p) Provisions, contingent assets and contingent liabilities

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:

• Possible obligations which will be confirmed only by future events not wholly within the control of the Company,
or

• 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 liabilities may arise from litigation, taxation and other claims against the Company. The contingent liabilities
are disclosed where it is management's assessment that the outcome of any litigation and other claims against the
Company is uncertain or cannot be reliably quantified, unless the likelihood of an adverse outcome is remote.

Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when inflow of economic benefit is probable, related asset is disclosed.

q) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders
(after deducting attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events including a bonus
issue.

For the purpose of 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 equity shares.

r) Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. Such
reclassification does not have any impact on the current year financial statements.

s) Recent accounting pronouncements:

Standards issued/amended and became effective

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified new standards or amendment to existing standards under Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. The Company has applied following amendments for the
first-time during the current year which are effective from 01 April 2024.

Amendments to Ind AS 116 - Lease liability in a sale and leaseback

The amendments require an entity to recognise lease liability including variable lease payments which are not linked
to index or a rate in a way it does not result into gain on Right of Use asset it retains.

Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts

MCA notified Ind AS 117, a comprehensive standard that prescribe, recognition, measurement and disclosure
requirements, to avoid diversities in practice for accounting insurance contracts and it applies to all companies i.e., to
all "insurance contracts" regardless of the issuer. However, Ind AS 117 is not applicable to the entities which are
insurance companies registered with IRDAI.

The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined that above
amendments do not have a significant impact on the Company's Standalone Financial Statements.

Standards issued but not yet effective

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. As at 31 March 2025, MCA has not notified any new
standards or amendments to the existing standards applicable to the Company.

3. Significant management accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's standalone financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying
disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience
and other factors that are considered to be relevant. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing
basis and any revisions thereto are recognized in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both the
current and future periods. Uncertainties about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that
have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the
standalone financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments,
however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such
changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

Defined benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial
valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the
future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the
complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in
these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. Information about the various estimates and
assumptions made in determining the present value of defined benefit obligations are disclosed in note 37.

Fair value measurements

In estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, the Company uses market observable data to the
extent available. Where such Level 1 inputs are not available, the Company establishes appropriate valuation techniques
and inputs to the model. 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. Information about the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of
various assets and liabilities are disclosed in note 40.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the
higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on
available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm's length, for similar assets or observable market prices
less incremental costs for disposing of the asset.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Determining whether property, plant and equipment are impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the relevant
cash generating units. The value in use calculation is based on a Discounted Cash Flow model over the estimated useful life
of the Power Plants. Further, the cash flow projections are based on estimates and assumptions relating to tariff, operational
performance of the Plants, life extension plans, market prices of coal and other fuels, exchange variations, inflation, terminal
value etc. which are considered reasonable by the Management

Impairment of Investments made / Loans given to subsidiaries

In case of investments made and loans given by the Company to its subsidiaries, the Management assesses whether there
is any indication of impairment in the value of investments and loans. The carrying amount is compared with the present
value of future net cash flow of the subsidiaries based on its business model or estimates is made of the fair value of the
identified assets held by the subsidiaries, as applicable.

Taxes

Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised,
based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies, including
estimates of temporary differences reversing on account of available benefits under the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available
against which the losses can be utilised.

Useful lives of depreciable/ amortisable assets

The Company estimates useful life of each class of assets based on its nature, the estimated usage, the operating condition,
past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, etc. The Company reviews the useful life of property, plant
and equipment and Intangible assets as at the end of each reporting period. This reassessment may result in change in
depreciation expense in future periods.

Income/ Revenue

Revenue from sale of power is recognised upon judgement by the management for recoverability of the claims based on
the relevant contractual terms / provisional rates as provided by the regulator / governing tariff regulations, to the extent
applicable, having regard to mechanism provided in applicable tariff regulations and the bilateral arrangement with the
customers, which may be subject to adjustments in future years, on receipt of final orders of the respective Regulatory
Authorities or final closure of the matter with the customers.

In certain cases, the Company has claimed compensation from the Discoms based on management's interpretation of the
regulatory orders and various technical parameters, which are subject to final verification and confirmation by the respective
Discoms and hence, in these cases, the revenues have been recognised during various financial years / periods on a prudent
basis with conservative parameters in the books in accordance with the terms of Power Purchase Agreement. The necessary
true-up adjustments for revenue Claims (including carrying cost / delayed payment surcharge) are made in the books on
final acknowledgement / regulatory orders / settlement of matters with respective Discoms or eventual recovery of the
claims, whichever is earlier.

