l) Provisions, contingent liabilities & contingentassets:
The Company recognises provisions when there ispresent obligation as a result of past event and it isprobable that there will be an outflow of resourcesand reliable estimate can be made of the amountof the obligation. If the effect of the time valueof money is material, provisions are determined bydiscounting the expected future cash flows to netpresent value using an appropriate pre-tax discountrate that reflects current market assessments ofthe time value of money and, where appropriate,the risks specific to the liability. Unwinding of thediscount is recognised in the Statement of Profitand Loss as a finance cost. Provisions are reviewedat each reporting date and are adjusted to reflectthe current best estimate.
A present obligation that arises from past eventswhere it is either not probable that an outflow ofresources will be required to settle or a reliableestimate of the amount cannot be made, is disclosedas a contingent liability. Contingent Liabilities arealso disclosed when there is a possible obligationarising from past events, the existence of whichwill be confirmed only by the occurrence or non¬occurrence of one or more uncertain futureevents not wholly within the control of theCompany.
Contingent assets are not recognized in financialstatements since this may result in the recognitionof income that may never be realised.
m) Investments in subsidiary company:
Investments in subsidiary companies are measuredat cost less impairment, if any.
n) Financial instruments:
Financial assets and financial liabilities arerecognised when the Company becomes a partyto the contractual provisions of the instrument.Financial assets and financial liabilities are initiallymeasured at fair value. Transaction costs that are
directly attributable to the acquisition or issueof financial assets and financial liabilities (otherthan financial assets and financial liabilities atfair value through profit or loss) are added to ordeducted from the fair value of the financial assetsor financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initialrecognition. Transaction costs directly attributableto the acquisition of financial assets or financialliabilities at fair value through profit or loss arerecognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial assets
(i) Financial assets carried at amortisedcost
A financial asset is subsequently measured atamortised cost if it is held within a businessmodel whose objective is to hold the asset inorder to collect contractual cash flows and thecontractual terms of the financial asset giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest onthe principal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets at fair value through othercomprehensive income
A financial asset is subsequently measuredat fair value through other comprehensiveincome if it is held within a business modelwhose objective is achieved by both collectingcontractual cash flows and selling financialassets and the contractual terms of the financialasset give rise on specified dates to cash flowsthat are solely payments of principal andinterest on the principal amount outstanding.Further, in case where the company has madean irrevocable selection based on its businessmodel, for its investments which are classifiedas equity instruments, the subsequentchanges in fair value are recognized in othercomprehensive income.
(iii) Financial assets at fair value through profitor loss
A financial asset which is not classified in anyof the above categories are subsequently fairvalued through profit or loss.
(iv) The Company recognizes loss allowances usingthe expected credit loss (ECL) model for thefinancial assets which are not fair valuedthrough profit or loss. Loss allowance fortrade receivables with no significant financingcomponent is measured at an amount equalto lifetime ECL. For all other financial assets,
expected credit losses are measured at anamount equal to the 12-month ECL, unlessthere has been a significant increase incredit risk from initial recognition in whichcase those are measured at lifetime ECL. Theamount of expected credit losses (or reversal)that is required to adjust the loss allowanceat the reporting date to the amount that isrequired to be recognised is recognized as animpairment gain or loss in statement of profitor loss.
Financial liabilities and equity instrumentsClassification as debt or equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issuedby the Company are classified according to thesubstance of the contractual arrangements enteredinto and the definitions of a financial liability andan equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidencesa residual interest in the assets of the Company afterdeducting all of its liabilities. Equity instrumentsare recorded at the proceeds received, net of directissue costs.
Financial liabilities
Trade and other payables are initially measuredat fair value, net of transaction costs, and aresubsequently measured at amortised cost, using theeffective interest rate method where the time valueof money is significant.
Interest bearing bank loans, overdrafts and unsecuredloans are initially measured at fair value and aresubsequently measured at amortised cost usingthe effective interest rate method. Any differencebetween the proceeds (net of transaction costs)and the settlement or redemption of borrowings isrecognised over the term of the borrowings in thestatement of profit and loss.
Derecognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognizes a financial asset whenthe contractual rights to the cash flows from thefinancial asset expire or it transfers the financialasset and the transfer qualifies for derecognitionunder Ind AS 109. A financial liability (or a partof a financial liability) is derecognized from theCompany's balance sheet when the obligationspecified in the contract is discharged or cancelledor expires.
