h) Provisions and contingencies:

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a
present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of
a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle
the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of
the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time
value of money is material, provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding
of the discount is recognized in the Statement of Profit and
Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each
balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current
best estimate. Provisions are not recognized for future
operating losses.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible
obligation arising from past events, the existence of which
will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence
of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the
control of the Company or a present obligation that arises
from past events where it is either not probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable
estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on
contingent liability is disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements. Contingent assets are not recognized.

However, when the realization is virtually certain, then
the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is
recognized as an asset.

) Income Taxes:

Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax.
Current Income Tax:

Current Income Tax liabilities are measured at the amount
expected to be paid to the taxation authorities using the
tax rates and tax laws that are enacted or substantively
enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management
periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with
respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations
are subject to interpretation and creates provisions where
appropriate.

Deferred Tax:

Deferred Tax is provided, using the liability method, on
temporary differences between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial
statements. Deferred Income Tax is determined using the
tax rates and tax laws that are enacted or subsequently
enacted at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred Tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary
differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all
deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of
unused tax credits and unused tax losses only if it is
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to
utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a
legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against
current tax liabilities and the deferred tax balances relate to
the same taxation authority. Current tax asset and liabilities
are offset where the company has a legally enforceable
right and intends either to settle on net basis, or to realise
the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in the statement
of profit & loss, except to the extent that it relates to items
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly
in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets:

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether
there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any
indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for
an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset''s
recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is
the higher of an asset''s or Cash Generating Unit''s (CGU)
fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. It is
determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does
not generate cash inflows that are largely independent
of those from other assets or a 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. An impairment
loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash
flows are discounted to their present value using pre-tax
discount rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent
market transactions are taken into account, if no such
transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation
model is used.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the
carrying amount of the asset or a CGU is increased to
the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so
that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined had no
impairment loss been recognised for the asset or CGU in
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised
immediately in profit or loss.

B) Other Accounting Policies:

a) Functional and presentation of currency:

The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees,
which is the Company''s functional currency, and all
amounts are rounded to the nearest rupees in Lakhs,
unless otherwise stated.

b) Measurement of fair values:

A number of the Company''s accounting policies and
disclosures require measurement of fair values, for both
financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair
value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation
techniques as follows.

- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets
for identical assets and liabilities.

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

- Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not
based on observable market data (unobservable
inputs).

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the
Company uses observable market data as far as possible.
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or
a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy,
then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirely
in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest
level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Company recognises transfers between levels of
the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period
during which the change has occurred.

Further information about the assumptions made in
measuring fair values is included in the following notes:

- Refer Note 39 - financial instruments

c) Property, Plant and Equipment:

De-recognition

An asset''s carrying amount is written down immediately
to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised
upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are
expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gain
and loss on disposal or retirement of an item of property,
plant and equipment is determined by comparing the sales
proceeds with the carrying amount. These are recognised
in profit or loss.

d) Intangible assets:

Identifiable intangible assets are recognised when the
Company controls the asset and, it is probable that
future economic benefits attributed to the asset will flow
to the Company and the cost of the asset can be reliably
measured.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired
separately are measured on initial recognition at cost.
Following initial recognition, such intangible assets
are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and
accumulated impairment losses.

Amortisation methods and periods

Estimated useful life of Intangible assets are considered
as 5 years. Intangible assets are amortised over its useful
life using the straight-line method. The amortisation period
and the amortisation method for an intangible asset are
reviewed 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 asset are
considered to modify the amortisation period or method,
as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting
estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets
with finite life is recognised in the statement of profit
and loss.

Software is amortised over useful life of 5 years.
Derecognition:

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when
no future economic benefits are expected from use or
disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of
an intangible asset, measured as the difference between
the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the

asset, are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is
derecognised.

e) Investment property:

An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or
when the investment property is permanently withdrawn
from use and no future economic benefits are expected
from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on Derecognition
of the property (calculated as the difference between the
net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the
asset) is included in Statement of Profit and Loss in the
period in which the property is derecognized.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying
amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate,
only when it is probable that future economic benefits
associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other
repair and maintenance costs are recognised in statement
of profit and loss as incurred. Any gain or loss on disposal of
investment property calculated as the difference between
the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount
of the item is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Though the Company measures investment property using
cost-based measurement, the fair value of investment
property is disclosed in the note no 6.06 of the standalone
financial statements.

Depreciation

Depreciation on Investment Property has been provided
as per Written down Value method as per the useful life
indicated in Part ‘C'' of Schedule II of the Act which is 60
years.

f) Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and at
banks, deposits held at call with banks and other short¬
term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant
risk of changes in value.

g) Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent
with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating
decision maker.

The board of directors (“chief operating decision maker”
as defined under Ind AS 108) assesses the financial
performance and position of the Company and makes
strategic decisions.

h) Foreign currency transactions:

The transactions denominated in currencies other than
the Company''s functional currency (foreign currencies)
are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the

date of transaction. Monetary items denominated in
foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into
functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at
that date. Non-monetary items that are to be carried at
historical cost are recorded using exchange rate prevailing
on the date of transaction. Non- monetary items that
are carried at fair value, that are denominated in foreign
currencies, are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the
date when the fair value was determined. Any income or
expenses on account of exchange difference either on
settlement or on translation is recognised as profit or loss.

i) Financial Instrument:

Financial Assets

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a
financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity
instruments of another entity. Classifications of financial
instruments are in accordance with the substance of the
contractual arrangement and as per the definitions of
financial assets, financial liability and an equity instruments.
Financial Assets.

i) Initial recognition and measurement:

At initial recognition, the Company measures a
financial asset (other than financial asset at fair value
through profit or loss) at its fair value plus or minus,
transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of
financial assets carried at fair value through profit and
loss are expensed in the statement of profit & loss.

Subsequent measurement:

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial
assets are classified in four categories:

• Debt instrument at amortised cost:

Assets that are held within a business model for
collection of contractual cash flows where those
cash flows represent solely payments of principal
and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain
or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently
measured at amortised cost and is not part of a
hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss
when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest
income from these financial assets is included in other
income using the effective interest rate method.

• Debt instrument at fair value through other
comprehensive income (FVTOCI):

Assets that are held within a business model for
collection of contractual cash flows and for selling
the financial assets, where the asset''s cash flows
represent solely payments of principal and interest, are
measured at fair value through other comprehensive
income (FVTOCI).

