3.6. Provisions (other than employee benefits) and
contingent liabilities

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the
Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be
estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect of
the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that
reflects current market assessments of the time value of money
and the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the
increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised
as a finance cost.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the
consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting
date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding
the obligation.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a
provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the
receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that
reimbursement will be received, and the amount of the receivable
can be measured reliably. The expense relating to a provision
is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any
reimbursement.

Contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past
events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events not
wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation
that arises from past events but is not recognised because it is
not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount
of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed on the basis of judgment of
the management/ independent experts. These are reviewed at
each balance sheet date and are adjusted to reflect the current
management estimate.

Contingent asset is not recognised in standalone financial
statements since they may result in the recognition of income that
may never be realised. However, when the realization of income
is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset
and is recognised. Further, the contingent assets are reviewed at
each Balance sheet date.

3.7 Income

3.7.1 Revenue from contract with customer

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is
measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable
consideration) allocated to that performance obligation.
The transaction price of services rendered is net of variable
consideration on account of various discounts and schemes
offered by the company as part of the contract.

Transaction fee is charged based on the volume of transactions
entered into by the respective member or client of trader/
professional member through the exchange. Fee charged in
relation to transactions under the Day Ahead Market, Green Day
Ahead Market, High Price- Day Ahead Market and the Renewable
Energy Certificate segment, is accrued when the orders placed
on the network are matched and confirmed by National Load
Dispatch Centre. Fee charged in relation to transactions under
the Term Ahead Market, High Price-Term Ahead Market and
Green Term Ahead Market is accrued when orders placed on
the network are matched, confirmed by Regional Load Dispatch
Centre and delivered. Fee charged in relation to transactions
under the Real Time Market segment is accrued when orders
placed on the network are matched, confirmed by National Load
Dispatch Centre and delivered.

Membership fees charged from a member of the exchange at the
time of admission to the exchange is recognised on a pro-rata
basis over the estimated period of time over which the services
are expected to be provided.

Annual subscription fee, in the month when the member is
registered for the first time, is recognised on commencement of
trading that coincides with the registration of client of member on
a pro-rata basis. Annual subscription fee, in the month when the
client is registered for the first time, is recognised on registration
of client on a pro-rata basis.

Annual subscription fee, in any year subsequent to the year of
registration, is recognised on a pro-rata basis over a period of
twelve months from the month of re-registration.

The invoices against transaction fee, membership fee and annual
subscription fee are due for payment from the invoice date.

The Company accounts for volume discounts and pricing
incentives to customers by reducing the amount of revenue
recognised at the time of services rendered. Revenues are shown
net of goods and service tax and applicable discounts and
allowances.

3.7.2 Recognition of Dividend Income, Interest Income and
profit on sale of Investment

Interest income is recognised, when no significant uncertainty as
to measurability or collectability exists, on a time proportion basis
taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable
interest rate, using the effective interest rate method (EIR).

Dividend income is recognised in the statement of profit and
loss on the date that the Company's right to receive payment

is established, which in the case of quoted securities is the ex¬
dividend date.

Profit on sale of investments is determined as the difference
between the sales price and carrying value of the investments at
the time of disposal of these investments.

3.8 Employee Benefits

3.8.1 Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of
rendering the services are classified as short-term employee
benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, etc. are
recognised in the statement of profit and loss in the period
in which the employee renders the related services. Such
obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis.

A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under
short-term cash bonus, if the Company has a present legal or
constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past
service provided by the employee and the obligation can be
estimated reliably.

3.8.2 Defined contribution plan

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan
under which the Company's legal or constructive obligation is
limited to the amount that it contributes to a separate legal entity.
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are
recognised as an employee benefits expense in the statement of
profit and loss in the period during which services are rendered by
employees.

The Company pays fixed contribution to Provident Fund at
predetermined rates to regional provident fund commissioner.
The contributions to the fund for the year are recognised as
expense and are charged to the statement of profit and loss in
which the related services are provided by the employees.

3.8.3 Defined benefit plan

A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other
than a defined contribution plan. The Company's liability towards
gratuity is in the nature of defined benefit plans.

The Company's net obligation in respect of defined benefit plan is
calculated separately by estimating the amount of future benefit
that employees have earned in return for their service in the
current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine
its present value. Any unrecognised past service costs and the fair
value of any plan assets are deducted. The discount rate is based
on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as
at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the
terms of the Company's obligations and that are denominated in
the same currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid.

