will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the Statement of Profit and Loss, net of any reimbursement.
I f the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time (i.e. unwinding of discount) is recognised as a finance cost.
Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
(ii) Contingent assets / liabilities
Contingent assets are not recognised. However, when realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a contingent asset, and is recognised as an asset.
r) Provisions (i) General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits
Contingent liabilities are disclosed in notes to accounts when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made.
(iii) Asset retirement obligations
Asset retirement obligations (ARO) are provided for those operating lease
the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
This note summarises accounting policy for fair value measurement. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes.
u) Share capital Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares and share options are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
v) Exceptional items
Exceptional items include items of income or expense that are considered to be part of Company's ordinary activities which are non-recurring. However, these items are of such significance and nature that separate disclosure enables the user of financial statements to understand the impact in a more meaningful manner, facilitate comparison with comparative periods and assess underlying trends in the financial performance of the Company.
w) Non-GAAP measure of financial performance
Profit before depreciation and amortization, finance cost, finance income, charity and donation, and tax is an important measure of financial performance relevant to the users of financial statements and stakeholders of the Company. Hence, the Company presents the same as an additional line item on the face of the statement of profit and loss considering such a presentation is relevant for understanding of the Company's financial position and performance.
arrangements where the Company has a binding obligation at the end of the lease period to restore the leased premises in a condition similar to inception of lease.
ARO are provided at the present value of expected costs to settle the obligation using estimated cash flows and are recognized as part of the cost of the particular asset. The cash flows are discounted at a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the site restoration obligation. The unwinding of the discount is expensed as incurred and recognized in the statement of profit and loss as a finance cost. The estimated future costs of decommissioning are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate. Changes in the estimated future costs or in the discount rate applied are added to or deducted from the cost of the asset.
s) Earnings per share (EPS)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the period attributable to the ordinary equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Equity shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the effect of the weighted average number of equity shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential equity shares into equity shares.
t) Fair value measurement
The Company measures financial instruments at fair value at each reporting date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
• In the principal market for the asset or liability
• I n the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2- Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
• Level 3- Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in
x) Recent accounting pronouncements
New amendments adopted during the year:
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA”) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. For the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS - 117 Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind AS 116 - Leases, relating to sale and leaseback transactions, applicable to the Company w.e.f. April 1, 2024. The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation it has determined that it does not have any impact on its financial statements.
Standards notified but not yet effective:
There are no standards that are notified and not yet effective as on the date.
4.2 Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Key sources of estimation uncertainties, assumptions, and critical judgements
The management is applying judgements in the process of finalizing the Company's accounting policies and critical estimates. The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company has based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control
of the Company. Such changes are reflected in
the assumptions when they occur.
a) Leases Company as lessor
The Company has assessed that its master service agreement ("MSA”) with operators contains lease of its tower sites and plant and equipment and has determined, based on evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements such as various lessees sharing the same tower sites with specific area, the fair value of the asset and all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties retained by the Company, that such contracts are in the nature of operating lease and has accounted for as such.
Lease rentals under operating leases are recognised as income on straight line basis over the lease term.
Company as lessee
The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. In assessing whether the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive for the Company to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116, Leases. Identification of a lease requires significant judgment. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals) and the applicable discount rate. The discount rate is generally based on the incremental borrowing rate calculated as the weighted average rate specific to the portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
b) Impairment of non-financial assets
Refer note 4.1(c) for accounting policy on impairment of non- financial assets.
The carrying amounts of the Company non-financial assets, other than deferred tax assets, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount.
There is no indicator which triggers impairment of cash-generating unit ('CGU') of the Company on the reporting date. However, the Company has assessed impairment at asset level wherever necessary and if applicable it has recognised impairment charge in the statement of profit and loss.
c) Property, plant and equipment
Refer note 4.1(a) for the estimated useful life of Property, plant and equipment.
Property, plant and equipment also represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. Therefore, the estimates and assumptions made to determine their carrying value and related depreciation are critical to the Company's financial position and performance.
The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an estimate of an asset's expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. Increasing an asset's expected life or its residual value would result in a reduced depreciation charge in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The useful lives and residual values of Company assets are determined by management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically. The lives are based on historical experience with similar assets as well as anticipation of future events which may impact their life, such as changes in technology.
d) Allowances for doubtful receivables
The expected credit loss is mainly based on the ageing of the receivable balances and historical experience. Based on the industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates, management considers that the trade receivables are provided if the receipt is more than 180
days past due from related parties, 90 days past due from other customers and nil days in case of uncertainty of collection from a customer. The receivables are assessed on an individual basis or grouped into homogeneous groups and assessed for impairment collectively, depending on their significance. Moreover, trade receivables are written off on a case-to-case basis if deemed not to be collectible on the assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances.
e) Asset retirement obligation
The Company uses various leased premises to install its tower assets. A provision is recognised for the cost to be incurred for the restoration of these premises at the end of the lease period, which is estimated based on actual quotes, which are reasonable and appropriate under these circumstances. It is expected that these provisions will be utilised at the end of the lease period of the respective sites as per respective lease agreements.
f) Revenue recognition
Refer note 4.1(i) for judgements and estimates on revenue recognition.
g) Income taxes
The Company's tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/ recovered for uncertain tax positions. Significant management judgement is also required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised,
based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies, including estimates of temporary differences reversing on account of available benefits from the Income Tax Act, 1961.
h) Provisions and contingent liabilities
The Company has ongoing litigations with various regulatory authorities and third parties that arise in the ordinary course of business, the outcome of which is inherently uncertain. The Company records a liability when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews these provisions at least quarterly and adjusts these provisions accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information.
i) Employee benefits
The cost of the defined benefit plan is determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate; future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed on a half yearly basis.
e. Aggregate number and class of shares bought back during the period of five years immediately preceding the reporting date:
The Board of Directors at its meeting held on July 30, 2024 approved a proposal for buyback of upto 56,774,193 equity shares of the Company at a price of '465 per equity share, payable in cash for an aggregate amount upto '26,400 Million through tender offer process in accordance with Companies Act, 2013 and rules made thereunder, and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Buy-Back of Securities) Regulations, 2018 (the "SEBI Buyback Regulations”) as amended.

