Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can
be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present
obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the
obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation,
its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is
material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from
a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received
and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
p. Earnings per equity share:
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the
Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings
per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by
the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and
also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive
potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the
equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares).
Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a
later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods
presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of
the standalone financial statements by the Board of Directors.
q. Operating Cycle:
Based on the nature of products / 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 12 months
for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.
r. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the
accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions
and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or
liabilities affected in future periods.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on
parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions
about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are
beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required
to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing
and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets
on unabsorbed depreciation/business loss including capital losses have been recognised to the extent
of deferred tax liabilities on taxable temporary differences available. It is expected that any reversals of
the deferred tax liability would be offset against the reversal of the deferred tax assets. The Company has
recognised deferred tax assets on unabsorbed losses to the extent of recovery expected in near future
against deferred tax liability. Further details on taxes are disclosed in Note no 13.
(b) Provisions and contingencies
The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance
with the applicable Ind AS. A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a
present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow
of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is
material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against
the Company. Guarantees are also provided in the normal course of business. There are certain obligations
which management has concluded, based on all available facts and circumstances, are not probable of
payment or are very difficult to quantify reliably, and such obligations are treated as contingent liabilities
and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements. Although there can
be no assurance regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings in which the Company involved, it
is not expected that such contingencies will have a material effect on its financial position or profitability
(Refer Note 28).
s. Application of New Accounting Pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended March 31,
2025, MCA has not notified any new standards or amendments to the existing standards applicable to the
Company.
The average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting period for Gratuity is 5 years
(March 31, 2024 : 5 years).
Risk analysis
Company is exposed to a number of risks in the defined benefit plans. Most significant risks pertaining to defined
benefits plans, and management''s estimation of the impact of these risks are as follows:
A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the Government Security rate will increase the present value of the liability
requiring higher provisions.
Longevity risk/ Life expectancy
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 at the end of the employment.
An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
Salary growth risk
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants.
An increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
The Company has recognized amount of ? 1.63 lakhs (Previous year: ? 1.53 lakhs) as expense in the Statement of Profit
and Loss in respect of compensated absences.
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The
Company is contesting the above demands and the management including its tax advisors believes that its position will
likely to be upheld in the appellate process. The management believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company''s financial position and results of operations.
Future cash outflows in respect of the above matters are determinable only on receipt of judgments / decisions pending
at various forums / authorities.
i. Demand arising on account of dispute in classification of finished goods against which Company is in appeal before
Various Appellate Authorities including courts.
ii. Towards penalty charges on account of disputed sales tax demand arising from Form 19 remaining to be submitted
to the tax authorities and other assessment.
iii. The Company has entered into tri-party agreement between itself, Holystar Natural Resources Private Limited
(Lessor) with Bank of Baroda in October 2011 for office premises on lease. The office was vacated in June 2012 and
paid the rent to the lessor until vacation of property. During the previous year, the Company has received an ex¬
party order from Mumbai Debt Recovery Tribunal for recovery an amount of ? 2,409.49 lakh in relation to aforesaid
office premises. The Company has filed miscellaneous application against an ex-party order received and stay was
granted.
iv. During the year, the Company received an order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) (CIT Appeals) for
the various assessment proceedings conducted against the Company under sections 153A of the Income-tax Act,
1961 for the Assessment Year commencing from 2013-14 to Assessment Year 2020-21, wherein the CIT Appeals
has dropped the various additions made by the Assessing Officer based on the search and seizures conducted
by the Income Tax Department. For the matters related to addition of income/ disallowance of expenses amount
aggregating to ? 308 Lakhs wherein the CIT Appeals upheld the additions made by the Assessing Officer, the
Company has filed an appeal with the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Ahmedabad and is hoping to receive a
favourable order and hence no provision for the same has been made in the books of accounts and considered as
a contingent liability.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged
in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For financial assets and financial
liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values while fair value of borrowings
is calculated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debts on similar terms, credit risk and
remaining maturities.
During the year, Total cumulative gains of ?1,032.92 lakhs (Previous year ?6,965.29 lakhs) on investment in equity shares
designated at FVTOCI have been transferred to Other Comprehensive Income.Total cumulative gains on derecognition
of equity instrument investments amounting to ?3,475.04 lakhs (?2,016.30 lakhs). The fair value of such investments on
the date of derecognition is ?11,701.28 lakhs (Previous year ?7,410.89 lakhs).
