A provision is recognised when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events andit is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation in respect of whicha reliable estimate can be made. Provisions (excluding retirement benefits) are not discounted to theirpresent value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at theBalance Sheet date. These are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the currentbest estimates.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will beconfirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond thecontrol of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognised because it is not probable that
an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises inextremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognised because it cannot be measuredreliably. The Company does not recognise a contingent liability but discloses its existence in thefinancial statements.
If the Company has a contract that is onerous, the present obligation under the contract is recognisedand measured as a provision. However, before a separate provision for an onerous contract is established,the Company recognises any impairment loss that has occurred on assets dedicated to that contract
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the company becomes a party to the contractualprovisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value with theexception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which thecompany has applied the practical expedient. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to theacquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financialliabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured oninitial recognition of financial asset or financial liability. Trade receivables that do not contain a significantfinancing component or for which the company has applied the practical expedient are measured at thetransaction price determined under Ind AS 115. Refer to the accounting policies in section (i) Revenuefrom contracts with customers.
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financialassets are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cashflows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise onspecified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principalamount outstanding.
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortizedcost or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transactioncosts directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value throughprofit or loss are immediately recognized in statement of profit and loss.
A 'debt instrument' is measured at the amortized cost if both the following conditions are met:
a) The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collectingcontractual cash flows, and
b) Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solelypayments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized costusing the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking intoaccount any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral partof the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The lossesarising from impairment are recognized in the profit or loss. This category generally appliesto trade and other receivables
Investment in subsidiaries and joint ventures are carried at cost. Impairment recognized, if any, isreduced from the carrying value.
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from thefinancial asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognitionunder Ind AS 109.
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value throughprofit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as payables, as appropriate. The company's financial liabilitiesinclude trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts. The subsequentmeasurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, which is described below.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading andfinancial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss. Financialliabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing inthe near term.
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest (‘EIR’)method. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized aswell as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into accountany discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. TheEIR amortization is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using EIRmethod. For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, thecarrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelledor expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender onsubstantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such anexchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognitionof a new liability The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statementof profit or loss.
In determining the fair value of its financial instruments, the Company uses following hierarchy andassumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each reporting date.
Fair value hierarchy:
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements arecategorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level inputthat is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fairvalue measurement is directly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fairvalue measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis,the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy byreassessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair valuemeasurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the Standalonebalance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and thereis an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
The company assesses at each date of balance sheet whether a financial asset or a group offinancial assets is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit losses to be measured through aloss allowance. The Company recognizes lifetime expected losses for all contract assets and /orall trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. For all other financial assets,expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit lossesor at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial assethas increased significantly since initial recognition.
The company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may beimpaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, thecompany estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized whereverthe carrying amount of an asset exceeds Its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is thegreater of the asset's net selling price and value in use. In Assessing value in use, the estimatedfuture cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflectscurrent market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Afterimpairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaininguseful life.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/(loss) for the year attributable to equityshareholders of parent by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit/(loss) for the year attributable to equityshareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earningsper share and the weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on theconversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decreasethe net profit per share from continuing ordinary operations. Potential dilutive equity shares are deemedto be converted as at the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. Thedilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the shares been actuallyissued at fair value (i.e. average market value of the outstanding shares). Dilutive potential equity sharesare determined independently for each period presented.
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into knownamounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturitiesof three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalentsconsist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.
s) Dividend
The Company recognises a liability to pay dividend to equity holders of the parent when the distributionis authorised, and the distribution is no longer at the discretion of the Company. As per the corporatelaws in India, a distribution is authorised when it is approved by the shareholders. A correspondingamount is recognised directly in equity.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principlesof Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reportedbalances of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosureof contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes thatrequire a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at thereporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amountsof assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The company based itsassumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared.Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due tomarket changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the company. Such changes arereflected in the assumptions when they occur
NRV for completed inventory property is assessed by reference to market conditions and prices existingat the reporting date and is determined by the company, based on comparable transactions identifiedby the company for properties in the same geographical market serving the same real estate segment.
NRV in respect of inventory property under construction is assessed with reference to market prices atthe reporting date for similar completed property, less estimated costs to complete construction and anestimate of the time value of money to the date of completion.
With respect to land advance given, the net recoverable value is based on the management's estimatesand internal documentation, which include, among other things, the likelihood when the land acquisitionwould be completed, the expected date of plan approvals for commencement of project, estimation of saleprices and construction costs and Company's business plans in respect of such planned developments.
a) Identification of performance obligation
Revenue consists of sale of undivided share of land and constructed area to the customer, whichhave been identified by the Company as a single performance obligation, as they are highlyinterrelated/ interdependent. In assessing whether performance obligations relating to sale ofundivided share of land and constructed area are highly interrelated/ interdependent, the Companyconsiders factors such as:
Ý Whether the customer could benefit from the undivided share of land or the constructed areaon its own or together with other resources readily available to the customer
Ý Whether the entity will be able to fulfil its promise under the contract to transfer the undividedshare of land without transfer of constructed area or transfer the constructed area withouttransfer of undivided share of land.
b) Timing of satisfaction of performance obligation
Revenue from sale of real estate units is recognised when (or as) control of such units is transferredto the customer.
