3.11 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets

Provisions are recognised 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 amount recognised
as a provision is the best estimate of consideration
required to settle the present obligation at the end
of the reporting period taking into account risk/
uncertainty surrounding the obligation. The expense
relating to a provision is presented in the standalone
statement of profit and loss.

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 the
obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot
be made.

Contingent assets are disclosed where inflow of
economic benefits is probable. 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 recognised as a finance cost.

3.12 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet
comprise cash at banks and on hand, balances with
payment gateways and short-term deposits with an
original maturity of three months or less, which are
subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

For the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash
and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term
deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank
overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of
the Company’s cash management.

3.13 Earnings per share

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

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing
the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity

shareholders by the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the year adjusted for the
effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

3.14 Inventories

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net
realisable value. Cost is determined as follows:

i) In case of cars, at specific cost on identification
basis of their individual costs.

ii) I n case of spares and others, the same are
valued at weighted average basis.

Costs includes all non refundable duties and taxes
and all other charges incurred in bringing the inventory
to their present location and condition. Net realisable
value is the estimated selling price less estimated cost
necessary to make the sale.

3.15 Segment Reporting

An operating segment is component of the Company
that engages in the business activity from which the
Company earns revenues and incurs expenses, for
which discrete financial information is available and
whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the
chief operating decision maker (CODM), in deciding
about resources to be allocated to the segment
and assess its performance. The Company’s chief
operating decision maker is the chairman of the
Company.

Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment
assets and segment liabilities have been identified
to segments on the basis of their relationship to the
operating activities of the segment. Inter segment
revenue is accounted on the basis of transactions
which are primarily determined based on market /
fair value factors. Revenue, expenses, assets and
liabilities which relate to the Company as a whole
and are not allocable to segments on a reasonable
basis have been included under “unallocated revenue
/ expenses / assets / liabilities”.

3.16 Statement of Cash Flows

Cash flows are reported using indirect method
whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects
of the transactions of non-cash nature, any deferrals
or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts
and payments and items of income or expenses
associated with investing and financing cash flows.
The cash flows from operating, investing and financing
activities of the Company are segregated based on
the available information.

3.17 Events after reporting date

Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date
provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end
of the reporting period, the impact of such events is
adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise,
events after the Balance Sheet date of material size
or nature are only disclosed.

3.18 Share-based payment

Employees (including senior executives) of the
Company receive remuneration in the form of share-
based payments, whereby employees render services
as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled
transactions).

Equity-settled transactions: The cost of equity-settled
transactions is determined by the fair value at the date
when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation
model.

That cost is recognised, together with a corresponding
increase in share-based payment reserves in equity,
over the period in which the service conditions are
fulfilled in employee benefits expense. The cumulative
expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at
each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the
extent to which the vesting period has expired and
Company’s best estimate of the number of equity
instruments that will ultimately vest. The expense or
credit in the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss
for a period represents the movement in cumulative
expense recognised as at the beginning and end of
that period and is recognised in employee benefits
expense.

No expense is recognised for awards that do not
ultimately vest because service conditions have not
been met. When the terms of an equity-settled award
are modified, the minimum expense recognised is
the grant date fair value of the unmodified award,
provided the original vesting terms of the award are
met. An additional expense, measured as at the date
of modification, is recognised for any modification
that increases the total fair value of the share-based
payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to
the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the
entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element
of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately
through profit or loss.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected
as additional share dilution in the computation of
diluted earnings per share.

3.19 Business Combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the
acquisition method. At the acquisition date, identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured
at fair value. The consideration transferred is
measured at fair value at acquisition date and includes
the fair value of any contingent consideration.

Where the consideration transferred exceeds the
fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired
and liabilities assumed, the excess is recorded
as goodwill. In case of business combinations
involving entities under common control, the same is
accounted for using the pooling of interests method.
The net assets of the transferor entity or business are
accounted at their carrying amounts on the date of the
acquisition subject to necessary adjustments required
to harmonise accounting policies.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess
of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and
the amount recognised for non-controlling interests,
and any previous interest held, over the net identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost
less any accumulated impairment losses. For the
purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in
a business combination is, from the acquisition date,
allocated to each of the Company’s cash-generating
units that are expected to benefit from the combination,
irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the
acquiree are assigned to those units.

A cash generating unit to which goodwill has been
allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more
frequently when there is an indication that the unit
may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the
cash generating unit is less than its carrying amount,
the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the
carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit
and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based
on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any
impairment loss for goodwill is recognised in profit
or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill
is not reversed in subsequent periods unless (a) the
impairment loss was caused by a specific external
event of an exceptional nature that is not expected
to recur; and (b) subsequent external events have
occurred that reverse the effect of that event.

I f the initial accounting for a business combination
is incomplete by the end of the reporting period
in which the combination occurs, the Company
reports provisional amounts for the items for which
the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional
amounts are adjusted through goodwill during the
measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities
are recognised, to reflect new information obtained
about facts and circumstances that existed at the
acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the
amounts recognised at that date. These adjustments
are called as measurement period adjustments. The
measurement period does not exceed one year from
the acquisition date.

