m) Provisions:
Provisions are recognised when there is a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
Any reimbursement that the Company can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provisions.
Provisions ase reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If itis no longer probable shat an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provisiobs are rebersed. Where the effect of the time of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre¬ tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provisions due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
n) Contingencies:
Where it is not probable that an inflow or an outflow of economic resources will be required, or the amount cannot be estimated reliably, the asset or the obligation is not recognised in the statement of balancb sheet and is disclosed as a contingent asset or contingent liability. Possible outcomes on obligations/rights, whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one: or more future events are also disclosed as contingent assets or contingent liabilities.
0) Taxes on Income:
Tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. Current income tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961. Curreet tax includes taxes to be paid on the dtofit earned during the year and for the prior periods.
Deferred income taxes are provided based on the balance sheet approach considering the temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amonnta fo r financial reporting purposes at tlee reporting date.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balaeee sheet: dease:. Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that theae is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. In situotions where the company has unabsorbed depreciation or carry forward tax losses, all deferred tax assets are recognised only if it is probable that they can be utilised against future taxable profits.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The company writes off the carrying amount of a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient future taxableincomo will be availbble against which deferred tax asset can be realized. Any such write-off is reversed to the extent that it becomes reasonably certain that sufficient future taxable income will be available.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right axists to set otf current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
p) Prior period items:
In case prior period adjustments are material in nature, the company prepares the restated financial statement as required under Ind AS 8 - ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors”. In case of immaterial items, such adjustments are shown under respective itemsinthe Stntement of Profitand Loss.
q) Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investment with original maturities of three months orless that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and are held for meeting short-term cash commitments.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company’s cash management.
r) Segment Reporting:
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Executive Management/Chief operating decision maker (“CODM”).
s) 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.
Financial Assets:
a. Initial recognition and measurement:
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial asspts not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisitiop of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the statement of profit orloss. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
b. Subsequent measurement:
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in to following categories
a. Debt instruments at amortised cost
b. Debt Instruments at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
c. Equity instruments at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)
a. Debts Instruments at amortised cost:
A ‘Debt Instrument' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
i. The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
ii. Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to casd flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amou nt outstfnding.
Aftee initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
Amortised costis calculated bytakiag into tccount any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in other income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss.
In. Debt Instruments at Fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL):
As per the Ind AS 101 and Ind AS 109, the Company is permitted to designate the p reviously recognised financial asset at initial recognition irrevocably at fair value through profit andloss on the basis of fact and circumstances that exists on the date of transition to Ind AS. Debt instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
c. Equity instruments at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL):
Equity instruments in the scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable. Subsequent changes in the fair values at each reporting date are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
c. Derecognition:
A financial asset or- where applicable, a part of a financial asset is primarily derecognised when:
a. The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
b. 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.
When the company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates, if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the company continues to recognise the transnerred asset to the extent of the company's continuing involvement. In that case, the company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the company has retained.
d. Impairment of financial assets:
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies the expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on financial instruments.
Expected credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows thrt are due to the company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the entity expects to receive.
The management uses a provision matrix to determine the impairment loss on the portfolio of trade and other receivables. Provision matrix is based on its historically observed expected credit loss rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward looking estimates.
The expected creditloss allowance or reversal recognised during the period is recognised as income or expense, as the case may be, in the statement of profit and loss. In case of balance sheet, it is shown as an adjustment from the specific financial asset.
Firancial liabilities:
a. Initial recogn ition and measurement:
Atinitial recognition, all financial liabilities are recognised at fair value and in the case of loans, borrowings and
payables, tret of directly attributable transaction costs.
b. Subsequent measurement:
i. Financi al liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fairvalue through pnofit err loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Gains or losses on liabiiities held for trading are recognised in the profit or loss. The company does not designate any financial lihb ility at fair value through profit or loss.
ii. Financial liabilities at amortised cost:
Amortised cost, in the case of financial liabilities with maturity more than one year, is calculated by discounting the future cash flows with an effective interest rate. Effective interest rate amortisatinn is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss. Financial liability with maturity of less than one year is shown at transaction value.
c. Derecognition:
Financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled, or expires. The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability that has been extinguished or transferred to another party and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit car loss as other income or finance costs.
