(a) In respect of the projects undertaken by the Company:
(i) In furtherance to the recommendation of the Dispute Resolution Board (DRB) and Arbitration Awards in the Company's favour, the Company had recognized income in the current and previous years the carrying value of which as at the March 31, 2026 is Rs. 324.91 Crores (excluding CMRL award of Rs. 208.00 Crores refer note 4(a)
(ii) below), which is part of Non Current Trade Receivable. The Company contends that such awards have reached finality for the determination of the amounts of such claims and are reasonably confident of recovery of such claims although the client has moved the court to set aside the awards. Considering the fact that the Company has received favourable awards from the DRB and the Arbitration Tribunal, the management is reasonably certain that the awards will get favourable verdict from the courts
(ii) The Company had accounted the CMRL award at an amount of Rs 532.00 Crores which included an amount of Rs 124.00 Crores which was subject matter of appeal. This was shown under contract assets in the previous year. The Company based on its internal assessment along with the opinion of the techno legal expert has concluded that the claim is not expected to realize hence this amount is reversed / written off provided in the previous year resulting in the net carrying amount against CMRL award at Rs. 408.00 crores. Further, on a prudent basis the company has retained its share of 51% since its a Joint Venture award and has provided for the JV partner's share as expected credit loss while retaining its right to litigate for the entire award amount. The Company contends that its tenable counter claim on the JV partner arising from their abandoning the project is far in excess of their share of claim awarded.
The company has given an unfunded exposure of Rs. 51.25 Crores in form of Bank Guarantee ( excluding performance guarantee).
(iii) Therefore, the trade receivable substantially represents the Arbitration Awards decided in favour of the Company which are challenged in various juridical forums by the counter party. Therefore these are considered disputed but are considered good as the awards are in favour of the Company. On the principle of prudence the Company does not account for the inherent interest in the awards.
(b) Expected Credit Loss
Since the Company Calculates impairment under the simplified approach the Company does not track the changes in credit risk of trade receivables the impairment amount represents lifetime expected credit loss. Hence the additional disclosures in trade receivables for changes in credit risk and credit impaired trade receivable are not disclosed.
a) Excess Managerial Remuneration Receivable :
Pursuant to the rejection of the waiver of recovery of managerial remuneration by the Members in General Meeting, During Previous year the Company has reversed the managerial remuneration of the erstwhile Chairman and Managing Director and another erstwhile Executive Director aggregating to ' 31.13 crore and has shown the net recoverable amount (after reversal of unpaid salary) of ' 24.53 crores as excess managerial remuneration receivable . Due to elapse of long period of time company has provided Rs 24.53 Crore in the earlier years.
a) Unbilled Revenue
The Company had evaluated its claims in respect of on-going, completed and/or terminated contracts in the earlier periods which amounts to Rs. 10.00 crore as at March 31, 2026 with the help of an independent expert in the field of claims and arbitration who had assessed the likely amount of claims being settled in favour of the Company. The management contends that there is no change in position during the year and the same are due to them and they have a very good chance of realisation.
(d) Terms / rights attached to equity shares
The Company has only one class of Equity Shares having a par value of ' 2/- each. Each holder of Equity Share is entitled to one vote per share. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of Equity Shares held by the shareholder.
In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of Equity Shares will be entitled to receive any of the remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. However, no such preferential amounts exist currently. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of Equity Shares held by the shareholders.
12 Non Current Financial Liabilities - Borrowings Note:
Classification of all credit facilities under Current Financial Liabilities - Refer note no. 20
The facilities from the lenders have become Non Performing Assets in the month June'17. The Lenders have recalled all the loans and therefore all the long term loan facilities of ' 2,636.59 crores ( P.Y ' 2,636.59 crores ) are classified as current and disclosed under Current Liabilities together with the disclosure.
On account of the above, a number of lenders have not shared their confirmations as at the year ended March 31, 2026 and to that extent the balances are unconfirmed.
1 On November 21, 2025, the Government of India notified the four Labour Codes, namely the Code on Wages, 2019, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the Code on Social Security, 2020, and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, thereby consolidating 29 existing labour laws. The Ministry of Labour and Employment has published draft Central Rules and FAQs to enable assessment of the financial impact arising from changes in regulations.