Classification of Trade Receivables

In view of pending litigations on regulatory matters, the classification of disputed / undisputed trade receivables is a matter
of judgement based on facts and circumstances. The Company evaluates the fact pattern and circumstances, including
ongoing discussions with the state-owned power distribution Companies (Discom), for each such regulatory matter pending
to be adjudicated by the relevant authority. In cases, where discussions with Discom have not made reasonable progress
and matters are subjudice, the related receivables are classified as disputed, even though the management is reasonably
confident of recovering the dues in full, backed by the regulatory orders in favour of the Company. The management will
continue to monitor the developments on regulatory matters.

assets, both present and future, of the Amravati Project (refer note 17 and 43).

ii As at 31 March 2025, certain projects have experienced temporary delays due to supply chain/ labour force disruptions and
other factors beyond Company's control. However, based on management's assessment, these delays are not considered
indicators of impairment under Ind AS 36. The Company is already taking steps to resume active development on these
projects in due course and shall continue to monitor their progress periodically. None of the Company's projects are
temporarily suspended.

iii The Company does not have any capital-work-in progress that has significantly exceeded its cost compared to its original
plan.

iv) The above mentioned loans and intercorporate deposits carry contractual rate of interest ranging from 0.001% p.a. to
20% p.a. over the tenure of the loan.

v) The Company, under the One Time Settlement scheme (OTS), had issued Redeemable Preference Shares (RPS) in
December 2019 to the lenders of the Company, that had become redeemable on 27 December 2021. However, inspite
of having sufficient cash and cash equivalent balance, the redemption of such RPS could not be done due to limitations
as per the provisions of section 55(2) of the Act which state that such redemption is permissible only out of profits
earned by the Company which are otherwise available for dividend, after adjusting the accumulated losses as read
with section 123 of the Act, or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purposes of such redemption.
The Company has been in active discussions with the RPS holders to extend the time period for redemption of RPS,
however, the approval from the lenders is awaited as on date. The liability towards RPS has been presented as 'current
financial liabilities' in these standalone financial statements.

During the year ended 31 March 2025, one of the RPS holders, holding 28,720,978 RPS aggregating to ' 28.72 crore in
the Company, had filed an application against the Company and subsidiary company- Poena Power Development
Limited ('PPDL') (whose shares are pledged with RPS holders and inter-corporate deposit given of ' 250 crore is also
assigned to RPS holders), under Section 7 of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 ('IBC Code') on 26 April 2024,
which is not yet admitted, demanding redemption of the principal amount along with interest and dividend.

The management based upon inputs from legal experts and relying upon relevant favorable judicial pronouncement,
is of the view that the application filed under Section 7 of IBC Code is not maintainable under applicable laws and
believes that the same is not expected to have any material impact on these standalone financial statements and/or
on the operations and functioning of the Company.

32 Details of contingent liabilities, pending litigations and other matters:

A. Claims against the Company not acknowledged as debt:

1. During the year ended 31 March 2022, the Company had filed writ petition before Hon'ble Delhi High Court ('Delhi
HC') and had sought relief and direction to Ministry of Power and Ministry of Coal as well as Western Coalfields
Limited ('WCL') and Mahanadi Coalfields Limited ('MCL'), the subsidiaries of Coal India Limited, for returning of Bank
Guarantees issued pursuant to Letter of Assurance (LOA), as the Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA) against this LOA was not
materialized and Company had not utilized this for any coal supply to the plant. Subsequently during the quarter
ended 30 June 2022, The Company had received letters from WCL & MCL informing cancellation of LOA and invocation
of bank guarantee amounting to ' 54.96 crore. The Company had filed an application of stay before Delhi HC and in
response thereto, the Delhi HC had directed WCL & MCL not to take any coercive action pursuant to their letters. The
Company based upon inputs from legal experts believes that it has a strong case and accordingly, no provision is
considered necessary in these standalone financial statements at this stage.

2 During the year ended 2010-11, the Company had entered into a contract with Bharat Heavy Electrical Limited ('BHEL')
for erection and supply of certain material including boiler turbine generator package, for phase II of its thermal
power project at Amravati. Consequent to such original contract, BHEL supplied certain material that were not warranted
at that relevant time and there were various communication made by the Company with BHEL requesting for taking
away such excess material from the project site. Subsequently, BHEL initiated arbitration proceedings against the
Company, alleging the outstanding payment against claims towards supply and services, taxes thereon, loss of profit,
corporate and other overheads etc., due to breach of terms of the Supply Contract and Service Contract.

