Provisions are recognised when the Company has apresent obligation (legal or constructive) as a result ofa past event, it is probable that the Company will berequired to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimatecan be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the bestestimate of the consideration required to settlethe present obligation at the end of the reportingperiod, taking into account the risks and uncertaintiessurrounding the obligation. In the event the time valueof money is material provision is carried at the presentvalue of the cash flows required to settle the obligation.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there isa possible obligation arising from past events, theexistence of which will be confirmed only by theoccurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertainfuture events not wholly within the control of theCompany or a present obligation that arises from pastevents where it is either not probable that an outflow ofresources will be required to settle the obligation or areliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. Whenthere is a possible obligation or a present obligation inrespect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources isremote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are possible assets that arises frompast events and whose existence will be confirmed onlyby the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or moreuncertain future events not wholly within the control
of the entity. A contingent asset is disclosed, where aninflow of economic benefits is probable.
Government grants are not recognised until there isreasonable assurance that the Company will complywith the conditions attaching to them and that the grantswill be received.
Government grants are recognised in the Statement ofProfit and Loss on a systematic basis over the periods inwhich the Company recognises as expenses the relatedcosts for which the grants are intended to compensate.Specifically, government grants whose primary conditionis that the Company should purchase, construct orotherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised asdeferred revenue in the balance sheet and transferredto the Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic andrational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.
The benefit of a government loan at a below-market rateof interest is treated as a government grant, measuredas the difference between proceeds received and thefair value of the loan based on prevailing market interestrates.
In the unlikely event that a grant previously recognisedis ultimately not received, it is treated as a change inestimate and the amount cumulatively recognised isexpensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognisedwhen the Company becomes a party to the contractualprovisions of the relevant instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initiallymeasured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directlyattributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assetsand financial liabilities (other than financial assets andfinancial liabilities measured at fair value through Profitand Loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value oninitial recognition of financial assets or financial liabilities.Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisitionof financial assets or financial liabilities at fair valuethrough Profit and Loss are recognised immediatelyin the Statement of Profit and Loss. However, tradereceivables that do not contain a significant financingcomponent are measured at transaction price.
Classification and subsequent measurementFinancial Assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assetsare recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis.Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or salesof financial assets that require delivery of assets within
a time frame established by regulation or conventionin the market place. All recognised financial assets aresubsequently measured at either amortised cost or fairvalue depending on their respective classification.
On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified asmeasured at -
• Amortised cost; or
• Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income(FVTOCI) ; or
• Fair Value Through Profit and Loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent totheir initial recognition, except if and in the period theCompany changes its business model for managingfinancial assets.
All financial asset not classified as measured at amortisedcost or FVTOCI are measured at FVTPL. This includes allderivative financial assets.
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequentlymeasured at amortised cost using effective interestmethod. The amortised cost is reduced by impairmentlosses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains andlosses and impairment are recognised in the Statementof Profit and Loss. Any gain and loss on derecognition isrecognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The effective interest method is a method of calculatingthe amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocatinginterest income over the relevant period. The effectiveinterest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimatedfuture cash receipts (including all fees and points paidor received that form an integral part of the effectiveinterest rate, transaction costs and other premiumsor discounts) through the expected life of the debtinstrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, tothe net carrying amount on initial recognition.
For equity investments, the Company makes anelection on an instrument-by-instrument basis todesignate equity investments as measured at FVTOCI.These elected investments are measured at fair valuewith gains and losses arising from changes in fairvalue recognised in Other Comprehensive Income andaccumulated in the reserves. The cumulative gain orloss is not reclassified to profit or loss on disposal of theinvestments. These investments in equity are not heldfor trading. Instead, they are held for medium or long¬term strategic purposes. Upon the application of IndAS 109, the Company has chosen to designate theseinvestments as at FVTOCI as the Company believesthat this provides a more meaningful presentationfor medium or long-term strategic investments, thanreflecting changes in fair value immediately in the
Statement of Profit and Loss. Dividend income receivedon such equity investments are recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
Equity investments that are not designated as measuredat FVTOCI are designated as measured at FVTPL andsubsequent changes in fair value are recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
Financial assets at FVTPL are subsequently measuredat fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interestor dividend income, are recognised in the Statement ofProfit and Loss.
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Companyare classified as either financial liabilities or as equityin accordance with the substance of the contractualarrangements and the definitions of a financial liabilityand an equity instrument.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences aresidual interest in the assets of an entity after deductingall of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by theCompany is recognised at the proceeds received, net ofdirectly attributable transaction costs.