The Company has assessed the financial implications of the changes arising from the implementation of the Labour Codes which has resulted in increase in gratuity liability arising out of past service cost by Rs. 0.19 Crore, which has been debited to employees benefits expenses in profit & loss.
2 Actuarial gains/losses are recognized in the period of occurrence under Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).
3 The Company's Gratuity Fund is managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India. The plan assets under the fund are deposited under approved securities. The Company's Gratuity Liability is entirely funded except LMR employees.
4 Salary escalation & attrition rate are considered as advised by the company; they appear to be in line with the industry practice considering promotion and demand & supply of the employees.
5 Maturity Analysis of Projected Benefit Obligation is done considering future salary, attrition & death in respective year for members
6 In the absence of data of experience adjustments, the same is not disclosed.
7 The Company's Leave Encashment Liability is entirely unfunded.
8 Provision as at March 31 is bifurcated into current and non current based on estimated recoupment of fund balances by the company in the near future
9 Risk Factors / Assumptions
a) Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of asset.
b) Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan's liability.
c) Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and other debt instruments.
d) Asset Liability Matching Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.
e) Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have any longevity risk.
f) Concentration Risk: Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.
* The facilities from the lenders to SPV Companies were backed by the Company's Corporate Guarantees. Since the SPV companies could not make payment of the overdue amounts, the lenders have demanded the immediate payment of all overdue amount of loan and interest from the Company in the earlier years. The same is classified as current and disclosed as Current Liabilities and correspondingly recoverable from the SPV companies.
a) On account of the above, a number of lenders have not shared their confirmations as at the year ended March 31, 2026 (also in the previous years) and to that extent the balances are unconfirmed.
b) Loan Assigned to Asset Reconstruction Companies
1. During the Year ended March 2024 , Union Bank of India had entered into assignment deed with Omkara Assets Reconstruction Company Private Limited (OARPL) and assigned its outstanding loan facilities to OARPL.
2. During the year IDBI Bank , Canara Bank and Punjab National Bank have entered into assignment deed with CFM Asset Reconstruction Private Limited (CFM) and assigned its outstanding loan facilities to CFM.
The outstanding of all the above bank loan amount is part of credit facilities recalled by the lenders in current financial liabilities.

The equity shares held by the Company and / or GIL in a Subsidiary and /or Joint Venture Company of the Group are pledged with respective lenders or consortium of lenders for the individual secured loan availed by the said Subsidiary and / or Joint Venture Company from their respective lenders or consortium of lenders.
(L) During the year ended March 31, 2026 some of the lenders have continued levying penal interest and charges amounting to Rs. 107.90 Crores (based on availability of Loan statements). Cumulative amount of such penal interest and charges amounts to Rs. 391.76 Crores (based on availability of Loan statements) up to March 31,2026. The management is disputing the same and has not accepted the debit of penal interest and charges in its books. They have also requested the lenders to reverse the same.
In addition to above, an amount of Rs. 519.78 Crores towards penal interest and charges is levied by Asset Reconstruction company namely CFM Assets Reconstruction Company Private Limited (ARC). The said ARC has purchased the aforesaid debt from the company's lenders.
On the request of the Company for settlement of debt, ARC has considered the request of settling the debt on the basis of outstanding principal amount and waiving off interest and penal charges which is in the process of approval senior management of ARC. The management of the Company believes that this is a high possibility and is actively working for settling the same.
Further the Company believes that the other lenders will accept similar settlement terms in the overall resolution plan. The resolution plan was approved by some of the lenders in 2021, which resolution is still under discussion, in which the penal interest and charges are likely to be reversed, and the resolution plan does not consider the Company liability to pay this. The aggregate amount of such penal interest considered contingent and not accounted by the Company including the amount of possible settlement as detailed above works out to Rs. 911.54 Crores
(b) Contract balances
The contract assets primarily relate to the Company's rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. This usually occurs when the Company issues an invoice to the customer. The contract liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers for construction for which revenue is recognised over time.
Amounts due from contract customers represents the gross unbilled amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work performed till date. It is measured at cost plus profit recognised till date less progress billings and recognised losses when incurred.
