A provision is recognised if
• the Company has present legal orconstructive obligation as a result of anevent in the past;
• it is probable that an outflow of resourceswill be required to settle the obligation; and
• the amount of the obligation has beenreliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the management’sbest estimate of the expenditure required tosettle the obligation at the end of the reportingperiod. If the effect of the time value ofmoney is material, provisions are discountedto reflect its present value using a currentpre-tax discount rate that reflects the currentmarket assessments of the time value ofmoney and the risks specific to the obligation.When discounting is used, the increase inthe provision due to the passage of time isrecognised as a finance cost.
If the Company has a contract that is onerous,the present obligation under the contract isrecognised and measured as a provision.
An onerous contract is a contract underwhich the unavoidable costs (i.e., the coststhat the Company cannot avoid because ithas the contract) of meeting the obligationsunder the contract exceed the economicbenefits expected to be received under it. Theunavoidable costs under a contract reflectthe least net cost of exiting from the contract,which is the lower of the cost of fulfilling it andany compensation or penalties arising fromfailure to fulfil it. The cost of fulfilling a contractcomprises the costs that relate directly to thecontract (i.e., both incremental costs and anallocation of costs directly related to contractactivities).
The Defect Liability provision (DLP) is acontractual provision that defines the periodafter construction completion during whichthe Company is responsible for rectifying any
defects at no extra cost to the client. The DLPis a contractual obligation towards failure torectify defects within the specified period.
The provision is created based on pastexperience as mentioned under criticalestimates.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed whenthere is a possible obligation arising frompast events, the existence of which will beconfirmed only by the occurrence or non¬occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents not wholly within the control of theCompany or a present obligation that arisesfrom past events where it is either not probablethat an outflow of resources will be requiredto settle the obligation or a reliable estimate ofthe amount cannot be made.
A. Short-term obligations
Liabilities for wages and salaries, includingnon-monetary benefits that are expected tobe settled wholly within 12 months after theend of the period in which the employeesrender the related service are recognisedin the same period in which the employeesrenders the related service and are measuredat the amounts expected to be paid when theliabilities are settled.
Retirement benefit in the form of providentfund is a defined contribution plan. TheCompany has no obligation , other thanthe contribution payable to the providentfund. The Company recognises contributionpayable to the provident fund scheme asan expense, when an employee renders therelated services. If the Contribution payableto the scheme for service received before thebalance sheet date exceeds the contributionalready paid, the deficit payable to the schemeis recognised as a liability after deducting thecontribution already paid. If the contributionalready paid exceeds the contribution due forservices received before the balance sheetdate, then excess is recognised as an assetto the extent that the prepayment will lead to areduction in future payment or a cash refund.
The liabilities for earned leave and sickleave are not expected to be settled whollywithin 12 months after the end of the periodin which the employees render the related
service. They are therefore measured as thepresent value of expected future paymentsto be made in respect of services providedby employees up to the end of the reportingperiod using the projected unit credit method.The benefits are discounted using the marketyields at the end of the reporting period thathave terms approximating to the terms of therelated obligation. Remeasurements as a resultof experience adjustments and changes inactuarial assumptions are recognised in thestatement of profit or loss.
The obligations are presented as currentliabilities in the balance sheet if the entitydoes not have an unconditional right to defersettlement for at least twelve months after thereporting period, regardless of when the actualsettlement is expected to occur.
The Company operates the following post¬employment schemes
(a) defined benefit plans - Gratuity
(b) defined contribution plans - Providentfund, superannuation and pension
The liability or asset recognised in the balancesheet in respect of defined benefit plansis the present value of the defined benefitobligation at the end of the reporting periodless the fair value of plan assets excludingnon-qualifying asset (reimbursement right).
The defined benefit obligation is calculatedannually by actuaries using the projectedunit credit method. The present value of thedefined benefit obligation is determined bydiscounting the estimated future cash outflowsby reference to market yields at the end ofthe reporting period on government bondsthat have terms approximating to the termsof the related obligation. The net interestcost is calculated by applying the discountrate to the net balance of the defined benefitobligation and the fair value of plan assets.
