(xii) Provisions (other than employee benefits)
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Expected future operating losses are not provided for.
Where the Company expects some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision will be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognised when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the entity settles the liability. The reimbursement is treated as a separate asset.
Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that the outflow of resources would be required to settle the liability, the provision is reversed.
Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risk specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as the finance cost.
(xiii) Leases
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a 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.
The Company as a lessee
The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for premises and concession rights.
To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether:
(1) the contract involves the use of an identified asset
(2) the company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and
(3) the company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
At the date of commencement of the lease, the company recognises 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 twelve months or less (short-term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low value leases, the company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
The ROU assets are initially recognised 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 if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability.
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.
The lease liability is initially measured at amortised 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 the leases. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.
(xiv) Impairment of assets
(a) Financial assets
A financial asset not carried at fair value is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.
Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not otherwise consider, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, the disappearance of an active market for a security. The entity considers evidence of impairment for receivables for each specific asset. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in statement of profit and loss and are reflected as an allowance account against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised as income through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through statement of profit and loss.
The company assesses at each date of Balance sheet whether a financial assets or Company of financial assets is impaired. In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the financial assets and credit risk exposure:
The Company follows 'simplified approach' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade receivables and contract assets. 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.
For recognition of impairment loss on other financial assets and risk exposure, the Company determines that whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk since initial recognition. The Company applies a simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Therefore,
the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Company has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.
(b) Non financial assets
Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are combined at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or Company's of assets (cash-generating units). Non-financial assets that suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period.
(xv) Common control business combinations transactions
Business combinations involving entities or businesses in which all the combining entities or businesses are ultimately controlled by the same party or parties both before and after the business combination and where that control is not transitory are accounted for as per the pooling of interest method. The business combination is accounted for as if the business combination had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established; for this purpose, comparatives are revised. The assets and liabilities acquired are recognised at their carrying amounts. The identity of the reserves is preserved, and they appear in the standalone financial statements of the Company in the same form in which they appeared in the financial statements of the acquired entity. The difference, if any, between the consideration and the amount of share capital of the acquired entity is transferred to capital reserve.
(xvi) Contingent liability and contingent asset
A Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity or a present Liability that arises from past events but is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the Liability or the amount of the Liability cannot be measured with
(xvi) Contingent liability and contingent asset (continued)
sufficient reliability. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in these Standalone Financial Statement.
Contingent asset is not recognised in standalone financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and is recognised. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
(xvii) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash flows are prepared using the indirect method, whereby profit/loss before extraordinary items and tax for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non- cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash receipts and payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated.
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet and cash flow statement comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
(xviii) Earnings per share Basic Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings/(loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and
attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for events, other than conversion of potential equity shares, that have changed the number of equity shares outstanding without a corresponding change in resources.
Diluted Earnings Per Share
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings/(loss) 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 after considering the effect of interest and other financing costs or income (net of attributable taxes) associated with dilutive potential equity shares.
(xix) Operating segment
An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the Company), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments of the Company are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
(xx) Dividend payment
Provision is made for the amount of any dividend declared, being appropriately authorised and no longer at the discretion of the entity, on or before the end of the reporting period but not distributed at the end of the reporting period.

(a) During the year ended 31 March 2025, the Company has pledged 29,48,400 equity shares of GMR Hospitality Limited ('GMR') (representing 8.40% of GMR's total Equity share capital and 28.00% of the Company's holding) in favour of a bank as collateral security to enable GMR to obtain following facilities :
(i) Term Loan facility for an aggregate amount not exceeding INR 640.00 million; and
(ii) Overdraft Facility of INR 30.00 million.

(b) During the year ended 31 March 2026, the Company subscribed to 18,15,000 equity shares of GMR pursuant to a rights issue at an issue price of Rs. 10 per equity share, aggregating to INR 18.15 million, as per board resolution dated 27 February 2026.
