(ii) Provision for price difference

The Company recognizes the price difference payable
to parties, where settlement is pending for final
negotiation. It is provided on the basis of best estimates
and management''s assessment, considering the
past trend and various other factors. These provisions
are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted with
respective element with statement of profit and loss
from the adequacy and reasonability point of view.

Contract balances

(iii) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for
goods sold in the ordinary course of business and reflect
the company''s unconditional right to consideration (i.e.
payment is due only on the passage of time).

Trade receivables are recognized initially at the
transaction price as they do not contain significant
financing components. The Company holds the
trade receivables with the objective of collecting the
contractual cash flows and therefore measures them
subsequently at amortized cost using the effective
interest method, less loss allowance.

For trade receivables, the Company applies the
simplified approach required by Ind AS 109, which
requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from
initial recognition of the receivables.

f) Retirement and other employee benefits

Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund and
employee''s state insurance is a defined contribution
scheme. The Company has no obligation, other than the
contribution payable to the provident fund and employee''s
state insurance. The Company recognizes contribution
payable to the provident fund and employee''s state
insurance scheme as expenditure when an employee
renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the

exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable
to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the
contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid
exceeds the contribution due for services received before
the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset
to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a
reduction in future payment or a cash refund.

The Company operates three defined benefit plans for its
employees i.e. gratuity, long service award and benevolent
fund. The costs of providing benefits under these plans are
determined on the basis of actuarial valuation at each year-
end. Actuarial valuation is carried out for these plans using
the projected unit credit method.

Re-measurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses,
the effect of the asset ceiling, 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 recognized immediately
in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to
retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they
occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to profit or loss
in subsequent periods.

Past service costs are recognised in statement of profit or 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 recognizes
the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as
an expense in the statement of profit and loss:

• Service costs comprising current service costs, past-
service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and
non-routine settlements; and

• Net interest expense or income

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within
the next 12 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 year-end. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken
to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The
Company presents the entire leaves as a current liability in the
balance sheet since it does not have an unconditional right
to defer its settlement for 12 months after the reporting date.

g) Suppliers credit / vendor bill discounting

The Company enters into deferred payment arrangements
(acceptances) whereby banks/financial institutions initially
make payment to Company''s suppliers for raw materials,
goods and services directly, while the Company continues
to recognize the liability till settlement with the bank/financial
institution at a later date, which is normally effected within
a period of 90 days. The arrangement provides working
capital timing benefits and the economic substance of the
transaction is determined to be financing in nature. These
arrangements are in the nature of credit extended in normal
operating cycle and these arrangements are recognized
as ''Supplier''s acceptances'' as a separate line item in
the Balance Sheet.

9. Income Tax

The Company is subject to income tax in India on the basis of its financial statements. The Company can claim tax exemptions/ deductions
under specific sections of the Income Tax Act, 1961 subject to fulfilment of prescribed conditions, as may be applicable.The Company
during the year ended March 31, 2020 had opted for the new tax regime under Section 115BAA of the Act, which provides a domestic
company with an option to pay tax at a rate of 22% (effective rate of 25.168%). The lower rate shall be applicable subject to certain
conditions, including that the total income should be computed without claiming specific deduction or exemptions.

As per the tax laws, capital loss can be carried forward for a maximum period of eight assessment years immediately succeeding the
assessment year to which the loss pertains.

Notes:

(i) The receivables is ''unbilled'' because the Company has not yet issued an invoice; however, the balance has been included under
trade receivables (as opposed to contract assets) because it has an unconditional right to consideration.

(ii) The carrying amounts of the trade receivables includes receivables amounting to Rs. 12,327.96 lakhs (March 31, 2024: Rs. 15,078.60
lakhs) which are subject to a factoring arrangement. Under this arrangement, the Company has transferred the relevant receivables
to the factor in exchange for cash and is prevented from selling or pledging the receivables. However, the Company has retained
substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership through late payment and credit risk. The Company therefore continues
to recognise the transferred assets in their entirety in its balance sheet. The amount repayable under the factoring agreement is
presented as unsecured borrowing. The Company''s accounting policy is to interpret ''held to collect'' on the basis of the accounting
treatment and the continued recognition of the receivables on the balance sheet. The Company therefore considers that the held to
collect business model remains appropriate for these receivables and hence continues measuring them at amortised cost.

(iii) Trade receivables is net off provision for turnover discount amounting to Rs. 2,384.81 lakhs (March 31, 2024: Rs. 2,780.52 lakhs)
since the Company has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and there is an intention to settle on a net basis
or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Had this amount not been netted off from trade receivables and disclosed
under other current liabilities, the closing amount of other current liabilities would have been Rs. 3,156.41 lakhs (March 31, 2024: Rs.
3,208.45 lakhs).

(iv) No trade receivable are due from directors or other officers of the Company either severally or jointly with any other person. Nor any
trade or other receivable are due from firms or private companies respectively in which any director is a partner, a director or a member.

(v) Management considers that in substance the factor collects the amounts receivable on the entity''s behalf and retains the cash
in settlement of the separate financing transaction. The Company therefore presents the cash inflows received from the factor as
financing cash inflows and the subsequent payments by the debtor as both operating cash inflows and financing cash outflows.

c) Share based payment Reserve

The reserve is used to recognise the grant date fair value of options issued to employees under the Company''s Employees Stock
Option Scheme, 2017. Refer to note 45 for further details of the plan.

d) Capital Reserve

Capital Reserve represents the amount forfeited against warrants and application money received in earlier years. Utilisation of
reserve will be as per the provisions of the relevant statute.

e) Capital Redemption Reserve

Capital Redemption Reserve represents reserve created on account of redemption of preference shares. Utilisation of reserve will be
as per the provisions of the relevant statute.

f) Amalgamation reserve

Amalgamation reserve is on account of merger done by the Company in earlier years. This reserve can be utilised as per the provisions
of Companies Act, 2013.

g) General reserve

General Reserve is a free reserve. It represents appropriation of profit by the Company. General reserve is created by a transfer from
one component of equity to another and is not an item of other comprehensive income.

Notes:

(i) The Company has a cash credit account facility from banks and the amount outstanding as at year end is Rs. Nil (March 31, 2024:
Rs. Nil) carrying rate of interest ranging from 8.13% to 9.40% (March 31, 2024: 8.50% to 9.15%). The Company also has a facility of
working capital demand loans from banks and amount outstanding as at year end is Rs. Nil (March 31, 2024 : Rs. Nil) carrying rate of
interest 7.80% to 9.74% (March 31, 2024: 7.47% to 8.95%). The security against these facilities are as follows:

(a) First pari passu charge on entire current assets of the Company.

(b) Second pari passu charge to be shared with other lenders on all existing and future movable fixed assets of the Company
situated at Malanpur, Jamshedpur, Yamuna Nagar and Chennai.

(c) Second pari passu charge on all immovable fixed assets of the Company situated at Malanpur, Jamshedpur, Yamuna Nagar
and Chennai to be shared with other secured working capital lenders.

(ii) Factored receivables from bank (Unsecured) have no interest cost to the Company.

(iii) The Company has borrowings from banks and financial institutions on the basis of security of current assets. The quarterly returns or
statements of current assets filed by the Company with banks and financial institutions are in agreement with the books of accounts.