This cost is included in employee benefitexpense in the statement of profit and loss.Remeasurement gains and losses arisingfrom experience adjustments and changes inactuarial assumptions are recognised in theperiod in which they occur, directly in othercomprehensive income. They are included inretained earnings in the statement of changesin equity and in the balance sheet.
Insurance policy held by the Company frominsurers who are related parties are notqualifying insurance policies and hence theright to reimbursement is recognised as aseparate asset under other non-current and/orcurrent assets as the case may be.
Changes in the present value of the definedbenefit obligation resulting from planamendments or curtailments are recognisedimmediately in profit or loss as past servicecost.
In case of all employees, the Company paysprovident fund contributions to publiclyadministered provident funds as per localregulations. The Company has no furtherpayment obligations once the contributionshave been paid. Such contributions areaccounted for as employee benefit expensewhen they are due. Defined contribution tosuperannuation fund is being made as per thescheme of the Company. Defined contributionto Employees Pension Scheme 1995 is madeto Government Provident Fund Authoritywhereas the contributions for National PensionScheme is made to Stock Holding Corporationof India Limited.
D. Share based payment
The Company operates an equity settled,employee share based compensation plan,under which the Company receives servicesfrom employees as consideration for equityshares of the Company. Equity settled sharebased payment to employees and otherproviding similar services are measured at fairvalue of the equity instrument at grant date.
The fair value of the employee servicesreceived in exchange for the grant of theoptions is determined by reference to the fairvalue of the options as at the Grant Date and isrecognised as an ‘employee benefits expense’with a corresponding increase in equity. Thetotal expense is recognised over the vestingperiod which is the period over which theapplicable vesting condition is to be satisfied.
At the end of each year, the entity revises itsestimates of the number of options that areexpected to vest based on the service vestingconditions. It recognises the impact of therevision to original estimates, if any, in profitor loss, with a corresponding adjustment toequity.
If at any point of time after the vesting of theshare options, the right to the same expires(either by virtue of lapse of the exercise periodor the employee leaving the Company), thefair value of the options accruing in favour ofthe said employee are transferred back to theretained earnings in the reporting period inwhich the right expires.
The dilutive effect of outstanding options isreflected as additional share dilution in thecomputation of diluted earnings per share.
Operating segments are reported in a mannerconsistent with the internal reporting provided to thechief operating decision maker.
The Board of directors of the Company hasbeen identified as the Chief Operating DecisionMaker which reviews and assesses the financialperformance and makes the strategic decisions.
The company recognises a liability to pay dividendto equity holders when the distribution is authorisedand is no longer at the discretion of the Company.As per the corporate laws in India, a distribution isauthorised when it is approved by the shareholders.A corresponding amount is recognised directly inequity.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividingthe net profit or loss for the period attributableto equity shareholders by the weighted averagenumber of equity shares outstanding during theperiod. Earnings considered in ascertaining theCompany’s earnings per share is the net profit forthe period. The weighted average number equityshares outstanding during the period and allperiods presented is adjusted for events, such asbonus shares, other than the conversion of potentialequity shares that have changed the number ofequity shares outstanding, without a correspondingchange in resources. For the purpose of calculatingdiluted earnings per share, the net profit of loss forthe period attributable to equity shareholders andthe weighted average number of share outstandingduring the period is adjusted for the effects of alldilutive potential equity shares.
Exceptional items include income/expenses that areconsidered to be part of ordinary activities, howeverof such significance and nature that separate
disclosure enables the users of standalone financialstatements to understand the impact in moremeaningful manner. Exceptional Items are identifiedby virtue of their size, nature and incidence.
All amounts disclosed in the standalone financialstatements and notes have been rounded off to thenearest lakhs as per the requirement of Schedule III,unless otherwise stated.
