x) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets:
Provisions are recognized only when there is a present obligation, as a result 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.
Contingent liability is disclosed for:
(a) Possible obligations which will be confirmed only by future events not wholly within the control of the Company or
(b) Present obligations arising from past events where it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation cannot be made.
Contingent assets are disclosed where an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
xi) Leases:
A contract is, or contains, a lease, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an assets for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Company as a lessee:
The Company’s lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for office premises. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. The ROU assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or
prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
ROU assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. ROU assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates in the country of domicile of these leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related ROU asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
However, company is having lease with term of 12 months or less (short term leases). the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet. Interest expense on lease liability is reported as finance cost in the Statement of Profit and Loss and lease payments have been classified as financing cash flows.
xii) Earnings Per Share:
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
For the purpose calculating Diluted Earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. .

Note ‘40’- Financial Risk Management Framework - Objectives and Policies
The Company is committed to create value for its shareholders through sustainable business growth and with that intent has put in place a robust risk management framework to promote a proactive approach in reporting, evaluating and resolving risks associated with the business of the Company. Given the nature of the business the Company is engaged in, the risk management framework recognizes that there is an uncertainty in creating and sustaining such value as well as in identifying opportunities. Risk management is therefore made an integral part of the Company’s effective management practice.
The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprise borrowings and trade and other payables. The main purpose of this financial liabilities is to finance and support the Company’s operations. The Company’s principal financial assets include loans, investments, cash and cash equivalents and other receivables that are derived directly from its operations. As a financial lending institution, the Company is exposed to various risks that are related to its lending business and operating environment. The principal objective in the Company’s risk management processes is to measure and monitor the various risks that the Company is subject to and to follow policies and procedures to address such risks.
The Company is generally exposed to Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk, Market Risk and Operational Risk.
(i) Credit Risk
The Credit Risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit Risk arises principally from the risk of loss that may occur from the default of the Company’s customers under loan agreements. Customer defaults and inadequate collateral may lead to loan losses.
The Company is exposed to the risk that its customers default in repayment of loans or advances granted by the Company. Customers may default on their obligations owed to the Company due to insolvency, lack of liquidity, operational failure etc. Significant failures by the customers to timely perform their obligations owed could materially and adversely affect the company’s financial position, ability to borrow incremental funds, ability to meet business expenses and to repay, make the re-payment to its lenders and creditors in a timely manner.
The credit risk may also arise due to the business, operational, technological parameters and business environment in which the company operates. Due to some challenges that may be specific to the customer, there may be failure on the part of a customer to meet its performance obligations and pose a credit risk to the Company. On the operational side, there could be a slippage in operational procedure and execution of policies leading to credit risk. Similarly technological redundancy and obsoleteness may also pose credit risk.
The Company lends both secured and unsecured loans to its customers. To mitigate the credit risk, the Company has implemented various policies and mechanisms, including the Credit Policy to define the broad principles which the Company follows to accept lending proposals, to manage the loan portfolio and recover its dues in adherence to RBI Regulations to protect the business assets of the Company.
Credit risk on Gold loan is considerably reduced as collateral is in the form of Gold ornaments which can be easily liquidated and there is only a distant possibility of losses due to adequate margin of 25% or more retained while disbursing the loan. Credit risk is further reduced through a quick but careful collateral appraisal and loan approval process. Hence an overall, the Credit risk is normally low. Further, an established process for customer verification, ornament valuation and purity checks, maximum loan value and auction of ornaments as per RBI stipulations with delegated powers at the branchs level and continuous monitoring by the Management of the Company helps to manage the credit risk. Similarly risk in respect of other secured loans are considerably reduced considering the available collateral securities.
To reduce the credit risk for other loans, the Company performs a detailed credit assessment on the prospective borrower, seeks security over some assets of the borrower and/or a guarantee from a third party. The Company takes all reasonable and business precautions through policies and procedures to mitigate and manage the credit risk in respect of such other loans.
The Company employs all recovery procedures, including follow up with the customer for payment, legal remedies for recovery, invocation and sale of collateral as per the policies of the Company and guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India.
The Senior management in the Company is responsible for the evaluation of internal financial controls and risk management systems. In addition to continuous monitoring by the Senior Management, the Company conducts regular internal audits through an in-house team of various branches to identify the scope of improvement/enhancement in the Company’s processes, quality control, fraud prevention and compliance with law & regulations. In addition, the internal audit reports of external agency are reviewed by the Audit Committee and placed before the Board.
At the portfolio level, the Company manages credit risk through limiting concentration of credit at individual borrower level, group levels, etc. The loan proposals are assessed based on various factors like repayment capacity, credit worthiness, repayment history, business/ professional profile, future business prospects, field investigation, quality & value of security, etc.
The credit risk is managed by a robust control framework by the risk and collection department which continuously align credit and collection policies and resourcing, obtaining external data from credit bureaus, reviews of portfolios and review of loan delinquency by senior and middle management team comprising of risk, analytics, collection and fraud containment along with business. The same is periodically reviewed by Risk Management Committee.
