Provisions
The Company recognizes a provision when there
is a present legal or constructive obligation as a
result of a past event that probably requires an
outflow of resources and a reliable estimate can
be made of the amount of the obligation.
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. 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 an interest
expense.
Contingent Liability
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made
when there is a possible obligation or a present
obligation that may, but probably will not, require
an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible
obligation or a present obligation that the
likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no
provision or disclosure is made.
(m) Revenue from Operations
i. Sale of Goods
The Company's revenue contracts represent a
single performance obligation to sell its products
to trade customers. Sales are recorded at the time
control of the products is transferred to trade
customers, in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Company expects to be entitled
to in exchange for the products. Control is the
ability of trade customers to direct the use of and
obtain the benefit from our products. In evaluating
the timing of the transfer of control of products to
trade customers, the Company considers transfer
of significant risks and rewards of products and the
probability of flowing of future economic benefit to
the Entity as per the terms of the Contract which
usually coincide with the delivery of the goods. The
Company has generally concluded that it acts as
the principal in its revenue arrangements, as it
typically maintains control over the goods or
services prior to their transfer to the customer.
Revenue is measured on the basis of contracted
price and reduced by variable consideration.
Variable consideration includes sales returns,
trade discounts, volume based incentives, and
cost of promotional programs, indirect taxes as
may be applicable.
The Company provides volume based incentives to
certain customers once the quantity of products
purchased during the period exceeds a threshold
specified in the contract. Incentives are offset
against amounts payable by the customer. To
estimate & recognize a liability for the incentives,
the Company applies methods which best predicts
the amount of incentive and is primarily driven by
the number of volume thresholds contained in the
contract. The volume incentive is estimated at
contract inception and recognized when it is highly
probable that significant revenue reversal will not
occur.
Company's contracts with trade customers do
not have significant financing components or
non-cash consideration and the Company does
not have unbilled revenue or significant amounts
of prepayments from customers.
The company pays sales commission to its
employees for contract that they obtain for sales
of goods and immediately expensed out sales
commissions (included under employee benefits).
Contract Balances
Contract Liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer
goods or services to a customer for which the
Company has received consideration (or an
amount of consideration is due) from the customer.
If a customer pays consideration before the
Company transfers goods or services to the
customer, a contract liability is recognized when the
payment is made or the payment is due (whichever
is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as
revenue when the Company performs its obligation
to transfer goods or services under the contract.
ii. Service Income
Service Income is recognized on cost plus basis as
per the terms of the contract with customers, as
and when the service is performed.
iii. Interest Income
Interest income from debt instruments is
recognized using the effective interest rate method.
The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash receipts through
the expected life of the financial asset to the gross
carrying amount of a financial asset. When
calculating the effective interest rate, the Company
estimates the expected cash flows by considering
all the contractual terms of the financial instrument
but does not consider the expected credit losses.
iv. Rental Income
Rental income from operating leases where the
Company is a lessor is recognized in income on a
straight-line basis over the lease term unless the
receipts are structured to increase in line with
expected general inflation to compensate for
the expected inflationary cost increases. The
respective leased assets are included in the
balance sheet based on their nature.
v. Government Grant
Government grants are recognized where there is
reasonable assurance that the grant will be
received, and all attached conditions will be
complied with. When the grant relates to an
expense item, it is recognized as income on a
systematic basis over the periods that the related
costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are
expensed. Ind AS 20 permits the grant to be
recognized in profit or loss. The Company has
chosen to present grants related to an expense
item as other operating income in the statement
of profit and loss.
(n) Employee Benefits
i. Short Term Employee Benefits
Liabilities for salaries, wages and performance
incentives including non-monetary benefits that
are expected to be settled wholly within twelve
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. The liabilities are presented
as current employee benefits obligations in the
Balance Sheet.
ii. Long Term Employee Benefits
• Defined Contribution Plans
Provident Fund, Superannuation Fund and
Employee's State Insurance:
The Company has Defined Contribution Plans
for its employees such as Provident Fund,
Superannuation Fund, Employee's State
Insurance etc. and contribution to these plans
are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss
as incurred, as the Company has no further
obligation beyond making the contributions.