Financial liabilities are classified as measured atamortised cost or FVTPL. A financial liability is classifiedas FVTPL if it is classified as held-for-trading or it is aderivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition.Other financial liabilities are subsequently measuredat amortised cost using the effective interest method.Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and lossesare recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Anygain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
An issued financial instrument that comprises of boththe liability and equity components are accounted ascompound financial instruments. The fair value of theliability component is separated from the compoundinstrument and the residual value is recognised asequity component of financial instrument. The liabilitycomponent is subsequently measured at amortisedcost, whereas the equity component is not remeasuredafter initial recognition. The transaction costs related tocompound instruments are allocated to the liability andequity components in the proportion to the allocationof gross proceeds. Transaction costs related to equitycomponent is recognised directly in equity and the costrelated to liability component is included in the carryingamount of the liability component and amortised usingeffective interest method.
The Company derecognises a financial asset when thecontractual rights to the cash flows from the financialasset expire, or it transfers the rights to receivethe contractual cash flows in a transaction in whichsubstantially all of the risks and rewards of ownershipof the financial asset are transferred or in which theCompany neither transfers nor retains substantially all ofthe risks and rewards of ownership and does not retaincontrol of the financial asset.
If the Company enters into transactions whereby ittransfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, butretains either all or substantially all of the risks andrewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assetsare not derecognised.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset andthe net amount presented in the balance sheet when,and only when, the Company currently has a legallyenforceable right to set off the amounts and it intendseither to settle them on a net basis or to realise the assetand settle the liability simultaneously.
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requiresthe issuer to make specified payments to reimburse theholder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor failsto make payments when due in accordance with theterms of a debt instrument.
Financial guarantee contracts and loan commitmentsissued by the Company are initially measured at theirfair values and, if not designated as at FVTPL, aresubsequently measured at the higher of:
• The amount of loss allowance determined inaccordance with impairment requirements of IndAS 109; and
• The amount initially recognised less, whenappropriate, the cumulative amount of incomerecognised in accordance with the principles of IndAS 115.
The Company applies the expected credit loss (ECL)model for recognising impairment loss on financialassets. With respect to trade receivables, the Companymeasures the loss allowance at an amount equal tolifetime expected credit losses. For all other financialinstruments, the Company recognises lifetime ECL whenthere has been a significant increase in credit risk sinceinitial recognition. If, on the other hand, the credit risk onthe financial instrument has not increased significantly
since initial recognition, the Company measures theloss allowance for that financial instrument at an amountequal to 12-month ECL. The assessment of whetherlifetime ECL should be recognised is based on significantincreases in the likelihood or risk of a default occurringsince initial recognition. 12-month ECL represents theportion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result fromdefault events on a financial instrument that are possiblewithin 12 months after the reporting date.
Loss allowances for financial assets measured atamortised cost are deducted from the gross carryingamount of the assets.
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is writtenoff (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is norealistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the casewhen the Company determines that the debtor does nothave assets or sources of income that could generatesufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject tothe write-off. However, financial assets that are writtenoff could still be subject to enforcement activities underthe Company's recovery procedures, taking into accountlegal advice where appropriate. Any recoveries madeare recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Final dividend on shares are recorded as a liability onthe date of approval by the shareholders and interimdividends are recorded as a liability on the date ofdeclaration by the Company's Board of Directors.
r) Derivative contracts:
The Company uses derivative financial instruments suchas foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rateswaps to hedge its foreign currency risks which arenot designated as hedges. All derivative contracts aremarked-to-market and losses/gains are recognised inthe Statement of Profit and Loss. Derivatives are carriedas financial assets when the fair value is positive and asfinancial liabilities when the fair value is negative.
The preparation of financial statements in conformitywith Ind AS requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assetsand liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities atthe date of the financial statements and the results ofoperations during the reporting period end. Althoughthese estimates are based upon management's bestknowledge of current events and actions, actual resultscould differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewedat the end of each reporting period. Revisions toaccounting estimates are recognised in the period inwhich the estimate is revised if the revision affects onlythat period, or in the period of the revision and future
periods if the revision affects both current and futureperiods.
The following are the key assumptions concerning thefuture, and other key sources of estimation uncertaintyat the end of the reporting period that may have asignificant risk of causing a material adjustment to thecarrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the nextfinancial year.
As described in the significant accounting policies, theCompany reviews the estimated useful lives of property,plant and equipment and intangible assets at the end ofeach reporting period. Useful lives of intangible assetsis determined on the basis of estimated benefits tobe derived from use of such intangible assets. Thesereassessments may result in change in the depreciation/amortisation expense in future periods.
