(xiii) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events, for which it is
probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made where there
is a possible obligation that arises from past events and the existence of which will be confirmed only by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the
Company or a present obligation that arises from the past events where it is either not probable that an outflow
of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
Provisions are reviewed regularly and are adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimates of the
obligation. Where the Company expects a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a
separate asset, only when such reimbursement is virtually certain.

Contingent asset is not recognised in the standalone financial statements. However, it is recognised only when
an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

(xiv) Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs includes interest, amortisation of ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of
borrowings and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent they are regarded
as an adjustment to the interest cost.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily
takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of
the respective asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. The Company
ceases capitalising borrowing costs when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying
asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

(xv) Inventories

Inventories of stock-in-trade are valued at cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower. The cost is determined
on weighted average basis, and includes all costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location
and condition including non-recoverable taxes.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of
completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Further, inventory contains service spares which are used as replacement stocks by the Company for servicing
the customers repairs and maintenance requirements during the service period. Adequate allowances are
recognised as a measure of consumption over their expected life based on their usage.

Cost related to product and implementation contracts where performance obligation is not complete and
certain goods or service inventories transferred to customer premises as a part of contract, is recognised and
presented as “Inventory at customer site".

Cost of stores and spares includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their
present location and condition including non-recoverable taxes. The aforesaid items are valued at net realisable
value if the finished products in which they are to be incorporated are expected to be sold at a loss.

xvi) Income recognition

(a) Revenue recognition

When a performance obligation is satisfied, the Company recognises as revenue the amount of the
transaction price (which excludes estimates of variable consideration) that is allocated to that performance
obligation. Transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled
in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on
behalf of third parties.

Ind AS 115 specifies five step model for revenue recognition:

1. Identify the contract with a customer;

2. Identify the separate performance obligations in the contract;

3. Determine the transaction price;

4. Allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations; and

5. Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of
the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and
collectability of consideration is probable.

Revenue is recognised in the statement of profit and loss with the contracted price showing separately
each of the adjustments made to the contract price and specifying the nature and amount of each such
adjustment separately.

Sale of products

Revenue from sale of products, including leasing of specific inventory item, is recognised when control of
the product is transferred to the buyer and performance obligation is satisfied, which generally coincides
with acknowledgement of delivery pending which the sale is disclosed as “Contract liabilities”. The Company
collects goods and services tax ('GST') and other indirect taxes on behalf of the government and, therefore,
these are not economic benefits flowing to the Company and are accordingly excluded from the revenue.

Sale of services

1. Revenue from implementation services (including installation and commissioning) related to products
supplied or on a standalone basis are recognised when services are rendered, as the performance
obligations are met.

2. Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognised based on time elapsed and revenue is straight
lined over the period of the performance or on the performance of services as specified in the contract.
This method of revenue recognition provides a faithful depiction of transfer of services.

3. Service income of a periodic nature which is billed but has not accrued during the year is disclosed as
“Contract liabilities”.

4. The Company collects GST and other indirect taxes on behalf of the government and therefore, these
are not economic benefits flowing to the Company and are accordingly excluded from the revenue.

Any modification or change in existing performance obligations is assessed whether the services is added
to the existing contracts or not. The distinct services are accounted for as a new contract and services which
are not distinct are accounted for on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Cost to fulfil the contracts

Recurring operating costs for contracts with customers are recognised as incurred. Revenue recognition
excludes any government taxes but includes reimbursement of out of pocket expenses. Provision towards
onerous contracts are recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a
contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting the future obligations under the contract. The
provision is measured at present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and
the expected net cost of continuing with the contract.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract

The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are those costs that an entity incurs to obtain a contract with
a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. For certain contracts,
Company does incur insignificant incremental costs to obtain the contract. Company applies practical
expedient by recognising such cost as expense, when incurred, in the standalone statement of profit and
loss instead of creating an asset as the amortisation period of the asset that the Company otherwise would
have recognised is one year or less.

