(m) Provisions and Contingencies
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are
accounted for and disclosed in accordance with Ind AS 37,
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
(i) Provisions
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. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre- tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Where the Company expects some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision will be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognized when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the entity settles the obligation. The reimbursement is treated as a separate asset.
Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
(ii) Contingent Liabilities
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.
(iii) Contingent Assets
Contingent asset being a possible asset that arises 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, is not recognized but disclosed in the financial statements.
(n) Employee Benefits
Employee benefits are accounted for in accordance with
Ind AS 19, Employee Benefits.
(i) Short-Term Obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries including non¬ monetary benefits that are expected to be settled within the operating cycle after the end of the period in which the employees render the related services are recognized in the period in which the related services are rendered and are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid.
(ii) Other Long-Term Employee Benefit Obligations
Liabilities for leave encashment and compensated absences which are not expected to be settled wholly within the operating cycle after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows which are expected to be paid using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using the market yields at the end of the reporting period on Government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurement as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in profit or loss.
(iii) Post-Employment Obligations
(iii) (a) Defined Benefit Plans
The Company has defined benefit plans namely gratuity for employees. The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in profit or loss.
Remeasurement of gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognized immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.
(iii) (b) Defined Contribution Plans
The Company has defined contribution plans for post retirements benefits, namely, Employee Provident Fund Scheme administered through Provident Fund Commissioner. The Company's contribution is charged to revenue every year. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The Company's contribution to State Plans namely Employees' State Insurance Fund and Employees' Pension Scheme are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss every year.
(o) Share-based Payments
As at 31 March 2026, the Company did not have any employee stock option plan or other share-based payment arrangement granted or outstanding. Accordingly, Ind AS 102, Share-based Payment, is not applicable for recognition or measurement in these financial statements.
(p) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash flows and cash and cash equivalents are presented in accordance with Ind AS 7, Statement of Cash Flows.
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheet comprise of cash at banks and on hand and deposits with a maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(q) Taxes
Current tax and deferred tax are accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 12, Income Taxes.
Taxes comprise of current income tax and deferred tax.
(i) Current Income Tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
(ii) Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profits. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and tax losses incurred to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
(iii) Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in statement of profit & loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the income taxes are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
(iv) Offsetting
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
(r) Leases
Leases are accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 116, Leases.
The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for Building & Warehousing facilities. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:
• The contract involves the use of an identified asset
• The Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and
• The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short term leases) and leases of low value assets. These short-term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight¬ line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability and reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.
A lease liability is remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate used to determine lease payments. The remeasurement normally also adjusts the leased assets.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
(s) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Impairment of non-financial assets is assessed and recognised in accordance with Ind AS 36, Impairment of 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 assets or cash-generating units (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or Company of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining net selling price, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded companies or other available fair value indicators.
An assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such an indication exists, the Company estimates the assets or CGU's recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the statement of profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase.
(t) Fair Value Measurement
Fair value measurement and related disclosures are made in accordance with Ind AS 113, Fair Value Measurement.
The Company measures certain financial instruments 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 Standalone 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 Standalone financial statements on 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 material to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of
the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
(i) Investments in Subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 27, Separate Financial Statements.
Investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any, in accordance with Ind AS 27 - Separate Financial Statements. The carrying amount of such investments is reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the investment is estimated and an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
(u) Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised and measured in accordance with Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments.
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial instruments (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss. Subsequently, financial instruments are measured according to the category in which they are classified.
(i) Financial Assets
(i) (a) Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets (other than equity investment in subsidiaries) are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognized on the trade
date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
(i) (b) Subsequent measurement
All recognized financial assets are subsequently measured in their entirety at either amortized cost using the effective interest method or fair value, depending on the classification of the financial assets.
(i) (c) Classification of Financial Assets
Classification of financial assets depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
• those measured at amortized cost
The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
A financial asset that meets the following two conditions is measured at amortized cost unless the asset is designated at fair value through profit or loss under the fair value option:
• Business model test: the objective of the Company's business model is to hold the financial asset to collect the contractual cash flows.
