(p) Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present, legal or constructive obligation as a result of
a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a
reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are determined based on the
best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. Provisions are reviewed at each
Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best estimates.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s 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 recognized
as interest expense.
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
Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation. 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 Company
does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements. A disclosure
for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligation arising out of past events, the
existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain
future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation arising out of a past
event where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable
estimate of the amount cannot be made.
(q) Paid-up equity
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a
deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(r) Dividends
The Company recognizes a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the Company
when distribution is authorized and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per
the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorized when it is approved by the shareholders. A
corresponding amount is recognized directly in equity.
(s) Earnings per share
(i) Basic Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial
year. Earnings considered in ascertaining the Company''s earnings per share is the net profit for the
period after deducting any attributable tax thereto for the period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such
as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number
of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
(ii) Diluted Earnings per Share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period
attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during
the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
B. Significant Accounting Policies:
This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these standalone
financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise
stated.
(a) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief
operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources
and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors that
makes strategic decisions for the Company. Refer note 36 for segment information presented.
(b) Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the standalone financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of
the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (''the functional currency''). The standalone
financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is the Company''s functional and presentation
currency.
Initial Recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in Indian currency, by applying the exchange rate between the
Indian currency and the foreign currency at the date of transaction.
Conversion
Monetary items, designated in foreign currencies are revalued at the rate prevailing on the date of
Balance Sheet.
Exchange Differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement and conversion of foreign currency transactions are
recognized as income or as expenses in the year in which they arise, except in cases where they relate to
the acquisition of qualifying assets, in which cases they were adjusted in the cost of the corresponding
asset.
(c) Leases
The determination of whether a contract is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the contract
at the inception of the lease. The contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control
the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a Lessee
At the commencement date, a lessee shall recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. A lessee shall
measure the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The
lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily
determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee''s incremental
borrowing rate.
The Company uses the practical expedient to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to a portfolio of leases
with similar characteristics if the effects on the financial statements of applying to the portfolio does not
differ materially from applying the requirement to the individual leases within that portfolio.
However, when the lessee and the lessor each have the right to terminate the lease without permission
from the other party with no more than an insignificant penalty the Company considers that lease to be no
longer enforceable. Also according to Ind AS 116, for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less
(short-term leases) and for leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the lessee is not required
to recognize right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The Company applies both recognition exemptions.
Right of use asset
Right-of-use assets, which are included under property, plant and equipment, are measured at cost less
any accumulated depreciation and, if necessary, any accumulated impairment. The cost of a right-of-use
asset comprises the present value of the outstanding lease payments plus any lease payments made at or
before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and an estimate
of costs to be incurred in dismantling or removing the underlying asset. In this context, the Company also
applies the practical expedient that the payments for non-lease components are generally recognized as
lease payments.
If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee at the end of the lease term or if the
cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the lessee will exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset
is depreciated to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the right-of-use asset is
depreciated to the end of the lease term.
Lease liability
Lease liabilities, which are assigned to financing liabilities, are measured initially at the present value of
the lease payments. Subsequent measurement of a lease liability includes the increase of the carrying
amount to reflect interest on the lease liability and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease
payments made.
Lease modification
For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Company accounts for the re¬
measurement of the lease liability by making a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset.
Company as Lessor
A lessor shall classify each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is classified
as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an
underlying asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks
and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.
Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the company''s net investment
in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods to reflect a constant periodic rate of
return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.
Where the Company is a lessor under an operating lease, the asset is capitalised within property, plant and
equipment and depreciated over its useful economic life. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that
the Company will obtain possession of the asset upon end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over
the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant
lease unless the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to
compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases or another systematic basis is available.
Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying
amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income.
Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
(d) Post-employment and other employee benefits
Post-employment benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits and short-term
employee benefits) that are payable after the completion of employment.
Provident fund
Provident fund is a defined contribution plan covering eligible employees. The Company and the eligible
employees make a monthly contribution to the provident fund maintained by the Regional Provident Fund
Commissioner equal to the specified percentage of the basic salary of the eligible employees as per the
scheme. The contributions to the provident fund are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the
year when the contributions are due. The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable
to the provident fund.
