A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event,the Company has a present legal or constructiveobligation that can be estimated reliably, and it isprobable that an outflow of economic benefits willbe required to settle the obligation. Provisions aredetermined by discounting the expected futurecash flows (representing the best estimate of theexpenditure required to settle the present obligationat the balance sheet date) at a pre-tax rate thatreflects current market assessments of the timevalue of money and the risks specific to the liability.The unwinding of the discount is recognised asfinance cost. Expected future operating losses arenot provided for.
Decommissioning liability
Decommissioning costs are provided at the presentvalue of expected costs to settle the obligation usingestimated cash flows and are recognised as part ofthe cost of the particular asset. The cash flows arediscounted at a current pre-tax rate that reflects therisks specific to the decommissioning liability. The
unwinding of the discount is expensed as incurredand recognised in the statement of profit andloss as a finance cost. The estimated future costsof decommissioning are reviewed annually andadjusted as appropriate. Changes in the estimatedfuture costs or in the discount rate applied are addedto or deducted from the cost of the asset.
Contingencies
Provision in respect of loss contingencies relating toclaims, litigation, assessment, fines, penalties, etc.are recognized when it is probable that a liability hasbeen incurred, and the amount can be estimatedreliably.
Operating segments are defined as componentsof an entity where discrete financial information isevaluated regularly by the chief operating decisionmarket (“CODM”) in deciding allocation of resourcesand in assessing performance. The Board of Director’sis its CODM. The Company’s CODM reviews financialinformation presented on a consolidated basis for thepurposes of making operating decisions, allocatingresources, and evaluating financial performance. Assuch, the Company has determined that it operatesin one operating and reportable segment.
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit are measured on anundiscounted basis and are expensed as the relatedservice is provided. A liability is recognised for theamount expected to be paid e.g. under short-termcash bonus, if the Company has a present legal orconstructive obligation to pay this amount as a resultof past service provided by the employee and theamount of obligation can be estimated reliably.
Share-based payment transactions
The grant date fair value of equity settled share-based payment awards granted to employees isgenerally recognised as an employee expense, witha corresponding increase in equity, over the vestingperiod of the awards. The amount recognised as anexpense is based on the estimate of the number ofawards for which the related service and non-marketvesting conditions are expected to be met, such thatthe amount ultimately recognised as an expense isbased on the number of awards that do meet therelated service and non-market conditions at thevesting date. For share-based payment awards withnon-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value ofthe share-based payment is measured to reflect suchconditions and there is no true-up for differencesbetween expected and actual outcomes.
Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employmentbenefit plan under which an entity pays specifiedcontributions to a separate entity and has noobligation to pay any further amounts. The Companymakes specified monthly contributions towardsGovernment administered provident fund scheme.The Company’s contribution is recognized as anexpense in the Statement of Profit and Loss duringthe period in which the employee renders the relatedservice.
Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset tothe extent that a cash refund or a reduction in futurepayments is available.
Defined benefit plans
A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefitplan other than a defined contribution plan. TheCompany’s gratuity benefit scheme is a definedbenefit plan. The Company’s net obligation in respectof a defined benefit plan is calculated by estimatingthe amount of future benefit that employees haveearned in return for their service in the current andprior periods; that benefit is discounted to determineits present value. The fair value of plan assets isreduced from the gross obligation under the definedbenefit plans, to recognise the obligation on netbasis. The calculation of the Company’s obligation isperformed annually by a qualified actuary using theprojected unit credit method.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability,which comprise actuarial gains and losses, the returnon plan assets (excluding interest), are recognisedin OCI. The Company determines the net interestexpense (income) on the net defined benefit liability(asset) for the period by applying the discount rate,determined by reference to market yields at theend of the reporting period on government bonds,used to measure the defined benefit obligation atthe beginning of the annual period to the then-netdefined benefit liability (asset), taking into accountany changes in the net defined benefit liability(asset) during the period as a result of contributionsand benefit payments. Net interest expense andother expenses related to defined benefit plans arerecognised in statement of profit and loss.
When the benefits of a plan are changed or whena plan is curtailed, the resulting change in benefitthat relates to past service (‘past service cost’ or ‘pastservice gain’) or the gain or loss on curtailment isrecognised immediately in statement of profit andloss. The Company recognises gains and losses onthe settlement of a defined benefit plan when thesettlement occurs.
