3.9 Provisions , Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets
a) Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.
Provisions (excluding retirement benefits and compensated leave) are not discounted to its present value and are determined by the best estimate of the outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These are reviewed at each reporting date adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.
Warranty obligations included in this type of provisions are not treated as a separate performance obligation, unless the customer has the option of contracting the warranty separately, therefore they are recognized in accordance with Ind AS 37. These provisions are classified as current liabilities since they relate to the operating construction projects cycle, in line with Ind AS 1.
Provision towards guarantee claims in respect of ships delivered wherever provided/ maintained is based on technical estimation. For the ships delivered, guarantee claims are covered by way of insurance policies covering the guarantee period on case-to-case basis, wherever required.
Provisions for anticipated losses are recognized when it becomes apparent that the total costs expected to fulfil a contract exceed expected contract revenues. For the purpose of determining, where appropriate, the amount of the provision, budgeted contract revenue will include the forecast revenue that is considered probable, in line with Ind AS 37 as well as incremental costs. General costs are not directly attributable to a contract and are therefore excluded from the budgeted cost unless they are explicitly passed on to the counterparty in accordance with the contract, in line with paragraph 68 of Ind AS 37.
b) Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims against the Company. Where the potential liabilities have a low
probability of crystallizing or are very difficult to quantify reliably, the Company treats them as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not provided for in the Financial Statements. Although there can be no assurance regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings, Company does not expect them to have a materially adverse impact on the financial position or profitability. The Company does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the Financial Statements.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity. The Company does not recognize a contingent asset but discloses its existence in the Financial Statements where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
3.10. Asset Held for Sale
Non-current assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Such assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition and their sale is highly probable. Non¬ current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying value and fair value less costs to sell.
3.11 Revenue Recognition
a) Revenue from Operations
Revenue from contracts with customers are measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer (ie., transaction price, which is the fair value of consideration received or receivable).
At the first instance, revenue recognition process involves identifying the relevant contracts and technical evaluation of the performance obligations, contained therein.
A single performance obligation is identified in shipbuilding
and ship repair segments for each vessel, due to the high degree of integration and customization of the various goods and services forming a combined output that is transferred to the customer over time.
The Company choses the appropriate method of measuring the progress of the completion at the contract inception for recognizing revenue over time, and are applied
consistently to similar performance obligations under the respective segments and/or activities carried out thereon.
Recognition of revenue for a performance obligation satisfied over time is made only if the Company can reasonably measure its progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation.
The performance obligations for the Shipbuilding and Ship repair activities carried out by the Company are satisfied over time rather than at a point in time since the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company i.e. contractual restrictions and practical limitations to readily direct that asset for another use (even in some cases it will be able to do so, it can only be done after significant changes and at significant cost) and it has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring promised goods and services to the customer over a period of time using output method based on measurement of physical performance completed to date in respect of contracts with customers for Ship building and Ship repair other than Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC).
In respect of contract with Indian Navy for construction of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier, which is partly 'fixed price basis' and partly 'cost plus basis', the revenue
i) from fixed price portion is recognized using
output method .
ii) by way of mark up from cost plus part of the contract for procuring and supply of materials and design outsourcing is recognized when performance obligations as per the terms of the contract are fulfilled upon making payments to the suppliers.
iii) The cost of materials, value of design outsourcing and other expenses incurred for the vessel which are recoverable separately from Navy are charged off to the Statement of Profit and Loss when materials are consumed/activities are performed/expenses are incurred and are simultaneously grossed up with the value of work done and recognized as revenue.
In the case of ship repair contracts involving continuous multiple years maintenance support/ recurring and routine services, the Company opted for time-elapsed
output method, i.e, measuring the progress based on time elapsed to reporting date, which is representative of the satisfaction of performance obligation subject to entitlement of consideration in exchange of goods and/or services.
Based on the technical assessment considering the latest available information to the Company, measuring the progress towards complete satisfaction of a performance obligation in the method adopted will be revised/updated on an ongoing basis.
During the initial stages of a contract, where the Company may not be able to reasonably measure the outcome of a performance obligation and the Company expects to recover the costs incurred in satisfying the performance obligation, revenue will be recognized only to the extent of the costs incurred until such time that it can reasonably measure the outcome of the performance obligation.
