equity instruments measured at fair value. An equity investment classified as FVOCI is initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and reported within the FVOCI reserve within equity, except for dividend income, which is recognized in profit or loss. There is no recycling of such gains and losses from OCI to Statement of Profit & Loss, even on the derecognition of the investment. However, the Company may transfer the same within equity.
Financial assets (or where applicable, a part of financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) are derecognized (i.e. removed from the Company''s balance sheet) when the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the financial asset have expired, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards are transferred. The Company also derecognizes the financial asset if it has both transferred the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition.
Financial liabilities are measured subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for derivative financial liabilities which are carried at FVTPL, subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognized in the statement of profit and loss. (FVTPL)
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following established risk management policies including the use of derivatives.
The Company use Derivative instrument includes principal swap, Cross Currency & Interest Rate Swap (CCIRS), forwards, interest rate swaps, currency and cross currency options, structured product, etc. to hedge foreign currency assets and liabilities.
Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value (MTM). Attributable transaction costs are recognized in statement of profit and loss as cost.
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial assets expires or transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset.
Derivative financial instruments are accounted for at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) except for derivatives designated as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge relationships, which require a specific accounting treatment. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must meet all of the following requirements:
- there is an economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument
- the effect of credit risk does not dominate the value changes that result from that economic relationship
- the hedge ratio of the hedging relationship is the same as that resulting from the quantity of the hedged item that the entity actually hedges and the quantity of the hedging instrument that the entity actually uses to hedge that quantity of hedged item.
The Company has designated mostly derivative contracts as hedging instruments in cash flow hedge relationships. These arrangements have been entered into to mitigate foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk arising against which debt instruments denominated in foreign currency.
⢠Cash Flow hedging is done to protect cash flow positions of the company from changes in exchange rate fluctuations and to bring variability in cash flow to fixed ones.
⢠The Company enters into hedging instruments in accordance with policies as approved by the Board of Directors; provide written principles which are consistent with the risk management strategy/policies of the Company.
⢠All derivative financial instruments used for hedge accounting are recognised initially at fair value and reported subsequently at fair value in the balance sheet.
The hedge instruments are designated and documented as hedges at the inception of the contract. The effectiveness of hedge instruments is assessed and measured at inception and on an on-going basis. The effective portion of change in the fair value as assessed based on MTM valuation provided by respective banks/third party valuation of the designated hedging instrument is recognized in the "Other Comprehensive Incomeâ as "Cash Flow Hedge Reserveâ. The ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss as and when occurs.
At the time the hedged item affects profit or loss, any gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income.
If the hedging relationship no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in Cash Flow Hedge Reserve remains in Cash Flow Hedge Reserve till the period the hedge was effective. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the Cash Flow Hedge Reserve is transferred to the Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the underlying transaction.
Impairment of financial assets
? Loan assets
The Company follows a ''three-stage'' model for impairment of loan asset carried at amortized cost based on changes in credit quality since initial recognition as summarized below:
⢠Stage 1 includes loan assets that have not had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or that has low credit risk at the reporting date.
⢠Stage 2 includes loan assets that have had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition but that do not have objective evidence of impairment.
⢠Stage 3 includes loan assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.
The Expected Credit Loss (ECL) is measured at 12-month ECL for Stage 1 loan assets and lifetime ECL for Stage 2 and Stage 3 loan assets. ECL is the product of the Probability of Default, Exposure at Default and Loss Given Default, defined as follows:
Probability of Default (PD) - The PD represents the likelihood of a borrower defaulting on its financial obligation, either over the next 12 months (12 months PD), or over the remaining lifetime (Lifetime PD) of the obligation.
Loss Given Default (LGD) - LGD represents the Company''s expectation of the extent of loss on a defaulted exposure. LGD varies by type of counterparty, type, and preference of claim and availability of collateral or other credit support.
Exposure at Default (EAD) - EAD is based on the amount of outstanding exposure as on the assessment date on which ECL is computed.
Forward-looking economic information is included in determining the 12-month and lifetime PD, EAD and LGD. The assumptions underlying the expected credit loss are monitored and reviewed on an on-going basis.
? Financial Instruments other than Loans consist of :-
⢠Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, finance lease receivables, employee and other advances.
⢠Financial liabilities include borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables.
Non derivative financial instruments other than loans are recognized initially at fair value including any directly attributable transaction costs. Financial assets are derecognized when substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred. In cases where substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets are derecognized only when the Company has not retained control over the financial asset.
Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured as prescribed below:
a) Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, at bank, demand deposits with banks, cash credit, fixed deposits and foreign currency deposits, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Company''s cash management system. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings.
b) Trade Receivable
The company follows ''simplified approach'' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables. The application of simplified approach does not require the company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition. The Company determines impairment loss allowance based on individual assessment of receivables, historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates.
c) Other payables
Other payables are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Proposed dividends and interim dividends payable to the shareholders are recognized as changes in equity in the period in which they are approved by the Board of Directors and in the shareholders'' meeting respectively.
The Company measures financial instruments, such as derivatives at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
⢠In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
⢠In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset
or liability, including assumptions about risk, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest. A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
⢠Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
⢠Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
⢠Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements regularly, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
? Interest Income
Interest income is accounted on all financial assets (except company is not recognizing interest income on credit impaired financial assets) measured at amortized cost. Interest income is recognized using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method in line with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.

The AO had not passed the order on these cases within the statutory time limit prescribed under the Act. Earlier the company had deposited the taxes under protest on the basis of demand raised for the aforementioned Assessment Years. In view of the foregoing, the demands paid over and above the tax payable as per returns filed became refundable. Accordingly, during Financial Year 2018- 19, a Writ petition has been filed with Honâble High Court to issue the necessary directions to the department to grant the refund for the aforementioned years. The Honâble High Court at Delhi had passed an interim order as under- âIn the meanwhile, the respondents are permitted to proceed and complete the assessment orders and not give effect to it or take any coercive action.â Final decision in the matter is still pending. âService Tax and Goods & Service Tax (GST) cases The Company had received of Notice of Demand/Order from the Commissioner, Adjudication, Central Tax, GST Delhi East vide no GST-15/Adju/DE/IREDA/71/2017-18/3706-08 dated 15.03.2022 creating demands on IREDA amounting to ^ 11,709.11 Lakhs for Financial year 2012-13 to 2015-16. Although the company contends that entire demand is barred by limitation, it has provided for ^ 1,174.80 Lakhs (previous year ^ 1,101.41 Lakhs) including interest on conservative basis. Based on law and facts in the matter, Service Tax demand (including interest) of ^ 21,492.48 Lakhs ( previous year ^ 19,993.88 Lakhs) has been disclosed as contingent liability. Further, since the company is a government enterprise, no mala fide intention can be attributed to it and thus, extended period of limitation ought not to be invoked based on certain decisions of Honâble Supreme Court in such cases and hence the penalty has not been considered for disclosure as a contingent liability. The company has filed an appeal with CESTAT, New Delhi on 15.06.2022 in the matter. The company has also received order no. DE/NP/R-174/GST/ADC(NR)/005/2022-23 dated 28.02.2023 from the office of Additional Commissioner, Adjudication, Central Tax, GST Delhi East on recovery of GST on Guarantee Fee Paid to Government under Reverse Charge basis for the period: 01.07.2017 To 26.07.2018 raising a demand of Rs. 1,525.08 Lakhs towards Tax, Rs. 1,525.58 Lakhs towards penalty and applicable interest thereon.

This section explains the judgement and estimates made in determining the fair values of 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 financial statements. To provide an indication about reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value the company has classified its financial instruments into three levels prescribed under accounting standard. An explanation on each level follows underneath the table. c) Considering the materiality, we have ignored discounting of employee loan and security deposits. Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments, traded bonds and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments (including bonds) which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as on the reporting date. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV Level 2: Financial instruments that are not traded in active market (for example, traded bonds,) is determined using other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3: Technique which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data like unlisted equity securities. MTM calculation is based upon the valuation provided by the registered independent valuer as defined under rule 2 of Companies (Registered Valuers and valuation) Rules, 2017, for outstanding derivative instrument at reporting date. Pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the asset. For valuation of MTM value of hedge deal, IREDA has obtained valuation from a registered independent expert valuer, who has provided such valuation after considering movement in market position, movement in exchange rate, interest rate etc. The carrying amount of the trade receivables, trade payables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balance, other financial assets and liabilities are considered to be same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature. The fair values for borrowings, loans to companies, debt securities are calculated based on cash flows discounted using current lending rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk. The fair values of non-current borrowings are based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk. Risk is managed through a risk management framework, identification measurement and monitoring subject to risk limits and other controls. The Board of Directors is responsible for overall risk management approach and for approving the risk management strategies and principles. The risk committee has the responsibility for the development of risk strategy and implementing principles, framework, policies and limits. The risk committee is responsible for managing risk decisions and monitoring risk level and report to the Board. The companyâs finance & treasury is responsible for managing its assets and liability and overall financial structure.
