* The Company had filed a Commercial Suit in the Honourable Madras High Court, against Google LLC and its affiliates ("Google"), challenging the service fee charged under the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement (DDA). This was pertaining to payments made by Company's customers for in-App Purchases, downloaded from the Google Play Store effective from April 26, 2023. In this regard, the Company amongst other reliefs, sought for injunction from the Honourable Madras High Court against delisting Company's Apps from Google Play Store for non-compliance of the DDA.

On August 03, 2023, the Honourable Madras High Court rejected the plaint filed by the Company on grounds of jurisdiction and the said order was challenged in the Division Bench of Honourable Madras High Court. The appeal was dismissed on the grounds of jurisdiction vide its order dated January 19, 2024. The Company has filed an appeal challenging the order with the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India. Pending outcome of the appeal with the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, the management has made the best estimate of the economic outflow and recorded a provision towards service fee for the applicable period.

Further, the Company’s Apps were delisted from the Google play Store on March 01, 2024. Subsequently,the Company changed its business model, for which service fee charged under DDA is not applicable and upon review of the submissions made by Company to Google, all the Company's Apps were restored in the Google play store on March 06, 2024.

(a) Employees' Provident Fund (EPF): During the year ended March 31, 2015, the Company received a demand order from Regional Commissioner of Provident Fund, on account of non- inclusion of various allowances for the calculation of Provident Fund (PF) contribution for the period April 2012 to May 2014, which was disputed by the Company. Pending conclusion of the related proceedings, the Honourable Supreme Court issued an order dated February 28, 2019, in a matter similar to the case involving the Company as detailed above. Subsequently, during the year 201920, the Company received demand order from PF Recovery Officer to pay ' 163 lakhs to the respective employee PF accounts or by way of Demand Draft (DD) in favour of Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. The Company during the year 2019-20, obtained an interim stay on this demand. The Company has paid ' 163 lakhs of the demand and ' 8 lakhs of interest under protest. Company has further remitted an additional amount of ' 10 lakhs penalty.

There are numerous interpretative issues relating to this Supreme Court judgement. The Company based on legal advice received and management ’s evaluation and best estimate, had made a provision for the demand amount of ' 163 lakhs and interest of ' 73 lakhs. As a matter of prudence, the Company has also provided for ' 20 lakhs for further periods. Based on evaluation of the Supreme Court order, the management has determined that the position followed for periods subsequent to the demand (as above), i.e. from May 2014 is appropriate. The Company has accounted for a total provision is ' 256 lakhs as at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025. The Company has created the above provision without prejudice to its legal rights under the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952.

Based on legal advice obtained and management assessment in this regard, no provision is deemed necessary towards interest and penalty on PF demanded for employees whose details are not identifiable and with respect to the penalty for employees, whose details are identifiable. Accordingly, interest obligation of ' 63 lakhs and damages for ' 153 lakhs respectively are disclosed as contingent liabilities as at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 (refer note 35(c)).

(b) Service Tax: The Company had received a demand order of ' 350 lakhs along with interest and penalty from Commissioner of Service Tax for non-payment of service tax on certain services rendered during the period FY 200809 to 2012-13. The Company has filed an appeal with Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT) and had deposited ' 26 lakhs towards statutory pre-deposit for filing such appeal. As a matter of prudence, the Company

had provided ' 14 lakhs for service tax demand, ' 37 lakhs for interest upto FY 2024-25 and an additional amount of ' 2 lakhs during FY 2025-26. The Company has accounted for a total provision is ' 53 lakhs as at March 31, 2026. Based on evaluation of the technical position as well as legal advice obtained from experts, management believes that the ultimate outcome of this proceedings would be favourable. The Company has disclosed the balance demand amount of ' 336 lakhs and interest and penalty aggregating to ' 1,190 lakhs as contingent liability. (Refer note 35(c)).

32 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with I nd AS requires the Company’s management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised in the financial statements that are not readily apparent from other sources. The judgements, estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors including estimation of effects of uncertain future events that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates (accounted on a prospective basis) are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. The following are the critical judgements and estimations that have been made by the management in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements and/or key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

(A) Judgements

In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

(i) Fair value measurement of financial instruments

When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow model ("DCF"). 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. See Note 38 for further disclosures.

(ii) Leases

The Company has entered into leases for office premises, branches and retail outlets. The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.

The Company has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Company applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. It considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate.

(B) Estimates and assumptions

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 these 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.

(i) Taxes

Determining of income tax liabilities using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted requires the management to estimate the level of tax that will be payable based upon the Company’s / expert’s

interpretation of applicable tax laws, relevant judicial pronouncements and an estimation of the likely outcome of any open tax assessments including litigations or closures thereof.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses, unabsorbed depreciation and unused tax credits could be utilized.

In respect of other taxes which are in disputes, the management estimates the level of tax that will be payable based upon the Company’s / expert’s interpretation of applicable tax laws, relevant judicial pronouncements and an estimation of the likely outcome of any open tax assessments including litigations or closures thereof.