Contract modifications are accounted when additions, deletions or changes are approved either to the contract scope or contract price. The accounting for modifications of contracts involves assessing whether the services added to an existing contract are distinct and whether the pricing is at the stand alone selling price. Where the goods or services added are not distinct, adjustment to revenue is made on a cumulative catch up basis. Where the goods or services added are distinct, and such additional goods or services are priced at standalone selling prices, the contract modification is accounted for as a separate contract; whereas if the modification is not priced at standalone selling price, the same is accounted as a termination of the existing contract and creation of a new contract.
The Company generally does not recognize any revenue from additional work until it has been approved by the customer. When the scope of work has been approved but the impact on revenue is yet to be valued, the "variable consideration" requirement (as explained below) will apply. This entails recognizing revenue in an amount that is unlikely to be reversed.
If the consideration promised in a contract includes variable amounts like discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, liquidated damages or other similar items, the Company estimates the net amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods or services to a customer and accounts for the same. The payment terms are based
on milestones specified in the respective contracts with customers. On achieving the specified milestones these payments are released.
Revenue from Supply of Base & Depot Spares is recognized based on the satisfaction of performance obligation at a point in time on proof of receipt of goods from customer.
Unlike revenue recognition, amounts billed to the customer are based on the various milestones reached under the contract and on acknowledgement thereof by the customer by means of a contractual document referred to as a progress billing certificate. Therefore, the amounts recognized as revenue for a given year do not necessarily match those billed to or certified by the customer. For contracts in which the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed or certified, the difference is recognized in as "Contract Asset" under "Other Current Assets", while for contracts in which the revenue recognized is lower than the amount billed or certified, the difference is recognized as "Contract Liability" under "Other Current Liabilities".
Other Operating Revenue with respect to sale of stock items, scrap and consultancy income is recognized at a point in time when the Company satisfies performance obligations and right to receive the income is established as per terms of the contract by transferring promised goods and services to the customer.
Management fee is also recognized over a period of time.
b) Government Grants
Government Grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government Grants are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes as expenses, the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Where the Grant relates to an asset value, it is recognized as deferred income, and amortized over the expected useful life of the asset. Other grants are recognized in the statement of Profit & Loss concurrent to the expenses to which such grants relate/ are intended to cover.
Ship Building Financial Assistance (SBFA) is recognized
over a period of time in proportion to the expenses / cost incurred and classified under "Revenue from Operations".
Government Grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Company with no future related costs are recognized in statement of profit & loss in the period in which they become receivable.
c) Other income
i) Liquidated damages and interest on advances
No income is recognized on (a) interest on advances given and (b) liquidated damages, where the levies depend on decisions regarding force majeure condition of contract. These are accounted for on completion of contracts and / or when final decisions are taken.
In the case of contracts entered into for execution of capital works having long gestation period, where the extant commercial terms of the contract provides for provision of extending interest bearing mobilisation advance to the service provider for mobilising various resources for timely execution, mobilisation advances are paid and interest is accounted on accrual basis.
ii) Accounting for insurance claims
(i) Warranty/Builder Risk claims
In the case of guarantee defects covered under warranty insurance policies or claims under Insurance Policies taken for ship building and ship repair works, the insurance claims lodged are recognized in the Financial Statements in the year in which the survey is completed and the probable amount of settlement is intimated by the insurance Company.
(ii) Other Insurance Policies
In the case of other Insurance Policies like Asset Insurance, Transit Insurance, Marine Insurance, Cash Insurance etc., the claims are recognized in the Financial Statements on settlement of the claims by way of receipt of the amount from the Insurance Company.
In the case of Medical insurance, claims are recognized on due basis, based on the claims submitted with the Insurance Company.
Other items of income are accounted as and when the right to receive such income arises and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
3.12 Employee benefits
Employee benefits consist of salaries and wages, contribution to provident fund, superannuation fund, gratuity fund, National Pension Scheme towards medical assistance, which are short term in nature and contribution towards compensated absences, which is long term in nature.
Post-employment benefit plans
i) Defined Contribution plans
Defined contribution to Employees Pension scheme for eligible employees is made to National Pension Scheme (NPS) and are charged as expense as they fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company does not carry any further obligations, apart from the contributions made.