Gratuity
At present the Company has no Gratuity plan asset. The present value of the obligation under such defined
benefit plan is determined based on the actuarial valuation using the Projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, excluding amounts included in net interest on
the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest
on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet as asset/liability with
a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
⢠The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
⢠The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs
⢠Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset.
The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in
the statement of profit and loss:
⢠Service costs comprising of current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments
and non-routine settlements; and
⢠Net interest expense or income
Compensated Absences
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next twelve months, is treated as short¬
term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional
amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting
date. The Company treats accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as
long-term employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long-term compensated absences are
provided for based on the actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the reporting date.
Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The
Company presents the entire leave encashment liability as a current liability in the balance sheet, to the
extent it does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for twelve months after the reporting
date. Where the Company has the unconditional legal and contractual right to defer the settlement for a
period beyond twelve months, the same is presented as non-current liability.
2. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company''s standalone financial statements requires management to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and
the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. This note provides an overview of the
areas that involve a higher degree of judgments or complexities and of items which are more likely to be
materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed.
Detailed information about each of these judgments, estimates and assumptions is mentioned below.
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and
other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates
on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions
about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are
beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i. Fair value measurement of unquoted financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be
measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques.
The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not
feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations
of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could
affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 33 for further disclosures.
ii. Deferred Tax
At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether the realization of future tax benefits is
sufficiently probable to recognize deferred tax assets. This assessment requires the use of significant
estimates with respect to assessment of future taxable income. The recorded amount of total deferred
tax asset could change if estimates of projected future taxable income or if changes in current tax regulations
are enacted.
(b) Terms/ rights attached to equity shares
The Company has only one class of issued equity shares having a par value of Rs.5/- per share. Each holder of
equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. The Company declares and pays dividend in Indian rupees. The
dividend, proposed by the Board of Directors, if any, is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the
ensuing Annual General Meeting. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of Equity Shares will
be entitled to receive surplus assets of the Company, remaining after distribution of all preferential amounts.
The dividend paid during the year Rs. Nil (F.Y. 2023-24 - Rs. Nil)]
(c) Aggregate number of bonus shares issued, shares issued for consideration other than cash
and shares bought back during the period of five years immediately preceding the reporting
date
There are no bonus shares issued, shares issued for consideration other than cash and shares bought back
during the period of five years immediately preceding reporting date.
Nature and purpose of reserves:
i General reserve : Under the erstwhile Companies Act, 1956, a general reserve was created through an
annual transfer of net profit at a specified percentage in accordance with applicable regulations. Consequent
to the introduction of the Companies Act, 2013, the requirement to mandatory transfer a specified percentage
of net profit to general reserve has been withdrawn. There is no movement in General Reserve since transfer
under the scheme of arrangement.
ii Capital reserve : It is the reserve pertaining to the investment undertaking transferred to the Resultant
Company, i.e. BF Investment Ltd., Consequent to the scheme of arrangement approved by High Court of
judicature, Mumbai during F.Y. 2009-2010.
iii Capital Redemption Reserve : An erstwhile subsidiary of BF Utilities Ltd. (amalgamated company) had
preference capital. At the time of redemption of said preference capital, Redemption reserve was created,
which has since got transferred to BF Investment Ltd. by means of scheme of arrangement.
iv Statutory Reserve Fund : Under sec 45IC(1) of RBI act, every NBFC has to transfer 20% of it''s post tax
profits to a corpus termed as Reserve Fund.
v FVTOCI Equity investment reserve: The Company has elected to recognise changes in the fair value of
investment in equity shares in other comprehensive income. These changes are accumulated within the
FVTOCI investment reserve within equity. The Company will transfer amounts from the said reserve to
retained earnings when the relevant equity shares are de-recognised.
32 Gratuity and other post-employment benefit plans
Gratuity plan
Unfunded scheme
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan for its employees. The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment
of Gratuity Act, 1972 and the Scheme framed by the Company. Under the Act, every employee who has completed
five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the employee''s
length of service and salary at retirement age. Every employee who has completed five years but not more than
fifteen years of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn) for each completed year of
service as per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Every employee who has completed fifteen
years of service gets a gratuity on departure at one month''s salary (last drawn) for each completed year of
service, subject to maximum for 20 months'' salary as per the Scheme of the Company.
