A Oneindia Venture

Notes to Accounts of Cambridge Technology Enterprises Ltd.

Mar 31, 2025

i) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & Contingent Assets:

The Company recognises provisions when there is present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources and reliable estimate can be
made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows to net present value
using an appropriate pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding of the
discount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.

A present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be
made, is disclosed as a contingent liability. Contingent Liabilities are also disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from 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.

Contingent assets are not recognized in financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised.

j) Investments in Subsidiary Company:

Investments in subsidiary companies are measured at cost less impairment

k) Financial instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial
liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to ordeducted from the fair value of the financial assets orfinancial liabilities, as
appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition offinancial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised
immediately in profit or loss.

Financial assets

(i) Financial assets carried at amortised cost

A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

(ii) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting
contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding. Further, in case where the company has made an irrevocable selection based on its business model, for its investments which are classified
as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.

(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.

(iv) The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade
receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. For all otherfinancial 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 recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in
statement of profit or loss.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Classification as debt or equity

Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial
liability and an equity instrument.

Equity Instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments are recorded at the proceeds
received, net of direct issue costs.

Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities such as borrowings are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate
method where the time value of money is significant.

Interest bearing bank loans, overdrafts and unsecured loans are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost usingthe effective interest rate method.
Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the settlement or redemption of borrowings is recognised over the term of the borrowings in the statement of profit
and loss.

Derecognition of financial instruments

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for
derecognition under Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company''s balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is
discharged or cancelled or expires.

Fair value of financial instruments

In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting
date. The methods used to determine fair value include discounted cash flow analysis, available quoted market prices and dealer quotes. All methods of assessing fair value
result in general approximation of value, and such value may or may not be realized.

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 recognized amounts and there is an
intention to settle on a net basis or realize 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 Company or the counterparty.

l) Earnings Per Share :

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during
the period. The Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities in any of the periods presented.

m) Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value, to be cash
equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

n) Segment Reporting - Identification of Segments:

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly
reviewed bythe company''s chief operatingdecision maker to make decisions for which discrete financial information is available. Based on the management approach as defined in Ind AS
108, the chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company''s performance and allocates resources based on an analysis of various performance indicators by business segments and
geographic segments.

o) Leases:

The Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease by assessing whether the fulfilment of a transaction is dependent on the use of a specific asset and whether the
transaction conveys the right to use that asset to the Company in return for payment. Where this occurs, the arrangement is deemed to include a lease and is accounted for either as
finance or operating lease.

As lessee

Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Company, as lessee, has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are
capitalized at the lease''s inception at the fair value of the leased property or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding rental obligations, net of
finance charges, are included in borrowings or other financial liabilities as appropriate. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged
to the profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Leases in which a significant portion ofthe risks and rewards of ownership are not transferred to the Companyas lessee are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating
leases are charged to Statement of profit and loss on a straight line basis over the period ofthe lease unlessthe payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation
to compensate for the lessor''s expected inflationary cost increases.

With effective from 1 April 2019:

As a lessee:

The Company assess whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A 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. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the company assesses whether:

(1) The Contract involves the use of an identified asset;

(2) The Company has substantially all the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and

(3) The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term oftwelve months or
less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over
the term of the lease. Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and lease liabilities includes these
options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement
date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives.

They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the balance lease term of the underlying asset. Right of use assets are evaluated for
recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease
or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of the leases. Lease liabilities are re-measured with a corresponding adjustment to the
related right of use asset if the company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease liability and ROU asset shall be separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments shall be classified as financing cash flows.

p) Rounding off amounts:

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousands as per the requirement of Schedule III, unless otherwise stated.

q) Standards issued but not yet effective:

Recent pronouncements Ministry of Corporate Affairs (“MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as
issued from time to time. For the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards applicable to the Company.

Cost recognition

Costs and expenses are recognised when incurred and have been classified according to their nature.

