Balance Sheet date is considered probable.

(b) Provision is recognized in the accounts in respect of present
probable obligations, the amount of which can be reliably
estimated.

(c) Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

(d) Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible

disclosed only in accordance with Ind AS 40.

2.20 Segment Reporting

Operating segments are identified and reported taking into
account the different risk and return, organisational structure
and internal reporting system.

2.21 Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/
(loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extra ordinary
items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares
outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/
(loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extra ordinary
items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares
considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the
weighted average number of equity shares which could be
issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.22 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the
Balance sheet comprise cash on hand, cheques on hand,
balance with banks on current accounts and short term, highly
liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or
less and which carry insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the Cash Flow Statement, Cash and
cash equivalents consist of Cash and cash equivalents, as
defined above and net of outstanding book overdrafts as
they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash
management.

2.23 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby
profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of
a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future
operating cash receipts or payment and item of income or
expenses associated with investing or financing flows. The
cash flows operating, investing and financing activities of the
company are segregated.

2.26 Leases

Effective April 01,2019, the Company has adopted lnd AS 116
"Leases", applied to all lease contracts existing on April 01,2019
using the modified retrospective method. Accordingly, the
Company recognizes right-of-use asset at the date of initial
application. The right-of-use asset is measure equal to the lease
liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued
lease payments relating to that lease recognized in the balance
sheet immediately before the date of initial application.

The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a
lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. Identification
of a lease requires significant judgment. The Company uses
significant judgment in assessing the lease term (including
anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate.

The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable
period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an
option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain
to exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to
terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not
to exercise that option. In assessing whether the Company
is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease,
or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers
all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic
incentive for the Company to exercise the option to extend the
lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The
Company revises the lease term if there is a change in the non¬
cancellable period of a lease.

The discount rate is generally based on the incremental
borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a
portfolio of leases with similar characteristics

A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards
incidental to ownership to the lessee is classified as a finance
lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Company as a lessee

The Company accounts for each lease component within the
contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of
the contract and allocates the consideration in the contract to
each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone
price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone
price of the non-lease components.

The Company recognises right-of-use asset representing
its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the
lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use

asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount
of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for
any lease payments made at or before the commencement
date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct
costs incurred and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the
lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or
restoring the underlying asset or site on which it is located. The
right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any
accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if
any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability.
The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line
method from the commencement date over the shorter of
lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset. The estimated
useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same
basis as those of property, plant and equipment. Right-of-
use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any
indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Impairment loss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit
and loss.

The Company measures the lease liability at the present value
of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement
date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using
the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily
determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the
Company uses incremental borrowing rate. For leases with
reasonably similar characteristics, the Company, on a lease by
lease basis, may adopt either the incremental borrowing rate
specific to the lease or the incremental borrowing rate for the
portfolio as a whole. The lease payments shall include fixed
payments, variable lease payments, residual value guarantees,
exercise price of a purchase option where the Company is
reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of
penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the
lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease. The lease
liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying

amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the
carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and
remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment
or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed
lease payments. The company recognises the amount of the
re-measurement of lease liability due to modification as an
adjustment to the right-of-use asset and statement of profit
and loss depending upon the nature of modification. Where
the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to
zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the
lease liability, the Company recognises any remaining amount
of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.

The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind
AS 116 to short-term leases of all assets that have a lease term
of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset
is of low value. The lease payments associated with these leases
are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.

Company as a lessor

At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of
its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. The
Company recognises lease payments received under operating
leases as income on a straight- line basis over the lease term. In
case of a finance lease, finance income is recognised over the
lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic
rate of return on the lessor''s net investment in the lease.
When the Company is an intermediate lessor it accounts for
its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It
assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with
reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short term
lease to which the Company applies the exemption described
above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

38.1 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities include Borrowings, Trade payables and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents, Bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents and Other financial assets that arise directly from its operations.

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior management provides assurance that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives.

The Board of Directors reviewed policies for managing each of below mentioned risks, which are summarized below:

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, foreign currency risk and other risks, such as regulatory risk and commodity price risk.

(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 borrowings obligations with floating interest rates. To mitigate the interest rate risks, the Company has established a periodical review procedure and ensures long term relations with the lenders to raise adequate funds at competitive 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. This foreign currency risk is covered by using foreign exchange forward contracts and currency swap contracts. The Company does not have substantial transactions during the year in foreign currency so the Company does not have such kind of risk

As the amount of foreign exchange fluctuation is not material during past period so the Company has not hedged the foreign currency.