When the benefits of a plan are changed or when a plan is
curtailed, the resulting change in benefit that relates to past
service ('past service cost' or 'past service gain') or the gain or
loss on curtailment is recognised immediately in Statement of
profit and Loss. The Company recognises gains and losses on

the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement
occurs.

The calculation is performed annually by a qualified actuary using
the projected unit credit method. When the calculation results in
a benefit to the Company, the recognised asset is limited to the
total of any unrecognised past service costs. Any actuarial gains
or losses are recognised in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in
the period in which they arise.

3.8.4 Other long term employee benefits

Benefits under the Company's compensated absences constitute
other long term employee benefits.

Cost of long-term benefit by way of accumulating compensated
absences arising during the tenure of the service is calculated
taking into account the pattern of availment of leave. In respect of
encashment of leave, the defined benefit is calculated taking into
account all types of decrements and qualifying salary projected
up to the assumed date of encashment. The present value of
obligations under such long-term benefit plan is determined
based on actuarial valuation carried out by an independent
actuary using the Projected Unit Credit Method as at period end.

3.8.5 Share based payments

The grant date fair value of equity settled share-based payment
awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee
benefits expense, with a corresponding increase in other equity,
over the vesting period of the award. The amount recognised as
expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which
the related service and non-market performance conditions are
expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised
as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet
the related service and non-market vesting conditions at the
vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting
conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment
is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for
differences between expected and actual outcome.

When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the
minimum expense recognised by the Company is the grant date
of the unmodified award provided the vesting conditions (other
than a market condition) specified on grant date of the award are
met

Further, additional expense, if any, is measured and recognised as
at the date of modification, in case such modification increases
the total fair value of the share-based payment plan, or is
otherwise beneficial to the employee.

3.9 Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company's non-financial assets, other than deferred tax
assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether
there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists,
then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated.

For assets that are not yet available for use, the recoverable
amount is estimated at each reporting date.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is
the higher of its fair value less costs to disposal and its value in
use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows
are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of
impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are
grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates
cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of
the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the "cash¬
generating unit", or "CGU").

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an
asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit
and loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are
reduced from the carrying amounts of the assets of the CGU.

Impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed
at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has
decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed
if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine
the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only
to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed
the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of
depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been
recognised.

3.10 Leases

3.10.1 Accounting for operating leases- As a lessee

The Company's lease assets classes primarily consist of lease
for office premises. The Company assesses whether a contract
contains a lease, at inception of a contract. A contract is, or
contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the
use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right
to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses
whether:

a) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

b) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits
from use of the asset through the period of the lease and
the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company
recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding
lease liability for all lease arrangements in which it is a lessee,
except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short¬
term leases) and low value leases. For these short-term and low
value leases, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an
operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease. Certain lease arrangements include the options to extend or
terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets
and lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably
certain that they will be exercised. The right-of-use assets are
initially recognised at cost, which comprises the initial amount
of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at

or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial
direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and
remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or
the site on which its is located, less any lease incentives received.
They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets is subsequently depreciated using the
straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier
of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end
of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the
underlying asset to the Company by the end of the lease term or
the cost of the right-of-use-asset reflects that the Company will
exercise a purchase option. In that case, the right-of-use asset
will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset,
which is determined on the same basis as those of property, plant
and equipment. In addition, the Right-of-use asset is periodically
reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain
remeasurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the
lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date,
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that
rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental
borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental
borrowing rate as the discount rate.

Lease payments include in the measurement of the lease liability
comprise the following:

• fixed payments, including in substance fixed payments;

• variable lease payments that depend on an index or a
rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
commencement date

• amounts expected to be payable under a residual value
guarantee and

• the exercise price under a purchase option that the
Company is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments
in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably
certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties
for early termination of a lease unless the Company is
reasonably certain not to terminate early

The lease liability is measured at the amortised cost using the
effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is change
in future lease payments arising from a change in index or
rate, if there is a change in Company's estimate of the amount
expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the
Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a
purchase, extension or termination option or if there is a revised
in-substance fixed lease payment. When the lease liability is re¬
measured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to
the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in
statement of profit and loss if the carrying amount of right-of-use
asset has been reduced to zero

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use asset

and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term
leases. The Company recognises the lease payments associated
with these leases as an expense in statement of profit and loss on
a straight-line basis over the lease term.