If the Company receives information after thereporting period, but prior to the date of approvedfor issue, about conditions that existed at the endof the reporting period, it will assess whether theinformation affects the amounts that it recognisesin its separate financial statements. The Companywill adjust the amounts recognised in its financialstatements to reflect any adjusting events afterthe reporting period and update the disclosuresthat relate to those conditions in light of the newinformation. For non-adjusting events after thereporting period, the Company will not changethe amounts recognised in its separate financialstatements but will disclose the nature of the non¬adjusting event and an estimate of its financialeffect, or a statement that such an estimate cannotbe made, if applicable.
1C NEW AND AMENDED STANDARDS
The Company applied for the first-time certain standardsand amendments, which are effective for annual periodsbeginning on or after 1 April 2025. The Company has notearly adopted any standard, interpretation or amendmentthat has been issued but is not yet effective.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notifiedthe Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)Amendment Rules, 2025, which amend Ind AS21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign ExchangeRates to specify how an entity should assesswhether a currency is exchangeable and howit should determine a spot exchange rate whenexchangeability is lacking. The amendments alsorequire disclosure of information that enablesusers of its financial statements to understandhow the currency not being exchangeable into theother currency affects, or is expected to affect, theentity’s financial performance, financial position andcash flows.
The amendments are effective for annual reportingperiods beginning on or after 1 April 2025. Whenapplying the amendments, an entity cannotrestate comparative information.
The amendments do not have a material impact onthe Company’s Standalone financial statements.
(ii) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classificationof Liabilities as Current or Non-currentand Non-current Liabilities withCovenants
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendmentsto paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 to specify therequirements for classifying liabilities as current ornon-current. The amendments clarify:
• What is meant by a right to defer settlement
• That a right to defer must exist at the end of thereporting period
• That classification is unaffected by the likelihoodthat an entity will exercise its deferral right
• That only if an embedded derivative in aconvertible liability is itself an equity instrumentwould the terms of a liability not impact itsclassification
In addition, a requirement has been introduced torequire disclosure when a liability arising from aloan agreement is classified as non-current andthe entity’s right to defer settlement is contingenton compliance with future covenants within twelvemonths.
If there is a breach of a material covenant of a longterm loan arrangement on or before the end of thereporting period, resulting in the liability becomingpayable on demand as at the reporting date, andthe lender agrees—after the reporting period butbefore the financial statements are approved forissue—not to demand repayment for at least 12months as a consequence of the breach, this shallbe treated as an adjusting event. Accordingly,the entity is not required to classify the liability ascurrent.
The amendments are effective for annual reportingperiods beginning on or after 1 April 2025retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8.
(iii) Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 -Supplier Finance Arrangements
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendmentsto Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IndAS 107 Financial Instruments: Disclosures toclarify the characteristics of supplier financearrangements and require additional disclosure ofsuch arrangements. The disclosure requirementsin the amendments are intended to assist users offinancial statements in understanding the effectsof supplier finance arrangements on an entity’sliabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
As a result of implementing the amendments, theCompany has provided additional disclosures aboutits supplier finance arrangement. Please refer toNote 19.
(iv) International Tax Reform—Pillar Two
Model Rules - Amendments to Ind AS 12
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments toInd AS 12 Income Taxes in response to the OECD’sBEPS Pillar Two rules and include:
• A mandatory temporary exception to therecognition and disclosure of deferred taxesarising from the jurisdictional implementation ofthe Pillar Two model rules; and
• Disclosure requirements for affected entitiesto help users of the financial statements betterunderstand an entity’s exposure to Pillar Twoincome taxes arising from that legislation,particularly before its effective date.
The mandatory temporary exception - the useof which is required to be disclosed - appliesimmediately. The remaining disclosure requirementsapply for annual reporting periods beginning on orafter 1 April 2025, but not for any interim periodsending on or before 31 March 2026.
The amendments had no impact on the Company’sStandalone financial statements as the Company isnot in scope of the Pillar Two model rules.
STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YETEFFECTIVE
Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification ofLiabilities as Current or Non-current and Non¬current Liabilities with Covenants and Ind AS 10Events after the Reporting Period
Ind AS 10 has been amended to remove theprevious treatment under which a lender’s postreporting date waiver—granted before the financialstatements were approved for issue—of a breach ofa material covenant in a long term loan arrangementthat occurred on or before the end of the reportingperiod, resulting in the liability becoming payableon demand at the reporting date, was regarded asan adjusting event.
