3 Summary ofsignificantaccounting policies
3.01 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Holding Company and its subsidiary (together referred to as the "Group") as at 31st March 2025. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
(i) Rower over the investee (i.c. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).
(ii) Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
(iii) The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
a) The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
b) The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
c) The Group''s voting rights and potential voting rights
d) The size of the group''s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of the holdings of the other voting rights holders
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
"Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. If a member of the group uses accounting policies oilier than those adopted in the consolidated financial statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments arc made to that group memberâs financial statements in preparing the consolidated financial statements to ensure conformity with thegroup''s accounting policies."
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the following basis:
(a) Combine like items of assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows of the parent with those of its subsidiaries. For this purpose, income and expenses of the subsidiary are based on the amounts of the assets and liabilities recognized in the consolidated financial statements at the acquisition date.
(b) Offset (eliminate) the carrying amount of the parent''s investment in each subsidiary and the parent''s portion of equity of each subsidiary. Business combinations policy explains how to account for any related goodwill.
(c) Eliminate in full intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the group (profits or losses resulting from intragroup transactions that are recognized in assets, such as inventory and fixed assets, are eliminated in full). Intragroup losses may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements. Ind AS 12 Income Taxes applies to temporary differences that arise from the elimination of profits and losses resulting from intragroup transactions.
(d) Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income (0C1) are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group''s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation except as stated in point © above.
(e) Investments in associate
Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is generally the case where the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method ofaccounting (see (Q below), after initially being recognised at cost.
(f) Equity method
Under the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the Group''s share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of the investee in profit and loss, and the Group''s share of other comprehensive income of the investee in other comprehensive income. Dividends received or receivable from associates and joint ventures are recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group''s share of losses in an equity-accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, including any other unsecured long-term receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity. Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group''s interest in these entities. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of equity accounted investees have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. The carrying amount of equity accounted investments are tested for impairment.
(g) Changes in ownership interests
"The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognised within equity. When the Group ceases to consolidate or equity account for an investment because of a loss ofcontrol, joint control or significant influence, any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognised in Consolidated Profit and Loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss. If the ownership interest in a joint venture or an associate is reduced but joint control or significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income arc reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate."
(h) The excess of cost to the Parent Company of its investment in the subsidiary over the
Parent Company''s portion of equity of the subsidiary is recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements as Goodwill. This Goodwill is tested for impairment at the end of the financial year. The excess of Parent Company''s portion of equity over the cost of investment as at the date of its investment is treated as Capital Reserve.
(1) The financial statements of the subsidiaries / associates used in consolidation are drawn upto the same reporting date as that of the Parent Company.