The rights issue was subscribed to proportionately by all shareholders of the joint venture and accordingly, the Company's shareholding in GMR remained unchanged at 30.00% before and after the allotment. Consequently, there was no change in the Company's joint control over the joint venture and no gain or loss was recognised in the stndalone financial statements on account of such subscription.
The investment in the joint venture continues to be accounted for under the equity method in accordance with applicable Ind AS requirements.
(c) During the year ended 31 March 2025, the Company has sold its stake of 75.01% in Semolina Kitchens Limited (formerly known as Semolina Kitchens Private Limited) (Semolina) (Wholly owned subsidiary) as on 14 October 2024. This has resulted in loss of control and effective from 15 October 2024 Semolina is being treated as a Joint venture.
(d) During the year ended 31 March 2026, the Company tendered 16,01,851 equity shares of its subsidiary, Travel Food Services (Delhi Terminal 3) Private Limited, pursuant to a buyback scheme. The resulting gain, representing the excess of the sale consideration over the proportionate carrying value of the shares tendered, has been recognised under 'Other Income' (Refer note 27).
(a) Loan amount of INR 927.39 million (31 March 2025: INR 1052.94 million) given to SSP Malaysia Sdn Bhd at 7.00% - 9.30 % for capital expenses, working capital management and other operational expenses. Loan amount is repayable in January 2028.

The equity shares are entitled to receive dividend as declared from time to time. The voting rights of an equity shareholder on a poll (not on show of hands) are in proportion to its share of the paid-up equity capital of the company. Voting rights cannot be exercised in respect of shares on which any call or other sums presently payable have not been paid.
Failure to pay any amount called up on shares may lead to forfeiture of the shares.
On winding up of the Company, the holders of equity shares will be entitled to receive the residual assets of the Company, remaining after distribution of all preferential amounts in proportion to the number of equity shares held.
(e) The Company has not made any buy-back, nor there has been an issue of shares by way of bonus shares during the period of five years immediately preceding the reporting date except issue of bonus and split of equity shares as mentioned in (f) below and issue of shares pursuant to Business combination as mentioned in note 54.

Without prejudice to the Company's rights, contentions and interests and pending conclusion of the arbitration proceedings, on a conservative and prudence basis, the Company recorded provision of the disputed concession fee and interest thereon.
26. Revenue from operations (continued)
The contract liabilities primarily related to the advance consideration received from the customer for which revenue is recognised at a point in time.
The amount of INR 16.20 million included in contract liabilities at 31 March 2025 has been recognised as revenue during the year ended 31 March 2026.
The amount of INR 15.13 million included in contract liabilities at 31 March 2024 has been recognised as revenue during the year ended 31 March 2025.
e) Revenues from three customers (31 March 2025: two customers) of the Company represented approximately INR 4,323.56 million (31 March 2025: INR 4,333.92 million) of the Company's total revenues.
The Company has a defined benefit plan for gratuity which provides for a lumpsum payment to vested employees on departure i.e. at retirement, death while in employment or on termination of employment. Vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service except death while in employment. Every employee who has completed five years or more of service gets a gratuity on departure at last drawn eligible monthly salary for each completed year of service. The Company provides for the liability in its books of accounts based on an actuarial valuation carried out by a qualified independent actuary.
The Gratuity scheme is not funded.
Benefit on normal retirement (i.e. 60 years): as per the provisions of The Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 with Limit of INR 2.00 million.
Benefit on death in service : Same as normal retirement benefit except that no vesting conditions apply.
Based on the actuarial valuation report obtained in this respect, the following table sets out the status of the gratuity plan and the amounts recognised in the Company's financial statements as at balance sheet date:
Interest rate risk:
The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If bond yields fall, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.
Salary inflation risk:
Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk:
This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.
The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same methods (present value of defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognised in the balance sheet.