(iii) Regulatory risk

Sugar industry is regulated both by central government as well as state government. Central and state government''s policies and regulations affect the Sugar industry and the Company''s operations and profitability. Distillery business is also dependent on the Government policy.

(iv) Commodity price risk

Sugar industry being cyclical in nature, realizations get adversely affected during downturn. Higher cane price or higher production than the demand ultimately affects profitability. The Company has mitigated this risk by well integrated business model by diversifying into cogeneration and distillation, thereby utilizing the by-products.

Credit risk

CCredit risk is the risk that counter party will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company''s sugar sales are mostly on cash. Power and ethanol are sold to state government entities; thereby the credit default risk is significantly mitigated. The Central Govt. has fixed the minimum sale price of sugar w.e.f. 14.02.2019 at Rs.3,100 per Qtl. which has mitigated the price risk to the some extent. Similarly, ethanol is sold to the Govt. undertakings/Oil manufacturing companies and power is sold to the Govt. undertaking at fixed prices as per Govt. orders / regulatory guidelines.

The impairment for financial assets is based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each balance sheet date. Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, however, the Company continues to attempt to recover the receivables. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(i) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on credit terms of 3 to 60 days. An impairment analysis is performed at each balance sheet date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the balance sheet date is the ageing analysis of the receivables has been considered from the date the invoice falls due:

The management has made provision for expected credit loss amounting to Rs. 15.94 lakhs (Rs. 15.94 lakhs) and management is of view that although certain amounts are beyond credit period but they are in fact recoverable and will be received in due course so balance amount is not liable to expected credit loss.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the balance sheet date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed under Note No. 11. The following table summarizes the change in the loss allowances measured using life time expected credit loss method for trade receivables:

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk refers to the probability of loss arising from a situation where there will not be enough cash and/or cash equivalents to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers, sale of illiquid assets will yield less than their fair value and illiquid assets will not be sold at the desired time due to lack of buyers. The primary objective of liquidity management is to provide for sufficient cash and cash equivalents at all times and any place in the world to enable us to meet our payment obligations. The Company is maintaining cash credit limit to a reasonable level to meet out the current obligation.

The Company''s objectives are to meet the funding requirements and maintain flexibility in this respect through the use of cash credit facilities and term loans.

38.2 Capital Management (I) Risk Management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Company''s capital management is to maximize the shareholders 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 net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company''s policy is to keep the gearing ratio under control except for the first quarter of the financial year due to nonpayment of cane dues. The Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables, less cash and short-term deposits.

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 during the current period.

38.3 Earnings per Share

Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding.

Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company 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.

(I) Defined benefits plans

Long term employee benefits in the form of gratuity and leave encashment are considered as defined benefit plans. The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using projected Unit credit method as at the balance sheet date. The amount of defined benefits recognized in the balance sheet represent the present value of obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past service cost as reduced by the fair value of plan assets. Short term employee benefits are recognized as an expense at the undiscounted amount in the Statement of Profit & Loss for the year in which the related service is rendered.

The Company is exposed to various risks in providing the above gratuity benefit which are as follows:

Interest rate risk: The plan exposes the Company to the risk of fall in interest rates. A fall in interest rates will result in an increase in the ultimate cost of providing the above benefit and will thus result in an increase in the value of the liability (as shown in financial statements).

Salary escalation risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan is calculated with the assumption of salary increase 5% per annum of plan participants in future. Deviation in the rate of increase of salary in future for plan participants from the rate of increase in salary used to determine the present value of obligation will have a bearing on the plan''s liability.

Actual mortality & disability: Deaths & disability cases proving lower or higher than assumed in the valuation can impact the liabilities.

Sensitivity Analysis: Significant actuarial assumptions for the determination of the defined benefit obligation are discount rate and expected salary increase rate. Effect of change in mortality rate is negligible. Please note that the sensitivity analysis presented below may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumption would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated. The results of sensitivity analysis are given below:

38.6 Leases Company as lessee

The Company has taken commercial properties on cancellable operating lease. The lease agreement provides for an option to the Company to renew the lease period at the end of cancellable period.

The Company has adopted Ind AS-116 "Leases" w.e.f. 01.04.2019 and applied the standard to lease contracts existing on 1st April, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.

Consequent to this, such assets have been recognised as "Right-of-use" (ROU) assets and have been amortized over the term of the lease.