Fair value of financial instruments
In determining the fair value of its financialinstruments, the Company uses a variety ofmethods and assumptions that are based on marketconditions and risks existing at each reporting date.The methods used to determine fair value includediscounted cash flow analysis, available quotedmarket prices and dealer quotes. All methods ofassessing fair value result in general approximationof value, and such value may or may not be realized.
Offsetting financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and thenet amount is reported in the balance sheet wherethere is a legally enforceable right to offset therecognized amounts and there is an intention tosettle on a net basis or realize the asset and settlethe liability simultaneously. The legally enforceableright must not be contingent on future eventsand must be enforceable in the normal course ofbusiness and in the event of default, insolvency orbankruptcy of the Company or the counterparty.
o) Earnings per share :
The basic earnings per share is computed bydividing the profit/(loss) for the year attributableto the equity shareholders by the weighted averagenumber of equity shares outstanding during theyear. For the purpose of calculating diluted earningsper share, profit/(loss) for the year attributable tothe equity shareholders and the weighted averagenumber of the equity shares outstanding duringthe year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutivepotential equity shares.
p) Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on handand demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalentsare short-term balances (with an original maturityof three months or less), highly liquid investmentsthat are readily convertible into known amounts ofcash and which are subject to insignificant risk ofchanges in value.
q) Transactions in foreign currencies:
The financial statements of the Company arepresented in Indian rupees ('), which is thefunctional currency of the Company and thepresentation currency for the financial statements.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies arerecorded at the exchange rate prevailing on thedate of the transaction.
Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities suchas cash, receivables, payables, etc., are translated
at year end exchange rates.
Exchange differences arising on settlement oftransactions and translation of monetary itemsare recognised as income or expense in the year inwhich they arise.
r) Segment reporting - Identification of segments:
An operating segment is a component of theCompany that engages in business activities fromwhich it may earn revenues and incur expenses,whose operating results are regularly reviewed by thecompany's chief operating decision maker to makedecisions for which discrete financial information isavailable. Based on the management approach asdefined in Ind AS 108, the chief operating decisionmaker evaluates the Company's performance andallocates resources based on an analysis of variousperformance indicators by business segments andgeographic segments.
s) Derivatives:
The Company enters into certain derivative contractsto hedge risks which are not designated as hedges.Such contracts are accounted at fair value throughprofit or loss and are included in profit and lossaccount.
t) Leases:
The Company determines whether an arrangementcontains a lease by assessing whether the fulfilmentof a transaction is dependent on the use of aspecific asset and whether the transaction conveysthe right to use that asset to the Company in returnfor payment. Where this occurs, the arrangementis deemed to include a lease and is accounted foreither as finance or operating lease.
The Company as lessee
Operating lease - Rentals payable under operatingleases are charged to the statement of profit andloss on a straight line basis over the term of therelevant lease unless another systematic basis ismore representative of the time pattern in whicheconomic benefits from the leased asset areconsumed.
The Company as lessor
Operating lease - Rental income from operatingleases is recognised in the statement of profitand loss on a straight line basis over the termof the relevant lease unless another systematicbasis is more representative of the time patternin which economic benefits from the leased asset
is diminished. Initial direct costs incurred innegotiating and arranging an operating lease areadded to the carrying value of the leased asset andrecognised on a straight line basis over the leaseterm.
u) Dividend distribution:
Dividends paid (including income tax thereon)is recognised in the period in which the interimdividends are approved by the Board of Directors,or in respect of the final dividend when approved byshareholders.
v) Rounding off amounts:

w) Standards issued but not yet effective:
There is no such notification which would have beenapplicable from April 1, 2024.
3. Use of estimates and critical accounting judgements:
In preparation of the financial statements, the Companymakes judgements, estimates and assumptions aboutthe carrying values of assets and liabilities that arenot readily apparent from other sources. The estimatesand the associated assumptions are based on historicalexperience and other factors that are considered to berelevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and the underlying assumptions arereviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accountingestimates are recognised in the period in which theestimate is revised and future periods affected.
Significant judgements and estimates relating to thecarrying values of assets and liabilities include usefullives of property, plant and equipment and intangibleassets, impairment of property, plant and equipment,intangible assets and investments, provision for employeebenefits and other provisions, recoverability of deferredtax assets, commitments and contingencies.