• less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payment
that depends on index or a rate, and amount to be paid
under residual value guarantees. The lease payments are
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or,
if not readily determinable, the Company uses incremental
borrowing rates. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a
corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset
if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will
exercise an extension or a termination option.

3.11 Income Tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is
recognised in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent
that it relates to items recognised directly in other comprehensive
income or equity, in which case it is recognised in OCI or equity.

Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on
the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the
tax payable in respect of previous years. The amount of current
tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount
expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related
to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally
enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and its
intended to realize the asset and settle the liability on a net basis
simultaneously.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the corresponding amounts
used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the
tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the
asset is realised, based on the laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to
offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income
taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity,
or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax
liabilities and assets on net basis or their tax assets and liabilities
will be realised simultaneously.

Deferred tax is recognised in the statement of profit and loss
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in
OCI or equity, in which case it is recognised in OCI or equity.

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable
that future taxable profits will be available against which the
temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are
reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred tax is not recognised for:

• temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or
liabilities in a transaction that:

is not a business combination

at the time of transaction (i) affects neither accounting
nor taxable profit or loss and (ii) does not give rise to equal
taxable and deductible temporary difference.

• temporary differences related to investment in subsidiary
and associate to the extent that the Company is able
to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary
differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the
foreseeable future.

3.12 Earning per share

Basic earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net
profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company
by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding
during the financial year. The weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for bonus issue,
bonus element in a rights issue to existing shareholders, share
split and reverse share split (consolidation of shares).

Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net
profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company
by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for
deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted
average number of equity shares that could have been issued
upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.

3.13 Operating segment

An operating segment is a component of the Company that
engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues
and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate
to transactions with any of the Company's other components,
and for which discrete financial information is available. In
accordance with Ind AS 108, the operating segments used
to present segment information are identified on the basis of

internal reports used by the Company's management to allocate
resources to the segments and assess their performance.

The Chairman & Managing Director along with the Board of
Directors is collectively the Company's 'Chief Operating Decision
Maker' or 'CODM' within the meaning of Ind AS 108. The indicators
used for internal reporting purposes may evolve in connection
with performance assessment measures put in place.

3.14 Cash flow statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit
or loss for the period is adjusted for the effects of transactions
of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future
operating cash receipts or payments and item of income or
expenses associated with investing or financing cash flows. The
cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of
the Company are segregated.

3.15 Recent Pronouncement

Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or
amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. MCA

d) Details of shares issued for consideration other than cash / bonus shares / bought back

During the year ended 31 March 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held on 25 November 2022, approved the
buyback of equity shares from the open market route through the Indian stock exchanges, amounting to '9,800 (maximum buyback size,
excluding buyback tax) at a price not exceeding '200 per share (maximum buyback price), subject to approval of the members of the
Company. The Shareholders approved the proposal for buyback of Equity Shares recommended by its Board of Directors by way of e-voting
on the postal ballot, the results of which were declared on 30 December 2022. The buyback was offered to all eligible equity shareholders of
the Company (other than the Promoters, the Promoter Group and Persons in Control of the Company) under the open market route through

exchange at a weighted average buyback price of '140.45 per equity share comprising 0.78% of the pre buyback paid up equity share capital
of the Company. The buyback resulted in a cash outflow of '9,798.96 (excluding transaction costs and tax on buyback). The Company funded
the buyback from its free reserves in accordance with the provision of Section 68 of the Companies Act, 2013. In accordance with Section 69
of the Companies Act, 2013, as at 31 March 2023, the Company had created a 'Capital Redemption Reserve' of '69.77 equal to the nominal
value of the above shares bought back as an appropriation from the general reserve.

36. Employee benefits

(i) Defined contribution plans:

Provident fund and National Pension Scheme

The Company makes contributions, determined as a specified percentage of employees' salaries, in respect of qualifying employees towards
Provident Fund (PF) and National Pension Scheme (NPS). The contributions are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as they accrue.
The amount recognized as expense towards such contributions for the year aggregated to '239.19 (31 March 2025: '203.45)

(ii) Defined benefit plans:

Gratuity

The Company has a defined benefit plan that provides for gratuity. The gratuity plan entitles all eligible employees who have completed five
years or more of service to receive half month's salary for each year of completed service at the time of retirement, superannuation, death
or permanent disablement, in terms of the provisions of the Code on Social Security, 2020. The following table summarizes the position of
assets and obligations.