The same has been shown under note no.3 of financial statements. Depreciation charge for ROU assets is included under depreciation and amortization expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss under note no.35.

Further, to above, the Company has certain lease agreement on short term basis, expenditure on which has been recognized under rent (other expenses).

The effect of adoption of Ind AS -116 "Leases" is not material on the profit before tax, profit for the year and earnings per share.

Company as lessor

The Company has given certain portion of factory premises on cancellable operating lease. The rent received on the same has been grouped under other income. The rent received during the year is Rs.5.84 lakhs (previous year Rs.5.79 lakhs).

Note: The value of perquisites shown above is as per the Income Tax provisions.

The transactions with related parties have been entered at an amount, which are not materially different from those on normal commercial terms. No amount has been written back/written off during the year in respect to due to/due from related parties.

Transactions with Related Parties are made on the terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm''s length transactions.

The remuneration to the Key Managerial Personnels are in line with the service rules of the Company.

The aforementioned related party transactions have been recommended by Audit Committee and approved by the Board in their respective meetings held during the year.

38.9 Segment Reporting: Information on the Segment Reporting is as under:

The company has identified three primary business segments viz. Sugar, Distillery and Power. Segments have been identified and reported taking into account the nature of products, the differing risks and returns, the organizational structure and internal business reposting system as defined in Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments.

*Capital expenditure includes fixed assets capitalized during the year and net increase/decrease in capital work-in-progress.

Inter-segment revenues are eliminated upon consolidation and reflected in the inter-segment sales column. Current taxes and deferred taxes are not allocated to individual segments as the same are dealt with at company level.

The transactions between segments are primarily for materials which are transferred at market determined prices. Common costs are apportioned on a reasonable basis.

Information about Secondary Geographical Segment: There is no secondary segment.

38.10 Fair value

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

38.13 In view of the decision of Hon''ble Supreme Court, extra price and excise duty realized on levy sugar in earlier years amounting to Rs.67.11 lakhs for funding under the Sugar Price Equalization Fund Act, 1976 was transferred to Sugar Price Equalization Reserve Account. Later on as per the order dated 22.09.1993 of Hon''ble Supreme Court, a sum of Rs. 17.90 lakhs was paid to the Government out of bank guarantee furnished by the Company and further, during the year 1998-99 a sum of Rs.1.00 lakhs were paid towards Excise Duty on the above. The Company has further made a payment of Rs.35.81 lakhs during the year 2005-06 to the Government of India against the bank guarantee furnished by it along with interest of Rs. 118.25 lakhs thereon. Still a sum of Rs.12.40 lakhs is lying in the Sugar Price Equalization Reserve as on 31st March, 2023 shown under Note 17 of "Other equity".

38.14 Certain balances in account of trade receivables, advances, deposit accounts and trade payables are subject to reconciliation and confirmation by the respective parties. The management reviewed these advances from time to time, the required provisions have been considered in the accounts. The management is of the view that the realization from these assets in the ordinary course of business would not be less than the amount at which they are stated in the books of account.

38.15 Other non-current liabilities (Note No.21) includes a loan from U.P. Government amounting to Rs.14.50 lakhs. The issue relating to interest payable thereon is under dispute and the matter is sub-judice before the Hon''ble Allahabad High Court. However, as per the interim order of the Court, a fixed deposit of Rs.14.50 lakhs has been kept with the District Magistrate, Ayodhya. In opinion of the management, the amount of interest accrued on this fixed deposit is adequate to meet the interest obligation liability of the Company on the said loan and therefore, no interest is being provided for in these financial statements.

38.16 As per Bihar State Government directions, the operations of country liquor bottling unit remain discontinued during the year. However, the plant and machinery of that unit was moved in earlier years to the Distillery Unit for manufacturing of country liquor. Thus, depreciation due to obsolescence has been provided on building amounting to Rs. Nil in the current year. (Previous year Nil).

38.17 Since, the sugar industry is a seasonal industry; the cost of production of sugar is worked out on annualized basis considering prime cost, factory overhead and administrative overhead closely related to manufacturing of output.

38.18 The Company has a subsidiary company namely K M Spirits and Allied Industries Ltd.

38.19 The management is of the view that dividend payment is most probable to receive from the investments in the preference shares amounting to Rs.338.92 lakhs in K. M. Energy (P) Ltd., and Rs.385.00 lakhs in Brahma Properties (P) Ltd. considering dividend at 9% and in preference shares of Sonar Casting Ltd. considering dividend at 12.50% and this fact has been taken into account while determining the fair value of these investments. However, no dividend received on these investment since amount invested.

