10. Risk Management :

The company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. This note explains the sources of risk which the entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk:

a. Credit Risk: Credit Risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. Primarily exposure to the credit risk is from trade receivables amounting to ' 15,975.15 lakhs (previous year ' 14,821.81 lakhs) and unbilled revenue amounting to ' 1,283.48 lakhs (previous year ' 913.08 lakhs) which are typically unsecured. Credit risk is being managed

by continuously monitoring the outstanding dues from the customers.

Further, most of the clients of the company are Government or Government Undertakings; hence credit risk is bare minimum. Company has impaired, as a prudent measure, the trade receivables towards expected credit loss as per company accounting policy to the extent of ' 8,068.06 lakhs (previous year ' 7,641.80 lakhs). Keeping in view the nature of business expected credit loss is provided as per the policy on impairment of financial assets.

No significant credit risk on cash and

bank balances amounting to ' 2,318.41 lakhs (previous year ' 4,172.09 lakhs) is expected as company parks surplus funds with Schedule Banks having good credit adequacy ratio and least NPA as determined by RBI and guidelines of the company. Company has parked its owned funds in fixed deposits of ' 17,871.05 lakhs (previous year ' 17,675.14 lakhs) with Schedule banks with negligible credit risks.

The Company has also provided House Building Loan, Vehicle Loan and Computer Loan to the employees amounting to ' 2.58 lakhs (previous year ' 2.75 lakhs), these loans are secured and the Company does not envisage any risk from the same in nearby future.

The Company has granted interest bearing loans to its subsidiaries (incl. interest) amounting to ' 2,741.74 lakh (previous year ' 1,928.44 lakh).

b. Liquidity risk: Company's principal

source of liquidity are ""cash and bank balances"" and the cash flow that is generated from the operations. The Company has no bank borrowings and is an unleveraged entity.

The Company has a working capital of ' 32,246.86 lakh (previous year

' 24,779.71 lakh) including cash

and bank balances of ' 2,318.41 lakhs (previous year ' 4,172.09

lakhs). Fund flow statement and

investment of surplus funds is also reported in the audit committee meetings held from time to time.

Company believes that the working capital is sufficient to meet its requirements and to discharge its liabilities towards trade payables and other current liabilities as and when they fall due, accordingly no liquidity risk is being perceived by the Company.

c. Market Risk:

• Interest rate risk: The company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent of its investments in fixed deposits with banks. The company also invested in preference share

capital of its subsidiary company Utkal Ashok Hotel Corporation limited (unit is non-operative since 31.03.2004).

• Foreign currency risk: The Company has duty free shops at major sea ports in India. The foreign currency is being collected against the sale proceeds from customers at these shops.

The duty free goods for the same are purchased centrally for these shops. The Foreign currency exposure in the company is not material.

d. Capital Management:

The Company’ s capital management objectives are :

- to ensure the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern

- to provide an adequate return to shareholders

The Company monitors capital on the basis of the carrying amount of equity less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the face of balance sheet. Management assesses the Company’s capital requirements in order to maintain an efficient overall financing structure while avoiding excessive leverage.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, or sell assets to avoid debt.

was technically handed over to L&DO, MoHUA on October 31, 2017.

- In the 26th meeting of IMG dated December 4, 2017, it was decided that compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of last 10 years i.e. from 2006-07 to 2015-16 of profit before depreciation may be applied on above said average profit of last 5 years before depreciation.

inclduing unauthorised construction. Breakup of the damage charges is being collected from L&DO. After receipt of requisite details, further meeting of the valuation committee will be called.