The Company makes contributions to the Cochin Shipyard Employees Mutual Public Welfare Trust and Employees Medical Assistance Trusts, which are charged as expense, as and when they fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company does not carry any further obligations, apart from the contributions made.
ii) Defined benefit plans
Gratuity
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The fund is managed by the trustees of the Cochin Shipyard Ltd Group Gratuity Trust .The liability or asset recognized in the balance sheet in respect of its defined benefit plan 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 periodically by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the said obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows, using market yields of government bonds that have terms approximating the terms of the related liability.
The interest income / (expense) are calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The net interest income / (expense) on the net defined benefit liability or asset is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in Statement of Profit and Loss as past service cost.
Provident Fund and Pension Scheme
The Company also makes contribution towards provident fund. The provident fund is administered by the Trustees of the Cochin Shipyard Limited Employees Contributory Provident Fund Trust. The rules of the Company's provident fund administered by the Trust, require that if the Board of Trustees are unable to pay interest at the rate declared by the Government under para 60 of the Employees' Provident Fund Scheme, 1952, then the deficiency shall be made good by the Company. The deficiency, if any assessed by the Company based on actuarial valuation will be provided for in the accounts.
Other employee benefits Compensated absences
The Company has a policy on compensated absence which are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absence is determined by Actuarial valuation performed by an independent actuary at
each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be paid/availed as a result of unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on non-accumulating compensated absence is recognised in the period in which the absences occur.
3.13 Taxes on Income
a) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the year.
Current and deferred taxes are recognized in Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
The Company has determined that interest and penalties related to income taxes, including uncertain tax treatments, do not meet the definition of income taxes, and therefore accounted for them under Ind AS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets.
b) Current tax
Current tax is measured at the amount of tax expected to be payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. 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 the tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are offset, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis.
c) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized using the Balance Sheet approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising
between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that either future taxable profits or reversal of deferred tax liabilities will be available, against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.
The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset shall be reviewed at the end of each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognized deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognized outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are off set when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
3.14 Operating Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the Chairman & Managing Director.
The Company has identified business segments (industry practice) as reportable segments. The business segments comprise: 1) Ship Building and 2) Ship Repair
Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified to segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities which relate to the Company as a whole and are not allocable to segments on a reasonable basis have been included under "unallocated revenue / expenses / assets / liabilities".

Utilisation : Out of the issue proceeds of H2300 Lakhs received, the Company has fully utilised/adjusted funds towards various expenditure incurred on International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF) project.
Difference between carrying amounts and fair values of financial liabilities of borrowings is not significant in each of the year presented.
*The Company has incurred expenditure amounting to H 40,802.45 Lakhs up to March 31, 2026 (Previous year: H 40,690.02 Lakhs) towards augmentation of infrastructure facilities for the construction of the Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC) out of funds received from the Indian Navy. The ownership of the assets created out of these funds vests with the Indian Navy.
Out of the aforesaid expenditure, the Company has identified assets amounting to H 17,856 Lakhs (Previous year: H17856 Lakhs) proposed to be taken over by the Company, for which a formal proposal has already been submitted to the Indian Navy. Pending transfer of ownership and finalisation of the takeover value with the Indian Navy, such assets have not been capitalised in the books of account of the Company.
The Company continues to utilise these assets for various shipbuilding operations, including projects of the Indian Navy other than the IAC. Upon finalisation and mutual agreement of the takeover value with the Indian Navy, the said assets will be capitalised in the books of the Company.
Stock of raw materials and bought out components procured under "Cost Plus" part of the IAC contract amounting to H3148.87 Lakhs (previous year H4746.37 Lakhs) held on behalf of Indian Navy lying with the Company is adjusted against Advances from Indian Navy for Indigenous Aircraft Carrier.
During the Financial Year 2022-23, the Company has handed over the Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC P-71) to Indian Navy in accordance with the contract for the construction of IAC P-71. The Company has raised Invoice for H 1915000 Lakhs on achievement of the delivery milestone of the contract. The balance scope of work are being completed subsequently as per the construction contract.