Costs and expenses are recognised when incurred and have been classified according to their nature. The costs of the Company are broadly categorised in employee benefit expenses, cost
of equipment and software licences, depreciation and amortisation expense and other expenses. Other expenses mainly include fees to external consultants, subcontractors , facility
expenses, travel expenses, communication expenses, bad debts and advances written off, allowance for expected credit losses and doubtful advances (net) and other expenses. Other
expenses are aggregation of costs which are individually not material such as, recruitment and training, misc. expenses, etc.

Sale of Licenses

The Companyearns revenue fromthe sale of software licenses aspartofitschannelpartnership arrangements with leadingtechnology providers Oracle etc. also selling Atlassian Dashboard Hub
Pro -Charts, Reports, Time in Status, Tables Data Center for Jira Software . Under these arrangements, the Company facilitating the resale of software products and licenses to end customers
across various industry segments.

Trade receivables and contract balances

The company classifies the right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as receivable. A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional upon passage of time.

Revenue for fixed price development contracts contracts are recognized as related service are performed. Revenue for fixed price maintenance contracts is recognized on the basis of time
elapsed.

Revenue recognition for fixed price development contracts is based on percentage of completion method. Invoicing to the clients is based on milestones as defined in the contract. This would
result in the timing of revenue recognition being different from the timing of billing the customers.

Revenue recognition for fixed price maintenance contracts is based on utilisation of man power in a particular project duringthe period,which will be according to master serviceagreement or
purchase order or statement of work of respective projects.

In respect of other fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognised using percentage-of-completion method (''POC method'') of accounting with contract costs incurred determining the degree of
completion of the performance obligation

Revenue related to fixed price maintenance and support services contracts where the Company is standing ready to provide services is recognised based on time elapsed mode and revenue is
straight-lined over the period of performance.

Revenue recognition for cost plus contracts is based on cost incurred towards a particular project during the period by adding the profit margin, according to master service agreement or
purchase order or statement of work of respective projects.

Trade receivable are presented net of impairment in the Balance Sheet.

Revenue from subsidiaries is recognised based on transaction price which is at arm''s length.

Contract assets are recognised when there are excess of revenues earned over billings on contracts. Contract assets are classified as unbilled receivables (only act of invoicing is pending) when
there is unconditional right to receive cash, and only passage of time is required, as per contractual terms.

Unearned and deferred revenue ("contract liability") is recognised when there are billings in excess of revenues. The billing schedules agreed with customers include periodic performance based
payments and / or milestone based progress payments. Invoices are payable within contractually agreed credit period.

Income from Software Products/ Licenses

Revenue fromthe sale of user licenses for software applications is recognized upon the transfer of title in the user license, except in the case of multiple-element contracts requiring significant
implementation services, where revenue is recognized as per the percentage of completion method.

Performance obligations and remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount ofthe transaction price yet to be recognized as at theend ofthe reportingperiod andan explanation astowhen
the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the Company has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation
related disclosures forcontracts where the revenue recognized correspondsdirectlywith thevaluetothecustomerofthe entity''s performance completed to date, typicallythose contractswhere
invoicing is on fixed price maintenance contract basis and in cases where the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Remaining
performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustment for
revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency.

34. Employee benefits
Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages etc. and the
expected cost of ex-gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid when there
is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(i) Compensated absences

The leave obligation covers the Company''s liability for earned leave which is unfunded. The company recognizes liabilities for compensated absences, such as earned leave, using
the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial valuations are conducted at each balance sheet date to ensure the liabilities accurately reflect the company''s obligations for accrued
leave.

(ii) Defined contribution plans

The Company has a defined contribution plan, namely the Provident Fund. Contributions are made to the Provident Fund at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations.
These contributions are made to a registered Provident Fund administered by the Government. The Company''s obligation is limited to the amount contributed, and it has no
further contractual or constructive obligations. The contributions made to the fund are recognised as an expense in profit and loss under employee benefit expenses.