Other long-term employee benefits -compensated absences
Accumulated absences expected to be carriedforward beyond twelve months is treated as long¬term employee benefit for measurement purposes.The Company’s net obligation in respect of otherlong-term employee benefit of accumulatingcompensated absences is the amount of futurebenefit that employees have accumulated at the endof the year. That benefit is discounted to determineits present value. The obligation is measured annuallyby a qualified actuary using the projected unitcredit method. Remeasurements are recognised instatement of profit and loss in the period in whichthey arise.
The obligations are presented as current liabilitiesin the balance sheet if the Company does not havean unconditional right to defer the settlement for atleast twelve months after the reporting date.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are expensed at the earlier ofwhen the Company can no longer withdraw the offerof those benefits and when the Company recognisescosts for a restructuring. If benefits are not expectedto be settled wholly within 12 months of the reportingdate, then they are discounted.
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. It isrecognised in statement of profit and loss except tothe extent that it relates to a business combination,or an item recognised directly in equity or in Othercomprehensive income.
Current tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable orreceivable on the taxable income or loss for the yearand any adjustment to the tax payable or receivablein respect of previous years. The amount of currenttax payable or receivable is the best estimate of thetax amount expected to be paid or received thatreflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. Itis measured using tax rates enacted or substantivelyenacted at the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offsetonly if there is a legally enforceable right to set offthe recognised amounts, and it is intended to realisethe asset and settle the liability on a net basis orsimultaneously.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporarydifferences between the carrying amounts of assets
and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and thecorresponding amounts used for taxation purposes.Deferred tax is also recognised in respect of carriedforward tax losses and tax credits. Deferred tax is notrecognised for:
- temporary differences arising on the initialrecognition of assets or liabilities in a transactionthat is not a business combination and affectsneither accounting nor taxable profit or loss atthe time of the transaction;
- taxable temporary differences arising on theinitial recognition of goodwill.
Deferred tax is recognized based on the expectedmanner of realization or settlement of the carryingamount of assets and liabilities using tax ratesenacted, or substantially enacted at the reportingperiod.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extentthat is probable that future taxable profits will beavailable against which the assets can be utilized.Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reportingdate and are reduced to the extent that it is no longerprobable that the related tax benefits will be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if thereis a legally enforceable right to offset current taxliabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxeslevied by the same tax authority on the same taxableentity, or on different tax entities, but they intendto settle current tax liabilities and assets on a netbasis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realisedsimultaneously.
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividingthe net profit (or loss) for the year attributable tothe equity shareholders by the weighted averagenumber of equity shares outstanding during theyear. The weighted average numbers of equity sharesoutstanding during the year are adjusted for eventssuch as bonus issue and share split.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividingthe profit (considered in determination of basicearnings per share) after considering the effect ofinterest and other financing costs or income (net ofattributable taxes) associated with dilutive potentialequity shares by the weighted average number ofequity shares considered for deriving basic earningsper share adjusted for the weighted average numberof equity shares that would have been issued uponconversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheetcomprise cash at banks and on hand and short termdeposits with ‘original maturities’ of three monthsor less, which are subject to an insignificant risk ofchanges in value.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cashand cash equivalents consist of cash as definedabove, net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they areconsidered an integral part of the Company’s cashmanagement.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method,whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effectsof transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals oraccruals of past or future operating cash receipts orpayments and item of income or expense associatedwith investing or financing cash flows. The cash flowsfrom operating, investing and financing activities ofthe Company are segregated.
A contingent liability is a possible obligation thatarises from past events and whose existence will beconfirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrenceof one or more uncertain future events not whollywithin the control of the Company or a presentobligation that arises from past events but is notrecognized because it is not probable that an outflowof resources embodying economic benefits will berequired to settle the obligation or the amount ofthe obligation can not be measured with sufficientreliability. The Company does not recognize acontingent liability but discloses its existence in thefinancial statements.
Contingent Assets
Contingent asset is not recognised in the financialstatements since this may result in the recognitionof income that may never be realised. However,when the realisation of income is virtually certain,then the related asset is not a contingent asset andis recognized.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingentassets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
Provision is made for the amount of any dividenddeclared, being appropriately authorized and nolonger at the discretion of the entity, on or beforethe end of the reporting period but not distributedat the end of the reporting period. The final dividend

Risk Management Framework
The Company's Board of directors has overallresponsibility for the establishment and oversightof the Company's risk management framework and
also responsible for developing and monitoring theCompany's risk management policy.