• Cash flow characteristic test: the contractual term of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A financial asset that meets the following two conditions is measured at fair value through other comprehensive income unless the asset is designated at fair value through profit or loss under the fair value option:
• The business model test: the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting cash flows and selling financial assets.
• Cash flow characteristic test: the contractual term of the financial asset gives rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
All other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Equity investment in Other Entities at fair value through Profit or loss (FVTPL)
Investment in equity instrument of other than subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are classified at fair value through profit or loss, unless the Company irrevocably elects on initial recognition to present subsequent changes in fair value in other comprehensive income for investments in equity instruments which are not held for trading.
Financial assets that do not meet the amortized cost criteria or fair value through other comprehensive income criteria are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset that meets the amortized cost criteria or fair value through Other comprehensive income criteria may be designated as at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition if such designation eliminates or materially reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise from measuring assets and liabilities or recognizing the gains or losses on them on different bases.
Financial assets which are fair valued through profit or loss are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on Remeasurement recognized in profit or loss.
(i) (d) Trade & Other Receivables
Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost less provision for impairment.
(i) (e) Impairment of Financial Assets
The Company assesses impairment based on expected credit losses (ECL) model to the following:
• financial assets measured at amortized cost
• financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
• the twelve month expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on the financial instruments that are possible within twelve months after the reporting date); or
• full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default event over the life of the financial instrument).
In case of trade receivables, the Company follows a simplified approach wherein an amount equal to lifetime ECL is measured and recognized as loss allowance. The Company computes ECL based on a provision matrix. The provision matrix is prepared based on historically observed default rates over the expected life of trade receivables and is adjusted for forward¬ looking estimates.
(i) (f) Derecognition of Financial Assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
• The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
• Retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients or
• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset has expired
(ii) Financial Liabilities
(ii) (a) Classification of Debt or Equity
Debt or equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
(ii) (b) Equity Instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
(ii) (c) Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest
rate method or at fair value through Statement of Profit and Loss
(ii) (d) Trade and Other Payables
Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods or services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid.
(ii) (e) Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest rate method.
Borrowings are removed from the balance sheet when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired.
The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in the Statement of Profit Loss.
(ii) (f) Derecognition of Financial Liabilities
The Company derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company's obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired.
(iii) Offsetting Financial Instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet where there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The legally enforceable right must not be contingent on future events and must be enforceable in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
v) Earnings Per Share:
Earnings per share is computed in accordance with Ind AS 33, Earnings Per Share.
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period and for all periods presented is adjusted for events, such as
bonus shares, other than conversion of potential equity shares, that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources. Diluted earnings per share is computed by adjusting the net profit attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares, if any.
(w) Dividend Distribution:
Dividend distributions are recognised in accordance with the applicable requirements of Ind AS.
Interim dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are approved by the Board of Directors. Final dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are approved by the shareholders of the Company. Dividend recommended by the Board of Directors after the reporting date is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements and is not recognised as a liability as at the reporting date.
(x) Recent pronouncements:
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified amendments to the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 which are applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. These amendments primarily relate to Ind AS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, dealing with lack of exchangeability of foreign currencies; Ind AS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, relating to classification of liabilities as current or non-current and related covenant disclosures; Ind AS 7, Statement of Cash Flows, and Ind AS 107, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, relating to supplier finance arrangements; and Ind AS 12, Income Taxes, relating to international tax reform / Pillar Two model rules.
Based on the evaluation carried out by the Company, the amendments applicable for the year ended 31 March 2026 do not have any material impact on the recognition, measurement, presentation or disclosure of amounts reported in these financial statements.