(i) . The balance includes vendor''s invoices factored amounting to Rs. 1,008.69 lakhs (March 31, 2024: Rs. Nil)) which represents

receivable buyout facility offered by the bank to the vendors of the Company (''the factoring arrangement") and is payable within 90
days without any additional credit period. The factoring arrangement is unsecured under short-term borrowing facilities obtained
from bank and are interest bearing. Under the factoring arrangement, the Bank pays the Company''s suppliers upfront upon factoring
of the vendor''s invoices by the Company and in return, the Company receives an early payment discount from its suppliers. In the
case of default, the bank shall have a recourse on the supplier. The factoring arrangement provide the entity''s suppliers with early
payment terms, compared to the related invoice payment due date.

(ii) . There were no non-cash changes in the carrying amount of factoring arrangements in either period.

(iii) Information as required to be furnished as per section 22 of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006
(MSMED Act) for the year ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 is given below. This information has been determined to the
extent such parties have been identified on the basis of information available with the Company:

(i) The revenue is measured by the Company at the fair value of consideration received/ receivable from its customers and in determining
the transaction price for the sale of finished goods, the Company considers the effect of various factors such as price differences and
volume-based discounts, rebates and other promotion incentive schemes ("trade schemes”) provided to the customers. Adequate
provisions have been made for such price differences, and trade schemes, with a corresponding impact on the revenue. Accordingly,
revenue for the current year is net of price differences, trade schemes, rebates, discounts, etc.

(ii) Revenue from sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when control of the inventory is transferred to the customer, generally
on delivery of the products.

(iii) The Company has categorised its revenue into product mix and market mix. Product mix comprises of revenue from existing products
and new products and market mix comprises of revenue from existing markets and new markets. The Company considers After¬
market sales as revenue from new market.

Defined benefit plans

Gratuity

The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees as per The Payment
of Gratuity Act, 1972. The plan provides for a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on
termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15 days salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon
completion of five years of service. The scheme is funded with an Insurance Company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy. The
Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in the future based on a year-end actuarial valuation.

Long service award

Under long term service award, the employee is entitled to a fixed amount on completion of ten years and fifteen years of service. The
scheme of long term service award is unfunded.

The defined benefit plans expose the Company to a number of actuarial risks as below:

(i) Investment risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference
to government bond yields. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

(ii) Interest rate risk: A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an
increase in the value of plan assets.

(iii Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan
participants. As such, an increase in salary of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

(iv) Longevity risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the
mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants
will increase the plan''s liability.

The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an 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.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

The estimates of rate of escalation in salary considered in actuarial valuation are after taking into account inflation, seniority,
promotion and other relevant factors including supply and demand in the employment market. The above information is as certified
by the Actuary.

Discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian Government bonds as at the balance sheet date for the estimated
term of the obligations.

The sensitivity analyses above have been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefit obligation
as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period.

40. Segment Reporting

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing of Automotive suspension products which includes Parabolic/ Tapered leaf
spring and Lift axle which constitute single reporting business segment. The entire operations are governed by the same set of risk and
returns. Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind AS 108, the management i.e. Managing Director and CEO also reviews and
measures the operating results taking the whole business as one segment and accordingly make decision about the resource allocation.
In view of the same, separate segment information is not required to be given as per the requirements of Ind AS 108 "Operating Segments”.

The Company operates primarily in India and has presence in international markets as well. Its business is accordingly aligned
geographically, catering to two markets i.e. India and Outside India. For customers located outside India, the Company has assessed
that they carry same risk and rewards. The Company has considered domestic and exports markets and accordingly disclosed these as
separate. Addtional information required under Ind AS 108:

All other assets used in the Company business are located in India and are used to cater both the customers (within India and outside
India), accordingly the total cost incurred during the period to acquire the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets has not
been disclosed.

41. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent
liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying
amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most
significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

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.

Recording of price adjustments and their impact on revenue recognition

Revenue is measured by the Company at the transaction price i.e. amount of consideration received/receivable from its customers. In
determining the transaction price for the sale of products, the Company considers the effects of various factors such as volume-based
discounts, price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on various parameters like negotiations based on savings on
materials/ share of business, rebates etc. provided to the customers. The Company''s business also requires passing on these credits
related to price adjustments and others to the customers for the sales made by the Company. The Company, at the year end, has provided
for such price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on agreed terms, negotiations undertaken, commercial considerations
and other factors. This requires significant judgement and estimate in calculating the price adjustments to be recorded under Trade
payables/adjusted with Trade receivables as at the year end.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations.
An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the
determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its
long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each
reporting date. The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans, the
management considers the interest rates of government bonds. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those
mortality tables tend to change only at interval. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates.
Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 36.

Property, plant and equipment

The management has estimated based on the independent assessment and past experience the useful life and residual value of property,
plant and equipment. Management believes that the assigned useful lives and residual value are reasonable and the estimates and
assumptions made to determine depreciation are critical to the Company''s financial position and performance.

Recoverability of loans and investments to subsidiaries

Loans to subsidiaries are carried out at amortised cost and investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost. At each balance sheet date,
the management assesses the indicators of impairment of such loans and investments. This requires assessment of several external and
internal factors including capitalisation rate, key assumption used in discounted cash flow models (such as revenue growth, unit price and
discount rates) which may affect the carrying value of loans and investments in subsidiaries.

Taxation

In preparing financial statements, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The
Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The uncertain tax
positions are measured at the amount expected to be paid to taxation authorities when the Company determines that the probable outflow
of economic resources will occur. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded,
such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made.
Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the
likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS.
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated
reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of
money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows. In the normal course of business, contingent
liabilities may arise from obligation or other claim against the Company which are very difficult to quantify reliably and such obligation are
treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements.

43. Capital management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, and all other equity reserves attributable
to the equity holders of the Company. 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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return
capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a net debt to equity ratio, which includes debts divided
by total equity.

Notes:

(i) For the calculation of net debt to equity ratio, the Company has not considered supplier''s acceptances in net debts amounting to Rs.
21,767.27 (March 31, 2024: Rs. 12,292.39 lakhs).

(ii) The net debt to equity ratio for the current year has decreased from 9.24% to 13.00% majorly on account of decrease in the amount
of factored receivables and increase in cash and cash equivalents.

44. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, lease liabilities, trade and other
payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets
include investments, loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations.

The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed
to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a
finance department that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior
professionals working to manage the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company are

accountable to the Board of Directors. This process provides assurance to Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial
risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risk are identified, measured and managed in
accordance with Company''s policies and Company''s risk objective. In the event of crisis caused due to external factors, the management
assesses the recoverability of its assets, maturity of its liabilities to factor it in cash flow forecast to ensure there is enough liquidity in
these situations through internal and external source of funds. These forecast and assumptions are reviewed by Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:"

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as commodity risk. Financial
instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and deposits.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s
long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

(ii) Foreign currency 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 Company''s
operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). The Company''s profit and loss is not
sensitive to reasonable changes in the foreign curreny rates.

