Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
This section explains the judgements 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 Company has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.
Level 1: hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. The Company doesn't have investment in equity instruments that have quoted price.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2. Instruments in the level 2 category for the Company include forward exchange contract derivatives
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in this level. Instruments in level 3 category for the Company include unquoted equity shares.
Fair Value for Assets Measured at Amortised Cost
During the years mentioned above, there have been no transfers amongst the levels of hierarchy.
The carrying amounts of trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and other bank balances, current loans, other current financial assets, current borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are considered to be approximately equal to the fair value.
Note - 38 Financial Risk Management
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risk, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The company's primary risk management focus is to minimize potential adverse effect of market risk on its financial performance. The Comapany's risk management assessment, policies and process are established to identify and analyze the risk faced by the comapny, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and process are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the comapany's activities. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the company's risk assessment and management policies and processes
Financial risk management
The company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments
Credit risk Liquidity risk and Market risk
Credit risk:
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises pricipally from the company's receivables from customers. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the company grants credit terms in normal course of business. The company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts and impairment thats represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables and investments
Trade and other receivable:
The company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual charracteristic of each customer. The demographics of fhe customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
Expected credit loss assessment:
Exposure to customers outstanding at the end of each reporting period are reviewed by the company to determine and expected credit losses. Historical trends of impairment of trade receivables do not reflect any significant credit losses. Given that the macro economic indicators affecting customers of the company have not undergone any substantial change, the company expects the historical trend of minimal credit losses to continue. Further, management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible in full, based on historical payment behaviour and extension analysis of customer credit risk. The impairment loss at 31 March, 2024 related to several customers that have defaulted on their payments to the comapny and are not expected to be able to pay their outstanding balances, mainly due to economic circustances.
Cash and cash equivalents:
As on 31 March, 2024 the company held cash and cash eqivalents and other bank balances with credit worthy banks and financial institutions of Rs. 107.17/- (31 March, 2023 Rs. 294.65 /-). The creditworthiness of such banks and financial institutions is evaluted by the management on an ongoing basis and is considered to be good.
Liquidity risk:
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the company's reputation
The Company manages its liquidity risk by regularly monitoring its rolling cash flow forecasts. The Company's operations provide a natural liquidity of receivables against payments due to creditors. Borrowings are managed through credit facilities agreed with the Banks, internal accruals and realisation of liquid assets. In the event of cash shortfalls, the Company approaches the lenders for a suitable term extension
Market risk:
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchanges rates) or in the prices of market risk - sensitive instruments as as result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk - sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long - term debt. The Comapny is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of its investments. Thus, the Comapny's exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies
Currency risk:
The fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges rates may have potential impact on the profit and loss account, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/laibilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity
Considering the countries and economic environment in which the company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in USD against the respective functional currency of the company.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company's exposure to foreign currency risk, expressed in INR, is given in the table below. The amounts represent only the financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company.

Risk exposure and Asset Liability Matching
Provision of a defined benefit scheme poses certain risks, some of which are detailed hereunder, as companies take on uncertain long term obligations to make future benefit payments.
1. Liability Risks
a. Asset-liability Mismatch Risk:
Risk which arises if there is a mismatch in the duration of the assets relative to the liabilities. By matching duration with the defined benefit liabilities, the Company is successfully able to neutralize valuation swings caused by interest rate movements. Hence companies are encouraged to adopt asset-liability management.
b. Discount Rate Risk:
Variations in the discount rate used to compute the present value of the liabilities may seem small, but in practice can have a significant impact on the defined benefit liabilities.
c. Future Salary Escalation and Inflation Risk:
Since price inflation and salary growth are linked economically, they are combined for disclosure purposes. Rising salaries will often result in higher future defined benefit payments resulting in a higher present value of liabilities especially unexpected salary increases provided at management's discretion may lead to uncertainties in estimating this increasing risk.
2. Unfunded Plan Risk:
This represents unmanaged risk and a growing liability. There is an inherent risk here that the Company may default on paying the benefits in adverse circumstances, Funding the plan removes volatility in company's financials and also benefit risk through return on the funds made available for the plan.
