2.09 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the enterprise has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the effect of the time value of money is material, the enterprise determines the level of provision by discounting the expected cash flows at a pre-tax rate reflecting the current rates specific to the liability. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss net of any reimbursement.
2.10 Contingent Liabilities
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in
extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the financial statements.
2.11 Earning Per Share
The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with Ind AS 33 on Earnings per share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders (after deducting preference dividend and attributable taxes) by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares. Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless they have been issued at a later date. In computing the dilutive earnings per share, only potential equity shares that are dilutive and that either reduces the earnings per share or increases loss per share are included.
2.12Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the Ind AS requires the management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and the accompanying disclosure and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, at the end of the reporting period. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Although these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge of current events and actions, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in the outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities in future periods.
In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in the following notes:

a) Statutory Reserve pursuant to Section 45-IC of the RBI Act, 1934
Every non-banking financial company is required to create a reserve fund and transfer therein a sum not less than twenty per cent of its net profit every year as disclosed in the statement of profit and loss before any dividend is declared.
b) Securities Premium
Securities premium reserve is used to record the premium on issue of shares and used for allottment of bonus share in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
c) General reserve
Under the erstwhile Companies Act 1956, general reserve was created through an annual transfer of net income at a specified percentage in accordance with applicable regulations. The purpose of these transfers was to ensure that if a dividend distribution in a given year is more than 10% of the paid-up capital of the Company for that year, then the total dividend distribution is less than the total distributable results for that year. Consequent to introduction of Companies Act 2013, the requirement to mandatorily transfer a specified percentage of the net profit to general reserve has been withdrawn. However, the amount previously transferred to the general reserve can be utilised only in accordance with the specific requirements of Companies Act, 2013.
d) Employee stock option outstanding
This reserve is used to record the employee stock options which are outstanding. The said reserve will be utilised for issuance of share to the eligible employees.
e) Proposed Dividend
The Board of Directors have recommended a final dividend of 20% i.e. H 0.20 per equity share on face value of H 1/- each for the year 2024-25 (previous year H 0.15 per equity share) subject to the approval of the members at the ensuing Annual General Meeting. In terms of Ind AS 10 - "Events after the Reporting Period" the Company has not appropriated proposed dividend aggregating to H 165.02 million from the Statement of Profit and Loss Account for the year ended March 31, 2025.
Note :
The sensitivity analysis have been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the projected benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognised in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
47. Leases
A. 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.
B. Company as a lessee
The Company's lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for premises. The Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease, at inception of a contract. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
Classification of assets and liabilities under the maturity buckets is based on the same estimates and assumptions as used by the Company for compiling the return submitted to the RBI. The Above is based on the information available with the company which has been relied upon by the auditors.
50. Capital Management
The Company's capital management is intended to create value for shareholders by facilitating the meeting of long-term and short¬ term goals of the Company. The Company determines the amount of capital required on the basis of annual operating plans and other strategic investment plans. The funding requirements if any will be met through bank borrowings and equity if the need arise.
The primary objectives of the Company's capital management are to ensure that the Company complies with externally imposed capital requirements and maintains strong credit ratings and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and to maximise shareholders value. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it according to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its activities. Capital Management, objectives and processes are under constant review by the Board.
For details of Capital to Risk Assets Ratio (CRAR) refer Note no. - 59.01
52. Fair value measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition is normally the transaction price (fair value of the consideration given or received). Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company determines the fair value of financial instruments that are quoted in active markets using the quoted bid prices (financial assets held) or quoted ask prices (financial liabilities held) and using valuation techniques for other instruments. Valuation techniques include discounted cash flow method, market comparable method, recent transactions happened in the Company and other valuation models.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal (or most advantageous) market at the measurement date under current market conditions, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using a valuation technique.
Ind AS 107, 'Financial Instrument - Disclosure' requires classification of the valuation method of financial instruments measured at fair value in the balance Sheet, using a three level fair-value-hierarchy (which reflects the significance of inputs used in the measurements). The hierarchy gives the highest priority to un-adjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair- value-hierarchy under Ind AS 107 are described below:
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments, traded bonds and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments (including bonds) which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period. The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over- the- counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise 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.
