A provision is recognised when the Company has a presentobligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event,and is probable that an outflow of resources embodyingeconomic benefits will be required to settle the obligationand a reliable estimate can be made of the amount ofthe obligation.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to bereimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separateasset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain.The expense relating to a provision is presented in theStatement of Profit and Loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisionsare discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects,when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Whendiscounting is used, the increase in the provision due tothe passage of time is recognised as a finance cost in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arisesfrom past events whose existence will be confirmed by theoccurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertainfuture events beyond the control of the Company or a presentobligation that is not recognized because it is not probablethat an outflow of resources will be required to settle theobligation. A contingent liability also arises where thereis a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannotbe measured reliably. The Company does not recognize
a contingent liability but discloses its existence in thefinancial statements.
Contingent assets are not recognised in financial statements,unless they are virtually certain. However, contingent assetsare disclosed where inflow of economic benefits are probable.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets arereviewed at each balance sheet date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell anasset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transactionbetween market participants at the measurement date. Thefair value measurement is based on the presumption thatthe transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takesplace either:
• In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
• In the absence of a principal market, in the mostadvantageous market for the asset or liability
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriatein the circumstances and for which sufficient data areavailable to measure fair value, maximizing the use ofrelevant observable inputs and minimizing the use ofunobservable inputs.
• Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in activemarkets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest levelinput that is significant to the fair value measurement isdirectly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest levelinput that is significant to the fair value measurementis unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financialstatements on a recurring basis, the Company determineswhether transfers have occurred between levels in thehierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowestlevel input that is significant to the fair value measurement asa whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company hasdetermined classes of assets and liabilities based on thenature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability andthe level of the fair value hierarchy.
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to afinancial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equityinstrument of another entity.
• initial recognition and measurement
Financial instruments are initially recognised when theentity becomes party to the contract.
Financial instruments are measured initially at fairvalue adjusted for transaction costs that are directlyattributable to the origination of the financial instrumentwhere financial instruments not classified at fair valuethrough profit or loss. Transaction costs of financialinstruments which are classified as fair value throughprofit or loss are expensed in the Statement of Profitand Loss.
• Subsequent measurement of financialassets
For the purposes of subsequent measurement, thefinancial assets are classified in the following categoriesbased on the Company’s business model for managingthe financial assets and the contractual terms ofcash flows:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value;either through OCI or through profit or loss
• those measured at amortised cost
For assets measured at fair value, changes in fair valuewill either be recorded in the Statement of Profit andLoss or OCI. For investments in debt instruments, thiswill depend on the business model in which investmentis held. For investments in equity instruments, thiswill depend on whether the Company has made anirrevocable election at the time of initial recognition toaccount for equity investment at fair value through OCI.
The Company reclassifies debt investments whenand only when its business model for managing thoseassets changes.
Debt instruments at amortised cost
A ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortised cost ifboth the following conditions are satisfied:
• The asset is held within a business model whoseobjective is to hold assets for collecting contractualcash flows, and
• The contractual terms of the asset give rise onspecified dates to cash flows that are SolelyPayments of Principal and Interest (SPPI) on theprincipal amount outstanding.
A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequentlymeasured at amortised cost and is not part of hedgingrelationship is recognised in the Statement of Profitand Loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired.Interest income from these financial assets is includedin finance income using Effective Interest Rate(EIR) method.
Equity investments
All equity investments in the scope of Ind AS 109Financial Instruments are measured at fair value.Equity instruments which are held for trading areclassified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments,the Company may make an irrevocable election torecognise subsequent changes in the fair value in OCI.The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made oninitial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrumentas at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on theinstrument, excluding dividends, are recognized inOCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCIto the Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale ofequity instrument.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL categoryare measured at fair value with all changes recognisedin the Statement of Profit and Loss.
• Subsequent measurement of financialliabilities
For the purposes of subsequent measurement,the financial liabilities are classified in thefollowing categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair valuethrough profit or loss (FVTPL)
Following financial liabilities will be classifiedunder FVTPL:
• Financial liabilities held for trading
• Derivative financial liabilities
• Liability designated to be measured under FVTPL
All other financial liabilities are classified atamortised cost.
For financial liabilities measured at fair value, changesin fair value will recorded in the Statement of Profit andLoss except for the fair value changes on account ofown credit risk are recognised in Other ComprehensiveIncome (OCI).
Interest expense on financial liabilities classified underamortised cost category are measured using EffectiveInterest Rate (EIR) method and are recognised inStatement of Profit and Loss.
• Derecognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognises a financial asset when thecontractual rights to the cash flows from the financialasset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive thecontractual cash flows in a transaction in whichsubstantially all of the risks and rewards of ownershipof the financial asset are transferred or in which theCompany neither transfers nor retain substantially all ofthe risks and rewards of ownership and does not retaincontrol of the financial asset.
Financial liability is derecognised when the obligationunder the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.When an existing financial liability is replaced by anotherfrom the same lender on substantially different terms,or the terms of an existing liability are substantiallymodified, such an exchange or modification is treatedas the derecognition of the original liability and therecognition of a new liability. The difference in therespective carrying amounts is recognised in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
• impairment of financial assets
The Company applies Expected Credit Loss (ECL) modelfor measurement and recognition of impairment loss onthe financial assets mentioned below:
• Financial assets that are debt instrument and aremeasured at amortised cost
• Financial assets that are debt instruments and aremeasured as at FVOCI
• Trade receivables
The impairment methodology applied depends onwhether there has been a significant increase in creditrisk. Details how the Company determines whether therehas been a significant increase in credit risk is explainedin the respective notes.
For impairment of trade receivables, the Companychooses to apply practical expedient of providingexpected credit loss based on provision matrix and doesnot require the Company to track changes in credit risk.Percentage of ECL under provision matrix is determinedbased on historical data as well as futuristic information.
• Derivative financial instruments
initial measurement and subsequent measurement
The Company uses derivative financial instruments,such as forward currency contracts to hedge foreigncurrency risks. Such derivative financial instrumentsare initially recognised at fair value on the date on whicha derivative contract is entered into and are subsequentlyre-measured at fair value. Derivatives are carried asfinancial assets when the fair value is positive and asfinancial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Anygains or losses arising from changes in the fair value ofderivatives are recognised in the Statement of Profitand Loss.
The final dividend on shares is recorded as liability on thedate of approval of shareholders, and the interim dividendsare recorded as liability on the date of declaration by theCompany’s Board of Directors.
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the yearattributable to equity holders of the Company by the weightedaverage number of equity shares outstanding during thefinancial year, adjusted for bonus elements in equity sharesissued during the year and excluding treasury shares.
Diluted EPS adjust the figures used in the determination ofbasic EPS to consider
• The after-income tax effect of interest and otherfinancing costs associated with dilutive potential equityshares, and
• The weighted average number of additional equityshares that would have been outstanding assuming theconversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistentwith the internal reporting provided to the Chief OperatingDecision-Maker (CODM). The CODM, who is responsiblefor allocating resources and assessing performance of theoperating segments, has been identified as the ManagingDirector who makes strategic decisions.
identification of Segments
Grants from the government are recognised at their fairvalue where there is a reasonable assurance that the grantwill be received and the Company will comply with allattached conditions.
Government grants relating to income are deferred andrecognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over theperiod necessary to match them with the costs that they areintended to compensate and presented within other income.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformitywith Ind AS, requires the management to make judgments,estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts ofrevenue, expenses, current assets, non-current assets,current liabilities, non-current liabilities, disclosure of thecontingent liabilities and notes to accounts at the endof each reporting period. Actual results may differ fromthese estimates.
In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies,management have made the following judgements, whichhave the most significant effect on the amounts recognisedin the financial statements:
Ind AS 108 Operating Segments requires Managementto determine the reportable segments for the purpose ofdisclosure in financial statements based on the internalreporting reviewed by the Managing Director being the ChiefOperating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance andallocate resources. The standard also requires Managementto make judgments with respect to recognition of segments.Accordingly, the Company recognizes Iron Castings, Tubeand Steel Segment as its three segments.
The Company has received various orders and notices fromdifferent Government authorities and tax authorities inrespect of direct taxes and indirect taxes. The outcome ofthese matters may have a material effect on the financialposition, results of operations or cash flows. Managementregularly analyses current information about these mattersand discloses the information relating to contingent liability.In making the decision regarding the need for creating lossprovision, management considers the degree of probabilityof an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make asufficiently reliable estimate of the amount of loss. Thefiling of a suit or formal assertion of a claim against theCompany or the disclosure of any such suit or assertions,does not automatically indicate that a provision of a loss maybe appropriate.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other keysources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, thathave a significant risk of causing a material adjustment tothe carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the nextfinancial year, are described below. The Company based itsestimates and assumptions on parameters available when thefinancial statements are prepared. Existing circumstancesand assumptions about future developments, however, maychange due to market conditions or circumstances arisingthat are beyond the control of the Company. Such changesare reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The cost of the defined benefit plans and other post¬employment benefits and the present value of the obligationsare determined using actuarial valuation. An actuarialvaluation involves making various assumptions that maydiffer from actual developments in the future. These include
the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases,mortality rates and future post-retirement medical benefitincrease. Due to the complexities involved in the valuationand its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highlysensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptionsare reviewed at each reporting date.