i) Stamp duty
The Company had received demand in certain states for stamp duty on execution of Leave and License Agreement of Cell Sites.
ii) Entry tax
The Hon'ble Supreme Court, in November 2016, with the nine-member bench, upheld the constitutional validity i.e. the states are empowered to design the legislation w.r.t. levy of Entry Tax.
However, the Court directed the matter to respective High Courts on the issue whether or not the respective State Entry tax Acts are discriminatory in nature.
Basis directions from Supreme Court, fresh writ petitions were filed before High Courts of several states on the ground of discrimination. The Hon'ble High Court of Allahabad in the case of Indian Oil Corporation Ltd., upheld the constitutional validity of the Uttar Pradesh Entry Tax Act followed by Hon'ble High Court of Bombay in the case of Hindustan National Glass & Industries Ltd. Recently, the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay (Goa Bench) in the case of the Company followed the judgment of High Court Allahabad & Bombay and upheld the constitutional validity of Goa Entry Tax Act.
During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company had accordingly reassessed the merits of the ongoing matters and created a provision of '1,379 Million for entry tax liability and capitalized the same in the property, plant and equipment and accordingly the impact of depreciation amounting '1,270 Million was charged in the statement of profit and loss.
Further, the Company has also taken an interest provision of '550 Million (March 31, 2024: 499 Million) due to short payment made under protest. The Company will continue to pursue legal action in all these states.
The Company has opted for Amnesty schemes in certain states for settlement of outstanding demand.
iii) Sales tax/VAT/GST
The claims for Sales tax/VAT comprises mainly cases relating to levy of VAT on right to use in goods.
I n case of GST, during the current year, the Company has received a favorable order from Hon'ble Supreme Court, dated November 20, 2024, for the ongoing litigation relating to disallowance of CENVAT credit in pre-GST regime wherein the Court has upheld that the towers are movable in nature.”
Further, the Company had received a show cause notice ("SCN”) from Directorate General of GST Intelligence, Ghaziabad ("DGGI”), under Section 74 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 ('CGST Act') on pan India basis (except for 6 states where proceedings were initiated earlier) for the financial years from 2017-18 to 2023-24 proposing disallowance of Input Tax Credit ("ITC”) on passive infrastructure assets ("PIA”) i.e. DG sets, battery banks, air conditioners etc. amounting to '54,546 Million alleging that the PIA are integral part of towers.
The above mentioned SCN has been quashed by the Hon'ble Delhi High Court following the principles arising out of Hon'ble Supreme Court judgment and the Court held that the exclusion of towers under Section 17(5) of CGST Act, from plant and machinery is not applicable and accordingly the ITC stands allowed on Towers (including PIA).
iv) Municipal taxes
The Company based on its assessment of the applicability and tenability of certain municipal levies, which is an industry-wide phenomenon, does not consider the impact of such levies to be material. Further, in the event these levies are confirmed by the respective government authorities, the Company would recover these amounts from its customers in accordance with the terms of Master Service Agreement.
v) Service tax
The service tax department had issued certain orders for the disallowance of CENVAT credit availed on Inputs, Capital Goods and Input Services under pre-GST regime. The Company has filed writ petition before Hon'ble High Court of Delhi which was decided in favour of the Company vide order dated October 31, 2018 wherein it was held that towers are movable in nature and CENVAT credit can be availed on receipt of such goods. Further, the department has filed Special Leave Petition ("SLP”) before Hon'ble Supreme Court against the favourable order of Delhi High Court. The Hon'ble Supreme Court had tagged the SLP with pending matter on similar issue of telecom operators.
On the similar matter, there were contrary judgements by the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay in the case of telecom operators against which, such operators have filed SLP before Hon'ble Supreme Court.
During the current year, Hon'ble Supreme Court upholding the judgment of Delhi High Court has held that the towers are movable in nature and accordingly the CENVAT stands allowed in the hands of the Company. As a result, contingent liability has been reduced with '37,044 Million.
I n a separate proceeding before Directorate General of Central Excise Intelligence, the department had issued an order for payment of excise duty on removal of scrap under pre- GST regime against which the Company has filed appeal before CESTAT. The Company has received favorable order from CESTAT, Chandigarh on issue of reversal of CENVAT credit on removal of scrap for financial years 2015-16 to 2017-18.