Amounts due to contract customers represents the excess of progress billings over the revenue recognised (cost plus attributable profits) for the contract work performed till date.
Cost includes all expenditure related directly to specific projects and an allocation of fixed and variable overheads incurred in the Company's contract activity based on normal operating capacity.
(c) Performance obligation
The Company undertakes Engineering, Procurement and Construction business. The ongoing contracts with customers are for construction of highways, water pipeline projects, construction of residential & commercial buildings, and others. The type of work in these contracts involve construction, engineering, designing, supply of materials, development of system, installation, project management, operations & maintenance etc.
The Company evaluates whether each contract consists of a single performance obligation or multiple performance obligations. Contracts where the Company provides a significant integration service to the customer by combining all the goods and services are concluded to have a single performance obligations. Contracts with no significant integration service, and where the customer can benefit from each unit on its own, are concluded to have multiple performance obligations. In such cases consideration is allocated to each performance obligation, based on standalone selling prices. Where the Company enters into multiple contracts with the same customer, the Company evaluates whether the contract is to be combined or not by evaluating factors such as commercial objective of the contract, consideration negotiated with the customer and whether the individual contracts have single performance obligations or not.
The Company recognises contract revenue over time as the performance creates or enhances an asset controlled by the customer. For such arrangements revenue is recognised using cost based input methods. Revenue is recognised with respect to the stage of completion, which is assessed with reference to the proportion of contract costs incurred for the work performed at the balance sheet date relative to the estimatedTotal contract costs.
Any costs incurred that do not contribute to satisfying performance obligations are excluded from the Company's input methods of revenue recognition as the amounts are not reflective of our transferring control of the system to the customer. Significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the amount of net contract revenues, including the impact of any performance incentives, liquidated damages, and other forms of variable consideration.
If estimated incremental costs on any contract, are greater than the net contract revenues, the Company recognises the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known. Variations in contract work, claims, incentive payments are included in contract revenue to the extent that may have been agreed with the customer and are capable of being reliably measured.
The aggregate value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) Performance obligations to be performed in next year is amounting to Rs. 9.49 crores (PY amounting to Rs. 9.54 Crores )
Notes related to Exceptional Items:
i) During the previous year the Company has provided for one of its subsidiary namely Ansaldocaldaie Boilers India Private Limited receivables on account of loan of Rs. 17.57 Crores and Interest of Rs. 5.54 Crores and for investment Rs. 5.85 Crores

xv The Company is in the process of regularising various non- compliances under FEMA by compounding and other process. The liability on account of the said non -compliance is presently not ascertainable.
*Note: out of Above Bank Guarantee figure of Rs. 166.97 (PY Rs. 165.52) Crores are unconfirmed
33 Segment Reporting as per IND AS108 “ Operating Segments”
The Company is engaged mainly in “Construction and Engineering” segment. The disclosure of operating segments at group level is given in consolidated financial statements as required in terms of Indian Accounting Standard INDAS -108.
Revenue of ' 80.90 Crore (PY: ' 19.15 Crore) arising from one (PY two) major customer each contributing more than 10% of theTotal revenue of the Company.
(b) During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Group has entered into Shareholders Agreement (SHA) between subsidiaries of the Company i.e., Gammon International BV (GIBV), Gammon Holdings (Mauritius) Ltd (GHML) and the new investor, where the investor has committed to subscribe and pay the share capital of Sofinter for aTotal amount of Euro 12 Million.
With the proposed infusion, the new investor will acquire 90% stake in Sofinter at an aggregate value of Euro 12 million. Post infusion of money, the subsidiary companies, GIBV and GHML will hold a balance 10% stake in Sofinter. Gammon India Ltd (GIL) is the corporate guarantor for due performance of the subsidiaries i.e., of Gammon Holdings (Mauritius) Limited and Gammon International BV. The execution of the SHA is underway along with fulfilment of Condition Precedent. The SHA also provides for a waterfall mechanism agreed between the Parties, with a maximum exit for the Gammon Group equal to Euro 34 million at an exit at Euro 135 million
Thus, the stake of Gammon Group in Investment in Sofinter will reduce to 10% as againstTotal 67.5% through Gammon International BV @ 32.5% and Gammon Holdings (Mauritius) Limited@ 35%.