Fair value hierarchy
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity
instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the
stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period. The mutual funds are valued using the
closing NAV and listed equity instruments are being valued at the closing prices on recognised stock exchange.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over-
the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data
and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are
observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in
level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification asset included in
level 3.
There are no transfer between level 1, 2 and 3 during the year.
The Company''s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the
reporting period.
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk.
The Company''s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial
performance. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify
and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and
compliance with the same. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s
risk assessment and management policies and processes.
The Company''s financial risk management policy is set by the management. Market risk is the risk of loss of future
earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value
of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity
prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. The Company manages market risk which
evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The activities include
investment in mutual fund (debt and equity), Equity Shares, Debentures, Alternative Investments plans, Real Estate
Exposure through non-convertible debentures / as capital contributions in subsidiaries and other strategic investments.
The market value and future yield on debt fund will fluctuate because of changes in bank rate, RBI Policy and market
interest rates while market value of the equity instruments changes on account of performance of various industries/
investee in which the Company has made an investments. In order to optimize the Company''s position with regards
to appreciation in value of mutual fund and to manage the interest rate risk, it performs a comprehensive corporate
interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of floating rate and accruals financial instruments in its total
portfolio.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to
meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit
risk consist principally of cash and bank balances, inter-corporate deposits, trade receivables, investment in securities
including portfolio management schemes and derivative instruments.
The cash resources of the Company are invested with mutual funds, equity shares on evaluation of the credit risk. By
their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties.
Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each
counterparty.
The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty''s
potential failure to make payments. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing
counterparty credit risk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of the
counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The
demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry in which the customer operates, also has an
influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness
of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. An impairment analysis is
performed at each reporting date on an individual basis. The Company does not hold collateral as security for outstanding
trade receivables. The history of trade receivables shows a negligible provision for bad and doubtful debts.
The Company''s exposure to customers are not significantly identified since the Company deals with only those customers
who have good past track record.
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities, equity shares, mutual funds
and other investments and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any
losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures
to specific industry sectors. For derivative and financial instruments, the Company attempts to limit the credit risk by
only dealing with reputable banks and financial institutions having high credit-ratings assigned. The Company does
not expect any material credit risk on account of non-performance by counterparties to whom the financial assets are
receivable.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The
Company invests its surplus funds in various marketable securities and other financial instruments to ensure that
sufficient liquidity is available. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always
have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company requires funds both for short-term operational
needs as well as for long-term investment programmes mainly in growth projects. The Company generates sufficient
cash flows from the current operations which together with the available cash and cash equivalents and short-term
investments provide liquidity both in the short-term as well as in the long-term.
The Company also has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding with the banks. Considering surplus funds
invested in liquid investments, the Company does not perceive any liquidity risk. The Company remains committed to
maintaining a healthy liquidity, gearing ratio, deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet.
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual
maturities. The figures reflect the contractual undiscounted cash obligation of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in
market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive
instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-
sensitive financial instruments. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk,
interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of
investing and borrowing activities.
(i) Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes
in foreign exchange rates.
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate due to changes in
foreign exchange rates. The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge against its foreign currency
exposures relating to the recognised underlying liabilities and firm commitments. The Company''s policy is to hedge its
exposures above predefined thresholds from recognised liabilities and firm commitments. The Company does not have
any exposure in Foreign currency and does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company had long term and short term loans carrying a variable interest rate and hence loans expose the Company
to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate
risk based on its policies.
For details of the Company''s non-current and current borrowings, including interest rate profiles, refer to Note 10 and
14 (a) of these financial statements.
The Company''s investments in term deposits with banks are for short durations. The Company''s advances are fixed
interest bearing, and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rates risk.
Floating rate financial assets are largely mutual fund investments which have debt securities as underlying assets. The
returns from these financial assets are linked to market interest rate movements; however the counterparty invests in
the agreed securities with known maturity tenure and return and hence has manageable risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates related primarily
to the Company''s Short Term borrowings with floating interest rates.
The Company''s exposure to equity securities price risks arises from the investments held by the Company and classified
in the balance sheet through OCI or at fair value through profit or loss. The Company has given corporate guarantees
and pledged part of its investment in equity in order to fulfil the collateral requirements of the subsidiaries. The
counterparties have an obligation to return the guarantees/ securities to the Company. To manage its price risk arising
from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of portfolio is performed in
accordance with the limit set by the Company.