Some of the Company's assets and liabilities aremeasured at fair value at each balance sheet date or atthe time they are assessed for impairment. In estimatingthe fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company usesmarket-observable data to the extent it is available.Where Level 1 inputs are not available, the Companyengages third party valuers, where required, to performthe valuation. Information about the valuation techniquesand inputs used in determining the fair value of variousassets and liabilities require estimates to be made bythe management and are disclosed in the notes to thefinancial statements.
Actuarial Valuation
The determination of Company's liability towardsdefined benefit obligation to employees is made throughindependent actuarial valuation including determinationof amounts to be recognised in the Statement of Profitand Loss and in Other Comprehensive Income. Suchvaluation depend upon assumptions determined aftertaking into account discount rate, salary growth rate,expected rate of return, mortality and attrition rate.Information about such valuation is provided in notes tothe financial statements.
The Company measures certain financial instruments atfair value at each reporting date.
Certain accounting policies and disclosures require themeasurement of fair values, for both financial and non¬financial assets and liabilities.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell anasset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transactionbetween market participants at the measurement date inthe principal or, in its absence, the most advantageousmarket to which the Company has access at thatdate. The fair value of a liability also reflects its non¬performance risk.
The best estimate of the fair value of a financialinstrument on initial recognition is normally thetransaction price i.e. the fair value of the considerationgiven or received. If the Company determines thatthe fair value on initial recognition differs from thetransaction price and the fair value is evidenced neitherby a quoted price in an active market for an identicalasset or liability nor based on a valuation techniquethat uses only data from observable markets, then thefinancial instrument is initially measured at fair value,adjusted to defer the difference between the fairvalue on initial recognition and the transaction price.Subsequently that difference is recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss on an appropriate basisover the life of the instrument but no later than whenthe valuation is wholly supported by observable marketdata or the transaction is closed out.
While measuring the fair value of an asset or liability,the Company uses observable market data as far aspossible. Fair values are categorised into different levelsin a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in thevaluation technique as follows:
• Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active marketsfor identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices includedin Level 1 that are observable for the assets orliabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly(i.e. derived from prices)
• Level 3: inputs for the assets or liabilities that are notbased on observable market data (unobservableinputs)
• Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividingthe profit or loss for the period attributable to equityshareholders by the weighted average number ofequity shares outstanding during the period.
• For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings pershare, the profit or loss for the period attributableto equity shareholders and the weighted averagenumber of shares outstanding during the periodare adjusted for the effect of all dilutive potentialequity shares.
• Diluted earnings per share adjust the figures usedin the determination of basic earnings per share totake into account: The after income tax effect ofinterest and other financing costs associated withdilutive potential equity shares, and the weightedaverage number of additional equity shares thatwould have been outstanding assuming theconversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.The dilutive effect of outstanding options isreflected in the computation of diluted earnings pershare.
• Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance sheetmajorly comprise cash in current accounts, cashon hand and short-term deposits with an originalmaturity of three months or less, which are subjectto an insignificant risk of changes in value. For thepurpose of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash andcash equivalents consist of cash in current accounts,cash on hand and short-term deposits, as definedabove, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as theyare considered an integral part of the Company'scash management.

a. Defined contribution plan
The Company makes contributions towards Provident Fund, Employee's State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) for qualifyingemployees. The Company has recognised ' 8.42 Crores (2024-25 - ' 8.04 Crores) for the year being Company'scontribution to Provident Fund and ESIC, as an expense and included in Employee Benefit Expenses in the Statement ofProfit and Loss.
b. Defined benefit planGratuity plan
Gratuity is payable to all eligible employees of the Company on separation from the service, in terms of the provisions ofthe “Gratuity Act, 1972” and employment contracts entered into by the Company. Under the gratuity plan, every employeewho has completed at least 5 years of service gets a gratuity at 15 days of last drawn salary for each completed yearof service. The Company makes an annual contribution to the group gratuity scheme administered by the insurancecompanies.
Through its gratuity plans, the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailed below:Interest risk
A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability and will decrease the return on the plan's assets.Salary risk
The present value of the Gratuity liability is calculated by reference to the estimated future salaries of plan participants. Assuch, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.
Investment risk
For funded plans that rely on insurers for managing the assets, the value of assets certified by the insurer may not be thefair value of instruments backing the liability. In such cases, the present value of the assets is independent of the futurediscount rate. This can result in wide fluctuations in the net liability or the funded status if there are significant changes inthe discount rate during the inter-valuation period.