For annual reporting periods beginning on or after1 April 2026, any breach of a covenant—whethermaterial or immaterial—occurring on or beforethe reporting date will, in accordance with IndAS 1, require the related liability to be classified ascurrent, unless the lender has granted a waiver ofthe breach on or before the reporting date and hasagreed not to demand repayment for at least 12
months after the reporting date as a consequenceof the breach. Such a waiver shall be treated as anadjusting event.
The amendments are effective for annual reportingperiods beginning on or after 1 April 2026retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8.
The amendment has no impact on the Company’sstandalone financial statements.
1D SUMMARY OF CRITICAL ESTIMATES,JUDGEMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of standalone financial statementsrequires the use of accounting estimates which, bydefinition, will seldom equal the actual results. Themanagement also needs to exercise judgment inapplying the Company’s accounting policies. This noteprovides an overview of the areas that involved a higherdegree of judgment or complexity, and of items whichare more likely to be materially adjusted due to estimatesand assumptions turning out to be different than thoseoriginally assessed. Detailed information about each ofthese estimates and judgments is included below.
1 Defect liability provision
Defect Liability Provisions (DLP) representcontractual obligation of the Company to rectifyany defects or faults that may arise during thespecified defect liability period after completion of aconstruction project. Provision made at the year-endrepresents the amount of expected cost of meetingsuch obligations based on the historical claims aswell as expected future trends. Provision towardsDLP is disclosed in Note 21B.
2 Impairment allowance for tradereceivables
The impairment provisions for trade receivablesare based on assumptions about risk of defaultand expected loss rates. The Company usesjudgement in making these assumptions andselecting the inputs to the impairment calculation,based on Company’s ageing of receivables, creditrisk, project status, past history, existing marketconditions as well as forward looking estimatesat the end of each reporting period. Further,in case of operationally closed projects andprojects under litigation, Company makes specificassessment of the receivables by considering thecustomer’s historical payment patterns and latestcorrespondences with the customers for recoveryof the amounts outstanding. Accordingly, a bestjudgment estimate is made to record the impairmentallowance in respect of such projects.
3 Project revenue and costs
Recognition of revenue in respect of constructioncontracts involves determination of percentagecompletion of the project. The contract revenue ismeasured based on the proportion of contract costsincurred for work performed till date relative to theestimated total contract costs. This method requiresthe Company to perform an initial assessmentof total estimated cost, compare with actualcost incurred and reassess the total estimatedcost for completion of contract at each reportingperiod to determine the appropriate percentageof completion. The estimation involves exerciseof significant judgement by the management inmaking forecasts of future cost to complete thecontract considering future activities to be carriedout in the contract, which includes determinationand assessment of probability related to contractrisk contingencies, cost savings or additional costs,defect liability period costs, adjustments to contractrevenue on account of penalties for breach ofcontract, liquidated damages and consequentialprovision for foreseeable losses on onerousperformance obligations, if any, after consideringspecific circumstances of each contract.
4 Fair value measurement
When the fair values of financial assets andfinancial liabilities recorded in the balance sheetcannot be measured based on quoted prices inactive markets, their fair value is measured usingappropriate valuation techniques. The inputs forthese valuations are taken from observable sourceswhere possible, but where this is not feasible, adegree of judgement is required in establishingfair values. Judgements include considerations ofvarious inputs including liquidity risk, credit risk,volatility etc. Changes in assumptions/judgementsabout these factors could affect the reported fairvalue of financial instruments. Refer Note 35 ofstandalone financial statements for the fair valuedisclosures and related sensitivity.
5 Employee benefits
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity planand other post-employment leave benefits aredetermined using actuarial valuations. An actuarialvaluation involves making various assumptions thatmay differ from actual developments in the future.These include the determination of the discountrate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Dueto the complexities involved in the valuation andits long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation ishighly sensitive to changes in these assumptions.