Based on the actuarial valuation obtained in this respect, the following table sets out the status of the gratuity and the amounts recognised
in the Company's financial statements as at balance sheet date:

The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the balance sheet date for the estimated term of
the obligations.

The estimates of future salary increases considered in actuarial valuation take account of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant
factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.

g) Sensitivity analysis:

Reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the relevant actuarial assumptions, holding other assumptions constant,
would have affected the defined benefit obligation by the amounts shown below.

37. Leases

Leases where the Company is a lessee:

The Company has entered into lease transactions mainly for leasing of office premise for a period between 1 to 9 years. The terms of
lease include terms of renewal, increase in rents in future periods, which are in line with general inflation, and terms of cancellation. None
of the leases consists of any variable lease payment terms. Extension and termination options are included in a number of property lease
arrangements of the Company. These are used to maximise operational flexibility in terms of managing the assets used in the Company's
operations. The majority of extension and termination options held are exercisable based on mutual consent of the Company and respective
lessors and uses to assess the short term leases. The aggregate depreciation expense on Right of Use assets is included under depreciation
and amortization expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. (Also, refer note 4(a)).

38. Capital commitments

Estimated amount of contracts remaining to be executed on capital account and not provided for Nil (31 March 2025: '562.39)

39. Contingent liabilities

'260.71 along with Interest of '216.97 and penalty of '26.08, against which the Company had filed an appeal before the Appellate Authority,
Delhi - Goods and Service Tax. As on date, the matter is pending for hearing before Authority. While the ultimate outcome of the above-
mentioned appeals cannot be ascertained at this time, based on current knowledge of the applicable law, management believes that matter
raised by department is not tenable and highly unlikely to be retained and accordingly believe that no amount will be payable to the concerned
authorities.

* The carrying amounts of the above mentioned financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair value due to their nature.

There are no transfers among levels 1, 2 and 3 during the year.

Valuation technique used to determine fair value:

Specific valuation techniques used to fair value of financial instruments include:

Level 1: the use of quoted market prices for quoted mutual funds, market linked debentures and unit of Invit
Level 2: the use of NAV for unquoted mutual funds

Level 3: the fair value of the remaining financial instruments is determined using an appropriate discounting rate

42. Financial Risk Management

The Company's activities expose it to the followings risks arising from financial instruments:

- Credit risk

- Liquidity risk

- Market risk

This note presents information about the Company's exposure to each of the above risks, the Company's objectives, policies and
processes for measuring and managing risk.

Risk Management framework

The Company's Board of Directors ("the Board") has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk
management framework. The Company's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company,

42. Financial Risk Management (Contd...)

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual
obligations. The carrying amount of the financial assets represents maximum credit exposure.

Credit risks on cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits is limited as the Company generally invests in deposits with banks with high
credit ratings assigned by domestic credit agencies. Investments primarily include investments in mutual fund units, commercial papers,
market linked debentures, infrastructure investment units, target maturity funds, fixed maturity plans and investment in bonds with fixed
interest income. The management actively monitors the net asset value of investments in mutual funds, infrastructure investment units,
interest rate and maturity period of investment in bonds and commercial papers. The Company does not expect the counterparty to fail
in meeting its obligations. However, investment in target maturity funds, fixed maturity plans, market linked debentures are exposed to
uncertainties as regards to fulfilment of obligations by counter-party. The Company has not experienced any significant impairment losses
in respect of any of the investments. In respect of other financial assets including security deposit, the credit risk associated is relatively low.
Accordingly, no provision for expected credit loss has been provided on such financial assets.

Credit risk on trade receivable is also very limited. The Company mitigates its exposure to risks relating to trade receivables from its
members / clients by requiring them to comply with the Company's established financial requirements and criteria for admission as
members / clients. As a process, the Company collects the amounts from buyer for purchase of power, including transmission and other
charges and exchange fees on or before the delivery and pays out the amount to seller for sale of power one day after delivery. Further,
transmission charges etc. are paid to system operator on the next day from the day of trade. Further, the Company also holds and maintain
settlement guarantee funds for settlement of defaults by any of the members/ clients.

(i) Exposure to credit risk

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the
reporting date was:

(ii) Provision for expected credit losses

(a) Financial assets for which loss allowance is measured using 12 month expected credit losses

The Company has assets where the counter- parties have sufficient capacity to meet the obligations and where the risk of default
is very low. Hence, no impairment loss has been recognised during the reporting periods in respect of these assets.