(d) Effective 21 November 2025, the Government of India consolidated 29 existing labour regulations into four Labour codes, namely, The Code on Wages, 2019, The Industrial Relations Code, 2020, The Code on Social Security, 2020 and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, collectively referred to as the 'New Labour Codes'. Based on the requirements of New Labour Codes and relevant Accounting Standards, the Company has estimated the liability for employee benefits, which has resulted in an incremental expense on account of recognition of past service costs. The Company has presented the same under 'Employee benefit expenses" in the Statement amounting to INR 79.93 million. The Company continues to monitor the finalisation of Central/State Rules and clarification from the Government on other aspects of the Labour code and would provide appropriately accounting effect on the basis of such developments, if any, in subsequent period.
37. Share-based payment arrangements
a. Description of share-based payment arrangements
As at 31 March 2026, the Company had the following Share option plan (equity-settled):
On 18 June 2025, the Company established share option plans that entitle employees and Key managerial personnel to purchase shares in the Company. Under this plan, holders of vested options are entitled to purchase shares at Re. 1 at the respective grant date of options. Currently, these plans are limited to key management personnel and other senior employees.
The key terms and conditions related to the grants under these plans are as follows; all options are to be settled by the delivery of shares.
37. Share-based payment arrangements (continued)
b. Measurement of fair values
The fair value of the employee share options has been measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the arrangements were not taken into account in measuring fair value.
The requirement that the employee has to save in order to purchase shares under the share purchase plan has been incorporated into the fair value at grant date by applying a discount to the valuation obtained. The discount has been determined by estimating the probability that the employee will stop saving based on historical behaviour2. The inputs used in the measurement of the fair values at grant date of the equity-settled share-based payment plans are as follows:
38. Earnings Per Share (EPS) (continued)
Pursuant to resolutions passed by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in their respective meetings held on 24 October 2024, the face value of the equity shares of the Company was sub-divided from INR 10 each to Re. 1 each.
The Board of Directors at its meeting held on 5 November 2024 had approved the bonus issue of 2.4 new Equity Shares for every one share held on record date which was approved by the shareholders by means of a special resolution dated 8 November 2024. Through a Board resolution dated 8 November 2024, the Company has allotted 9,29,50,224 equity shares of Re. 1 each as bonus shares to the existing equity shareholders of the Company.
(D) There are no material related party transactions during the year that have conflict with the interest of the Company.
Transactions entered into with related parties during the period were in the ordinary course of business and at arms' length basis. All the balances of related parties are unsecured.
There are no transaction with KMP during the year ended 31 March 2026 and 31 March 2025 other than disclosed above.
43. Financial value measurements
A Financial risk management objective and policies
This section gives an overview of the significance of financial instruments for the Company and provides additional information on the balance sheet. Details of material accounting policies, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 2(B).
B Accounting classifications and fair values
The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy. It does not include fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value. Trade receivables and trade payables carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value.
Note: The above excludes investments in Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint ventures amounting to INR 608.13 million (31 March 2025: 602.28 million)
** FVTOCI Fair Value Through Other comprehensive income * FVTPL Fair Value Through Profit and Loss
C Measurement of fair values
The three levels of the fair-value-hierarchy under Ind AS 107 are described below:
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 rely as little as possible 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: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. D Financial Instruments not measured at fair value
Other financial liabilities - Discounted cash flows: The valuation model considers the present value of expected payments, discounted using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The own non-performance risk was assessed to be insignificant.
E Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, trade receivables, trade payables, other short term financial assets and financial liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values due to their short-term nature.
F Financial risk management
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
(a) liquidity risk
(b) market risk
(c) credit risk
43. Financial value measurements (continued)
G Risk management framework
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company's primary risk management focus is to minimise potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company's risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the policies and processes. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities. The Board of Directors and the management is responsible for overseeing the Company's risk assessment and management policies and processes.
(a) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the Company's reputation.
Exposure to liquidity risk
The table below analyses the Company's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities :
(b) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long-term debt.
G Risk management framework (continued)
(b) Market risk (continued)
(i) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to deposits with bank and financial institutions.