The Company has various debt oriented mutual funds units as well and prices are dependent upon the performance of
the underlying assets which are mainly corporate bonds/government securities. The Company regularly monitors the
performance of the mutual fund schemes.
The Company''s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence
and to sustain future development of the business. The Company monitors the return on capital as well as level of
dividend on its equity shares. The Company''s objective when managing capital is to maintain an optimal structure so
as to maximize shareholder''s value.
The Company is predominantly equity financed which is evident from the capital structure table. Further, the Company
has always been a net cash Company with cash and bank balances along with investment which is predominantly
investment in liquid and short term mutual funds being far in excess of debt.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company''s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that
it meets financial covenants attached to the borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting
the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches
in the financial covenants of any long term borrowing in the current period
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the current period.
33 As per Note 5(a) & 7(d), as at March 31,2025, outstanding loans granted to certain companies aggregate ?80,807.24
lakhs (March 31, 2024: ?75,088.35 lakhs). These loans have been granted by the Company in the ordinary course of

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
p. Earnings per equity share:
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any share splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the standalone financial statements by the Board of Directors.
q. Operating Cycle:
Based on the nature of products / 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 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities as current and non-current.
r. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company''s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Estimates and assumption
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets on unabsorbed depreciation/business loss including capital losses have been recognised to the extent of deferred tax liabilities on taxable temporary differences available. It is expected that any reversals of the deferred tax liability would be offset against the reversal of the deferred tax assets. The Company has recognised deferred tax assets on unabsorbed losses to the extent of recovery expected in near future against deferred tax liability. Further details on taxes are disclosed in Note no 13.
(b) Provisions and contingencies
The assessments undertaken in recognising provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with the applicable Ind AS. A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Guarantees are also provided in the normal course of business. There are certain obligations which management has concluded, based on all available facts and circumstances, are not probable of payment or are very difficult to quantify reliably, and such obligations are treated as contingent liabilities and disclosed in the notes but are not reflected as liabilities in the financial statements. Although there can be no assurance regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings in which the Company involved, it is not expected that such contingencies will have a material effect on its financial position or profitability (Refer Note 28).
s. Application of New Accounting Pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time.

The average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting period for Gratuity is 12 years (March 31, 2023 : 12 years).
Risk analysis
Company is exposed to a number of risks in the defined benefit plans. Most significant risks pertaining to defined benefits plans, and management''s estimation of the impact of these risks are as follows:
A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the Government Security rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provisions.
Longevity risk/ Life expectancy
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 at the end of the employment.
An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
Salary growth risk
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. An increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
The Company has recognized amount of ? 1.53 lakhs (Previous year: ? 2.61 lakhs) as expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss in respect of compensated absences.
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company is contesting the above demands and the management including its tax advisors believes that its position will likely to be upheld in the appellate process. The management believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company''s financial position and results of operations.
Future cash outflows in respect of the above matters are determinable only on receipt of judgments / decisions pending at various forums / authorities.
i. Demand arising on account of dispute in classification of finished goods against which Company is in appeal before Various Appellate Authorities including courts.
ii. Towards penalty charges on account of disputed sales tax demand arising from Form 19 remaining to be submitted to the tax authorities and other assessment.
iii. The Company has entered into tri-party agreement between itself, Holystar Natural Resources Private Limited (Lessor) with Bank of Baroda in October 2011 for office premises on lease. The office was vacated in June 2012 and paid the rent to the lessor until vacation of property. During the previous year, the Company has received an exparty order from Mumbai Debt Recovery Tribunal for recovery an amount of ? 2,409.49 lakh in relation to aforesaid office premises. The Company has filed miscellaneous application against an ex-party order received and stay was granted.
iv. During the year, the Company received an order from the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) (CIT Appeals) for the various assessment proceedings conducted against the Company under sections 153A of the Income-tax Act, 1961 for the Assessment Year commencing from 2013-14 to Assessment Year 2020-21, wherein the CIT Appeals has dropped the various additions made by the Assessing Officer based on the search and seizures conducted by the Income Tax Department. For the matters related to addition of income/ disallowance of expenses amount aggregating to ? 308 Lakhs wherein the CIT Appeals upheld the additions made by the Assessing Officer, the Company has filed an appeal with the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Ahmedabad and is hoping to receive a favourable order and hence no provision for the same has been made in the books of accounts and considered as a contingent liability.
