n) Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and Commitments

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it
is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount
of the obligation.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at
the end of the financial year, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligations. When a provision
is measured using the cash flow estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present obligations
of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party,
a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the
receivable can be measured reliably.

A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but
probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of
which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no disclosure is made.

Contingent Assets are not recognised but disclosed in the Financial Statements when economic inflow is probable.

o) Revenue Recognition
Sale of Goods

The Company earns revenue primarily from sale of manufactured ice-creams. It has applied the principles laid down in
Ind AS 115 and determined that there is no change required in the existing revenue recognition methodology. In case of
sale to domestic customers, most of the sale is made on ex-factory basis and revenue is recognised when the goods are
dispatched from the factory gates. In case of export sales, revenue is recognised on shipment date or goods are made
available to customer.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of returns and allowances, trade
discounts and volume rebates, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment excluding taxes or duties
collected on behalf of the government.

Assets and liabilities arising from rights to return
Right to return assets

A return right gives an entity a contractual right to recover the goods from a customer (return asset), if the customer
exercises its option to return the goods and obtain a refund. The asset is measured at the former carrying amount of the
inventory, less any expected costs to recover the goods, including any potential decreases in the value of the returned
goods.

Refund liabilities

A refund liability is the obligation to refund some or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer. The
Company has therefore recognized refund liabilities in respect of customer's right to return. The liability is measured at the
amount the Company ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer. The Company updates its estimate of refund
liabilities (and the corresponding change in the transaction price) at the end of each reporting period.

Interest Income

Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefit will flow to the Company
and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal
outstanding and the interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to that asset's net carrying amount on initial recognition.

p) Government Grant

Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the
conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.

Government grants are recognized in profit and loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company
recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate.

Export incentives under various schemes notified by government are accounted for in the year of exports based on
eligibility and when there is no uncertainty in receiving the same.

q) Employee Benefits

Employee benefits include provident fund, employee state insurance scheme, gratuity fund and compensated absences.
Defined Contribution Plan:

The Company's contribution to Provident Fund is considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an expense
based on the amount of contribution required to be made and when services are rendered by the employees.

Defined Benefit Plans:

For defined benefit plans in the form of gratuity fund, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected
Unit Credit method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Remeasurement, comprising
actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the return on plan assets (excluding net interest), is reflected
immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the financial year
in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained
earnings and is not reclassified to in the statement of profit and loss. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount
rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset.

The Company recognizes the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of
profit and loss:

1) Service costs comprising current service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and settlements; and

2) Net interest expense or income

The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the Balance Sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit
obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past service cost, as reduced by the fair value of scheme assets. Any asset resulting
from this calculation is limited to past service cost, plus the present value of available refunds and reductions in future
contributions to the schemes.

Short-term and Long-term Employee Benefits:

A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave in
the period the related services rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for
that service.

Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits
expected to be paid in exchange of the related service.

Liabilities recognised in respect of long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future
cash outflows expected to be made by the company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.

r) Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs include interest costs in relation to financial liabilities, amortization of ancillary costs incurred in connection
with the arrangement of borrowings, interest on lease liabilities which represents unwinding of the discount rate applied
to lease liabilities and other borrowing cost.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets
that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those
assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Interest income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying
assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they are incurred.

s) Foreign Currencies

In preparing the financial statements of the Company, the transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional
currency (INR) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each financial
year, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate prevailing at that date and differences
are recognised in statement of profit and loss account. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in
foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date when fair value was determined. Non-monetary items
that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Exchange differences arising on monetary items are recognized in the statement of profit and loss in the year in which they
arise.

t) Taxation

Tax expense represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.

Current Tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be
paid to the tax authorities, based on estimated tax liability computed after taking credit for allowances and exemption
in accordance with the local tax laws. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the end of the financial year.

Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally
recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary
differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises
from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting
profit.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each financial year and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability
is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the financial year.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner
in which the Company expects, at the end of the financial year, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and
liabilities.