The Hon'ble High Court of Delhi disposed off the petition in earlier year, with the instruction to the parties that petition
before Hon'ble High Court be treated as an application under Section 17 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996,
before the Arbitral Tribunal. The arguments have been concluded under the said arbitration during the year. The
award has been reserved in the said matter.

In April 2016, BHEL had also filed separate application under Section 31(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act,
1996 Act, before the Arbitral Tribunal, seeking interim award of ' 115 crores, as part payment towards supply and
services. The Hon'ble Tribunal had heard arguments of both the parties and an interim award of ' 115 crores against
the Company was passed vide order dated 27 July 2017. Subsequently, the Company had filed a petition against the
said interim award under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 Act before the Hon'ble High Court of
Delhi, that has been dismissed vide order dated 06 March 2025 by the Single Bench of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi.
Pursuant to the above, the Company has filed an appeal under section 37 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996,
before the Division bench of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi on 05 April 2025, that is yet to be heard and is currently
pending disposal.

In response to another application filed on 02 May 2023, the Hon'ble High Court Hon'ble High Court of Delhi vide
separate order dated 08 August 2023 had allowed attachment of certain assets in connection with the interim award
dated 27 July 2017, subject to any prior charge already created on the said assets in favour of third parties.

As per the Company, BHEL's claim for supply is not tenable as BHEL's act of dumping of material at site in a non¬
sequential manner was completely contrary to the agreed terms of contract and further, the claims for loss of profit
and corporate and other overheads are completely frivolous. The management, based on inputs from its legal experts
and merits of the case, is of the view that the Company has strong position in the said matter and is taking all necessary
steps to protect its interests and the likelihood of any additional liability devolving on the Company (other than those
already recorded) is not probable and there is no additional impact, requiring any adjustment in these standalone
financial statements.

except that the Company does not have any limit on gratuity amount.

Investment in subsidiaries are measured at cost as per Ind AS 27, 'Separate financial statements' and hence, not
presented here.

ii) Risk management

The Company's risk management activities are subject to the management direction and control under the framework
of Risk Management Policy as approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The management ensures appropriate
risk governance framework for the Company through appropriate policies and procedures and the risks are identified,
measured and managed in accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives.

The Company is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Company's financial assets and
liabilities by category are summarised in note 40(i). The Company's financial liabilities (other than derivatives) comprises
mainly of borrowings including interest accrual, leases, trade, capital and other payables. The Company's financial
assets (other than derivatives) comprise mainly of investments, cash and cash equivalents, other balances with banks,
loans, trade and other receivables.

A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Company. Credit risk arises from cash
and cash equivalents, trade receivables, investments carried at amortised cost and deposits with banks and financial
institutions. The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets
recognised at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024, as summarised below:

The Company continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties, and incorporates this information
into its credit risk controls. The Company's policy is to deal only with creditworthy counterparties.

The Company's management considers that all of the above financial assets are not impaired and/ or past due for each
of the above assets reporting dates under review are of good credit quality.

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a
significant increase in credit risk on an on-going basis throughout each reporting period. In general, it is presumed that
credit risk has significantly increased since initial recognition if the payments are more than 30 days past due. A
default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make contractual payments when they fall due. This
definition of default is determined by considering the business environment in which entity operates and other macro¬
economic factors.

(i) The Company's management considers assets other than trade receivables, which are 30 days past due and
analyses facts and circumstances surrounding each such defaults separately. If the facts indicate a probability of
loss of value, the asset's then expected cash flows are plotted in present value based impairment model to
determine the amount of impairment loss. Amounts are written off only in the following circumstances: a) no
probable legal recourse is available for recovery, b) the counterparty is bankrupt, c) the cost of recovery is more
than the amount or d) after all possible efforts the Company is unable to recover amounts after a period of 3
years.

Similarly, substantial part of Company's financial assets, other than trade receivables are recoverable from
Company's subsidiary, which the management of the Company believes are not credit impaired and there are no
12 month expected credit losses that are required to be recognised, other than those already assessed and
recorded.

(ii) The Company has no such assets where credit losses have been recognised as none of the assets are credit
impaired. The Company's trade receivables are only with a single, government owned counter party and to be
recovered under the power purchase agreement and also have interest clause on delayed payments. Therefore,
these trade receivables are considered high quality and accordingly no life time expected credit losses are
recognised on such receivables based on simplified approach.