Significant financing component

Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether a contract contains a
financing component and whether that financing component is significant to the contract, including both
the conditions:

(a) the difference, if any, between the amount of promised consideration and the cash selling price of the
promised goods or services; and

(b) the combined effect of both the following conditions:

(i) the expected length of time between when the entity transfers the promised goods or services
to the customer and when the customer pays for those goods or services; and

(ii) the prevailing interest rates in the relevant market.

(b) Other operating revenue

It includes revenue arising from the reversal of operating liabilities / provisions no longer required or revenue
arising from Company's ancillary revenue-generating activities. Revenue from these activities are recorded
only when Company is reasonably certain of such income.

(c) Other income

Other income majorly comprises interest income which is recognised using the effective interest method
and on time proportion basis.

(d) Trade receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities

Trade Receivable, net is primarily comprised of billed and unbilled receivables (i.e. only the passage of time
is required before payment is due) for which the Company has an unconditional right to consideration, net
of an allowance for doubtful accounts. A contract assets arise when the Company has transferred services
to the customer (i.e., performance obligation is satisfied), but the right to consideration is conditional on
something other than the passage of time (e.g., pending billing milestone or scheduled invoicing). Contract
liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenues recognised. The difference between
opening and closing balance of the contract assets and liabilities results from the timing differences
between the performance obligation and customer payment.

(xvii) Income tax

Tax expense for the year comprises of current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is measured by the amount
of tax expected to be paid to the taxation authorities on the taxable profits after considering tax allowances
and exemptions and using applicable tax rates and laws. Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences
between the accounting base and the tax base for the year and quantified using the tax rates and tax laws
enacted or substantively enacted as on the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised
for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and
their carrying amount in standalone financial statements, except when the deferred tax arises from the initial
recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects
neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which
the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can
be utilised. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences.

Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off
the recognised amount and there is an intention to settle the asset and liability on a net basis.

(xviii) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity
shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to
equity shareholders of the Company and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period,
are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

(xix) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, balance with banks in current account and deposits, together
with other short-term, highly liquid investments (original maturity less than three months) that are readily
convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(xx) Equity shares

Equity shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options
are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

(xxi) Service charges

Service charges comprise of cost for back to back implementation services / installation and commissioning
related to products supplied at customer location. Cost is recognised when services are received / commissioned
or on completion of performance obligation.

Further, cost towards maintenance contracts is recognised based on receipt / delivery of services under the
contract. It includes charges paid / payable to vendors towards annual maintenance contracts / warranty
contracts / software support charges / engineers posted at customer sites.

(xxii) Events after the reporting date

If the Company receives information after the reporting period, but prior to the date when the financial statements
are approved for issue, about conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, it will assess whether
the information affects the amounts that it recognises in its standalone financial statements. The Company will
adjust the amounts recognised in its standalone financial statements to reflect any adjusting events after the
reporting period and update the disclosures that relate to those conditions in light of the new information. For
non-adjusting events after the reporting period, the Company will not change the amounts recognised in its
standalone 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 be made, if applicable.

(xxiii) Recent accounting pronouncements

There are no standards of accounting or any addendum thereto, prescribed by Ministry of Corporate Affairs
under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, which are issued but are not yet effective as at 31 March 2025.

Section 129(3) of the Act requires preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company and of
all the subsidiaries including associate company and joint venture businesses in the same form and manner as that
of its own. Ind AS 28 defines Associate as an entity over which the investor has significant influence. It mentions that
if an entity holds, directly or indirectly through intermediaries, 20% or more of the voting power of the enterprise, it
is presumed that the entity has significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case.
Also, the fact that an investor does not have significant influence in an enterprise can be demonstrated through
following conditions:

(i) The investor does not have any representation on the board of directors or corresponding governing body of
the investee.

(ii) The investor does not participate in policy making process.

(iii) The investor does not have any material transactions with the investee.

(iv) The investor does not interchange any managerial personnel.

(v) The investor does not provide any essential technical information to the investee.

