11. Provisions & Contingent liabilities and assets

a. Provisions are recognized only when there is a present obligation, because of past events and when a reliable
estimate of the amount of obligation can be made at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each
reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Provisions are discounted to their present values,
where the time value of money is material.

b. Contingent liability is disclosed for (i) Possible obligations which will be confirmed only by future events not
wholly within the control of the Company or (ii) Present obligations arising from the past events where it is
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount
of obligation cannot be made.

c. Contingent assets are neither recognized nor disclosed except when realization of income is virtually certain,
related asset is disclosed.

12. Taxation

Tax expense recognized in Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax
except the ones recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current tax is determined as the tax payable in respect of taxable income for the year and is computed in accordance
with relevant tax regulations. Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized
outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).

Minimum Alternate Tax (‘MAT’) credit entitlement is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there is
convincing evidence that normal income tax will be paid during the specified period. In the year in which MAT credit
becomes eligible to be recognized as an asset, the said asset is created by way of a credit to the Standalone Statement
of Profit and Loss and shown as MAT credit entitlement. This is reviewed at each balance sheet date and the carrying
amount of MAT credit entitlement is written down to the extent it is not reasonably certain that normal income tax will
be paid during the specified period.

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the
financial statement and the corresponding tax bases used in computation of taxable profit under Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is
realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at
the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss is
recognized outside Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).

13. Financial Instruments

i) Financial Assets

A. Initial Recognition and Measurement

All Financial Assets are initially recognized atfair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition orissue of Financial Assets, which are not at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss, are adjusted to the
fair value on initialrecognition. Purchase and sale of Financial Assets are recognised using trade date accounting.

B. Subsequent measurement

a) Financial Assets measured at Amortised Cost(AC)

A Financial Asset is measured at Amortised Cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to
hold the assetto collect contractual cash flows and the contractualterms of the Financial Asset give rise on
specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.

b) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI)

A Financial Assetis measured at FVTOCI if itis held within a business model whose objective is achieved by
both collecting contractual cash flows and selling Financial Assets and the contractual terms of the Financial
Asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the
principal amount outstanding.

c) Financial Assets measured at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (FVTPL)

A Financial Asset which is not classified in any ofthe above categories are measured at FVTPL.

C. Investments in subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are carried at cost/deemed cost less accumulated
impairmentlosses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of investment is
assessed and an impairment provision is recognized, if required immediately to its recoverable amount. On
disposal of such investments, difference between the net disposal proceeds and carrying amount is recognized in
the statement of profit and loss.

D. Other Equity Investments

All other equity investments are measured at fair value, with value changes recognized in Statement of Profit and
Loss, except for those equity investments for which the Company has elected to present the value changes in
‘Other Comprehensive Income’.

E. Impairment of Financial Assets

The Company measures the expected credit loss associated with its assets based on historical trend, industry
practices and the business environment in which the entity operates or any other appropriate basis. The
impairment methodology applied dependson whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

ii) Financial Liabilities

A. Initial Recognition and Measurement

All Financial Liabilities are recognized atfair value and in case of borrowings, net of directly attributable cost.
Fees ofrecurring nature are directly recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss as finance cost.

B. Subsequent Measurement

Financial Liabilities are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Fortrade and other payables maturing within one yearfrom the balance sheet date,the carrying amounts
approximate fair value due to the short maturity ofthese instruments.

iii) Derecognition of Financial Instruments

The Company derecognizes a Financial Asset when the contractualrights to the cash flows from the Financial Asset
expire orittransfers the Financial Asset, and the transfer qualifies for derecognition underInd AS 109. A Financial
liability (or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the Company’s Balance Sheet when the obligation
specified in the contractis discharged or cancelled or expires.

iv) Offsetting

Financial Assets and Financial Liabilitiesare offset, and the net amountis presented in the balance sheet when, and
only when,the Company has a legally enforceable rightto set off the amount and itintends, eitherto settle them on a net
basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously

14. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing profit or loss for the year by the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the year. Partly paid-up shares are included as fully paid equivalents according to the
fraction paid up.