3.20 Current versus non-current classification

The Company presents assets and liabilities in
the balance sheet based on current / non-current
classification.

An asset is treated as current when it is:

- Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or
consumed in normal operating cycle;

- Held primarily for the purpose of trading;

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

- Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from
being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at
least twelve months after the reporting period.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is current when:

- It is expected to be settled in normal operating
cycle; or

- It is held primarily for the purpose of trading; or

- It is due to be settled within twelve months after
the reporting period;, or

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

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as
non-current assets and liabilities respectively.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition
of assets for processing and their realisation in cash
or cash equivalents. The Company has identified
twelve months as its operating cycle.

NEW/AMENDED STANDARDS ADOPTED BY THE
COMPANY

Recent 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. During the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA
has notified Ind AS - 117 Insurance Contracts and
amendments to Ind AS 116 - Leases, relating to
sale and leaseback transactions, applicable to the
Company w.e.f. April 01, 2024. The Company has
reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its
evaluation has determined that it does not have any
impact in its financial statements.

Note:

The goodwill is tested for impairment annually and as at March 31,2025, the goodwill is not impaired.

The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are determined from value-in-use calculations. The key assumptions for the value-in¬
use calculations are those regarding the discount rates, growth rates and expected changes to direct costs during the year.
Management estimates discount rates using pre-tax rates that reflect current market assessments of the time value of money.

The growth rates are based on management’s forecasts. Changes in selling prices and direct costs are based on past
practices and expectations of future changes in the market. The Company prepares its forecasts based on the most recent
financial budgets approved by management with projected revenue growth rates at 6.00 % p.a. The rates used to discount
the forecasts is 14.76% p.a.

Management believes that any reasonable possible change in any of these assumptions would not cause the carrying amount
to exceed its recoverable amount.

* During the year ended March 31,2025, the Company paid final dividend of ' 1.50 per equity share aggregating to ' 62.00
Million for the year ended March 31,2024 which was approved in the annual general meeting held on September 20, 2024.

' 0.50 per equity share of face value of ' 5 each for the financial year ended March 31,2025 amounting to ' 20.69 Million. The
above is subject to approval at the ensuing Annual General Meeting of the Company and hence is not recognised as a liability.

Nature and purpose of reserves
Capital reserve on business combination

There are no transfers between level 1 and level 2 during the current year.

During the previous year ended March 31,2024, there was a transfer from level 2 to level 3 due to change in categorisation
from using third party pricing information without adjustments to lowest level input, to the fair value measurement as a whole.
The financial instruments were categorised as level 2 based on the third party pricing information available and as level 3 in
case the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement was unobservable. The Company’s policy is to
recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the financial year.

Valuation Methodology

As at March 31,2025 and March 31,2024, the Company has measured fair value for Level 3 investment based on valuation
carried out by the Management using discounted cashflow method applying discount rate of 38.24% (2023-24 - 20.36%).

E3 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s financial liabilities comprise mainly of borrowings, lease liabilities, vehicle floor plan, trade payables and
other financial liabilities. The Company’s financial assets comprise mainly of cash and cash equivalents, investments, bank
balances other than cash and cash equivalents, loans given to related parties, trade receivables and other financial assets.

The Company’s business activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks, namely market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company’s senior management has the overall responsibility for establishing and governing the Company’s risk
management framework who are responsible for developing and monitoring the Company’s risk management policies. The
Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set and
monitor appropriate risk limits and controls, periodically review the changes in market conditions and reflect the changes in
the policy accordingly. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Board of directors of the Company.
Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which
are reported to the Board of directors.

8 Market risk

The market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes
in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk. The Company
does not have any outstanding balance in foreign currencies and hence it is not exposed to foreign currency risk. Financial
instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits and investments.

The Company manages market risk through a treasury department, which evaluate and exercises control over the entire
process of market risk management.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flow with respect to interest payments on borrowing will fluctuate because
of change in market interest rates. Interest rate change does not affects significantly short term borrowings therefore the
Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt
obligation with floating interest rates.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time, or at a reasonable
price. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as
per requirements. The Company generates cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations, maintains adequate
liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and has undrawn short term line of credits from banks to ensure
necessary liquidity. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and deploys a robust cash management system.

Credit risk 2

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 credit risk for the Company primarily arises from credit exposures to trade receivables, loans given,
deposits with landlords for properties taken on leases and other receivables including balances with banks.

Trade and other receivables: The Company’s business is predominantly through credit card, cash collections, insurance
companies and receivable from Mercedes-Benz (OEM), hence the credit risk on such transactions are minimal. The Company
has adopted a policy of dealing with only credit worthy counterparties in case of institutional customers and the credit risk
exposure for institutional customers is managed by the Company by credit worthiness checks. All trade receivables are also
reviewed and assessed for default on a regular basis. Further, Trade and other receivables consist of a large number of
end customers hence, the Company is not exposed to concentration risks. In relation to credit risk arising from commercial
transactions, necessary provisions are recognised for trade receivables when objective evidence exists that the Company will
be unable to recover all the outstanding amounts in accordance with the original contractual conditions of the receivables.