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in each assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of
the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the
defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability
recognised in the balance sheet.
iv) Risk exposure

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

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

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

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on
the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate
withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

Note on “Code on Security, 2020"

The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity. The Ministry
of Labour and Employment has released draft rules for the Code on Social Security, 2020 on November 13, 2020, and has invited suggestions from stakeholders which are under
active consideration by the Ministry. The Company will assess the impact and its evaluation once the subject rules are notified and will give appropriate impact in its financial
statements in the period in which, the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published

35. Financial instruments and risk management
Fair values

a) The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other
than in a forced or liquidation sale.

b) The fair value of trade receivables, trade payables, and other current financial assets and liabilities is considered to be equal to their carrying amounts due to their short-term
nature. All such items have been classified under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In cases where items are non-current in nature, their fair value has also been determined
using observable inputs, such as the discounted cash flow method, and accordingly classified as Level 2. Similarly, for unquoted equity instruments where recent information is
insufficient or where a wide range of fair value estimates exists, cost has been considered the best estimate of fair value and classified under Level 2.

c) The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present value determined using forward exchange rates, currency basis spreads between the
respective currencies and interest rate curves.

Set out below, is a comparision by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company''s financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are
reasonable approximation of fair values:

* Fa ir value of instruments is classified in various fair value hierarchies based on the following three levels:

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.

Level 2 - Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).

Level 3 - Inputs are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumptions
that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data. The cost of unquoted
investments included in Level 3 of fair value hierarchy approximate their fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements and the cost represents
estimate of fair value within that range.

Management exercises its best judgment in estimating the fair value of financial instruments. However, all estimation techniques have inherent limitations. Accordingly, the fair
value estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize or pay in actual markettransactions as of the respective reporting dates.
The fair value of financial instruments may also vary subsequent to the reporting date due to changes in market conditions or other factors.

36. Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to market risk (fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, price and interest rate), liquidity risk and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair
value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses the unpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial
performance of the Company.

(A) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Such changes in the values of financial
instruments may result from changes in the foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, credit, liquidity and other market changes.The Company''s exposure to market risk is
primarily on account of foreign currency exchange rate risk.

The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of financial assets and liabilities .

The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held
at 31 March, 2025 and 31 March, 2024.

(i) Foreign currency exchange rate risk

The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income and equity, where any
transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company. Considering the
countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The
Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the trade/other payables, trade/other receivables. The risks primarily relate to
fluctuations in US Dollars against the functional currencies of the Company. The Company''s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material. The
Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.

The foreign exchange rate sensitivity is calculated by aggregation of the net foreign exchange rate exposure and a simultaneous parallel foreign exchange rates shift of the
currencies by 1% against the functional currency of the Company .

The following analysis has been worked out based on the net exposures of the Company as of the date of balance sheet which could affect the statement of profit and loss and
other comprehensive income and equity .

The assumed increase/decrease in interest rate for sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment
(B) Credit Risk

Financial assets of the Company include trade receivables, loans to wholly owned subsidiaries, employee advances, security deposits held with government authorities and
others and bank deposits which represents Company''s maximum exposure to the credit risk.

With respect to credit exposure from customers, the Company has a procedure in place aiming to minimise collection losses. Credit Control team assesses the credit quality of
the customers, their financial position, past experience in payments and other relevant factors.

The carrying amount of trade receivables, loans, advances, deposits, cash and bank balances, bankdeposits and interest receivable on deposits represents company''s maximum
exposure to the credit risk. No other financial asset carry a significant exposure with respect to the credit risk. Bank deposits and cash balances are placed with reputable banks
and deposits are with reputable government, public bodies and others. The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each
customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including default risk associate with the industry and country
in which customers operate. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this
assessment. With respect to other financial assets viz., loans & advances, deposits with government and banks, the credit risk is insignificant since the loans & advances are
given to its wholly owned subsidiary and employees only and deposits are held with government bodies and reputable banks. The credit quality of the financial assets is
satisfactory, taking into account the allowance for credit losses.

Credit risk on trade receivables and other financial assets is evaluated as follows:

38. Contingent liabilities

Trade receivables and contract balances

The company classifies the right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as receivable.

