2A.6 Provisions
A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows (representing the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date) at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost. Expected future operating losses are not provided for.
2A.7 Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Contingent liabilities are disclosed 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 the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made. A contingent asset is not recognized in financial statements, however, the same is disclosed where an inflow of economic benefit is probable.
2A.8 Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when control of the products being sold is transferred to the customer and when there are no longer any unfulfilled obligations.
The performance obligations in contracts by the Company are fulfilled at the time of dispatch, delivery or upon formal customer acceptance depending on customer terms.
Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied and control of the goods are transferred to the customer upon dispatch or delivery, in accordance with the terms of customer contracts.
Revenue is recognized at an amount that the Company expects to receive from customers that is net of discounts, rebates and taxes as applicable.
The customers have the contractual right to return goods only when authorized by the Company. An estimate is made of goods that will be returned and a liability is recognized for this amount using a best estimate based on accumulated experience.
Rental Income
Income from rentals is recognized in accordance with terms of the contracts with customer based on the period for which the facilities have been used.
Interest Income
Interest income is recognized using the effective interest rate (EIR) method.
Dividend Income
Dividend income on investments is recognized when the right to receive dividend is established.
2A.9 Employee Benefits
(i) Defined benefit plans
For defined benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Remeasurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Past service cost, both vested and unvested, is recognized as an expense at the earlier of (a) when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs; and (b) when the entity recognizes related restructuring costs or termination benefits.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
The retirement benefit obligations recognized in the balance sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit obligations reduced by the fair value of scheme assets. Any asset resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the scheme.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as expense when employees have rendered services entitling them to such benefits.
(iii) Short-term employee benefits
All employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. Benefits such as salaries, wages etc. and the expected cost of bonus are recognized in the period in which the employee renders the related service. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(iv) Compensated absences
Compensated absences which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are
recognized as undiscounted liability at the balance sheet date. Compensated absences which are not expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related services are recognized as an actuarially determined liability at the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date.
2A.10 Income taxes
Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the year. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in statement of profit and loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable/receivable on the taxable income/loss for the year using applicable tax rates for the relevant period, and any adjustment to taxes in respect of previous years. Interest expenses and penalties, if any, related to income tax are included in finance cost and other expenses respectively. Interest income, if any, related to income tax is included in other income.
Advance taxes and provisions for current income taxes are presented in the balance sheet after off¬ setting advance tax paid and income tax provision where the relevant tax paying unit intends to settle the asset and liability on a net basis.
Deferred tax
Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient
taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be received or settled.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
2A.11 Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities in any of the years presented.
2A.12 Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are retranslated at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date and exchange gains and losses arising on settlement and restatement are recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currencies are not retranslated.
2A.13 Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability.
The Company derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. The Company derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Companys' obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.
Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and selling financial assets.
The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity investments not held for trading in other comprehensive income.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless they are measured at amortized cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are immediately recognized in statement of profit and loss.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
Hedge accounting
The Company designates certain foreign exchange forward contracts as hedge instruments in respect of foreign exchange risks. These hedges are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
The Company uses hedging instruments that are governed by the policies of the Company which are approved by the Board of Directors. The policies provide written principles on the use of such financial derivatives consistent with the risk management strategy of the Company.
The hedge instruments are designated and documented as hedges at the inception of the contract. The Company determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item based on the currency, amount and timing of their respective cash flows. The effectiveness of hedge instruments to reduce the risk associated with the exposure being hedged is assessed and measured at inception and on an ongoing basis. If the hedged future cash flows are no longer expected to occur, then the amounts that have been accumulated in other equity are immediately reclassified in net foreign exchange gains/losses in the statement of profit and loss.
The effective portion of change in the fair value of the designated hedging instrument is recognized in the other comprehensive income.
Hedging instrument is recognized as a financial asset in the balance sheet if its fair value as at reporting date is positive as compared to carrying value and as a financial liability if its fair value as at reporting date is negative as compared to carrying value.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity till that time remains and is recognized in statement of profit and loss when the forecasted transaction ultimately affects the profit or loss.
2(b) significant accounting policies 2B.1 Investment property
Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Upon initial recognition, an investment property is measured at cost. Subsequently, investment property is measured
at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Gains or losses arising on retirement or disposal of investment property are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The fair value of investment property is disclosed in the notes. Fair values are determined by an accredited independent registered valuer who hold a recognized and relevant professional qualification and has recent experience in the location and category of the investment property being valued.
2B.2 Intangible Assets
Intangible assets purchased are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as finite. Finite- life intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of their estimated useful lives.
2B.3 Cash flow Statement
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and non-operating nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.
2B.4 Leases
The Companys' lease asset classes primarily consist of leases for Land. The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of a contract. 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. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Company assesses whether: (i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset (ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease and (iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. At the date of commencement of the lease, a right-of- use asset ("ROU") and a corresponding lease liability is recognized for all lease arrangements in which the
Company is a lessee, except for leases with a term of twelve months or less (short-term leases) and leases of low value assets. For these short-term and leases of low value assets, the Company recognizes the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight¬ line basis over the term of the lease. The right-of- use assets are initially recognized at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Right-of- use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and useful life of the underlying asset. ROU asset has been separately presented in the Balance Sheet.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates.
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. A lease liability is
remeasured upon the occurrence of certain events such as a change in the lease term or a change in an index or rate used to determine lease payments. The remeasurement normally also adjusts the leased assets. There exists no lease liability in respect of long¬ term lease of land as the lease premium for the entire lease period was paid upfront at lease initiation/ renewal.