Nature and purpose of reserves
(i) Capital reserve
This reserve represents the difference between the value of net assets transferred to the company in the course of BusinessCombinations and the considerations paid for such combinations.
(ii) Securities premium
Securities premium is used to record the premium on issue of shares. The reserve is utilised in accordance with the provisionsof the Companies Act, 2013.
(iii) Share option outstanding account
This reserves relates to stock options granted by the company to employees under the MTTL Employee Stock OptionScheme.
This reserve is transferred to securities premium or retained earnings on exercise or cancellation of vested optionsrespectively.
v) Risk exposure
Through its defined benefit plans, the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which are detailedbelow:
Interest rate risk:
The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds. If bond yields fall, the definedbenefit obligation will tend to increase.
Salary inflation risk:
Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
Demographic risk:
This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include mortality, withdrawal, disabilityand retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation is not straight forward and depends uponthe combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria. It is important not to overstate withdrawals becausein the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a longservice employee.
30. Financial instruments and risk managementFair values
1. The carrying amounts of trade payables, other financial liabilities (current), borrowings (current), trade receivables,cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances and loans are considered to be the same as fair value due to their shortterm nature.
2. Borrowings (non-current) consists of loans from banks and other financial assets (non-current) consists of rentdeposits where the fair value is considered based on the discounted cash flow.
3. The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is calculated as the present value determined using forwardexchange rates, currency basis spreads between the respective currencies and interest rate curves.
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in acurrent transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
Set out below, is a comparision by class of the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company's financial instruments, otherthan those with carrying amounts that are reasonable approximation of fair values:
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 valuationtechniques, which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. Ifsignificant inputs required to fair value an instruments are observable, the instrument is included in Level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instruments is included inlevel 3.
Management uses its best judgement in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherentlimitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimatespresented above are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could have realized or paid in saletransactions as of respective dates. As such, the fair value of financial instruments subsequent to the reporting dates maybe different from the amounts reported at each reporting date. In respect of investments as at the transaction date, theCompany has assessed the fair value to be the carrying value of the investments as these companies are in their initial yearsof operations obtaining necessary regulatory approvals to commence their business.
31. Financial risk management
The Company is exposed to market risk (fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, price and interest rate), liquidityrisk and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses theunpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial performanceof the Company.
(A) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changesin market prices. Market risk comprises of currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk. Financial instruments affectedby market risk include loans and borrowings, trade receivables and trade payables involving foreign currency exposure.The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024. Theanalysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying values of financial assets and liabilties.
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. Thisis based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024.
(i) Foreign currency exchange rate risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate becauseof changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange ratesrelates primarily to the trade/ other payables, trade/other receivables and derivative assets/liabilities. Therisks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollar, EURO, CAD and AUD against the functional currencies of theCompany. The Company's exposure to foreign currency changes for all other currencies is not material. TheCompany evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange raterisks.
The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in US Dollar, EURO and AUDexchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company's profit before tax is due tochanges in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities.
The movement in the pre-tax effect is a result of a change in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilitiesdenominated in US Dollar, EURO, GBP, AUD where the functional currency of the entity is a currency other thanUS Dollar, EURO, GBP, AUD(ill) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuatebecause of change in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interestrates relates primarily to the Company's debt obligations with floating interest rates. As the Company has nodebt obligations, exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates is nil.
As the Company has no significant interest bearing assets, the income and operating cash flows are substantiallyindependent of changes in market interest rates.
(B) Credit Risk
Financial assets of the Company include trade receivables, employee advances and bank deposits which representsCompany's maximum exposure to the credit risk.
With respect to credit exposure from customers, the Company has a procedure in place aiming to minimise collectionlosses. Credit Control team assesses the credit quality of the customers, their financial position, past experience inpayments and other relevant factors. The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individualcharacteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit riskof its customer base, including default risk associate with the industry and country in which customers operate. Creditquality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are definedin accordance with this assessment. With respect to other financial assets viz., loans & advances, deposits with
(ill) Significant estimates and judgementsImpairment of financial assets:
The impairment provisions for financial assets disclosed above are based on assumptions about risk of defaultand expected loss rates. The company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs tothe impairment calculation, based on the company's past history, existing market conditions as well as forwardlooking estimates at the end of each reporting period.
(C) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding to meetobligations when due and to close out market positions. Company's treasury maintains flexibility in funding bymaintaining availability under deposits in banks.
Management monitors cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.
32. Capital management