A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional upon passage of time. Revenue for fixed price development contracts contracts are recognized as related service are performed. Revenue for fixed price maintenance contracts is recognized on the basis of time elapsed.

Revenue recognition for fixed price development contracts is based on percentage of completion method. Invoicing to the clients is based on milestones as defined in the contract. This would result in the timing of revenue recognition being different from the timing of billing the customers.

Revenue recognition for fixed price maintenance contracts is based on utilisation of man power in a particular project during the period, which will be according to master service agreement or purchase order or statement of work of respective projects.

In respect of other fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognised using percentage-of-completion method (‘POC method'') of accounting with contract costs incurred determining the degree of completion of the performance obligation

Revenue related to fixed price maintenance and support services contracts where the Company is standing ready to provide services is recognised based on time elapsed mode and revenue is straight-lined over the period of performance.

Revenue recognition for cost plus contracts is based on cost incurred towards a particular project during the period by adding the profit margin, according to master service agreement or purchase order or statement of work of respective projects.

Trade receivable are presented net of impairment in the Balance Sheet.

Revenue from subsidiaries is recognised based on transaction price which is at arm''s length.

Contract assets are recognised when there are excess of revenues earned over billings on contracts. Contract assets are classified as unbilled receivables (only act of invoicing is pending) when there is unconditional right to receive cash, and only passage of time is required, as per contractual terms.

Unearned and deferred revenue (“contract liability”) is recognised when there are billings in excess of revenues. The billing schedules agreed with customers include periodic performance based payments and / or milestone based progress payments. Invoices are payable within contractually agreed credit period.

Income from Software Products/ Licenses

Revenue from the sale of user licenses for software applications is recognized upon the transfer of title in the user license, except in the case of multiple-element contracts requiring significant implementation services, where revenue is recognized as per the percentage of completion method.

Performance obligations and remaining performance obligations

The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the Company has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation related disclosures for contracts where the revenue recognized corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity''s performance completed to date, typically those contracts where invoicing is on fixed price maintenance contract basis and in cases where the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustment for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency.

The Company has made external sales to the following customers meeting the criteria of 10% or more of the entity revenue.

32. Employee benefits Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages etc. and the expected cost of ex-gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

(i) Compensated absences

The leave obligation covers the Company''s liability for earned leave which is unfunded.The company recognizes liabilities for compensated absences, such as earned leave, using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial valuations are conducted at each balance sheet date to ensure the liabilities accurately reflect the company’s obligations for accrued leave.

(ii) Defined contribution plans

The Company has a defined contribution plan, namely the Provident Fund. Contributions are made to the Provident Fund at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. These contributions are made to a registered Provident Fund administered by the Government. The Company''s obligation is limited to the amount contributed, and it has no further contractual or constructive obligations. The contributions made to the fund are recognised as an expense in profit and loss under employee benefit expenses.

(ii) Post- employment obligations

a) Gratuity

The Company provides for gratuity for employees as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses,), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur.

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in each assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

b) Compensated absenses

The company recognizes liabilities for compensated absences, such as earned leave, using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial valuations are conducted at each balance sheet date to ensure the liabilities accurately reflect the company’s obligations for accrued leave.

v) Risk exposure

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

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

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

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straightforward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

Note on “Code on Security, 2020”

The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity. The Ministry of Labour and Employment has released draft rules for the Code on Social Security, 2020 on November 13, 2020, and has invited suggestions from stakeholders which are under active consideration by the Ministry. The Company will assess the impact and its evaluation once the subject rules are notified and will give appropriate impact in its financial statements in the period in which, the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published

33. Financial instruments and risk management Fair values

a) The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

b) The fair value of trade receivables, trade payables and other current financial assets and liabilities is considered to be equal to the carrying amounts of these items due to their short term nature. Where such items are non-current in nature, the same has been classified as Level 3 and fair value determined using discounted cash flow basis. Similarly, unquoted equity instruments where most recent information to measure fair value is insufficient, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements, cost has been considered as the best estimate of fair value.

c) The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present value determined using forward exchange rates, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies and interest rate curves.