• Defined Benefit Plans
Gratuity:
The Company provides for gratuity, a defined
benefit plan (the "Gratuity Plan") covering
eligible employees in accordance with the
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The Gratuity
Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested
employees at retirement, death, incapacitation
or termination of employment, of an amount
based on the respective employee's salary and
the tenure of employment. The Company's
liability is determined by the Actuary (using the
Projected Unit Credit method) at the end of
each year. The benefits are discounted using the
market yields at the end of the reporting period
that have terms approximating to the terms of
the related obligation. 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. Changes in
the present value of the defined benefit
obligation resulting from plan amendments or
curtailments are recognized immediately in the
Statement of profit and loss as past service
cost. Remeasurements are not reclassified to
Profit or Loss in subsequent periods.
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.
Provident Fund:
In respect of certain employees, Provident Fund
contributions are made to a Trust administered
by the Company. The 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 investment of the
trust and interest as per the notified rate. The
Company's liability is determined by the Actuary
(using the Projected Unit Credit Method) at the
end of the year. Measurement 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. Changes in
the present value of the defined benefit
obligation resulting from plan amendments or
curtailments are recognized immediately in the
Statement of profit and loss as past service
cost. Remeasurements are not reclassified to
Profit or Loss in subsequent periods.
Compensated Absences:
Accumulated compensated absences, which
are expected to be availed or encashed within
12 months from the end of the year and are
treated as short term employee benefits. The
obligation towards the same is measured at the
expected cost of accumulating compensated
absences as the additional amount expected
to be paid as a result of the unused entitlement
as at the year end.
Accumulated compensated absences, which
are expected to be availed or encashed beyond
12 months from the end of the year end are
treated as other long term employee benefits.
The Company's liability is actuarially determined
(using the Projected Unit Credit method) at the
end of each year. Actuarial losses/gains are
recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss
in the year in which they arise.
Voluntary Retirement Scheme:
Expenditure on voluntary retirement scheme is
charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in
the year in which incurred.
Share Based Payments
The Company does not provide any equity-
based compensation to its employees.
However, the parent Company, Colgate
Palmolive Company, U.S.A. ("the grantor")
maintains equity incentive plans that provide
for the grant of stock-based awards to its
executive directors and certain categories of
officers and employees. The 2009 Executive
Incentive Compensation Plan and 2013
Incentive Compensation Plan ("Incentive Plan")
provides for the grant of non-qualified and
incentive stock options, as well as restricted
stock units which are together referred to as
employee stock options. Exercise prices in the
case of non-qualified and incentive stock
options are not less than the fair value of the
underlying common stock of the grantor on the
date of grant.
A stock option gives an employee, the right to
purchase shares of Colgate Palmolive Company
common stock at a fixed price for a specific
period of time. Stock options generally have a
term of six years and vest over three years.
A restricted stock unit (RSU) provides an
employee with a share of Colgate Palmolive
Company common stock upon vesting.
Restricted stock units vest in annual installments
generally over a period of three years. Dividends
will accrue with each restricted stock unit award
granted subsequent to grant date.
Employee Stock Options (ESOPs') issued by
the parent entity are accounted for as equity-
settled as the Company has no obligation to
settle the share-based payment transaction
and also the shares are of parent Company.
Company recognizes the expense over the
vesting period, which is the period over which
all of the specified vesting conditions are to be
satisfied, as determined on the grant date,
based on the fair value of the options/RSUs. At
the end of each period, the entity revises its
estimates of the number of options that are
expected to vest based on the non-market
vesting and service conditions. It recognizes
the impact of the revision to original estimates,
if any, in the Statement of Profit and Loss, with
a corresponding adjustment to equity.
In case where there is a clear link between the
recharge from the parent company and the
expense, Company accounts for the recharge
as capital distribution even if the amount of
recharge is more than the expense recognized
over the vesting period (as the recharge is
based on the intrinsic value).
In case where the employee has not served
the Company during the vesting period and for
which they get the debit note from parent, the
cost is debited to management recharge
expense.
Further, where the management recharge is not
expected from the parent entity as the
employee has been relocated to another group
company i.e. the employee is not expected to
render future services to the Company at the
time of exercise of option, the Company
transfers the proportionate amount of share
options outstanding account related to such
employees to Retained Earnings, after taking
into consideration the probability of employees
re-locating back to the Company.
(o) Income Tax
Tax expense for the period, comprising current tax
and deferred tax, are included in the
determination of the net profit or loss for the
period. Current tax is measured at the amount
expected to be paid to the tax authorities in
accordance with prevailing income tax law.
Management periodically evaluates positions
taken in the tax returns with respect to situations
in which applicable tax regulations are subject to
interpretation and establishes provisions where
appropriate.