38.20 The Central Government pursuant to Notification No. 1 (1)/2022-Trade dated 5th November, 2022 issued by the Hon''ble Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution (Department of Food and Public Distribution) has notified sugar mill wise export quantity of sugar for export in sugar season 2022-23 in order to prevent uncontrolled export of sugar and with a view to ensure sufficient availability of sugar for domestic consumption at a reasonable price. The notification also provides facility to export sugar themselves or through merchant exporter or exchange their export quota with domestic quota of any other sugar mill.

Pursuant to above notification, the Company has sold its export quota for exchange with domestic quota of any other sugar mill. The amount received on sale of export quota of Rs. Nil (Previous year Rs.879.05 lakhs) has been shown as line item "Export quota sale receipt" under Revenue from operations.

38.24 The company has taken SBI SEFASU Loan from Government amounting to Rs.4775.94 lakhs bearing 5% Interest rate. Fair value of loan has been determined using discount rate 10.50% as the bank''s fund is available at this rate and difference between actual amount and present value is amortised over the loan tenure and same has been considered as deferred government grant.

38.25 The company has lease hold land from U P Government and out of which 3 hectare land has been sub-leased to K M Particle Boards Pvt. Ltd. vide sub-lease deed dated 23.01.2024 executed by U. P. Government, K M Sugar Mills Ltd. and K M Particle Boards Pvt. Ltd. and registered on 03.02.2024.

(b) Provision is recognized in the accounts in respect of present probable obligations, the amount of which can be reliably estimated.

(c) Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

2.20 Segment Reporting

Operating segments are identified and reported taking into account the different risk and return, organisational structure and internal reporting system.

2.21 Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/ (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extra ordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/ (loss) after tax (including the post tax effect of extra ordinary items, if any) by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of equity shares which could be issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

2.22 Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance sheet comprise cash on hand, cheques on hand, balance with banks on current accounts and short term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and which carry insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of the Cash Flow Statement, Cash and cash equivalents consist of Cash and cash equivalents, as defined above and net of outstanding book overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company''s cash management.

2.23 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts or payment and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing flows. The

cash flows operating, investing and financing activities of the company are segregated.

2.26 Leases

Effective April 01, 2019, the Company has adopted lnd AS 116 "Leases", applied to all lease contracts existing on April 01, 2019 using the modified retrospective method. Accordingly, the Company recognizes right-of-use asset at the date of initial application. The right-of-use asset is measure equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognized in the balance sheet immediately before the date of initial application.

The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. Identification of a lease requires significant judgment. The Company uses significant judgment in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate.

The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. In assessing whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Company to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Company revises the lease term if there is a change in the noncancellable period of a lease.

The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics

A lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the lessee is classified as a finance lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Company as a lessee

The Company accounts for each lease component within the contract as a lease separately from non-lease components of the contract and allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand-alone price of the non-lease components.

The Company recognises right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the right-of-use asset measured at inception shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to be incurred by the lessee in dismantling and removing the underlying asset or restoring the

underlying asset or site on which it is located. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of right-of-use asset. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. Right-of-use assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate. For leases with reasonably similar characteristics, the Company, on a lease by lease basis, may adopt either the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease or the incremental borrowing rate for the portfolio as a whole. The lease payments shall include fixed payments, variable lease payments, residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option where the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment

or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. The company recognises the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability due to modification as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset and statement of profit and loss depending upon the nature of modification. Where the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero and there is a further reduction in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company recognises any remaining amount of the re-measurement in statement of profit and loss.

The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 to short-term leases of all assets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Company as a lessor

At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. The Company recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight- line basis over the lease term. In case of a finance lease, finance income is recognised over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor''s net investment in the lease. When the Company is an intermediate lessor it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short term lease to which the Company applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease.

38.1 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities include Borrowings, Trade payables and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents, Bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents and Other financial assets that arise directly from its operations.

The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior management provides assurance that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives.

The Board of Directors reviewed policies for managing each of below mentioned risks, which are summarized below:

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, foreign currency risk and other risks, such as regulatory risk and commodity price risk.