Investments in subsidiaries and associates are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an
indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately
to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries and associates, the difference between net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognised in the standalone statement of profit and loss.

at 15 days of last drawn salary for each completed year of service. This defined benefit plan is governed by The
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.

The following tables summarise the components of employee benefits expense recognised in the standalone
statement of profit and loss and the amounts recognised in the standalone balance sheet for the gratuity plan.

33 Employees stock option plan

The Company provides share based payment schemes to its employees. Since the year ended 31 March 2016, an employee
stock option plan ('ESOP') was in existence i.e. ESOP scheme 2015. The relevant details of the scheme (post sub-division
of its equity share of ' 10 each into equity share of ' 2 each) and the grant are as below.

The shareholders of the Company through postal ballot on 21 April 2015 approved the equity settled ESOP scheme
2015 for issue of stock options to key employees and directors of the Company setting aside 7,116,615 options under
this scheme. The Company had previously granted 5,024,330, 1,601,240, 853,995 and 315,000 stock options on
14 May 2015, 19 May 2016, 15 June 2018 and 19 October 2020, respectively. According to the scheme, the employees
selected by the Nomination and Remuneration Committee from time to time will be entitled to options, subject to
satisfaction of the prescribed vesting conditions. The other relevant terms of the grants are as below:

Volatility : Volatility is a measure of the amount by which a price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate during the
period. The measure of volatility used in Black-Scholes-Merton formula is the annualised standard deviation of the
continuously compounded rates of return on the stock over a period of time. Company considered the daily historical
volatility of Company's stock price on NSE over a period prior to the date of grant, corresponding with the expected life
of the options.

Risk free rate : The risk free rate being considered for the calculation is the interest rate applicable for a maturity equal
to the expected life of the options based on zero coupon yield curve for government securities.

Expected life of the options : Expected life of the options is the period for which the Company expects the options to
be live. The minimum life of stock options is the minimum period before which the options cannot be exercised and
the maximum life of the option is the maximum period after which the options cannot be exercised. The Company has
calculated expected life as the average of the minimum and the maximum life of the options.

Dividend yield: Expected dividend yield has been calculated by dividing the last declared dividend per share by the
market price per share as on the date of grant.

34 Segment information

The Company has presented data related to its segments in its consolidated financial statements. No disclosures regarding
segments are therefore presented in these standalone financial statements.

believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial position and results of operations and hence no provision has been made in this regard.

2. It is not practicable for the Company to estimate the timings of cash outflows, if any, in respect of the above, pending
resolution of the respective proceedings.

3. The amounts disclosed above represent the best possible estimates arrived at on the basis of available information
and do not include any penalty payable.

4. The Company does not expect any reimbursements in respect of the above contingent liabilities.

5. Refer note 46 for penalty unascertained on account of non-compliance with provisions of Foreign Exchange
Management Act, 1999.

* Amount outstanding as at balance sheet date represents gross demand raised by the tax authorities, as amount paid under protest is
not charged to the standalone statement of profit and loss by the Company

Footnotes:

(a) It represents demand raised by vendor for remaining outstanding amount which is disputed by Company over non¬
performance of certain duties by vendor under the contract.

(b) It represents demands raised by direct and indirect tax authorities on various grounds, which are contested by
the Company.

(c) It represents demand raised by sales tax authorities for non submission of Form F.

(B) Capital commitments

Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for is ' 0.05 Crores
(31 March 2024: ' Nil).

For lease commitment, refer note 40

b) Fair value hierarchy and method of valuation

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by
valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
(i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on
observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There have been no transfer amongst the levels of fair value hierarchy during the year.

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the standalone financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company
determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on
the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following
methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values:

1. Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables,
trade payables, other current financial assets/ liabilities and short term borrowings approximate their carrying
amounts largely due to short term maturities of these instruments.

2. Financial instruments are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as individual credit worthiness
of the counter-party. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for expected losses on these
receivables. Accordingly, fair value of such instruments is not materially different from their carrying amounts.