The Company evaluates whether it has any
uncertain tax positions which requires adjustments
to provision for current tax. The Company has
ongoing disputes with Income Tax Authorities on
various matters. In respect of certain allowance /
deductions, it is probable that such positions will
not be accepted by Tax authorities and hence the
same has been considered and adequately
provided for while calculating current tax provision
of the respective years. In respect of certain
allowances / deductions taken by the Company, it
is probable that such disputes will be accepted by
Tax authorities and hence the same have been
considered and disclosed as a part of Contingent
Liability.
• Current Tax
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.
• Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is recognized for all the deductible
temporary differences by using the balance
sheet approach, only to the extent that there is
a reasonable certainty that sufficient future
taxable income will be available against which
such deferred tax assets can be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using the tax rates and tax laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the
Balance Sheet date. At each Balance Sheet
date, the Company reassesses unrecognized
deferred tax assets, if any.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized
outside profit or loss is recognized either in
other comprehensive income or in equity.
Deferred tax items are recognized in correlation
to the underlying transaction either in OCI or
directly in equity. 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 asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
are offset when there is a legally enforceable
right to set off assets against liabilities
representing current tax and where the
deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
relate to taxes on income levied by the same
governing taxation laws.
(p) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner
consistent with the internal reporting provided to
the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The
CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources
and assessing performance of the operating
segments, has been identified as the Managing
Director and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company. The Company has identified 'Personal
Care (including Oral Care)' as its only primary
reportable segment, which primarily includes
products such as Soaps, Cosmetics and Toiletries.
(q) Statement of Cash Flow
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method,
whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the
effects of transactions of non-cash nature and
any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash
receipts or payments.
(r) Offsetting Financial Instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the
net amount reported in the balance sheet when
there is a legally enforceable right to offset the
recognized amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and
settle the liability simultaneously.
(s) Contributed Equity
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the
issue of new shares or options are shown in equity
as a deduction, net of tax.
(t) Earnings Per Share
i. Basic Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing:
• the profit attributable to owners of the
Company
• By the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the financial year.
ii. Diluted Earnings Per Share
Diluted earnings per share adjust the figures used
in the determination of basic earnings per share
to take into account:
• the after income tax effect of interest and
other financing costs associated with dilutive
potential equity shares, and
• The weighted average number of additional
equity shares that would have been
outstanding assuming the conversion of all
dilutive potential equity shares.
2. Significant Accounting Estimates and
Judgments
The preparation of financial statements requires the
use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will
seldom equal the actual results. This note provides an
overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of
judgment or complexity, and of items which are more
likely to be materially adjusted due to estimates and
assumptions turning out to be different than those
originally assessed. Detailed information about each
of these estimates and judgments is included in
relevant notes.
The areas involving significant estimates or judgments
are:
- Estimation of defined benefit obligation (Refer
Note 1B(n) and Note 28)
- Estimation of Useful life of Property, plant and
equipment and intangibles (Refer Note 1B(c) and
Note 3)
- Estimation of taxes (Refer Note 1B(o), Note 19
and 31)
- Estimation of provision and contingent liabilities
(Refer Note 1B(l)(iv), Note 24 and 32)
- Estimation of variable consideration in respect of
revenue recognition (Refer Note 1B(m) and Note
25)
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated.
They are based on historical experience and other
factors, including expectations of future events
that may have a financial impact on the Company
and that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances.
3. Standards Notified but not yet Effective
The new and amended standards that are notified by
the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), but not yet
effective, up to the date of issuance of the
Company's financial statements are disclosed below.
The Company will adopt these amendments to the
standards, when they become effective.
(i) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification of Liabilities
as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities
with Covenants
In accordance with Ind AS 1 currently applicable,
breach of an immaterial covenant is ignored deciding
in current vs. non-current classification of liabilities.
Also, in case of breach of a material covenant of a
non-current loan on or before the reporting date, the
entity can obtain waiver from the lender after the
reporting date and continue to classify the loan as
non-current liability.
In accordance with changes to Ind AS 1 already
notified by the MCA, the above relaxations to classify
loan as non-current liability will not be available from
FY 2026-27 onward and need to be applied
retrospectively. Consequently:
- A breach of either material or immaterial covenant
will trigger current classification of liability.
- To continue classifying loan as non-current liability,
entities will need to obtain waiver from the breach
on or before the reporting date.
The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements
and based on it's evaluation has determined that it is
not likely to have any significant impact in it's financial
statements.