(iii) Commodity price risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing purchases of
steel which is a volatile product and is major component of end product. The prices in these purchase contracts are linked to the
price of raw steel and demand supply matrix. However, at present, the Company do not hedge its raw material procurements, as
the price of the final product of the Company also vary with the price of steel which mitigate the risk of price volatility.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a
financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing
activities, including deposits with banks, loans given and other financial instruments. Management has a credit policy in place and
the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk
management. The major customers of the Company are original equipment manufacturers (OEM''s) which have a defined period for
payment of receivables and from related party, and the balance as at the year end majorly includes balance from one OEM customer.
Hence, the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receviables as low. At March 31, 2025, approximately
92% (March 31, 2024: 95%) of all the receivables outstanding were from OEMs and related party.

For trade receivables, the Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track
changes in credit risk, but instead recognizes a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company uses a
provision matrix to calculate ECL for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of customers
that have similar loss patterns. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of financial assets
disclosed in note 11.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from loans given, balances with banks is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the
Company''s policy. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits with the banks
with high credit ratings. The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2025
is the carrying amounts as disclosed in Note 6, 7, 12 and 13.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The
Company monitors its risk of a shortage of funds by doing liquidity planning. The Company''s objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, cash credits and advance payment terms.

50. Summary of other accounting policies:

c) Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as

current when it is:

- Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

- Held primarily for the purpose of trading

- Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or

- Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:

- It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle.

- It is held primarily for the purpose of trading.

- It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

d) Foreign currencies

Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in
which the Company operates (''the functional currency''). The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupee (INR), which is the
Company''s functional and presentation currency.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are recorded, on initial recognition in the functional currency, by applying to the foreign currency
amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at
the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the
dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange
rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non- monetary items measured at fair
value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item.

e) Investment property

Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs and where applicable borrowing costs.
Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset''s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the expenditure will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and
maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the
replaced part is derecognised. The investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its useful life.

f) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are
carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are
not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

The useful lives of the intangible assets are assessed as either finite or infinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that
the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortization period and amortization method of the intangible asset with a useful finite life
are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption
of future economic benefits embodied in the assets are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and
are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the
statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another assets.

Software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of five years.

An intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits
are expected from its use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference
between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when
the asset is derecognized.

g) Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial
period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset. All other borrowing
costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing cost includes interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with
the borrowing of funds and charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent
regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing cost.

h) Impairment of non-financial asset

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists,
or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s
recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or cash-generating units'' (CGU) net selling price and its value in use. The recoverable
amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those
from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is
considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining net selling price,
recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation
model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or
other available fair value indicators.

The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for
each of the Company''s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover
a period of four to five years. For longer periods, a long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after
the forecast period. To estimate cash flow projections beyond periods covered by the most recent budgets/forecasts, the Company
extrapolates cash flow projections in the budget using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, unless an increasing
rate can be justified. In any case, this growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the products, industries, or
country or countries in which the Company operates, or for the market in which the asset is used.

A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset''s
recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset
does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had
no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless
the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.

Impairment losses on non-financial asset, including impairment on inventories, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

i) Warranty Obligations

The Company generally provides for warranties for general repair of defects. These warranties are assurance-type warranties under
Ind AS 115, which are accounted for under Ind AS 37 (Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets), consistent with its
current practice. The Company adjust the transaction price for the time value of money where the period between the transfer of the
promised goods or services to the customer and payment by customer exceed one year.

j) Significant Financing Components

Mar 31, 2024

(ii) There are no contractual obligations to purchase, construct or develop investment property or for repairs, maintenance or enhancements.

(iii) The investment property is leased to tenant under operating lease with rent payable monthly. Lease income from operating lease where the company is a lessor is recognised as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. There are no other variable lease payments that depends on an index or rate.

(iv) There are no minimum lease payments receivable on the lease of investment property.

The company obtains independent valuations for its investment property at least annually. The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market for similar properties.

The fair value of investment property has been determined by a registered valuer as defined under rule 2 of Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules, 2017.

9 Income Tax

The Company is subject to income tax in India on the basis of its financial statements. The Company can claim tax exemptions/ deductions under specific sections of the Income Tax Act, 1961 subject to fulfilment of prescribed conditions, as may be applicable. The Company during the year ended March 31, 2020 had opted for the new tax regime under Section 115BAA of the Act, which provides a domestic company with an option to pay tax at a rate of 22% (effective rate of 25.17%). The lower rate shall be applicable subject to certain conditions, including that the total income should be computed without claiming specific deduction or exemptions. As per the tax laws, capital loss can be carried forward for a maximum period of eight assessment years immediately succeeding the assessment year to which the loss pertains.

The company has recognised deferred tax assets on carried forward short-term capital loss. The loss relates to sale of land in the year 2021, acquired in year 2018, situated at Indore, Madhya Pradesh. The company has concluded that the deferred tax assets will be recoverable using the estimated future taxable income based on the approved business plans. The losses can be carried forward for a period of 8 years as per local tax regulations and the company expects to recover the losses.

The company offsets tax assets and liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority.

The amount repayable under the bill discounting arrangement is presented as unsecured borrowing. The Company therefore continues to recognise the transferred assets and liability in its standalone financial statements and considers that the held to collect business model remains appropriate for these receivables and hence continues measuring them at ammortised cost. Also refer note 16.

32(b) Corporate social responsibility expenditure

As per the provisions of section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013, the Company has to incur at least 2% of average net profits of the preceding three financial years towards Corporate Social Responsibility ("CSR”). Accordingly, a CSR committee has been formed for carrying out CSR activities as per the Schedule VII of the Companies Act, 2013. The Company has contributed a sum of Rs. 370.30 Lakhs (March 31, 2023: Rs. 316.79 Lakhs) towards this cause and charged the same to the Statement of Profit And Loss.

35 Earnings per share (EPS)

Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential equity shares into equity shares.

Options granted to employees under the ESOP Scheme (referred as Company''s Employee Stock Option Scheme, 2017) are considered to be potential equity shares. They have been included in the determination of diluted earnings per share to the extent to which they are dilutive. The options have not been included in the determination of basic earnings per share. Details relating to the options are set out in note 45.

36 Employee benefits

Defined contribution plan

The Company provides provident fund benefits for eligible employees as per applicable regulations wherein both employees and the Company make monthly contributions at a specified percentage of the eligible employee''s salary.The only amounts included in the balance sheet are those relating to the prior months contributions that were not due to be paid until after the end of the reporting period. The expense recognised during the year towards contribution to provident and other fund is:

Defined benefit plans Gratuity

The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees as per The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The plan provides for a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment of an amount equivalent to 15 days salary payable for each completed year of service. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. The scheme is funded with an Insurance Company in the form of a qualifying insurance policy. The Company accounts for the liability for gratuity benefits payable in the future based on a year-end actuarial valuation.

Long service award

Under long term service award, the employee is entitled to a fixed amount on completion of ten years and fifteen years of service. The scheme of long term service award is unfunded.

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting period is 9.08 years (March 31, 2023: 10.23 years)

The defined benefit plans expose the Company to a number of actuarial risks as below:

(i) Investment risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to government bond yields. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

(ii) Interest rate risk: A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability. However, this will be partially offset by an increase in the value of plan assets.

(iii) Salary risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in salary of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

(iv) Longevity risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an 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.

The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the prior period.

The estimates of rate of escalation in salary considered in actuarial valuation are after taking into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors including supply and demand in the employment market. The above information is as certified by the Actuary.

Discount rate is based on the prevailing market yeilds of Indian Government bonds as at the balance sheet date for the estimated terms of the obligations.