The management assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, loans, trade receivables, other current financial assets, trade payables and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values while fair value of borrowings is calculated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debts on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.
Fair value hierarchy
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV and listed equity instruments are being valued at the closing prices on recognised stock exchange.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over-the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification asset included in level 3.
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
The Company''s financial risk management policy is set by the management. Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. The Company manages market risk which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The activities include investment in mutual fund (debt and equity), Equity Shares, Debentures, Alternative Investments plans, Real Estate Exposure through non-convertible debentures / as capital contributions in subsidiaries and other strategic investments. The market value and future yield on debt fund will fluctuate because of changes in bank rate, RBI Policy and market interest rates while market value of the equity instruments changes on account of performance of various industries/investee in which the Company has made an investments. In order to optimize the Company''s position with regards to appreciation in value of mutual fund and to manage the interest rate risk, it performs a comprehensive
corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of floating rate and accruals financial instruments in its total portfolio.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and bank balances, inter-corporate deposits, trade receivables, investment in securities including portfolio management schemes and derivative instruments.
The cash resources of the Company are invested with mutual funds, equity shares on evaluation of the credit risk. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.
The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty''s potential failure to make payments. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing counterparty credit risk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of the counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis. The Company does not hold collateral as security for outstanding trade receivables. The history of trade receivables shows a negligible provision for bad and doubtful debts.
The Company''s exposure to customers are not significantly identified since the Company deals with only those customers who have good past track record.
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities, equity shares, mutual funds and other investments and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors. For derivative and financial instruments, the Company attempts to limit the credit risk by only dealing with reputable banks and financial institutions having high credit-ratings assigned. The Company does not expect any material credit risk on account of non-performance by counterparties to whom the financial assets are receivable.
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the management in such a manner that it is exposed to the lowest possible risk. None of the Company''s cash equivalents, including term deposits with banks, were past due or impaired as at March 31, 2024.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company invests its surplus funds in various marketable securities and other financial instruments to ensure that sufficient liquidity is available. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company requires funds both for shortterm operational needs as well as for long-term investment programmes mainly in growth projects. The Company generates sufficient cash flows from the current operations which together with the available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments provide liquidity both in the short-term as well as in the long-term.
The Company also has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding with the banks. Considering surplus funds invested in liquid investments, the Company does not perceive any liquidity risk. The Company remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity, gearing ratio, deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet.
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities. The figures reflect the contractual undiscounted cash obligation of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities.
(i) Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge against
The Company had long term and short term loans carrying a variable interest rate and hence loans expose the Company to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk based on its policies.
For details of the Company''s non-current and current borrowings, including interest rate profiles, refer to Note 10 and 14 (a) of these financial statements.
The Company''s investments in term deposits with banks are for short durations. The Company''s advances are fixed interest bearing, and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rates risk.
Floating rate financial assets are largely mutual fund investments which have debt securities as underlying assets. The returns from these financial assets are linked to market interest rate movements; however the counterparty invests in the agreed securities with known maturity tenure and return and hence has manageable risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates related primarily to the Company''s Short Term borrowings with floating interest rates.
The Company''s exposure to equity securities price risks arises from the investments held by the Company and classified in the balance sheet through OCI or at fair value through profit or loss. The Company has given corporate guarantees and pledged part of its investment in equity in order to fulfil the collateral requirements of the subsidiaries. The counterparties have an obligation to return the guarantees/ securities to the Company. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of portfolio is performed in accordance with the limit set by the Company.
The Company is predominantly equity financed which is evident from the capital structure table. Further, the Company has always been a net cash Company with cash and bank balances along with investment which is predominantly investment in liquid and short term mutual funds being far in excess of debt.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company''s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings
There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any long term borrowing in the current period.
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the current period.

(A) This note provides an analysis of the Company''s income tax expense and related disclosures as required by Ind AS 12 - Income Taxes:
Tax losses includes business losses, short-term and long-term capital loss that can be carried forward under Income Tax Act, 1961 up to eight assessment years immediately succeeding the assessment year for which the loss was first computed and include unabsorbed depreciation which can be carried forward to indefinite period.
Deferred tax assets have been recognised as short-term capital losses as it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which these assets can be realised.