3.03 Business combinations and goodwill
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the aggregate of the consideration transferred measured at acquisition date fair value and the amount of any non- controlling interests in the acquire. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure the non- controlling interests in the acquire at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree''s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. For this purpose, the liabilities assumed include contingent liabilities representing present obligation and they are measured at their acquisition fair values irrespective of the fact that outflow'' of resources embodying economic benefits is not probable. However, the following assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination are measured at the basis indicated below:
Deferred tax assets or liabilities, and the assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with Ind AS 12 Income Tax and Ind AS 19 Employee Benefits, respectively
When Lhe Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date.
Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for non-controlling interests, and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, the Group re-assesses whether it has correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed and reviews the procedures used to measure the amounts to be recognized at the acquisition date. If the reassessment still results in an excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over the aggregate consideration transferred, then the gain is recognized in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and accumulated in equity as capital reserve. However, if there is no clear evidence of bargain purchase, the entity recognizes the gain directly in equity as capital reserve, without routing the same through OCI.
After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the Group''s cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are assigned to those units.
A cash generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairmentannually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognized in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
Where goodwill has been allocated to a cash generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed of, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal. Goodwill disposed in these circumstances is measured based on the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.
Business combinations involving entities or businesses under common control shall be accounted for using the pooling of interests method - wherein:
(a) The assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts.
(b) The excess, if any, in the value of net assets and reserves to be vested in the transferee company, would be credited to the''Capital Reserve Account''.
(c) No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognize any new assets or liabilities. The only adjustments that are made are to harmonize accounting policies. The business combination has been restated from earliest period presented.
3.04 Foreign currencies
"Functional and Presentation Currency Items included in the financial statements of the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates (''the functional currency''). The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (1NR), which is Group''s functional and presentation currency."
"Transactions and BalancesForeign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses from settlement of these transactions, and from translation of monetary assets and liabilities at the reporting date exchange rates are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss except in case of certain long term foreign currency monetary items where the treatment as under:"
Non monetary items which are carried at historical cost denominated in foreign currency are reported using the exchange rates at the dates of the transaction.
Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss on a net basis.
3.05 Fair value measurement
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
1 n 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 Group.
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, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interesL
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 Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data arc 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 arc 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 on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing 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.
The Group''s Management determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, such as derivative instruments and unquoted financial assets measured at fair value, and for non-recurring measurement, such as assets held for distribution in discontinued operations.
At each reporting date, the Management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Group''s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Management verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation compulation to contracts and other relevant documents.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
This note summarizes accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes.
3.06 Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customer is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services
Ind AS 115 "Revenue from contracts with Customers" provides a control-based revenue recognition model and provides a five step application approach to be followed for revenue recognition.
A) Identify thecontract(s) with customer;
B) Identify the performance obligations;
C) Determine the transaction price;
D) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations;
E) Recognise revenue when or as an entity satisfies performance obligation.
Revenue from operations
Sale of goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised net of indirect taxes.
Erection and commissioning, Claims including escalation charges and Contractual liquidated damages
Revenue on erection and commissioning of contracts is recognised on the ''Percentage of completion method''. Claims including escalation are recognised as revenue on client''s acceptance or evidence of acceptance. Contractual liquidated damages payable for delays in completion of contract work or for other causes are accounted for at costs when deducted, and/or when such delays and causes are attributable to the Company.
3.07 Other income:
Interest income
Under Ind AS109, Interest income is recognised by applying the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) to the gross carrying amount of financial assets other than credit-impaired assets and financial assets classified as measured at fair value through Profit and loss (FVTPL)
Rental income arising from operating lease on investment property is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Dividend Income
Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholders'' rights to receive payment have been established.
3.08 Taxes
I) Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and lax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income.
Current income taxes are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that the tax relates to items recognized outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates position taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subjected to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
ii) Deferred income tax
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arc recognized for all temporary differences between the lax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.
The carrying amount of deferred lax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent dial it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which die liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or subslandvely enacted by the balance sheet date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred income tax assets is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax loss can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities arc offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by die same taxation authority and die Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
iii) The Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence dial the Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the year in which the Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit becomes eligible to be recognized as an asset in accordance with the recommendadons contained in guidance issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, the said asset is created by way of a credit to the statement of profit and loss and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company reviews the same at each balance sheet date and writes down the carrying amount of MAT Credit Entitlement to
the extent there is no longer convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay normal income lax during thespecified period.
3.09 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and where applicable accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
SubsequentCost
Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Capital Work in Progress (CWIP) includes cost of property, plant and equipment under installation / under development, as at balance sheet dale. All project related expenditure viz. civil works, machinery under erection, construction and erection materials, preoperative expenditure incidental / attributable to the construction of projects, borrowing cost incurred prior to the date of commercial operations and trial run expenditure are shown under CWIP. These expenses are net of recoveries and income (net of tax) from surplus funds arising out of project specific borrowings.
An asset''s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount
Property, Plant and Equipment are eliminated from the Consolidated Financial Statements, either on disposal or when retired from active use.
Gains and losses on disposals or retirement of assets are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss.
Depreciation
"Property, Plant and Equipment have been depreciated under written down value method as per the useful life and in the manner prescribed in Schedule 11 to the Act. "
3.10 Intangible assets
Intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have finite useful lifes, are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the intangible asset.
Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Amortisation on written down value basis |
Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values arc reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
Derecognition of assets
An item of intangible asset and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognized.
Amortisation Method:
Computer software is amortized under the written down value method over a period of 3 - 6 years for which the Group expects the benefits to accrue.
3.11 Borrowing costs
"Borrowing costs directly attributable to theacquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing costs. Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization."
3.12 Inventories:
i) Inventories are valued at weighted average method or net realizable value whichever is lower. Obsolete, defective and unserviceable stocks are provided for, whenever required.
ii) Work in process includes material cost, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition.
iii) Stores and spares are charged / written off to the manufacturing and operating expenses in the year of purchase.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
3.13 Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
"Provisions for legal claims and returns are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Provisions are measured at the present value of managementâs best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the
end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as finance cosl.A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is probable that an outflow of resources will not be required to settle the obligation. However, if the possibility of outflow of resources, arising out of present obligation, is remote, it is not even disclosed as contingent liability.A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Group does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. A Contingent asset is not recognized in Consolidated Financial Statements, however, the same is disclosed where an inflow of economic benefit is probable."
3.14 (a) Impairment of financial assets
Expected credit losses are recognized for all financial assets subsequent to initial recognition other than financial assets in FVTPL category. For financial assets other than trade receivables, as per Ind AS 109, the Group recognizes 12 month expected credit losses for all originated or acquired financial assets if at the reporting date the credit risk of the financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition. The expected credit losses are measured as lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on financial assets increases significantly since its initial recognition. The Group''s trade receivables do not contain significant financing component and loss allowance on trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to life time expected losses i.e. expected cash shortfall.The impairment losses and reversals are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss."
(b) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group estimates the assetâs recoverable amount An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that arc largely independent of those from other assets or Groupâs assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount
3.15 Financial instruments Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
On initial recognition, a financial asset is recognized at fair value, in case of Financial assets which arc recognized at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL), its transaction cost are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction cost are attributed to the acquisition value of the financial asset.
Subsequent measurement
Financial assets are subsequently classified as measured at
Amortized Cost: Financial assets that arc held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, arc subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (''EIR'') method less impairment, if any. The amortization of El R and loss arising from impairment, if any is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Fair Value through profit and loss (FVTPL) : A financial asset not classified as either amortized cost or FV0C1, is classified as FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured at fair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognized as ''other income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss, fair value through other comprehensive income (FV0C1): Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both, selling financial assets and collecting contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (0C1). Interest income measured using the EIR method and impairment losses, if any are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On derecognition, cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in 0C1 is reclassified from the equity to âother income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their recognition, except if and in the period the Group changes its business model for managing financial assets.
Debt instruments are initially measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (''FV0C1'') or fair value through profit or loss (''FVTPL'') till derecognition on the basis of (i) the entity''s business model for managing the financial assets and (ii) the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asscL
\ (a) Measured at amortized cost: Financial assets that are held within a business
model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate (''EIR'') method less impairment, if any. The amortization of El Rand loss arising from impairment, if any is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(b) Measured at fair value through other comprehensive income: Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both, selling financial assets and collecting contractual cash flows that arc solely payments of principal and interest, are subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Fair value movements are recognized in the other comprehensive income (0C1). Interest income measured using the EIR method and impairment losses, if any are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On derecognition, cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from the equity to ''other income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(c) Measured at fair value through profit or loss: A financial asset not classified as either amortized cost or FV0C1, is classified as FVTPL. Such financial assets are measured al fair value with all changes in fair value, including interest income and dividend income if any, recognized as ''other income'' in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Equity Instruments:
AH investments in equity instruments classified under financial assets are initially measured at fair value, the Group may, on initial recognition, irrevocably elect to measure the same cither at FVOClorFVTPL.
The Group makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