Risk exposure and asset-liability matching
Provision of a defined benefit scheme poses certain risks, some of which are detailed hereunder, as companies
take on uncertain long-term obligations to make future benefit payments.
1) Liability risks
a) Asset-liability mismatch risk
Risk arises if there is a mismatch in the duration of the assets relative to the liabilities. By matching
duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the Company is successfully able to neutralize valuation
swings caused by interest rate movements.
b) Discount rate risk
Variations in the discount rate used to compute the present value of the liabilities may seem small, but in
practice can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.
c) Future salary escalation and inflation risk
Since price inflation and salary growth are linked economically, they are combined for disclosure purposes.
Rising salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher present
value of liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management''s discretion may lead
to uncertainties in estimating this increasing risk.
2) Asset risks
At present the Company has not opted for any asset plan.
In respect of the above plans, the most recent actuarial valuation of the plan assets and the present value of
the defined benefit obligation were carried out as at 31 March 2025 by a member firm of the Institute of
Actuaries of India. The present value of the defined benefit obligation, and the related current service cost
and past service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.
The following table summarises the components of net benefit expense recognised in the statement of
profit and loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the gratuity plan.
The principal assumptions used in determining gratuity for the Company''s plan is shown
below:
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using
valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on
entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the
instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is
included in level 3.
ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:
- The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments
- The fair value for preference shares is determined using discounted cash flow analysis (KSL Holding
Private Limited, Kalyani Technoforge Limited and Kalyani Financial Services Private Limited)
- The fair value for loans is determined using discounted cash flow analysis (Loans to BF Utilities Limited,
Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise Limited and Nandi Economic Corridor Enterprises Limited).
- The fair value for compulsorily convertible debentures is determined using asset approach (Net Asset
Value method).
- The fair value for unquoted equity shares are determined using cost approach.
iii) Valuation process
The Company performs the valuations of assets and liabilities required for financial reporting purposes. The
Company appoints external valuation experts whenever the need arises for level 3 fair valuation. Discussions
of valuation processes and results are held between the Company and the valuation experts periodically, in
line with the Company''s annual reporting period.
iv) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost
The carrying amounts of such financial assets and liabilities are a reasonable approximation of their fair
values.
34 Financial risk management
Presented below is a description of the risks (market risk and liquidity risk) together with a sensitivity analysis,
performed annually, of each of these risks based on selected changes in market rates and prices. These analyses
reflect management''s view of changes which are reasonably possible to occur over a one-year period.
I Market Risk
A Price risk
The Company''s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the Company and
classified in the balance sheet whether at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income or at fair
value through profit and loss.
To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies the portfolio.
The majority of Company''s equity investments are publically traded and are included in the BSE and NSE
indices.
II Liquidity Risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through
an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market
positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in
funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of
the Company''s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. In addition,
the Company''s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid
assets necessary to meet these debt financing plans.
i) Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on
their contractual maturities:
36Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief

(p) Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present, legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best estimates.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s 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 recognized as interest expense.
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 Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. 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 Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligation arising out of past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation arising out of a past
event where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
(q) Paid-up equity
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(r) Dividends
The Company recognizes a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the Company when distribution is authorized and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorized when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognized directly in equity.
(s) Earnings per share
(i) Basic Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial year. Earnings considered in ascertaining the Company''s earnings per share is the net profit for the period after deducting any attributable tax thereto for the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
(ii) Diluted Earnings per Share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
IB. Significant Accounting Policies:
This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these standalone financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
(a) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors that makes strategic decisions for the Company. Refer note 36 for segment information presented.
(b) Foreign currency translation Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the standalone financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (''the functional currency''). The standalone financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is the Company''s functional and presentation currency.
Initial Recognition
Foreign currency transactions are recorded in Indian currency, by applying the exchange rate between the Indian currency and the foreign currency at the date of transaction.