The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate.In determining the appropriate discount rate, managementconsiders the interest rates of government bonds incurrencies consistent with the currencies of the post¬employment benefit obligations and extrapolated as neededalong the yield curve to correspond with the expected term ofthe defined benefit obligation.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortalitytables. Those mortality tables tend to change only atintervals in response to demographic changes. Future salaryincreases are based on the expected future inflation rates forthe country.
Further details about defined benefit obligations are providedin the respective note.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductibletemporary differences including the carry forward of unusedtax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets arerecognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profitwill be available against which the deductible temporarydifferences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits areunused tax losses can be utilized.
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment are dependentupon an assessment of both the technical lives of theassets and also their likely economic lives based on variousinternal and external factors including relative efficiency andoperating costs. The depreciable lives are reviewed annuallyusing the best information available to the Management.
Estimation and underlying assumptions are reviewedon ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates arerecognised prospectively.

The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted EPS computations:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in marketprices. Market risk comprises three types of risk interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk such as equity price risk andcommodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include borrowings, trade and other payables, foreign exchangeforward contracts, security deposit, trade and other receivables, deposits with banks.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at reporting dates. The sensitivity of the relevant incomestatement item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. The analyses exclude the impact of movements inmarket variables on the carrying values of gratuity and other post retirement obligations and provisions.
The Company's activities expose it to variety of market risks, including effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rate, interestrate and commodity price.
a. interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changesin market interest rates. At the reporting date the interest rate profile of the Companie's interest bearing financial instrumentsare follows:
b. Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changesin foreign exchange rate. The Company transacts business in its functional currency and in different foreign currencies. TheCompanie’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Companie’s operating activities,where revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency. The Company manages its foreign currency risk by hedgingforeign currency payables using foreign currency forward contracts. It negotiates the terms of those foreign currency forwardcontracts to match the terms of the hedged exposure.
a. Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by the Company’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit riskmanagement. Credit exposure risk is mainly influenced by class or type of customers, depending upon their characteristics.Credit risk is managed through credit approval process by establishing credit limits along with continuous monitoring of creditworthiness of customers to whom credit terms are granted. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored.
An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on an individual basis for major clients. In addition, a large numberof minor receivables are combined into homogenous category and assessed for impairment collectively. The calculation isbased on actual incurred historical data as well as futuristic information. The Company uses expected credit loss model toassess the impairment loss. The Company uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for tradereceivables. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors.
c. Commodity price risk
Commodity price risk is a financial risk on the company’s financial performance which is affected by the fluctuating prices onaccount of global and regional supply/demand. Fluctuations in the prices of commodities mainly depend on market conditions.The company is subject to fluctuations in prices for the purchase of metallurgical coke, coking coal and iron ore which are themajor input materials for production of pig iron.
The company has an elaborate control procedure for finalising the prices of commodities through approval process fromdesignated Company officials. Every month the price trend of the materials, demand and supply position and marketintelligence report are reviewed and strategy is adopted before finalising the next consignment/quantities for subsequentmonths. The Commodity Price Risk is managed without any hedging of the commodities.
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to afinancial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities such as primarily trade receivables and from itsinvesting activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, cash and cash equivalent and other financial instruments.
b. Financial instruments and cash deposits
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Companie’s treasury department inaccordance with the Companie’s policy.

Asset liability matching strategy
The Company has purchased insurance policy, which is basically a year-on-year cash accumulation plan in which the interestrate is declared on yearly basis and is guaranteed for a period of one year. The Insurance company, as a part of policy rules makespayment of all gratuity payouts during the year as per policy conditions. The policy, thus, mitigates the liquidity risk. However,being a cash accumulation plan, the duration of assets is shorter compared to the duration of liabilities. Thus, the Company isexposed to movement in interest rate (in particular, the significant fall in interest rates, which should result in a increase in liabilitywithout corresponding increase in the asset).
The Company has introduced employee stock option scheme. This employee equity-settled compensation scheme is known asKFIL Employee Stock Option Scheme 2017 (“KFIL ESOS 2017/Scheme”).

In August 2025, MCA notified the following amendments to:
Ind AS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements
The amendment relates to classification of liabilities as current or non-current and non-current liabilities with covenants. In the contextof classifying a liability as current, it removes the requirement of existence of a right to defer settlement for at least 12 months afterthe reporting date and instead requires that the said right should exist on the reporting date and have substance. The amendment alsointroduces guidance on classification of liabilities with covenants. The Company has no impact on these amendments in its classificationcriteria of current and non-current liabilities.
Ind AS 7 - Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107