Set out below, is a comparision by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company''s financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximation of fair values:

34. Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to market risk (fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, price and interest rate), liquidity risk and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses the unpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company.

(A) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, credit, liquidity and other market changes. The Company’s exposure to market risk is primarily on account of foreign currency exchange rate risk.

The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of financial assets and liabilties .

The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 March, 2024 and 31 March, 2023.

(i) Foreign currency exchange rate risk

The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company. Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries.

The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the trade/other payables, trade/other receivables. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollars against the functional currencies of the Company. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.

The foreign exchange rate sensitivity is calculated by aggregation of the net foreign exchange rate exposure and a simultaneous parallel foreign exchange rates shift of the currencies by 1% against the functional currency of the Company .

The following analysis has been worked out based on the net exposures of the Company as of the date of balance sheet which could affect the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income and equity .

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s debt obligations with floating interest rates. As the Company has certain debt obligations with floating interest rates, exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates are dependent of changes in market interest rates. Management monitors the movement in interest rate and, wherever possible, reacts to material movements in such rates by restructuring its financing arrangement.

As the Company has no significant interest bearing assets, the income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

The assumed increase/decrease in interest rate for sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment

(B) Credit Risk

Financial assets of the Company include trade receivables, loans to wholly owned subsidiaries, employee advances, security deposits held with government authorities and others and bank deposits which represents Company''s maximum exposure to the credit risk.

With respect to credit exposure from customers, the Company has a procedure in place aiming to minimise collection losses. Credit Control team assesses the credit quality of the customers, their financial position, past experience in payments and other relevant factors.

The carrying amount of trade receivables, loans, advances, deposits, cash and bank balances, bank deposits and interest receivable on deposits represents company''s maximum exposure to the credit risk. No other financial asset carry a significant exposure with respect to the credit risk. Bank deposits and cash balances are placed with reputable banks and deposits are with reputable government, public bodies and others. The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including default risk associate with the industry and country in which customers operate. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. With respect to other financial assets viz., loans & advances, deposits with government and banks, the credit risk is insignificant since the loans & advances are given to its wholly owned subsidiary and employees only and deposits are held with government bodies and reputable banks. The credit quality of the financial assets is satisfactory, taking into account the allowance for credit losses.

Credit risk on trade receivables and other financial assets is evaluated as follows:

(iii) Significant estimates and judgements Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets disclosed above are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

(C) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Company’s treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under deposits in banks.

Management monitors cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(iii) Management expects finance cost to be incurred for the year ending 31 March 2024 is Rs 12500.00 thousands.

35. Capital management

Capital management and Gearing Ratio

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders. The primary objective of the company''s capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.

The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is debt divided by total capital. The Company includes within debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings.

In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company''s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements.

32. Employee benefits

(i) Leave obligations

The leave obligation covers the Company''s liability for earned leave which is unfunded.

(ii) Defined contribution plans

The Company has defined contribution plans namely Provident fund. Contributions are made to provident fund at the rate of 12% of basic salary as per regulations. The contributions are made to registered provident fund administered by the Government. The obligation of the Company is limited to the amount contributed and it has no further contractual nor any constructive obligation. The expense recognised during the year towards defined contributions plan is Nil as the same is closed as the company for consistancy continuing to maintain the nonfund provisions based on the report from external acturial valuaer of the company.

(ii) Post- employment obligations

a) Gratuity

The Company provides for gratuity for employees as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The amount of gratuity payable on retirement/termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service. The Company was closed the post retirement gratuity plan with HDFC Life Insurance operated earlier. The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method, which recognises each period of service giving rise to additional unit of employee benefit entitlement and measures each unit separately to build up the final obligation.