For contracts where control is transferred at a point in time, the Company considers the followingindicators of the transfer of control of the asset to the customer:
When the entity obtains a present right to payment for the asset.
When the entity transfers legal title of the asset to the customer
When the entity transfers physical possession of the asset to the customer.
When the entity transfers significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to the customer.When the customer has accepted the asset.
c) Significant financing component
For contracts involving sale of real estate unit, the Company receives the consideration inaccordance with the terms of the contract in proportion of the percentage of completion of suchreal estate project and represents payments made by customers to secure performance obligationof the Company under the contract enforceable by customers. Such consideration is received andutilised for specific real estate projects in accordance with the requirements of the Real Estate(Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. Consequently, the Company has concluded that such
contracts with customers do not involve any financing element since the same arises for reasonsexplained above, which is other than for provision of finance to the customer.
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 DCF model. The inputs to these models are taken from observable marketswhere possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishingfair values. Judgements include considerations of inputs such as liquidity risk, credit risk andmarket risk. Changes in assumptions about these factors could affect the reported fair value offinancial instruments.
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amounts of each asset or CGU(in case of non-financial assets) based on expected future cash flows and uses an estimatedinterest rate to discount them. Estimation relates to assumptions about future cash flows and thedetermination of a suitable discount rate
Key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts, weighted-average loss rate and Project cashflows.Provisions and contingencies
The recognition and measurement of other provisions are based on the assessment of theprobability of an outflow of resources, and on past experience and circumstances known at thebalance sheet date. The actual outflow of resources at a future date may therefore vary from theamount included in other provisions
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with thosefollowed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2026,except for amendments to the existing Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS). The Company has not earlyadopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs notified new standards or amendment to existing standards underCompanies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time.
The Company applied following amendments for the first-time during the current year which are effectivefrom April 1, 2025:
The amendment requires the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to specify how an entityshould assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange ratewhen exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enablesusers of its financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the othercurrency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position andcash flows.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2025. Whenapplying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information.
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 to specify therequirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments clarify:
What is meant by a right to defer settlement
That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would theterms of a liability not impact its classification
In addition, a requirement has been introduced to require disclosure when a liability arising from aloan agreement is classified as non-current and the entity's right to defer settlement is contingent oncompliance with future covenants within twelve months.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2025retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8.
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements andrequire additional disclosure of such arrangements. The disclosure requirements in the amendmentsare intended to assist users of financial statements in understanding the effects of supplier financearrangements on an entity's liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 12 Income Taxes in response to the OECD'sBEPS Pillar Two rules and include:
A mandatory temporary exception to the recognition and disclosure of deferred taxes arising from thejurisdictional implementation of the Pillar Two model rules; and
Disclosure requirements for affected entities to help users of the financial statements better understandan entity's exposure to Pillar Two income taxes arising from that legislation, particularly before itseffective date.
The mandatory temporary exception - the use of which is required to be disclosed - applies immediately.The remaining disclosure requirements apply for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 1,2025, but not for any interim periods ending on or before March 31, 2026.
The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined thatthese amendments do not have a significant impact on the Company's Financial Statements.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), as part of India's continued convergence with IFRS, has initiatedthe process for introduction of Ind AS 118 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, whichis converged with IFRS 18 issued by the IASB in April 2024. Ind AS 118 is intended to replace Ind AS 1(Presentation of Financial Statements) and focuses on improving how entities present and communicatefinancial performance, particularly in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
This standard is proposed to be applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 1,2027, subject to final notification by the MCA through amendment to the Companies (Indian AccountingStandards) Rules.
The Ind AS 1 carve-out regarding the classification of liabilities when there is a breach of a materialcovenant that transforms the liability from non-current to current has been removed and hence whenan entity breaches any covenant of a long-term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reportingperiod with the effect that the liability becomes payable on demand, it classifies the liability as current,even if the lender agreed, after the reporting period and before the approval of the financial statementsfor issue, not to demand payment as a consequence of the breach. An entity classifies the liability ascurrent because, at the end of the reporting period, it does not have the right to defer its settlement forat least 12 months after that date.
However, an entity classifies the liability as non-current if the lender agreed by the end of the reportingperiod to provide a period of grace ending at least 12 months after the reporting period, within whichthe entity can rectify the breach and during which the lender cannot demand immediate repayment.

On 21 November 2025, the Central Government issued four separate notifications in the Official Gazette announcingimplementation of four Labour Codes, viz., the Code on Wages, 2019, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, theCode on Social Security, 2020 and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020. Thesefour codes replace and consolidate 29 existing labour laws. Following the implementation of the four labourcodes, the Central Government has pre-published the draft rules on 31 December 2025 under the respectiveLabour Codes, for public comment and the final rules are expected to be notified in due course. To ensure smoothimplementation, the Ministry of Labour and Employment has also issued the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)on the four codes.
The four codes prescribe an inclusive definition of the term 'wages', which among other matters is relevant fordetermination of post-employment benefits including gratuity to all employees. In accordance with the definition,certain specified items forming part of remuneration are not included in the wages and these excluded itemscannot exceed 50% of total remuneration. If there is an excess, then it is presumed that excess amount also formspart of wages. The four codes also introduce changes related to leave entitlement and encashment for workers.Going forward, workers' leave balance in excess of 30 days will be encashed at the end of each calendar year andworkers will have a right to demand encashment for entire leave.