The Appellate tribunal decided in favor of Appellants including the Company in February 2020. The said order has been challenged by the DISCOM before the Hon'ble Supreme Court and in October 2020, the Hon'ble Supreme Court passed an order directing parties that there shall be stay of the recovery in meantime. Further, effective April 1, 2020, the DISCOM came out with Multi Year Tariff (MYT) by which industrial tariff has been made applicable to mobile towers. The Company believes that the outcome of the case will be favorable and the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote. Further, in case of an unfavorable decision, which is not likely, the Company has obtained necessary undertakings from the customers for payment/reimbursement of differential cost.
41 Fair values (Contd.)
The following methods / assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
i) The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, short term borrowings, trade payables approximate their fair value mainly due to the short-term maturities of these instruments / being subject to floating rates.
ii) The fair values of financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss like investment in mutual funds and government securities is based on net asset values/quoted market price at the reporting date.
iii) The fair value of security deposits included in other financial assets & other financial liabilities and fixed rate long term borrowings is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates applicable to instruments with similar terms, currency, credit risk and remaining maturities. The fair values of other financial assets and other financial liabilities (other than security deposits) are assessed by the management to be same as their carrying value and is not expected to be significantly different if estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with financial institutions/banks. Further, foreign exchange forward contracts are valued using valuation techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs.
There are no significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement.
42 Fair value hierarchy
All financial instruments for which value is recognized or disclosed are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole;
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted price included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The following table presents the financial instruments measured at fair value, by level within the fair value measurement hierarchy:
Amount received from KMP for ESOP exercised during the year ended March 31, 2025 is '1 Million (March 31, 2024 : Nil1).
* Amount is less than '1 million.
Terms and conditions of transactions with related parties:
The transactions with related parties are made on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions. Outstanding balances at the end of the year are unsecured and settlement occurs in cash and no guarantees have been provided or received for any related party receivables or payables except in case of one of the related party referred in note 52.
44 Segment Reporting
The Company was set-up with the object of, inter alia, establishing, operating and maintaining wireless communication towers. This is the only activity performed and is thus also the main source of risks and returns. The Company's segments as reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) does not result into identification of different ways / sources into which they see the performance of the Company. Accordingly, the Company has a single reportable and geographical segment. Hence, the relevant disclosures as per Ind AS 108, "Operating Segments” are not applicable to the Company.
45 As per transitional provisions specified in Ind AS 101, "First time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards”. The Company has continued to apply the accounting prescribed under the scheme with respect to mergers listed below.
a) Scheme accounting - Bharti Airtel Scheme
During the year ended March 31, 2008, pursuant to the Scheme of Arrangement with Bharti Airtel Limited ('BAL Scheme') under sections 391 to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956, the telecom infrastructure undertaking of Bharti Airtel Limited was transferred to the Company. As per provisions of the Scheme, the Company has created a General reserve equivalent to the amount of fair value of such telecom infrastructure which shall be constituted as free reserve available for all purposes at the discretion of the Company. Pursuant to the Scheme, the depreciation charged by the Company on the excess of the fair values over the original book values of the assets transferred by Bharti Airtel Limited is being off-set against General Reserve. Accordingly, depreciation charges on the excess of fair value over the original book values are charged to General Reserve.
b) Scheme accounting - Indus Scheme
Pursuant to the Scheme of Arrangement ('Indus Scheme') under sections 391 to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956, Vodafone Infrastructure Limited (formerly known as Vodafone Essar Infrastructure Limited), Bharti Infratel Ventures Limited and Idea Cellular Tower Infrastructure Limited (collectively referred to as 'The Transferor Companies') and erstwhile Indus Towers Limited (referred to as 'erstwhile Indus' or 'The Transferee Company'), jointly filed an application for sanctioning a scheme of arrangement ('the Scheme') under Section 391 to 394 of the Companies Act, 1956. The Scheme was sanctioned by the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi vide its order dated April 18, 2013. The Scheme had become operative from June 11, 2013 upon filing of certified copy of the order of the Hon'ble High Court with the Registrar of Companies, Delhi with an appointed date of April 1, 2009.
General Reserve arising out of the Scheme
Pursuant to the terms of the Scheme, with effect from the appointed date, the Transferee Company recorded all assets of the Transferor Companies at fair value, all the liabilities and reserves at their book value and issued its equity shares to the shareholders. The excess of net value of assets, liabilities and reserves taken over and the consideration payable, has been transferred to a General Reserve account arising out of the Scheme. Accordingly, the General Reserve of '73,792 Million was recognised on account of fair value adjustments as on April 1, 2009. Further, the General reserve amounting to '71,050 Million was transferred from Bharti Infratel Ventures Limited and Idea Cellular Towers Infrastructure Limited to erstwhile Indus Towers Limited under the Scheme. The resultant total General Reserve recorded in erstwhile Indus Towers Limited amounted to '144,842 Million as on April 1, 2009.
The General Reserve account of the Transferee Company created pursuant to the Scheme shall be treated as free reserve for all intents and purposes, including, without limitation, as may be decided by the Board of Directors, including for amortisation of any merger related expenses or losses, issuance of bonus shares, off-setting any additional or accelerated depreciation related to the fixed assets transferred to the transferee company pursuant to the Scheme, lease equalization reserve, asset retirement obligations, deferred tax assets or liabilities, as the case may be, any other expenses, impairment, losses or write-offs and any other permitted purposes and shall form part of the net worth of the Transferee company.
Further, pursuant to merger of erstwhile Indus with the Company (refer note 3), such General Reserve amounting to '73,257 Million has been recognised in the Company at the carrying value on the effective date of merger i.e. November 19, 2020. As prescribed under the scheme, such general reserve had been utilised for additional or accelerated depreciation related to the fixed assets transferred pursuant to the Scheme. Had the scheme approved by the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi did not prescribe the accounting treatment mentioned above, these amounts would have been recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Market Risk