All assumptions are reviewed at each reportingdate. The mortality rate is based on publiclyavailable mortality tables. Those mortality tablestend to change only at interval in response todemographic changes. Future salary increases arebased on expected future inflation rates. Refer Note21 and Note 34(a, b)
Estimates are required to determine the appropriatediscount rate used to measure lease liabilities. TheCompany cannot readily determine the interest rateimplicit in the lease, therefore, it uses its incrementalborrowing rate (IBR) to measure lease liabilities. TheIBR is the rate of interest that the Company wouldhave to pay to borrow over a similar term, and witha similar security, the funds necessary to obtain anasset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset ina similar economic environment. The IBR thereforereflects what the Company ‘would have to pay’,which requires estimation when no observable ratesare available or when they need to be adjustedto reflect the terms and conditions of the lease.
The Company estimates the IBR using observableinputs (such as market interest rates, bank ratesto the Company for a loan of a similar tenure, etc).The Company has applied a single discount rateto a portfolio of leases of similar assets in similareconomic environment with a similar end date
Estimating fair value for share-based paymenttransactions requires determination of the mostappropriate valuation model, which is dependent onthe terms and conditions of the grant. This estimatealso requires determination of the most appropriateinputs to the
valuation model including the expected life ofthe share option, volatility and dividend yieldand making assumptions about them. Further, inrespect of performance linked ESOPs, for whichperformance criteria is not communicated andaccordingly grant date is not yet determined, thefair value of such ESOPs is determined at eachbalance sheet date.
In the normal course of business, contingentliabilities may arise from litigation and other claimsagainst the Company. Potential liabilities that arepossible but not probable of crystalising or are verydifficult to quantify reliably are treated as contingentliabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notesbut are not recognised. The cases which have beendetermined as remote by the Company are notdisclosed.
Contingent assets are neither recognised nordisclosed in the financial statements unless whenan inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Management reviews the useful lives of property,plant and equipment at least once a year. Suchlives are dependent upon an assessment of boththe technical lives of the assets and also theirlikely economic lives based on various internal andexternal factors including relative efficiency andoperating costs. This reassessment may result inchange in depreciation and amortisation expectedin future periods.
Retained earnings are the profits that the Company has earned till date, less any transfers to general reserve, dividends orother distributions paid to shareholders. Retained earnings includes re-measurement loss / (gain) on defined benefit plans,net of taxes that will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit and Loss. Retained earnings is a free reserve available to theCompany.
Reserve is primarily created on business combination as per statutory requirement. This reserve is utilised in accordancewith the specific provisions of the Companies Act 2013.
Securities Premium Reserve is used to record the premium on issue of shares and is utilised in accordance with theprovisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
The Company uses hedging instrument to manage its commodity price risk with respect to forecast purchase ofaluminium. To the extent these hedges are effective, the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument is recognised inthe effective portion of cash flow hedges. Amounts recognised in the effective portion of cash flow hedges is reclassifiedto the Statement of profit & loss when the hedged item affects the Profit and Loss.
Note 16: Other Equity (contd..)
Share options outstanding account
The share options-based payment reserve is used to recognise the grant date fair value of options issued to employeesunder Employee stock option plan. The amounts recognised in this reserve are transferred to Securities Premium whenOptions are exercised by the employees or to retained earnings when they expire unexercised.
Note 32 : Exceptional Items
The Government of India notified the four labour codes namely Code on Social Security, 2020 (“Social Security Code”);Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020; Industrial Relations Code, 2020 and Code on Wages, 2019(collectively, the “Labour Codes”) on November 21, 2025 consolidating 29 erstwhile labour laws. Subsequently, the Ministry ofLabour & Employment published Central Rules and FAQs to enable assessment of the financial impact due to Labour Codes.The Company has evaluated the impact of increased employee benefits obligations arising from the implementation of theLabour Codes based on it’s best judgment in consultation with external experts. Accordingly, the Company has recogniseda financial impact of ' 772.06 lakhs on account of increased gratuity and leave encashment obligations, recognised inaccordance with Ind AS 19 - ‘Employee Benefits’ and disclosed it as an Exceptional Item in the standalone financial statements.The Company continues to monitor the issuance of State rules and further clarifications from the Government in respect ofother aspects of the Labour codes. Any additional impact arising from such developments will be assessed and appropiatelyaccounted for in the Standalone Financial Statements as and when such rules are notified or clarifications are issued.