The sensitivity analysis above have been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefit obligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period.

41 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Recording of price adjustments and their impact on revenue recognition

Revenue is measured by the Company at the transaction price i.e. amount of consideration received/receivable from its customers. In determining the transaction price for the sale of products, the Company considers the effects of various factors such as volume-based discounts, price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on various parameters like negotiations based on savings on materials/ share of business, rebates etc. provided to the customers. The Company''s business also requires passing on these credits related to price adjustments and others to the customers for the sales made by the Company. The Company, at the year end, has provided for such price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on agreed terms, negotiations undertaken, commercial considerations and other factors. This requires significant judgement and estimate in calculating the price adjustments to be recorded as at the year end.

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.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 36.

Taxation

In preparing financial statements, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The uncertain tax positions are measured at the amount expected to be paid to taxation authorities when the Company determines that the probable outflow of economic resources will occur. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS. A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows. In the normal course of business, contigent liabilities may arise from obligation or other claim against the company which are very difficult to quantify reliably and such obligation are treated as contigent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements.

43 Capital management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. 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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which includes both long-term and short-term debts (including current maturities) plus amount payable for purchase of property, plant and equipment divided by Capital and net debt.

44 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations.

The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a finance department that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior professionals working to manage the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company are accountable to the Board of Directors. This process provides assurance to Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risk are identified, measured and managed in accordance with Company''s policies and Company''s risk objective. In the event of crisis caused due to external factors, the management assesses the recoverability of its assets, maturity of its liabilities to factor it in cash flow forecast to ensure there is enough liquidity in these situations through internal and external source of funds. These forecast and assumptions are reviewed by Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and deposits.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

(ii) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of 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 Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). The Company''s profit and loss is not sensitive to reasonable changes in the foreign curreny rates.

(iii) Commodity price risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing purchases of steel which is a volatile product and is major component of end product. The prices in these purchase contracts are linked to the price of raw steel and demand supply matrix. However, at present, the Company do not hedge its raw material procurements, as the price of the final product of the Company also vary with the price of steel which mitigate the risk of price volatility.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The major customers of the Company are original equipment manufacturers (OEM''s) which have a defined period for payment of receivables and from related party, and the balance as at the year end majorly includes balance from one OEM customer. Hence, the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receviables as low. At March 31, 2024, approximately 95% (March 31, 2023: 98%) of all the receivables outstanding were from OEMs and related party.

For trade receivables, the Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognizes a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company uses a provision matrix to calculate ECL for trade receivables. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of customers that have similar loss patterns. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of financial assets disclosed in note 11.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from loans given, balances with banks is managed by the company''s treasury department in accordance with the company''s policy. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the company generally invests in deposits with the banks with high credit ratings. The company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2024 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in Note 6, 7, 12 and 13.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company monitors its risk of a shortage of funds by doing liquidity planning. The Company''s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, cash credits and advance payment terms.

45 Share based payments

The Company formulated an ESOP Scheme (referred as Company''s Employee Stock Option Scheme, 2017) in accordance with SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits) Regulation, 2014, which was duly approved in the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders of the Company on August 1, 2017 and the Company also got in-principle approval from both NSE and BSE dated March 20, 2018 and March 27, 2018 respectively in respect of the said Scheme. Under the ESOP Scheme, the eligible employees shall be granted employee Stock Options which will be exercisable into equal number of equity shares of Rs. 1 each of the Company. The fair value of the share options is estimated at the grant date using Black Scholes option pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the share options were granted.

(iii) Wilful defaulter: The Company has not been declared wilful defaulter by any bank or financial institution or government or any government authority.

(iv) Compliance with number of layers of companies: The Company has complied with the number of layers prescribed under clause (87) of section 2 of the Act read with Companies (Restriction on number of Layers) Rules, 2017, and there are no companies beyond the specified layers.

(vii) Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment, intangible assets: The Company has not revalued its property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets) or intangible assets or both during the current or previous year.

(viii) Registration of charges or satisfaction with Registrar of Companies: The Company does not have any charges or satisfaction which is yet to be registered with ROC beyond the statutory period.

(ix) Details of crypto currency or virtual currency: The Company has not traded or invested in crypto currency or virtual currency during the financial year.

(x) Utilisation of borrowed funds and share premium: The Company has not advanced or loaned or invested funds to any other persons or entities, including foreign entities (Intermediaries) with the understanding that the Intermediary shall:

(a) directly or indirectly lend or invest in other persons or entities identified in any manner whatsoever by or on behalf of the company (Ultimate Beneficiaries) or;

(b) provide any guarantee, security or the like to or on behalf of the Ultimate Beneficiaries.

(b) provide any guarantee, security or the like on behalf of the Ultimate Beneficiaries.

(xii) Title deeds of immovable properties not held in name of the Company: The title deeds of all the immovable properties (other than properties where the Company is the lessee and the lease agreements are duly executed in favour of the lessee), as disclosed in Note 3 and Note 3(b) to the financial statements, are held in the name of the Company, except as disclosed in Note 3(ii) to the financial statements.

(xiii) Utilisation of borrowings availed from bank and financial institutions: The borrowings obtained by the company from bank and financial institutions have been applied for the purposes for which such loans were taken.

(xiv) Borrowing secured against current assets: The company has borrowings from banks and financial institutions on the basis of security of current assets. The quarterly returns or statements of current assets filed by the company with banks and financial institutions are in agreement with the books of accounts.

48. Summary of other accounting policies:

a) Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset is treated as current when it is:

- Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

- Held primarily for the purpose of trading

- Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or

- Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:

- It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle.

- It is held primarily for the purpose of trading.

- It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

- There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.

b) Foreign currencies

Items included in the financial statements of the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates (''the functional currency''). The financial statements are presented in

Indian Rupee (INR), which is the Company''s functional and presentation currency.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are recorded, on initial recognition in the functional currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.

Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non- monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item.

c) Investment property

Investment property is measured initially at its cost, including related transaction costs and where applicable borrowing costs. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset''s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintennace costs are expensed when incurred. When part of an investment property is replaced, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its useful life.

d) Intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized

development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is reflected in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which the expenditure is incurred.

The useful lives of the intangible assets are assessed as either finite or infinite.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortization period and amortization method of the intangible asset with a useful finite life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the assets are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another assets.

Software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of five years.

An intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal (i.e., at the date the recipient obtains control) or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognized.

e) Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the respective asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur. Borrowing cost includes interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds and charged to Statement of Profit & Loss. Borrowing cost also includes exchange differences to the extent regarded as an adjustment to the borrowing cost.

f) Impairment of non-financial asset

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the

higher of an asset''s or cash-generating units'' (CGU) net selling price and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining net selling price, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.

The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company''s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of four to five years. For longer periods, a long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the forecast period. To estimate cash flow projections beyond periods covered by the most recent budgets/forecasts, the Company extrapolates cash flow projections in the budget using a steady or declining growth rate for subsequent years, unless an increasing rate can be justified. In any case, this growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the products, industries, or country or countries in which the Company operates, or for the market in which the asset is used.

For assets excluding goodwill and intangible assets having indefinite life, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the asset''s or CGU''s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset''s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is

recognized in the statement of profit and loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.

