3.8 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities & ContingentAssets
3.8.1 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the companywill be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the presentvalue of those cash flows (when the effect of the timevalue of moneyis material).
3.8.2 Contingent Liability
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 financial statements.
3.8.3 ContingentAssets
A contingent asset is not recognized in the standalone financial statements. However, it is disclosed, where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. When the realization of income is virtually certain, then the asset is no longer a contingent asset, and is recognized as an asset.
3.8.4Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
3.9 Foreign CurrencyTransactions
The Company's financial statements are presented in INR, which is also the Company's functional currency.
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company at INR spot rate at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.
Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit orloss.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
3.10 Revenue from contractwith customers
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
3.10.1 Sale of Goods
Revenue from sale of goods is recognised at the point in time when control of the asset is transferredto the customer, generally on delivery of the goods The Company considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated in determining the transaction price for the sale of goods, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
3.10.2 Variable Consideration
If the consideration in a contract includes avariable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Some contracts for the sale provide customers with discounts. The discounts give rise to variable consideration.
i) Contract balances
a. ContactAssets
A contract asset 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 recognised for the earned consideration that is conditional.
b. Trade Receivables
Areceivable represents the Company's right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due).
c. Contract Liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.
3.10.3 Other Income
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Income from the sale of import licenses is recognized upon transfer of control of such licenses to the buyer, in accordance with IndAS 115, provided there is no significant uncertainty regarding measurability and collectability.
Exchange differences arising from trade receivables or payables denominated in foreign currency are accounted for under IndAS 21 and are presented as part of revenue or other income depending on the nature of the underlying transaction.
The gain or loss arising on disposal of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss under Other Income, determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.
Incentives on exports are recognized in books after due consideration of certainty of utilization/receipt of such incentives.
3.11 Employee Benefits
3.11.1 Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit and this is shown under current provision in the Balance Sheet. The Companymeasures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date.
3.11.2 Post-employment benefits
3.11.2.1 Defined Contribution plans
Defined contribution plans are those plans inwhich an entitypays fixed contribution into separate entities and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Provident Fund and Employee State Insurance are Defined Contribution Plans inwhich the companypays a fixed contribution andwill have no further obligation.
3.11.2.2 Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. Companypays Gratuity as per provisions of the Gratuity Act, 1972. The Company's net obligation in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value.Any unrecognized past service costs and the fair value of any plan assets are deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company's obligations and that are denominated in the same currencyin which the benefits are expected to be paid. The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in a liability to the company, the present value of liability is recognized as provision for employee benefit. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") in the period inwhich they arise.
3.12IncomeTax
3.12.1 CurrentTax
Tax expense comprises current tax and deferred tax. Current tax expense is recognized in the statement of profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity, in which case it is recognized in OCI or equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates
enacted or substantively enacted and as applicable at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previousyears. Current taxes are recognized under'Income tax payable'.
3.12.2 DeferredTax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be utilised.
3.12.3 MinimumAlternate Tax
Minimum alternate tax (MAT) paid in a year is charged to the statement of profit and loss as current tax for the year.
The deferred tax asset is recognised for MAT credit available only to the extent that it is probable that the concerned company will pay normal income tax during the specified period, i.e., the period for which MAT credit is allowed to be carried forward. In the year in which the company recognizes MAT credit as an asset, it is created by way of credit to the statement of profit and loss as credit in current tax expense and shown as part of deferred tax asset. The company reviews the “MAT credit entitlement" asset at each reporting date and writes down the asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that it will pay normal tax during the specified period.
3.13 Leases
At inception of contract, the Company assesses whether the Contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, the Company allocates consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative standalone price.
As lessee
i) Right of UseAssets
The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received and estimate of costs to dismantle. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets.
The Company presents right-to-use assets within the same line item as that within which the corresponding underlying assets would be presented if they were owned by the Company.
ii) Lease Liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the discount rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.
iii) Short term leases and lowvalue of assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases. It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption that are considered to be lowvalue. Lease payments on short term leases and leases of lowvalue assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
3.14 Earnings per Share
Basic Earnings per share (EPS) amounts are calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders adjusted for the effects of potential equity shares by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential equity shares into equity shares.
3.15 Statement of Cash Flows
Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS 7 'Statement of Cash Flows' for operating activities.
3.16 Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
3.16.1 FinancialAssets
a. Initial Recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit orloss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
b. Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
• FinancialAssets at amortised cost
• FinancialAssets at fairvalue through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
• FinancialAssets including derivatives and equity instruments at fairvalue through profit or loss (FVTPL)
• Equityinstruments measured at fairvalue through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
c. Debt instruments at amortized cost
A ‘debt instrument' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
d. Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through' arrangement; and either (a) the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
e. Impairment of Financial Instrument
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure.
a. Financial assets that are debt instruments, and are measured at amortised cost e.g., loans, debt securities, deposits, trade receivables and bank balance.
b. Financial assets that are equityinstruments and are measured as at FVTOCI
c. Lease receivables underIndAS 116
d. Trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that arewithin the scope of IndAS 115.
