n. PROVISIONS:

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a 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. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed,

the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense
relating to a provision is presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss net of any reimbursement.

o. EARNINGS PER SHARE:

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the
weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders
and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential
equity shares, if any.

p. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENT:

Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short-term deposits with an original
maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of charges in value.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, as defined
above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company's cash management.

q. CASH DIVIDEND:

The Company recognises a liability to make cash or non-cash distributions to equity holders of the Company when the
distribution is authorised and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the Companies Act, 2013,
a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.

r. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence
or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the company or a present obligation that is
not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent
liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured
reliably. The company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.

2.2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS:

The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates customer will be
entitled. The Company determined that the expected value method is the appropriate method to use in estimating the variable
consideration for revenue from contract with customer. The selected method that better predicts the amount of variable
consideration was primarily driven by the number of volume thresholds contained in the contract with the customer. Before
adjusting any amount of variable consideration in the transaction price, the Company considers whether the amount of variable
consideration is constrained. The Company determined that the estimates of variable consideration are not constrained based
on its historical experience, business forecast and the current economic conditions.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company's material accounting policies, management has made the following judgement, which
have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Determining the lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options - Company as lessee.

The Company determines the lease term as the noncancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an
option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the
lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised. The Company has several lease contracts that include extension and
termination options. The Company applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise
the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to
exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term if there
is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise
the option to renew or to terminate (e.g., construction of significant leasehold improvements or significant customisation to
the leased asset).

Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have
a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial
year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial
statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due
to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the
assumptions when they occur.

Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)

The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial
valuation. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future.
These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities
involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these
assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate for plans operated in
India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the
post-employment benefit obligation.

The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for India. Those mortality tables tend to change only at
interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future
inflation rates for India.

Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 33.

Useful Life of Property Plant & Equipment and Intangible assets

Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets are depreciated/amortised over their estimated useful life, after taking
into account estimated residual value. Management reviews the estimated useful life and residual values of the assets annually
in order to determine the amount of depreciation/amortisation to be recorded during any reporting period. The useful life
and residual values are based on the Company's historical experience with similar assets and take into account anticipated
technological changes. The depreciation/amortisation for future periods is revised if there are significant changes from
previous estimates.

33.2 Risks associated with defined benefit plan

Gratuity is a defined benefit plan and company is exposed to the Following Risks:

Interest rate risk: A fall in the discount rate which is linked to the G.Sec. Rate will increase the present value of the liability
requiring higher provision. A fall in the discount rate generally increases the mark to market value of the assets depending on the
duration of assets.

Salary Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of members. As
such, an increase in the salary of the members more than assumed level will increase the plan's liability.

Investment Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by
reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate,
it will create a plan deficit. Currently, for the plan in India, it has a relatively balanced mix of investments in government securities,
and other debt instruments.

Asset Liability Matching Risk: The plan faces the ALM risk as to the matching cash flow. Since the plan is invested in lines of Rule 101
of Income Tax Rules, 1962, this generally reduces ALM risk.

Mortality Risk: Since the benefits under the plan is not payable for life time and payable till retirement age only, plan does not have
any longevity risk.

Concentration Risk: Plan is having a concentration risk as all the assets are invested with the insurance company and a default will
wipe out all the assets. Although probability of this is very less as insurance companies have to follow regulatory guidelines.

The details related to gratuity is on the basis of the certificate issued by the acturial valuer.

45.2 Category-wise Classification of Financial Instruments

i) Fair value hierarchy

This section explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are
(a) recognized and measured at fair value and (b) measured at amortized cost and for which fair values are disclosed in the
financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company
has classified its financial instruments into three levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each
level follows underneath the table.

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation
techniques which maximize 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, the instrument is included in
Level 3.

ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Financial instruments are initially recognized and subsequently re-measured at fair value as described below :

- The fair value of investment in quoted Mutual Funds is measured at quoted price or NAV.

iii) Valuation process

The Company obtains valuation results from external/internal valuers for level 2 measurements. Inputs to level 2
measurements are verified by the Company's treasury department.

iv) Fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost

The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, Bank Balance other than cash and cash equivalents, trade
receivables, trade payables, investments in unquoted equity of joint venture / subsidiary company and government
securities, other financial assets, short term borrowings, non current borrowings and other current financial liabilities
approximate their carrying amounts.

46 Financial Instrument Risk, Management, Objectives & Policies

46.1 Financial risk management

The management of the Company has implemented a risk management system that is monitored by the Board of Directors.
The general conditions for compliance with the requirements for proper and future-oriented risk management within the
Company are set out in the risk management principles. These principles aim at encouraging all members of staff to responsibly
deal with risks as well as supporting a sustained process to improve risk awareness. The guidelines on risk management specify
risk management processes, compulsory limitations, and the application of financial instruments. The risk management
system aims at identifying, analyzing, managing, controlling and communicating risks promptly throughout the Company. Risk
management reporting is a continuous process and part of regular company reporting.

The Company is exposed to credit, liquidity and market risks (interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk)
during the course of ordinary activities. The aim of risk management is to limit the risks arising from operating activities and
associated financing requirements.

46.2 Credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities,
including deposits with banks. The balances with banks and security deposits are subject to low credit risk since the counter¬
party has strong capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default is negligible or nil.

Trade receivables, Loans and Advances to Suppliers & Others

Credit risk arises from the possibility that customer / borrowers will not be able to settle their obligations as and when agreed.
To manage this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers and the brorrowers, taking into account
the financial condition, current economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts, ageing of accounts receivable and forward
looking information.

The provision on trade receivables for expected credit loss is recognized on the basis of life-time expected credit losses
(simplified approach). Trade receivables are evaluated separately for balances towards progress billings and retention money
due from customers. An expected loss rate is calculated at each year-end, based on combination of rate of default and rate of
delay. The Company considers the rate of default and delay upon initial recognition of asset, based on the past experience and
forward-looking information, wherever available. The provision on loans for expected credit loss is recognized on the basis of
12-month expected credit losses and assessed for significant increase in the credit risk.

Concentrations of Credit Risk form part of Credit Risk

During the year ended March 31, 2025, Sales to a Customer of Rs 574.76 Crore (or 13.97 % of Net revenue) and during the year
ended March 2024 ,sales to such customer 479.13 Crore(or 11.22% of net revenue).Account receivable from such customer
Rs.Nil (or 0% total receivalbes)at March 31, 2025 and Rs.Nil (or 0% total receivalbes)at March 31,2024.A loss of this customer
could significantly affect the operating results or cash flows of the Company

46.3 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company's
approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due without incurring
unacceptable losses. In doing this, management considers both normal and stressed conditions.

Cash flow from operating activities provides the funds to service the financial liabilities on a day-to-day basis. Liquidity crises has led
to default in repayment of principal and interest to lenders however the Company regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure
it has sufficient cash on an on-going basis to meet operational needs. Any short term surplus cash generated, over and above the
amount required for working capital management and other operational requirements, is retained as cash and cash equivalents (to the
extent required) and any excess is used for the repayment of loan, invested in interest bearing term deposits and mutual funds with
appropriate maturities to optimize the cash returns on investments while ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities.

46.4 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk. Financial instruments
affected by market risk includes borrowings, deposits, investments, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and