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss for
FVTOCI debt instruments. For the purposes of
recognising foreign exchange gains and losses,
FVTOCI debt instruments are treated as financial
assets measured at amortised cost. Thus, the
exchange differences on the amortised cost are
recognised in profit or loss and other changes in the
fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in
other comprehensive income and accumulated under
the heading of ''Reserve for debt instruments through
other comprehensive income''. When the investment
is disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously
accumulated in this reserve is reclassified to profit or
loss.

• Debt instrument at fair value through profit and loss
(FVTPL):

Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for
amortised cost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL.
In addition, debt instruments that meet the amortised
cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria but are designated
as at FVTPL are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets
at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each
reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on
remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net
gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates
any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset
and is included in the ‘Other income'' line item.

• Equity instruments:

On initial recognition, the Company can make an
irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument
basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair
value in other comprehensive income pertaining to
investments in equity instruments. This election is not
permitted if the equity investment is held for trading.
These elected investments are initially measured at
fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they
are measured at fair value with gains and losses
arising from changes in fair value recognised in
other comprehensive income and accumulated in
the ‘Reserve for equity instruments through other
comprehensive income''. The cumulative gain or loss
is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the
investments.

Investments in equity instruments, other than
Investments in the nature of equity in subsidiaries, are
classified as at FVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably
elects on initial recognition to present subsequent
changes in fair value in other comprehensive income
as stated above.

ii) De-recognition:

A financial asset is primarily derecognised i.e.,
removed from Company''s financial statement when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from asset have
expired or

• The Company has transferred its right to receive
cash flows from the asset or has assumed an
obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without
material delay to a third party under ‘pass- through''
arrangement and either;

a) The Company has transferred substantially all
the risks and rewards of the assets,

b) The Company has neither transferred nor
retained substantially all the risks and rewards
of the asset, but has transferred control of the
asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to
receive cash flows from an asset or has entered
into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and
to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards
of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor
retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of
the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the
Company continues to recognise the transferred
asset to the extent of the Company''s continuing
involvement. In that case, the Company also
recognises an associated liability. The transferred
asset and the associated liability are measured on a
basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the
Company has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a
guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at
the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset
and the maximum amount of consideration that the
company could be required to repay.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the
difference between the asset''s carrying amount and the
sum of the consideration received and receivable and
the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised
in other comprehensive income and accumulated in
equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss
would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss
on disposal of that financial asset.

iii) Foreign exchange gains and losses:

The fair value of financial assets denominated in
a foreign currency is determined in that foreign
currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of
each reporting period.

For foreign currency denominated financial assets
measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the exchange
differences are recognised in profit or loss except for
those which are designated as hedging instruments in
a hedging relationship.

For the purposes of recognising foreign exchange
gains and losses, FVTOCI debt instruments are treated
as financial assets measured at amortised cost. Thus,
the exchange differences on the amortised cost are
recognised in profit or loss and other changes in the
fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in
other comprehensive income.

Financial Liabilities and equity instruments:

• De - recognition:

A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation
under the liability is discharged or cancelled or
expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced
by another from the same lender on substantially
different terms, or the terms of an existing liability
are substantially modified, such an exchange or
modification is treated as the de-recognition of the
original liability and the recognition of a new liability.
The difference in the respective carrying amounts is
recognised in profit or loss.

• Offsetting of Financial Instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and
the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if
there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset
the recognised amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle
the liabilities simultaneously.

j) Classification of assets and liabilities as
current and non - current:

The Company presents assets and liabilities in Balance
Sheet based on current/non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when it is:

a) Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or
consumed in normal operating cycle,

b) Held primarily for the purpose of trading,

c) Expected to be realised within twelve months after the
reporting period, or

d) 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 classified as current when:

a) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,

b) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading,

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

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

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition
of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or
cash equivalents. Based on the nature of activities of the
Company and the normal time between acquisition of
assets and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents,
the Company has determined its operating cycle as twelve
months for the purpose of classifications of its assets and
liabilities as current and non-current.

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

k) Other Income:

Interest income

Interest income from financial assets is recognised when
it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
Company. Such interest income is recognised using
effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate
is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts
through the expected life of financial assets to the carrying
amount of financial assets.

Interest on income tax refund is recognised on receipt of
refund order.

Dividends

Dividends are recognised when the shareholder''s right to
receive payment is established.

(l) Contract asset

A contract asset (Trade Receivable) is the right to
consideration in exchange for goods or services
transferred to the customer. If the Company performs
part of its obligation by transferring goods or services to
a customer before the customer pays consideration or
before payment is due, a contract asset is recognized for
the earned consideration when that right is conditional on
the Company''s future performance.

Contract liability

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods
or services to a customer for which the Company has
received consideration from the customer. If a customer
pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or
services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized
when the payment is received. Contract liabilities are
recognized as revenue when the Company performs under
the contract.

m) Employees benefits:

i) Short-term Employee Benefits:

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured
on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the
related service is provided. A liability is recognised
for the amount expected to be paid, if the Company
has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay
this amount as a result of past service provided by
the employee, and the amount of obligation can be
estimated reliably.

All employees benefits payable wholly within 12
months of rendering services are classified as Short
Term obligations. Benefits such as salaries, wages,
short term compensated absences, performance
incentives, expected cost of bonus and ex-gratia are
recognised during the period in which the employees
renders related services at the undiscounted amount
of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for
that service.

ii) Share-based payment transactions

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to
employees via Employee Stock Option Plan to the
subsidiary companies of The Phoenix Mills Limited,
the Parent.

The grant date fair value of options granted under the
Employee Option Plan is recognised as an employee
benefits expense with a corresponding increase
in equity, on a straight-line basis, over the vesting
period, based on the Company''s estimate of equity
instruments that will eventually vest. At the end of
each period, the company revises its estimates of the
number of options that are expected to vest based
on the non-market vesting and service conditions.
It recognises the impact of the revision to original
estimates, if any, in the Statement of profit and loss,
with a corresponding adjustment to other equity.

iii) Other long-term benefits

The Company has other long-term benefits in the
form of compensated absences. The present value of
the other long-term employee benefits is determined
based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit
credit method. The rate used to discount defined
benefit obligation is determined by reference to
market yields at the Balance Sheet date on Indian
Government Bonds for the estimated term of
obligations.

Actuarial gains or losses arising on account of
experience adjustment and the effect of changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognised as profit or loss.

Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of
other long-term benefits are recognised when the
curtailment or settlement occurs.

n) Borrowing Costs:

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition, construction or production
of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of
time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for
its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that
necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready
for their intended use or sale.

Interest income earned on the temporary investment of
specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying
assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for
such capitalisation.

Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which
they are incurred.

Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that are
incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds.

o) Earnings per share:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net
profit or loss (after tax) for the year attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net
profit or loss (after tax) for the year attributable to equity
shareholders and the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the year, both adjusted for the
effects dilutive potential equity shares.

4 Critical accounting estimates,
assumptions and judgements:

The preparation of the financial statements requires
management to make estimates, judgements and
assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets
and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as on
the date of financial statements and reported amounts of
income and expenses during the period. 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.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key
sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date
have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment
to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the
next financial year. 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.

In the process of applying the Company''s accounting
policies, management has made the following estimates

and judgements, which have significant effect on the
amounts recognized in the financial statement:

(a) Depreciation and useful lives of Property,
Plant and Equipment including Investment
Property

Property, plant and equipment including Investment
Properties are depreciated over the estimated useful lives
of the assets, after taking into account their estimated
residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful
lives and residual values of the assets annually in order
to determine the amount of depreciation to be recorded
during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual
values are based on the Company''s historical experience
with similar assets and take into account anticipated
technological changes. The depreciation for future periods
is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous
estimates.

(b) Investment Property

Fair value of Investment Properties is based on valuations
performed by an accredited registered valuer. The fair value
of the Company''s Investment properties has been arrived
at using discounted cash flow method. Under discounted
cash flow method, cash flow projections based on reliable
estimates of cash flow are discounted. The main inputs
used are rental growth rate, terminal yields and discount
rates which are based on comparable transactions and
industry data.

(c) Recoverability of trade receivables

Judgments are required in assessing the recoverability
of overdue trade receivables and determining whether
a provision against those receivables is required. The
Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment
loss allowance on its trade receivables. The provision
matrix is based on its historically observed default rates
over the expected life of the trade receivables and is
adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting
date, the historical observed default rates are updated and
changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

(d) Defined Benefit plan

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post¬
employment benefits and the present value of such
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, mortality rates and attrition rate. 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.

(e) Provisions:

Provisions are recognized in the period when it becomes
probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting
from past operations or events and the amount of cash
outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition
and quantification of provisions require the application of
judgement to existing facts and circumstances, which can
be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take
place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of
provisions are reviewed regularly and adjusted to take
account of changing facts and circumstances.

(f) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based
on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash
loss rates. The Company uses judgement 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.

Estimates and judgements are based on historical
experience and other factors, including expectations
of future events that may have a financial impact on the
Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. They are continually evaluated.

(g) Fair Value measurement:

When the fair values of financials 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, which
involve various judgements and assumptions.

(h) Tax expense and related contingencies:

The Company''s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant
judgements are involved in determining the provision for
income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/
recovered for uncertain tax positions. Significant judgement
is involved in determining house property income and
business income. Further, significant judgement is
exercised to ascertain amount of deferred tax asset
(DTA) that could be recognized based on the probability
that future taxable profits will be available against which
DTA can be utilized and amount of temporary difference
in which DTA cannot be recognized on want of probable
taxable profits.

(i) Assessment of carrying value of
investments in subsidiaries and associates:

In developing the assumptions and estimates in relation to
assessing the carrying value of Investments in Equity Shares
and Investments in Optionally Convertible Debentures
(OCD)/ Optionally Fully Convertible Debentures (OFCD)
of subsidiaries and associates, the Management has
considered the economic conditions prevailing as at the
date of approval of these financial statements and has
used internal and external sources of information to the
extent determined by it.

6.01 The Company''s investment properties consists of Retail Mall and Commercial properties in India. The Management has
determined that the investment properties consist of One class of asset - Retail Mall and Commercial Property - based on the
nature, characteristics and risks of each property.

6.02 Right on Leasehold Land consist of long term lease rights for the property situated at Phoenix Palladium, Senapati Bapat Marg,
Lower Parel, Mumbai.

6.03 Contractual Obligation

Refer note 46(a) for disclosure of contractual commitments for the acquisition of investment properties.

6.04 Capitalised Borrowing cost

No borrowing costs were capitalised during the current year and previous year.

6.05 Investment Property Pledge as security

Freehold Land and Building included in Investment Property Under Construction (excluding the building under construction at
Phoenix Palladium named as Rise II) are Secured by Registered Mortgage in respect of certain immovable properties situated
at Phoenix Palladium, Senapati bapat marg, Lower Parel, Mumbai and hypothecation of rentals receivable from licensees on
pari pasu basis against the borrowings.

Refer note no 20 and 23

The Company has created a charge, by way of mortgage, on 12,714.25 square meters of its land on Plot B for the loan taken
by its subsidiary, Pallazzio Hotels & Leisure Limited (PHLL) from the banks. The Company has developed a mixed use retail
structure on the said land. Loan amount outstanding for the year end is INR 24,243.39 lakhs (31 March 2024: INR 29,420.87
lakhs).

6.06 The Company''s investment properties consist of Retail Mall which has been determined based on the nature, characteristics
and risks of each property. As at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024, the fair values of the properties are INR 6,21,200 lakhs
and INR 5,61,120 lakhs respectively.

The fair value of investment property has been determined by external, independent registered property valuers, having
appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the property being
valued. A valuation model in accordance with that recommended by the international valuation standards committee had
been applied. The Company obtains independent valuations for its investment properties annually and fair value measurement
has been categorised as Level 3. The fair value has been arrived using discounted cash flow projections based on reliable
estimates of future cash flows considering growth in rental of 5% (31 March 2024 : 5%) and discount rate of 12% (31 March
2024 : 12.15%).

Note : The above amount does not include the unamortised processing fees of INR 404.74 Lakhs paid at the time of borrowing.
Above borrowing are secured by:

1) First Pari Passu Mortgage\charge on Undivided share of land to the extent of approximately 8,279.24 sq. metres in Plot

Interest is calculated on T-Bill / REPO spread / applicable margin. Average rate of Interest varies in the range of of
8.29% p.a. to 8.60% p.a. ( PY 8.58% p.a. to 8.63% p.a ) during the FY 2024-25. Interest is calculated on reference rate
as published by RBI applicable margin.

These gratuity plan typically expose to the company to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest risk, longevity risk and
salary risk.

Investment risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to
market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. For other defined benefit plans, the discount rate is
determined by reference to market yield at the end of reporting period on high quality corporate bonds when there is a deep
market for such bonds, if the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

Interest risk:

A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the
return on the plan debt investments.

Longevity risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of 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.

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 plan participants will increase the plan''s liability.

