intangible asset is recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to theasset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.
New product development expenditure, software licences, technical knowhow fee, infrastructure and logisticfacilities, etc, are recognised as intangible assets upon completion of development and commencement ofcommercial production,
intangible assets are amortized on straight line method over their technically estimated useful lives,
Accounting policy:
A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a
period of time in exchange for consideration.
i) Assets taken under lease
a) The Company recognises Right-of-Use (ROU) asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for thelease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the ROU asset is measured in accordance withthe measurement criteria as per Ind AS 116. The ROU asset is depreciated using the straight-line methodfrom the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimateduseful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment.ROU assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts maynot be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
b) The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid atthe commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicitin the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Companyuses incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carryingamount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease paymentsmade and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflectrevised in-substance fixed lease payments. The company recognises the amount of the re-measurementof lease liability in accordance with the requirements under Ind AS 116.
c) The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 leases to short-term leases of allassets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value.The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense.
ii) Assets given on lease
At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or afinance lease. The Company recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income. In caseof a finance lease, finance income is recognised over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constantperiodic rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease.
(i) The Company has adopted ind AS 116, effective annual reporting period beginning April 1, 2019 andapplied the standard to its leases, retrospectively, with the cumulative effect of initially applying thestandard, recognised on the date of initial application (April 1, 2019). The Company has also used thepractical expedient provided by the standard when applying ind AS 116 to leases previously classified asoperating leases under ind AS 17 and therefore, has not reassessed whether a contract, is or contains alease, at the date of initial application, relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous, applyingind AS 37 immediately before the date of initial application. The Company has used a single discount rateto a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics. On transition, the Company recognised a lease liabilitymeasured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-of-use asset is recognised atan amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease paymentsrelating to that lease recognised in the balance sheet immediately before the date of initial applicationusing the practical expedient provided by the standard.
(iv) The company incurred H193.36 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2025 (Previous year H245.91 lakhs)towards expenses relating to short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.

b) Trade receivables
The Company follows 'simplified approach' for recognition of impairment loss allowance on tradereceivables which do not contain a significant financing component. The application of simplifiedapproach does not require the company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognizesimpairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECL's at each reporting date, right from its initialrecognition.

The Company operates internationally and a portion of the business is transacted in several currenciesand consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in thosecountires. The exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recentyears and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Company's operationsare affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies. The company leaves exchangerate risk with regard to foreign exposures unhedged when the local currency is depreciating against theforeign currency and hedges this risk when the local currency is appreciating against the foreign currency.Currently the foreign exchange risk of the company is covered through natural hedge and the Companyuses the foreign currency denominated accounts to mitigate the exchange rate variation.
For the year ended March 31,2025 and March 31,2024, the depreciation / appreciation in the exchange ratebetween the Indian rupee and respective unhedged foreign currency exposures, has resulted in incrementaloperating margins by approximate H1,042.65 lakhs and H632.40 lakhs respectively.
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. Themaximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amountingto ?38,603.05 lakhs and H35,585.75 lakhs as of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Tradereceivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily locatedin India and overseas. Credit risk has always been managed by the company through credit approvals,establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which thecompany grants credit terms in the normal course of business. On account of adoption of Ind AS 109,the company uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The company uses aprovision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables. The provision matrixtakes into account available external and internal credit risk factors and the companie's historical experiencefor customers.
Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the company generally invest in deposits with banksand financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international and domestic credit ratingagencies with no history of default.
The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that isgenerated from operations, The company also has long term and short term borrowings from banks andfinancial institutions, Term loans are project specific and for refinancing of capital expenditures, Short termloans repayable on demand from banks are obtained for the working capital requirements of the company,

However,at all times throughout the duration of the contract, the company is entitled to an amount that at leastcompensates for performance completed to date if the contract is terminated by the customer or anotherparty for reasons other than the company's failure to perform as promised.
Output method is used for measurement where the units produced or units delivered faithfully depict thecompany's performance in satisfying a performance obligation and, at the end of the reporting period, thecompanie's performance has produced work in progress or finished goods that are not controlled by thecustomer.
Input method is used to recognise revenue where the company's efforts or inputs in satisfaction of aperformance obligation (for example, resources consumed, labour hours expended, costs incurred,time elapsed or machine hours used) is relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of thatperformance obligation and depict the company's performance in transferring control of goods or servicesto the customer.
