(xii) Provisions, contingent liabilities and assets:
a. Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past events and it is
probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably
estimated.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to
settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period when the effect of time value is material. The
discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of
the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage
of time is recognized as interest expense.
Provisions are not discounted to present value and are determined based on best estimate of the expenditure
required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet date when the effect of time value is not material. These
are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
b. Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that arise from past events but their
existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events not
wholly within the control of the Company or where any present obligation cannot be measured in terms of
future outflow of resources or where a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made.
A contingent asset is disclosed, where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. An entity shall not recognize
a contingent asset unless the recovery is virtually certain.
(xiii) Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The Cash flow statement is prepared under the "indirect method" and presents the cash flows by operating, investing
and financing activities of the Company.
Cash and cash equivalents presented in the cash flow statement consist of cash on hand and balance with banks in
current and deposit accounts with original maturity of less than 3 months.
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short-term deposits,
net of bank overdrafts as they are considered an integral part of the Company's cash management
(xiv) Foreign Currencies Transactions and Translation:
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of
exchange at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are
recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss except to the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as
an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings that are directly attributable to the acquisition or
construction of qualifying assets which are capitalized as cost of assets.
(xv) Employee benefits
(i) Short-term obligations:
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including nonmonetary 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.
(ii) Other long-term employee benefit obligations:
The liabilities for earned leave and sick leave that are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months
are 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 discount rates for Government Securities (G-Sec) at the end of the reporting period that
have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurement as a result of experience
adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
(iii) Post-employment obligations:
The Company operates the following postemployment schemes:
(a) defined benefit plans such as gratuity; and
(b) defined contribution plans such as provident fund etc.
Gratuity obligations
The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present
value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets.
The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
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.
Termination benefits
Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Company before the normal
retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The
Company recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Company can no
longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the Company recognizes costs for a restructuring
that is within the scope of Ind AS 37 and involves the payment of terminations benefits. In the case of an
offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number
of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the
reporting period are discounted to present value.
(xvi) Earnings Per Share:
The basic Earnings Per Share ("EPS") is computed by dividing the net profit / (loss) after tax for the year attributable
to the equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, net profit / (loss) after tax for the year attributable to the
equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for
the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
(xvii) New Amendments not yet adopted by the Company

any indication that those assets have suffered impairment loss.If any such indication exists the company estimates the
recoverable amounts of such assets.If recoverable amount of the assets or cash generating unit to which the assets belong
is less than the carrying amount,the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount.The reduction is treated as
impairment loss and debited to the profit and loss account.If at the balance sheet date there is a indication of a previously
assessed impairment loss no longer existing, then recoverable amount is reassessed and the asset is reflected at the
recoverable amount subject to maximum of depreciated historical cost.
17.1. Nature and Purpose of Reserves

38 DISCLOSURES AS REQUIRED BY INDIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARD (IND AS) 19 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The Company has classified the various benefits provided to employees as under:-
(a) Defined contribution plans
-Provident fund
The Company has recognized the following amounts in the statement of profit and loss:
Employers' contribution to provident fund :- Current Year Rs. 31.42 Lakhs (Previous Year Rs. 25.66 Lakhs)
(b) Defined benefit plans
- Gratuity
In accordance with Indian Accounting Standard 19, actuarial valuation was done in respect of the aforesaid defined benefit
plans based on the following assumptions-
Economic Assumptions
The discount rate and salary increases assumed are the key financial assumptions and should be considered together; it is
the difference or 'gap' between these rates which is more important than the individual rates in isolation.
Discount Rate
The discounting rate is based on the gross redemption yield on medium to long term risk free investments. The estimated
term of the benefits/obligations works out to zero years. For the current valuation a discount rate of 7.05% p.a. (Previous
Year 7.21% p.a.) compound has been used.
Salary Escalation Rate
The salary escalation rate usually consists of at least three components, viz. regular increments, price inflation and
promotional increases. In addition to this any commitments by the management regarding future salary increases and the
Company's philosophy towards employee remuneration are also to be taken into account. Again a long-term view as to
trend in salary increase rates has to be taken rather than be guided by the escalation rates experienced in the immediate
past, if they have been influenced by unusual factors.
(d) Related party relationship is as identified by the Company on the basis of information available with them and relied upon
by the Auditors.
43. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - ACCOUNTING CLASSIFICATIONS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
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:
1. Fair values of cash and short term deposits, trade and other short term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities,
short term loans from banks and other financial institutions approximate their carrying amounts largely due to short-term
maturities of these instruments.
2. 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 the evaluation, allowances are taken to account
for the expected losses of these receivables.
The company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair values of financial instruments by valuation
technique:
Level 1 : Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 : Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effects on the recorded fair value are observable,
either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 : Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effects on the recorded fair value that are not based on
observable market data.
44. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Company's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk
management framework. The Board of Directors has authorised the Audit Committee (the Committee), which is responsible
for developing and monitoring the Company's risk management framework. The Committee reports to the Board of
Directors on its activities.
The Company's risk management framework is established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set
appropriate mitigation measures. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market
conditions and the Company's activities. The Company, through its training and management standards and procedures,
aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and
obligations.
The audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the company's risk management policies and
procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.
Sensitivity
The table below summarises the impact of increases/decreases of the equity security prices on the Company's profit or loss
for the period.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises two types of risk: interest rate risk and currency risk. Financial instruments affected by
market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits and derivative financial instruments.
The objective of market risk management is to avoid exposure in our foreign currency transactions and interest rate risk.
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 the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the
Company's debt obligations with floating interest rates.
Foreign currency risk
The Company operates locally, however, the nature of its operations requires it to transact in several currencies and
consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk in various foreign currencies.
The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and the Company follows
established risk management policies.
I. Foreign Currency Sensitivity
A reasonably possible strengthening (weakening) of the Indian Rupee against US dollars at March 31 would have affected
the measurement of financial instruments denominated in US dollars and affected profit or loss by the amounts shown
below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact
of forecast sales and purchases. In cases where the related foreign exchange fluctuation is capitalised to fixed assets or
recognized directly in reserves, the impact indicated below may affect the Company's income statement over the remaining
life of the related fixed assets or the remaining tenure of the borrowing respectively.
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, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers, counterparties to
the derivative contract, bank balances, investment securities and other receivables. Credit risk is managed through credit
approvals and continuous monitoring in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful
debts and impairment that represents its estimate of expected credit losses in respect of trade and other receivables.
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 delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to
ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and
stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation.
The Company monitors its risk of shortage of funds. The Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity
of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank loans and debentures. The Company assessed the
concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be moderate. The Company has access to a
sufficient variety of sources of funding and debt maturing within 12 months can be rolled over with existing lenders helping
it maintain adequate liquidity.
Capital management
The company's objective when managing capital is to ensure the going concern operation and to maintain an efficient
capital structure to reduce the cost of borrowings, support the corporate strategy and meet shareholder expectations. The
policy of the Company is to borrow through banks / financial institutions supported by committed borrowing facilities to
meet anticipated funding requirements.
The capital structure is governed by policies approved by the Board of Directors and funding requirements are reviewed
periodically.
The Capital structure is governed by policies approved by Board of Directors and funding requirements are reviewed
periodically.
The company monitors capital using gearing ratio, which is total debt divided by total capital plus debt.

or disclosed as income during the year in the tax assessments under the Income Tax Act, 1961 ( Such as, search or survey or
any other relevant provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961).