Despite all measures being taken by the Management of the Company, the financing business has an inherent risk of default by the customer in the repayment of the loan.
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Company might be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due as a result of mismatches in the timing of the cash flows under both normal and stress circumstances. Such scenarios could occur when funding needed for the business of the Company or to meet financial obligations is not available to the Company on acceptable / favourable terms. To limit this risk, management has arranged for diversified funding sources and adopted a policy of availing funding in line with the tenor and repayment pattern of its receivables and monitors future cash flows and liquidity on a regular interval. The Company has developed internal control processes and contingency plans for managing liquidity risk. This incorporates an assessment of expected cash flows and the availability of unencumbered receivables which could be used to secure funding by way of assignment if required. The maturity profile of financial assets and financial liabilities at undiscounted values is as under :
(d) Impairment Assessment
The Company is engaged in the business of providing loans against jewellery with a maximum tenure of 24 months, loan againts property with a maximum tenure of 144 months and unsecured business and personal loans generally with a maximum tenure of 60 months. The Company makes provision for credit loss allowance/impairment loss based on expected credit loss method as detailed out in material accounting policies and after considering provisioning requirement as provided in “Prudential Regulations” under Scale Based Regulations issued by Reserve Bank of India and read with erstwhile Non-Banking Financial Company Non-Systematically important Non-Deposit taking (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2016, as amended from time to time.
(iii) Market risk
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market factor. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the interest rates, credit, liquidity, and other market changes. The objective of market risk management is to avoid excessive exposure of our earnings and equity to loss and reduce our exposure to the volatility inherent in financial instruments. The company continuously monitors these risks and manages them through appropriate risk limits. The Management of the company reviews market-related trends and risks and adopts various strategies related to assets and liabilities, in line with the company’s risk management framework. The Company is exposed to four types of market risk as follows:
a) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is subject to interest rate risk, since there is a mismatch between borrowing and lending vis-a-vis fixed and floating rate interest and maturity period. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on short-term and long-term floating rate interest bearing liabilities. The Company’s policy is to maintain a balance of fixed and floating interest rate borrowings, maturity period and the proportion of fixed and floating rate debt are determined by prevailing interest rates. These exposures are reviewed by the management on a periodic basis.
b) Price Risk
A sudden fall in the gold price and a fall in the value of the pledged gold ornaments can result in default in loans repayment, if the outstanding loan and the interest thereon exceed the market value of the pledged gold. This risk is in part mitigated by a minimum 25% margin retained on the value of gold jewellery for the purpose of calculation of the loan amount. Further, we appraise the gold jewellery collateral solely based on the weight of its gold content, excluding the weight and value of the stones studded in the jewellery. In addition, the sentimental value of the gold jewellery to the customers may induce repayment of the amount due and redemption of the collateral even if the value of gold ornaments falls below the value of the loan outstanding amount due for payment. An occasional decrease in gold prices will not increase price risk significantly on account of our adequate collateral security margins. However, a sustained decrease in the market price of gold can additionally cause a decrease in the size of our loan portfolio and our interest income.
c) Equity Price Risk
Equity price risk relates to change in the fair value of investments in the equity instruments measured at fair value through OCI. As at March 31, 2025 the carrying value of such equity instruments recognised at fair value through OCI amounts to ' 1,400.52 Lakhs (PY. ' 1,427.92 Lakhs).
Operational risk is the risk of loss arising from inadequate or failed internal processess, human error, fraud, systems failure or from external events. When controls fail to operate effectively, operational risks can cause damage to reputation, have legal or regulatory implications, or lead to financial loss. The Company cannot expect to eliminate all operational risks, but it endeavours to manage these risks through comprehensive internal control systems, procedures and data back up processes. In order to further strengthen the control framework and effectiveness, the Company has established risk control self-assessment at branches to identify process lapses by way of exception reporting which enables the management of the Company to evaluate key areas of operational risks and the process to adequately mitigate them on an ongoing and timely basis. The Company also undertakes risk based audits on a regular basis across all branches/ functions. While examining the effectiveness of control framework through self-assessment, the risk- based audit would assure effective implementation of self certification and internal financial controls adherence, thereby, reducing Company’s operational risk.
d) Prepayment Risk
Prepayment risk is the risk that the Company will incur a financial loss because its customers and counterparties repay or request repayment earlier than expected, such as fixed rate loans when interest rates fall.
e) Foreign currency risk
Currency Risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. However the company is not exposed to the risk of fluctuations on change in exchange rates as the Company does not have any foreign transaction.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is the amount at which it could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
All the financial assets and liabilities of the Company are measured at amortised cost except for investments in equity instruments, which are classified at fair value through other comprehensive income and based on a fair valuation report of an independent registered valuer.
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments
by valuation technique:
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes Financial Instruments measured using quoted prices.
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 place limited reliance on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2
Level 3: I f one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level.