The Company's risk management policies areestablished to identify and analyse the risk facedby the Company, to set appropriate risk limits andcontrols and to monitor risks and adherence to limits.Risk management policies and systems are reviewedregularly to reflect changes in market conditionsand the Company's activities. The Company,through its training and management standardsand procedures, aims to maintain a disciplinedand constructive control environment in which allemployees understand their roles and obligations.The Board of directors with top management overseethe formulation and implementation of the riskmanagement framework. The risks are identified atbusiness unit level and mitigation plans are identified,deliberated and reviewed at appropriate forums.
The Company has exposure to the following risksarising from financial instruments:
- Credit risk;
- Liquidity risk; and
- Market risk"
i. Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company ifa customer or counterparty to a financial instrumentfails to meet its contractual obligations resultingin a financial loss to the Company. Credit risk arisesprincipally from trade receivables, loans, advances,cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks.The carrying amounts of financial assets representthe maximum credit risk exposure.
Trade receivables
The Company exposure to credit risk is influencedmainly by the individual characteristics of eachcustomer. However, management also considersthe factors that may influence the credit risk of itscustomer base, including the default risk of theindustry and country in which customers operate.
The management has established a credit policyunder which each new customer is analysedindividually for creditworthiness before thestandard payments and delivery terms andconditions are offered. The average credit periodprovided to customers varies from 0 to 90 days.For new customers, in addition to feedback from
retail traders, they start doing the business withCompany on advance payment terms. Post abusiness for 3 months and a successful paymenttrack record, the customers are then converted tobusiness with standard credit terms.
An impairment analysis is performed for all thecustomers at each reporting date on an individualbasis. According to the analysis done, the Companyestablishes an allowance for impairment thatrepresents its expected credit losses in respect oftrade and other receivables. The managementuses a simplified approach for the purpose ofcomputation of expected credit loss for tradereceivables. An impairment analysis is performedat each reporting date.
Interest rate risk
Currently the Company's borrowings are within acceptable risk levels, as determined by the management,hence the Company has not taken any swaps to hedge the interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate becauseof changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk changes in market interest relatesprimarily to the Company’s long term debt obligations with floating interest rates. The Company is carrying itsborrowings primarily at variable rate.
Security deposits
The Company has furnished security deposits to its lessors for obtaining the premises on lease. The Companyconsiders that its deposits have low credit risk or negligible risk of default as the parties are well establishedentities and have strong capacity to meet the obligations. Also, where Company expects that there is anuncertainty in the recovery of deposit, it provides for suitable impairment on the same.
During the year, trade receivable with a contractual amount of INR 5.43 crore were written off (31 March 2024:INR 5.44 crore) and the Company does not expect to receive future cash flows or recoveries from collection ofreceivables previously written off. The Company's management also pursues all legal options for recovery ofdues, wherever necessary, based on its internal assessment.
The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for tradereceivables based on a provision matrix. The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experienceand adjusted for forward looking information. The expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of thedays the receivables are due and the rates as per Company's policy.
For trade receivables balance from related parties, there are no indications at the period/year end for default inpayments. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate risk of recovery and expected credit loss in respectthereof.
ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated withits financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company's approach tomanaging liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities whenthey are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or riskingdamage to the Company’s reputation.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and thecash flow generated from operations to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Dueto the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company treasury maintains flexibility in funding bymaintaining availability under committed credit lines.
iii. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in marketprices such as foreign exchange rates will affect theCompany's income or the value of its holdings offinancial instruments. The objective of market riskmanagement is to manage and control marketrisk exposures within acceptable parameters, whileoptimising the return.
The Company’s business activities are exposed to avariety of market risks, namely:
• Currency risk;
• Commodity risk
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency riskto the extent that there is a mismatch betweenthe currencies in which sales and purchases aredenominated and the functional currency ofthe Company, hence exposure to exchange ratefluctuations arises. The risk is that the functionalcurrency value of cash flows will vary as a resultof movements in exchange rates. The functionalcurrency of the Company is INR and the currency inwhich these transactions are primarily denominatedis USD and CNY.