(ii) 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. The value in use calculation is based on a DCF model. The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Company is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset’s performance of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. These estimates are most relevant to investments held by the Company.

(iii) Defined benefit plans

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuation. 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. Further details about gratuity obligations are disclosed in Note 34.

(iv) Share-based payments

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimation requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The Black-Scholes valuation model has been used by the management for share-based payment transactions. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 33.

(v) Depreciation on property, plant and equipment

The management has estimated the useful life of its property, plant and equipment based on technical assessment. The estimate has been supported by independent assessment by internal technical experts and review of history of asset usage. The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are likely to be used.

(vi) Leases - Estimating the incremental borrowing rate

The Company cannot readily determine the interest rate implicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. The IBR is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The IBR therefore reflects what the Company ‘would have to pay’, which requires estimation when no observable rates are available or when they need to be adjusted to reflect the terms and conditions of the lease. The Company estimates the IBR using observable inputs (such as market interest rates) when available and is required to make certain entity-specific estimates.

37 SEGMENT REPORTING

For management purposes, the Company’s operations are organised into two major segments - Matchmaking services and Marriage services.

Matchmaking services - The Company offers online matchmaking services on internet and mobile platforms. Matchmaking services are delivered to users in India and the Indian diaspora through websites, mobile sites and mobile apps complemented by a wide on-the-ground network in India

Marriage services & others - The Company offers marriage services consisting of Mandap, Wedding Bazaar, Wedding gift box, Manyjobs and MatchAstro.

The Management Committee headed by Managing Director consisting of Chief Financial Officer and Heads of Departments have identified the above two reportable business segments. The committee monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment.

Note:

1) Considering the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) does not review segment assets and liabilities as the Marriage services segment is significantly smaller compared to the Matchmaking segment and supplemented by the fact that the assets are interchangeably used between segments, the Company has decided to disclose only segment results.

2) Segment revenue, segment results, and other segment disclosures include the respective amounts identifiable to each of the segments as also amounts allocated on a reasonable basis. Those which are not allocable to a segment on reasonable basis have been disclosed as "Unallocable".

3) The Company delivers matchmaking services to its users in India and the Indian diaspora through its websites, mobile sites and mobile apps complemented by its on-the-ground network in India. Therefore revenue from none of the customers exceeds 10% of Company's total revenue.

38 FAIR VALUES

Set out below, is a comparison by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, other than those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximations of fair values. The management assessed that the cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, security deposits, other financial assets, loans, lease liabilities and other financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.

39 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans, trade payables, FVTPL investments and receivables.

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 change in market interest rates.

The Company does not have any credit facilities from any banks or financial institutions. As a result, changes in interest rates are not likely to substantially affect its business or results of operations.

Interest rate sensitivity

The Company does not have any credit facilities from any banks or financial institutions. As a result, changes in interest rates are not likely to substantially affect its business or results of operations.

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an expense will fluctuate because of change in foreign exchange rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the

Company's operating activities (when revenue or expenses is denominated in a foreign currency) and the Company's net investment in foreign subsidiary.

The majority of the Company's revenue and expenses are in Indian Rupees, while a certain percentage of revenue is denominated in US dollars. The Company has not entered into any foreign exchange forward contracts to cover its foreign exchange exposure. The Company monitors the exposure due to foreign currency fluctuations and decides not to hedge based on its internal policy.

The impact of unhedged foreign currency exposure in the statement of profit and loss:

The following table demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD, AED and BDT exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The Company’s exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. In the matchmaking segment, the Company collects the money upfront, hence there is no credit risk. With respect to marriage & other services segment, the Company collects only part of the consideration as an advance before the performance of services, thus exposed to credit risks. Credit quality of a customer cannot be assessed as the Company is largely in to Business to Customer (B2C) model, however the Company through its established policy, procedures and control relating to credit risk management manages the credit risk. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date and the Company has a provisioning policy for making provision on receivables. The Company does not hold collateral as security.

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company’s treasury department in accordance with the Company’s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty so as to minimise concentration of risks and mitigate consequent financial loss. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Company’s Board of Directors on an annual basis, and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of the Company’s Risk Committee. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk was ' 32,951 lakhs and ' 34,883 lakhs as at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 respectively, being the total of the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, investment in mutual funds, investment in tax free bonds, investment in commercial paper, investment in corporate bonds, loans, security deposits, trade receivable and other financial assets excluding equity & preference share investments. Aging of the credit impaired trade receivables is disclosed in Note 10.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements of the Company.

The Company's prime source of liquidity is cash and cash equivalent and the cash generated from operations. The Company invests its surplus funds in bank, fixed deposits, mutual funds and other reputed market instruments which carry minimal mark to market risks.

40 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to maximise the shareholders' value.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. The Company's policy for capital management aims to enhance capital efficiency by the long-term improvement of its value through business growth, while maintaining a sound financial structure.