Conversion
Monetary items, designated in foreign currencies are revalued at the rate prevailing on the date of Balance Sheet.
Exchange Differences
Exchange differences arising on the settlement and conversion of foreign currency transactions are recognized as income or as expenses in the year in which they arise, except in cases where they relate to the acquisition of qualifying assets, in which cases they were adjusted in the cost of the corresponding asset.
(c) Leases
The determination of whether a contract is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the contract at the inception of the lease. The contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a Lessee
At the commencement date, a lessee shall recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. A lessee shall measure the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments shall be discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee''s incremental borrowing rate.
The Company uses the practical expedient to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics if the effects on the financial statements of applying to the portfolio does not differ materially from applying the requirement to the individual leases within that portfolio.
However, when the lessee and the lessor each have the right to terminate the lease without permission from the other party with no more than an insignificant penalty the Company considers that lease to be no longer enforceable. Also according to Ind AS 116, for leases with a lease term of12 months or less (shortterm leases) and for leases for which the underlying asset is of low value, the lessee is not required to recognize right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The Company applies both recognition exemptions.
Right of use asset
Right-of-use assets, which are included under property, plant and equipment, are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and, if necessary, any accumulated impairment. The cost of a right-of-use asset comprises the present
value of the outstanding lease payments plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and an estimate of costs to be incurred in dismantling or removing the underlying asset. In this context, the Company also applies the practical expedient that the payments for non-lease components are generally recognized as lease payments.
If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee at the end of the lease term or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the lessee will exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated to the end of the useful life of the underlying asset. Otherwise, the right-of-use asset is depreciated to the end of the lease term.
Lease liability
Lease liabilities, which are assigned to financing liabilities, are measured initially at the present value of the lease payments. Subsequent measurement of a lease liability includes the increase of the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
Lease modification
For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Company accounts for the remeasurement of the lease liability by making a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset.
Company as Lessor
A lessor shall classify each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.
Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the company''s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment outstanding in respect of the lease.
Where the Company is a lessor under an operating lease, the asset is capitalised within property, plant and equipment and depreciated over its useful economic life. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will obtain possession of the asset upon end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Rental income from operating lease is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease unless the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases or another systematic basis is available. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised over the lease term on the same basis as rental income. Contingent rents are recognised as revenue in the period in which they are earned.
(d) Post-employment and other employee benefits
Post-employment benefits are employee benefits (other than termination benefits and short-term employee benefits) that are payable after the completion of employment.
Provident fund
Provident fund is a defined contribution plan covering eligible employees. The Company and the eligible employees make a monthly contribution to the provident fund maintained by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner equal to the specified percentage of the basic salary of the eligible employees as per the scheme. The contributions to the provident fund are charged to the statement of profit and loss for the year when the contributions are due. The Company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund.
Gratuity
At present the Company has no Gratuity plan asset. The present value of the obligation under such defined benefit plan is determined based on the actuarial valuation using the Projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the balance sheet as asset/liability with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past service costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss on the earlier of:
⢠The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
⢠The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs
⢠Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit and loss:
⢠Service costs comprising of current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine settlements; and
⢠Net interest expense or income Compensated Absences
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next twelve months, is treated as shortterm employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. The Company treats accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as long-term employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long-term compensated absences are provided for based on the actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the reporting date.
Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The Company presents the entire leave encashment liability as a current liability in the balance sheet, to the extent it does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for twelve months after the reporting date. Where the Company has the unconditional legal and contractual right to defer the settlement for a period beyond twelve months, the same is presented as non-current liability.
2. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company''s standalone financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. This note provides an overview of the areas that involve a higher degree of judgments or complexities and of items which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these judgments, estimates and assumptions is mentioned below.
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
i. Fair value measurement of unquoted financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 33 for further disclosures.
ii. Deferred Tax
At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether the realization of future tax benefits is sufficiently probable to recognize deferred tax assets. This assessment requires the use of significant estimates with respect to assessment of future taxable income. The recorded amount of total deferred tax asset could change if estimates of projected future taxable income or if changes in current tax regulations are enacted.
