p. Provisions and Contingencies
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. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain.
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 recognised as a finance cost.
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the Company recognises any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.
A 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 or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the Standalone financial statements. Provisions and contingent liability are reviewed at each balance sheet.
q. Related party transactions
The transactions with related parties are made on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions. Outstanding balances at the period-end are unsecured and settlement occurs in cash or credit as per the terms of the arrangement. Impairment assessment is undertaken each financial year through examining the financial position of the related party and the market in which the related party operates.
r. Commitments
Commitments are future liabilities for contractual expenditure, classified and disclosed as follows:
• estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for;
• uncalled liability on shares and other investments partly paid;
• funding related commitment to subsidiary, associate and joint venture companies; and
• other non-cancellable commitments, if any, to the extent they are considered material and relevant in the opinion of management. Other commitments related to sales/ procurements made in the normal course of business are not disclosed to avoid excessive details.
s. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit 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 is adjusted for events such as fresh issue, bonus issue that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding, without a corresponding change in resources.
Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shares holders of
the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations. Potential dilutive equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.
t. Investments in Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint Ventures
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by another entity.
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but does not have control or joint control over those policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The Company's investments in its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are accounted at cost less impairment.
Impairment of Investments
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments carried at cost annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is recorded in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the Investment is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the cost of the Investment. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in Statement of Profit or Loss.
u. Changes in accounting policies and disclosures New and amended standards
The Company applied for the first-time certain standards and amendments, which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2024. The Company has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has notified Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2024 to amend the following Ind AS which are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2024.

(refer note 32).
The Company operates a gratuity plan covering qualifying employees. 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.

The employees do not contribute towards this plan and the full cost of providing these benefits are met by the Company. In case of death while in service, the gratuity is payable irrespective of vesting. The Company's obligation towards Gratuity is a Defined Benefit plan which is funded.
The average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting period is 2 years (31 March 2024 - 15 years).

However, during the year ended 31 March 2025, provision for employee benefit for executive directors has been considered during acturial valuation.
The Company is exposed to the following risks in the defined benefits plans :
Investment risk : The present value of the defined benefit obligation 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 assets is below this rate, it will create a plan deficit.
Interest risk : A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by increase in the return on the plan's debt investments.
Longevity risk : The present value of the 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.
Salary growth risk : The present value of the defined benefit plan is calculated with the assumption of salary increase rate of plan participants in future. Deviation in the rate of increase of salary in future for plan participants from the rate of increase in salary used to determine the present value of obligation will have abearing on the plan's liability.

