34 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS A. Gratuity
The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan (funded) and is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Act, which provides a lump sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee's salary and the tenure of employment. Vesting occurs on completion of 5 continuous year of services as per Indian Law. However, no vesting condition applies in case of death. The scheme is funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) in form of a qualifying insurance policy for future payment of gratuity to the employees.
The sensitivity analysis have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
The sensitivity analysis presented below may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correla te d.
Significant actuarial assumptions for the determination of the defined benefit obligation are discount rate , expected salary increase and withdrawal rate.
Liabilities are very less sensitive due to change in mortality assumptions. Hence,sensitivities due to change in mortality are ignored.
Furthermore, in presenting the below sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been c alculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet. There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
B. Provident Fund
Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The company has no obligation, other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The company recognizes contribution payable to the provident fund scheme as an expenditure, when an employee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.
35 DISCLOSURE OF TRANSACTION WITH RELATED PARTIES AS REQUIRED BY THE INDIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARD- 24 (Cont.)

36 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT A Financial Risk Factors
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings, leases, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to manage finances for the Company's operations. The Company has trade and other receivables, cash and short-term deposits that arise directly from its operations. The C ompany's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks detaile d below:-
a Market Risk
Market risk is th e ris k that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctua te because of changes in m arket p rices. Market prices comprise three types of risk: currenc y rat e ris k, interest ra te risk and other pri ce ris ks, such a s c ommodity risk. Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or futu re cash flows of a fin ancial in strument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchang e rates. Interest ra te risk is the risk that the fair value orfuture cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held as at March 31, 2025 and March 31,2024.
The sensitivity analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying value of post¬ employment benefit obli gations provisions and on the non-fin ancial as sets and liabilities. The se nsitivity of the relevant Statement of Profit and Loss item is the effect ofthe assumed changes in the respective market risks. The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
Foreign Exchange Risk and Sensitivity
The Company transacts business primarily in USD and Euro. The Company has foreign currency trade payables and receivables and is therefore, exposed to foreign exchange risk.
b Commodity Price Risk and Sensitivity
The Company is exposed to the movement in price of key raw materials in domestic and international markets. The Company has in place policies to manage exposure to fluctuations in the prices of the key raw materials used in operations.
c 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.
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, credit exposures from custome rs including outstanding receivables and other financial instruments.
Trade receivables a nd contract assets
The Company extends credit to customers in normal course of business. The Company considers factors such as credit track record in the market and past dealings for extension of credit to customers. The Company monitors the payment track record of the customers. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored. The Company evaluates the concentration o f risk with respect to trade receivab les as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets. The Company has obtained advances and security deposits from its customers & distributors, which mitigate the credit risk to an extent.
Provision for Expected Credit Loss
The Company extends credit to customers as per the internal credit policy. Any deviation are approved by appropriate officials, after due consideration of the customers credentials and financial capacity, trade practices and prevailing business and economic conditions. The Company's historical experience of collecting receivables and the level of defau l t indicate t hat c re dit risk is low and gen erally unif orm across markets; consequentl y, trade receivables are considered to be a sing l e class of financial assets. All overdue customer balances are evaluated taking in to account the age of the dues, specific c redi t circumstances, the track record of the customers etc. Loss allowances and impairment is recognised as per the Company policy.
The Company uses Lifetime expected credit losses (simplified approach) for doubtful trade receivables
36 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Cont.)
Others
All of the entity's debt investments (securities, loan to related parties and others and security deposits) at amortised cost are considered to have low credit risk, when they have a low risk of default and the issuer/holder has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term. For cash and cash equivale nts, the Company consid ers factors such as trac k record, size of the institution, market reputation and service standards to select the banks with which balances and deposits are maintained. The Company does not maintain sig nificant cas h balances oth er than those required for its day to day operations. The company invests in liquid schemes of mutual fund which have a very short maturity. These schemes are readily convertible and have insignifcant changes in value and are he ld as means for settling liabilities or for working capital limits from banks. The loss allowance recognised during the period was therefore limited upto 12 months expected losses.
d Liq uidity Risk
Liquidity risk is th e risk that the Company may not be able to meet its present an d future ca sh and collateral obligations without incurring unacceptable losses. The Company's overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of f inancial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's financial p erformance. The Company does not acquire o r issue derivativ e financ i al instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Risk management is carried ou t under policies approved by the board of directors. It identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close co-operation with the Company's operating units. The board provides principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Company's objective is to maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash requirements at all times. The current committed lines of credit are sufficient to meet its short to medium term expansion needs. The Company monitors rolling forecasts of its liquidity requirem en ts to ens ure it has sufficient cash to meet operational need s while maintaining suf ficient headroom on its u ndrawn committed borrowing faciliti es at all times so that the Company does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) on any of its borrowing facilities.
The table be low provides undiscounted cash flows towards non-derivative financial liabi l ities and net-settled derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity based on the remaining period at the balance sheet to the contractual maturity date.
e Competition Risk
Th e Company faces competition from local and foreign competitors. Nevertheless, it believes that it has competitive advantage in terms of high quality products and by continuously upgrading its expertise and range of products to meet the needs of its customers.
f Capital Risk Management
The Company 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 Company m ay adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return c apital to shareholders or issue new shares. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximize the shareholder value. The Company's primary objective when managing capital is to ensure that it maintains an efficient capital structure and healthy capital ratio and safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to support its business and provide maximum returns for shareholders. The Company also proposes to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or p rocesses during t he year ended March 31,2025 and year ended March 31,2024. The Company m onitors capital u sing gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by sum of capital and net de bt.
B Fair Value Heirarchy
Th e table below analysis financial instruments at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been i dentified as follows:
Level 1: - Quoted prices in active markets for identified assets or liabilities.
Level 2: - Inputs other than quoted prices included with level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, other directly (i.e.as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: - Inputs for the assets or lliabilities that are not based on observable market data (underrated inputs).
Fair Value Measurement of Financial Liabilities
When the fa ir values of financial assets and financial liabiliti es recorded in the ba l ance sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, t heir fair value is measured using valuati on techniques. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.
