Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, itis probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and areliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are determined based on managementestimates required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, supplemented by experience of similar transactions.These are reviewed at the balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current management estimates.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of whichwill be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within thecontrol of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflowof resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made, is termed as a contingentliability.
Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders by theweighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. No instruments have been issued by thecompany or are outstanding on the end of the reporting period that has the potential to dilute the EPS.
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business. Tradereceivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significantfinancing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The Company holds the trade receivables with theobjective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using theeffective interest method, less loss allowance.
Short term employee benefits include salaries and short-term cash bonus. A liability is under short-term cash bonus ortarget-based incentives if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of pastservice provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably. These costs are recognised as an expensein the Statement of Profit and Loss at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid over the period of services renderedby the employees to the Company.
Borrowing costs include interest expense as per the effective interest rate (EIR) and other costs incurred by the Companyin connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the year in which they areincurred. The difference between the discounted amount mobilized and redemption value of commercial papers isrecognized in the statement of profit and loss over the life of the instrument using the EIR.
The income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax incurred by the Company. Income tax expense is recognisedin the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or OCI, in which case thetax effect is recognised in equity or OCI. Income tax payable on profits is based on the applicable tax laws in each taxjurisdiction and is recognised as an expense in the period in which profit arises.
Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted forthe reporting period and any adjustment to tax payable/receivable in respect of previous years. Current tax assets andliabilities are offset only if, the Company has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts; and intendseither to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities forfinancial reporting purpose and the amounts for tax purposes. The measurement of deferred tax reflects the taxconsequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover orsettle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets arerecognised, for all deductible temporary differences, to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will beavailable against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse,based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable thatthe related tax benefit will be realized, such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profitsimproves.
The tax effects of income tax losses, available for carry forward, are recognised as deferred tax asset, when it is probablethat future taxable profits will be available against which these losses can be set-off. Unrecognised deferred tax assets arere-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profitswill allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations that the management have made in theprocess of applying the Company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amountsrecognized in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
These estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to the accounting estimates inthe period in which the estimate is revised if their vision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision andfuture periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Management reviews the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting. As at March 31, 2024 management assessedthat the useful lives represent the expected utility of the assets to the Company. Further, there is no significant change inthe useful lives as compared to previous year.
The recognition and measurement of other provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an outflow ofresources, and on past experience and circumstances known at the reporting date. The actual outflow of resources at afuture date may therefore, vary from the amount included in other provisions.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between thecarrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extentthat it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences couldbe utilized.
The preparation of the company's financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates andassumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanyingdisclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result inoutcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
In the process of applying the company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, whichhave the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the standalone financial statements.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, thathave a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the nextfinancial year, are described below. The company based on its assumptions and estimates on parameters available whenthe 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 changesare reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
On an ongoing basis, Company reviews pending cases, claims by third parties and other contingencies. For contingentlosses that are considered probable, an estimated loss is recorded as an accrual in financial statements. LossContingencies that are considered possible are not provided for but disclosed as Contingent liabilities in the financialstatements. Contingencies the likelihood of which is remote are not disclosed in the financial statements. Gaincontingencies are not recognized until the contingency has been resolved and amounts are received or receivable.

The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
• Credit risk ;
• Liquidity risk ; and
• Market risk
i. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counter party will not meet its obligation leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed tocredit risk arising from its operating activities primarily from trade receivables and from financing activities primarilyrelating to parking of surplus funds as Deposits with Banks. The Company considers probability of default upon initialrecognition of assets and whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout thereporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of defaultoccurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. This assessmentis based on available information and the business environment.
a) Trade and other receivables
The Company has a Credit Policy and extends credit to its customers based on customer's credit worthiness, ability torepay, and past track record. The extension of credit is constantly monitored through a review mechanism. The companyalso covers its domestic as well as export receivables through a credit insurance policy.
The Company has a Credit Policy and extends credit to its customers based on customer's credit worthiness, ability torepay, and past track record. The extension of credit is constantly monitored through a review mechanism.
Based on the assessment as at each reporting date, the expected credit loss allowance is Nil.
The credit risk from balances/deposits with Banks, current investments and other financial assets are managed inaccordance with company's policy. Investment of surplus funds are primarily made in Liquid/Short Term Plan of MutualFunds and in Bank Deposits which carry a high external rating.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company may encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations. The company prepares adetailed Annual Budget to assess both short term as well as long term fund requirements. Month-wise cash flow forecastis also carried out to determine the working capital and other long term fund requirements. As of the balance sheet date,the company funds both these requirements through internal accruals only.
The following tables detail the Company's remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities with agreedrepayment and realisation periods. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financialliabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay and realise.
Market Risk is the risk that the fair value of the future cash flow will fluctuate because of changes in the market pricessuch as currency risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk.
Interest rate risk can be either fair value interest rate risk or cash flow interest rate risk. Fair value interest rate risk isthe risk of changes in fair values of fixed interest bearing investments because of fluctuations in the interest rates. Cashflow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of floating interest bearing investments will fluctuate becauseof fluctuations in the interest rates.
Company's interest rate risk arises from borrowings. Company has long term borrowings at fixed rate of interest. Hence,the company is not exposed to interest rate risk.
Price risk is the risk arising from securities for trade and investments held by the company and classified in the balancesheet either at fair value through Profit & Loss or Other Comprehensive Income. Majority of the company's investmentsare current in nature and primarily in listed equity shares and mutual funds which are not exposed to significant pricerisk.
The Company operates only in the domestic market and is, therefore, not exposed to foreign exchange risk.