Impairment losses on non-financial asset, including impairment on inventories, are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

g) Investment

Investments, which are readily realizable and intended to be held for not more than one year from the date on which such investments are made, are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as long-term investments.

On initial recognition, all investments are measured at cost. The cost comprises purchase price and directly attributable acquisition charges such as brokerage, fees and duties. If an investment is acquired, or partly acquired, by the issue of shares or other securities, the acquisition cost is the fair value of the securities issued. If an investment is acquired in exchange for another asset, the acquisition is determined by reference to the fair value of the asset given up or by reference to the fair value of the investment acquired, whichever is more clearly evident.<

39 Segment Reporting

Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way the Company report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing of Automotive suspension which includes Parabolic/ Tapered leaf spring and Lift axle which constitute single reporting business segment. The entire operations are governed by the same set of risk and returns. Based on the “management approach” as defined in Ind AS 108, the management also reviews and measures the operating results taking the whole business as one segment and accordingly make decision about the resource allocation. In view of the same, separate segment information is not required to be given as per the requirements of Ind AS 108 on “Operating Segments”. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the significant accounting policies.

The analysis of geographical segment is based on the geographical location of the customers. The Company operates primarily in India and has presence in international markets as well. Its business is accordingly aligned geographically, catering to two markets i.e. India and Outside India. For customers located outside India, the Company has assessed that they carry same risk and rewards. The Company has considered domestic and exports markets as geographical segments and accordingly disclosed these as separate segments. The geographical segments considered for disclosure are as follows:

- Sales within India include sales to customers located within India.

- Sales outside India include sales to customers located outside India.

The following is the distribution of the Company revenue of operations by geographical market, regardless of where the goods were produced:

Sales to customers generating more than 10% of total revenue aggregates to Rs. 1,11,967.47 lakhs (March 31, 2022 Rs.59,932.29 lakhs )

Trade receivables from customers generating more than 10% of total revenue aggregates to Rs. 2,582.53 lakhs (March 31, 2022: Rs. 5,644.62 lakhs).

The trade receivable information above is based on the location of the customers.

All other assets (other than trade receivable) used in the Company business are located in India and are used to cater both the customers (within India and outside India), accordingly the total cost incurred during the period to acquire the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets has not been disclosed

40 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Recording of price adjustments and their impact on revenue recognition

Revenue is measured by the Company at the transaction price i.e. amount of consideration received/receivable from its customers. In determining the transaction price for the sale of products, the Company considers the effects of various factors such as volume-based discounts, price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on various parameters like negotiations based on savings on materials/ share of business, rebates etc provided to the customers. The Company''s business also requires passing on these credits related to price adjustments and others to the customers for the sales made by the Company. The Company, at the year end, has provided for such price adjustments to be passed on to the customers based on agreed terms, negotiations undertaken, commercial considerations and other factors. This requires significant judgement and estimate in calculating the price adjustments to be recorded as at the year end.

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.

Share-based payments

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. For the measurement of the fair value of equity-settled transactions with employees at the grant date, the Company uses a Black Scholes Option pricing model for ESOP scheme The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 45

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its longterm nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 35.

Taxation

“In preparing financial statements, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The uncertain tax positions are measured at the amount expected to be paid to taxation authorities when the Company determines that the probable outflow of economic resources will occur. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such

differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS.

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.

Impairment of financial assets, expected credit loss for loans and investments

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

41 Fair values

Set out below, is a comparison by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Group financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximations of fair values:

The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings, interest accrued but not due, trade receivables, trade payables and creditor for fixed asset, investor education and protection fund approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the shortterm maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of the 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.The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

The security deposits (paid/received) are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rate, risk factors, risk characteristics, and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation allowances are taken into account for the expected losses of the security deposits.

Borrowing are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors and prepayment.

The fair value of unquoted instruments, other non-current financial assets and non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the significant unobservable inputs are disclosed in the tables below. Management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on the total fair value.

Long-term receivables/payables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, risk factors, individual creditworthiness of the counterparty and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected credit losses of these receivables.

Lease obligations are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, lease period and other lease terms.

43 Capital management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. 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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new sharesThe Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is long term debts plus amount payable for purchase of fixed assets divided by total equity.

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. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current period and in the previous year.

44 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations.

“The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a finance department that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior professionals working to manage the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company are accountable to the Board of Directors . This process provides assurance to Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risk are identified, measured and managed in accordance with Company policies and Company risk objective. In the event of crisis caused due to external factors such as caused by the pandemic “’’COVID-19””, the management assesses the recoverability of its assets, maturity of its liabilities to factor it in cash flow forecast to ensure there is enough liquidity in these situations through internal and external source of funds. These forecast and assumptions are reviewed by Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and deposits.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

(ii) Foreign currency 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 Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency.

Foreign currency sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EURO 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. The Company''s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

(b) Legal, taxation and accounting risk:

The Company is exposed to few legal and administrative proceedings arising during the course of business. The management makes an assessment of these pending cases and in case where it believes that loss arising from a proceeding is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the amount is recorded in the books of account. To mitigate these risks arising from the proceedings, the Company employs third party tax and legal experts to assist in structuring significant transactions and contracts.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The major customers of the Company are original equipment manufacturers (OEM''s) which have a defined period for payment of receivables and from related party, hence the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low. At March 31, 2023, approximately 98% (March 31, 2022: 98%) of all the receivables outstanding were from OEMs and related party.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, all the minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in note 13. The Company does not hold collateral as security except in case of dealer''s securities deposit in after market.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits with the banks with high credit ratings. The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in Note 14.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company monitors its risk of a shortage of funds by doing liquidity planning. The Company''s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, cash credits and advance payment terms.

(e) Commodity price risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing purchases of steel which is a volatile products and is major component of end product. The prices in these purchase contracts are linked to the price of raw steel and demand supply matrix.

37 Segment Reporting

Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way the Company report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing of Automotive suspension which includes Parabolic/ Tapered leaf spring and Lift axle which constitute single reporting business segment. The entire operations are governed by the same set of risk and returns. Based on the "management approach" as defined in Ind AS 108, the management also reviews and measures the operating results taking the whole business as one segment and accordingly make decision about the resource allocation. In view of the same, separate segment information is not required to be given as per the requirements of Ind AS 108 on “Operating Segments”. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the significant accounting policies.

The analysis of geographical segment is based on the geographical location of the customers. The Company operates primarily in India and has presence in international markets as well. Its business is accordingly aligned geographically, catering to two markets i.e. India and Outside India. For customers located outside India, the Company has assessed that they carry same risk and rewards. The Company has considered domestic and exports markets as geographical segments and accordingly disclosed these as separate segments. The geographical segments considered for disclosure are as follows:

The trade receivable information above is based on the location of the customers.(*restated refer Note - 51)

All other assets (other than trade receivable) used in the Company business are located in India and are used to cater both the customers (within India and outside India), accordingly the total cost incurred during the period to acquire the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets has not been disclosed.

38 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Determining the lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options - Company as lessee

The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease ifit isreasonablycertainto be exercised, oranyperiodscoveredbyan option to terminate the lease, ifit isreasonablycertain not to be exercised. The Company has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Company applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate (e.g., construction of significant leasehold improvements or significant customisation to the leased asset).

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.

Share-based payments

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. For the measurement of the fair value of equity-settled transactions with employees at the grant date, the Company uses a Black Scholes Option pricing model for ESOP scheme The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 43.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates.

Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 34.

Taxation

In preparing financial statements, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The uncertain tax positions are measured at the amount expected to be paid to taxation authorities when the Company determines that the probable outflow of economic resources will occur. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS.

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.

The Company has significant capital commitments in relation to various capital projects which are not recognized in the balance sheet. In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Guarantees are also provided in the normal course of business. There are certain obligations which management has concluded, based on all available facts and circumstances, are not probable of payment or are very difficult to quantify reliably, and such obligations are treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements.

Fair value measurement of 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. Refer note 39 for such measurement.

Leases - Estimating the incremental borrowing rate

The Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The IBR therefore reflects what the Company ‘would have to pay'', which requires estimation when no observable rates are available or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the lease . The Company estimates the IBR using observable inputs (such as market interest rates) when available and is required to make certain entity-specific estimates.

The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings, interest accrued but not due, trade receivables, trade payables and creditor for fixed asset, investor education and protection fund approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. (Refer note No- 51)

The fair value of the 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.

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

The security deposits (paid/received) are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rate, risk factors, risk characteristics, and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation allowances are taken into account for the expected losses of the security deposits.

Borrowing are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors and prepayment.

The fair value of unquoted instruments, other non-current financial assets and non-current financial liabilities is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The valuation requires management to use unobservable inputs in the model, of which the significant unobservable inputs are disclosed in the tables below. Management regularly assesses a range of reasonably possible alternatives for those significant unobservable inputs and determines their impact on the total fair value.

Long-term receivables/payables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, risk factors, individual creditworthiness of the counterparty and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected credit losses of these receivables.

Lease obligations are evaluated by the company based on parameters such as interest rates, lease period and other lease terms.

40 Fair Value hierarchy

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company''s assets and liabilities.

41 Capital management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. 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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new sharesThe Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is long term debts plus amount payable for purchase of fixed assets divided by total equity.

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. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current period.

No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021.

42 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations. The Company also enters into derivative transactions.

The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company''s senior management is supported by a finance department that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior professionals working to manage the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company are accountable to the Board of Directors . This process provides assurance to Company''s senior management that the Company''s financial risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risk are identified, measured and managed in accordance with Company policies and Company risk objective. In the event of crisis caused due to external factors such as caused by the pandemic ''"''COVID-19''"'', the management assesses the recoverability of its assets, maturity of its liabilities to factor it in cash flow forecast to ensure there is enough liquidity in these situations through internal and external source of funds. These forecast and assumptions are reviewed by board of directors.

The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits and derivative financial instruments.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company''s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

(ii) Foreign currency 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 Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency).

The Company manages its foreign currency risk by hedging transactions that are expected to occur within a maximum 12-month period for hedges of forecasted sales and purchases(including property, plant and equipment).

When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of being a hedge, the Company negotiates the terms of those derivatives to match the terms of the hedged exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives cover the period of exposure from the point the cash flows of the transactions are forecasted up to the point of settlement of the resulting receivable or payable that is denominated in the foreign currency.

The Company hedges its exposure to fluctuations on the translation into INR of its foreign operations by entering into forward contracts.

Foreign currency sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD and EURO 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. The Company''s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

(b) Legal, taxation and accounting risk:

The Company is exposed to few legal and administrative proceedings arising during the course of business. The management makes an assessment of these pending cases and in case where it believes that loss arising from a proceeding is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the amount is recorded in the books of account. To mitigate these risks arising from the proceedings, the Company employs third party tax and legal experts to assist in structuring significant transactions and contracts.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The major customers of the Company are original equipment manufacturers (OEM''s) which have a defined period for payment of receivables and from related party, hence the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low. At March 31, 2022, approximately 98% (March 31, 2021: 98%) of all the receivables outstanding were from OEMs and related party.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, all the minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in note 13. The Company does not hold collateral as security except in case of dealer''s securities deposit in after market.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits with the banks with high credit ratings. The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in Note 14.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company monitors its risk of a shortage of funds by doing liquidity planning. The Company''s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, cash credits and advance payment terms.

(e) Commodity price risk (Refer note- 51)

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing purchases of steel which is a volatile products and is major component of end product. The prices in these purchase contracts are linked to the price of raw steel and demand supply matrix. However, at present, the Company do not hedge its raw material procurements, as the price of the final product of the Company also vary with the price of steel which mitigate the risk of price volatility.

43 Share based payments

(A) The Company formulated an ESOP Scheme (referred as Company''s Employee Stock Option Scheme, 2017) in accordance with SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits) Regulation, 2014, which was duly approved in the Annual General Meeting of the Shareholders of the Company on August 1, 2017 and the Company also got in-principle approval from both NSE and BSE dated March 20, 2018 and March 27, 2018 respectively in respect of the said Scheme. Under the ESOP Scheme, the eligible employees shall be granted employee Stock Options which will be exercisable into equal number of equity shares of Rs 1/- each of the Company.

5 Exemptions applied

Ind AS 101 allows first time adopter certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under Ind AS. The Company has applied following exemptions : -

1. Ind AS 101 permits a first-time adopter to elect to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS, measured as per IGAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition. This exemption can also be used for intangible assets covered by Ind AS 38 Intangible assets. Accordingly, the Company has elected to measure all of its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets at their IGAAP carrying value;

2. Ind AS 101 grants an option for investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures to be carried at cost in its financial statements on the date of transition to Ind AS. Further, Ind AS 27 requires investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures to be recorded at cost or in accordance with Ind AS 109 in its separate financial statements. The Company has availed the above exemption and recognized the investment in an associate and joint ventures at the amount carried in previous IGAAP on the date of transition to Ind AS. Subsequent to date of transition, the investments are carried at cost.

3. Ind AS 101 grants an option for share based payment to equity instrument that were granted on or before the date of transition to Ind AS, to be carried at cost in its financial statements on the date of transition to Ind AS. The Company has availed the above exemption and recognized the share based payment to equity instrument at the amount carried in previous IGAAP on the date of transition to Ind AS. Subsequent to date of transition, the share based payment to equity instrument are carried at cost.

6 Reconciliation

The following reconciliation provides the effect of transition to Ind AS from IGAAP in accordance with Ind AS 101:

1. Equity as at April 1, 2016 and March 31, 2017

2. Net profit/ loss for the year ended on March 31, 2017

6.1

(a) Cash flow statement

There were no significant reconciliation items between cash flow prepared under IGAAP and those prepared under Ind AS.

(b) Explanation for reconciliation of Balance Sheet as per previously reported under IGAAP to Ind AS Provisions

Under IGAAP, proposed dividends including DDT are recognised as a liability in the period to which they relate, irrespective of when they are declared. Under Ind AS, proposed dividend is recognised as a liability in the period in which it is declared by the Company (usually when approved by shareholders in a general meeting) or paid.

In case of the Company, the declaration of dividend occurs after period end. Therefore, the liability of Rs. 2,629.57 for the year ended on March 31, 2016 recorded for dividend (including dividend distribution tax) has been derecognised against retained earnings on April 1, 2016.

Deferred tax assets (net)

Previous IGAAP required calculation of deferred tax using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the period. Ind AS 12 “Income Taxes” requires entities to account for deferred taxes using the balance sheet approach, which focuses on temporary differences between the carrying amount of an asset or liability in the balance sheet and its tax base. The application of Ind AS 12 has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences which was not required under previous IGAAP.