The Company follows ‘simplified approach' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on:
• Trade receivables
• All lease receivables resulting from transactionswithin the scope of IndAS 116
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.
3.16.2 Financial Liabilities\
a. Initial Recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fairvalue and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts, financial guarantee contracts and derivative financial instruments.
b. Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial Liabilities at FairValue through profit and loss.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the profit or loss. The Company has not designated any financial liability as at fairvalue through profit and loss
c. Loans and borrowings
This is the category most relevant to the Company. After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIRmethod. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised aswell as through the EIRamortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIRamortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
d. Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a newliability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit orloss.
3.17 FairValue Measurement
The Company measures financial instruments, such as, derivatives at fairvalue at each balance sheet date.
Fairvalue is the price 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. The fairvalue measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fairvalue, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fairvalue hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fairvalue measurement as awhole:
Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 — Valuation techniques forwhich 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
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fairvalue measurement as awhole) at the end of each reporting period.
External valuers are involved for valuation of significant assets, such as properties and significant liabilities, such as contingent consideration.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fairvalue hierarchy as explained above.
3.18 Impairment of non-financial assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or cash-generating units (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or company of assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.
3.19 Segment Reporting
The main business of the Company is of manufacturing and sales of C.I. Castings. All other activities of the Company revolve around the main business. There is only one reportable segment. Hence, disclosures pursuant to Ind AS 108 Operating Segments are not applicable.
3.20 Operating Cycle
Based on the nature of products/activities of the Company and the normal time between acquisition of assets and their realization in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and liabilities current and noncurrent.
4 Major Estimates made in preparing Financial Statements
4.1 Useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment is based on a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry and known technological advances) and the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the asset.
Useful life of the assets other than Plant and machinery are accordance with Schedule II of the CompaniesAct, 2013.
The Company reviews at the end of each reporting date the useful life of property, plant and equipment, and are adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. Intangible assets are amortized over a period of estimated useful life as determined by the management.
4.2. post-employment benefit plans
Employee benefit obligations are measured on the basis of actuarial assumptions which include mortality and withdrawal rates aswell as assumptions concerning future developments in discount rates, the rate of salaryincreases and the inflation rate. The Company considers that assumptions used to measure its obligations are appropriate late and documented. However, any changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the resulting calculations.
4.3. Provisions and contingencies
The assessments undertaken in recognizing provisions and contingencies have been made in accordance with Ind AS 37, 'Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. The evaluation of the likelihood of the contingent events has required best judgment by management regarding the probability of exposure to potential loss. Should circumstances change following unforeseeable developments, this likelihood could alter.
4.4. Allowance for credit losses on receivables
The Company determines the allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience adjusted to reflect current and estimated future economic conditions. The Company considered current and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Company deals with and the countries where it operates. In calculating expected credit loss, the Company has also considered credit reports and other related credit information for its customers to estimate the probability of default in future.

The Corporate Treasury function reports quarterly to the company's risk management committee, an independent body that monitors risks and policies implemented to mitigate risk exposures.
38.4 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 three types of risks - interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk in a fluctuating market environment. Financial instrument affected by market risks includes loans and borrowings, deposits, FVTOCI Investments, derivatives and other financials assets.The Company has designed risk management frame work to control various risks effectively to achieve the business objectives. This includes identification of risk, its assessment, control and monitoring at timely intervals.
38.4.1 Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk of impact related to fair value or future cash flows of an exposure in foreign currency, which fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on certain transactions that denominated in a currency (primarily with respect to USD and EURO) other than entity's functional currency (INR), hence exposure to exchange rate flucidations arises. the functional currencyvalue of cash flows will vary as a result of movements in exchange rates. The Company's exposure to foreign currency risk is nominal.
38.4.2 Interest Rate Risk Management
The Company manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate of interest on loans and borrowings. Company has loans taken from banks are linked to MCLR rate of the bank, which are variable.
38.4.3 Interest Rate SensitivityAnalysis
The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for borrowings at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher/lower and all other variables were remain constant, the company's:
i) Profit before tax for the year ended March 31, 2025 would have increased/ decreased by Rs. 20.00 lakh (March 31, 2024: decrease/ increase by Rs. 17.14 lakh)

The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the company can be required to pay. The tables include both interest and principal cash flows. To the extent that interest flows are floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from interest rate curves at the end of the reporting period. The contractual maturity is based on the earliest date on which the company may be required to pay.