3. The fair values for lease contracts were calculated based on cash flows discounted using market interest rate on
the date of initial recognition and fair values for deposits were calculated based on cash flows discounted using
market interest rate on the date of initial recognition and subsequently on each reporting date. The lease liability
is initially recognised at the present value of the future lease payments and is discounted using the interest rate
implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates and subsequently
measured at amortised cost.

4. Fair value of long term borrowings approximate their carrying amounts due to the fact that no upfront fees is
paid as compensation to secure the borrowing and the interest rate is equal to the market interest rate.

38.2 Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's
primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimise potential adverse effects on its
financial performance. The Company's management oversees these risks and formulates the policies which are reviewed
and approved by the Board of Directors and Audit Committee. Such risks are summarised below:

a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change
in market prices. The primary market risk to the Company is currency risk and interest risk.

Interest risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates
primarily to the Company's debt obligations.

Foreign currency risk

The Company's exposure to risk of change in foreign currency exchange rates arising from foreign currency transactions,
is primarily with respect to the currencies where the exchange rates are not fixed. Foreign exchange risk arises from
future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the functional
currency of the Company. The Company procures/ sell goods and services in their functional currency and in case of
imports/ exports, it primarily deals in United States Dollars ('USD') and Great Britain Pound ('GBP').

The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows established
risk management policies. There are earnings from customers in foreign currency which act as a natural hedge against
foreign currency risk.

b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails
to meet its contractual obligations, and arises from cash and cash equivalents, bank balances other than cash and
cash equivalents, other financial assets as well as credit exposures to customers including outstanding receivables
and contract assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial assets.

Trade receivables and contract assets

The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. To
manage this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial
condition, current economic trends, forward looking macroeconomic information, analysis of historical bad debts
and ageing of accounts receivables. Individual risk limits are set accordingly. The Company's exposure to credit
risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer
including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates also has an influence on credit
risk assessment.

The expected credit loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before the
reporting date and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates
are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macro-economic factors affecting the ability of
the customers to settle the receivables. The Company recognises lifetime expected losses for all trade receivables
and contract assets that do not constitute a financing component.

The Company has no concentration of credit risk as the customer base is widely distributed both economically and
geographically. There is one customer contributing 18% of outstanding trade receivables and contract assets as at
31 March 2025 (31 March 2024: 13%), however it is a reputed organisation and credit risk is minimal with no history
of dispute/ non-recovery.

Outstanding customer receivables and contract assets are regularly monitored.

Other financial assets

The Company periodically monitors the recoverability and credit risks of its other financial assets. The Company
evaluates 12 months expected credit losses for all the financial assets for which credit risk has not increased
significantly. In case credit risk has increased significantly, the Company considers life time expected credit losses
for the purpose of impairment provisioning.

The Company has considered financial condition, current economic trends, forward looking macroeconomic
information, analysis of historical bad or doubtful receivables and ageing of receivables related to cash and cash
equivalents, bank balances other than cash and cash equivalents, margin deposits, security deposits, finance lease
assets and other financial assets. In most of the cases, risk is considered low since the counterparties are reputed
organisations with no history of default to the Company and no unfavourable forward looking macro economic
factors. Wherever applicable, expected credit loss allowance is recorded (refer notes 7, 8 and 12).

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The
Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet
its liabilities when due. Also, the Company has unutilized credit limits with banks. The Company manages its liquidity
needs by monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for financial liabilities as well as forecast cash inflow and
outflows due in day to day business. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior
management. The Company's management monitors the net liquidation position through rolling forecast on the
basis of expected cash flows.