4. The assessment proceeding u/s 153A/ 153C of the Income Tax Act against the Company along with other group companies/LLP''s and promoters are completed. In respect of the completed assessment orders management has filed appeals against the said orders with CIT(Appeals) and the Management is of the opinion that there won''t be any liability in this regards and accordingly the demand in current finacial year of ? 1846.47 lakhs (previous financial year: ? 2,116 lakhs) raised by the Income tax authorities is considered as contingent liability.
5. The Government of India, on September 20, 2019 vide the taxation law (Amendments) ordinance, 2019 inserted new section 115BAA in the Income Tax Act, 1961 which provides an option to the Indian companies for paying tax at lower tax of 25.17% (inclusive of surcharge and cess) as per provisions / conditions defined in the said section. During the Quarter ended December 2020, the Company has reassessed its estimated future cash flows and tax liabilities having regard to current level of operations under pandemic, and has exercised the aforesaid option at the time of filing of Income Tax return for Assessment Year 2020-21. Consequently, Deferred tax asset pertaining to MAT credit of ? 2,706.36 lakhs, being no longer available and excess provision for income tax of ? 823.02 lakhs had been reversed upon Company availing the said option.
The management assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, loans, trade receivables, other current financial assets, trade payables and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values while fair value of borrowings is calculated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debts on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.
Fair value hierarchy
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV and listed equity instruments are being valued at the closing prices on recognised stock exchange.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over-the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification asset included in level 3.
There are no transfer between level 1,2and 3 during the year.
The Company''s policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
Special valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:
⢠the use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes of similar instruments
⢠the fair value of the interest rate swap is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves
⢠the fair value of the principal rate swap is determined using the forward exchange rate prevailing as at the balance sheet date.
⢠the fair value of the investments in Private and Other funds is determined using the fair value of the underlying assets.
31. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company''s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The Company''s primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established

The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company''s risk assessment and management policies and processes.
The Company''s financial risk management policy is set by the management. Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. The Company manages market risk which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The activities include investment in mutual fund (debt and equity), Equity Shares, Debentures, Alternative Investments plans, Real Estate Exposure through non-convertible debentures / as capital contributions in subsidiaries and other strategic investments. The market value and future yield on debt fund will fluctuate because of changes in bank rate, RBI Policy and market interest rates while market value of the equity instruments changes on account of performance of various industries/investee in which the Company has made an investments. In order to optimize the Company''s position with regards to appreciation in value of mutual fund and to manage the interest rate risk, it performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of floating rate and accruals financial instruments in its total portfolio.
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and bank balances, inter-corporate deposits, trade receivables,investment in securities including portfolio management schemes and derivative instruments.
The cash resources of the Company are invested with mutual funds, equity shares on evaluation of the credit risk. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.
The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty''s potential failure to make payments. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing counterparty credit risk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of the counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
(i) Trade receivables
The Company''s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis. The Company does not hold collateral as security for outstanding trade receivables. The history of trade receivables shows a negligible provision for bad and doubtful debts.
The Company''s exposure to customers are not significantly identified since the Company deals with only those customers who have good past track record.
(ii) Investments and other financial assets
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities, equity shares, mutual funds and other investments and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors. For derivative and financial instruments, the Company attempts to limit the credit risk by only dealing with reputable banks and financial institutions having high credit-ratings assigned. The Company does not expect any material credit risk on account of non-performance by counterparties to whom the financial assets are receivable.
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the management in such a manner that it is exposed to the lowest possible risk. None of the Company''s cash equivalents, including term deposits with banks, were past due or impaired as at March 31,2023.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company invests its surplus funds in various marketable securities and other financial instruments to ensure that sufficient liquidity is available. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company requires funds both for shortterm operational needs as well as for long-term investment programmes mainly in growth projects. The Company generates sufficient cash flows from the current operations which together with the available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments provide liquidity both in the short-term as well as in the long-term.
The Company also has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding with the banks. Considering surplus funds invested in liquid investments, the Company does not perceive any liquidity risk. The Company remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity, gearing ratio, deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet.
Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyse the Company''s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities. The figures reflect the contractual undiscounted cash obligation of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Company''s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities.
(i) Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge against its foreign currency exposures relating to the recognised underlying liabilities and firm commitments. The Company''s policy is to hedge its exposures above predefined thresholds from recognised liabilities and firm commitments. The Company does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company had long term and short termloans carrying a variable interest rate and hence loans expose the Company to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk based on its policies.
