Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal and constructive obligation as a result of a past event, for which it is probable that cash outflow willbe required and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate ofthe expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax ratethat reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
l) Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A contingent liability exists when there is a possible but not probable obligation, or a present obligation that may, but probably will not, require an outflowof resources, or a present obligation whose amount cannot be estimated reliably. Contingent liabilities do not warrant provisions, but are disclosed unless thepossibility of outflow of resources is remote.
Contingent assets are disclosed in the financial statements where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
m) Cash and cash equivalent
Cash and cash equivalents include balance with banks in current accounts and term deposits, cash & cheques in hand and money lent on collateralized lending& borrowing obligations transactions.
n) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) of the company.The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments of the Company.
o) Assets held for sale
Assets are classified as held for sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.
Such assets measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell with gains and losses on remeasurement recognised in profit or loss.Once classified as held for sale, assets are no longer amortised. depreciated or impaired.

As at As at
_31 March 2025__31 March 2024_
; (2.41) (0.34)
(a) Funding
The scheme is fully funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The funding requirements are based on the gratuity fund’s actuarialmeasurement framework set out in the funding policies of the plan. The funding of the plan is based on a separate actuarial valuation for fundingpurposes for which the assumptions may differ from the assumptions set out in Section D below. Employees do not contribute to the plan.
Expected contributions to gratuity plan for the year ending 31 March 2025 is Rs. 1.10 crore.
Valuations are based on certain assumptions, which are dynamic in nature and vary over time. As such company is exposed to various risks as follow -Medical Cost Increase - increase in actual medical cost per retiree will increase the Plan’s liability. Increase in medical Cost per Retiree rateassumption will also increase the liability.
Investment Risk - If Plan is funded then assets liabilities mismatch & actual investment return on assets lower than the discount rate assumed at thelast valuation date can impact the liability.
Discount Rate : Reduction in discount rate in subsequent valuations can increase the plan’s liability.
Mortality & disability : Actual deaths & disability cases proving lower or higher than assumed in the valuation can impact the liabilities.
Withdrawals : Actual withdrawals proving higher or lower than assumed withdrawals and change of withdrawal rates at subsequent valuations canimpact Plan’s liability.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into transactions that result in the transfer of loans and advances given to customers. In accordancewith the accounting policy set out in Note 2, the transferred financial assets continue to be recognised in their entirety or to the extent of the Company'scontinuing involvement, or are derecognised in their entirety. The Company transfers financial assets that are not derecognised in their entirety are primarilythrough the sale of NPA loans to asset reconstruction companies (ARCs).
A. Transferred financial assets that are not derecognised in their entiretySale of NPA loans to asset reconstruction companies (ARCs)
Sale of NPA loans to asset reconstruction companies (ARCs)' are transactions in which the Company sells loan and advances to an unconsolidated specialvehicle and simultaneously purchases the majority portion of security receipts issued by said vehicle. The security receipts are collateralised by the loanspurchased by the vehicle and hence the cash flow of the security receipts is dependent on the recovery of purchased loans. The Company continues torecognise that part of the loans in their entirety against which security receipts have been subscribed by the Company because it retains substantially allof the risks and rewards of ownership w.r.t that part of the transferred loan. The part of loan transferred against which cash consideration is received isderecognised.
The following table sets out the carrying amounts and fair values of one financial asset transferred that is not derecognised in entirety and associatedliabilities.
There are equity instruments in 43 companies which are presently under CIRP or liquidation. In respect of these companies, equity instruments are beingcarried at Nil value in the book of accounts, as on 31st March 2025.
The valuation in 36 cases of investment was not carried as on 31st March 2025 and same shall be undertaken in the next financial year.
The respective operational department performs the valuation of financial assets and liabilities required for financial reporting purposes, either externally orinternally for every quaterly reporting period. The objective of valuation techniques is to arrive at a fair value measurement that reflects the price that wouldbe received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.Level 1: Inputs that are quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 : The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in active markets is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use ofobservable market data either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, for substantially the full termof the financial instrument but do not qualify as Level 1 inputs. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable the instrument isincluded in level 2.