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in each assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

v) Risk exposure

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

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

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

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

Note on "Code on Security, 2020"

The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity. The Ministry of Labour and Employment has released draft rules for the Code on Social Security, 2020 on November 13, 2020, and has invited suggestions from stakeholders which are under active consideration by the Ministry. The Company will assess the impact and its evaluation once the subject rules are notified and will give appropriate impact in its financial statements in the period in which, the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published

33. Financial instruments and risk management Fair values

a) The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

b) The fair value of trade receivables, trade payables and other current financial assets and liabilities is considered to be equal to the carrying amounts of these items due to their short term nature. Where such items are non-current in nature, the same has been classified as Level 3 and fair value determined using discounted cash flow basis. Similarly, unquoted equity instruments where most recent information to measure fair value is insufficient, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements, cost has been considered as the best estimate of fair value.

c) The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present value determined using forward exchange rates, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies and interest rate curves.

Set out below, is a comparision by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company''s financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximation of fair values: *Fair value of instruments is classified in various fair value hierarchies based on the following three levels:

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 significant inputs required to fair value an instruments are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instruments is included in level 3.

There has been no change in the valuation methodology for Level 3 inputs during the year. The Company has not classified any material financial instruments under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.

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

(All amounts are in f ''thousands'' except per share data and where otherwise stated)

34. Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to market risk (fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, price and interest rate), liquidity risk and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses the unpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company.

(A) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, trade receivables and trade payables involving foreign currency exposure. The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.

The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of financial assets and liabilties .

The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 March, 2023 and 31 March, 2022.

(i) Foreign currency exchange rate risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the trade/other payables, trade/other receivables and derivative assets/liabilities. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollars against the functional currencies of the Company. The Company''s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s debt obligations with floating interest rates. As the Company has certain debt obligations with floating interest rates, exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates are dependent of changes in market interest rates. Management monitors the movement in interest rate and, wherever possible, reacts to material movements in such rates by restructuring its financing arrangement.

As the Company has no significant interest bearing assets, the income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

The assumed increase/decrease in interest rate for sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment

(B) Credit Risk

Financial assets of the Company include trade receivables, loans to wholly owned subsidiaries, employee advances, security deposits held with government authorities and others and bank deposits which represents Company''s maximum exposure to the credit risk.

With respect to credit exposure from customers, the Company has a procedure in place aiming to minimise collection losses. Credit Control team assesses the credit quality of the customers, their financial position, past experience in payments and other relevant factors.

The carrying amount of trade receivables, loans, advances, deposits, cash and bank balances, bank deposits and interest receivable on deposits represents company''s maximum exposure to the credit risk. No other financial asset carry a significant exposure with respect to the credit risk. Bank deposits and cash balances are placed with reputable banks and deposits are with reputable government, public bodies and others. The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including default risk associate with the industry and country in which customers operate. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. With respect to other financial assets viz., loans & advances, deposits with government and banks, the credit risk is insignificant since the loans & advances are given to its wholly owned subsidiary and employees only and deposits are held with government bodies and reputable banks. The credit quality of the financial assets is satisfactory, taking into account the allowance for credit losses.

Credit risk on trade receivables and other financial assets is evaluated as follows:

(iii) Significant estimates and judgements Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets disclosed above are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

(C) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Company''s treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under deposits in banks.

Management monitors cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(iii) Management expects finance cost to be incurred for the year ending 31 March 2024 is Rs 12500.00 thousands.

35. Capital management

Capital management and Gearing Ratio

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders. The primary objective of the company''s capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is debt divided by total capital. The Company includes within debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings.

In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company''s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings.

No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31 March, 2023 and 31 March, 2022.

Fair value of plan assets — 100% with HDFC Life New Group Unit Linked Plan

Expected contributions to post- employment benefit plans of gratuity for the year ending 31 March 2019 are Rs. 118.64 Lakhs.

iv) Significant estimates and sensitivity Analysis

The sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to changes in key assumptions is:

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change in each assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.

v) Risk exposure

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

Interest rate risk:

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

Salary inflation risk:

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

Demographic risk:

This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

9. Financial instruments and risk management Fair values

a) The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

b) The fair value of trade receivables, trade payables and other current financial assets and liabilities is considered to be equal to the carrying amounts of these items due to their short term nature. Where such items are non-current in nature, the same has been classified as Level 3 and fair value determined using discounted cash flow basis. Similarly, unquoted equity instruments where most recent information to measure fair value is insufficient, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements, cost has been considered as the best estimate of fair value.

c) The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present value determined using forward exchange rates, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies and interest rate curves.