(iii) The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances is considered negligible, since the
counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.

B) Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the
nature of the business, the Company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed
facilities.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis
of expected cash flows. The Company takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates.

b) Interest rate risk
Liabilities/assets

The Company's policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long-term financing. At 31 March
2025 and 31 March 2024, the Company is not exposed to changes in market interest rates through borrowings at
variable interest rates. The Company's fixed deposits are carried at amortised cost and are fixed rate deposits.
They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor
the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

50 The operations of the Company fall under the "Power generation and allied activities" business, which is considered to be
the only reportable segment in accordance with the provisions of Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments. Further the Company
derives revenue from a single external customer and currently the Company operations are domiciled in India and therefore,
there is no reportable geographical segment.

51 Leases disclosure

The Company has entered into a Power Purchase Agreement with MSEDCL (Lessee) for the supply of electricity for a term
of 25 years, which has been considered as an embedded lease arrangement for the Company's power plant. Such lease is
classified as operating lease, and as such the revenue is recognized on straight line basis. Considering that the capacity
charges per unit is higher in the initial years, there is a negative impact to P&L on account of straight lining. Accordingly,
capacity charges charged by the Company are treated as lease rentals. The minimum lease payments under non-cancellable
operating leases to be charged by the Company are as follows:

The Company has elected not to recognise a lease liability for short term leases (leases of expected term of 12 months or
less) or for leases of low value assets. Payments made under such leases are expensed on a straight-line basis. In addition,
certain variable lease payments are not permitted to be recognised as lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred.

52 During the previous year, the Company's overseas subsidiary company- Bracond Limited and step- down subsidiary
companies- Geneformus Limited and Renemark Limited, had been dissolved effective 27 March 2024, as certified by
Department of Insolvency, Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry, Cyprus. Accordingly, during the current year, same
was taken on record by Competent Authority and the UIN allotted to the Bracond Limited was cancelled.

53 In light of the ratio laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Civil Appeal No 5399-5400 of 2016 in the matter of Energy
Watchdog vs CERC vide judgment dated 11 April 2017 followed by judgment dated 13 November 2020 of Appellate Tribunal
for Electricity (APTEL) and order dated 16 November 2021 of MERC, RPL has recomputed its Change in Law claims and has
raised supplementary invoice on MSEDCL, as directed by MERC. Subsequently, vide interim Order dated 14 February 2022,
the Hon'ble Supreme Court directed MSEDCL to pay 50% of the outstanding claim amount till the time the matter attains
finality. Further, on 27 March 2023, the Hon'ble Supreme Court dismissed the civil appeal 1805/2021 filed by MSEDCL.
Accordingly, MSEDCL has paid ' 876.84 crore till date and is in the process of making the balance payment, in compliance
with the aforesaid order. Hence, it would not be unreasonable to expect the realization of the amount of compensation
along with interest recorded in the books of account, in relation to the aforesaid developments.

55 The Company held non-current investment of ' 1,211.82 crore (net of impairment provision of ' 1,814.40 crore) and loans
under 'current financial assets' of ' 33.32 crore (net of impairment provision of ' 43.34 crore) recoverable from Sinnar
Thermal Power Limited ('STPL'), an erstwhile wholly-owned subsidiary company upto 18 January 2024. During the previous
year, the National Company Law Tribunal, New Delhi ('NCLT') vide Order dated 19 January 2024, had dismissed STPL's
appeal, and had reinitiated the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process ('CIRP') under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy
Code, 2016 ('IBC'). Consequently, the powers of the Board of Directors of STPL were suspended and the management of
STPL vested with the Resolution Professional ('RP') appointed under the provisions of IBC and accordingly, STPL has ceased
to be a subsidiary of the Company with effect from 19 January 2024.

In view of uncertainties associated with the outcome of CIRP and as a matter of prudence, during the year ended 31 March
2024, the Company had recorded full impairment of its investment (Gross investment amount: ' 3,026.22 crore; impairment
provision already recorded in earlier years: ' 1,814.40 crore; Balance impairment recorded during the previous year: '
1,211.82 crore) in and write off of loans extended to STPL (Gross amount of loans extended: ' 81.81 crore; impairment
provision already recorded in earlier years: ' 48.49 crore; balance loss recorded during the previous year: ' 33.32 crore),
resulting in accounting for aggregate impairment/ write off expense of ' 1,245.14 crore during the previous year ended 31
March 2024, that had been presented as an exceptional item in the standalone financial statements.
