xvi. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent
assets

Provisions are recognized when the Company
has a present legal or constructive obligation as a
result of past events, it is probable that an outflow
of resources will be required to settle the obligation
and the amount can be reliably estimated. These
are reviewed at each reporting period and reflect
the best current estimate. Provisions are not
recognized for future operating losses.

Where there are a number of similar obligations,
the likelihood that an outflow will be required
in settlement is determined by considering the

class of obligations as a whole. A provision is
recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with
respect to any one item included in the same class
of obligations may be small.

The amount recognized as a provision is the best
estimate of the consideration required to settle the
present obligation at the end of the reporting period,
taking into account the risks and uncertainties
surrounding the obligation. When a provision is
measured using the cash flow estimated to settle
the present obligation, its carrying amount is the
present value of those cash flows.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is
a possible obligation arising from past events,
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 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.

Contingent assets are not recognized in the
financial statements unless it is virtually certain
that the future event will confirm the asset's
existence and the asset will be realized.

xvii. Employee benefits

(a) Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including
non-monetary benefits that are expected
to be settled wholly within 12 months after
the end of the period in which the employees
render the related service are recognized in
respect of employees' services up to the end
of the reporting period and are measured at
the amounts expected to be paid when the
liabilities are settled.

(b) Other long-term employee benefits

The liabilities for earned leave is not expected
to be settled wholly within 12 months after
the end of the period in which the employees
render the related service. They are therefore
measured as the present value of expected
future payments to be made in respect

of services provided by employees up to
the end of the reporting period using the
projected unit credit method. The benefits
are discounted using the market yields at the
end of the reporting period that have terms
approximating to the terms of the related
obligation. Remeasurements as a result of
experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognized in the
Statement of Profit and Loss.

The obligations are presented as current
liabilities in the Balance Sheet if the entity
does not have an unconditional right to defer
settlement for at least 12 months after the
reporting period, regardless of when the
actual settlement is expected to occur.

(c) Post-employment obligations

Defined benefit plans

The present value of the defined benefit
obligation is determined by discounting the
estimated future cash outflows by reference
to market yields at the end of the reporting
period on Government bonds that have terms
approximating to the terms of the related
obligation.

The net interest cost is calculated by
applying the discount rate to the net balance
of the defined benefit obligation and the fair
value of plan assets. This cost is included in
employee benefit expense in the Statement
of Profit and Loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising
from experience adjustments and changes in
actuarial assumptions are recognized in the
period in which they occur directly in Other
Comprehensive Income. They are included
in retained earnings in the Statement of
Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.

Changes in the present value of the defined
benefit obligation resulting from plan
amendments or curtailments are recognized
immediately in profit or loss as past service
cost.

Defined Contribution plan

The Company has no further payment
obligations once the contributions have
been paid. The contributions are accounted
for as defined contribution plans and the
contributions are recognized as employee
benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid
contributions are recognized as an asset to
the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in
the future payments is available.

(d) Share based payments

The fair value of options granted under
the Employee Option Plan is recognized
as an employee benefits expense with a
corresponding increase in equity. The total
amount to be expensed is determined by
reference to the fair value of the options
granted:

• including any market performance
conditions (e.g., the entity's share price)

• excluding the impact of any service
and non-market performance vesting
conditions (e.g. profitability, sales
growth targets and remaining an
employee of the entity over a specified
time period), and

• including the impact of any non-vesting
conditions (e.g. the requirement for
employees to save or holdings shares
for a specific period of time).

The total expense is recognized over the
vesting period, which is the period over which
all of the specified vesting conditions are to
be satisfied. At the end of each period, the
entity revises its estimates of the number
of options that are expected to vest based
on the non-market vesting and service
conditions. It recognizes the impact of the
revision to original estimates, if any, in profit
or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to
equity.

xx. Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect
method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for
the effects of transactions of non-cash nature
and any deferrals or accruals of past or future
cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the
Company are segregated based on the available
information.

xxi. Contributed equity

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.

xxii. Operating cycle

Based on the nature of products / activities of
the Company and the normal time between
acquisition of assets and their realization in cash
or cash equivalents, the Company has determined

its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose
of classification of its assets and liabilities as
current and non-current.

xxiii. Exceptional Item

Exceptional item include income or expense that
are considered to be part of ordinary activities,
however, are of such significance and nature
that separate disclosure enables the user of the
financial statements to understand the impact
in a more meaningful manner. Exceptional items
are identified by virtue of either their size or nature
so as to facilitate comparison with prior periods
and to assess underlying trends in the financial
performance of the Company.

xxiv. Rounding of amounts

All amounts disclosed in the financial statements
and notes have been rounded off to the nearest
crores as per the requirement of Schedule III,
unless otherwise stated.

Amounts recognized in the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss:

Inventory write downs are accounted, considering the nature of inventory, aging and net realizable value. Write down
of inventories amounted to ' 7.99 (March 31,2024: Write down of ' 4.33) were recognized as an expense during the
year and included in 'changes in value of inventories of finished goods, work-in-progress and stock-in-trade' in the
Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss.