36 Share-based payment arrangements:

A. Description of share-based payment arrangements

i. Share option programmes (equity-settled)

The Company has granted stock options under the following employee stock option scheme:

1. 33,90,000 Equity Shares were reserved for allotment of equity shares under Employee Stock Option Scheme 2007
(‘ESOP 2007''). The ESOP 2007 was approved by the Shareholder on January 31,2008 and was valid for 10 (Ten) years
and thereafter no Grants were allowed be made under the ESOP 2007. All the options granted in ESOP 2007 were vested
as per the vesting plan and the last date for exercising the options granted on October 24, 2016 was October 23, 2024
the ESOP 2007 has expired and is no longer in effect.

During the year 6,550 Equity Shares have been issued and allotted to the eligible employees against exercise of Options
under ESOP 2007.

2. 31,00,000 Equity Shares are reserved for allotment of equity shares under Employee Stock Option Scheme 2018. Post
Bonus Issue, as on September 23, 2024, 59,11,612 Equity Shares are reserved for allotment of equity shares under
Employee Stock Option Scheme 2018.

During the year 74,653 Equity Shares have been issued and allotted to the eligible employees against exercise of Options

options granted under ESOP 2007 and options granted under the ESOP 2018 scheme carry no rights to dividends and
no voting rights till the date of exercise.

Fair valuation techniques:

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant
data available.

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

1. Fair value of the Quoted Equity Shares are based on price of equity share on stock exchange.

2. Fair value of the Mutual funds, Debt Securities and listed prefernces shares are based on published NAV price .

3. Fair value of unquoted equity shares and Compulsory Convertible Debentures is Fair value under level 3 of hierarchy.

4. Fair value of Long term Borrowings is calculated based on discounted cash flow.

5. Fair value of Financial Assets & Financial Liability (except Long term Borrowings) are carried at amortised cost and is not
materially different from it''s carrying cost.

40 Fair value hierarchy

The following is the hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

• Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The following table presents fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

‘Amount transferred to separate Unspent CSR A/c as per requirement of companies act 2013.

Contributed INR 270.49 Lakhs (31 March 2024 : INR 80.10 Lakhs) during the current financial year to related party and others.

The CSR unspent amount relates to ongoing projects that have been identified by the Board. The unspent amount for these
ongoing projects, which spans over a period of three years, has been transferred to the “Unspent CSR Account” and the
transferred amount shall be spent as per obligation within three financial years of the date of such transfer.

h) Provisions and contingencies:

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pretax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding of the discount is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Information on contingent liability is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Contingent assets are not recognized. However, when the realization is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, but it is recognized as an asset.

i) Income Taxes:

Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax.

Current Income Tax:

Current Income Tax liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities using the tax rates and tax laws that are enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and creates provisions where appropriate.

Deferred Tax:

Deferred Tax is provided, using the liability method, on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred Income Tax is determined using the tax rates and tax laws that are enacted or subsequently enacted at the end of the reporting period.

Deferred Tax liabilities are recognised for all temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all

deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax asset and liabilities are offset where the company has a legally enforceable right and intends either to settle on net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in the statement of profit & loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Deferred tax assets include Minimum Alternative Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws in India, to the extent it would be available for set off against future current income tax liability. Accordingly, MAT is recognised as deferred tax asset in the balance sheet when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the asset will be realised.

B) Other Accounting Policies:

a) Functional and presentation of currency:

The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees, which is the Company''s functional currency, and all amounts are rounded to the nearest rupees in Lakhs, unless otherwise stated.

b) Measurement of fair values:

A number of the Company''s accounting policies and disclosures require measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.

- Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

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

- Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirely in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

The Company recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following notes:

- Refer Note 39 - financial instruments

c) Property, Plant and Equipment:

De-recognition

An asset''s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset''s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gain and loss on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the sales proceeds with the carrying amount. These are recognised in profit or loss.

d) Intangible assets:

Identifiable intangible assets are recognised when the Company controls the asset and, it is probable that future economic benefits attributed to the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be reliably measured.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, such intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

Amortisation methods and periods

Estimated useful lives of Intangible assets are considered as 5 years. Intangible assets are amortised over its useful life using the straight-line method. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset are reviewed 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 asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Software is amortised over useful life of 5 years. Derecognition:

An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal, or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised.

e) Investment property:

An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on Derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the property is derecognized.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent costs are included in the asset''s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in statement of profit and loss as incurred. Any gain or loss on disposal of investment property calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss. Though the Company measures investment property using cost-based measurement, the fair value of investment property is disclosed in the note no 6.1) vi of the standalone financial statements.

Depreciation

Depreciation on Investment Property has been provided as per Written down Value method as per the useful lives indicated in Part ‘C'' of Schedule II of the Act which is 60 years.

f) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets:

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

asset''s recoverable amount. An asset''s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset''s or Cash Generating Unit''s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or a 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. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account, if no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or a CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or CGU in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

g) Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and at banks, deposits held at call with banks and other shortterm, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

h) Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.

The board of directors (“chief operating decision maker” as defined under Ind AS 108) assesses the financial performance and position of the Company and makes strategic decisions.

i) Foreign currency transactions:

The transactions denominated in currencies other than the Company''s functional currency (foreign currencies) are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated

into functional currency using the exchange rate prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items that are to be carried at historical cost are recorded using exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Non- monetary items that are carried at fair value, that are denominated in foreign currencies, are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Any income or expenses on account of exchange difference either on settlement or on translation is recognised as profit or loss.

j) Financial Instrument:

Financial Assets

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instruments of another entity. Classifications of financial instruments are in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and as per the definitions of financial assets, financial liability and an equity instruments. Financial Assets

i) Initial recognition and measurement:

At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset (other than financial asset at fair value through profit or loss) at its fair value plus or minus, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit and loss are expensed in the statement of profit & loss.

Subsequent measurement:

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:

• Debt instrument at amortised cost:

Assets that are held within a business model for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.

• Debt instrument at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):

Assets that are held within a business model for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets'' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FTVOCI).

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss for FVTOCI debt instruments. For the purposes of recognising foreign exchange gains and losses, FVTOCI debt instruments are treated as financial assets measured at amortised cost. Thus, the exchange differences on the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss and other changes in the fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of ‘Reserve for debt instruments through other comprehensive income''. When the investment is disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated in this reserve is reclassified to profit or loss.

• Debt instrument at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL):

Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL. In addition, debt instruments that meet the amortised cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria but are designated as at FVTPL are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss. The net gain or loss recognised in profit or loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the ‘Other income'' line item.

• Equity instruments:

On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income pertaining to investments in equity instruments. This election is not permitted if the equity investment is held for trading. These elected investments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the ‘Reserve for equity instruments through other comprehensive income''. The cumulative gain or loss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of the investments. As at the reporting date, the Company has not elected to measure its equity instruments at FVTOCI.