Short-term financial assets and liabilities: For financial assets and financial liabilities that have a short-term maturity (less than twelve months), the carrying amounts, which are net of impairment, are a reasonable approximation of their fair value. Such instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, balances other than cash and cash equivalents and trade payables without a specific maturity
53. Risk Disclosures
Company's risk is managed through an integrated risk management framework, including ongoing identification, measurement and monitoring, subject to risk limits and other controls. This process of risk management is critical to the Company's continuing profitability and each individual within the Company is accountable for the risk exposures relating to his or her responsibilities. The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk. It is the Company's policy to ensure that a robust risk awareness is embedded in its organisational risk culture.
A Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss because its customers or counterparties fail to discharge their contractual obligations. The Company manages and controls credit risk by setting limits on the amount of risk it is willing to accept for individual counterparties.
1 Impairment assessment
a) Exposure at Default
The Exposure at Default is an estimate of the exposure at a future default date including the undrawn commitments. EAD is taken as the gross exposure under a facility upon default of an obligor. The principal outstanding, overdue principal, accrued interest, overdue interest is considered as EAD for the purpose of ECL computation.
The advances have been bifurcated into following three stages:
Stage 1- All exposures where there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition or that has low credit risk at the reporting date and that are not credit impaired upon origination are classified under this stage. The Company classifies all standard advances (past due for 0 to30 days) under this category. Stage 1 loans also include facilities where the credit risk has reduced and the loan has been reclassified from Stage 2 or Stage 3
Stage 2 - All exposures where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition but are not credit impaired are classified under this stage. Financial assets past due for 31 to 90 days are classified under this stage and lifetime ECL is recognised on such financial assets. Stage 2 loans also include facilities where the credit risk has reduced, and the loan has been reclassified from Stage 3.
Stage 3 - All exposures assessed as credit impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of that asset have occurred are classified in this stage. For exposures that have become credit impaired, interest revenue is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the amortised cost (net of provision) rather than the gross carrying amount. More than 90 days Past Due is considered as default for classifying a financial instrument as credit impaired.
b) Significant increase in credit risk
The Company continuously monitors all assets subject to ECLs. In order to determine whether an instrument or a portfolio of instruments is subject to 12 months ECL or lifetime ECL, the Company assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. The Company considers an exposure to have significantly increased in credit risk if contractual payments are more than 30 days past due.
c) Definition of default and cure
The Company considers a financial instrument defaulted and therefore Stage 3 (credit impaired) for ECL calculations in all cases when the borrower becomes more than 90 days past due on its contractual payments.
As a part of a qualitative assessment of whether a customer is in default, the Company also considers a variety of instances that may indicate inability to pay. When such events occur, the Company carefully considers whether the event should result in treating the customer as defaulted and therefore assessed as Stage 3 for ECL calculations or whether Stage 2 is appropriate. Such events include:
a) Significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
b) A breach of contract such as a default or past due event;
c) The restructuring of a loan or advance by the company on terms that the company would not consider otherwise; or
d) It is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation
It is the Company's policy to consider a financial instrument as 'cured' and therefore re-classified out of Stage 3 when the borrower makes necessary payments & the borrower's days past due become "0" after such payments. The decision whether to classify an asset as Stage 2 or Stage 1 once cured depends on the updated credit grade, at the time of the cure, and whether this indicates there has been a significant increase in credit risk compared to initial recognition.
d) Probability of Default ("PD") estimation process
Probability of default (PD) is defined as the likelihood of default over a particular time horizon. The PD of an obligor is a fundamental risk parameter in credit risk analysis and depends on obligor specific as well as macroeconomic risk factors.
a) The Company has applied 12 months PD to stage 1 advances
b) The Lifetime PD is computed using basic exponentiation technique after considering the residual maturity of the respective loan.
c) PD of 100% is considered for Stage 3 assets.
Days past due are a primary input for the determination of the PD for exposures. The Company collects performance and default information about its credit risk exposures analysed by portfolio. For some portfolios, rating based published information is used.
The Company employs statistical models to analyse the data collected and generate estimates of the remaining lifetime PD of exposures and how these are expected to change as a result of the passage of time. Such statistical models are selected considering the availability of information related to the probability of default for each product. This analysis includes the identification and calibration of relationships between changes in default rates and changes in key macro-economic factors.
For the purpose of determination of impact of forward looking information, the Company applies various macro economic (ME) variables as stated above to each portfolio and assess the trend of the historical probability of defaults as compared to the forecasted probability of default. Based on the directional trend of output, management applies an overlay if required. Overtime, new ME variable may emerge to have a better correlation and may replace ME being used now.