Retained earnings

Retained earnings as at April 01, 2016 has been adjusted consequent to Ind AS transition adjustments.

Financial assets - Security deposit

Financial assets, including long term deposit paid have been stated at amortised cost fair value.

Financial liabilities - Borrowings

The Company had an interest free borrowing (deferred sales tax loan) from the Government of India. The same has been disclosed at fair value using effective interest rate of 10%.

Long term provisions

Other than re-measurements gain/(loss) on defined benefit plans, it includes adjustments on account of accrual of leave encashment expenditure as prior period items for liability up to April 1, 2016.

Derivative instruments

Outstanding derivative instruments taken by the Company as at April 1, 2016 which were earlier accounted for an amortisation of premium cost, now under Ind AS have been recognised with MTM.

Other current liabilities

The previous IGAAP figures have been reclassified to conform to Ind AS presentation requirement for this note.

Explanation for reconciliation of statement of profit and loss as per previously reported under IGAAP to Ind AS Revenue from operations

Under the previous IGAAP, cash discount paid for early receipt from customer was recorded under the head finance cost. As per Ind AS 18, revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received and receivable taking into account the amount of cash discounts allowed by the entity.

Further under previous IGAAP, sale of goods was presented as net of excise duty. However, under Ind AS, sale of goods includes excise duty. Excise duty on sale of goods is separately presented on the face of statement of profit and loss. Thus sale of goods under Ind AS has increased by Rs. 14,232.77 for the year ended March 31, 2017 with a corresponding increase in expenses.

Financial guarantee contracts

Financial guarantee provided to subsidiary for loan obtained by them has been accounted for on the basis of fair value. Employee benefits expenses

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expenses recognised in a period should be included in profit or loss for the period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expenses that are not recognised in profit or loss but are shown in the statement of profit and loss as ‘other comprehensive income’ includes re-measurement of defined benefit plans.

10 Segment Reporting

Ind AS 108 establishes standards for the way the Company report information about operating segments and related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The Company’s operations comprises of only one segment i.e. manufacturing and selling of automobile suspension products. The entire operations are governed by the same set of risk and returns. Based on the “management approach” as defined in Ind AS 108, the management also reviews and measure the operating results taking the whole business as one segment and accordingly make decision about the resource allocation. In view of the same, separate segment information is not required to be given as per the requirements of Ind AS 108 on “Operating Segments”. The accounting principles used in the preparation of the financial statements are consistently applied to record revenue and expenditure in individual segments, and are as set out in the significant accounting policies.

The analysis of geographical segment is based on the geographical location of the customers. The Company operates primarily in India and has presence in international markets as well. Its business is accordingly aligned geographically, catering to two markets i.e. India and Outside India. For customers located outside India, the Company has assessed that they carry same risk and rewards. The Company has considered domestic and exports markets as geographical segments and accordingly disclosed these as separate segments. The geographical segments considered for disclosure are as follows:

- Sales within India include sales to customers located within India.

- Sales outside India include sales to customers located outside India.

The following is the distribution of the Company’s revenue of operations by geographical market, regardless of where the goods were produced:

Sales to customers generating more than 10% of total revenue aggregates to Rs. 86,534.23 (March 31, 2017 : Rs. 64,702.10).

Trade receivables from customers generating more than 10% of total revenue aggregates to Rs. 10,654.67 (March 31, 2017 : Rs. 1,263.13).

The trade receivable information above is based on the location of the customers.

All other assets (other than trade receivable) used in the Company’s business are located in India and are used to cater both the customers (within India and outside India), accordingly the total cost incurred during the period to acquire the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets has not been disclosed.

11 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

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.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds.

The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates.

Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 37.

Taxation

In preparing financial statements, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognises liabilities for anticipated tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The uncertain tax positions are measured at the amount expected to be paid to taxation authorities when the Company determines that the probable outflow of economic resources will occur. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Provisions and contingencies

The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS.

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.

The Company has significant capital commitments in relation to various capital projects which are not recognized in the balance sheet. In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Guarantees are also provided in the normal course of business. There are certain obligations which management has concluded, based on all available facts and circumstances, are not probable of payment or are very difficult to quantify reliably, and such obligations are treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements.

Fair value measurement of 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. Refer note 42 for such measurement.

12 Capital management

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the company. 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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is long term debts plus amount payable for purchase of fixed assets divided by total equity.

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. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current period.

No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017.

13 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company’s operations and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Company’s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations. The Company also enters into derivative transactions.

The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk, legal risk, taxation risk, accouting risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.

(a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits and derivative financial instruments.

(i) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

(ii) Currency 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 Company’s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency).

The Company manages its foreign currency risk by hedging transactions that are expected to occur within a maximum 12-month period for hedges of forecasted sales and purchases (including property, plant and equipment).

When a derivative is entered into for the purpose of being a hedge, the Comapny negotiates the terms of those derivatives to match the terms of the hedged exposure. For hedges of forecast transactions the derivatives cover the period of exposure from the point the cash flows of the transactions are forecasted up to the point of settlement of the resulting receivable or payable that is denominated in the foreign currency.

The Company hedges its exposure to fluctuations on the translation into INR of its foreign operations by entering into forward contracts. Since the hedge transaction done by the Company does not have significant impact on the results of operations, a sensitivity analysis is not presented.

(b) Legal, taxation and accounting risk

The Company is exposed to few legal and administrative proceedings arising during the course of business. The management makes an assessment of these pending cases and in case where it believes that loss arising from a proceeding is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the amount is recorded in the books of account. To mitigate these risks arising from the proceedings, the Company employs third party tax and legal experts to assist in structuring significant transactions and contracts.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Trade receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The major customers of the Company are original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s) which have a defined period for payment of receivables and from related party, hence the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low. At March 31, 2018, approximately 98% (March 31, 2017: 93%, April 01, 2016 : 93%) of all the receivables outstanding were from OEMs and related party.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, all the minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 12. The Company does not hold collateral as security except in case dealer’s securities deposit in after market.

Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks is managed by the Company’s treasury department in accordance with the Company’s policy. Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits with the banks with high credit ratings. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017 is the carrying amounts as illustrated in Note 13.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company monitors its risk of a shortage of funds by doing liquidity planning. The Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans, cash credits and advance payment terms.

(e) Commodity risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing purchases of steel which is a volatile product and is major component of end product. The prices in these purchase contracts are linked to the price of raw steel and demand supply matrix. However, at present, the Company do not hedge its raw material procurements, as the price of the final product of the Company also vary with the price of steel which mitigate the risk of price volatility.

14 Share based compensation

(A) The Company has issued stock options to its employees in accordance with the Company’s Employee Stock Option Scheme 2006 and 2008. Both the schemes are administered by the Compensation Committee constituted pursuant to SEBI (Share based employee benefits) Regulations, 2014. All the permanent employees of the Company and the subsidiary, including Directors but excluding promoters of the Company are eligible to participate in the schemes. The Committee grants stock options to the employees at its discretion depending upon criteria such as role/designation of the employee, length of service with the Company, past performance record, future potential of the employee and/or such other criteria that may be determined by the Committee.