Set out below, is a comparision by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximation of fair values:

*Fair value of instruments is classified in various fair value hierarchies based on the following three levels:

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 significant inputs required to fair value an instruments are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instruments is included in level 3.

There has been no change in the valuation methodology for Level 3 inputs during the year. The Company has not classified any material financial instruments under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.

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

10. Financial risk management

The Company is exposed to market risk (fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, price and interest rate), liquidity risk and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses the unpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company.

(A) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, trade receivables and trade payables involving foreign currency exposure. The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017.The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of financial assets and liabilties .The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 March, 2018 and 31 March, 2017.

(i) Foreign currency exchange rate risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the trade/other payables, trade/other receivables and derivative assets/liabilities. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollars against the functional currencies of the Company. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in US dollar exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company’s profit before tax is due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities.

(ii) Sensitivity

The sensitivity of profit or loss to changes in the exchange rates arises mainly from foreign currency denominated financial instruments and from foreign forward exchange contracts:

The movement in the pre-tax effect is a result of a change in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in US Dollars where the functional currency of the entity is a currency other than US Dollars.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s debt obligations with floating interest rates. As the Company has certain debt obligations with floating interest rates, exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates are dependent of changes in market interest rates. Management monitors the movement in interest rate and, wherever possible, reacts to material movements in such rates by restructuring its financing arrangement.As the Company has no significant interest bearing assets, the income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

Interest rate sensitivity

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Company’s profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:

The assumed increase/decrease in interest rate for sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment

(B) Credit Risk

Financial assets of the Company include trade receivables, loans to wholly owned subsidiaries, employee advances, security deposits held with government authorities and others and bank deposits which represents Company’s maximum exposure to the credit risk.

With respect to credit exposure from customers, the Company has a procedure in place aiming to minimise collection losses. Credit Control team assesses the credit quality of the customers, their financial position, past experience in payments and other relevant factors.

The carrying amount of trade receivables, loans, advances, deposits, cash and bank balances, bank deposits and interest receivable on deposits represents company’s maximum exposure to the credit risk. No other financial asset carry a significant exposure with respect to the credit risk. Bank deposits and cash balances are placed with reputable banks and deposits are with reputable government, public bodies and others. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.

Credit risk on trade receivables and other financial assets is evaluated as follows:

(iii) Significant estimates and judgements Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets disclosed above are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the company’s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.

(C) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Company’s treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under deposits in banks.

Management monitors cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

(i) Financing arrangements: The company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period

(ii) Maturities of Financial liabilities

Contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at :

14. First-time adoption of Ind AS Transition to Ind AS

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

The accounting policies set out in Note 2 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 March, 2018, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017 and in the preparation of an opening Ind AS balance sheet at 01 April 2016 (date of transition). In preparing its opening Ind AS balance sheet, the Company has adjusted the amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with the accounting standards notified under Companies (Accounting standards) Rules, 2006 (as amended) and other relevant provisions of the Act(previous GAAP or Indian GAAP). An explanation on how the transition from previous GAAP to Ind AS has effected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and notes.

Exemptions and Exceptions availed

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

A. Ind AS optional exemptions

(i) Deemed cost

Ind AS 101 permits a first time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its Property, plant & equipment as recognised in the Financial Statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition, after making necessary adjustments for decommissioning liabilities. This exemption can also be used for Intangible assets covered by Ind AS 38. Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its Property, plant & equipment and Intangible assets at their previous GAAP carrying value.

(ii) Impairment of financial assets

The Company has applied the exception related to impairment of financial assets given in Ind AS 101. It has used reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort to determine the credit risk at the date that financial assets were initially recognised and compared that to the credit risk as at 01 April, 2016.

