o. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assetsProvisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a resultof a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be requiredto settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-taxrate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, theincrease in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.
Contingent liabilities
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will beconfirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not whollywithin the control of the entity or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognisedbecause it is not probable that an outflow of resource embodying economic benefit will be required tosettle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses it as per Ind AS 37 Provisions,Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets in the financial statements unless the possibility of anoutflow of resources embodying economic benefit is remote.
Contingent assets
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmedonly by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly withinthe control of the Company. The Company does not recognize the contingent asset in its financialstatements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. Where an inflowof economic benefits is probable, the Company discloses a brief description of the nature of contingentassets at the end of the reporting period. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain,then the related asset is not a contingent asset, and the Company recognizes such assets.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each reporting date.
p. Employee benefits
i. Short-term employee benefits:
Employee benefits such as short-term compensated absences, bonus, ex-gratia and performancelinked rewards falling due within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short¬term employee benefits and are charged to the statement of profit and loss in the period in whichthe employee renders the service.
ii. Long-term employee benefits:
The Company provides long-term benefits such as Retention bonus (i.e long service award) andcompensated absences. Retention bonus is awarded to certain cadre of employees on completionof specific years of service. The obligation recognised in respect of these long-term benefits ismeasured at present value of estimated future cash flows expected to be made by the Companyand is recognised on the basis of actuarial valuation, using projected unit credit method as at eachreporting date. As the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer its settlement for 12months after the reporting date, the entire leave is presented as a current liability in the balancesheet and expenses recognised in statement of profit and loss. Long-term compensated absencesand retention bonus are unfunded.
iii. Post-employment benefits:
Defined contribution schemes:
The Company provides defined contribution schemes such as statutory provident fund, employeestate insurance, voluntary superannuation and the pension plan. The Company has no obligationother than the contribution payable to the funds which is recognised as an expense, when anemployee renders the related service. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service receivedbefore the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to thescheme is recognised as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.
If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before thebalance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment willlead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.
Defined benefit plan:
The employee’s gratuity fund scheme managed by board of trustees established by the Company,represent defined benefit plan. Gratuity is provided for on the basis of actuarial valuation, usingprojected unit credit method as at each reporting date.
Re-measurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excludingamounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets(excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognisedimmediately in the balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings throughOCI in the period in which they occur. Re-measurements are not reclassified to statement of profitand loss in subsequent periods. Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the netdefined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognised the following changes in defined benefitobligation as an expense in statement of profit or loss:
• Service cost comprising of current service cost, past service cost, gains and loss on entitlementsand non-routine settlement.
• Net interest expenses or income.
Gains or losses on settlement of any defined benefit plan are recognised when the settlementoccurs. In case of funded plans, the fair value of the plan assets is reduced from the gross obligationunder the defined benefit plans to recognise the obligation on a net basis.
q. Share based payment
Employees of the Company have been granted Employee Stock Option Plan, whereby employees renderservices as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).
The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant ismade using an appropriate valuation model. Further details are given in Note 36.
That cost is recognised as employee benefits, together with a corresponding increase in Share optionsoutstanding account in other equity, over the vesting period in which the performance and/or serviceconditions are required to be fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactionsat each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expiredand the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimates of the number of options that areexpected to vest based on the performance and/ or service conditions. It recognises the impact of therevision to original estimates, if any, in statement of profit and loss with a corresponding adjustmentto equity.
The expense or credit in the statement of profit and loss for a period represents the movement incumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period and is recognised in employeebenefits expense with a corresponding movement in Share options outstanding account in otherequity. In case of the employee stock option schemes having a graded vesting schedule, each vestingtranche having different vesting period has been considered as a separate option grant and accountedfor accordingly.
Where shares are forfeited due to a failure by the employee to satisfy the service conditions, any expensespreviously recognised in relation to such shares are reversed effective from the date of the forfeiture.