(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 borrowings obligations with floating interest rates. To mitigate the interest rate risks, the Company has established a periodical review procedure and ensures long term relations with the lenders to raise adequate funds at competitive 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. This foreign currency risk is covered by using foreign exchange forward contracts and currency swap contracts. The Company does not have substantial transactions during the year in foreign currency so the Company does not have such kind of risk.

(iii) Regulatory risk

Sugar industry is regulated both by central government as well as state government. Central and state government''s policies and regulations affect the Sugar industry and the Company''s operations and profitability. Distillery business is also dependent on the Government policy.

(iv) Commodity price risk

Sugar industry being cyclical in nature, realizations get adversely affected during downturn. Higher cane price or higher production than the demand ultimately affects profitability. The Company has mitigated this risk by well integrated business model by diversifying into co-generation and distillation, thereby utilizing the by-products.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counter party will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company''s sugar sales are mostly on cash. Power and ethanol are sold to state government entities; thereby the credit default risk is significantly mitigated. The Central Govt. has fixed the minimum sale price of sugar w.e.f. 14.02.2019 at Rs.3,100 per Qtl. which has mitigated the price risk to the some extent. Similarly, ethanol and power are sold to the Govt. undertakings at fixed prices as per Govt. orders / regulatory guidelines.

The impairment for financial assets is based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each balance sheet date. Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, however, the Company continues to attempt to recover the receivables. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(i) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on credit terms of 3 to 60 days. An impairment analysis is performed at each balance sheet date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the balance sheet date is the ageing analysis of the receivables has been considered from the date the invoice falls due:

(I) Risk Management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Company''s capital management is to maximize the shareholders 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 net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company''s policy is to keep the gearing ratio under control except for the first quarter of the financial year due to nonpayment of cane dues. The Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables, less cash and short-term deposits.

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 during the current period.

In the opinion of the management, no provision is considered necessary for the disputes mentioned above on the grounds that there are fair chances of successful outcome of appeals filed by the Company.

The Cane Commissioner, Uttar Pradesh has passed an order dated 17.12.2021 for payment of 12% interest on late cane payment of sugar season 2013-14. The company has filed appeal before Cane Commissioner, Uttar Pradesh. No impact has been considered in financial results as the interest amount is indeterminate and pending appeal.

The amount shown above represent the best possible estimates arrived at on the basis of available information. The uncertainties and timing of the cash flows are dependent on the outcome of different legal processes which have been invoked by the Company or the claimants as the case may be and therefore cannot be ascertained accurately. The Company does not expect any reimbursements in respect of above contingent liabilities.

company as lessee

The Company has taken commercial properties on cancellable operating lease. The lease agreement provides for an option to the Company to renew the lease period at the end of cancellable period.

The Company has adopted Ind AS-116 "Leases" w.e.f. 01.04.2019 and applied the standard to lease contracts existing on 1st April, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.

Consequent to this, such assets have been recognised as "Right-of-use" (ROU) assets and have been amortized over the term of the lease.

The same has been shown under note no.3 of financial statements. Depreciation charge for ROU assets is included under depreciation and amortization expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss under note no.33.

Further, to above, the Company has certain lease agreement on short term basis, expenditure on which has been recognized under rent (other expenses).

38.13 In view of the decision of Hon''ble Supreme Court, extra price and excise duty realized on levy sugar in earlier years amounting to Rs.67.11 lakhs for funding under the Sugar Price Equalization Fund Act, 1976 was transferred to Sugar Price Equalization Reserve Account. Later on as per the order dated 22.09.1993 of Hon''ble Supreme Court, a sum of Rs. 17.90 lakhs was paid to the Government out of bank guarantee furnished by the Company and further, during the year 1998-99 a sum of Rs.1.00 lakhs were paid towards Excise Duty on the above. The Company has further made a payment of Rs.35.81 lakhs during the year 2005-06 to the Government of India against the bank guarantee furnished by it along with interest of Rs. 118.25 lakhs thereon.

38.16 As per Bihar State Government directions, the operations of country liquor bottling unit remain discontinued during the year. However, the plant and machinery of that unit was moved in earlier years to the Distillery Unit for manufacturing of country liquor. Thus, depreciation due to obsolescence has been provided on building amounting to Rs. Nil in the current year. (Previous year —Rs. 12.19 lakhs).

38.17 Since, the sugar industry is a seasonal industry; the cost of production of sugar is worked out on annualized basis considering prime cost, factory overhead and administrative overhead closely related to manufacturing of output.