The Company has created provision towards contractual warranties in respect of vessels delivered, generally covering a period of 12 months from the date of delivery. Under these warranties, the Company undertakes to rectify defects arising from design,material,workmanship and other specified deficiencies. The outflows relating to warranty obligations are expected to arise over the warranty period from the date of delivery of vessels. The Company generally takes an insurance policy to cover risks associated with warranty obligations on new build vessels. The management believes that the insurance coverage will substantially mitigate the financial impact of warranty claims.
1. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring promised goods and services to the customer over a period of time using output method based on measurement of physical performance completed to date. Output method faithfully depicts the Company's performance towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation and gives a clear picture of Company's efforts and hence the same is being adopted to depict the performance completed to date.
2. Refer Note No 45 on Ind AS 115 "Revenue from Contract with Customers".
3. Out of the Revenue from Operations, H110570.34 Lakhs (H53,436.82 Lakhs in previous year) pertain to revenue from export orders.
4. The Company has considered the lock down period due to COVID 19 & Gol circular dated May 13, 2020, which ever is applicable to the projects and Kerala Flood natural calamity 2018 as Force Majeure period for computation of Liquidated Damages while calculating Revenue from operations.
5. The Company is executing shipbuilding contracts with the Andaman & Nicobar (A&N) Administration for the construction of two 1200-passenger vessels (yard nos. SH.0023 and SH.0024). The contractual delivery dates, as extended, have expired for both vessels as on 29 April 2023 for vessel SH.0023, and 30 October 2023 for vessel SH.0024.
The two vessels are customized and designed for specific operations between Andaman Islands and Main Land. Subsequently based on a request from the A&N Administration, the Company has abated delivery activity, as the Administration has sought reallocation of the vessels to other prospective buyers. However, such reallocation would necessitate significant technical modifications and cost, and the vessels, in their current state, are considered to have no alternative use.
Given that the Company continues to have a valid and enforceable contract with the A&N Administration, and there is no current mutual termination or novation of the contract, no additional provision for LD has been recognized beyond 29 April 2023 and 30 October 2023, respectively, for SH.0023 and SH.0024 for reason of abated delivery at the request of the buyer. In accordance with the terms of the contract and based on prudent estimates, the Company has recognized provision for liquidated damages (LD) up to the aforementioned dates.
The cumulative percentage of completion for the two vessels as on March 31, 2026 is 54.84 percent for SH.0023 and 55.19 percent for SH.0024. The total liquidated damages for SH.0023 is H 11814.08 Lakhs and for SH.0024 is H 9756.34 Lakhs up to the financial year 2025-26. The Company has recognized revenue to the tune of H 16944.49 Lakhs towards SH.0023 and H 17158.03 Lakhs towards SH.0024 upto March 31,2026 after considering the liquidated damages.
The Andaman & Nicobar (A&N) Administration has now renewed their interest in one vessel with modification to suit their current requirements. The Union Territory of Lakshadweep Administration (UTLA) has also similarly indicated their willingness for the second vessel with modifications as per their requirement. The modifications are in discussion with the two administrations. Both administrations have confirmed their willingness to take over each vessel in its current under-construction state, subject to the necessary modifications. The Company continues to monitor developments related to this contract and will review its accounting estimates and provisioning requirements in subsequent periods as more information becomes available.
It is anticipated that the eventual sale of the vessel to a new customer will cover the various costs incurred during the construction and abatement period. The new price for the vessel is likely to be higher primarily due to significant inflation in shipbuilding costs over recent years, which alter the vessel's market value.
6. The Government of India provides Ship Building Financial Assistance (SBFA) to promote domestic shipbuilding under the original
Ship Building Financial Assistance Policy (SBFAP) and the revised Ship Building Financial Assistance Scheme (SBFAP 2.0). These schemes are aimed at compensating the cost incurred in the construction of vessels and not for any operational losses.
In accordance with the respective SBFA policy guidelines, financial assistance is available only for vessels that are constructed and delivered within the stipulated period and are covered under an in-principle approval obtained from the Directorate General of Shipping. For vessels governed by the Modified Guidelines for implementation of the Shipbuilding Financial Assistance
Scheme (SBFAS), eligibility is further subject to fulfilling mandatory criteria, including successful milestone-based assessments and meeting domestic content requirements as follows:
A. Domestic content between 30% and 39% - Eligible for SBFA on a pro rata basis (proportionate to the actual domestic content achieved).
