Disclosures on financial instruments

This section gives an overview of the significance of financial instruments for the Company and provides additional information on balance sheet items that contain financial instruments.

The details of significant accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognized, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements.

Financial assets and liabilities

The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities as at March 31,2024 and March 31,2023:

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below:

Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of quoted equity shares, quoted corporate debt instruments and mutual fund investments.

Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using 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).

Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.

There has been no transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3 for the years ended March 31,2024 and March 31, 2023.

The following table provides an analysis of fair value of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on recurring basis, grouped into Level 1 to Level 3 categories:

The short-term financial assets and liabilities are stated at amortized cost which is approximately equal to their fair value.

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented above are not necessarily indicative of all the amounts that the Company could have realized or paid in sale transactions as of respective dates. As such, the fair value of the financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different from the amounts reported at each year end.

b) Financial risk management

In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to liquidity and credit risk, which may impact the fair value of its financial instruments.

The Company has a risk management policy which covers the risks associated with the financial assets and liabilities such as credit risks. The risk management policy is approved by the board of directors.

i) Market risk (equity price risk)

Equity price risk is related to the change in market reference price of the investments in equity securities.

The fair value of some of the Company's investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income exposes the Company to equity price risks. These investments are subject to changes in the market price of securities. The fair value of Company's investment in quoted equity securities as at March 31,2024 and March 31,

2023 was ' 50,121.13 Lakhs and ' 34,374.00 Lakhs respectively. A 10% change in equity price as at March 31,

2024 and March 31,2023 would result in an impact of ' 5,012.11 Lakhs and ' 3,437.40 Lakhs respectively.

(Note: The impact is indicated on equity before consequential tax impact, if any).

ii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counterparty failure to repay or service debt according to the contractual terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses both the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration risks.

Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk, principally consist of investments classified as fair value through profit or loss, trade receivables, loans and advances and derivative financial instruments. None of the financial instruments of the Company result in material concentrations of exposure to credit risks.

Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk as at March 31,2024 was ' 820.90 Lakhs (' 1,005.32 Lakhs as at March 31,2023) being the total of the carrying amount of balances with banks, short term deposits with banks and other financial assets excluding equity investments.

None of the Company's cash equivalents, including time deposits with banks, are past due or impaired. Regarding trade receivables and other receivables, and other loans or receivables that are neither impaired nor past due, there were no indications as at March 31,2024, that defaults in payment obligations will occur.

iii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. The Company invests its surplus funds in bank fixed deposit and liquid and liquid plus schemes of mutual funds, which carry no/low mark to market risks.

C6 For the FY 2003-04 to 2008-09, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that lease income received by the Company from Apollo Tyres Ltd. Is liable to be taxed under the head ‘Income from Other Sources' and not under the head ‘Business Income' and consequently, disallowed deduction of business expenses. The consequential impact on Company's tax liability has already been accounted for in preceding year(s).

Further, for FY 2009-10 to 2013-14, Income-tax Department has followed similar stand, by not allowing claim of business expenses, and thereby raised a demand.

Based upon the discussion with the Company's tax advisors, the Company is confident of favourable decision from higher appellate/Judicial authorities. However, on prudent basis, the requisite provision for differential tax liability has substantially been accounted for in preceding year(s)/current year.

For the subsequent years i.e., from FY 2014-15 & onwards, the matter is pending before Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) for verification of facts and is yet to be assessed .
