q. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of oneentity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial AssetsInitial Measurement:
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case offinancial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transactioncosts that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Purchasesor sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frameestablished by regulation or convention in the market place (regular way trades)are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits topurchase or sell the asset.
Subsequent Measurement:
Subsequent measurement is determined with reference to the classification ofthe respective financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristic ofthe financial assets, the company classifies financial assets as subsequentlymeasured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive incomeor fair value through profit and loss.
Financial Assets carried at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held within a businessmodel whose objective is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cashflows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specifieddates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on theprincipal amount outstanding
Financial Assets at fair value through other Comprehensive Income(FVOCI)
A financial asset is measured at FVOCI if it is held within a business modelwhose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and sellingfinancial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise onspecified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and intereston the principal amount outstanding.
Financial Assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories aremeasured at FVTPL
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured at fairvalue with all changes recognized in profit and loss. However currently thecompany does not have any financial instrument in this category.
Equity Investment
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value exceptunquoted equity investments including investment in subsidiary which are statedat cost. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL.For other equity instruments, the company decides to classify the same eitheras at FVTOCI or FVTPL. The company makes such election on an instrumentby instruments basis. The Classification is made on initial recognition and isirrevocable.
If the company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, all fairvalue changes on the instrument, excluding dividends are recognized in othercomprehensive income.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fairvalue with all changes recognized in the profit or loss.
De-recognition of Financial Assets
The Company de-recognises a financial asset only when the contractual rightsto the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the financial asset andsubstantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity.
If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewardsof ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Companyrecognizes its retained interest in the assets and an associated liability foramounts it may have to pay.
If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership ofa transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financialasset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.
Financial Liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilitiesat fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings and payables asappropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, inthe case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributabletransaction costs.
• Borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings aresubsequently measured at fair value.
• Financial Guarantee Contracts
Financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company are those contractsthat require a payment to be made to reimburse the holder for a loss itincurs because the specified debtor fails to make a payment when due inaccordance with the terms of a debt instrument. Financial guaranteecontracts are recognised initially as a liability at fair value, adjusted fortransaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of theguarantee. Subsequently, the liability is measured at the higher of theamount of loss allowance determined as per impairment requirementsof Ind AS 109 and the amount recognised less cumulative amortisation.
• De-recognition of Financial Liabilities
Financial Liabilities are removed from the balance sheet when theobligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired.The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability thathas been extinguished or transferred to another party and theconsideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred orliabilities assumed, is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss asother gains/(losses).
• Offsetting Financial Instruments
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities are offset and the net amountis reported in the Balance Sheet if there is a currently enforceable legalright to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settleon a net basis; to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company measures financial assets and financial liability at fair value ateach balance sheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfera liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurementdate. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transactionto sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
- In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
- In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous marketfor the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by theCompany. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using theassumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability,assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a marketparticipant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in itshighest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would usethe asset in its highest and best use. The Company uses valuation techniquesthat are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data areavailable to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputsand minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in thefinancial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, describedas follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement as a whole:
- Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identicalassets or liabilities
- Level 2 - Valuation Techniques for which the lowest level input that issignificant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectlyobservable
- Level 3 - Valuation Techniques for which the lowest level input that issignificant to the fair value measurement is unobservable. For assetsand liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements ona recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers haveoccurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation(based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
The Management analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilitieswhich are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Company’saccounting policies. For this analysis, the Management verifies the major inputsapplied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuationcomputation and other relevant documents.
Note:
No external valuation was conducted during the Financial Year Ended 31st March, 2025. However, based on internal assessment andmanagement's review of market indicators, there has been no material change in the fair value of the investment property since the lastvaluation. Accordingly, the fair value disclosed as at 31st March, 2024, continues to represent a reasonable estimate of the property'sfair value as at 31st March, 2025.

29. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIESFinancial Risk Factors
The Company’s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company’s overall riskmanagement programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financialperformance of the Company.
Market Risk
Market Risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’sincome or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposureswithin acceptable parameters, by providing for the same, while optimising the return.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company has financial assets which are at fixed interest rates and is therefore not exposed to the risks associated with the effects of fluctuationin interest rates.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign Currency Risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreignexchange rates. As the company does not deal in forex transaction, there is no foreign exchange risk.
Credit Risk
Credit Risk represents the potential loss that the Company would incur if counter parties fail to perform pursuant to the terms of their obligations tothe Company. The Company limits its credit risk by carrying out transactions. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carryingamount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position. The Company’s main credit risk concentration as on 31st March 2025 isnegligible.
There is no risk in terms of Bank Balances, since the counterparty is a reputable bank with high quality external credit ratings.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity Risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managingliquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressedconditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintainingadequate reserves, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of the financial assets andliabilities. The table below illustrates the aged analysis of the Company’s financial liabilities.