B. Domestic content of 40% and above - Eligible for 100% SBFA (full assistance as per the scheme).
The Company recognizes SBFA income over the construction period of the eligible vessels, in proportion to the cost incurred, provided the conditions under the policy are met or are reasonably expected to be met.
Where there is uncertainty regarding compliance with any of the policy conditions, such as delays in construction or delivery timelines, falling short of the mandatory domestic value addition thresholds, or failing to clear independent milestone validations resulting in non-fulfilment of eligibility criteria, the Company either does not recognize the SBFA income or derecognizes the income previously recognized, as appropriate. Such contingencies are assessed regularly, and necessary accounting adjustments are made to reflect the revised expectations.
During the current financial year the Company has recognised the financial assistance amounting to H6.14 Lakhs in respect of delivered vessels as income for the current year.
During the current financial year, upon the Company's request under the Institutional Mechanism, the MoPSW granted additional time for the delivery of vessels. Accordingly, the Company has re-recognised financial assistance amounting to H6818.75 Lakhs in respect of vessels under construction as income for the current year.
With regard to vessels under construction, the Company has recognized financial assistance income of H15628.90 Lakhs towards Ship Building Financial Assistance from Govt. of India, in order to compensate the cost incurred by the Company in building the vessels. As on the reporting date, the cumulative income accrued amounting to H27651.56 Lakhs on account of financial assistance is subject to the fulfilment of conditions stipulated in the Guidelines for Shipbuilding Financial Assistance Policy (SBFAP), as amended from time to time.
The Company while determining the pricing of the vessels, factor the Ship Building Financial Assistance (SBFA) which is an integral component of the shipbuilding process. Accordingly, during the year, the Company has regrouped the SBFA under 'Sale of product' which was hitherto grouped under 'Other operating revenue' to give a more realistic picture.The same has no financial impact on the revenue from operations.
7. Cochin Shipyard Ltd (CSL) commenced ship repair operations at Marine Dockyard Port Blair, under the ownership of Andaman and Nicobar Administration (A&N Adminstration) effective from 2019 onwards. Pursuant to the Agreement signed on 28 Nov 2019, with the A&N Administration, CSL is responsible for assisting the Administration to set up a Ship repair ecosystem at A&N islands and focussing efforts on Skill Development in the Islands, in consultation with the Administration and Technical Institutions located there. In consideration of the services, the Company is eligible for a management fee, which is accounted on pro rata basis in the Financial Statements.
8. During the year the Company has regrouped the Management fee under 'Sale of services' which was hitherto grouped under 'Other operating revenue' to give a more realistic picture. The same has no financial impact on the revenue from operations.
9. Revenue from operation includes revenue from contract for construction and supply of eight numbers of Anti -Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Crafts (ASW SWC) to the Indian Navy. Pursuant to a customer clarification on the delivery schedule, the due dates for subsequent vessels are calculated from the actual delivery date of the first vessel. Accordingly, LD has been provided only for the first vessel (where delayed). No LD has been provided for the subsequent vessels, as their expected delivery dates are within the prescribed contractual schedule.
10. In respect of ship repair contracts with the Indian Navy, revenue is recognised over time using the output method based on physical progress of work completed to date. Mandatory spares provided under these contracts are not distinct performance obligations, as they are integral to and inseparable from the repair service. The vessel cannot be repaired without consuming them, and the customer cannot benefit from the spares independently of the repair. Accordingly, mandatory spares are treated as part of a single performance obligation (repair of the vessel), and their cost is included within the total contract value for revenue recognition. Percentage completion determined for the vessel captures the consumption of mandatory spares issued for repair up to the reporting date; hence no separate measurement or recognition of revenue against mandatory spares is undertaken.
11. The Company reassesses the measurement progress of its performance obligation under the output method as mandated by Ind AS 115 at every reporting date. During the financial year 2024-25, the Company noticed that on application of Ind AS 21, the existing measurement resulted in variations in faithful representation of revenue in the case of export contracts denominated in foreign currency. In order to address the same, the Company refined its quantification approach for the said contracts. Revenue is recognised by applying the physical completion percentage on the total transaction price, which the Company is entitled to, without bifurcating between material and service portions. The effect of change in the quantification measure has resulted in increase in revenue from operations for H Nil (Previous year H 11808.65 Lakhs).The Company is consistently adopting this measurement technique in recognising revenue for contracts involving similar performance obligations.