The loans are segmented into homogenous product categories to determine the historical PD/LGD as per similar risk profiles, this segmentation is subject to regular review For portfolios in respect of which the Company has limited historical data, external benchmark information is used to supplement the internally available data.
The Company does not have any historic data of default in case of Gold Loan portfolio, so it has relied upon the published data of competitors. In case of Unsecured business loan, it has relied upon the public data of partners with their existing customers of the similar behavioral vintage
e) Loss Given Default (LGD)
Loss Given Default ("LGD") is defined as the loss rate on the exposure, given the borrower has defaulted. LGD is being calculated for all financial instruments under risk parameter approach by way of evaluation of historical data on defaults, recovery amounts, collateral liquidation, direct expenses, and opportunity cost for each default. LGD has been computed using the volatility-based model in case of Gold Loan portfolio. LGD has been computed by using the FIRB (Foundation Internal Rating Based) in case of Unsecured business loan
f) Forward looking information
In its ECL models, the Company relies on a broad range of forward looking information as economic inputs, such as. GDP growth, Consumer Price Index, Unemployment rate, Lending Interest Rate etc. The inputs and models used for calculating ECLs may not always capture all characteristics of the market at the date of the financial statements. To reflect this, qualitative adjustments or overlays are occasionally made as temporary adjustments when such differences are significantly material.
2 Analysis of risk concentration - Refer Note 59.15
3 Collateral and other credit enhancements
The Company holds collateral and other credit enhancements against certain of its credit exposures. The loans are collateralized against equitable mortgage of property, pledge of shares, hypothecation of assets, physical gold jewellery, undertaking to create security.
Management monitors the market value of collateral and will request additional collateral in accordance with the underlying agreement. In case of defaults by customers, where the Company is unable to recover the dues, the Company through a legal process enforces the security and recovers the dues.
B Liquidity risk and funding management
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Company might be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due as a result of mismatches in the timing of the cash flows under both normal and stress circumstances. Such scenarios could occur when funding needed for illiquid asset positions is not available to the Company on acceptable terms. To limit this risk, management has arranged for diversified funding sources and adopted a policy of managing assets by monitoring future cash flows and liquidity on a daily basis.
Liquidity risk is managed in accordance with our Asset Liability Management Policy. This policy is framed as per the current regulatory guidelines and is approved by the Board of Directors. The Asset Liability Management Policy is reviewed periodically to incorporate changes as required by regulatory stipulation or to realign the policy with changes in the economic landscape. The Asset Liability Committee (ALCO) of the Company formulates and reviews strategies and provides guidance for management of liquidity risk within the framework laid out in the Asset Liability Management Policy.
C Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair values of financial instruments. The core business of the company is providing loans to MSME, Construction Finance, Indirect Lending, Gold Loan and Unsecured business loan. The company borrows through various financial instruments to finance its core lending activity. These activities expose the company to interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk is measured through earnings at risk from an earnings perspective and through duration of equity from an economic value perspective. Further, exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is also measured by way of gap analysis, providing a static view of the maturity and re-pricing characteristic of Balance sheet positions. An interest rate sensitivity gap report is prepared by classifying all rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities into various time period categories
D Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of loss arising from systems failure, human error, fraud or external events. When controls fail to operate effectively, operational risks can cause damage to reputation, have legal or regulatory implications, or lead to financial loss. The Company cannot expect to eliminate all operational risks, but it endeavors to manage these risks through a control framework and by monitoring and responding to potential risks. Controls include maker-checker controls, effective segregation of duties, access, authorisation and reconciliation procedures, staff education and assessment processes, such as the use of internal audit.
E Capital Management :
Company's capital management objective is primarily to safeguard business continuity. The Company's capital raising policy is aligned to macro economic situation and incidental risk factors. The Company's cashflows are regularly monitored in sync with annual operating plans and long-term and other strategic investment plans. The operational funding requirements are met through debt and operating cash flows generated. The company believes this approach would create shareholder value in long run. Also, the company has adopted a conservative approach for ALM management with primacy to adequate liquidity. At present a large portion of the company's resource base is equity. Therefore the company enjoys a low gearing.
The Company maintains its capital structure in line with economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its activities and the board reviews the capital position on a regular basis.