The exposure of the Company's financial assets as at 31 March 2026 to interest rate risk is as follows:
(ii) Currency risk
Foreign exchange risk arises on all recognised monetary assets and liabilities, which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the company. The company has not hedged any of the foreign currency transactions by derivative contracts/ forward contracts.
Exposure to Currency risk
The summary quantitative data about the Company's exposure to currency risk as reported to the management of the Company is as follows
(iii) Credit risk
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, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers, security deposits with lessors, loans and investments.
Credit risk in Cash and cash equivalents and investments in mutual funds is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits or mutual funds schemes with banks and financial institutions, respectively, with high rating assigned by credit-rating agencies. All of the Company's loans at amortised cost are considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance, if any, is limited to 12 months' expected losses. Management considers instruments to be low credit risk when they have a low risk of default and the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow liabilities in the near term.
The Company also carries credit risk on security deposits with landlords for properties taken on leases. The risk relating to refund of security after vacating the property is low since the lessors have strong capability to meet its contractual cashflow obligation and the possession of premises is retained till the refund is collected.
Trade and other receivables
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
The following table provides information about the exposure to credit risk and ECLs for trade receivables from individual customers:

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual liabilities resulting in financial loss to the company. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. Credit risk has always been managed by the company by continuously monitoring the credit worthiness of customers to which the company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
At 31 March 2026, the carrying amount of the trade receivables from the Company's significant customers (three customers (31 March 2025: two customers)) INR 2,613.20 million (31 March 2025: INR 747.95 million).
Expected credit loss assessment for trade receivables from customers
Based on the industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates, management considers that generally trade receivables and loans are in default (credit impaired) if the payments are more than 180 days past due. Management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 180 days are still collectible in full, based on extensive analysis of customer credit risk.
For the purpose of measuring lifetime ECL allowance for trade receivables and contract assets, the company has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. Individual trade receivables are written off when management deems them not to be collectible. The company follows a 'simplified approach' (i.e. based on lifetime ECL) for recognition of impairment loss allowance on Trade receivables and contract balances.
Management believes there is a significant increase in credit risk in respect of a loan of INR 60.00 millons given by the Company as explained in note 7(c). Accordingly, the management has made a provision of entire loan balance in the previous year.
The movement in the allowance for impairment in respect of trade and finance lease receivables and contract assets during the period was as follows:
Cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances
The Company considers that its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties. The Company uses a similar approach for assessment of ECLs for cash and cash equivalents to those used for debt securities.
Loans
All of the Company's loans at amortised cost are considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance, if any, is limited to 12 months' expected losses. Management considers instruments to be low credit risk when they have a low risk of default and the borrower has a strong capacity to meet its contractual cash flow obligations in the near term.
44. Capital management
The Company defines capital as total equity including issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to equity holders of the Company (which is the Company's net asset value). The primary objective of the Company's financial framework is to support the pursuit of value growth for shareholders, while ensuring a secure financial base.
The Company monitors capital using a ratio of 'net debt' to 'total equity'. For this purpose, net debt is defined as total interest¬ bearing loans and borrowings less cash and bank balances. Total equity comprises all components of equity.

(b) Segregation of lease/non lease component - As a practical expedient, Ind AS 116 permits a lessee not to separate non¬ lease components, and instead account for any lease and associated non-lease components as a single arrangement. Contracts for buildings includes non-lease component as well i.e. services for common area maintenance. The Company adopted the practical expedient given to not to segregate lease or non-lease component.
(c) Determination of lease term - The Company applied practical expedient available for use of hindsight in determination of lease term where contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.
49. Operating Segment
The Company mainly derives revenue from Travel QSR outlets and Lounge services. In addition, the Company also derives revenue from management and other services. The Company has disclosed products and service lines in "Note 26 - Revenue from operations" because of the nature and expected infrequency of the events giving rise to them, so as to allow users to understand better. These products and service lines comprise of only one operating segment, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's Board of Directors ('Chief Operating Decision Maker') to make decisions about resources to be allocated and assess its performance.