(iii) Investments in subsidiaries

Under previous GAAP, investment in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates were stated at cost and provisions made to recognise the decline, other than temporary. Under Ind AS, the Company has considered their previous GAAP carrying amount as their deemed cost.

(iv) Share based payment transactions

Under previous GAAP, the cost of options granted under the CTE Employee Stock Option Scheme (CTE ESOS) [equity - settled] was recognised using the intrinsic value method. Under Ind AS, the cost of options granted under CTE ESOS is recognised based on the fair value of the options as on the grant date. In terms of the exemptions, the fair value of unvested options as at the date of transition have been accounted for as part of reserves.

B. Ind AS mandatory exceptions

(i) Estimates

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

Ind AS estimates as at 1 April, 2016 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with previous GAAP. The Company made estimates for following items in accordance with Ind AS at the date of transition as these were not required under previous GAAP:-Investment in equity instruments carried at amortised cost-Impairment of financial asset based on expected credit loss model.

(ii) Classification and measurement of Financial Assets

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to assess classification and measurement of financial assets on the basis of the facts and circumstances that exist at the date of transition to Ind AS.

C. Reconciliation between previous GAAP and Ind AS ( as at 31 March 2017 and 1 April 2016)

Ind AS 101 requires an entity to reconcile equity, total comprehensive income and cash flows for prior periods.

D. Notes to first-time adoption:

1) Fair valuation of forward contracts:

Under previous GAAP, the premium or discount arising at the inception of a forward exchange contract should be amortised as expense or income over the life of the contract. Any profit or loss arising on cancellation or renewal of such a forward exchange contract should be recognised as income or as expense for the period.Under Ind AS 109, such forward contracts have to be carried at fair value through profit and loss. The profit for the year ended 31 March 2017 has increased by Rs. 5,767.49 thousands on account of fair value gain.

2) Deferred tax

Previous GAAP requires deferred tax accounting using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Ind AS 12 requires entities to account for deferred taxes using the Balance Sheet approach, which focuses on differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the Balance Sheet and its tax base. It requires recognition of tax consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax base. As a result, Deferred tax asset has been increased by Rs. 13,653.30 thousands as at 1 April 2016 and Rs. 29,724.30 thousands as at 31 March 2017 with a corresponding increase in retained earnings and net profit respectively.

3) Remeasurements of post-employment benefit obligations

Under Ind AS, remeasurements i.e. Actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets , excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability are recognised in other comprehensive income instead of profit or loss. Under the previous GAAP, these remeasurements were forming part of the profit or loss for the year. There is no impact on the total equity as at 31 March 2017.

4) Share based payments

Under the previous GAAP, expenditure relating to Employee stock option was valued as per Intrinsic value method. Under Ind AS, expenses are to be accounted as per Fair value method. Accordingly, expenditure of Rs. 4035.35 thousands was accounted during the year ended 31 March 2017 with a corresponding increase in net profit.

5) Expected credit loss on trade receivables

As per Ind AS 109, expected credit loss is calculated for trade receivables using the lifetime cycle approach. Accordingly, an amount of Rs. 472.50 thousands and Rs. 14.50 thousands is provided as on 1 April 2016 and 31 March 2017 respectively with a corresponding impact on retained earnings and net profit respectively.

6) Other comprehensive income

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognized in a period should be included in the profit or loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognised in profit or loss but are shown in the statement of profit or loss as ‘other comprehensive income’ includes remeasurements of defined benefit plans. The concept of ‘other comprehensive income’ did not exist under previous GAAP.

7) Other equity

Retained earnings as at April 1 2016 has been adjusted consequent to the above Ind AS transition adjustments on the date of transition.

8) Cash flow from financing activities

Other bank balances (disclosed under Note 10) are not considered as part of cash and cash equivalents under Ind AS and the movement of other bank balances amounting to 22532.24 thousands is the variance in net increase/ decrease in cash and cash equivalents as at 31 March 2017.