(b) Financial assets for which loss allowance is measured using life time expected credit losses

The Company has customers with strong capacity to meet the obligations and therefore the risk of default is negligible or nil.
Further, management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due are still collectible in full, based on historical payment
behavior and extensive analysis of customer credit risk and SGF funds available with the Company and hence no impairment loss
has been recognised during the reporting year in respect of trade receivables.

(iii) Ageing analysis of trade receivables

The ageing analysis of the trade receivables is as below:

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are
settled by payments or another financial asset. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will
always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable
losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation.

The Company believes that its liquidity position, comprising total cash (including bank deposits under lien) and short-term investments and
anticipated future internally generated funds from operations, will enable it to meet its future known obligations in the ordinary course of
business. However, if liquidity needs were to arise, the Company believes it has access to financing arrangements which would enable it to
meet its ongoing capital, operating and other liquidity requirements.

. (i) Financing arrangements

The Company had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period::

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of change in market price. Market risk comprises
three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control
market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

A. Currency risk

Currency Risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change in foreign exchange rates. The
Company is not exposed to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign exchange rates on its financial position and cash flows since
all financial assets / liabilities are receivable / payable in Indian currency.

B. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of change in market interest risks. The
profile of the Company's interest bearing financial instruments is as follows:

C. Other Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instruments will fluctuate because of change in market price (other
than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk). The profile of the Company's financial instruments valued at market value is as
follows:

As an estimation of the approximate impact of price risk, with respect to Units of InvIT, mutual funds, Enviro Enablers India Private Limited
and investments in MLD, a 0.25% increase in prices would have led to approximately an additional '279.11 gain in the Statement of Profit
and Loss (2024-25 '220.35 gain). A 0.25% decrease in prices would have led to an equal but opposite effect. For investment in Equity
Index Mutual Fund, a 5% increase in prices would have led to approximately an additional '379.54 gain in the Statement of Profit and Loss
(2024-25: '99.80 gain). A 5% decrease in prices would have led to an equal but opposite effect.

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed-rate instruments

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

43. Capital Management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern so that they can continue
to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of
capital. The Company does not have any debt outstanding as on 31 March 2026 and 31 March 2025.

44. Operating segments

The Company is a power exchange. The entire operations are governed by similar set of risk and returns. Accordingly, the Company's
activities/ business is reviewed regularly by the Company's Chairman & Managing Director along with the Board of Directors of the Company,
from an overall business perspective, rather than reviewing its activities as individual standalone components. Thus, the Company has only
one operating segment, and no reportable segments in accordance with Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments.

45. The Government of India has enacted the following labour codes, which subsume and replace multiple existing labour laws: Code on Wages,
2019, Industrial Relations Code, 2020, Code on Social Security, 2020, Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020. The
implementation of the labour codes is subject to issuance of the relevant rules and notifications by the Central and State Governments.
The Company has undertaken an assessment of the potential impact of these labour codes on its financial statements, including employee
benefits, social security contributions and related compliances. Based on the assessment carried out and considering the current status
of implementation, the Company does not expect a material impact on its financial information at the time of adoption. The Company will
continue to monitor developments in this regard and will appropriately evaluate and account for the impact, if any, in the period in which the
labour codes become effective.

46. During the year, the Company received a whistle blower complaint relating to alleged conflict of interest and potential diversion of business
involving certain officials. The Audit Committee has initiated an independent investigation, which remains ongoing as at the date of approval
of the standalone financial statements by the Board, which do not have a material impact on the standalone financial statements. Hence,
no adjustment has been considered necessary in the standalone financial statements.

47. The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission ("CERC") vide its Suo Motu Order dated July 23, 2025, proposing the process for
implementation of market coupling for the Day Ahead Market (DAM) of power exchanges by January 2026. The Company challenged the
aforesaid CERC order before the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL). The Hon'ble APTEL, vide its order held that the Company is not
a "person aggrieved" at this stage, as market coupling can be implemented only once the separate Regulations are framed by the CERC.
Against the Hon'ble APTEL order, the Company has filed a civil appeal before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. Subsequently, on April 17,
2026, CERC issued the draft CERC (Power Market) (Second Amendment) Regulations, 2026, proposing amendments to the existing CERC
(Power Market) Regulations, 2021 for public consultation.