The Company had initiated construction of two 60-ton green tug hulls during the Financial year 2024-25 as part of Green Tug Transition Programme (GTTP) as a significant initiative introduced by the Government of India focussing on the reduction of carbon emissions in the maritime sector. Subsequently, in January 2026, the Company received an order from a private customer for the construction of two 60-ton green tugs. Consequently, the expenses incurred in respect of the above tugs have been transferred from Work-in-Progress (WIP) and charged to profit and loss account during the financial year 2025-26.
Contribution to Provident Fund and Family Pension Fund includes provident fund inspection and administration charges H 29.64 Lakhs (previous year H 28.07 Lakhs).
Salaries, Wages, bonus/exgratia and allowances includes provision for encashment of half pay compensated absences for workmen amounting to H(5.27) Lakhs (previous year H103.82 Lakhs).
The employee benefits accruing to the employees on deputation from Cochin Port Trust and Mumbai Port Trust are being accounted based on demands received from Cochin Port Trust & Mumbai Port Trust as per tripartite agreement between the Company, Cochin Port Trust & Mumbai Port Trust and the recognised Trade unions of the Port and not based on actuarial valuation except for gratuity which is actuarially valued.
Post-employment obligations
CSL has recognized the gratuity liability for on-contract workmen as of March 31, 2026, based on actuarial valuations completed for FY 2025-26, consequent to the Gazzette Notification of the labour code. No additional provisions are required for Officers, Supervisors, or Workmen, as their current wage components already exceed the 50% threshold for PF and gratuity calculations. Similarly, leave encashment liabilities remain unchanged because existing actuarial provisions sufficiently cover regular staff, while contract employees do not carry forward enough leave to trigger new liabilities. The restructuring of consolidated pay for contract workers is designed to be cost-neutral, ensuring that total gross pay and related financial outgoings remain stable. Consequently, CSL has mitigated potential compliance risks through proactive liability entries and internal committee reviews without incurring significant unprovided expenses.
Provident fund
Provident Fund for eligible employees is managed by the Company through a trust in line with the Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provision Act,1952. The plan guarantees interest at the rate notified by the Provident Fund Authorities. The contribution by the employees and employer @12% of basic salary (including Dearness Allowance) together with the interest accumulated thereon are payable to employees at the time of separation from the Company or retirement whichever is earlier. The benefits vests immediately on rendering of the services by the employee. The contribution is charged to Statement of Profit and Loss of the year when the
contributions to the respective funds are due in accordance with relevant statute. Employer's contribution to Provident Fund & Pension fund is H1980.54 Lakhs for the year 2025-26 (H1872.67 Lakhs for the year 2024-25). The minimum interest rate payable by the trust to the beneficiaries every year is notified by the Government. The Company has an obligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of the trust (including investment risk fall) and the notified interest rate, which is determined on the basis of actuarial valuation
The Company has obtained report on the determination and disclosure of interest rate Guarantee, valuation of Assets & Liabilities as per Ind AS 19 of Employees Benefits relating to Exempt Provident Fund for the period ended March 31, 2026.

Note 54 : FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable and consist of the following three levels:
Level I inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level II inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level III inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The following table summarises financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and financial assets that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Note:
1. The investments in equity instruments are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium or long term strategic purpose.The Company has chosen to designate these investments in equity instruments of Subsidiary at cost (as per Ind AS 27 ) and other equity instruments at FVTOCI (as per Ind AS 109), as the Company believe that this provides a more meaningful presentation of medium or long term strategic investments, than reflecting changes in fair value immediately in profit or loss. The investments in debt instruments are not held for trading. Upon the application of Ind AS 109, the Company has chosen to designate these investments at Amortised Cost.
Investments included in level 3 of fair value hierarchy have been valued using the cost approach to arrive at their fair value.The cost of unquoted investments approximate the fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair value measurements and the cost represents estimate of fair value within that range.
There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 in the period.
2. Loans, Borrowings are at the market rates and therefore the carrying value is the fair value.
3. The carrying amount of trade receivables are considered to be the same as their fair value due to their short term nature.