45 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's standalone financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the standalone financial statements:
i) Project revenue and costs
The Company recognises revenue and profit/loss on the basis of (Input method) entity's efforts i.e. costs incurred on an accrual basis to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation. The recognition of revenue and profit/loss therefore rely on estimates in relation to total estimated costs of each contract. Cost contingencies are included in these estimates to take into account specific uncertain risks, or disputed claims against the Company, arising within each contract. These contingencies are reviewed by the Management on a regular basis throughout the contract life and adjusted where appropriate The revenue on contracts may also include variable consideration (variations and claims). Variable consideration is recognised when the recovery of such consideration is highly probable. Also read with note 3(c).
ii) Cost to complete
For assessing onerous contracts the Company is required to estimate the costs to complete of each contract. Provision for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.
iii) Impairment of financial assets and contract assets
The Company's Management reviews periodically items classified as receivables and contract assets to assess whether a provision for impairment should be recorded in the statement of profit and loss. Management estimates the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the level of provisions required. Such estimates are necessarily based on assumptions about several factors involving varying degrees of judgement and uncertainty. Details of impairment provision on contract assets and trade receivable are given in Note 9 & 14.
The Company reviews its carrying value of investments annually, or more frequently when there is indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than it's carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for. Also read with note 3(g).
iv) Litigations
From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings the ultimate outcome of each being always subject to many uncertainties inherent in litigation. A provision for litigation is made when it is considered probable that a payment will be made, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgement is made when evaluating, among other factors, the probability of unfavourable outcome and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss. Litigation provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and revisions made for the changes in facts and circumstances. Litigations and contingent liabilities are disclosed in note 41.
v) Defined benefit plans
The cost of the defined benefit plans and the present value of the defined benefit obligation are based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. 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 (refer note 3(j)). All assumptions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
vi) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment, investment property and intangible assets
The Company has estimated useful life of each class of assets based on the nature of assets, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating condition of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, etc. The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant and equipment, investment property and intangible assets as at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation and amortisation expense in future periods.Useful lives are based on Schedule II of Companies Act and where the same is different, the Company has technical opinion for the same. Further, the useful life estimate is consistently being followed year-on-year. Also read with note 3(d).
vii) Operating lease commitments - Company as lessee
The Company has entered into leases for office premises. The Company has determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, such as the lease term not constituting a major part of the economic life of the office premises and the fair value of the asset, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and accounts for the contracts as operating leases. Also read with note 3(o).
46 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 recognised in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in accounting policies, to the financial statements.
(A) Fair Values:
The following tables presents the carrying amount and fair value of each category of financial assets and liabilities as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024.
Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost:
The carrying amounts of trade receivables, loans, advances and cash and other bank balances are considered to be the same as their fair values due to their short term nature. The carrying amounts of long term loans given with floating rate of interest are considered to be close to the fair value.
The carrying amounts of trade and other payables are considered to be the same as their fair values due to their short term nature. The carrying amounts of borrowings with floating rate of interest are considered to be close to the fair value
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and / or disclosing the fair value of financials instruments by valuation techniques.
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.
47 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 1. Principal revenue generating activities
The Company is primarily engaged in the business of Engineering, Procurement and Construction. The Company measures progress and recognizes revenue over time contracts using the input method, based on the actual cost of work performed at the end of the reporting period as a percentage of the estimated total contract costs at completion. The input method faithfully depicts the Company's performance in transferring control of goods and services to the customer, provides meaningful information in respect of satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligation towards the customer.
Information about the Company's performance obligations are summarised below:
Engineering, procurement and construction on Lump-sum basis: Engineering, procurement and construction on Lump-sum basis is considered to have one performance obligation since the activities are not distinct within the context of contract. The performance obligations is satisfied over the contract period using input based measure of progress as a method of accounting.
Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on terms of 45 to 90 days. Trade receivables are reduced by provision for expected credit losses.
Contract assets is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognized for the earned consideration that is conditional. For each contract, the revenue recognized at the contract's measure of progress using input method, after deducting the progress payment received or receivable from the customers, is presented within the contract assets line item in the balance sheet as project excess cost.
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or service to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer.
The Company's contracts may result in recognising revenue in excess of billings done as "Project excess costs” on balance sheet under Contract Asset. The company's contract may also result in recognising revenue less than the amounts billed to the customer, which is classified as "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings” on the balance sheet under contract liabilities."
4. There is no reconciliation of the amount of revenue recognised in the statement of profit and loss with the contracted price since there is no adjustment such as discount, liquidated damages etc.
5. Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations
The aggregate value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligation is INR 9,73,856.81 Lakhs as at 31 March 2025, (INR 8,74,253.36 Lakhs as at 31 March 2024) out of which part of performance obligation is expected to be recognised as revenue in next year and balance thereafter. The unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations are subject to variability due to several commercial and economic factors.
The Company's operations are mainly confined in India. As such, there are no reportable geographical segments.
48 Capital Management
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, securities premium and all 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.

49 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, trade and other payables and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances and other financial assets that derive directly from its operations.
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company's senior management is supported by a risk management committee that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The Company's financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified measured and managed in accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives.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 risk comprises of interest rate risk and price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include borrowings and FVTPL Investments.
a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates. Further, the Company has borrowings with fixed interest rates ranging between 7.40% to 14.80%.
The Company manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate borrowings.
b) Interest rate sensitivity:
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on exposure to interest rates for long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates at the end of the reporting period and the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period in case of term loans that have floating rates.
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were held constant, following is the impact on profit and pre-tax equity. A positive effect in basis points leads to decrease in profit and negative effect is increase in profit.
B) Price Risk
The Company's exposure to Price risks arises from investments in equity shares and mutual funds amounting to INR 214.86 Lakhs (Previous Year INR 8.5 Lakhs). The investments are held for strategic rather than trading purpose. The sensitivity analysis has been determined based on the exposure to price risk at the end of the reporting period. If the prices of the above instruments had been 5% higher/lower, profit for the year ended 31 March 2025 would increase/ decrease by INR 10.74 Lakhs (Previous year by INR 0.43 Lakhs).
C) 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 and contract assets) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions and other financial instruments. The Company only deals with parties which has good credit rating/ worthiness given by external rating agencies or based on Companies internal assessment.
Trade receivables
The major exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables and contract assets.
The Company's customer profile includes mainly large private corporates and government bodies. The Company's average project execution cycle is around 36 to 48 months. General payment terms include mobilisation advance, monthly progress payments with a credit period ranging from 45 to 90 days and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. In some cases retentions are substituted with bank/corporate guarantees. The Company has a detailed review mechanism of overdue customer receivables at various levels within organisation to ensure proper attention and focus for realisation.
Unbilled revenue (Contract assets)
The costs incurred on projects are regularly monitored through the Project budgets. Costs which are incurred beyond the agreed terms and conditions of the contract, would be claimed from the customer, based on the actual works performed. The realisability of such claims, is verified by professionals, who certify the tenability of such claims and also the collectible amounts, by applying appropriate probabilities. Costs, which are identified as non tenable or costs beyond the collectible amounts, as mentioned above, would be provided in the books of accounts.
For trade receivables and contract assets, as a practical expedient, the Company computes credit loss allowance based on a provision matrix. The provision matrix is prepared based on historically observed default rates over the expected life of trade receivables and contract assets.
D) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting 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 manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.The Company assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be low.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments.
