Risk management policies and systems are reviewedregularly to reflect changes in market conditions and theCompany's activities.
Credit risk is the risk of incurring a loss that may arise froma borrower or debtor failing to make required payments.Credit risk arises mainly from outstanding receivables fromfree market dealers, cash and cash equivalents, employeeadvances and security deposits. The Company managesand analyses the credit risk for each of its new clientsbefore standard payment and delivery terms and conditionsare offered.
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainlyby the individual characteristics of each customer. Thedemographics of the customer and including the defaultrisk of the industry, also has an influence on credit riskassessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals,establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the
creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grantscredit terms in the normal course of business.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initialrecognition of asset and whether there has been a significantincrease in credit risk on an ongoing basis through eachreporting period. To assess whether there is a significantincrease in credit risk the Company compares the risk ofdefault occurring on asset as at the reporting date with therisk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considersreasonable and supportive forwarding-looking informationsuch as:
i) Actual or expected significant adverse changesin business;
ii) Actual or expected significant changes in the operatingresults of the counterparty;
iii) Financial or economic conditions that are expected tocause a significant change to the counterparty's abilityto meet its obligations;
iv) Significant increase in credit risk on other financialinstruments of the same counterparty;
v) Significant changes in the value of the collateralsupporting the obligation or in the quality of the third-party guarantees or credit enhancements.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonableexpectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engagein a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans orreceivables have been written off, the Company continuesto engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recoverthe receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these arerecognized as income in the statement of profit and loss.
For trade receivables, the Company applies the simplifiedapproach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instrument,which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognizedfrom initial recognition of the receivables. When determiningwhether the credit risk of a financial asset has increasedsignificantly since initial recognition and when estimatingexpected credit Losses (ECL), the Company considersreasonable and relevant information that is available withoutundue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative andqualitative information and analysis, based on the Company'shistorical experience and informed credit assessment andincluding forward looking information.