Level 3 : If one or more of the significant inputs is not based in observable market data, the instruments is included in level 3. That is, Level 3 inputsincorporate market participants’ assumptions about risk and the risk premium required by market participants in order to bear that risk. It develops Level 3inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The valuation techniques used in measuring Level 2 and Level 3 fair values for financial instruments measured at fair value in the balance sheet, as well asthe significant unobservable inputs used.
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are:
(a) recognised and measured at fair value and
(b) measured at amortised 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 thethree levels prescribed under the accounting standard. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value - recurring fair value measurements
A Risk management framework
The Company's Board of Directors have overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. The boardof directors have established the Risk Management and Asset Liability Management Committee of the Directors (RALMCD) which is responsiblefor developing and monitoring the Company's integrated risk management policies. The RALMCD is assisted in its oversight role by the Risk andAsset Liability Management Committee of Executives (RALMCE). The Integrated Risk Management Department undertakes regular reviews of riskmanagement controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the RALMCE.
B. Credit risk
Credit risk arises from loans and advances, cash and cash equivalents, investment in debt securties and deposits with banks and financial institutionsand any other financial assets. Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meetits contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's loans and advances to customers, trade receivables from customers; loans andinvestments in debt securities.
a) Credit risk management
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer/obligor. However, managementalso considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk associated with the industry, businessspecific risk, management risk, transition specific risk and project related risks.
A financial asset is considered ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of thefinancial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
- Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower
- A breach of contract, such as default
- The lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, having granted to the borrowerconcession(s)
that the lender(s) would not otherwise consider
- It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation
- The disappearance of the active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties
- Purchase or origination of a financial asset at a deep discount that reflects the incurred credit loss
The risk management committee has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually for credit worthinessbefore the Company’s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company’s review includes minimum finalised internalrating, external ratings, if they are available, background verification, financial statements, income tax returns, credit agency information, industryinformation, etc. Credit limits have been established for each customer and reviewed periodically and modifications are done, as and when required.Any loan exceeding prescribed limits require approval from the respective competent authority.
b) Probablity of defalut (PD)
The Probability of Default (PD) defines the probability that the borrower will default on its obligations in the future. Ind AS 109 requires the useof separate PD for a 12 month duration and lifetime duration based on the stage allocation of the borrower. A PD used for Ind AS 109 shouldreflect the institution’s view of the future and should be unbiased (i.e. it should not include any conservatism or optimism). Probability of Defaultare mapped to IFCI's internal obligor ratings.
Default’ has not been defined under Ind AS. An entity shall apply a default definition that is consistent with the definition used for internal creditrisk management purposes and consider qualitative indicators when appropriate. A loan is considered as defaulted and therefore Stage-3 (creditimpaired) for ECL calculations in the following cases:
-On deterioration of the IFCI internal combined ratings of the borrower to CR-9 or CR-10 (Comparison to be done between origination rating andcurrent rating).
-On asset being classified as NPA as per RBI prudential norms-On restructuring of assets with impairment in loan value-On asset being more than 90 days past dues.
d) Exposure at default (EAD)
The exposure at default (EAD) represents the gross carrying amount of the financial instruments which is subject to the impairment calculation.
e) Loss given default (LGD)
LGD is an estimate of the loss from the transaction given that a default occurs. For arriving at LGD, future cashflows are estimated for each assetand their present value is computed.
f Significant increase in credit risk
At each reporting date, an entity shall assess whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition.When making the assessment, an entity shall use the change in the risk of the default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrumentinstead of the change in the amount of expected credit loss. To make that assessment, an entity shall compare the risk of a default occurring on thefinancial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition andconsider reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risksince initial recognition. An entity may assume that the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognitionif the financial instrument is determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date.
C. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the potential inability to meet the institution’s liabilities as they become due. From IFCI perspective, it basically originates from themismatches in the maturity pattern of assets and liabilities. Analysis of liquidity risk involves the measurement of not only the liquidity position of theinstitution on an ongoing basis but also examining how funding requirements are likely to be affected under severe but plausible scenarios. Net fundingrequirements are determined by analysing the institution’s future cash flows based on assumptions of the future behaviour of assets and liabilities thatare classified into specified time buckets, utilizing the maturity ladder approach and then calculating the cumulative net flows over the time frame forliquidity assessment.
For the present, for measuring and managing net funding requirements, the use of maturity ladder and calculation of cumulative surplus or deficit of fundsat selected maturity dates is being utilized as a standard tool.