For details of the Company''s non-current and current borrowings, including interest rate profiles, refer to Note 11 and 15(a) of these financial statements.
The Company''s investments in term deposits with banks are for short durations. The Company''s advances are fixed interest bearing, and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rates risk.
Floating rate financial assets are largely mutual fund investments which have debt securities as underlying assets. The returns from these financial assets are linked to market interest rate movements; however the counterparty invests in the agreed securities with known maturity tenure and return and hence has manageable risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates related primarily to the Company''s Short Term borrowings with floating interest rates.
The Company''s exposure to equity securities price risks arises from the investments held by the Company and classified in the balance sheet through OCI or at fair value through profit or loss. The Company has given corporate guarantees and pledged part of its investment in equity in order to fulfil the collateral requirements of the subsidiaries. The counterparties have an obligation to return the guarantees/ securities to the Company. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of portfolio is performed in accordance with the limit set by the Company.
The Company has various debt oriented mutual funds units as well and prices are dependent upon the performance of the underlying assets which are mainly corporate bonds/government securities. The Company regularly monitors the performance of the mutual fund schemes.
The Company''s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Company monitors the return on capital as well as level of dividend on its equity shares. The Company''s objective when managing capital is to maintain an optimal structure so as to maximize shareholder''s value.
The Company is predominantly equity financed which is evident from the capital structure table. Further, the Company has always been a net cash Company with cash and bank balances along with investment which is predominantly investment in liquid and short term mutual funds being far in excess of debt.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company''s capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any long term borrowing in the current period
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the current period.

The sensitivity analyses above have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period and may not be representative of the actual change. It is based on a change in the key assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. When calculating the sensitivity to the assumption, the method (Projected Unit Credit Method) used to calculate the liability recognised in the balance sheet has been applied. The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared with the previous period.
The average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting period for Gratuity is 13 years (March 31, 2017 : 13 years).
Risk analysis
Company is exposed to a number of risks in the defined benefit plans. Most significant risks pertaining to defined benefits plans, and managementâs estimation of the impact of these risks are as follows:
Interest risk
A decrease in the interest rate on plan assets will increase the plan liability.
Longevity risk/ Life expectancy
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 at the end of the employment.
An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
Salary growth risk
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. An increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.
(ii) Leave encashment :
The Company has recognized amount of Rs.0.64 lakhs (previous year: Rs.3.86 lakhs) as expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss in respect of compensated absences.

Tax losses includes business losses, short term and long term capital loss that can be carried forward under Income Tax Act, 1961 up to eight assessment years immediately succeeding the assessment year for which the loss was first computed, including unabsorbed depreciation can be carried forward to indefinite period.
Deferred tax assets on carry forward unused tax losses have been recognised to the extent of deferred tax liabilities on taxable temporary differences available. It is expected that any reversals of the deferred tax liability would be offset against the reversal of the deferred tax asset.
Deferred income tax liabilities have not been recognized on temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries as it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The following table provides the details of income tax assets and income tax liabilities as of March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2017:
The management assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, loans, trade receivables, other current financial assets, trade payables and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For fianncial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values while fair value of borrowings is calculated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debts on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.
Fair value hierarchy
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV and listed equity instruments are being valued at the closing prices on recognised stock exchange.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over-the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification asset included in level 3.
There are no transfer between level 1, 2 and 3 during the year.
The Companyâs policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
Special valuation techniques used to value financial instrument include:
- the use of quoted market prices or dealer quotes of similar instruments
- the fair value of the interest rate swap is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves
- the fair value of the principal rate swap is determined using the forward exchange rate prevailing as at the balance sheet date.
- the fair value of the investments in Private and Other funds is determined using the fair value of the underlying assets.
4. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Companyâs activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The Companyâs primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance.

The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Companyâs risk assessment and management policies and processes.
The Companyâs financial risk management policy is set by the management. Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. The Company manages market risk which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The activities include investment in mutual fund (debt and equity), Equity Shares, Debentures, Alternative Investments plans, Real Estate Exposure through non-convertible debentures / as capital contributions in subsidiaries and other strategies investments. The market value and future yield on debt fund will fluctuate because of changes in bank rate, RBI Policy and market interest rates while market value of the equity instruments changes on account of performance of various industries/investee in which the Company has made an investments. In order to optimize the Companyâs position with regards to appreciation in value of mutual fund and to manage the interest rate risk, it performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of floating rate and accruals financial instruments in its total portfolio.
a. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and bank balances, inter-corporate deposits, trade receivables, investment in securities including portfolio management schemes and derivative instruments.
