Note: 9 Leases
Accounting policy:
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.
i) Assets taken under lease
a) The Company recognises Right-of-Use (ROU) asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term at the lease commencement date. The cost of the ROU asset is measured in accordance with the measurement criteria as per Ind AS 116. The ROU asset is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of ROU asset. The estimated useful lives of ROU assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. ROU assets are tested for impairment whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment loss, if any, is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
b) The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is subsequently remeasured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and remeasuring the carrying amount to reflect any reassessment or lease modifications or to reflect revised in-substance fixed lease payments. The company recognises the amount of the re-measurement of lease liability in accordance with the requirements under Ind AS 116.
c) The Company has elected not to apply the requirements of Ind AS 116 leases to short-term leases of all assets that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense.
ii) Assets given on lease
At the inception of the lease the Company classifies each of its leases as either an operating lease or a finance lease. The Company recognises lease payments received under operating leases as income. In case of a finance lease, finance income is recognised over the lease term based on a pattern reflecting a constant periodic rate of return on the lessor's net investment in the lease.
Disclosure as per IND-AS 116
(i) The Company has adopted ind AS 116, effective annual reporting period beginning April 1, 2019 and applied the standard to its leases, retrospectively, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard, recognised on the date of initial application (April 1, 2019). The Company has also used the practical expedient provided by the standard when applying ind AS 116 to leases previously classified as operating leases under ind AS 17 and therefore, has not reassessed whether a contract, is or contains a lease, at the date of initial application, relied on its assessment of whether leases are onerous, applying ind AS 37 immediately before the date of initial application. The Company has used a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics. On transition, the Company recognised a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-of-use asset is recognised at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognised in the balance sheet immediately before the date of initial application using the practical expedient provided by the standard.
(iv) The company incurred H193.36 lakhs for the year ended March 31, 2025 (Previous year H245.91 lakhs) towards expenses relating to short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.

0 Financial risk management Financial risk factors
The Company is exposed to financial risks arising from its operations and the use of financial instruments, The key financial risks include market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, The management reviews and designs policies and procedures to minimise potential adverse effects on its financial performance, The primary market risk to the company is foreign exchange risk, The companies exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the customers repayments, The companies exposure to liquidity risks are on account of interest rate risk on borrowings, The following sections provide details regarding the companies exposure to the above mentioned financial risks and the management thereof,
Market risk
The Company operates internationally and a portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services in those countires. The exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Company's operations are affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies. The company leaves exchange rate risk with regard to foreign exposures unhedged when the local currency is depreciating against the foreign currency and hedges this risk when the local currency is appreciating against the foreign currency. Currently the foreign exchange risk of the company is covered through natural hedge and the Company uses the foreign currency denominated accounts to mitigate the exchange rate variation.
For the year ended March 31,2025 and March 31,2024, the depreciation / appreciation in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and respective unhedged foreign currency exposures, has resulted in incremental operating margins by approximate H1,042.65 lakhs and H632.40 lakhs respectively.
Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables amounting to ?38,603.05 lakhs and H35,585.75 lakhs as of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in India and overseas. Credit risk has always been managed by the company 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. On account of adoption of Ind AS 109, the company uses expected credit loss model to assess the impairment loss or gain. The company uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables. The provision matrix takes into account available external and internal credit risk factors and the companie's historical experience for customers.
Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited as the company generally invest in deposits with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international and domestic credit rating agencies with no history of default.
Liquidity risk
The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow that is generated from operations, The company also has long term and short term borrowings from banks and financial institutions, Term loans are project specific and for refinancing of capital expenditures, Short term loans repayable on demand from banks are obtained for the working capital requirements of the company,

As of March 31,2025 and March 31,2024, the outstanding gratuity and compensated absences were H449.75 lakhs and H294.77 lakhs, respectively, which have been substantially funded, Accordingly, no liquidity risk is perceived,
interest rate risk
The interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of the companies financial instruments will fluctuate because of the change in market interest rates, The company is exposed to interest rate risks as it has significant interest bearing loans from banks and financial institutions, These fluctuations are managed through negotiated and prefixed interest rates on term loans enabling the management to plan its future financial commitments and exposures, Short term and Working capital loans repayable on demand are a subject to prevailing market rate fluctuations and sanctioned facilities are availed on a need to borrow basis to ensure minimun exposure to interest rate fluctuations,
Note: 30 Revenue recognition Accounting policy:
i) Revenue from contracts with customers that meet the recognition criteria under paragraph 9 of ind AS 115 are recognised when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a customer, for the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to that performance obligation.

(b) the entity's performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in progress) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced; or
(c) the entity's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity and the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

The objective when measuring progress is to depict the company's performance in transferring control of goods or services promised to a customer (ie the satisfaction of an entity's performance obligation).
The right to payment for performance completed to date does not need to be for a fixed amount. However, at all times throughout the duration of the contract, the company is entitled to an amount that at least compensates for performance completed to date if the contract is terminated by the customer or another party for reasons other than the company's failure to perform as promised.
Output method is used for measurement where the units produced or units delivered faithfully depict the company's performance in satisfying a performance obligation and, at the end of the reporting period, the companie's performance has produced work in progress or finished goods that are not controlled by the customer.
Input method is used to recognise revenue where the company's efforts or inputs in satisfaction of a performance obligation (for example, resources consumed, labour hours expended, costs incurred, time elapsed or machine hours used) is relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation and depict the company's performance in transferring control of goods or services to the customer.