40 Leases

The disclosures required in accordance with Ind AS 116 "Leases" are as follows:

a) The Company's leased assets primarily consist of leases for office premises, furniture, computer and servers
having different lease terms. There are several lease agreements with extension and termination options, for
which management exercises significant judgement in determining whether these extension and termination
options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Since it is reasonably certain to exercise extension option and not
to exercise termination option, the Company has opted to include such extended term and ignore termination
option in determination of lease term. Further, Company is not exposed to any variable lease payments or residual
value guarantee.

e) The Company has entered into finance leases on its office premise. These leases have term of ten years. The lease
contract includes a clause to enable upward revision of the rental charge on an annual basis according to prevailing
market conditions. Rental income (including unwinding of interest) recognised by the Company during the year is
' 2.01 Crores (31 March 2024: ' 2.25 Crores). Further, wherever applicable, lessee is reasonably certain to exercise
extension option and not to exercise termination option, hence the Company has opted to include such extended
term and ignore termination option in determination of lease term. Further, Company has not retained any right in
underlying asset.

a) Performance obligations:

The performance obligation of Company is satisfied at a point in time or over the period of time depending on the

nature of products and services provided.

1) Revenue from sale of products: It includes unified and voice communication solutions, IP Phones, data products,
video conferencing products and cyber security solutions. Revenue is recognised at a point in time, which is
generally on the delivery of product (performance obligation is satisfied).

2) Revenue from implementation contracts: It includes implementation services on products (including
installation and commissioning). Revenue is recognised in the accounting period in which services are rendered,
as the performance obligations are met.

3) Revenue from maintenance contracts: Revenue from fixed maintenance contracts is recognised based on time
elapsed and revenue is straight lined over the period of the performance.

43 As per Ind AS 12 "Income Taxes", a deferred tax asset ('DTA') shall be recognised for the carry forward of unused
tax loss, unused tax credits and taxable timing differences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profit will
be available against which the unused tax loss, unused tax credits and taxable timing differences can be utilised.
Accordingly, DTA has been recognised only to the extent of deferred tax liability.

44 As per the transfer pricing rules, the Company has examined international transactions and documentation in respect
thereof to ensure compliance with the said rules. The management does not anticipate any material adjustments
with regard to the transactions involved, other than those already adjusted in the standalone financial statements,
if any.

45 Corporate social responsibility ('CSR')

As per section 135 of the Act, and rules therein, the Company is required to spend at least 2% of its average net
profits for three immediately preceding financial years towards CSR activities. The Company has CSR committee

The Company's spend towards CSR does not involve any long term projects and accordingly, disclosure requirements
relating to ongoing projects is not applicable as at reporting dates.

46 The Company has foreign currency trade payables and other payables amounting to ' 3.13 Crores and ' Nil (31 March
2024: ' 3.02 crores and ' 0.07 crores) as on 31 March 2025, which are due for a period more than six months as on
31 March 2025, and includes balance payable amounting to ' 2.00 crores (31 March 2024: ' 1.55 crores), which are
outstanding for more than three years as on that date. Also, the Company has foreign currency trade receivables and
other financial assets amounting to ' 3.24 crores and ' 2.41 crores (31 March 2024: ' 3.48 crores and ' 13.06 crores)
respectively as on 31 March 2025, which are due for more than nine months as on 31 March 2025, and includes
balance receivable amounting to ' 2.99 crores (31 March 2024: ' 4.15 crores) which are outstanding for more than
three years as on that date.

The delay in remittances / collections beyond the timeline stipulated under the circulars, directions issued under
the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999, as amended from time to time (collectively referred as 'the FEMA
Regulations') has resulted in non-compliances, however, the Company has filed necessary application with the
Authorised Dealer Category - I bank ('AD Bank') for extension of time limit and condonation of delay on payables
aggregating to ' 2.86 crores during the current year and on payables aggregating to ' 0.16 crores subsequent to
year end. For the residual payables amounting to ' 0.11 crores where extension has not been filed management is
in the process of approaching the Reserve Bank of India through AD Bank for write back.

Similarly, during the current year the Company has filed an application with its AD Bank for extension of time limit
and condonation of delay for the aforementioned receivables aggregating to ' 5.49 crores during the current year and
for ' 0.16 crores subsequent to year end. The Company is awaiting approval from the AD Bank for these applications
filed. Pending conclusion of the aforesaid matter, the management of the Company believes no material penalties/
fines could be levied on account of such non-compliances and accordingly the Company have not accounted for
penalties and fines, if any in the Standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