38.18 The Company has a subsidiary company namely K M Spirits and Allied Industries Ltd.

38.19 The management is of the view that dividend payment is most probable to receive from the investments in the preference shares amounting to Rs.338.92 lakhs in K. M. Energy (P) Ltd., and Rs.385.00 lakhs in Brahma Properties (P) Ltd. considering dividend at 9% and in preference shares of Sonar Casting Ltd. considering dividend at 12.50% and this fact has been taken into account while determining the fair value of these investments. However, no dividend received on these investment since amount invested.

38.20 The Central Government pursuant to Notification No. 1 (1)/2022-Trade dated 5th November, 2022 issued by the Hon''ble Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution (Department of Food and Public Distribution) has notified sugar mill wise export quantity of sugar for export in sugar season 2022-23 in order to prevent uncontrolled export of sugar and with a view to ensure sufficient availability of sugar for domestic consumption at a reasonable price.

35. Explanation of transition to Ind AS

These financial statements, for the year ended 31st March, 2018, are the first financial statements, the Company has prepared in accordance with Ind AS. Accordingly, the Company has prepared financial statements which comply with IndAS applicable for year ended 31st March, 2018, together with the comparative figures for the year ended 31stMarch, 2017, as described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

In preparing these financial statements, the Company''s opening balance sheet was prepared as at 1st April, 2016, i.e. the date of transition to Ind AS.

This note explains the principal adjustments made by the Company and an explanation on how the transition from the previous GAAP to Ind AS has affected its financial statements, including the Balance Sheet as at 1st April, 2016 and the financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2017. Set out below are the applicable Ind AS 101 optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions applied in the transition from the previous GAAP to Ind AS:

(a) The Company has elected to continue with carrying value of all Property, plant and equipment under the previous GAAP as deemedcost as at the transition date i.e. 1st April, 2016. Under the previous GAAP, Property, plant and equipment were stated at their original cost(net of accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment), if any, adjusted by revaluation of certain assets.

(b) The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value of Capital work in progress as recognized under the previous GAAP asdeemed cost as at the transition date.

(c) The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for intangible assets (computer software) as recognized under theprevious GAAP as deemed cost as at the transition date. Under the previous GAAP, Computer Software was stated at its original cost, netof accumulated amortization.

(d) Appendix C to IndAS 17 requires an entity to assess whether a contract or arrangement contains a lease. In accordance with IndAS17, this assessment should be carried out at the inception of the contract or arrangement. However, the Company has used Ind AS 101exemption and assessed all arrangements for embedded leases based on conditions in place as at the date of transition.

(e) The Company has elected to apply previous GAAP carrying amount of its investment in its subsidiary as deemed cost as at the date of transition. Under Ind AS 109, at initial recognition of a financial asset, an entity may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument in other comprehensive income. Ind AS101 allows such designation of previously recognized financial assets, as ''FVTOCI'' on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed at the date of transition to Ind AS. Accordingly, the Company has designated its investments in certain equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income on the basis of the facts and circumstances that existed as at the date of transition to Ind AS.

(f) The estimates as at 1st April, 2016 and as at 31st March 2017 are consistent with those made for the same dates in accordance with Indian GAAP (after adjustments to reflect any differences in accounting policies).

(g) The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts and interest rate swaps, to hedge its foreign currency risks and interest rate risks respectively. Under the previous GAAP, there is no mandatory standard that deals with hedge accounting, which has resulted in the adoption of varying practices. The Company has not applied for hedge accounting on or after the transition date.

(h) Ind AS 101 requires the de-recognition requirements of Ind AS 109 to be applied prospectively to transactions occurring on or after the date of transition. Therefore, the Company has not recognized financial assets and liabilities under Ind AS which were derecognized under the previous GAAP as a result of a transaction that occurred before the date of transition.

(i) The Company has applied the requirements in Ind AS 109 and Ind AS 20 retrospectively to government loans existing as at the date of transition to Ind AS.

35.1.Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities include

Borrowings, Trade payable and Other financial \ government as well as state government. Central and state governments policies and regulations affect the Sugar industry and the Company''s operations and profitability. Distillery business is also dependent on the Government policy. However, with the removal of major regulatory control on sugar sales by the Central Government, the regulatory risk are moderated.

(iv) Commodity price risk

Sugar industry being cyclical in nature, realizations get adversely affected during downturn. Higher cane price or higher production than the demand ultimately affect profitability. The Company has mitigated this risk by well integrated business model by diversifying into co-generation and distillation, thereby utilizing the by-products. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its Obligation sunder a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The company''s sugar sales are mostly on cash. Power and ethanol are sold to state government entities; thereby the credit default risk is significantly mitigated.