The cash resources of the Company are invested with mutual funds, equity shares an evaluation of the credit risk. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.
The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterpartyâs potential failure to make payments. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets. The objective of managing counterparty credit risk is to prevent losses in financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of the counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.
(i) Trade receivables
The Companyâs exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis. The Company does not hold collateral as security for outstanding trade receivables. The history of trade receivables shows a negligible provision for bad and doubtful debts except in previous year where the Company has to write off significant trade receivables on account of non recoverability of it.
The Companyâs exposure to customers are not significantly identified since the Company deal with only those customers who has good past track records. Refer Note 34 presented for individual customer with whom the Company has 10% or more revenue.
(ii) Investments and other financial assets
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities, equity shares, mutual funds and other investments and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors. For derivative and financial instruments, the Company attempts to limit the credit risk by only dealing with reputable banks and financial institutions having high credit-ratings assigned. The Company does not expect any material credit risk on account of non-performance by counterparties to whom the financial assets receivables.
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the management in such a manner that it is exposed to the lowest possible risk. None of the Companyâs cash equivalents, including term deposits (i.e., certificates of deposit) with banks, were past due or impaired as at March 31, 2018.
b. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company invests its surplus funds in various marketable securities and other financial intruments to ensure that the sufficient liquidity is available. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company requires funds both for short-term operational needs as well as for long-term investment
programmes mainly in growth projects. The Company generates sufficient cash flows from the current operations which together with the available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments provide liquidity both in the short-term as well as in the longterm.
The Company also has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding with the banks. Considering surplus funds invested in liquid investments, the Company does not perceive any liquidity risk. The Company remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity, gearing ratio, deleveraging and strengthening the balance sheet.
Maturities of financial liabilities
The tables below analyze the companyâs financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities.
c. Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Companyâs exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities.
(i) Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Companyâs foreign exchange risk arises from its foreign currency borrowings (primarily in USD and JPY). As a result, if the value of the Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Companyâs liability measured in Indian rupees may decrease. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future.
Consequently, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as principal swap contracts, to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in respect of its forecasted cash flows. The Company has hedged its foreign currency borrowing in USD through derivative contracts entered with the counterparties.
The following table sets forth information relating to foreign currency exposure (other than risk arising from derivatives disclosed below):
The sensitivity of profit or loss due to changes in the exchange rates arises mainly from non-derivative foreign currency denominated financial instruments (mainly financial instruments denominated in USD and JPY currencies). The below sensitivity does not include the impact of foreign currency principal swaps contracts which largely mitigate the risk. The same is summarized as below:
(ii) 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 Companyâs exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Companyâs long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The borrowings of the Company are principally denominated in Indian Rupees, US dollars and Japanese Yen with mix of fixed and floating rates of interest. The US dollar and Japanese Yen debt is linked to LIBOR and the Indian Rupee debt is principally at fixed interest rates which are short term in nature. The Company has a policy of selectively using interest rate swaps and other derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. These exposures are reviewed by appropriate levels of management at regular interval. The Company invests in debt mutual funds and advances to other counterparties, to achieve the Companyâs goal of maintaining liquidity, carrying manageable risk and achieving satisfactory returns.
The Company had foreign currency loans amounting to Rs.5,796.30 lakhs as at March 31, 2018 and Rs.7,688.58 lakhs as at March 31, 2017 carrying a variable interest rate and hence loans expose the Company to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk based on its policies.
For details of the Companyâs non-current and current borrowings, including interest rate profiles, refer to Note 10 and 13(a) of these financial statements.
The Companyâs investments in term deposits (i.e., certificates of deposit) with banks are for short durations. The Companyâs advances are fixed interest bearing, and therefore do not expose the Company to significant interest rates risk.
Floating rate financial assets are largely mutual fund investments which have debt securities as underlying assets. The returns from these financial assets are linked to market interest rate movements; however the counterparty invests in the agreed securities with known maturity tenure and return and hence has manageable risk.
