3. Property, Plant and Equipment :
Notes :
1. The company has reviewed carrying cost of its Property, Plants & Equipments and the management is of the view that in the current financial year, Impairment of its Property, Plants & Equipments is not considered necessary as all the assets are in good condition and realisable value is more than carrying cost.
2. During the year under consideration, the company has installed a new plant for modernization of existing production facilities. The total cost incurred for such modernisation has been computed to be Rs. 452.36 lakhs as per the priniciples laid down in IND AS 10 "Property, Plant and Equipment". However, some of the machinery parts purchased for such modernasition, were returned to the vendor without even using the same as they were not in a usbale condition. Cost of such unusable machinery parts amounting to Rs. 2.44 lakhs has been deducted from the cost of installation of machinery as per IND AS 10. Moreover the differential import duty amounting to Rs. 25.68 lakhs has also been capitalized to the cost of the asset as per principles of IND AS 10
SIGNIFICANT CASH GENERATING UNITS
The Company has identified its entire business operations as one CGU.
Following key assumptions were considered while performing Impairment testing:_
Long term sustainable growth rates in cash flows 5%
Weighted Average Cost of Capital % (WACC) before tax (Discount rate)_15%_
The projections cover a period of five years, as the Company believes this to be the most appropriate timescale over which to review and consider annual performances before applying a fixed terminal value multiple to the final year cash flows. The growth rates used to estimate future performance are based on the conservative estimates from past performance. Margins are based on FY 2023-24 performance.
The Company has performed sensitivity analysis around the base assumptions and have concluded that no reasonable changes in key assumptions would cause the recoverable amount of the CGU to be less than the carrying value.
2. On transition to Ind AS, the carrying values of all the property, plant and equipment under the previous GAAP have been considered to be the deemed cost under Ind AS.
3. Details of title deeds of Immovable Property not held in name of the Company : Nil
4. Capital-work-in progress / Intangible assets under development (ITAUD), whose completion is overdue or has exceeded its cost compared to its original plan : Nil

42 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company's activities expose it to the following risks:
^ Credit risk ^ Interest risk ^ Liquidity risk ^ Market risk
CREDIT RISK
Credit Risk is the risk that a counter party 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) and from its financing activities including deposits with banks and financial institutions, investments and other financial instruments.
Trade receivables
Credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
The impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogeneous groups and assessed for impairment collectively. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. The Company does not hold collateral as security.
Impact of Covid 19 pandemic - Based on recent trends observed and collection patterns, the Group does not envisage any material risks. Future outlook will depend on how the pandemic develops and the resultant impact on businesses.
Credit risk exposure :
The Company's credit period generally ranges from 30 - 60 days. 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.
Top Customer means customer with whom the company has done a business of more than Rs. 1,00,00,000 during the year. None of the customers accounted for a major portion of the receivables as at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. The highest contribution to the total revenue by a customer for FY 23-24 was 13.76% & for FY 22-23 was 8.30% only.
Investments
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. Counterparty credit ratings are reviewed by the Company periodically and the investments are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty's potential failures. The Company does not expect any losses from non- performance by these counterparties.
Impact of Covid 19 pandemic- Based on the recent trends observed, type of instruments and strength of the counterparties, the Group does not envisage any material risks.
INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company's borrowings are short term / working capital in nature and hence is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
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 reasonable price. The Company's objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and liquidity requirements. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and deploys a robust cash management system. It maintains adequate source of financing through the use of short term bank deposits and cash credit facility. Processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management. Management monitors the Company's liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that the cash and cash equivalents is sufficient to meet its current requirements. Accordingly no liquidity risk is perceived.
Impact of Covid 19 pandemic- Based on recent trends observed, profitability, cash generation, cash surpluses held by the Group and borrowing lines available, the Group does not envisage any material liquidity risks. Future outlook will depend on how the pandemic develops and the resultant impact on businesses.
MARKET 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 does not face exchange risk as it is not engaged in foreign operations. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates could relate only to the Company's operating activities (when revenue or expense would be denominated in a foreign currency).
Impact of Covid 19 pandemic - The Company basis their assessment believes that the probability of the occurrence of their forecasted transactions is not impacted by COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also does not expect any material deterioration in both counterparty credit risk and own credit risk. Future outlook will depend on how the pandemic develops and the resultant impact on the businesses.
43 Capital Management
For the purposes of Company capital management, Capital includes equity attributable to the equity holders of the Company and all other equity reserves. The primary objective of the Company capital management is to ensure that it maintains an efficient capital structure and maximize 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.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the year ended March 31,2024 and March 31,2023
45 The managment was unable to identify and depreciate significant components with different useful lives separately from the principal asset as required by Note 4 of Schedule II of Companies Act 2013 due to lack of technical expertise on the said matter. However, having a resaonable approach, the company assumes that none of the parts of an item of tangible fixed assets have different useful lives from the remaining parts of the asset or the principal asset and as per the past experience of the company, there are no significant components of existing tangible assets that are used/ can be used for a lifespan shorter/longer than life of the principal asset.