The Company has recognized the deferred tax asset on unabsorbed depreciation and business losses of earlier
years, loss allowance on trade receivables and deposits and disallowances under Section 35DDA, 40(a)(i) and 43B
of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The Company has concluded that the deferred tax assets will be recoverable partially
compensated by decrease in deferred tax liabilities and excess will be recovered using estimated future taxable
income. Further, unabsorbed depreciation can be carried forward for infinite period as per tax regulations.

Note 37 - Fair value measurements

(i) Financial Instrument by category and hierarchy

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 were used to estimate the fair values:

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

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

- The interest rate on term deposits is at the prevailing market rates. Accordingly, fair value of such instrument
is not materially different from their carrying amounts.

- The interest rate on borrowing is at the prevailing market rates. Accordingly, fair value of such instruments
is not materially different from their carrying amounts.

For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair

values.

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments

by valuation technique:

Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using

valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-
specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is
included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is
included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities, contingent consideration and indemnification
asset included in level 3.

There were no transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3 during the year.

Difference between fair value of non-current financial instruments carried at amortized cost and carrying value is not
considered to be material to the financial statements.

(iii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

- the use of quoted market prices for quoted shares.

- the fair value of the other unquoted equity investments is mainly pertaining to investments in co-operative
banks which are carried at amortized cost and the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.

Note 39 - Financial risk management

The Company's business activities exposes it to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risk and
credit risk. The Company's senior management and key management personnel have the ultimate responsibility for
managing these risks. The Company has a mechanism to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to
set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and
systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities.

The Company's senior management and key management personnel are supported by the finance team and
respective business divisions that provides assurance that the Company's financial risk activities are governed by
appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance
with the Company's policies and risk objectives. The activities are designed to protect the Company's financial results
and position from financial risks; and maintain market risks within acceptable parameters, while optimizing returns.

(A) Management of liquidity risk

The principal sources of liquidity of the Company are cash and cash equivalents, borrowings and the cash
flow that is generated from operations. The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents, tied
up borrowing lines and cash flow that is generated from operations is sufficient to meet requirements. The
Company is cognizant of reputational risk that are associated with the liquidity risk and such risk is factored
into the overall business strategy. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, finance department
maintains flexibility in funding by having availability under committed credit lines.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing
facilities below) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.

* does not include interest payable in future years, since they are repayable on demand and contractual payment to be
made in respect of interest is not accurately determinable considering balances vary based on the fund requirements
of the Company.

(B) Management of market risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in
the price of a financial instrument.

The size and operations of the Company result in it being exposed to the price risk, interest rate risk and foreign
exchange risk that arise from its use of financial instruments.

The above risks may affect income and expenses, or the value of the financial instruments of the Company.
The objective of the Management of the Company for market risk is to maintain this risk within acceptable
parameters, while optimizing returns. The Company's exposure to and the management of these risks is
explained below:

i) Price risk

The Company is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its investments in equity instruments. The price risk
arises due to uncertainities about the future market values of these investments.

Equity price risk is related to the change in market reference price of the investments in equity securities. In
general, these securities are not held for trading purposes. These investments are subject to changes in the
market price of securities"

Any new investment or divestment must be approved by the Board of Directors and Chief Financial Officer.

a) Price risk sensitivity analysis

As an estimation of the approximate impact of price risk, with respect to investments in equity instruments, the
Company has calculated the impact as follows:

ii) 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 changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to risk of changes in market interest rate is limited
to borrowings which bear floating interest rate.

The Company's fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortized cost. They are therefore not subject to interest
rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate
because of a change in market interest rates.

The Company manages interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate borrowings. As
at March 31,2025, approximately 52.66% of the Company's borrowings is at variable rate of interest (March 31,
2024: 54.23%).

The exposure of the Company's borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period is as
follows:

b) Interest rate sensitivity

The exposure of the Company's borrowings to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are
included in the table below. As at the end of the reporting period, the Company had the following exposure on
variable rate borrowings outstanding. Sensitivity is calculated based on the assumption that amount outstanding
as at reporting dates were utilized for the whole financial year:

b) Foreign currency sensitivity

5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk and represents management's assessment
of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding
unhedged foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a
5% change in foreign currency rates. The following table demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible
change in exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company's profit before tax,
due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities, is as follows:

(C) Management of credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual
obligations.

The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities which primarily includes trade receivables,
security deposits, cash and cash equivalents, deposit with banks and other bank balances. Management has a
credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis.

Cash and cash equivalents, deposit with banks and other bank balances

Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalent, deposit with banks and other bank balances is managed by
accepting highly rated banks. Management does not expect any losses from non-performance by these
counterparties and the risk of default is negligible or nil.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets measured at amortized cost includes security deposits and other receivables. Credit risk
related to these assets are managed by monitoring the recoverability of such amounts continuously, while at the
same time the internal control system in place ensures that amounts are within defined limits. The Company
evaluates 12 months expected credit losses for all the financial assets (other than trade receivable) for which
credit risk has not increased. In case credit risk has increased significantly, the Company considers lifetime
expected credit losses for the purpose of provisioning (loss allowance).

