Financial Assets

A. Initial recognition and measurement

All financial assets and liablities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction
cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and

the fair value on initial recognition. Purchase and sale of financial assets are
recognised using trade date accounting.

B. Subsequent measurement

i. Financial asset carried at ammortised cost

A financial asset is measured at ammortised cost if it is held within a business
model whose objective is to hold the assset in order to collect contractual cash
flows and the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates
to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and interest on the principal
outstanding.

ii. Financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model
whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cashflows and selling
financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on a

method. For trade and other payable maturing within one year from the balance
sheet date, the carrying amount approximate fair value due to the short maturity
of these instruments.

Derivative financial instrument and Hedge Accounting

Derivate financial instrument are initially recognised at fair value on the date on
which derivative contract is entered into and are also susequently measured at
fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive
and as financial liablities when the value is negative.

Any gain or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken
directly to the Statement of Profit and Loss, except for the effective portion of
cash flow hedge which is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and later
to Statement of Profit and Loss when the hedged items affects profit or loss or
treated as basis adjustments if a hedged forecast transactions subsequently

measurement of financial instruments, estimates of useful lives and residual value
of Property, Plant and equipment and intangible assets, valuation of Inventories,
measurements of employee benefits, actuarial assumptions, provisions etc.

accounting estimates are recognized prospectively in the Statement of Profit and
Loss in the period in which the estimate are revised and in any future periods

32. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES ( IND AS 107)

The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprises of borrowings,
trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the
company’s operations. The company’s principal financial assets, other than derivatives include
trade and other receivables, investments and cash and cash equivalentas that derive directly
from its operations.

The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. Company’s
overall risk management focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to
minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the company. The company
uses derivative financial instruments, such as foregin exchange forward contracts, to hedge
foreign currency risk exposure. Derivatives are used exclusively for hedging purposes and
not as trading or speculative instruments.

The Company has standard operating procedures and investment policy for deployment of
surplus liquidity, which allows investment in debt securities and mutual fund schemes of
debt categories only and restricts the exposure in equity markets.

Compliances of these policies and principles are reviewed by internal auditors on periodicals basis.

The Corporate Treasury team updates the Audit Committee on a quaterly basis about the
implemention of the above policies. It also updates to the Internal Risk Management Committee
of Company on periodcal basis about the various risk to the business and status of various

activities planned to mitigate the risk

A. Market Risk Management:

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may
result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument
may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates,
commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive
instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk senstive financial instruments including
investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and borrowings.

1) Foreign Currency Risk:

Foreign currency risk is the risk of impact related to fair value or future cash flows of an
exposure in foreign currency, which fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The
Company’s exposure to risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to import
of raw materials, spare parts, capital expenditure & Exports of finished goods.

When a derivative is entered for the purpose of being a hedge, the Company negotiates the
terms of those derivatives to match the terms of the hedge exposure.

The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions.
The Company follows established risk management policies and standard operating
procedures. It uses derivative instruments like foreign currency forwards to hedge exposure
to foreign currency risk.

2) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial istrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to risk of
changes in market interest rates primarily to the Company’s short-term borrowing. The
Company constantly monitors the credit markets and rebalances its financing strategies to
achive an optimal maturity profile and financing cost. since all the borrowings are on floating
rate, no significant risk of change in interest rate.

3) Commodity price risk

Commodity price risk for the Company is mainly related to fluctuations of raw materials
prices linked to various external factors,which can affect the production cost of the Company
actively manages inventory and in many cases sale prices are liked to major raw material
prices. Energy costs is also one of the primary costs drivers, any fluctuation in fuel prices
can lead to drop in operating margin. To manage this risk, the Company enters into long¬
term supply agreement for power, identifying new sources of supply etc. Additionally,
processes and policies related to such risks are reviewed and managed by senior
management on continuous basis.

B. Credit Risk Management:

Credit risk arises when a customer or counter party does 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 receivebles) and from its financing/
investing activities, including deposits with banks, mutual fund investments, and investments
in debt securities, foreign exchange transactions and financial guarantees. The Company
has three major clients which represents 80% receivables as on 31st March, 2023 and
company is receiving payments from these parties within due dates. Hence, the company
has no significant credit risk related to these parties.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are consisting of a large number of customers. The Company has credit
evaluation policy for each customer and based on the evaluation credit limit of each customer
is defined. Wherever the company assesses the credit risk as high the exposure is backed
by either letter of credit or security deposits.

As per simplified approach, the Company makes provision of expected credit losses on
trade receivables using a provision matrix to mitigate the risk of default payments and makes
appropriate provision at each reporting date wherever outstanding is for longer period and
involves higher risk.

Investments, Derivative Instruments, Cash and Cash Equivalent and Bank Deposit

Credit Risk on cash and cash equivalent, deposits with the banks/ financial institutions is
generally low as the said deposits have been made with the banks/ financial institutions who

have been assigned high credit rating by international and domestic rating agencies.

Credit Risk on Derivative Instruments are generally low as Company enters into the Derivative
Contracts with the reputed banks and Financial Institutions.

Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved Financial Institutions/Counterparty.
Investments primarily include investment in units of mutual funds. These Mutual Funds and
Counterparties have low credit risk

Total current investments as on 31st March, 2024 is Rs.100 Lacs (31st March, 2023- Nil.)

C. Liquidity Risk Management:

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not able to settle or meet its
obligations on time or at reasonable price. Prudent liquidity risk management implies
maintaining sufficent cash and marketable securities and the availability of fund through
an adequate amount of credit facilities to meet obligations when due. The company’s
treasury team 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 liquidity position through rolling
forecasts based on expected cash flows.

#Considering nature of financial assets and financial liabilities, fair value is same as amortised
cost.

(B) - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (IND AS 113):

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in
a forced or liquidation sale.

The Company has established the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the values
into 3 levels. The inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value of financial
instruments are:

Level 1: This hierarchy uses quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities. The fair value of all bonds which are trade in the stock exchanges is valued
using the closing price or dealer quotation as at reporting date.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in as active market ( For
example trade bonds, over the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques
which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as posible on company
specific estimates. The mutual fund units are valued using the closing Net Asset Value. 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, the
instrument is included in Level 3.

constructive) as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources
embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

#Considering nature of financial assets and financial liabilities, fair value is same as amortised
cost.

(B) - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (IND AS 113):

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in
a forced or liquidation sale.

The Company has established the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the values
into 3 levels. The inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value of financial
instruments are:

Level 1: This hierarchy uses quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities. The fair value of all bonds which are trade in the stock exchanges is valued
using the closing price or dealer quotation as at reporting date.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in as active market ( For
example trade bonds, over the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques
which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as posible on company
specific estimates. The mutual fund units are valued using the closing Net Asset Value. 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, the
instrument is included in Level 3.

The management assessed that fair value of cash and bank balances, trade receivables,
trade paybles, cash credits, commercial papers and other financial assets and liabilities
approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short- term maturities of these
instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values.

(a) The fair values of the quoated investments/units of mutual fund schemes are based
on market price/ net asset value at the reporting date.

(b) The fair values of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present
value determined using forward exchange rates and interest rate curve of the respective
currencies.

(c) The fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using discounted
cash flow analysis or based on the contractual terms. The discount rates used is
based on management estimates.

Proposed dividendes on equity shares are subject to approval at the annual general meeting
and are not recognized as a liability as at 31st March 2024.

(B) - CAPITAL MANAGEMENT (IND As 1):

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to (a) maximise shareholder value
and provide benefits to other stakeholders and (b) maintain an optimal capital structure to
reduce the cost of capital.

equity.