Further, certain amendments to Ind AS 1 relating to removal of specific carve-outs for classification of liabilities are applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2026. The Company has evaluated the likely impact of these amendments based on its present facts and circumstances. Considering that the Company does not have any covenant-linked financial liabilities outstanding as at 31 March 2026 which would materially affect classification, presentation or disclosure of liabilities, the said amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
(y) Operating Segment
Operating segments are identified and disclosed in accordance with Ind AS 108, Operating Segments.
The Company operates in a single reportable business segment, i.e., manufacture and sale of helmets and accessories, in accordance with Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments. The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), being the Managing Director/Board of Directors, reviews the operations of the Company as one operating segment. Accordingly, no separate segment information is required to be presented.
(z) Government grants
Government grants are accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance.
The Company recognizes government grants only when there is reasonable assurance that the conditions attached
to them shall be complied with and the grants will be received. Grants related to assets are treated as deferred income and are recognized as other operating income in the Statement of profit & loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful life of the asset.
Exports entitlements are recognized when the right to receive credit as per the terms of the schemes is established in respect of the exports made by the Company and when there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
(aa) Previous year figures have been regrouped/reclassified wherever necessary to conform to the current year presentation.
Receivables is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. Contract liability is the company's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the company has received consideration from the customer in advance.
Note No: 25.5 Payment Terms
For Domestic Transactions - The company offers specific credit period to customers and payment for the sale is made as per the agreed credit terms, which may include advance payment in certain cases. The credit term ranges between 0 to 180 days from the date of invoice/goods receipt date.
For Export Transactions - Exports are made generally on advance, Letter of Credit (LC), Document against Payment. For certain customers, the credit term ranges between 0 to 180 days from the date of invoice/goods receipt date.
Note No: 25.6 Performance Obligations
The performance obligation for sale of product is considered as fulfilled according to the terms agreed with the respective customer. Note No: 25.7
The performance obligations are part of contracts that have an original expected duration of less than one year. Therefore, the company has used the practical expedient to not disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations.
Note No: 32 Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic EPS amounts are calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders of the Company by weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing profit attributable to equity holders of the Company by weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of Equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential Equity shares into Equity shares, unless the effect of potential dilutive equity share is antidilutive.
The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for events such as bonus issue that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
Nature of Activities taken under CSR :
The CSR activities undertaken by the group during the year primarily relate to promoting healthcare, including preventive healthcare and providing medical assistance and support for surgeries for underprivileged children and adults; promoting education including and by supporting school fees and after-school tuitions; supporting menstrual hygiene and village sanitation initiatives; and environmental sustainability initiatives, including the maintenance of public spaces.
Terms and conditions of transactions with related parties
The transactions with related parties are made on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions. Outstanding balances at the year-end are unsecured and settlement occurs through banking channel. There have been no guarantees provided or received for any related party receivables or payables. Trade receivables include Rs. 31.97 million due from related parties as at 31 March 2026 (Rs. 17.53 million as at 31st March, 2025). These balances are unsecured and arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company applies a collective ECL model to all trade receivables, and impairment, if any, is not separately identified for related parties. No significant increase in credit risk has been observed for these balances. This assessment is undertaken each financial year through examining the financial position of the related party and the market in which the related party operates.
(B) Defined Benefit Plans and Other Long Term Benefits as per Ind AS 19 Employee Benefits:
With effect from 21 November 2025, the Government of India has implemented the four Labour Codes, including the Code on Social Security, 2020, which subsumes, inter alia, the erstwhile Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. During the year, the Company evaluated the impact of the Labour Codes on its employee benefit obligations, including gratuity and other applicable long-term employee benefits. The actuarial valuation obtained by the Company for the year ended 31 March 2026 has considered the applicable provisions of the Labour Codes to the extent relevant. Based on such assessment and valuation, the impact on the financial statements is not material and has been recognised wherever applicable.
(x) Risk exposure
The gratuity scheme is a final salary Defined Benefit Plan that provides for lump sum payment made on exit either by way of retirement, death, disability, voluntary withdrawal. The benefits are defined on the basis of final salary and the period of service and paid as lump sum at exit. The plan design means the risk commonly affecting the liabilities and the financial results are expected to be:-
(a) Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds, if bond yield falls, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.