In accordance with Ind-AS 12, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only when the entity has a legally
enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to
realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and Deferred Tax for the Year

Current and deferred tax are recognized in the statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are
recognized in other comprehensive income, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other
comprehensive income.

u) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit / (loss) for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the
weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The company did not have any potential dilutive
securities in any period presented.

v) Recent accounting pronouncements

The 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. For the year ended on March 31,2025, MCA has notified
Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind AS 116 - Leases, relating to sale and leaseback transactions and
are effective from April 1,2024. The Company has assessed these amendments and determined that they do not have any
significant impact on its financial statements.

On May 7, 2025, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) issued the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment
Rules, 2025, which introduced amendment to Ind AS 21 "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates", as summarized
below :

The amendment to Ind AS 21 provides specific guidance for evaluating whether a currency is exchangeable and guidance
for determining the spot exchange rate when exchangeability is not available. The amendment is with respect to the
circumstances where a currency cannot be freely exchanged in the open market. The amendment also introduces new
disclosure requirements relating to the financial implications, estimation methods, and associated risks.

These changes will be applicable for financial periods beginning on or after April 1,2025.

b) Nature and Purpose of Reserve

Capital Reserve : The company has created capital reserve out of investment utilization reserve written back and forfeited shares.

Securities Premium Reserve The amount received in excess of face value of the equity shares is recognised in Securities Premium
Reserve. This reserve is available for utilization in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013. In case of equity-
settled share based payment transactions, the difference between fair value on grant date and nominal value of share is accounted
as securities premium reserve.

Revaluation Reserve The company has created revaluation reserve out of revaluation of land carried out as at April 1,2016.

General Reserve The general reserve is used from time to time to transfer profits from retained earnings for appropriation purposes.
As the general reserve is created by a transfer from one component of equity to another and is not an item of other comprehensive
income, items included in the general reserve will not be reclassified subsequently to profit and loss.

Retained Earnings Retained earnings are the profits that the Company has earned till date, less any transfers to general reserve,
dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.

NOTE - 43 Segment Information :

The Company is primarily engaged in one business segment namely Food segment as determined by the Chief Operating Decision
Maker in accordance with IND AS 108 - "Operating Segment".

NOTE - 45 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
I Capital Management

The Company manages its capital so as to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to optimise returns to stakeholder.
The Capital structure of the company is based on management's judgment of its strategic and day-to-day needs with a focus on
total equity to maintain investor, creditors and market confidence and to sustain future development and growth of its business.

The management and the Board of Directors monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to shareholders. The
company may take appropriate steps in order to maintain, or if necessary adjust, its capital structure.

The capital structure of the Company consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in notes 19 and 25 off set by cash and bank
balances) and total equity of the Company.

(ii) Price Risk (Equity Price Risk)

The Company's exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the Company and classified in the
balance sheet at fair value through profit and loss. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities,
the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the
Company.

Sensitivity Analysis

The table below summarizes the impact of increases / decreases of the BSE index on the Company's equity and Gain /
Loss for the period. The analysis is based on the assumption that the index has increased by 5 % or decreased by 5 % with
all other variables held constant, and that all the Company's equity instruments moved in line with the index.

(iii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Company's position with regards to interest income and interest
expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, treasury or management performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate
risk management by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.

According to the Company interest rate risk exposure is only for floating rate borrowings. For floating rate liabilities,
the analysis is prepared assuming that the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was
outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to
key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.

Interest rate swap contracts

Under interest rate swap contracts, the Company agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and floating rate
interest amounts calculated on agreed principal amounts. Such contracts enable the Company to mitigate the risk of
changing interest rates on the cash flow exposures on the variable rate loan. The following tables detail the principal
amounts and remaining terms of interest rate swap contracts outstanding at the end of the reporting period. Interest
rate swap contracts exchanging floating rate interest amounts for fixed rate interest amounts are designated as cash flow
hedges in order to reduce the Company's cash flow exposure resulting from variable interest rates on borrowings. The
interest rate swaps and the interest payments on the loan occur simultaneously and the amount accumulated in equity
is reclassified to profit or loss over the period that the floating rate interest payments on debt affect profit or loss.

