Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair values are consistent with those used for the year ended 31st March, 2025.
The financial instruments are categorized into three levels based on the inputs used to arrive at fair value measurements as described below:
i) Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.
ii) Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximize 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. In the case of Derivative contracts, the Company has valued the same using the forward exchange rate as at the reporting date.
iii) Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
C Calculation of fair values:
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as at Balance Sheet date:

26 Financial risk management Risk management framework
The Company's financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company's business activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risks, commodity risk and credit risk. The Company's senior management has the overall responsibility for establishing and governing the Company's risk management framework. The Company's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set and monitor appropriate risk limits and controls, periodically review the changes in market conditions and reflect the changes in the policy accordingly. The key risks and mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company.
The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financial instruments:
A) Credit risk;
B) Liquidity risk;
C) Market risk; and
D) Interest rate risk
E) Commodity Risk
A Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counter-party fails to meet its contractual obligations.
Trade and other receivables
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to Rs. 3,140.32 lacs and Rs. 3,192.76 lacs as at March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
The demographics of the customer and including the default risk of the industry, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
Other than trade and other receivables, the Company has no other financial assets that are past due but not impaired.
The Company uses an allowance matrix to measure the expected credit losses of trade receivables.
The loss rates are computed using a 'roll rate' method based on the probability of receivable progressing through successive stages of delinquency to write off.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company held cash and cash equivalents of Rs. 845.81 lacs as at 31st March, 2026 (Rs. 1683.29 lacs as at 31st March, 2025). The cash and cash equivalents are held with banks.
B Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time, or at a reasonable price.
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Company's short, medium and long term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
Exposure to liquidity risk
The following table shows the maturity analysis of the Company's financial liabilities based on contractually agreed undiscounted cash flows as at the Balance Sheet date:
C Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices - will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.
The Company operates internationally and portion of the business is transacted in several currencies. Consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in overseas and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. Exports of the company are significantly lower in comparison to its imports.
The Company holds derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange forward contract to mitigate the risk of changes in exchange rates on foreign currency exposure. The exchange rate between rupee and foreign currency has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in future. Consequently, the results of the Company’s operation are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies.
Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
The Company is mainly exposed to the currency : USD & EURO
The following table details the Company's sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in the Rupee against the relevant foreign currencies. 5% is the sensitivity rate used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. This is mainly attributable to the net exposure outstanding on receivables or payables in the Company at the end of the reporting period. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 5% charge in foreign currency rate. A positive number below indicates an increase in the profit or equity where the Rupee strengthens 5% against the relevant currency. For a 5% weakening of the Rupee against the relevant currency, there would be a comparable impact on the profit or equity, and the balances below would be negative.
The Company, in accordance with its risk management policies and procedures, enters into foreign currency forward contracts to manage its exposure in foreign exchange rate variations. The counter party is generally a bank. These contracts are for a period between one day and one year. The above sensitivity does not include the impact of foreign currency forward contracts which largely mitigate the risk.
D Interest rate risk
There is no material interest risk relating to the Company's financial liabilities which are detailed in note 13.1.
E Commodity Risk
Principal Raw Material for Company's products is variety of plastic polymers which are Derivatives of Crude Oil. Company sources its raw material requirement primarily from US Middle East and Europe. Domestic market prices are also generally remains in sync with international market price scenario.
Volatility in Crude Oil prices, Currency fluctuation of Rupee vis-a-vis other prominent currencies coupled with demand-supply scenario in the world market affect the effective price and availability of polymers for the Company. Company effectively manages with availability of material as well as price volatility through:
1. Widening its sourcing base
2. Appropriate contracts and commitments
3. Well planned procurement & inventory strategy

The contributions payable to these plans by the Company are at rates specified in the rules of the schemes.
[B] Defined benefit plan:
The Employees' gratuity fund scheme managed by LIC of India . is a defined benefit plan. The present value of obligation for gratuity and leave encashment is determined on the basis of Actuarial Valuation Report made at the year end.
The Defined Benefit Plan for Post-employment benefit of Contract Employees in the form ofgratuity is unfunded and not included in the below table and not covered by Group Gratuity Policy of LIC.
i) On normal retirement / early retirement / withdrawal / resignation: As per the provisions of Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 with vesting period of 5 years of service.
ii) On death in service: As per the provisions of Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 without any vesting period.
These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as : investment risk , interest risk , longevity risk and salary risk.
Investment risk:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create plan deficit.
Interest risk:
A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially off set by an increase in the plan assets. Longevity risk:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.
Salary risk:
The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.
1. Analysis of Defined Benefit Obligation
The number of members under the scheme have increased by 11.76% (Previous year it decreased by 1.92%). However the total salary Increased by 17.68% (previous year, it increased by 10.54%) during the accounting period.

The sensitivity analysis below 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.
k) General Assumptions
(i) Leave Policy:
Leave balance as at the valuation date and each subsequent year following the valuation date to the extent not availed by the employee accumulated up to 31 March 2026 is available for encashment on separation from the company up to a maximum of 90 days.