(b) Salary inflation risk: Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
(c) Demographic risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to long career employee.
Note No: 39 Lease related disclosures
The Company has lease for manufacturing facility. With the exception of short-term leases, leases of low-value underlying assets and leases with variable lease payments, the lease is reflected on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Variable lease payments which do not depend on an index or a rate are excluded from the initial measurement of the lease liability and right of use assets. The Company classifies its right-of-use assets in a consistent manner to its property, plant and equipment.
The lease generally imposes a restriction that, unless there is a contractual right for the Company to sublease the asset to another party, the right-of-use asset can only be used by the Company. It also contains an option to extend the lease for a further term. The Company is prohibited from selling or pledging the underlying leased assets as security. The Company must keep those properties in a good state of repair and return the properties in their original condition at the end of the lease. Further, the Company is required to pay maintenance fees in accordance with the lease contract.
40.2 Fair value hierarchy
The fair value measurement of the company's financial and non-financial assets and liabilities utilises market observable inputs and data as far as possible. Inputs used in determining fair value measurements are categorised into different levels based on how observable the inputs used in the valuation technique utilised are (the 'fair value hierarchy'):
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).
40.3 Methods and assumptions
(a) The Company's investment in equity shares of Bank of Maharashtra is measured at fair value through P&L, based on quoted market prices as on the reporting date. This investment is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
All other financial assets and liabilities, including trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, fixed deposits (including those with maturity over 12 months), security deposits with vendors, borrowings, lease liabilities, trade payables and other financial liabilities, are measured at amortised cost.
No transfers occurred between fair value hierarchy levels during the year.
Note No: 41 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company's activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. This note explains the source of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the related impact in the financial statements. The Board of Directors has overall oversight of the Company's financial risk management. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.
a) Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks, such as equity price risk and commodity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risks include investments, foreign currency receivables and payables and borrowings.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31st March, 2026 and 31st March, 2025.
The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on; the carrying values of gratuity and other post-retirement obligations; provisions; and the non-financial assets and liabilities.
The sensitivity of the relevant Profit and Loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in the respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held as of 31st March, 2026 and 31st March, 2025.
i) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. company's financial liabilities comprises mainly of interest-bearing deposits with dealers, however, these are not exposed to risk of fluctuation in market interest rate as the rates are fixed at the time of contract/agreement and do not change for any market fluctuation.
ii) Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the company's operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency).
(iii) Commodity price risk
The company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the ongoing manufacture of helmets, boxes, visors, spare and other accessories and therefore require a continuous supply of raw materials i.e. Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) & Polycarbonate (PC) being the major input used in the manufacturing. Due to the significantly increased volatility of the price of the ABS & PC, the company has entered into various purchase contracts for these material for which there is an active market. The company's management has developed and enacted a risk management strategy regarding commodity price risk and its mitigation. The company partly mitigated the risk of price volatility by entering into the contract for the purchase of these material and further the company increases prices of its products as and when appropriate to minimize the impact of increase in raw material prices.
b) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) including deposits with banks and financial institutions.
Customer credit risk is being driven by company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
Expected credit losses for financial assets other than trade receivables
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits with reputed banks. The credit risk on these instruments is limited because the counterparties are bank with high credit ratings assigned by domestic credit rating agencies. Hence, the credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalent and bank deposits is relatively low.
Other current financial assets include Export benefits receivable from the government. Hence, the credit risk associated with receivable from government on account of export benefits is relatively low.
Expected credit losses for trade receivables
a. Basis of Recognition
The Company applies the simplified approach under Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments to measure expected credit losses (ECL) on trade receivables. Under this approach, the Company recognizes lifetime ECL on all trade receivables, regardless of credit risk at the reporting date.
b. Methodology
The Company has adopted the flow rate (roll rate) method to estimate the probability of default (PD). This method tracks the historical transition of trade receivables through ageing buckets. Based on data from the past three financial years, the Company calculates the cumulative probability of default across these buckets. This approach reflects actual collection trends and default behaviour observed in the Company's receivables portfolio.