(i) Buildings include : (a) Research Centre at Powai, Mumbai, (b) Factory Building at Baddi, (c) Factory Buildings at Goa, (d) Factory Buildings at Sanand and (e)
Factory Building at Sricity.
(ii) Refer to Note 34 for disclosures of capital commitments for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment.
(iii) Buildings include investment property with net carrying value of 5 151 Lakhs (March 31, 2025 : 5 164 Lakhs) and fair value of 5 3,701 Lakhs (March 31, 2025 :
5 3,544 Lakhs). Fair value is determined based on an annual evaluation performed by an accredited external independent valuer using the sales
comparison method of valuation under market approach in which due weightages have been given to factors such as right to sell/transfer the property,
demand and prospective buyers for such type of commercial offices etc. The significant unobservable inputs considered includes total of Weighted
reconciliation is 5 23,500/- per square feet (March 31, 2025: 5 22,500/-). The rental income and depreciation expense for the year ended March 31, 2026

Note 25: Revenue from Operations (contd.)
Performance obligation
The Company's revenue contracts represent a single performance obligation to sell its products to trade customers.
Sales are recorded at contracted price at the time control of the products is transferred to trade customers, in an
amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the products. Control is
the ability of trade customers to direct the use of and obtain the benefit from our products. In evaluating the timing of
the transfer of control of products to trade customers, the Company considers transfer of significant risks and rewards
of products and the probability of flowing of future economic benefit to the entity as per the terms of the Contract
which usually co-incide with the delivery of the goods. The performance obligation for service income is satisfied as and
when the service is performed.
The payment terms include advance payment and credit given to certain customers.
The nature of goods includes personal care (including oral care) and Research and Development service income.
Variable consideration
Variable consideration includes sales returns, trade discounts, volume based incentives, and cost of promotional
programs, indirect taxes as may be applicable.

The said petition has been clubbed together with similar petitions filed before the Hon'ble Court which are being heard
together. The Court has reserved its orders on the petitions.
Note 35: Segment Information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating
Decision Maker ("CODM") of the Company. The CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing
performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer of the
Company. The Company operates only in one Business Segment i.e. 'Personal Care (including Oral Care)' which primarily
includes products such as Soaps, Cosmetics and Toiletries and the activities incidental thereto within India, hence does
not have any reportable Segments as per Ind AS 108 "Operating Segments". The performance of the Company is mainly
driven by sales made locally and hence, no separate geographical segment is identified.
Terms and conditions:
Transactions relating to dividends are on the same terms and conditions that apply to other shareholders.
Goods and Services procured or provided from/ to related parties are generally priced at arm's length. Other
reimbursement of expenses to/ from related parties is on Cost basis.
All other transactions were made on normal commercial terms and conditions and at arm's length.
All outstanding balances are unsecured and are repayable/ receivable in cash.
Note 38: Share Based Payments
(a) Employee Option Plan
The Company does not provide any equity-based compensation to its employees. However, the parent company,
Colgate-Palmolive Company, U.S.A. ('the grantor') maintains equity incentive plans that provide for the grant of
stock-based awards to its executive directors and certain categories of officers and employees. The Parent's
Incentive Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified and incentive stock options, as well as restricted stock units.
Exercise prices in the case of non-qualified and incentive stock options are not less than the fair value of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant.
A stock option gives an employee, the right to purchase shares of Colgate-Palmolive Company common stock at a
fixed price for a specific period of time. Stock options generally have a term of six years from the date of grant and
vest over a period of three years.
A restricted stock unit provides an employee with a share of Colgate-Palmolive Company common stock upon
vesting. Restricted stock units vest generally over a period of three years. Dividends will accrue with each restricted
stock unit award granted subsequent to the grant date.
Fair Value of Options Granted
The fair value at the grant date of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2026 was t 1,593 per option
(March 31, 2025 : t 1,896 per option). The fair value at grant date is determined using the Black-Scholes Model
which takes into account the exercise price, expected volatility, option's life, the share price at grant date, expected
price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the
option.
Note 38: Share Based Payments (contd.)
Fair Value of Options Granted (contd.)
The risk free interest rates are determined based on the zero-coupon sovereign bond yields with maturity equal to
the expected term of the option. The expected volatility was determined based on the volatility of the equity share
for the period of one year prior to issue of the option. Volatility calculation is based on historical stock prices using
standard deviation of daily change in stock price. The historical period is taken into account to match the expected
life of the option. Dividend yield has been calculated taking into account expected rate of dividend on equity share
price as on grant date.