Diluted earnings per share have been computed using the weighted average number of shares and dilutive potential
shares except where the result would be anti-dilutive.

15. Government Grants

Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will
be received and the Company will comply with all attached conditions.

Government grants relating to the purchase of property, plant and equipment are included in non-current liabilities as

deferred income and are credited to Profit and Loss on a straight - line basis over the expected lives of related assets
and presented within other income.

16. Leases

For any new contracts entered on or after 1 April 2019, (the transition approach has been explained and disclosed in
Note 31) the Company considers whether a contract is or contains a lease. A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a
contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period in exchange for consideration’.

Classification of leases

The Company enters leasing arrangements for various assets. The assessment of the lease is based on several factors,
including, but not limited to, transfer of ownership of leased asset at end of lease term, lessee’s option to
extend/purchase
etc.

Recognition and initial measurement

At lease commencement date, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet.
The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial
direct costs incurred by the Company, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease
(if any), and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received).

Subsequent measurement

The Company depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the
earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of use asset or the end of the lease term. The Company also assesses the
right of use asset for impairment when such indicators exist.

At lease commencement date, the Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments
unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the
Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up
of fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) and variable payments based on an index or rate. After
initial measurement, the liability will be reduced for payments made and increased for interest. It is re-measured to
reflect any reassessment or modification, or if there are changes in in-substance fixed payments. When the lease
liability is re-measured, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset.

The Company has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical expedients.
Instead of recognizing a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognized as an
expense in standalone statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

17. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended). For the year ended 31 March 2025, MCA has
notified amendments toInd AS 116 “Leases”, relating to sale and leaseback transactions, which is applicable w.e.f. 01
April 2024. The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined that it is
not likely to have any impact in its standalone financial statements.

B. New standards and amendments issued but not effective -

New standards and amendments issued but not effective - On 7 May 2025, MCA notifies the amendments to Ind AS
21 “Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”. These amendments aim to provide clearer guidance on assessing
currency exchangeability and estimating exchange rates when currencies are not readily exchangeable. The

amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. The Company is currently assessing
the probable impact of these amendments on its standalone financial statements.

C. Critical estimates and judgements -

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which will seldom equal the actual
results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company’s accounting policies.

This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and items
which are more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those
originally assessed. Detailed information about each of these estimates and judgements is included in relevant notes
together with information about the basis of calculation for each affected line item in the financial statements.

The areas involving critical estimates or judgement are:

i. Estimation of current tax expenses and Payable and Recognition of deferred tax assets for carried forward
tax losses

The Company’s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in estimating budgeted profits
for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount
expected to be paid / recovered for uncertain tax positions (refer note 28). The extent to which deferred tax
assets/minimum alternate tax credit can be recognized is based on management’s assessment of the
probability of the future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets/minimum alternate tax credit
can be utilized.

ii. Probable outcome of matters included under Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities may arise from the ordinary course of business in relation to claims against the
Company, (refer note 30). By their nature, contingencies will be resolved only when one or more uncertain
future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of
contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgments by management and the use of
estimates regarding the outcome of future events.

iii. Recoverability of advances / receivables

At each balance sheet date, based on historical default rates observed over expected life, the management
assesses the expected credit losses on outstanding receivables and advances.

iv. Classification of leases

The Company enters leasing arrangements for various premises. The assessment (including measurement) of
the lease is based on several factors, including, but not limited to, transfer of ownership of leased asset at
end of lease term, lessee’s option to extend/terminate etc. After the Commencement date, the Company
reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control
and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to extend or to terminate.\

v. Inventories

The Company estimates the net realizable values of inventories, considering the most reliable evidence
available at each reporting date. The future realization of these inventories may be affected by future
demand or other market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices.

vi. Provisions

At each balance sheet date basis, the management judgment, changes in facts and legal aspects, the
Company assesses the requirement of provisions against the outstanding contingent liabilities. However, the
actual future outcome may be different from this judgement.
