The Company's principal financial liabilities, comprises of borrowings, trade and other payables and other financial liabilities. The
main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations The Company's principal financial assets include
trade and other receivables,cash and cash equivalent, investments and short-term deposits that derive directly from its operations.
The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: marketrisk, creditrisk andl iquidity risk. The Company's primary focus
is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial prformance.

The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. Company's financial risk activities are governed by
appropriate policies and procedures laid out by the senior management and financial risks are identified, measured and managed in
accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of
these risks, which are summarised below.

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. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its transactions in various foreign currencies. For the Company,
the market risk is the possibility of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices which may affect the value of
the Company's financial assets, liabilities or expected future cash flows as the rupee appreciates / depreciates against these foreign
currencies.

a. Commodity Risk

The principal raw materials for the Company products are lime stone, calcite powder, stearic acid, etc which are purchased by
the Company from the approved list of suppliers. Most of the input materials are procured from domestic vendors. Raw material
procurement is subject to price negotiation.

In order to mitigate the risk associated with raw material , the Company manages its procurement through grading, sourcing of raw
material and constant pricing negotiation with vendors. It renegotiates the prices with its customers in case there is more than normal
deviation in the prices of its major raw materials.

b. Foreign currency risk

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that
is not a company's functional currency. Generally, Company makes advance payment to foreign vendors and in some cases payment
is made as per credit terms with vendor. Hence, impact of the rate fluctuation is accounted in profit and loss.

Credit risk analysis

Credit risk is the risk that a 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 arising from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks, trade receivables,
investments and other financial assets. Credit risk has been managed by the company by establishing credit limits and creditworthiness
of customers to which the company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. For banks and financial institutions, only
high rated banks/ institutions are accepted.

Customer credit risk is managed by each customer group subject to the Company's established policy, procedures and control
relating to customer credit risk management. Trade Receviable has been managed by the Company by establishing credit limits and
creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.

Provision on Trade receivable is calculated as per expected credit loss method (ECL) as per IND AS. ECL is calculated on the basis of
average bad debts on turnover of 3 years i.e from 2019-20 to 2021-22. Such average % is moderated to align with current and future
business, customers and risk profile. The provision determined as per policy is less than provision existing under IGAAP. As there is
adequate provision pre-existing in the books, it is not required to make any addtional additional provision for the year. Further, it is
also proposed to continue the same till the provision under IND AS exceeds the pre-existing provision in the books.

Liquidity risk analysis

Risk assessment

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding
through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. The
Company has assets which are expected to be realised within 12 months Rs. 358.48 lakhs as on March 2025 (as on March 2024 is
Rs.406.56 lakhs). The Company has liabilities which are expected to mature within 12 months Rs. 780.47 lakhs as on March 2025 (as
on March 2024 is Rs. 865.78 lakhs). Hence Company has a working capital of Rs. (421.99 Lakhs) as on March 2025 (as on March 2024
is Rs. (459.22 Lakhs).

Risk Management

Whenever working capital is required Company's Executive Directors provides funding to the Company.

Note 38(b) Fair value hierarchy

Level 1 - Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments,
traded bonds and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments (including bonds) which are traded in
the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.

Level 2 - The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in active market (for example,counter derivatives) 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 (unobservable inputs), the instrument is
included in level 3. This is case of the unlisted equity instuments included in level 3.

All other Financial assets and liabilites are valued at amortised cost and categorised under level 3. (refer above)

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

Valuation technique used to determine fair value

The fair valuation of Borrowings is determined using the effective interest rate (net Cash infow and outflow)