Key parameters used in the ECL model include:
i) Probability of Default (PD): Derived from historical flow rates between ageing buckets.
ii) Loss Given Default (LGD): Based on estimated recoverability of overdue balances.
iii) Exposure at Default (EAD): Gross carrying amount of the receivables.
c. Forward-looking Information
Forward-looking macroeconomic factors have been assessed and incorporated where deemed material. For the current period, forward-looking adjustments were evaluated and determined to have an immaterial impact on the ECL estimate. Accordingly, the base PD incorporates management's current view of expected credit risk.
d. Assumptions and Judgments
i) A three-year historical period is considered adequate to capture representative credit behaviour.
ii) The model assumes consistent collection and risk trends unless observed otherwise.
iii) The ECL provision is reviewed and updated regularly to reflect changes in credit risk and forward-looking information.
c) Liquidity Risk
The company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of long term bank loans and short term borrowings etc. The company has access to a sufficient variety of sources of funding and debt maturing within 12 months can be rolled over with existing lenders.
Note No: 42 Capital Management
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by
tntpl phi iit\/ Thp Cnmnpnw inrli iHpq within npt rlpht hnrrnwincrc: trprlp np\/phlpc Ipcc rpch pnrl rpch phi ii\/p|pntc
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company's capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing.

Note No: 54 Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's Standalone financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. These include recognition and measurement of financial instruments, estimates of useful lives and residual value of Property, Plant and Equipment and intangible assets, valuation of inventories, measurement of recoverable amounts of cash-generating units, measurement of employee benefits, actuarial assumptions, provisions etc.
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 Company continually evaluates these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized prospectively in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
A. Judgments
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements:
Lease
Ind AS 116 requires lessees to determine the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease adjusted with any option to extend or terminate the lease, if the use of such option is reasonably certain. The Company makes an assessment on the expected lease term on lease-by-lease basis. In evaluating the lease term, the Company considers factors such as any significant leasehold improvements undertaken over the lease term, costs relating to the termination of the lease and the importance of the underlying asset to the Company's operations taking into account the location of the underlying asset and the availability of suitable alternatives. The lease term in future periods reassessed to ensure that the lease term reflects the current economic circumstances.
B. Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the Standalone financial information were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
(i) Contingent liabilities
The contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company. The Company evaluates the obligation through Probable, Possible or Remote model ('PPR'). In making the evaluation for PPR, the Company take into consideration the Industry perspective, legal and technical view, availability of documentation/agreements, interpretation of the matter, independent opinion from professionals (specific matters) etc. which can vary based on subsequent events. The Company provides the liability in the books for probable cases, while possible cases are shown as contingent liability. The remote cases are disclosed in the Standalone financial information.
(ii) Impairment of financial assets
The impairment provisions for trade receivables are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The company uses judgment in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation based on the company's past history and other factors at the end of each reporting period.
(iii) Impairment of Assets
An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model. In calculating the value in use, certain assumptions are required to be made in respect of highly uncertain matters, including management's expectations of growth in EBITDA, long term growth rates; and the selection of discount rates to reflect the risks involved.
(iv) Gratuity benefits
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexity of 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.
In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the interest rates of government bonds, and extrapolated maturity corresponding to the expected duration of the defined benefit obligation. The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for the specific countries. Future salary increases and pension increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the respective countries.
(v) Taxes
Provision for tax liabilities require judgments on the interpretation of tax legislation, developments in case law and the potential outcomes of tax audits and appeals which may be subject to significant uncertainty. Therefore the actual results may vary from expectations resulting in adjustments to provisions, the valuation of deferred tax liabilities, cash tax settlements and therefore the tax charge in the statement of profit or loss.