Investments in equity instruments, other than Investments in the nature of equity in subsidiaries, are classified as at FVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects on initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income as stated above.

ii) De-recognition:

A financial asset is primarily derecognised i.e., removed from Company''s financial statement when:

• The rights to receive cash flows from asset have expired or

• The Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under ‘passthrough'' arrangement and either;

a) The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the assets,

b) The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a passthrough arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Company''s continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the company could be required to repay.

On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset''s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognised in profit or loss if such gain or loss would have otherwise been recognised in profit or loss on disposal of that financial asset.

iii) Foreign exchange gains and losses:

The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting period.

For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the exchange differences are recognised in profit or

loss except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a hedging relationship.

For the purposes of recognising foreign exchange gains and losses, FVTOCI debt instruments are treated as financial assets measured at amortised cost. Thus, the exchange differences on the amortised cost are recognised in profit or loss and other changes in the fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income.

Financial Liabilities and equity instruments:

De - recognition:

A financial liability is de-recognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

Offsetting of Financial Instruments:

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

k) Classification of assets and liabilities as current

and non - current:

The Company presents assets and liabilities in Balance

Sheet based on current/non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when it is:

a) Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle,

b) Held primarily for the purpose of trading,

c) Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

d) 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 classified as current when:

a) It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle,

b) It is held primarily for the purpose of trading,

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

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

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents. Based on the nature of activities of the Company and the normal time between acquisition of assets and their realisation in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has determined its operating cycle as twelve months for the purpose of classifications of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent assets and liabilities.

l) Other Income:

Interest income

Interest income from financial assets is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company. Such interest income is recognised using effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of financial assets to the carrying amount of financial assets.

Interest on income tax refund is recognised on receipt of refund order.

Dividends

Dividends are recognised when the shareholder''s right to receive payment is established.

(m) Contract asset

A contract asset (Trade Receivable) is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs part of its obligation by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognized for the earned consideration when that right is conditional on the Company''s future performance.

Contract liability

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability

is recognized when the payment is received. Contract

liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company

performs under the contract.

n) Employees benefits:

i) Short-term Employee Benefits:

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the amount of obligation can be estimated reliably.

All employees'' benefits payable wholly within 12 months of rendering services are classified as Short Term obligations. Benefits such as salaries, wages, short term compensated absences, performance incentives, expected cost of bonus and ex-gratia are recognised during the period in which the employees renders related services at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

ii) Share-based payment transactions

Share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees via Employee Stock Option Plan to the subsidiary companies of The Phoenix Mills Limited, the Parent.

The grant date fair value of options granted under the Employee Option Plan is recognised as an employee benefits expense with a corresponding increase in equity, on a straight-line basis, over the vesting period, based on the Company''s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. At the end of each period, the company revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the Statement of profit and loss, with a corresponding adjustment to other equity.

iii) Other long-term benefits

The Company has other long-term benefits in the form of compensated absences. The present value of the other long-term employee benefits is determined based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount defined benefit obligation is determined by reference to market yields at the Balance Sheet date on Indian Government Bonds for the

estimated term of obligations.

Actuarial gains or losses arising on account of experience adjustment and the effect of changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised as profit or loss.

Gains or losses on the curtailment or settlement of other long-term benefits are recognised when the curtailment or settlement occurs.

o) Borrowing Costs:

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.

Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for such capitalisation.

Other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that are incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds.

p) Earnings per share:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss (after tax) for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss (after tax) for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year, both adjusted for the effects dilutive potential equity shares.

4. Critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgements:

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported balances of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as on the date of financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. 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.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. 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.

In the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following estimates and judgements, which have significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statement:

(a) Depreciation and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account their estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company''s historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

(b) Investment Property

Fair value of Investment Properties is based on valuations performed by an accredited registered valuer. The fair value of the Company''s Investment properties has been arrived at using discounted cash flow method. Under discounted cash flow method, cash flow projections based on reliable estimates of cash flow are discounted. The main inputs used are rental growth rate, terminal yields and discount rates which are based on comparable transactions and industry data.

(c) Recoverability of trade receivables

Judgments are required in assessing the recoverability of overdue trade receivables and determining whether a provision against those receivables is required. The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are

updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

(d) Defined Benefit plan

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other postemployment benefits and the present value of such 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, mortality rates and attrition rate. 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.

(e) Provisions:

Provisions are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of provisions require the application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions are reviewed regularly and adjusted to take account of changing facts and circumstances.

(f) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash loss rates. The Company uses judgement 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.

Estimates and judgements are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. They are continually evaluated.

(g) Fair Value measurement:

When the fair values of financials 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, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgements and assumptions.

(h) Tax expense and related contingencies:

The Company''s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions. Significant judgement is involved in determining house property income and business income. Further, significant judgement is exercised to ascertain amount of deferred tax asset (DTA) that could be recognized based on the probability that future taxable profits will be available against which DTA can be utilized and amount of temporary difference in which DTA cannot be recognized on want of probable taxable profits.

(i) Assessment of carrying value of investments in subsidiaries:

In developing the assumptions and estimates in relation to assessing the carrying value of Investments in Equity Shares and Investments in 0.0001% Optionally Convertible Debentures (OCD) of subsidiaries, the Management has considered the economic conditions prevailing as at the date of approval of these financial statements and has used internal and external sources of information to the extent determined by it.

Fair valuation techniques:

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant data available.

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

1 Fair value of the Quoted Equity Shares are based on price of equity share on stock exchange.

2 Fair value of the Mutual funds, debt securities and listed preferences shares are based on NAV price.

3 Fair value of unquoted equity shares and Compulsory Convertible Debentures is Fair value under level 3 of hierarchy.

4 Fair value of Long term Borrowings is calculated based on discounted cash flow.

5 Fair value of Financial Assets & Financial Liability (except Long term Borrowings) are carried at amortised cost and is not materially different from it’s carrying cost.

B) Fair Value hierarchy:

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of Company’s asset and liabilities, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3 as described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices / published NAV (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. It includes fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets and are based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). Fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on the Company specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable then instrument is included in level 2

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs). If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on the company specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable then instrument is included in level 2

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs). If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

This had posed significant challenges to the business of the Company. As per the directives of

the Central/State Governments it was mandated to close all business activities during the lockdown period and as a result of the same, operations of High Street Mumbai, was shut from March 24, 2020. The Central and State Governments had initiated steps to lift the lockdown and the Company had adhered to the same and it resumed its activities. Mall operations at High Street Phoenix, Mumbai had commenced. However, the State Government had imposed a further lockdown for a brief period . Post this, the mall had again begun its operations.