The Government of India, vide Notification dated November 21, 2025, has notified the Code on Wages, 2019, the IndustrialRelations Code, 2020, the Code on Social Security, 2020, and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working ConditionsCode, 2020 (collectively referred to as “the Labour Codes”), which consolidate and replace existing multiple labourlegislations. In accordance with Ind AS 19 - Employee benefits, changes to employee benefit plans resulting from thenew labour codes are treated as plan amendments, requiring immediate recognition of past service cost as expensein the statement of profit and loss.

TheCompany may take appropriate steps in order to maintain, or if necessary adjust, its capital structure.
The company has formulated and implemented a policy on risk management, as approved by the Board, so as to develop anapproach to identify, assess and manage the various risks associated with our business activities in a systematic manner. Thepolicy lays down guiding principles on proactive planning for identifying, analysing and mitigating material risks, both externaland internal, and covering operational, financial and strategic risks. After risks have been identified, risk mitigation solutions aredetermined to bring risk exposure levels in line with risk appetite. The Company's risk management policies and systems arereviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and our business activities. The Company's business activities areexposed to a variety of financial risks, namely Credit risk, Liquidity risk, Currency risk, Interest rate risk and Commodity pricerisk.
The Company's size and operations result in it being exposed to the market risks that arise from its use of financial instrumentsnamely Currency risk, Interest risks and Commodity price risk. These risks may affect the Company's income and expenses, orthe value of its financial instruments. The Company's exposure to and management of these risks are explained below.
Interest rate risk results from changes in prevailing market interest rates, which can cause changes in the interest paymentsof the variable-rate instruments. Our operations are funded to a certain extent by borrowings. Our current loan facilities carryinterest at variable rates. The management is responsible for the monitoring of the Company's interest rate position. Variousvariables are considered by the management in structuring the Company's borrowings to achieve a reasonable, competitivecost of funding.
The company is exposed to the price risk associated with purchasing of the raw materials. The company typically does notenter into formal long term arrangements with our vendors. Therefore, fluctuations in the price and availability of raw materialsmay affect the Company's business and results of operations. Management reviews the commodity price risk regularly to avoidmaterial impact on profitability of the company. There are no direct commodity derivatives available to hedge the price riskassociated with the major raw material.
The Company is exposed to exchange rate risk as a significant portion of our revenues and expenditure are denominated inforeign currencies. We import certain of our raw materials, the price of which we are required to pay in foreign currency, which ismostly the U.S. Dollar or Euro. Products that we export are paid for in foreign currency, which together acts as a natural hedge.Any appreciation/depreciation in the value of the Rupee against U.S. dollar, Euro or other foreign currencies would Increase/decrease the Rupee value of debtors/ creditors. To a certain extent, the company uses foreign exchange forward contracts tominimise the risk.
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leadingto a financial loss. We are exposed to credit risk from our operating activities, primarily from trade receivables. The Company'scustomer base majorly has creditworthy counterparties which limits the credit risk. The company's exposures are continuouslymonitored and wherever necessary we take advances/LC's to minimise the risk.There is no significant concentration of creditrisk in both years.
The Company applies the simplified approach to provide for expected credit losses prescribed by Ind AS 109, which permitsthe use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables/Advances. The company has computed expected creditlosses based on a provision matrix which uses historical credit loss experience of the Company. Forward-looking information(including macroeconomic information) has been incorporated into the determination of expected credit losses. Based onsuch information the company has evaluated that there is no provision required under expected credit loss model. Further, the
In respect of other financial assets, the maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period approximates thecarrying amount of each class of financial assets.
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will encounter difficulties in meeting the obligations associated with our financial liabilities thatare settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Our approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that we have sufficientliquidity or access to funds to meet our liabilities when they are due.
The following table shows the maturity analysis of the Company's financial liabilities based on contractually agreed undiscountedcash flows along with its carrying value as at the Balance Sheet date.
The sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk because the exposure at the end of thereporting period does not reflect the exposure during the year.
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on exposure to interest rate for both long term & short termborrowings.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings which are not hedged,with all other variables held constant, the Company's profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings,as follows:
49 Offsetting of balances
The Company has not offset financial assets and financial liabilities.
50 Collaterals
The Company has borrowings which are secured by hypothecation of current assets, mortgage of immovable propertieslocated at Taloja and specified properties located at Tarapur and movable fixed assets at these locations.
51 Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value of the financial instruments is classified in various fair value hierarchies based on the following three levels:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market or Net Asset Value (“NAV”) for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted price included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. asprices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using market approach and valuationtechniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. Ifsignificant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.
Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