Considering the value at which the new investor proposes to acquire the 90% stake in Sofinter, the carrying value of the stake of Gammon group which is carried at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI), has been fair valued at the proportionate fair value for their 10% stake in Sofinter.
The company has on a prudence basis provided entire exposure in the carrying value of Sofinter. In the current year the balance exposure of Rs 12.78 Crore is provided as Provision for Doubtful Debts and Advances.
(c) The accounts of a subsidiary M/s Campo Puma Oriente S.A. have not been audited since December 2012, due to certain disputes with the partner in the project. Furthermore, IDBI Bank Dubai, invoked the Stand by letter of credit provided by IDBI Mumbai in the month of October 2016. The exposure of the Company in the said subsidiary is ' 430.19 crores. The company had received a valuation report for $ 60 Million approximately from an independent merchant banker for its share more than 3 years ago, which the management believes is still valid. Considering the elapse of time and the resolution with partner not concluding and the increasing losses being incurred in the oil field, the company has made the entire provision against its exposure.
(d) The Company through its step down subsidiary P. Van Eerd Beheersmaatschappij B.V., Netherlands (PVAN) held a 50% shareholding in Sadelmi S.p.A for Euro 7.50 Million, Italy (Sadelmi) with the remaining 50% held by Busi Impianti S.p.A, Italy since April 2008. Due to the economic conditions prevailing in different parts of the world where Sadelmi was present some of the projects under execution encountered serious contractual problems. Sadelmi therefore sought creditors' protection through a Court in Italy and simultaneously, as part of scheme, applied for transferring the remaining projects and leased all references standing in its name since inception to a new Company Busi Power S.r.l wholly held by Busi Group. The above procedure however has not yet been completed as the decision in the Court is still awaited. The delay is on account of objections raised by some creditors among other reasons. In view of the uncertainties prevailing in Europe and the delay in the outcome of the Court process in respect of the creditors' protection sought by M/s Sadelmi in its application in connection therewith, the Company has, on prudent basis, made full provision towards its funded exposures in connection with the Investment in Sadelmi of Rs.25.72 Crore.

36 Material Uncertainty Relating to Going Concern
The Company's operations have been affected in the last few years by various factors including liquidity crunch, unavailability of resources on timely basis, delays in execution of projects, delays in land acquisition, operational issues etc. The Company's overseas operations are characterized due to weak order booking, paucity of working capital and uncertain business environment. Also the Company's current liabilities exceed the current assets by Rs. 12,701.41 Crore as at March 31, 2026. The liquidity crunch is affecting the Company's operation with increasing severity. The Secured lenders have recalled the various Loans, initiated recovery suits in the Debt Recovery Tribunals as well as filing a winding up petition with the National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai bench under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy code.
It only increased further in the year. The facilities of the Company with the Secured lenders are presently marked as NPA since June 2017. The liquidity crunch has resulted in several winding up petitions being filed against the Company by various stakeholders for recovery of the debts which the Company has been settling as per the mutually agreed repayment terms
More than 50% of the debt has been assigned to two Asset reconstruction companies by the lenders. The Company is negotiating a proposal for waiver of interest and penal charges and a haircut on the principal outstanding. This is being done on the basis of a potential investor. The Company expects the remaining bankers to follow suit on similar lines. The Company has had positive discussions with the ARC companies and is hopeful of a resolution fructifying with them
Therefore, the management continues to believe that going concern assumption is intact albeit with uncertainty in the area of acceptance by the lenders
The management is hopeful of obtaining approval of all the lenders to the above plan and execute documents accordingly and maintain its going concern status and to that effect is continuously engaged with the lenders for a solution
Therefore, in the view of the management the going concern assumption of GIL is intact and these financials are prepared on a going concern basis. The above action plan of the Company for repaying the debts and servicing the same including the necessary value of the balance stake being available and realisation of the claim amounts filed by the Company, monetisation of the stake sale of investments and also the acceptance of the resolution proposal by the lenders is exposed to material uncertainties which may affect the going concern assumption
37 Disclosure of transactions with Related Parties, as required by Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS) - 24 “Related Party Disclosures” has been set out in a separate Statement A.