The Company''s operations have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic induced lockdowns..

In preparation of these financial statements, the Company has taken into account internal and external sources of information to assess the possible impacts of the pandemic, including but not limited to assessment of liquidity and going concern, recoverable values of its financial and non-financial assets.

In order to conserve its cash flows, the Company has availed moratorium offered by lenders as per the RBI guidelines on principal and interest for a period of 6 months.

The Company has also assessed the potential impact of Covid-19 on the carrying value of property, plant & equipment, trade receivables, and other current assets appearing in the financial statements of the Company.

In developing the assumptions and estimates relating to the future uncertainties in the economic conditions because of this pandemic, the Company as at the date of approval of financial statements and based on current estimates, expects to recover the carrying amounts of the assets including trade receivables as at 31.3.2021.

For recognition of revenues from mall operations, management has considered certain concessions/relief on rentals extended to its retailers/licensees for the period of lockdown as well as some further period considering the extended impact of the pandemic. Such concessions are determined based on ongoing discussions as well as those concluded and agreed with retailers/licensees on case to case basis. Considering the impact of such concessions given in lease rentals and other recoveries during the Financial Year 2020-21.

Considering the evolving nature of the pandemic, its actual impact in future could be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial statements. The Company will continue to closely monitor uncertainties arising out of material changes to the future economic conditions.

Fair valuation techniques:

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant data available.

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

1 Fair value of the Equity Shares are based on price quoted on stock exchange.

2 Fair value of unquoted equity shares and CCD''s is Fair value under level 3 of hierarchy Equity share in EWDL of '' 4,501.25 Lakhs & NCD of '' 10,000 Lakhs in TWDPL which are fully provided (Refer Note 40). Except same other CCD not being material carrying value is considered FV.

3 Fair value of Long term Borrowings is calculated based on discounted cash flow.

4 Fair value of Financial Assets & Financial Liability(except Long term Borrowings) are carried at amortised cost and is not materially different from it''s carrying cost.

B) Fair Value hierarchy:

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of Company''s asset and liabilities, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3 as described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices / published NAV (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. It includes fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets and are based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). Fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on the company specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable then instrument is included in level 2

48 Financial risk Management:

The Company''s activities expose it to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note explains the sources of risks which the entity is exposed to and how it mitigates that risk.

• Market risk:

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

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to insignificant foreign exchange risk as at the respective reporting dates. 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 is exposed to interest rate risk pertaining to funds borrowed at floating interest rates.

Almost 100% of the company''s borrowings are linked to BR Margin. With all other variables held constant, the following table demonstrates the impact of change in interest rate on borrowing cost on floating rate portion of loans.

Commodity and Other price risk

The Company is not exposed to the comodity and other price risk.

• Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company that a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, mutual funds, financial institutions and other financial instruments.

Trade and other receivables:

The Company extends credit to customers in normal course of business. The Company considers factors such as credit track record in the market and past dealings for extension of credit to customers. To manage credit risk, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of the customer, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and aging of accounts receivables. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored to make an assessment of recoverability. Receivables are provided as doubtful / written off, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Where receivables have been provided / written off, the Company continues regular followup , engage with the customers, legal options / any other remedies available with the objective of recovering these outstandings.

The Company is not exposed to concentration of credit risk to any one single customer since services are provided to vast specturm. The Company also takes security deposits, advances , post dated cheques etc from its customers, which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.

Cash and cash equivalents an other investments

The Company is exposed to counter party risk relating to medium term deposits with banks.

The Company considers factors such as track record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. Generally, the balances are maintained with the institutions with which the Company has also availed borrowings.

Cash and Cash equivalents, other Investments, Loans and other financial assets are neither past due nor impaired. Management is of the view that these financial assets are considered good and 12 months ECL is, accordingly, not provided.

• Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral obligations without incurring unacceptable losses.

The Company''s objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company relies on a mix of borrowings, capital infusion and excess operating cash flows to meet its needs for funds. The current borrowings are sufficient to meet its short to medium term expansion needs. Management monitors the Company''s net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.

The Company is required to maintain ratios (such as debt service coverage ratio and secured coverage ratio) as mentioned in the loan agreements at specified levels and also cash deposits with banks to mitigate the risk of default in repayments. In the event of any failure to meet these covenants , these loans become callable to the extent of failture at the option of lenders, except where exemption is provided by lender.

The primary objective of the Company''s capital management is to maximize the shareholder value. The Company''s primary objective when managing capital is to ensure that it maintains an efficient capital structure and healthy capital ratios and safeguard the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern in order to support its business and provide maximum returns for shareholder The Company also proposes to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

The requirement that the employee has to save in order to purchase shares under the share purchase plan has been incorporated into the fair value at grant date by applying a discount to the valuation obtained. The discount has been determined by estimating the probability that the employee will stop saving based on historical behavior.

Mar 31, 2018

1) Corporate Information:

The Company is a public limited company domiciled in India and is incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act applicable in India. The registered office of the company is located at 462, Senapati Bapat Marg, Lower Parel, Mumbai - 400 013.

The Company is engaged in the development and leasing of commercial and retail space. The principal place of business is at High Street Phoenix, 462, Senapati Bapat Marg, Lower Parel, Mumbai - 400 013.

These financial statements were approved and adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company in their meeting held on 8th May, 2018.

2) Basis of preparation of financial statements:

The Financial Statements have been prepared to comply in all material aspects with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended.

The Financial statements provide comparative information in respect of the previous year.

The significant accounting policies used in preparing financial statements are set out in Note 3 of the Notes on Financial Statements and are applied consistently to all the periods presented.

3. Use of significant accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions

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

(a) Depreciation and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account their estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company’s historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

(b) Investment Property

Management has assessed applicability of Ind AS 40- Investment property to the property held to earn income from licensee fees. In assessing such applicability, management has considered the ownership of assets, terms of license agreement, various services provided to the licensee etc. The Company considers these other services as significant in addition to the License fees charged. Based on such assessment, the management has considered the mall property as owner-occupied property and hence classified as Property, Plant & Equipment.

(c) Recoverability of trade receivables

Judgments are required in assessing the recoverability of overdue trade receivables and determining whether a provision against those receivables is required. The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.

(d) Defined Benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-employment benefits and the present value of such 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, mortality rates and attrition rate. 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.

(e) Treatment of Security Deposit for Lease Rentals

In assessing the applicability of Ind AS 32-Financial Instruments to security deposits received, the management has considered the substance of the transactions, terms and conditions of agreement and historical experience to conclude whether such security deposits meet the criteria of a financial liability. These deposits are primarily intended to secure compliance of the licensees’ obligations under the agreement and have no bearing on the license fees charged. Further, there is no contractual obligation to deliver cash or other financial asset to the said entity and can be adjusted against the dues, if any and therefore these have been treated as non- financial liability.