4. For financial liabilities (trade and other payables and security deposits), fair value at amortised cost is determined by using discounted cash flow method; amortised on an aggregated basis and on straight line, as their individual impact is not considered material. Appropriate market borrowing rate of the Company as of each balance sheet date is used for discounting.
5. Difference between carrying amounts and fair values of bank deposits, other financial assets,short term loans, other financial liabilities and borrowings subsequently measured at amortised cost is not significant in each of the years presented.
Note 55 : Financial Risk Management Policy
Financial Risk Management Objective and Policies:
The Company's principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise of loans and borrowings, trade and other payables and advances from customers. The Company's principal financial assets include Investment, loans and advances, trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances that derive directly from its operations. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management as well as policies covering specific areas such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment of excess liquidity. The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivatives for speculative purposes.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial assets will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk, being mainly commodity price risk. Financial Assets affected by market risk include loans and advances, deposits and derivative financial instruments.
A. 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 is minimal since the exposure relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt obligations of redeemable non-convertible bonds with fixed interest rates as disclosed in Note 24 . With the current profile of fixed rate borrowing, the Company is not sensitive to interest rate fluctuations.
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because the Company borrows working capital funds benchmarked to overnight Treasury Bills, RBI Repo, six months EURO Inter Bank Offered Rate (EURIBOR)
B. Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company's operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency).
Foreign currency risk of the Company is managed through a properly documented risk management policy approved by the board. The Board of directors also reviews the foreign currency exposure of the Company on quarterly basis. The Company manages the net foreign currency risk mainly by entering into forward contracts with the bank as the counter party. The disclosures of outstanding forward contract as on reporting date is given in Note 47.
The Company's exposure to foreign currency risk net of hedged exposure at the end of the reporting period expressed in INR (foreign currency amount multiplied by closing rate) are as follows:
The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the purchase of steel, major machineries, equipments etc. The Company primarily purchases its raw materials in the open market from third parties. The Company is therefore subject to fluctuations in prices for the purchase of steel, being the primary raw material inputs. The Company aims to sell the finished products based on firm contract which is negotiated after due consideration of the expected raw material prices. Therefore, the Company plans its purchases closely to optimise the price. Further since the products are of a specific nature which does not entail competition and is heterogeneous in nature due to its specification, the Company's exposure to commodity risk is minimal.
The following table details the Company's sensitivity to a 5% movement in the input price of steel. The sensitivity analysis includes only 5% change in commodity prices for quantity consumed during the year, with all other variables held constant.
D. Liquidity Risk
The risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk may arise from an inability to sell a financial asset quickly at a rate close to its fair value.
The Company requires funds both for short term operational needs as well as for long term capital expenditure growth projects. The Company generates sufficient cash flow for operations, which together with the available cash and cash equivalents provides liquidity in the short-term and long- term and manages the liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities as depicted below.
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables and advances to suppliers) and from its exposure to other financial assets, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, derivative instruments, and other financial instruments. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with counterparties that have sufficiently high credit rating in order to manage the credit risk. Trade receivables mainly comprise of government entities and the cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments are maintained with banks and recognised financial institutions with high credit rating.
For trade receivables, as a practical expedient the Company computes credit loss allowance based on a provision matrix which considers historically observed default rates over expected life of trade receivables, adjusted for forward looking estimates. The movement in expected credit loss allowance is disclosed in Note 15.
The Company's maximum exposure to the credit risk for the components of Balance Sheet as March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 is the carrying amounts mentioned in Note no 15 and as stated in Note 53, around 73.20%(approx) of Company's turnover and 79.19% (approx.) of trade receivables and customer advance is with respect to Government and Govt. regulated entities. The maximum exposure relating to financial derivative instruments and financial guarantees is disclosed in Note 47 and Note 49 respectively.
The Company has two major business segments -"shipbuilding" and "ship repair". Revenue under shipbuilding includes H158820.82 Lakhs (previous year: H206665.27 Lakhs) from two customers (previous year: two customers) having 59.90% revenue of the total Shipbuilding revenue, and for ship repair includes H100833.29 Lakhs (previous year: H153005.55 Lakhs) from two customers (previous year: two customers) having 60.88% in total of the total ship repair revenue.