Nature and purpose of reserves:
i General reserve : Under the erstwhile Companies Act, 1956, a general reserve was created through an annual transfer of net profit at a specified percentage in accordance with applicable regulations. Consequent to the introduction of the Companies Act, 2013, the requirement to mandatory transfer a specified percentage of net profit to general reserve has been withdrawn. There is no movement in General Reserve since transfer under the scheme of arrangement.
ii Capital reserve : It is the reserve pertaining to the investment undertaking transferred to the Resultant Company, i.e. BF Investment Ltd., Consequent to the scheme of arrangement approved by High Court of judicature, Mumbai during F.Y. 2009-2010.
iii Capital Redemption Reserve : An erstwhile subsidiary of BF Utilities Ltd. (amalgamated company) had preference capital. At the time of redemption of said preference capital, Redemption reserve was created, which has since got transferred to BF Investment by means of scheme of arrangement.
iv Statutory Reserve Fund : Under sec 45IC(1) of RBI Act, every NBFC has to transfer 20% of it''s post tax profits to a corpus termed as Reserve Fund.
v FVTOCI Equity investment reserve: The Company has selected to recognise changes in the fair value of investment in equity shares in other comprehensive income. These changes are accumulated within the FVTOCI investment reserve within equity. The Company will transfer amounts from the said reserve to retained earnings when the relevant equity shares are de-recognised.
32 Gratuity and other post-employment benefit plans Gratuity plan Unfunded scheme
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan for its employees. The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 and the Scheme framed by the Company. Under the Act, every employee who has completed five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided depends on the employee''s length of service and salary at retirement age. Every employee who has completed five years but not more than fifteen years of service gets a gratuity on departure at 15 days salary (last drawn) for each completed year of service as per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Every employee who has completed fifteen years of service gets a gratuity on departure at one month''s salary (last drawn) for each completed year of service, subject to maximum for 20 month''s salary as per the Scheme of the Company.
Risk exposure and asset-liability matching
Provision of a defined benefit scheme poses certain risks, some of which are detailed hereunder, as companies take on uncertain long-term obligations to make future benefit payments.
1) Liability risks
a) Asset-liability mismatch risk
Risk arises if there is a mismatch in the duration of the assets relative to the liabilities. By matching duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the Company is successfully able to neutralize valuation swings caused by interest rate movements.
b) Discount rate risk
Variations in the discount rate used to compute the present value of the liabilities may seem small, but in practice can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.
c) Future salary escalation and inflation risk
Since price inflation and salary growth are linked economically, they are combined for disclosure purposes. Rising salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher present value of liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management''s discretion may lead to uncertainties in estimating this increasing risk.
2) Asset risks
At present the Company has not opted for any asset plan.
In respect of the above plans, the most recent actuarial valuation of the plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out as at 31 March 2024 by a member firm of the Institute of Actuaries of India. The present value of the defined benefit obligation, and the related current service cost and past service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.
The following table summarises the components of net benefit expense recognised in the statement of profit and loss and the funded status and amounts recognised in the balance sheet for the gratuity plan.
The employees have joined during current financial year hence data for previous year is not available for comparision.
ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:
- The use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments
- The fair value for preference shares is determined using discounted cash flow analysis (KSL Holding Limited, Kalyani Technoforge Limited and Kalyani Financial Services Limited)
- The fair value for loans is determined using discounted cash flow analysis (Loans to BF Utilities Limited, Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise Limited and Nandi Economic Corridor Enterprises Limited).
- The fair value for compulsorily convertible debentures is determined using asset approach (Net Asset Value method).
- The fair value for unquoted equity shares are determined using cost approach.
iii) Valuation process
The Company performs the valuations of assets and liabilities required for financial reporting purposes. The Company appoints external valuation experts whenever the need arises for level 3 fair valuation. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the Company and the valuation experts periodically, in line with the Company''s annual reporting period.
iv) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost
The carrying amounts of such financial assets and liabilities are a reasonable approximation of their fair values.
Presented below is a description of the risks (market risk and liquidity risk) together with a sensitivity analysis, performed annually, of each of these risks based on selected changes in market rates and prices. These analyses reflect management''s view of changes which are reasonably possible to occur over a one-year period.