(f) Provisions:

Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of the liability require the application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions and liabilities are reviewed regularly and adjusted to take account of changing facts and circumstances.

(g) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash 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.

(h) Fair Value measurement:

When the fair values of financials 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, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgements and assumptions.

4. Standards Issued but not Effective:

On March 28, 2018, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) has notified Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contract with Customers and certain amendment to existing Ind AS. These amendments shall be applicable to the Company from April 01, 2018.

The obligation for leave encashment is recognised in the same manner as gratuity.

1. Salary escalation rate is arrived after taking into account regular increments, price inflation and promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand in employment market.

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

3. Attrition rate/ withdrawal rate is based on Company’s policy towards retention of employees, historical data and industry outlook.

4. Expected contribution to defined benefit plans for financial year 2018-19 is Rs.3/- Lakhs. (P.Y. Rs.1.50 Lakhs.)

5. The above information is certified by actuary.

ix) Sensitivity analysis:

Increase/ (decrease) on present value of defined benefits obligations at the end of the year:

These gratuity plan typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest risk, longevity risk and salary risk.

Investment Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. For other defined benefit plans, the discount rate is determined by reference to market yield at the end of reporting period on high quality corporate bonds when there is a deep market for such bonds; if the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

Interest risk

A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan debt investments.

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.

Salary risk

The present value of the defined plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability.

22 Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities:

Set out below is the comparison by class of carrying amounts and fair value of Company’s financial instruments that are recognised in the financial statements.

Fair valuation techniques:

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant data available.

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

1 Fair value of the Equity Shares are based on price quoted on stock exchange.

2 Fair value of unquoted equity shares and CCD’s is taken at net asset value.

3 Fair value of Long term Borrowings is calculated based on discounted cash flow.

4 Fair value of Financial Assets & Financial Liability(except Long term Borrowings) are carried at amortised cost and is not materially different from it’s carrying cost.

Fair Value hierarchy:

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of Company’s asset and liabilities, grouped into Level 1 to

Level 3 as described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices / published NAV (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. It includes fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets and are based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). Fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on the company specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable then instrument is included in level 2

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs). If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

There are no reclassification of financial instruments between level 2 and level 3 Reconciliation of fair value of measurement categorised within level 3 of the value hierarchy

23 Financial risk Management:

The Company’s activities expose it to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note explains the sources of risks which the entity is exposed to and how it mitigates that risk.

- Market risk:

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

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to insignificant foreign exchange risk as at the respective reporting dates.

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 is exposed to interest rate risk pertaining to funds borrowed at floating interest rates. Almost 100% of the company’s borrowings are linked to BR Margin. With all other variables held constant, the following table demonstrates the impact of change in interest rate on borrowing cost on floating rate portion of loans.

Increase/ (decrease) in Interest cost of Long term borrowings for the year:

Commodity and Other price risk

The Company is not exposed to the commodity and other price risk.

- Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company that a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, mutual funds, financial institutions and other financial instruments.

Trade and other receivables:

The Company extends credit to customers in normal course of business. The Company considers factors such as credit track record in the market and past dealings for extension of credit to customers. To manage credit risk, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of the customer, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and aging of accounts receivables. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored to make an assessment of recoverability. Receivables are provided as doubtful / written off, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Where receivables have been provided / written off, the Company continues regular followup, engage with the customers, legal options / any other remedies available with the objective of recovering these outstandings.

The Company is not exposed to concentration of credit risk to any one single customer since services are provided to vast spectrum. The Company also takes security deposits, advances , post dated cheques etc from its customers, which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.

Cash and cash equivalents an other investments

The Company is exposed to counter party risk relating to medium term deposits with banks.

The Company considers factors such as track record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. Generally, the balances are maintained with the institutions with which the Company has also availed borrowings.

Exposure to credit risk

The gross carrying amount of financial assets, net of impairment losses recognised represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk as at March 31.2018 and March 31, 2017 is as follows:

Cash and Cash equivalents, other Investments, Loans and other financial assets are neither past due nor impaired. Management is of the view that these financial assets are considered good and 12 months ECL is, accordingly, not provided.

- Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral obligations without incurring unacceptable losses.

The Company’s objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company relies on a mix of borrowings, capital infusion and excess operating cash flows to meet its needs for funds. The current borrowings are sufficient to meet its short to medium term expansion needs. Management monitors the Company’s net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.

The Company is required to maintain ratios (such as debt service coverage ratio and secured coverage ratio) as mentioned in the loan agreements at specified levels and also cash deposits with banks to mitigate the risk of default in repayments. In the event of any failure to meet these covenants , these loans become callable to the extent of failture at the option of lenders, except where exemption is provided by lender.

24. Capital management

The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to maximize the shareholder value. The Company’s primary objective when managing capital is to ensure that it maintains an efficient capital structure and healthy capital ratios and safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to support its business and provide maximum returns for shareholders. The Company also proposes to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the year ended March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017.

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued capital, share premium and all other equity reserves. Net debt includes, interest bearing loans and borrowings less cash and short term deposits.

25. Share-based payment arrangements:

A. Description of share-based payment arrangements

i. Share option programmes (equity-settled)

The Company has granted stock options under the following employee stock option scheme:

1. 30,00,000 Equity Shares are reserved for allotment of equity shares under Employee Stock Option Scheme 2011. During the year 1,99,998 Equity Shares have been issued and allotted to the eligible employees against exercise of Options under ESOS 2011.

2. 30,00,000 Equity Shares are reserved for allotment of equity shares under Employee Stock Option Scheme 2015. During the year Nil Equity Shares have been issued and allotted to the eligible employees against exercise of Options under ESOS 2015.

Each option when exercised would be converted into one fully paid-up equity share of Rs.2 each of the Company. The options granted under ESOP 2011 and options granted under the ESOS 2015 scheme carry no rights to dividends and no voting rights till the date of exercise.

B. Measurement of fair values

i. Equity-settled share-based payment arrangements”

The fair value of the employee share options has been measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Service and nonmarket performance conditions attached to the arrangements were not taken into account in measuring fair value.

The requirement that the employee has to save in order to purchase shares under the share purchase plan has been incorporated into the fair value at grant date by applying a discount to the valuation obtained. The discount has been determined by estimating the probability that the employee will stop saving based on historical behavior.