The impairment for financial assets 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 the Company''s past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each balance sheet date. Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, however, the Company continues to attempt to recover the receivables. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

(v) Trade receivables

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on cash basis. An impairment analysis is performed at each balance sheet date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the balance sheet date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets disclosed under.

(vi) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk refers to the probability of loss arising from a situation where there will not be enough cash and/or cash equivalents to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers, sale of illiquid assets will yield less than their fair value and illiquid assets will not be sold at the desired time due to lack of buyers. liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include Trade receivables, Cash and cash equivalents and Other financial assets that derive directly from its operations. The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The senior management provides assurance that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives.

(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 borrowings obligations with floating interest rates. Financial implication will not adversely affect the businesses as the management has established a periodical review procedure to consider the changes taken place in market.

(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 foreign currency denominated borrowings.

35.23. Capital Management

For the purpose of the Company''s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objectiv

of the Company''s capital management is to maximize 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 net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company''s policy is to keep the gearing ratio under control except for the first quarter of the financial year due to non-payment of cane dues. The Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables, less cash and short-term deposits.

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.

(d) Footnotes to the reconciliation of equity as at 1st April,

2016 and 31st March, 2017 and Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended 31st March, 2017:

A. Property, plant and equipment :

Under Ind AS, the Company has elected to opt for cost model with respect to property, plant and equipment, capital work in progress and computer software.

B &D. Loan:

Under the previous GAAP, security deposit given to parties were classified under loan and advances. Now, under Ind AS, refundable security deposit to be classified as loan given to parties and covered under Ind As 32 and 109 and required to be amortized to their fair value. Difference between carrying amount and its fair value is shown under deferred rent and amortized over the tenure of agreement. C. Investments in equity instruments:

Under the previous GAAP, investment in equity instruments were classified as long-term investments or current investment based on the intended holding period and reliability. The Company accounted for long term investments in equity shares as investment measured at cost less provision for other than temporary diminution in the value of investments, if any. Under Ind AS, the Company has the option to designate such investments either as FVTOCI or FVTPL investments under Ind As 109 and 32. In case of other long-term investments in unquoted equity shares, the Company has designated investments as FVTOCI investments as at the date of transition. Ind AS requires FVTOCI investments to be measured at fair value. Difference between Carrying value of investments as per Ind AS and carrying value of investments as per previous GAAP aggregating to Rs. 6.27lakhs at the date of transition and subsequent changes of 0.24 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2017 has been deferred and has been shown as "Deferred gain on changes in fair value of financial assets" under Other Non-Current Liabilities.

Investment in preference share (Unquoted)

Under GAAP investment in preference share were shown as investment. Under Ind AS 109 and 32 if they are issued less than market rate of interest and unquoted then should be amortized to bring them at their fair value. Difference between carrying value of Investment as per previous GAAP and Ind AS amounting to Rs.30.35 lakhs adjusted with retained earnings as on 01.04.16 and subsequent changes amounting to Rs. 50.14 lakhs routed through profit / loss account for the year ended 31.03.17.

E. Borrowings:

Ind AS requires transaction costs incurred towards origination of borrowings to be deducted from the carrying amount of borrowings on initial recognition. These costs are recognized in profit or loss over the tenure of the borrowing as part of the interest expense by applying the effective interest rate method. Under previous GAAP, transaction costs incurred in connection with borrowings are accounted upfront and charged to Statement of Profit and Loss for the period in which such transaction costs are incurred. Accordingly, borrowings as at the transition date aggregating to Rs.18.49 Lakhs have been reduced with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings, net of tax. Unsecured loan at interest free taken from promoters are amortized using effective interest Rate and Difference between carrying amount under previous GAAP and Ind As was amounting to Rs.36.47 lakhs adjusted with retained earnings as on 01.04.16 and subsequent changes, if any, operating to the year ended 31.03.17 amounting to Rs.

17.04 lakhs were transferred to statement of Profit / Loss account for the year ended 31.03.17.