Reclassification:
The Company (determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on i nitial recognition. After initial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments and financial liabilities. If the Company reclassifies financial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which is the first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model . The Company does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses) orinterest.
t) Fair Value Measurement:
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a Nability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based can the presumption that the tran sactio n tee sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either
• in the principal market for such asset or liability, or
• in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market which is accessible to 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 valce measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market pa rticipant'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 availableto measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of uno bservableinputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fairvalue hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
a. Level I - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
b. Level 1 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value m easurements is directly or indirectly observable.
c. Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liablities that are recognised in the financial statements on recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by ce assessing the categorization (based on the lowest lhvel input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
41. Financial FRisk Management objectives and policies:
The company is exposed to financial risks arising from its operations and the use of financial instruments. The key financial risksinclude market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The company's risk manage ment policies focus on the unpredictability of financial risks and seek guidelines, where appropriate, to minimize the potential adverse impact of such risks. There has been no change to the company's exposure to these financial risks or the manner in which it manages and measures the risks.
The following sections provide the details regarding the Company's exposure to the financial risks associated with financial instruments field in the ordinary course of business and the objectives. policies and processes for the m anagement of these risks.
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade, and other payables. The main pnrpose of these financial liabilities is to finance and support the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents which are derived from its operations.
The company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's management oversees the mitigation of the risks. The Company's financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and those financial risks are identified, measured, and managed in accordance with the Company's pklicies and risk objectives. The management / board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized belew.
A. Market Risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks such as equity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and advances, deposits, investments in debt securities, mutual funds, and other equity funds.
a. Interest rate risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Company and the Company's financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from the loans and advances given by the company, investment in debt securities, investment in debt mutual funds and cash and cash equivalents.
The company's policy is to manage its interest rate risk by investing in fixed deposits, debt securities and debit mutual funds. Further, as there are no borrowings the company's policy to manage its interest cost does not a rise.
The comprny is not exposed to significant interest risk as at the respective reporting dates.
b. O ther price risk:
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk) whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its iss uer or- by factors affecting all similar financial instrum ents traded in the market.
The company invests surplus cash funds in Liquid, Debt, Equity and Balanced mutu al funds. Mutual fund investments are susceptible to market price risk mainly arising from changes in the interest rates or market yields which may impact the return and value of such investments. However due to the very short tenor of the underlying portfolio in the liquid schemes they do not pose any significant price risk.
B. Credif risk:
Credit risk ir the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments when a counterparty defaults on its oblirations. The Company's exposure to credit risk arises primarily from trade and other receivables. For other financial assets (including investment securities cash and short-term deposit) the Company minimise credit risk by dealing exclusively with high credit rating counterparties. The Company's objective is ter seek continurl revenue growth while minimising losses incurred due to increased credit risk exposure. The Company trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. It is the Company's policy that all customers who wish ro trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures.
In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company's exposure tee bad debts ir not significant.
a. Exposure Ao credit risk:
At the end of the reporting period the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each class of financial assets recognised in the statement ol financial positior. No oth er financial assets carry a significant exposure to credit risk.
la. Credit riskconcentration profile:
At the end of the reporting period there were no significant concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposures to credit risk in relation to each class of recognised financial assets is represented by the cnrrying amount of each financial assets as indicated in the balance sheet.
c. Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired:
Trade and other receivables that are neither past due nor impaired are creditworthy debtors with a good payment record with the Company. Cash and short-term deposits investment securities that are neither past due nor impaired are placed with or entered with reputable banks financial institutions or companies with high credit ratings and no history of default.
d. Financial assets that are either past due or impaired:
Trade receivables that are past due or impaired at the end of the reporting period for which lifetime expected credit loss has been provided by the company according to its policy. These are shown in the balance sheet at carrying value.
C. Liquid ity risk:
The risk that anentity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
The company ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational demands including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments:
Nochanges were made in the objectives, policies, or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31 March 2024 and 31March2023.