Note 35: Fair value measurements (contd..)
Level 1- It includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. For the Company, the fair valuations in this level ofhierarchy include listed equity instruments and mutual funds. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in thestock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period and mutual funds are valued using closing NAV asat the reporting period.
Level 2- The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example derivatives) is determinedusing valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specificestimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2. Thefair valuations in this level of hierarchy for the Company mainly include derivatives.
Level 3- The instrument is included in Level 3 if one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data.Fair value is determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by pricesfrom observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data. This includesinvestment in unquoted preference shares. Similarly, unquoted equity instruments where most recent information to measurefair value is insufficient, or if there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements, net asset value has been considered asbest estimate of fair value which is approximate to cost.
There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year.
Note 36: Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company’s principal financial liabilities comprises of trade payables, borrowings, lease liabilities and other financialliabilities. The Company’s principal financial assets include trade receivables, derivative assets, cash and cash equivalents,other bank balances and other financial assets that are derived directly from the operations. The Company’s risk managementis carried out by the management under the policies approved of the Board of Directors that help in identfication, measurement,mitigation and reporting all risk associated with the activities of the Company. The Board of Directors reviews and agreespolicies for managing each of these risks, which are summaried below:
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, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactionsand other financial instruments. The Company only deals with parties which has good credit rating/ worthiness given byexternal rating agencies or based on Company’s internal assessment.
Trade and other receivables of the Company are typically unsecured and credit risk is managed through credit approvalsand periodical monitoring of the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms.
The Company undertake projects for government institutions (including local bodies) and private institutional customers.The credit concentration is more towards government institutions. These projects are normally of long term duration of twoto three years. Such projects normally are regular tender business with the terms and conditions agreed as per the tender.These projects are generally fully funded by the Government of India through Rural Electrification Corporation, PowerFinance Corporation, and Asian Development Bank etc. The Company enters into such projects after careful considerationof strategy, terms of payment, past experience etc.
In case of private institutional customers, before tendering for the projects Company evaluate the creditworthiness,general feedback about the customer in the market, past experience, if any with customer, and accordingly negotiates theterms and conditions with the customer.
For trade receivables and contract assets, as a practical expedient, the Company computes credit loss allowance basedon a provision matrix. The provision matrix is prepared based on historically observed default rates over the expected lifeof trade receivables and contract assets and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates.
The Company maintains its cash and bank balances with creditworthy banks and financial institutions and reviews it on anon-going basis. Moreover, the interest-bearing deposits are with banks and financial institutions of reputation, good pasttrack record and high-quality credit rating. Hence, the credit risk is assessed to be low. The maximum exposure to creditrisk as at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 is the carrying value of such cash and cash equivalents and deposits withbanks as shown in Note 7, 11A and 12 of the financials.
The Company has a central treasury department, which is responsible for maintaining adequate liquidity in the system tofund business growth, capital expenditures, as also ensure the repayment of financial liabilities. The department obtainsbusiness plans from business units including the capex budget, which is then consolidated and borrowing requirementsare ascertained in terms of long term funds and short-term funds. Considering the peculiar nature of EPC business, whichis very working capital intensive, treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed creditlines in the form of fund based and non-fund based (Letter of Credit and Bank Guarantee) limits.
The limits sanctioned and utilised are then monitored monthly, fortnightly and daily basis to ensure that mismatchesin cash flows are taken care of, all operational and financial commitments are honoured on time and there is propermovement of funds between the banks from cashflow and interest arbitrage perspective.
Market risk refers to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changesin market prices. It comprises three main components: currency risk, interest rate risk, and other price risks such ascommodity price risk.
The Company aims to minimise the impact of currency and commodity price risks through the use of derivative financialinstruments. These instruments are used in accordance with the Company’s Risk Management Policies, which areapproved by the Board of Directors. These policies provide written guidelines for the use of financial derivatives to hedgecurrency and commodity risks. The Company does not engage in derivative trading for speculative purposes.