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to
engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loans or receivables have been written off, the Company
continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are
made, these are recognized as income in the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss.

Trade receivables

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited, due to the customer base being large,
diverse and across sectors and countries. All trade receivables are reviewed and assessed for default on a
quarterly basis.

The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been
a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess whether there
is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of default occurring on asset as at the
reporting date with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition. It considers reasonable and supportive
forward-looking information.

The Company's assessment is that credit risk in relation to sales made to government customers or sub¬
contractors to government is extremely low as the probability of default is insignificant; therefore the provision
for expected credit losses (ECL) is immaterial in respect of receivables from these customers.

For all non-government customers, the Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected
credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix by taking into consideration payment
profiles over a period of 36 months before the reporting date and the corresponding historical credit loss
experience within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect the current and forward looking
information on macro economic factors affecting the ability of customers to settle receivables. The expected
credit loss is based on aging of days, the receivables due and the expected credit loss rate. Further, the Company
has assessed credit risk on an individual basis in respect of certain customers in case of event driven situation
such as litigations, disputes, change in customer's credit risk history, specific provision are made after evaluating
the relevant facts and expected recovery.

Note 40 - Capital management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to:

- safeguard Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and
benefits for other stakeholders; and

- maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. For achieving this, the
requirement of capital is reviewed periodically with reference to operating and business plans. Apart from internal
accrual, sourcing of capital is done through a judicious combination of equity and borrowing, both short term and
long term. Debt (total borrowings lease liabilities) to equity ratio is used to monitor capital.

(i) Compensated Absences

The employees of the Company are entitled to compensated absences as per the policy of the Company. The entire
amount of the provision of compensated absences is presented as current, since the Company does not have an
unconditional right to defer settlement for the obligation. However, based on past experience, the Company does
not expect all employees to take the full amount of accrued leave or require payment within the next 12 months.
The following amounts reflect leave that is not expected to be taken or paid within the next 12 months.

(ii) Post employment obligations

(a) Defined Contribution Plans

The Company contributes towards Employees State Insurance Scheme, Family Pension Fund, Superannuation
Fund and Provident Fund for certain employees. The contributions are normally based on a certain proportion of
the employee's salary. During the year, the Company has recognized contribution to these funds aggregating to
' 4.00 (March 31,2024: ' 4.43) (Refer Note 31).

(b) Defined Benefit Plans
Gratuity

The Company provides for gratuity as per the Company's scheme or Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 (last drawn
basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days multiplied by number of years of service) whichever
is more beneficial to the employees. As per the Company's scheme, the amount of gratuity payable on retirement
/ termination is payable to the employees based on last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately
for 30 / 15 / 30 days (for number of years of service tenure of less than 15 years, more than 15 years but less
than 30 years and more than 30 years, respectively). The benefits vest after five years of continuous service. The
Company has established Fund to which the Company makes contribution for the employees. The Company
does not fully fund the liability and maintains a target level of funding to be maintained over a period of time
based on estimations of expected gratuity payments.

The charge on account of provision for gratuity has been included in 'Employee Benefits Expense' in the
Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss except remeasurements i.e. actuarial gains and losses and the return
on plan assets, excluding amounts included in the net interest expense on the net defined benefit liability which
are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income.

Provident fund

In respect of certain employees, provident fund contributions are made to a separately administered trust. Such
contribution to the provident fund are charged to the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss. In case of any
liability arising due to shortfall between the return from its investments and the guaranteed specified interest
rate, the same is provided for by the Company. The actuary has provided an actuarial valuation and the interest
shortfall liability, if any, has been provided in the books of accounts after considering the assets available with
the provident fund trust.

(iv) Risk Exposure

Through its defined benefit plans, the Company is exposed to a number of risks, the most significant of which
are detailed below:

Demographic Risk: This is the risk of variability of results due to unsystematic nature of decrements that include
mortality, withdrawal, disability and retirement. The effect of these decrements on the defined benefit obligation
is not straight forward and depends upon the combination of salary increase, discount rate and vesting criteria.
It is important not to overstate withdrawals because in the financial analysis the retirement benefit of a short
career employee typically costs less per year as compared to a long service employee.

Asset Volatility: The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to bond yields; if plan
assets underperform this yield, this will create a deficit.

Salary Inflation Risk: Higher than expected increase in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.

Interest-Rate Risk: The defined benefit obligation calculated uses a discount rate based on government bonds.
If bond yields fall, the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.

(v) Defined Benefit Liability and Employer Contributions

Expected contributions to post-employment benefit plans for the year ending March 31,2026 are ' 2.10
The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 8 years (March 31, 2024: 7 years).