The line items in the balance sheet that include the above hedging instruments are other financial liabilities. Debit Balance
in cash flow hedge reserve of ? 0.75 Crore as at March 31,2025 (balance of ? 1.37 Crore as at March 31,2024) on interest rate
swap derivative contracts has been recognised in other comprehensive income.

A change of 100 basis points in interest rate with all other variables held constant would result in increase / (decrease) in
equity by ? 0.23 Crore (P.Y. : ? 0.28 Crore) (net of tax)

B. Management of Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counter party may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage
this, the Company periodically assesses financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current
economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limits are set
accordingly.

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 ongoing basis through out each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase
in credit risk, the company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as
at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information such as:

i) Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business,

ii) Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty,

iii) Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the counterparty's ability to meet its
obligations,

iv) Significant increase in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same counterparty,

v) Significant changes in the value of the collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of the third-party guarantees
or credit enhancements.

The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables and loan from individual customers based on historical
trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss
experience and past trends. Based on the historical data, loss on collection of receivable is not material hence no additional
provision considered.

Concentrations of Credit risk form part of Credit risk

Considering that the Company sells majority of its goods to Vadilal Enterprises Ltd. and Vadilal Industries (USA) Inc., the
Company is significantly dependent on such customers. Out of total income, the Company earns 92.59 % revenue (previous
year 92.64 %) from such customers, and with one of these customers, the Company has long term contracts. As at March
31,2025, receivables from such customers constitute 90.49 % (previous year 84.06 %) of total trade receivables. Both Vadilal
Enterprises Ltd. and Vadilal Industries (USA) Inc. have consistently demonstrated reliability in their payment practices, with
all transactions being settled within the stipulated due dates. Consequently, there is no credit risk associated with these
customers. Their regular and timely payments ensure a stable and predictable cash flow, reinforcing the Company's financial
security. However, if any of these customers were lost, it could adversely affect the operating result or cash flow of the
Company.

C. Management of Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will face in meeting its obligation associated with its financial liabilities. The
Company's approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when they are
due without incurring unacceptable losses. In doing this management considers both normal and stressed conditions.
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has established an appropriate
liquidity risk management framework for the management of the company's short-term, medium-term and long term funding
and liquidity management requirements. The company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking
facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the
maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The following table shows the maturity analysis of the company's financial liabilities based on the contractually agreed
undiscounted cash flows along with its carrying value as at the Balance sheet date.

NOTE - 48 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

I Post Employment Benefit Plans as per Indian Accounting Standard 19:

Defined Contribution Plan:

The company makes provident fund (PF) contributions to defined contribution benefit plans for eligible employees. Under the
scheme the company is required to contribute a specified percentage of the payroll costs to fund the benefits. The contributions
specified under the law are paid to the government authorities (PF commissioner).

Amount towards Defined Contribution Plan have been recognized under "Contribution to Provident and Other funds" in Note 37 ?
2.46 Crore (Previous Year: ? 2.19 Crore).

Defined Benefit Plan:

The Company has defined benefit plans for gratuity to eligible employees, contributions for which are made to Life Insurance
Corporation of India, who invests the funds as per IRDA guidelines. The details of these defined benefit plans recognised in the
financial statements are as under:

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the Following Risks:

Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability requiring
higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the duration of
asset.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members As
such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan's liability.

Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by
reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it
will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities, and
other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule
101 of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have
any longevity risk.

Concentration Risk: Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will
wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

Note :

1) Increase in Current Ratio is due to increase in inventories and trade receivables.

2) Decrease in Debt Equity Ratio is due to decrease in total debt on account of payment of borrowings.

3) Increase in Debt Service coverage ratio is due to decrease in borrowings.

4) Decrease in Trade Receivable Turnover Ratio is due to increase in trade receivable.

5) Decrease in Net Capital Turnover ratio is mainly due to increase in working capital.

6) Increase in Return on Investment is due to variations in Market Price.