Employees of the subsidiary companies also received the options in the form of share-based paymenttransactions. The cost of equity settled transactions are recovered by the Company from the subsidiarycompanies on yearly basis based on the estimated options that will vest to the employees of thesubsidiary companies.
The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation ofdiluted earnings per share.
r. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financialliability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractualcash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them. With the exception oftrade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company hasapplied the practical expedient, on initial recognition, a financial asset is recognised at fair value. Incase of financial assets which are recognised at fair value through profit or loss, its transaction cost isrecognised in the statement of profit and loss. In other cases, the transaction cost is attributed to theacquisition value of the financial asset.
Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company hasapplied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115.Refer to the accounting policies in 2.3 (e) - Revenue from contracts with customers.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in below categories:
• at amortized cost
• at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
• at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when the business model aims to collect contractualcash flows; and cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI). Post initial recognition,assets are measured using EIR method and are subject to ECL based impairment.
Financial assets are measured at FVTOCI when objective is both collecting cash flows and selling assets;and cash flows meet SPPI. The Company recognizes the movements in fair value in OCI, interest income,impairment losses in the statement of profit and loss. On de-recognition of the asset, cumulative gain orloss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from OCI to statement of profit and loss. The Companyhas not designated any financial asset as at FVTOCI.
Financial assets measured at FVTPL is the default category for assets not qualifying for amortised costor FVTOCI. FVTPL asset category is measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the statementof profit and loss. Equity investments are generally classified as FVTPL unless designated as FVTOCI.
De-recognition
A financial asset is de recognised when rights to cash flows expire, or rights are transferred and risks andrewards are substantially transferred; or neither transferred nor retained, but control is transferred.
Continuing involvement is recognised only to the extent of retained risks/ obligations and is measuredat the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration thatthe Company could be required to repay.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company recognises an allowance for Expected Credit Loss (ECL)model to financial assets measured at amortised cost, financial assets at FVTOCI, trade receivables,and loan commitments or financial guarantees. Impairment on trade receivables is recognised usingthe simplified approach, which requires lifetime ECL, right from its initial recognition. The Companyhas established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted forforward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. For all other financialassets, impairment is based on either 12 month ECL or lifetime ECL, depending on whether there hasbeen a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. Financial assets are written off whenthere is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.
Financial liabilities
At initial recognition, financial liabilities are classified as FVTPL, at fair value through other equity,loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effectivehedge, as appropriate.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings andpayables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (‘FVTPL’)
Financial liabilities as FVTPL include financial liabilities held for trading and designated upon initialrecognition as FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for thepurpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category also includes derivative financial instrumentsentered into by the Company that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships asdefined by Ind AS 109. Separate embedded derivatives are also classified as held for trading unless theyare designated as effective hedging instruments.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL are designated as such at the initial dateof recognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109 are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL,fair value gains / losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognized in OCI. These gains/ losses are not subsequently transferred to statement of profit and loss. However, the Company maytransfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity. All other changes in fair value of such liability arerecognised in the statement of profit and loss. The Company has not designated any financial liabilityat FVTPL.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
After initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised costusing the EIR method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premiumon acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. Gains and losses are recognised instatement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisationprocess. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
Supplier finance arrangements
The Company enters into supplier finance arrangements through issuance of Letters of Credit, underwhich suppliers may, at their discretion, obtain early payment from banks or financial institutions.
Management has assessed that such arrangements do not result in a substantive change in the natureof the underlying liability, as the obligation continues to arise from purchase transactions forming partof the Company’s operating cycle. Accordingly, amounts outstanding are presented as trade payables.Finance costs relating to extended credit periods are recognised as finance costs. Cash flows relatingto such arrangements are classified as operating activities, consistent with the classification of theunderlying liability.
