The Gratuity Scheme is invested in a New Group Gratuity Cash Accumulation Plan Policy offered by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance Company Limited. The information on the allocation of the fund into major asset classes and expected return on each major asset are not readily available. The expected rate of return on plan assets is based on market expectations, at the beginning of the year, for returns over the entire life of the related obligation.
Sensitivities due to mortality and withdrawals are not material and hence the impact of change due to these are not calculated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting year) has been applied when calculating the provision for defined benefit plan recognised in the Balance Sheet
The method and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to the previous years
Although the analysis does not take account of the full distribution of cash flows expected under the plan, it provides an approximation of the sensitivity of the assumptions shown.
Risk exposure:
The defined benefit plan is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:
a) Salary increases - Actual salary increases will increase the plan's liability. Increase in salary increase rate assumption in future valuations will also increase the liability
b) Investment risk - If plan is funded then assets/liabilities mismatch and actual investment return on assets lower than the discount rate assumed at the last valuation date can impact the liability
c) Discount rate - Reduction in discount rate in subsequent valuations can increase the plan's liability
d) Mortality and disability - Actual deaths and disability cases proving lower or higher than assumed in the valuation can impact the liabilities
e) Withdrawals - Actual withdrawals proving higher or lower than assumed withdrawals and change of withdrawal rates at subsequent valuations can impact plan's liability
III Liabilities for leave obligation
The leave obligations cover the Company's liability for sick and privilege leaves. The amount of provision with respect to leave obligation is INR 21.43 million (31 March 2022: INR 20.70 million) is presented as current, since the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for any of these obligations. However, based on past experience, the Company does not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months. The expense recognised during the year towards leave encashment is INR 8.05 million (31 March 2022: INR 15.09 million)
Note 34 Fair Value
The fair value of the financial assets are included at amounts at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value:
(a) Fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade and other short-term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities, approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
(b) Financial instruments with fixed and variable interest rates are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for the expected losses of these receivables.
B Fair value hierarchy
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
Note 35(C)(i) : The Company has completed its Initial Public Offer (IPO) of 26,900,530 equity shares of face value of INR 2 each at an issue price of INR 357 per share (including a share premium of INR 355 per share) that were listed on National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) and Bombay Stock exchange Limited (BSE) on 22 December 2022.

Such expenses have been recovered from the selling shareholders during the year and the balance recoverable amount of INR 28.10 million (31 March 2022: INR 19.72 million) from selling shareholders has been presented under other current financial assets in these financial statements.

Note 36 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance.
i Market risk
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. Major financial instruments affected by market risk includes loans and borrowings
a. Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's total debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The assumed movement in basis points for the interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market environment, showing a significantly higher volatility than in prior years.
b. Foreign currency risk
Although, the exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed in recent years, it has not affected the results of the Company. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows established risk management policies.
Note 36 Financial risk management objectives and policies (Contd)
Note :
The Company's exposure of foreign currency financial instruments as at respective reporting dates is not material and consequentially the impact on Statement of Profit and Loss due to fluctuation in exchange rates would also be immaterial. Therefore, the disclosure for sensitivity analysis not been included in the standalone financial statements
c. Equity price risk
The Company's non-listed equity securities are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investment securities. The Company manages the equity price risk through diversification and by placing limits on individual and total equity instruments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Company's senior management on a regular basis. The Company's Board of Directors reviews and approves all equity investment decisions.
At the reporting date, the exposure to:
o unlisted equity securities at fair value through other comprehensive income is INR 0.03 million (31 March 2022: INR 0.03 million).
o unlisted equity in subsidiaries at cost of INR 274.58 million (31 March 2022: INR 269.86 million) ii 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 (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, financial assets. Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount.
a Trade receivables (net of loss allowance)
Trade receivables are unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from two main classes of trade receivables i.e. receivables from sales to government corporations and receivables from sales to private parties. A substantial portion of the Company's trade receivables are from government corporation customers having strong credit worthiness. Further, Company's historical experience of collecting receivables is that redit risk is low. Hence trade receivables are considered to be a single class of financial assets.
b Financial assets other than trade receivables
Financial assets other than trade receivables comprise of cash and cash equivalents, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, government grant receivables and loan to subsidiaries / employees. The Company monitors the credit exposure on these financial assets on a case-to-case basis. Loans to subsidiaries are assessed for credit risk based on the underlying valuation of the entity and their ability to repay within the contractual repayment terms.
iii Liquidity risk
Liquidity is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at a reasonable price. The Company's treasury department is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management. Management monitors the Company's net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows.
Note 37 Capital management
The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise the shareholder's wealth.The Company's policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Board of Directors monitor the return on capital employed as well as the level of dividend to shareholders.
Note 38 Leases - Ind AS 116 (Contd)
In the long run, the Company's strategy is to continue to maintain the gearing ratio of less than 0.75. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company's capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the borrowings that define the capital structure requirements. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current or previous financial year.
Note 38 Leases - Ind AS 116
Right-of-use Assets:
The net carrying value of right-o f-use assets as at 31 March 2023 amounts to INR 89.81 million (31 March 2022 : INR 92.81 million) have been disclosed on the face of the balance sheet (Also refer note 3A)
Note 42 Disclosures required pursuant to Ind AS 102 - Share Based Payment
The Company has granted stock options under the employee stock option schemes. As at 31 March 2023, employee stock option scheme Employee stock option scheme (ESOS 2020) and Employee stock option scheme (ESOS 2021) are in existence. These options would vest based on the vesting conditions as per letter of grant executed between the company and the employee of the company.

The relevant details of the scheme, grant and activity under ESOS scheme are summarized below:
Note 43
As at 31 March 2023, the Company has non-current investments and non-current loans amounting to INR 274.58 million and INR 298.98 million, respectively, in its wholly owned subsidiary Artisan Spirits Private Limited (‘ASPL'). As at 31 March 2023, ASPL has accumulated losses and its net-worth has been substantially eroded. However, the net-worth of this subsidiary does not represent its true market value as the value of the entity on a going concern basis, based on valuation report of an independent valuer, is higher. Therefore, based on certain estimates like future business plans, growth prospects as well as considering the valuation report from an independent valuer, the management believes that the realizable amount of the subsidiary is higher than the carrying value of the noncurrent investments and loans due to which these are considered as good and recoverable.
Note 44
There is a disputed excise duty demand of INR 1,158.95 million (31 March 2022: INR 1,158.95 million), against which a stay has been granted. The outcome of the Company's appeal is pending. The Company has been legally advised that the demand notice is not tenable in law.