The Company is primarily exposed to financial risks arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates andcommodity prices. To manage these exposures, the Company enters into various derivative financial instruments,including:
- foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the exchange rate risk arising from USD-linked purchase contracts
- Commodity Over the Counter (OTC) derivative contracts to hedge the price risk for base metal such as Aluminium.
The Company’s functional currency is Indian Rupees (INR). The Company operates in the global market and istherefore exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to theUS Dollar (‘USD’), Kenyan Shillings (‘KES’), Zambian Kwacha (‘ZMW’) and West African CFA Franc (‘XOF’). Volatilityin exchange rates also affects the cost of raw materials, primarily in relation to USD linked purchase contracts.
The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period expressed in INR, are asfollows :
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because ofchanges in market interest rates. In case of short term borrowings, the interest rate is fixed in a large number ofcases. Hence, interest rate risk is assessed to be low. Accordingly, the sensitivity / exposure to change in interest rateis insignificant.
The Company undertakes turnkey EPC projects, which involve procuring equipment and materials often linked tocommodity prices such as steel, copper, aluminium, and zinc. This exposes the Company to commodity price risk.
To mitigate these risks, the Company employs several strategies:
- Contractual arrangements such as variable price purchase orders, where hedging may be performed byvendors;
- Direct hedging of base metal exposure (e.g., aluminium) using OTC derivative contracts linked to London MetalExchange (LME) prices.
Hedging commodity is based on procurement schedule and price risk. Commodity is undertaken as a risk offsettingexercise and depending upon market conditions, hedges may extend beyond the financial year.
The Company has a well defined hedging policy approved by Board of Directors of the Company, which partially takescare of the commodity price fluctuations and minimizes the risk. The Company enters into both commodity contracts andforeign currency forwards to hedge the commodity price risk.
Note 37: Capital Management
The Board policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustainfuture development of the business. The Board of directors monitors the return on capital employed. The Company managescapital risk by maintaining sound / optimal capital stucture through monitoring of financial ratios on a monthly basis andimplements capital structure improvement plan when necessary. The Company uses debt ratio as a capital management indexand calculates the ratio as Net debt divided by total equity. Net debt and total equity are based on the amounts stated in thefinancial statements.
Debt ratio of the Company as on the balance sheet date is shown in table below :-

Note 42: Disclosures of revenue from contracts with customers
The disclosures as required for revenue from contracts with customers are as given below(i) Disaggregation of revenue
Disaggregation of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers and reconciliation of amount of revenuerecognised in the statement of profit and loss with the contracted price is as given below.

Upon achievement and acceptance of milestones mentioned by the customer, theamounts recognised as contract assets are reclassified to trade receivables.
Contract liabilities are related to payments received in advance of performance under the contract and billing in excess ofcontract revenue recognised. Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company satisfies the performanceobligation under the contract.
Information about the Company’s performance obligations is summarised below:
The performance obligations is the supply of materials and erection services. The supply of materials and erectionservices are promised goods and services which are not individually distinct. Hence both of them are counted as asingle performance obligation under the contract. The satisfaction of this performance obligation happens over time, asthe performance or enhancement of the obligation is controlled by the customer. Also, the performance of the obligationcreates an asset without any alternative use to the customer. The Company uses the input method to determine theprogress of the satisfaction of the performance obligation and accordingly recognises revenue.
The standalone selling price of the performance obligation is determined after taking the variable consideration andsignificant financing component .
The aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as at the end ofreporting period March 31, 2026 is ' 3,44,181.54 lakhs (as at year ended March 31, 2025, ' 2,98,440.96 lakhs). On anaverage, transmission & distribution contracts have a life cycle of 18-30 months. Management expects that around 60%to 70% of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied contracts as of March 31, 2026 will be recognised as revenueduring the next reporting period depending upon the progress on each contract. The remaining amount is expected to berecognised in subsequent years, largely in year 2. The amount disclosed above does not include variable consideration.