Trade Receivables and Loans:
Trade receivables and loans are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequently, these assets arc held at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate (EIR) method net of any expected credit losses. The E1R is the rale that discounts estimated future cash income through the expected life of financial instrument.
Derecognition
The Group derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows from the asset.
Financial Liabilities:
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrumenL Financial liabilities are initially measured at the amortized cost unless at initial recognition, they are classified as fair value through profit and loss. In case of trade payables, they are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently, these liabilities are held at amortized cost, using the effective interest method.
Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities at amortized cost: After initial measurement, such financial liabilities are subsequently measured al amortized cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The E1R amortization is included in finance costs in the Consolidated StatementofProfitand Loss.
"(a) Borrowings:Borrowings are initially recognised al fair value, net of transaction costs
incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured al amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest rate method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable dial some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which
it relates"
"(b) Trade and Other Payables:These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method."
Derecognition
"A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liabilily.The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss."
Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Group or the counterparty.

For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the Statement of profit or loss.
Non-financial assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An assetâs recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an
individual asset unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the statement of profit and loss if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any accumulated amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

profit and loss.
j) Accounting for taxes on income:
i) Provision for income tax is made on the basis of the estimated
taxable income for the accounting year in accordance with the
Income-tax Act, 1961.
ii) The deferred tax for timing differences between the book profits
and tax profits for the year is accounted for using the tax rates and
laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted as of the balance
sheet date. Deferred tax assets arising from timing differences are
recognised to the extent there is a reasonable / virtual certainty that
these would be realised in future and are reviewed for the
appropriateness of their respective carrying values at each balance
sheet date.
iii) The Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit is recognized as an asset
only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the
Company will pay normal income tax during the specified period. In the
year in which the Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) credit becomes eligible
to be recognized as an asset in accordance with the recommendations
contained in guidance issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India, the said asset is created by way of a credit to the statement
of profit and loss and shown as MAT Credit Entitlement. The Company
reviews the same at each balance sheet date and writes down the
carrying amount of MAT Credit Entitlement to the extent there is no
longer convincing evidence to the effect that the Company will pay
normal income tax during the specified period.

and benefits of ownership of the leased assets are classified as
operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense
in the statement of profit and loss on straight-line basis over the
lease term.
l) Impairment of fixed assets:
The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any
indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication
exists, the management estimates the recoverable amount of the asset.
If such recoverable amount of the asset is less than its carrying
amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The
reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is recognized in the
statement of profit and loss. If at the balance sheet date there is an
indication that if a previously assessed impairment loss no longer
exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected
at the recoverable amount subject to a maximum of depreciated
historical cost.
m) Provisions and contingent liabilities:
Provision is recognised when an enterprise has a present obligation as
a result of past event; 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. Provisions are not discounted to present
value and are determined based on best estimate required to settle the
obligation at the balance sheet date. These are reviewed at each
balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
n) Earnings per share:
The basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing the net
profit after tax for the year available for the equity shareholders by
the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
year. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net
profit after tax for the year available for equity shareholders and the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are
adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
o) Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and Cash equivalents for the purpose of cash flow statement
comprise cash on hand and cash at bank including fixed deposit with
original maturity period of three months or less and short term highly
liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