Expected life of the options: Expected life of the options is the period for which the company expects the Options to be live. The minimum life of a stock option is the minimum period before which the options cannot be exercised, and the maximum life is the period after which the options cannot be exercised.
Expected volatility: The measure of volatility used in ESOP pricing model is the annualised standard deviation of the continuously compounded rates of return (calculated by log function) on the share over a period prior to the date of grant corresponding to the expected life of the option.
Expected dividend yield: Expected dividend yield has been calculated as an average of dividend yields of six financial years preceding the date of grant. The dividend yield for the year is derived by dividing the dividend per share by the share price as on dividend effective date.
Risk-free interest rate: The rate used to discount employee benefit obligations reflects the estimated timing of benefit payments and the currency in which the benefits are to be paid. We have used the Discount Rate which relates to the par-yield rate available on ZYC Government Securities (G. Sec.) for the tenure of the expected life of options. (Ref: G Sec. rates available through www.fbil. org.in with prices/yields published by FBIL).
3.3 Disclosures on risk exposure in derivatives Qualitative disclosure
The Company undertakes derivative transactions for hedging on-balance sheet liabilities, these derivative transactions are in form of Forward Exchange Contracts.
The Asset Liability Management Committee and Risk Management Committee closely monitors such transactions and reviews the risks involved. The Company has entered into these Forward Exchange Contract to mitigate the foreign exchange risk pertaining to FCNR (B) Term Loan.
All derivative contracts including the Forward Exchange Contracts are recognised on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Hedge accounting is applied to all the derivative instruments including the Forward Exchange Contracts as
38 Disclosure On Liquidity Risk Management Framework Pursuant To Reserve Bank Of India Notification RBI /DNBR / 2016-17/45 Master Direction Dnbr.Pd.008/03.10.119/2016-17 Dated December 29, 2022.
A. Qualitative Disclosure on LCR
The Board of Directors are responsible for the overall risk management approach and for approving the risk management strategies and principles. The Board has constituted the Risk Management Committee (RMC) which is responsible for monitoring the overall risk process within the Company.
The meetings of RMC are held at quarterly interval. The Risk owners are responsible for monitoring compliance with risk principles, policies and limits across the Company. RMC ensures that the credit and investment exposure to any party / Company / group of parties or companies does not exceed the internally set limits as well as statutory limits as prescribed by Reserve Bank of India from time to time. RMC Develops risk policies and procedures and verify adherence to various risk parameters and prudential limits; review the risk monitoring system and ensure effective risk management.
The Company's Treasury is responsible for managing its assets and liabilities and the overall financial structure. It is also primarily responsible for the funding and liquidity risks of the Company.
The Board of Directors has constitution of Asset Liability Committee (ALCO). The Company's ALCO monitors asset liability mismatches to ensure that there are no imbalances or excessive concentrations on either side of the balance sheet. ALCO conducts quarterly reviews relating to the liquidity position and stress test assuming various 'what if' scenarios. The ALCO is a decision-making unit responsible for balance sheet planning from risk-return perspective including strategic management of interest rate and liquidity risks. The ALCO also evaluates the Borrowing Plan of subsequent quarters based on previous borrowings of the Company.
In assessing the Company's liquidity position, consideration is given to: (1) present and anticipated asset quality (2) present and future earnings capacity (3) historical funding requirements (4) current liquidity position (5) anticipated future funding needs, and (6) sources of funds. The Company maintains a portfolio of marketable assets that are assumed to be easily liquidated and undrawn cash credit limits which can be used in the event of an unforeseen interruption in cash flow. In accordance with the Company's policy, the liquidity position is assessed under a variety of scenarios, giving due consideration to stress factors relating to both the market in general and specifically to the Company. Net liquid assets consist of cash, short-term bank deposits and investments in mutual fund available for immediate sale. Borrowings from banks and financial institutions and issue of debentures are considered as important sources of funds to finance lending to customers.
The minutes of ALCO meetings are placed before the RMC and the Board of Directors meeting for noting.
The Company exceeds the regulatory requirement of liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) introduced by the RBI in FY 2020. This requirement stipulates that NBFCs with an asset size of H 5,000 crore and above are required to maintain 50% of its expected net cash outflows in a stressed scenario in high quality liquid assets (HQLA) by December 2021; which has to be increased to 100% by December 2024 in a phased manner.