F. Deferred tax: Previous GAAP required deferred tax accounting using the income statement approach, which focuses on differences between taxable profits and accounting profits for the year. Ind AS 12 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 approach has resulted in recognition of deferred tax on new temporary differences which were not required under the previous GAAP. Moreover, carry forward of unused tax credits are to be treated as deferred tax assets which was earlier considered as Other non-current non-financial assets. In addition, the various transitional adjustments lead to temporary differences and consequently deferred tax adjustments have been recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction in retained earnings. The net impact on deferred tax liabilities has reduced by Rs.10.59 lakhs as at the date of transition and Rs. 594.99 lakhs for the year ended on 31st March, 2017 respectively.

Retained earnings as at the transition date has been adjusted consequent to the above Ind AS transitional adjustments.

G. Government Grant

Under Previous GAAP, Loan taken from government was not considered as government grant. Now, under Ind AS 20 loans received from government at concessional rate would be considered as government grant and its value will be determined under Ind As 109 and 32. Difference between amount under GAAP was transferred to deferred Income amounting to Rs.295.63 lakhs pertain to the period prior to 01.04.16 was transferred to retained earnings and Subsequent amount Rs.108.05 lakhs was transferred to statement of profit / loss account for the year ended 31.03.17.

H. Capital Reserve

Certain government grant was received by the Company in past years as grant in the nature of promoter''s contribution and recognized under Capital reserve as required under the previous GAAP. Ind AS does not permit recognition of government grant in the nature of promoter contribution to capital reserve. Under Ind AS, such government grants are required to be treated as an asset related grant and to be presented in the balance sheet by setting up the grant as deferred income. The grant set up as deferred income is to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic basis over the useful life of the related asset. Accordingly, to comply with Ind AS 20 the Company has reclassified and transferred an appropriate amount Rs.48.33 lakhs from capital reserve to retained earnings as at the transition date as the period and term attached to grant is already satisfied.

I. Corporate Guarantee Given by Holding Company to Subsidiary.

The company has given guarantee to its subsidiary company (K.M. Energy (P) Ltd.) amounting to Rs.2,433.00 lakhs and the same was accounted for in the books at fair value of corporate guarantee for the year ended 31.03.17 as Investment in equity of subsidiary company and corresponding financial liability is created in the books that will be transferred to statement of Profit / Loss account over the period of corporate guarantee. K.M. Energy (P) Ltd. is not a subsidiary as at 31.03.2018.

J. Revenue from sale of goods

Under the previous GAAP, revenue from sale of goods was presented as net of excise duty on sales. However, under Ind AS, revenue from sale of goods includes excise duty and such excise duty is separately presented as an expense on the face of the Statement of Profit and Loss. Thus, under Ind AS, sale of goods for the year ended 31st March, 2017 has been increased by Rs1684.34 lakhs with a corresponding increase in "Total expense".

Interest Income

The previous GAAP required the recognition of revenue from interest on time proportion basis. However, Ind AS requires interest on financial assets to be recognized using the effective interest rate method.

K. Defined benefit liabilities:

As under the previous GAAP, under Ind AS, also the Company continues to recognize costs related to its postemployment defined benefit plan on an actuarial basis. The entire cost, including actuarial gains and losses, was charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss. Under Ind AS, re-measurements of defined benefit plan are recognized in the Balance Sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to equity through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Thus, the employee benefit cost is reduced by Rs.6.52 lakhs and re-measurement losses on defined benefit plans has been recognized in the OCI, net of tax as at the transition date. Under Ind AS, an entity is permitted to transfer amounts recognized in Other Comprehensive Income within equity. The Company has taken recourse of the said provision and has transferred as at the date of transition to Ind AS, all measurement costs relating to prior period to the transition date to Retained earnings.

L. Finance cost

Unwinding effect related to Financial Liability is recognized as Finance cost. It is mainly related to borrowing taken from government at concessional rate.

M. Total comprehensive income and other comprehensive income:

Under the previous GAAP, the company did not present

total comprehensive income and other comprehensive income. Hence, it has reconciled the previous GAAP profit to profit as per Ind AS. Further, the previous GAAP profit is reconciled to other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income as per Ind AS. The company has accounted for difference between carrying amount of equity instrument as per GAAP and Ind As adjusted with retained earnings and classified as comprehensive income amounting to Rs. 13.23 lakhs as at 01.04.16 and subsequent changes on account of the same items amounting to Rs.20.48 lakhs were routed through comprehensive income.

35.26. The previous year''s figures have been regrouped, reclassified, reworked and rearranged wherever necessary to correspond with the current year classification / disclosures. Amounts and other disclosures for the preceding period are included as an integral part of the current year financial statements and are to be read in relation to the amounts and other disclosures relating to current year.