Market prices comprise three types of risk: interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include interest bearing investment in mutual funds, Government Securities, fixed deposits and loans and borrowings etc.
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.
The Company's exposure to financial risks is to a variety of financial risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, if any. The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange contracts to manage its exposures and foreign exchange fluctuations, if any.
Interest rate risk
I nterest 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 had invested in Government securities which will fetch a fixed rate of interest, hence, the income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates, which are included in interest bearing loans and borrowings in these financial statements. Further, the short-term borrowings of the Company do not have a significant fair value or cash flow interest rate risk due to their short tenure.

The ageing analysis of trade receivables as of the reporting date is as follows:
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Indian Rupee is the Company's functional currency. As a consequence, the Company's results are presented in Indian Rupee and exposures are managed against Indian Rupee accordingly. The Company has very limited foreign currency exposure mainly due to incurrence of some expenses. The Company may use foreign exchange option contracts or forward contracts towards operational exposures resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates exposure.

Section 17(5) of CGST Act, from plant and machinery is not applicable and accordingly the ITC stands allowed on Towers (including PIA).
Accordingly, the Company has decapitalized '6,598 Million related to GST which was capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment for the period from April 01, 2020 to December 31, 2024 and recognised corresponding ITC asset with the same amount.

56 The Company has used multiple accounting software for maintaining its books of account for the year ended March 31, 2025 which have a feature of recording audit trail (edit log) facility and the same has operated for a part of the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the software.

ii) billing related records the audit trail (edit log) facility has operated from March 21, 2025 to March 31, 2025;

vii) in respect of an accounting software, operated by a third-party software service provider, based on an independent auditor's System and Organization controls report which covers the requirements of audit trail for the period from April 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024 the audit trail (edit log) facility has operated from April 1, 2024 till December 31, 2024. No instance of audit trail feature being tampered with has been reported in such independent auditor's report for the aforesaid period. In the absence of such auditor's report covering the audit trail requirement for the remaining period, we are unable to assess whether the audit trail feature of the said software was enabled and operated from 1 January 2025 till 31 March 2025, for all relevant transactions recorded in the software and whether there was any instance of the audit trail feature been tampered with.
As audit trail feature was not enabled for the year ended March 31, 2024, requirements under Rule 11 (g) of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014 on preservation of audit trail as per the statutory requirements for record retention does not arise.