The stock option shall vest proportionately over the period of 5 years from the date of grant in the ratio of 15% for the first year, 20% for second to fourth year and 25% for the fifth year. The options would be granted at the exercise price that is equivalent to the prevailing market price at the time of grant. The exercise price, in cash, is paid by the employee at the time of exercise of the stock option. The option lapses if not exercised within a period of 3 years from the date of vesting of option. The lapsed option is available for being re-granted/ re-issued at a future date. The maximum number of options that may be granted to any specific employee is upto 0.5 % of the issued capital of the company.

(B) Summary of stock options

All the options vested to its employees prior to transition date to Ind AS i.e. April 1, 2016.

(C) Weighted average share price on the date of exercise of the options is Rs. 120.65 (Previous year Rs. 113.81)

(D) Range of exercise price and weighted average remaining contractual life of stock options outstanding

(E) Weighted average fair value of options: The fair value of each option is estimated using the Black Scholes model after applying the following weighted average assumptions:-

* Not applicable since the Company has not granted stock options during the year.

(F) The Company had been using intrinsic value method of accounting ESOP expenses as prescribed by SEBI (Share based employee benefits) Regulations, 2014, to account for stock options issued under the Company’s stock options schemes. Under this method, compensation expenses are recorded on the basis of excess of the market price of share at the date of grant of option over exercise price of the option.

There would be no impact on the profit or earnings per share had the company used the fair value of the options as the method of accounting instead of intrinsic value as the fair value is less than the intrinsic value of the option.

(G) Following is the table showing fair value, exercise price and amount of expenditure not recognised at each balance sheet date:

15. During the year, the management has evaluated usefulness of certain machinery basis on that accelerated depreciation of Rs. 445.28 has been charged during the period. In the previous year, in order to upgrade its manufacturing facilities, the management has estimated that certain machines were not usable and accordingly, accelerated depreciation of Rs. 1,138.62 has been provided.

16. The Company has incurred expenses on its in-house research and development center at Pune approved and recognised by the Ministry of Science & Technology.

17. Standards issued but not yet effective

Ind AS 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Ind AS 115 was notified on March 28, 2018 and establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under Ind AS 115, revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.

The new revenue standard will supersede all current revenue recognition requirements under Ind AS. Either a full retrospective application or a modified retrospective application is required for annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2018. The Company will adopt the new standard on the required effective date using the modified retrospective method. The Company has established an implementation team to implement Ind AS 115 related to the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers and it continues to evaluate the changes to accounting system and processes, and additional disclosure requirements that may be necessary. A reliable estimate of the quantitative impact of Ind AS 115 on the financial statements will only be possible once the implementation project has been completed.

The Company has identified following areas, where Ind AS 115 will impact.

(a) Sale of goods

Contracts with customers in which the sale of equipment is generally expected to be the only performance obligation are not expected to have any impact on the Company’s profit or loss. The Company expects the revenue recognition to occur at a point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of the goods.

In preparing for Ind AS 115, the Company is considering the following:

Variable consideration

Some contracts with customers provide a right of return, trade discounts or volume rebates. Currently, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of goods measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns and allowances, trade discounts and volume rebates. If revenue cannot be reliably measured, the Company defers revenue recognition until the uncertainty is resolved. Such provisions give rise to variable consideration under Ind AS 115, and will be required to be estimated at contract inception.

Ind AS 115 requires the estimated variable consideration to be constrained to prevent over-recognition of revenue. The Company continues to assess individual contracts to determine the estimated variable consideration and related constraint. The Company expects that application of the constraint may result in more revenue being deferred than under current Ind AS.

(b) Presentation and disclosure requirements

Ind AS 115 provides presentation and disclosure requirements, which are more detailed than under current Ind AS. The presentation requirements represent a significant change from current practice and significantly increases the volume of disclosures required in Company’s financial statements. Many of the disclosure requirements in Ind AS 115 are completely new.

(b) Information on secondary/ geograp8ical segment

NOTE NO: 4 SHARE BASED COMPENSATION

(A) The Company has issued stock options to its employees in accordance with the Company's Employee Stock Option Scheme 2006 and 2008. Both the Schemes are administered by the Compensation Committee constituted pursuant to SEBI (Employee Stock Option Scheme and Employee Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines, 1999. All the permanent employees of the Company and the subsidiaries, including Directors but excluding promoters of the Company are eligible to participate in the schemes. The Committee grants stock options to the employees at its discretion depending upon criteria such as role/ designation of the employee, length of service with the Company, past performance record, future potential of the employee and/or such other criteria that may be determined by the Committee.

The stock option shall vest proportionately over the period of five years from the date of grant in the ratio of 15% for the first year, 20% for second to fourth year and 25% for the fifth year. The options would be granted at the excercise price that is equivalent to the prevailing market price at the time of grant. The exercise price, in cash, is paid by the employee at the time of exercise of the stock option. The option lapses if not exercised within a period of 3 years from the date of vesting of option. The lapsed option is available for being re-granted/ re-issue at a future date. The maximum number of options that may be granted to any specific employee is upto 0.5 % of the issued capital of the Company.

*Not applicable since the Company has not granted stock options during the year

(F) The Company had been using intrinsic value method of accounting ESOP expenses as prescribed by SEBI (Employees Stock Option Scheme and Employees Stock Purchase Scheme) Guidelines 1999, to account for stock options issued under the Company's stock option schemes. Under this method, compensation expenses are recorded on the basis of excess of the market price of share at the date of grant of option over exercise price of the option.

There would be no impact on the profit or earnings per share had the Company used the fair value of the options as the method of accounting instead of intrinsic value as the fair value is less than the instrinsic value of the option.

ii) The guidance on implementing AS-15 issued by Accounting Standards Board of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India states that benefit involving employer established provided funds, which requires interest shortfall to be re-compensated, are to be considered as defined benefit plans. Considering a confirmation by the actuary that there is no formal guidance available from Actuarial Society of India in this regard, the Company believes that actuarial valuation at present is not necessary. Amount charged to the Profit and Loss Account in this regard is Rs161.31 lakhs (Previous year Rs135.98 lakhs).

Experience adjustments

The disclosure relating to experience adjustments have not been given in the financial statements, the management is of the view that the same will not be material to the overall financial statement disclosure and presentation.

Actuarial Assumptions

a) Economic Assumptions

The principal assumptions are the discount rate and salary growth rate.

Valuation assumptions are as follows which have been agreed by the company

Actuarial Method

a) Actuary has used the projected unit credit (PUC) actuarial method to assess the plan's liabilities of exit employees for retirement, death-in-service and withdrawals (Resignations / Terminations).

b) Under the PUC method a projected accrued benefit is calculated at the beginning of the period and again at the end of the period for each benefit that will accrue for all active member of the plan. The projected accrued benefit is based on the plan accrual formula and upon service as of the beginning or end of period, but using member's final compensation, projected to the age at which the employee is assumed to leave active service. The plan liability is the actuarial present value of the projected accrued benefits as on the date of valuation.

Actuarial Value

Leave encashment is accounted on the basis of actual leaves outstanding to the credit of respective employees at the end of the financial year as per the company's policy.

Note:

In Malanpur unit fund value as per the records of LIC is Rs.150.28 lacs. Since as per actuarial valuation total obligation of Rs.142.92 lacs is less than fund value with LIC, no provision for gratuity has been made during the year in Malanpur unit.