26. The previous year figures have been regrouped, reworked, rearranged and reclassified, wherever necessary and are to be read in relation to the amounts and other disclosures relating to the current year

The notes referred to above form an integral part of the Financial Statements


Mar 31, 2017

1. Use of significant accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions

In the process of applying the Company''s accounting policies, management has made the following estimates and judgments, which have significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:

(a) Depreciation and useful lives of Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, after taking into account their estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of the assets annually in order to determine the amount of depreciation to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful lives and residual values are based on the Company''s historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated technological changes. The depreciation for future periods is adjusted if there are significant changes from previous estimates.

(b) Investment Property

Management has assessed applicability of Ind AS 40- Investment property to the property held to earn income from licensee fees. In assessing such applicability, management has considered the ownership of assets, terms of license agreement, various services provided to the licensee etc. The Company considers these other services as significant in addition to the License fees charged. Based on such assessment, the management has considered the mall property as owner-occupied property and hence classified as Property, Plant & Equipment.

(c) Recoverability of trade receivables

Judgments are required in assessing the recoverability of overdue trade receivables and determining whether a provision against those receivables is required.

The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on its trade receivables.

The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analyzed.

(d) Defined Benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit plan and other postemployment benefits and the present value of such 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, mortality rates and attrition rate. 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.

(e) Treatment of Security Deposit for Lease Rentals

In assessing the applicability of Ind AS 32-Financial Instruments to security deposits received, the management has considered the substance of the transactions, terms and conditions of agreement and historical experience to conclude whether such security deposits meet the criteria of a financial liability. These deposits are primarily intended to secure compliance of the licensees'' obligations under the agreement and have no bearing on the license fees charged. Further, there is no contractual obligation to deliver cash or other financial asset to the said entity and can be adjusted against the dues, if any and therefore these have been treated as non- financial liability.

(f) Provisions:

Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past operations or events and the amount of cash outflow can be reliably estimated. The timing of recognition and quantification of the liability require the application of judgment to existing facts and circumstances, which can be subject to change. Since the cash outflows can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions and liabilities are reviewed regularly and adjusted to take account of changing facts and circumstances.

(g) Impairment of financial assets:

The impairment provisions for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected cash 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.

Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the Company and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. They are continuously evaluated.

(h) Fair Value measurement:

The Company measures financial instrument such as certain investments, at fair value at each balance sheet date.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

- In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

- In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant''s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

- Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

- Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable

- Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

The company has only one class equity shares having face value of '' 2 per share. Each holder of equity shares is entitled to one vote per share. Equity shareholders are also entitled to dividend as and when proposed by the Board of Directors and approved by Share holders in Annual General Meeting. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of Equity shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts which shall be in proportion to the number of shares held by the Shareholders.

Note 2

1. Salary escalation rate is arrived after taking into account regular increments, price inflation and promotion and other relevant factors such as supply and demand in employment market.

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

3. Attrition rate/ withdrawal rate is based on Company''s policy towards retention of employees, historical data and industry outlook.

4. Expected contribution to defined benefit plans for financial year 2017-18 is Rs, 1.50/- Lakhs.

5. The above information is certified by actuary.

ix) Sensitivity analysis:

Increase/ (decrease) on present value of defined benefits obligations at the end of the year:

These gratuity plan typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: investment risk, interest risk, longevity risk and salary risk. Investment Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. For other defined benefit plans, the discount rate is determined by reference to market yield at the end of reporting period on high quality corporate bonds when there is a deep market for such bonds; if the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.

Interest risk

A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the return on the plan debt investments.

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.

Salary risk

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

30. The Company is mainly engaged in real estate activities catering to Indian customers. Accordingly, the Company has only one identifiable segment reportable under Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments.

Managing Director (the ''Chief Operational Decision Maker'' as defined in Ind AS 108) monitors the operating results of the company''s business for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment.

The revenues from transactions with a single customer does not exceed 10 per cent or more of the company''s revenues.

3. The company provides units at its mall on License basis for which it charges license fee. The license agreements are generally for the period of 1 year to 5 years.

The Company maintains policies and procedures to value financial assets or financial liabilities using the best and most relevant data available.

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

1. Fair value of the Equity Shares are based on price quoted on stock exchange.

2. Fair value of unquoted equity shares and CCD''s is taken at intrinsic value.

3. Fair value of Long term Borrowings is calculated based on discounted cash flow.

4. Fair value of Financial Assets & Financial Liability(except Long term Borrowings) are carried at amortized cost and is not materially different from it''s carrying cost.

Fair Value hierarchy:

The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of Company''s asset and liabilities, grouped into Level 1 to Level

3 as described below:

Level 1: Quoted prices / published NAV (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. It includes fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets and are based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). Fair value of the financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on the company specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable then instrument is included in level 2

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs). If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

16. Financial risk Management:

The Company''s activities expose it to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. This note explains the sources of risks which the entity is exposed to and how it mitigates that risk.

- Market risk:

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

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to insignificant foreign exchange risk as at the respective reporting dates.

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 is exposed to interest rate risk pertaining to funds borrowed at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings.

Commodity and Other price risk

The Company is not exposed to the commodity and other price risk.

- Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company that a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, mutual funds, financial institutions and other financial instruments.

Trade and other receivables:

The Company extends credit to customers in normal course of business. The Company considers factors such as credit track record in the market and past dealings for extension of credit to customers. To manage credit risk, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of the customer, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and aging of accounts receivables. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored to make an assessment of recoverability. Receivables are provided as doubtful / written off, when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Where receivables have been provided / written off, the Company continues regular follow-up , engage with the customers, legal options / any other remedies available with the objective of recovering these outstanding. The Company is not exposed to concentration of credit risk to any one single customer since services are provided to vast specturm. The Company also takes security deposits, advances , post dated cheques etc from its customers, which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.

Cash and cash equivalents another investments

The Company is exposed to counter party risk relating to medium term deposits with banks.

The Company considers factors such as track record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. Generally, the balances are maintained with the institutions with which the Company has also availed borrowings.

Cash and Cash equivalents, other Investments, Loans and other financial assets are neither past due nor impaired. Management is of the view that these financial assets are considered good and 12 months ECL is, accordingly, not provided.

- Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present and future cash and collateral obligations without incurring unacceptable losses.

The Company''s objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and collateral requirements. The Company relies on a mix of borrowings, capital infusion and excess operating cash flows to meet its needs for funds. The current borrowings are sufficient to meet its short to medium term expansion needs. Management monitors the Company''s net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.

The Company is required to maintain ratios (such as debt service coverage ratio and secured coverage ratio) as mentioned in the loan agreements at specified levels and also cash deposits with banks to mitigate the risk of default in repayments. In the event of any failure to meet these covenants , these loans become callable to the extent of failure at the option of lenders, except where exemption is provided by lender.