The ALM format prescribed by RBI in this regard is being utilized for measuring cash flow mismatches in different time bands. The cash flows areplaced in different time bands based on projected future behaviour of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items. Apart from the above cash flows, theinstitution would also track the impact of prepayments of loans, premature closure of liabilities and exercise of options built in certain instruments whichoffer put/call options after specified times. Thus, cash outflows can be ranked by the date on which liabilities fall due, the earliest date a liability holdercould exercise an early repayment option or the earliest date contingencies could be crystallized.
The company has initiated an exercise to identify its High Quality Liquid Investments and compute Liquidity Coverage Ratio.
In addition, the Company maintains the following lines of credit:
- IDBI Bank: Rs.110 Crore which is secured against FD with ROI 7.81% p.a.
- HDFC Bank : Rs.16 Crore which is secured against MF with ROI MCLR of the month.
For exposure to liquidity risk, the maturity pattern at point no.55 (xxxiv) may be referred.
D. Market risk
Market risk means the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market variables such as interestrates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. In line with regulatory guidelines, the Company classifies exposures to market risk into either Current orLong term portfolios and manages each of those portfolios separately.
The market risk management framework in IFCI comprises risk identification, setting up of limits & triggers, risk measurement, risk monitoring, riskreporting and taking corrective actions where necessitated. It is pertinent to highlight that the details pertaining to threshold investment grade rating,investment limits, approval authority, control mechanism including stop-loss triggers, compliances required, etc. for different treasury products includingequity trading have been clearly outlined in the extant Treasury & Investment Policy of IFCI.
(a) Market risk - trading portfolios
The Company does not have any trading portfolios.
(b) Market risk - Non-trading portfolios
(i) Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that there is a mismatch between the currencies in which borrowings are denominated and therespective functional currencies of Company. The functional currency for the company is Rs. As on date, foreign currency borrowings are NIL.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Company attempts to minimize the gap between floating rate liabilities and floating rate assets, in order to minimize interest rate risk. This is achievedby way of borrowings at a floating rate and lending at rates linked to IFCI benchmark rate, which in turn is linked to, among others, its cost of borrowings.Further, analysis of impact of change in market rates of interest is carried out on a periodic basis, to analyse impact on Net Interest Income of IFCI andMarket Value of Equity of IFCI. In line with extant regulatory guidelines, Interest rate Sensitivity statement is prepared on a monthly basis and anlysedto understand gaps in various time buckets.
Exposure to interest rate risk
The interest rate profile of the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments as reported to the management is as follows:
Equity price risk is the risk that the fair value of equities declines as a result of changes in the level of equity indices and market price of individual stocks.The non-trading equity price risk exposure arises from equity securities classified at Fair Value. The equity price risk same is applicable to securities heldfor the purpose of trading. As the Company focuses on long term investments and curent investments are kept low (investments held for tradng purposes),IFCI may not be exposed to significant equity price risk.
The basic approach of capital adequacy framework is that, a financial institution should have sufficient capital to absorb shocks on account of any unexpectedlosses arising from the risks in its business.
As per RBI guidelines, IFCI as a Government owned NBFC-ND-SI is required to maintain a minimum capital to risk weighted asset ratio. Capitalmanagement entails optimal utilization of scarce capital to meet extant regulatory capital requirements. IFCI has put in place an appropriate Risk Appetiteframework and computes its capital requirements and adequacy as per extant regulatory guidelines.
i. Regulatory capital
The Company's regulatory capital consists of the sum of the following elements :
- Common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital, which includes ordinary share capital, related share premiums, retained earnings and reserves after adjustment fordividend declared and deduction for goodwill, intangible assets and other regulatory adjustments relating to items that are not included in equity but aretreated differently for capital adequacy purposes.
- Tier 2 capital, which includes preference shares, qualifying subordinated liabilities and any excess of impairment over expected losses.
# For the purpose of calculation of Net Owned Funds, DTA has been considered net of MAT credit entitlement.

Capital allocation
The amount of capital allocated to each operation or activity is undertaken with the objective of minimisation of return on the risk adjusted capital.Allocation of capital is to various lines of business basis annual business plan drawn at the beginning of the year. Various consideration for allocating capitalinclude synergies with existing operations and activities, availability of management and other resources, and benefit of the activity with the company'slong term strategic objectives.