I Market Risk A Price risk
The Company''s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the Company and classified in the balance sheet whether at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income or at fair value through profit and loss.To manage its price risk arising from investments from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies the portfolio.The majority of Company''s equity investments are publically traded and are included in the BSE and NSE indices.
II Liquidity Risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company''s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. In addition, the Company''s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these debt financing plans.
i) Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities:
III Credit Risk:
The Company is exposed to credit risk from its activity of giving loans and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and other financial instruments.The balances with banks, loans given to corporate bodies, security deposits are subject to low credit risk since the counter-party has strong capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is negligible except for few which are already impaired. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for each loan given.
i) Loss allowance for loans :
The Company''s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.The Company determines the amount of capital required on the basis of annual operating plans and long-term product and other strategic investment plans. The funding requirements are met through equity. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets. The Company does not have any debt.The capital structure of the Company is as follows:

Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present, legal or constructive obligation as a result of
a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a
reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are determined based on the
best estimate required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date. Provisions are reviewed at each
Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect current best estimates.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management''s 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 recognized
as interest expense.
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
Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation. 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 Company
does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements. A disclosure
for a contingent liability is made where there is a possible obligation arising out of past events, the
existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain
future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation arising out of a past
event where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable
estimate of the amount cannot be made.
(t) Paid-up equity
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a
deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
(u) Dividends
The Company recognizes a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the Company
when distribution is authorized and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per
the corporate laws in India, a distribution is authorized when it is approved by the shareholders. A
corresponding amount is recognized directly in equity.
(v) Earnings per share
(i) Basic Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the financial
year. Earnings considered in ascertaining the company''s earnings per share is the net profit for the
period after deducting any attributable tax thereto for the period. The weighted average number of
equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such
as bonus shares, other than the conversion of potential equity shares that have changed the number
of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
(ii) Diluted Earnings per Share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period
attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during
the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(w) Rounding of amounts:
All amounts disclosed in these separate financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the
nearest millions as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.
1B. Standards issued but not yet effective]
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) on 31 March 2023, vide Notification dated 31 March 2023 has issued
Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Amendment Rules, 2022 in consultation with the National Financial
Reporting Authority (NFRA).
The notification states that these rules shall be applicable from 1 April 2023 and would thus be applicable for
the financial year ending 31 March 2024.
The amendments to Ind AS are intended to keep the Ind AS aligned with the amendments made in IFRS.
1. Amendments to Ind AS 1, "Presentation of Financial Statements"
The amendments require companies to disclose their material accounting policies rather than their significant
accounting policies. Accounting policy information, together with other information, is material when it
can reasonably be expected to influence decisions of primary users of general purpose financial statements.
2. Amendments to Ind AS 8, "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors"
The amendments will help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates.
The definition of a change in accounting estimates has been replaced with a definition of accounting
estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are "monetary amounts in financial statements
that are subject to measurement uncertainty". Entities develop accounting estimates if accounting policies
require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty.
3. Amendments to 12, "Income Taxes"
The amendments clarify how companies account for deferred tax on transactions such as leases and
decommissioning obligations. The amendments narrowed the scope of the initial recognition exemption
so that it does not apply to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible
temporary differences.
No significant impact on financial statements of the Company are expected as a result of these amendments.
2. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company''s separate financial statements requires management to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and
the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. This note provides an overview of the
areas that involve a higher degree of judgments or complexities and of items which are more likely to be
materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed.
Detailed information about each of these judgments, estimates and assumptions is mentioned below.
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and
other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the company and that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates
on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions
about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are
beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
1. Fair value measurement of unquoted financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannot be
measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques.
The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not
feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations
of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could
affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. See Note 30 for further disclosures.
2. Deferred Tax
At each balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether the realization of future tax benefits is
sufficiently probable to recognize deferred tax assets. This assessment requires the use of significant
estimates with respect to assessment of future taxable income. The recorded amount of total deferred
tax asset could change if estimates of projected future taxable income or if changes in current tax regulations
are enacted.