Where an arrangement results in derecognition of trade payable and recognition of a separate financingarrangement (e.g., buyer’s credit), such balances are presented as borrowings, with related cash flowsclassified as financing activities.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled orexpires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantiallydifferent terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange ormodification is treated as the de recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability.The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Reclassification of financial assets and liabilities
The Company determines classification of financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition. Afterinitial recognition, no reclassification is made for financial assets which are equity instruments andfinancial liabilities. For financial assets which are debt instruments, a reclassification is made only ifthere is a change in the business model for managing those assets. Changes to the business model areexpected to be infrequent. The Company’s senior management determines change in the business modelas a result of external or internal changes which are significant to the Company’s operations. Suchchanges are evident to external parties. A change in the business model occurs when the Company eitherbegins or ceases to perform an activity that is significant to its operations. If the Company reclassifiesfinancial assets, it applies the reclassification prospectively from the reclassification date which isthe first day of the immediately next reporting period following the change in business model. TheCompany does not restate any previously recognised gains, losses (including impairment gains or losses)or interest.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheetif there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intentionto settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
s. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit / (loss) after tax for the year attributableto equity shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) by the weightedaverage number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equityshares outstanding during the year are adjusted for any bonus shares issued during the year and alsoafter the balance sheet date but before the date the financial statements are approved by the boardof directors.
Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit/ (loss) after tax for the yearattributable to equity shareholders (after deducting preference dividends and attributable taxes) bythe weighted average number of shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weightedaverage number of equity shares which could have been outstanding on issue / conversion of all dilutivepotential equity shares.
The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted for bonus shares asappropriate. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable, had the sharesbeen issued at fair value. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning ofthe year, unless issued at a later date.
t. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short-termdeposits with an original maturity of three months or less and highly liquid investments that are readilyconvertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
u. Dividend
The Company recognises a liability to pay dividend when the distribution is authorised by way of approvalof shareholders. A corresponding amount is recognised directly in equity.
v. Events after the reporting period
If the Company receives information after the reporting period, but prior to the date the financialstatements are approved for issue, about conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period,the Company assess whether the information affects the amounts that it recognises in its financialstatements. The Company will adjust the amounts recognised in its financial statements to reflect anyadjusting events after the reporting period and update the disclosures that relate to those conditionsin light of the new information. For non-adjusting events after the reporting period, the Company willnot change the amounts recognised in its financial statements but will disclose the nature of the non¬adjusting event and an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot bemade, if applicable.
2.4. Other accounting policiesa. Government grants and subsidies
Grants and subsidies from the government are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that [i] theCompany will comply with the conditions attached to them, and [ii] the grant / subsidy will be received.
When the grant or subsidy relates to revenue, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis in thestatement of profit and loss over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs, whichthey are intended to compensate.
Where the grant relates to an asset, it is recognised as deferred income and released to income in equalamounts over the expected useful life of the related asset.
When the Company receives grants of non-monetary assets, the asset and the grant are recorded at fairvalue amounts and released to profit or loss over the expected useful life in a pattern of consumption ofthe benefit of the underlying asset i.e. by equal annual instalments. When loans or similar assistanceare provided by governments or related institutions, with an interest rate below the current applicablemarket rate, the effect of this favourable interest is regarded as a government grant. The loan orassistance is initially recognised and measured at fair value and the government grant is measuredas the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan and the proceeds received. The loan issubsequently measured as per the accounting policy applicable to financial liabilities.
b. Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations
Non-current assets or disposal groups comprising of assets and liabilities are classified as ‘held for sale’if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than throughcontinuing use and a sale is considered as highly probable to be concluded within 12 months from thebalance sheet date.
Such non-current assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fairvalue less costs to sell. Non-current assets including those that are part of a disposal group held forsale are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale.
Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately from other items in thebalance sheet.
Discontinued operations represent a component of the Company that has been disposed of or is classifiedas held for sale and represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or geographical area; or is asubsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presentedseparately as ‘profit or loss before tax from discontinued operations,’ tax expense/(income] ofdiscontinued operations,’ and ‘profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations,’ in the statementof profit and loss.
c. Derivative financial instruments and hedge accountingInitial recognition and subsequent measurement
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward currency contracts to hedge itsforeign currency risks. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value onthe date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value.Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities whenthe fair value is negative.