The Company considers the solvency, liquidity, asset quality and management prudence of the counter parties, as well as the
performance potential of the counter parties. Refer note 14 for the disclosures for trade receivables.

The Company also carries credit risk on lease deposits with landlords for properties taken on leases, for which agreements
are signed and property possessions timely taken for its operations.

The risk relating to refunds after shut down of leased premises is managed through successful negotiations or appropriate
legal actions, where necessary.

Credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalent and other balances with bank is limited as the counterparties are recognised
banks.

During the year ended March 31, 2025, out of the total revenue of ' 6,656.45 Million (March 31, 2024 : ' 5,989.89 Million),

' 966.10 Million (March 31, 2024 : ' 904.58 Million) is earned from Mercedes-Benz which comprise of 14.51% (March 31,
2024: 15.10%) of the total revenue earned. Out of the total receivable, the outstanding from Mercedes-Benz is
' 188.10
Million (March 31,2024 :
' 174.66 Million), which is 43.02% (March 31,2024 : 37.20%) of the total trade receivable balances.

*Subsequent to the year end, the Company has received favourable assessment order setting aside demand of ' 2.44 Million
from VAT department and the liability has been determined at
' Nil.

Contingent liabilities includes demand notices received from tax authorities for various matters including mismatch in input
credit. The Company has filed appeals on the above matters and the same are pending with various appellate authorities.

Future cash outflows in respect of the above matters are determinable only on receipt of judgements / decisions pending at
various forums / authorities. The amount assessed as contingent liabilities do not include interest and penalties.

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings including product liability and other regulatory matter relating to conduct
of its business. Based on the internal evaluation of the management the possible unfavourable outcome of such litigations to
be remote and accordingly the same has not been considered as contingent liability.

The Company and one of its subsidiary Company has jointly given the Corporate Guarantee of ' 955.00 Million against the
borrowing obtained by the subsidiary companies, having outstanding balance as at March 31,2025 of
' 704.84 Million (March
31,2024 -
' 457.57 Million).

SEGMENT REPORTING

The primary reporting of the Company has been made on the basis of Business Segments. The Company has a single
business segment as defined in Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 108 on Segment Reporting, namely dealership of cars
in India. The Chairman and the Executive Director of the Company allocates resources and assess the performance of the
Company, thus are the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The CODM monitors the operating results of the business as
a single segment, hence no separate segment needs to be disclosed.

E3 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The Company makes Provident Fund, Employee State Insurance Scheme and Labour Welfare Fund contributions which are
defined contribution plans, for qualifying employees. Under the Schemes, the Company is required to contribute a specified
percentage of the payroll costs to fund the benefits. The Company recognised
' 3.64 Million (March 31,2024: ' 3.56 Million)
for Provident Fund contributions,
' 0.88 Million (March 31,2024: ' 1.33 Million) for Employee State Insurance Scheme and
' 0.06 Million (March 31,2024: ' 0.04 Million) for Labour Welfare Fund contributions in the Standalone Statement of Profit and
Loss in Note 29. The contributions payable to these plans by the Company are at rates specified in the rules of the schemes.

Defined Benefit Plan:

The Company has an obligation towards gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. Till March
31,2024, the Company made monthly payments to employees along with other salary payments which had been expensed
out on monthly basis. W.e.f. April 01, 2024, the benefit payable is the differential amount calculated as per the Payment of
Gratuity Act, 1972 and the amount paid to employees on a monthly basis along with salary payments till March 31,2024. The
benefit vests upon completion of five years of continuous service and once vested it is payable to employees on retirement
or on termination of employment. In case of death while in service, the gratuity is payable irrespective of vesting. Each year,

the management reviews the balance of payments actually made to the employees while monthly processing, which can be
offsetted against the liabilities determined at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, based on the
independent legal opinion obtained by the Company. Such review includes the actual payment - liability matching strategy.
The management recognise additional expense to the extent of deficit of actual payment over defined benefit obligations
actuarially determined using the Projected Unit Credit method at the end of the year. Actuarial gains and losses in respect of
defined benefit plans are recognised through other comprehensive income.

Through its defined benefit plans the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed
below:

Interest risk

A decrease in government bond yields will increase plan liabilities.

Salary risk

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

Life expectancy

The present value of defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan
participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase
the plan’s liability.

In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the above
sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit
method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the defined benefit liability as
recognised in the Balance Sheet. The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not
change as compared to the prior year.

Notes : The transactions with related parties are made in the normal course of business on terms equivalent to those that
prevail in arm’s length transactions. The amount outstanding are unsecured and will be settled in cash. No expense has been
recognised in the current or prior years for bad or doubtful debts in respect of amounts owed by related parties except for the
loan amount of
' 384.45 Million given to a wholly owned subsidiary company had been written off in the previous year. For
guarantees given, refer note 19 and 22.

0.00 denotes amount less than ' 1,000

W5 EVENTS OCCURRED AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

The Company evaluates events and transactions that occur subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the approval
of financial statements to determine the necessity for recognition and/or reporting of subsequent events and transactions in