38 Analytical Ratios as per requirements of Schedule III are given in Statement B
(ii) Fair Value Hierarchy
This section explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are (a) recognised and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortised cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
Fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade and other short-term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities, short term loans from banks and other financial institutions approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the shortterm maturities of these instruments.
Financial instruments with fixed and floating interest rates are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for the expected losses of these receivables.
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of the financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have significant effect on recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
(iii) Financial Risk Management Objectives And Policies
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The Company's financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company's financial risk management policy is set by the Managing Board.
(a) Market Risk :
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings.
The Company manages market risk through a treasury department, which evaluates and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The treasury department recommends risk management objectives and policies, which are approved by Senior Management and the Audit Committee. The activities of this department include management of cash resources, implementing hedging strategies for foreign currency exposures, borrowing strategies, and ensuring compliance with market risk limits and policies.
The Company's exposure in foreign currency is not material and hence the impact of any significant fluctuation in the exchange rates is not expected to have a material impact on the operating profits of the Company.
Derivative financial instruments
The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposures. The counterparty for these contracts is generally a bank or a financial institution. These derivative financial instruments are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in inactive markets or inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the market place.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to ' 543.79 Crore and ' 445.21 crore as of March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 respectively, unbilled revenue amounting to ' 9.22 crore and ' 31.74 crore as of March 31,2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. To manage this, the Company monitors whether the collections are made within the contractually established deadlines. In addition to this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limits are set accordingly.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk the company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information such as :
(i) Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business,
(ii) Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty,
(iii) Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty's ability to meet its obligations,
(iv) Significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty,
(v) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of third-party guarantees or credit enhancements.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. The Company categorises a loan or receivable for write off when a debtor fails to make contractual payments greater than 2 years past due. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised in profit or loss.
(e) Competition Risk:
The Company is operating in a highly competitive environment with various Companies wanting a pie in the project. This invariably results in bidding for projects at low margins to maintain a steady flow of the projects to enable the group to retain the projects team and to maintain sustainable operations for the Company and the SPVs. The ability of the Company to build the infrastructure at a competitive price and the ability to start the tolling operations is very important factor in mitigating the competition risk for the group.
(f) Input cost risk
Raw materials, such as bitumen, stone aggregates cement and steel, need to be supplied continuously to complete projects undertaken by the group. As mentioned in the earlier paragraph of the business risk and the competition risk the input cost is a major risk to attend to ensure that the Company is able to contain the project cost within the estimate projected to the lenders and the regulators. To mitigate this the group sub-contracts the construction of the facility at a fixed price contract to various subcontractor within and without the group.
40 Capital Management
For the purpose of the Group's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, convertible preference shares, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Group's capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Group 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 Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided byTotal capital plus net debt. The gearing ratio in the infrastructure business is generally high. The Group includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables, less cash and cash equivalents, excluding discontinued operations.
41 The information about transaction with struck off Companies (defined under section 248 of the Companies Act, 2013 or section 560 of Companies Act, 1956) has been determined to the extent such parties have been identified on the basis of the information available with the Company.
42 In the opinion of the Board of Directors, all assets other than fixed assets and non-current investments have a value on realization in the ordinary course of business at least equal to the amount at which they are stated in the Balance Sheet.
43 Audit Trail Disclosure
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) by the Companies (Accounts) Amendment Rules 2021 and vide notification dated 24 March 2021 has issued the “Companies (Audit and Auditors) Amendment Rules, 2021 has prescribed a new requirement for companies under the proviso to Rule 3(1) of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 inserted requiring companies, which uses accounting software for maintaining its books of account, shall use only such accounting software which has a feature of recording audit trail of each and every transaction, creating an edit log of each change made in the books of account along with the date when such changes were made and ensuring that the audit trail cannot be disabled.

The said feature is being enabled at application level and the same has been operated throughout the year for all transactions recorded.

44 Figures for the previous year have been regrouped / reinstated, wherever considered necessary.