Interest rate risk exposure
The exposure of the companyâs borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows:
(iii) Equity risk
The Companyâs exposure to equity securities price risks arises from the investments held by the Company and classified in the balance sheet through OCI or at fair value through profit or loss. The Company has given corporate guarantees and pledged part of its investment in equity in order to fulfil the collateral requirements of the subsidiaries. The counterparties have an obligation to return the guarantees/ securities to the Company. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of portfolio is performed in accordance with the limit set by the Company.
The below sensitivity summarizes the impact of increase/decrease of the equity prices and profit for the period. The same is summarized as below:
The Company has various debt oriented mutual funds units as well and prices are dependent upon the performance of the underlying assets which are mainly corporate bonds/government securities. The Company regularly monitors the performance of the mutual fund schemes.
(iv) Derivative financial instruments
The Company also enters into interest rate currency swap and Principal swap agreements, mainly to manage exposure on its variable interest rate and exchange rate. The Company uses interest rate derivatives or currency swaps to hedge exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on principal and interest payments for borrowings denominated in foreign currencies. These financial exposures are managed by the Company in accordance with the market outlook at the time of entering into the transactions.
Fair value of derivative financial instruments are determined using valuation techniques based on information derived from observable market data.
5. Capital Management:
The Companyâs policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Company monitors the return on capital as well as level of dividend on its equity shares. The Companyâs objective when managing capital is to maintain and optimal structure so as to maximize shareholderâs value.
The capital structure is as follows:
The Company is predominantly equity financed which is evident from the capital structure table. Further, the Company has always been a net cash company with cash and bank balances along with investment which is predominantly investment in liquid and short term mutual funds being far in excess of debt.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Companyâs capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any long term borrowing in the current period.
No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the current period.
6.

An incessantly lower Plant Load Factor (PLF) of windmills then expected over last few years of operations due to non-availability of grid has triggered assessment of recoverable amount of the windmills in terms of Accounting Standard (AS) 28, Impairment of Assets, as these are factors indicating probable impairment. For the purpose of the said assessment, windmills are considered as a cash generating unit. The ''Recoverable Amount'' of windmills has been measured on the basis of its Value in Use by estimating the future cash inflows over the estimated useful life of the windmills since it would be more appropriate to consider. The cash flow projections are based on estimates and assumptions relating to tariff, operational performance of the windmills, terminal value etc. which are considered reasonable by the management and are as follows:
- Plant Loading Factor -12.5% to 14.1% considered over the useful life of the windmill
- Pre-tax nominal discount rate of 13.7% derived from the post-tax weighted average cost of capital.
On a careful evaluation of the aforesaid factors, the management has concluded that the Recoverable Amounts of the windmills are lower than their carrying amounts as at March 31, 2016. Accordingly, the Company has recognized impairment loss of Rs. 620.25lacs (Previous year: Rs.1,075.69 lacs) during the year in respect of the windmills. In case, these estimates and assumptions change in future, there could be a corresponding impact on the Recoverable Amounts of the windmills.

their carrying amounts as at March 31, 2015. Accordingly, the Company
has recognized impairment loss of Rs.1,075.69 lacs during the year in
respect of the windmills. In case the estimates and assumptions change
in future, there would be a corresponding impact on the Recoverable
Amounts of the windmills. The impairment loss on fixed assets relate to

Agreement (PPA) in 2012 with State Distribution Corporations (Discoms)
for a period ranging from 13-25 years based on a substantially fixed
tariff per unit.
An incessantly lower Plant Load Factor (PLF) of windmills then expected
over last few years of operations due to non-availability of grid and
land related issues has triggered assessment of recoverable amount of
the windmills in terms of Accounting Standard (AS) 28, Impairment of
Assets. For the purpose of said assessment, windmills considered as a
cash generating unit. For the purpose of cash generating unit,
management has concluded that each of the windmill cannot be a cash
generating unit, windmill farm at each location would be an appropriate
cash generating unit.The ''Recoverable Amount'' of windmills measured on
the basis of its Value in Use by estimating the future cash inflows
over the estimated useful life of the windmills. The cash flow
projections are based on estimates and assumptions relating to tariff,
operational performance of the windmills, recovery of damages from
supplier for under performance of the windmills, inflation, terminal
value etc., which are considered reasonable by the management.
On a careful evaluation of the aforesaid factors, the management has
concluded that the Recoverable Amounts of the windmills are higher than
their carrying amounts as at 31st March, 2014. In case, these estimates
and assumptions change in future, there could be a corresponding impact
on the Recoverable Amounts of the windmills.