Commodity contracts that are entered into and continue to be held for the purpose of the receipt or deliveryof a non-financial item in accordance with the Company’s expected purchase, sale or usage requirementsare held at cost.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives are taken directly to profit or loss,except for the effective portion of cash flow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and later reclassified toprofit or loss when the hedge item affects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustment if a hedged forecasttransaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability.
For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as:
• Fair value hedges when hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognised asset orliability or an unrecognised firm commitment,
• Cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to aparticular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transactionor the foreign currency risk in an unrecognised firm commitment,
• Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation.
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedgerelationship to which the Company wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objectiveand strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes the Company’s risk managementobjective and strategy for undertaking hedge, the hedging / economic relationship, the hedged itemor transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged, hedge ratio and how the entity will assess theeffectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes inthe hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk.
Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cashflows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effectivethroughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.
Hedges that meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for, as described below:
i. Fair value hedges
The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit and lossas finance costs. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged isrecorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statementof profit and loss as finance costs.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying valueis amortised through profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. EIRamortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged itemceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profitor loss. When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequentcumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk isrecognised as an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in statement ofprofit and loss.
ii. Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument is recognised in OCIin the cash flow hedge reserve, while any ineffective portion is recognised immediately in thestatement of profit and loss.
The Company uses forward currency contracts as hedges of its exposure to foreign currency riskin forecast transactions and firm commitments, as well as forward commodity contracts for itsexposure to volatility in the commodity prices. The ineffective portion relating to foreign currencycontracts is recognised in finance costs and the ineffective portion relating to commodity contractsis recognised in finance income or finance cost.
Amounts recognised as OCI are transferred to statement of profit and loss when the hedgedfinancial income or financial expense is recognised or when a forecast sale occurs.
When the hedged item is the cost of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, the amountsrecognised as OCI are transferred to the initial carrying amount of the non-financial assetor liability.
If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised without replacement or rollover(as part of the hedging strategy], or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge nolonger meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss previously recognisedin OCI remains separately in equity until the forecast transaction occurs or the foreign currencyfirm commitment is met.
2.5. Climate-related matters
The Company considers climate-related matters in estimates and assumptions, where appropriate. Thisassessment includes a wide range of possible impacts on the Company due to both physical and transitionrisks. Even though the Company believes its business model and products will still be viable after thetransition to a low-carbon economy, climate-related matters increase the uncertainty in estimates andassumptions underpinning several items in the financial statements.
Even though climate-related risks might not currently have a significant impact on measurement, theCompany is closely monitoring relevant changes and developments, such as new climate-related legislation.The items and considerations that are most directly impacted by climate-related matters are:
a. Useful life of property, plant and equipment: When reviewing the residual values and expected usefullives of assets, the Company considers climate-related legislation and regulations that may restrictthe use of assets or require significant capital expenditures.
b. Impairment of non-financial assets: The value-in-use may be impacted in several different ways bytransition risk in particular, such as climate-related legislation and regulations and changes in demandfor the Company’s products. The Company considered expectations for increased costs of emissions,increased demand for goods sold by the Company’s WTG equipment CGU and cost increases due tostricter recycling requirements in the cash-flow forecasts in assessing value-in-use amounts.
c. Fair value measurement: For revalued office properties, the Company considers the effect of physicaland transition risks and whether investors would consider those risks in their valuation. The Companybelieves it is not currently exposed to severe physical risks, but believes that investors, to some extent,would consider impacts of transition risks in their valuation, such as increasing requirements for energyefficiency of buildings due to climate-related legislation and regulations as well as tenants’ increasingdemands for low-emission buildings.
3. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
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 couldresult in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected infuture periods.
3.1 Significant accounting judgements
The management has exercised judgements in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the keyareas where such judgement has a material impact on the amounts recognised and presented in the financialstatements are set out below:
a. Operating lease commitments - Company as a lessor
The Company has entered into commercial property leases on its investment property portfolio. TheCompany has determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements,such as the lease term not constituting a major part of the economic life of the commercial propertyand the fair value of the asset, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of theseproperties and accounts for the contracts as operating leases.
Lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options - Company as lessee
The lease term comprises the non cancellable period together with periods covered by renewal optionswhere exercise is reasonably certain and termination options where non exercise is reasonably certain.The Company applies judgement, considering all relevant economic factors, in assessing such certainty.The lease term is reassessed upon significant events or changes in circumstances within the Company’scontrol that affect this assessment. Refer to Note 37.1 for information on potential future rentalpayments relating to periods.
b. Revenue from contracts with customers
The Company applied the following judgements that significantly affect the determination of the amountand timing of revenue from contracts with customers:
• Identifying performance obligations
The Company supplies WTG that are either sold separately or bundled together with project executionactivities to customers.
The Company determines that both the supply of WTGs and project execution activities can be performeddistinctly on a stand-alone basis which indicates that the customer can benefit from respectiveperformance obligations on their own. The Company also determines that the promises to supplythe WTG and execute projects are distinct within the context of the contract and are not inputs to acombined item in the contract. Further, the WTG supply and project execution activities are not highlyinterdependent or highly interrelated, as the Company would be able to supply WTGs wherein the projectexecution activities can be performed by customers directly. Also, the Company uses output method formeasuring the progress of performance obligation as it represents a faithful depiction of the transfer ofgoods or services
• Estimation of variable consideration and assessment of the constraint
Contracts for the supply of WTGs and project execution activities include provision for penalty relatedto delayed delivery or commissioning and compensation for performance shortfalls expected over thelife of the guarantee period. Such contractual provisions give rise to variable consideration.
In estimating variable consideration, the Company assess the specific terms of each contract andconsiders relevant factors on a case-to-case basis. Before including any amount of variable considerationin the transaction price, the Company evaluates whether such amounts are subject to the constraint onvariable consideration. Based on historical experience and current economic conditions, the Companydoes not expect any significant reversal of revenue recognised from variable consideration, and therelated uncertainty is expected to be resolved in the near term.
c. Supplier finance arrangements
The Company enters into supplier finance arrangements with the suppliers through Letters of Credit,with extended payment terms beyond normal trade credit periods. Judgement is applied to assesswhether such arrangements continue as trade payables or constitute borrowings, based on whetherthere is substantial modification of the original terms.
Based on this assessment, LC-based obligations are classified as trade payables, as they arise frompurchase transactions and do not involve substantive modification of terms. This assessment is reviewedif the terms of such arrangements change.
3.2 Significant accounting estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation of uncertainty at the reportingdate, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets andliabilities within the next financial year, are described below. Uncertainty about these assumption andestimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets orliabilities affected in future periods.
a. Allowance for trade receivables
Trade receivables do not carry any interest and are stated at their transaction value as reduced byappropriate allowance for expected credit loss (“ECL”]. The measurement of ECL involves significantestimation uncertainty. The Company applies the ‘simplified approach’ and recognises lifetime ECLright from its initial recognition using a provision matrix based on historical credit loss experience.Such estimates are adjusted for forward-looking information including economic factors which requiresmanagement judgement.
Further, for customer segments with distinct risk profiles, the Company determines impairment lossallowances using management judgement considering customer specific credit risk and financialposition. Details on movement in allowance for credit impairment and expected credit loss are given inNote 10.2.
b . Taxes
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxableprofit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgementis required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon thelikely timing and the level of future taxable profits, future tax planning strategies. The Company hasunabsorbed depreciation and brought forward losses details of which are given in Note 32.3.
c. Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation aredetermined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptionsthat may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discountrate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation andits long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions.Assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discountrate for plans operated, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currenciesconsistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. The estimates of future salaryincrease consider the inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors.
Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 35.
d. Fair value measurement of financial instruments
When the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the balance sheet cannotbe measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuationtechniques including the Discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model. The inputs to these models are takenfrom observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is requiredin establishing fair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, creditrisk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value offinancial instruments. Refer Note 42 for further disclosures.
e. Intangible assets under development
The Company capitalises intangible assets under development for a project in accordance with theaccounting policy. Initial capitalisation of costs is based on management’s assessment that technologicaland economic feasibility has been established, which is generally evidenced by the achievement ofdefined development milestones in accordance with the Company’s project management framework.In determining the costs to be capitalised, management applies judgement in assessing the expectedfuture economic benefits of the project, including assumptions relating to future cash generation andthe period over which such benefits are expected to be realised. The carrying value of intangible assetsunder development has been disclosed in Note 8.
f. Property, plant and equipment
Refer Note 2.3 (h) for the estimated useful life and Note 4 for carrying value of property, plantand equipment.
g. Share based payment
Estimating fair value for share based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriatevaluation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requiresdetermination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of theshare option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions andmodels used for estimating fair value for share based payment transactions are disclosed in Note 36.
h. Leases - Estimating the incremental borrowing rate
As the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company measures its leaseliabilities using the incremental borrowing rate (IBR). The IBR reflects the rate the Company would payto borrow, over a similar term and with similar security, an amount equal to the value of the right-of-useasset in a comparable economic environment. The determination of the IBR involves estimation whenobservable market rates are not available. The Company uses observable inputs where possible (suchas market interest rates) and applies entity-specific judgements, including the subsidiary’s standalonecredit rating, where required.
5. Capital work-in-progress (CWIP)
CWIP as at March 31, 2026, stood at ^ 137.88 Crore (previous year: ^ 59.59 Crore), which primarily includesoffice building under construction and plant and equipment under installation.
7.2 Fair value and valuation techniques:
As at March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the fair value of investment properties is ^ 93.44 Crore and ^ 72.57Crore, respectively. The fair valuation has been determined by management based on the Discounted CashFlow (“DCF”) method. The key inputs used in the valuation of investment properties are set out as below:
Under the DCF method, fair value is estimated using assumptions regarding the benefits and liabilities ofownership over the investment property life including an exit or terminal value. This method involves theprojection of a series of cash flows on a real property interest.

35.9 Quantitative sensitivity analysis for significant assumption and risk analysis:
Interest rate risk: The defined benefit obligation is determined using a discount rate based on market yieldson government bonds. A decrease in the discount rate would result in an increase in the present value of thedefined benefit obligation
Salary escalation risk: The present value of the defined benefit obligation is based on assumed future salaryincreases. An increase in the assumed salary escalation rate would lead to a higher liability.
Demographic risk: The valuation of the defined benefit obligation is based on assumptions such as mortalityand employee attrition. Adverse deviations in actual experience compared to these assumptions may resultin an increase in the liability.
The expected life of the stock options is based on the Company’s expectations and is not necessarily indicativeof exercise patterns that may actually occur. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historicalvolatility of the options is indicative of future trend, which may not necessarily be the actual outcome. Further,the expected volatility is based on the Company’s equity shares volatility for a period of 5 years upto grant dateof an option.

Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, FVTPL investmentsand derivative financial instruments.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2026, and March31, 2025.
a. Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuatedue to changes in market interest rates.
b. Foreign currency risk and sensitivity
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuatebecause of changes in foreign exchange rates.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter-party fails to meet its contractualobligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables)and from its financing activities. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum exposureto credit risk. The Company manages credit risk by monitoring the creditworthiness of customers, reviewingcontractual performance and ensuring timely collection in line with agreed terms.
a. Trade receivables
The Company’s exposure to trade receivables is limited due to diversified customer base. The Companyevaluates expected credit loss on trade receivables at each reporting date. The assessment is based onhistorical experience, credit profile of customers and current market conditions.
An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major customers.In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed forimpairment collectively.
b. Financial instruments
Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cashequivalents, term deposit with banks, loans given to subsidiaries and other financial assets. Investmentsof surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned.
The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk as at March 31, 2026, and as at March 31, 2025, is thecarrying value of each class of financial assets.