2B.5 Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The board of directors of IVP has appointed the Chief Executive Officer ('CEO') to assess the financial performance and position of the Company, and make strategic decisions. The CEO has been identified as being the Chief Operating Decision Maker for corporate planning.
2B.6 Recent accounting developments
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. During the year, MCA has not notified any new amendment to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) which are effective from 1.4.2026.
Description of the nature and purpose of Other Equity
General Reserve: The General Reserve comprises of transfer of profits from retained earnings for appropriation purposes. The reserve can be distributed/utilised by the Company in accordance with the Companies Act, 2013.
Retained Earnings: Retained Earnings are the profits that the Company has earned till date and is net of amount transferred to other reserves such as general reserves etc., amount distributed as dividends and adjustments on account of transition to Ind AS.
Note: The Board of Directors in their meeting held on May 21, 2026 have recommended a dividend of g 1.50 per Equity Share (March 31, 2025: g 1 per Equity Share) to be approved by the shareholders in the ensuing general meeting. On approval, this will result in an outflow of g 155 Lakhs (March 31, 2025: g 103 lakhs).
(i) Cash credit facilities from multiple banks are repayable on demand and carry interest rates during the year ranging from 8.25% p.a. to 10.00% p.a. (FY 24-25: 7.70% p.a. to 10.59% p.a).
(ii) Working capital demand loans taken from multiple banks carry interest rates during the year ranging from 6.86% p.a. to 9.00% p.a. (FY 24-25: 7.55% p.a. to 9.04% p.a). These loans are repayable on different dates within three months from the balance sheet date.
(iii) Buyer's credit is a loan facility under Supplier Financing Arrangement extended by bank against import and carries interest rates linked to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) during the year ranging from 4.26% p.a. to 4.94% p.a. (FY 24-25: 4.80% p.a. to 5.88% p.a).
(iv) Inter-corporate deposits carry interest @ 7.25% p.a. (FY 24-25: 7.25%). Interest rate has been revised to 6.75% p.a. from 7.25% p.a. with effect from 01st April 2026.
Supplier Finance Arrangement disclosure requirement as per IND AS 7
Supplier financing is arranged through Buyer's Credit, a loan facility extended by the bank against import-backed issuance of a Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC). Under this arrangement, the bank settles payments to suppliers on the due date and provides us an extended credit period of 30-60 days and accordingly outstanding amounts classified under short-term borrowings. This helps optimize working capital and manage cash flows efficiently, with interest rates typically linked to SOFR. The effective interest rate under this arrangement is generally lower than standard bank borrowing rates.
1) Type and Effect of Non-Cash Changes
During the period, the following non-cash changes occurred in the carrying amounts of borrowings related to Supplier Financials Arrangement.
a) Effect of Exchange Differences:
The company has recognised non-cash exchange differences in the carrying amount of borrowings arising from supplier financing arrangements.
As of the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amount of borrowings related to supplier financing arrangements denominated in foreign currencies has increased by g 69 lakhs due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
The Government of India has consolidated 29 existing labour legislations into a unified framework comprising four labour codes viz the Code on Wages, 2019, the Code on Social Security, 2020, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 (collectively referred to as the "Codes"). The Codes have been made effective from November 21, 2025. The Ministry of Labour & Employment notified Central Rules on 8 May 2026 however State rules are yet to be notified. The new Labour Codes have resulted in one time increase in provision for employee benefits of the company. The estimated incremental impact of these changes as assessed by the Company amounts to g 46 lakhs pertains to past services rendered upto 31st March 2026 and this has been recognised and presented as Exceptional Items in the Statement of profit and loss of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2026 consistent with the guidance provided by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Once Central/State Rules are notified by the Government on all aspects of the Codes, the Company will evaluate impact, if any, on the measurement of employee benefits and would provide appropriate accounting treatment.
The Company has disclosed financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, loans, other financial assets, borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities at carrying value because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of the fair values due to their short term nature.
B. Fair Value measurement hierarchy
The fair value of financial instruments as referred to in note (a) have been classified into three categories depending on the inputs used in the valuation technique.
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
The categories used are as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in an active market;
Level 2: Directly or indirectly observable market inputs, other than Level 1 inputs; and Level 3: Inputs which are not based on observable market data.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as at Balance Sheet date
i. The Fair values of investments in quoted investment in equity shares is based on the current bid price of respective investment as at the Balance Sheet date.
ii. The Company entered into forward contracts to hedge foreign currency risks of underlying exposures during FY 2025-2026 as well as in FY 2024-2025.
iii. Financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, loans, other financial assets, borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are stated at carrying value because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of the fair values due to their short term nature.
41. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY A. Capital management
For the purpose of the Companys' capital management, Capital includes Issued Equity Capital and all Other Reserves attributable to the Equity shareholders of the Company. The Primary objective of the Companys' Capital Management is to maximise the shareholders' value. The Companys' capital management objectives are to maintain equity including all reserves to protect economic viability and to finance any growth opportunities that may be available in future so as to maximise shareholder's value. The Company is monitoring Capital using the equity ratio as its base, which is total equity divided by total assets. Also, the Company monitors capital using debt-equity ratio, which is total debt divided by total equity.
B. Financial risk management and policies
The Companys' financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The risk management policy is approved by the Companys' Board. The Companys' principal financial liabilities comprise of loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The Companys' principal financial assets include trade and other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents that derive directly from its operations and investments. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk etc. The objective of the Companys' financing policy are to secure solvency, limit financial risks and optimise
the cost of capital. The Companys' capital structure is managed using equity and debt ratios as part of the Companys' financial planning.
a. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, investments and derivative financial instruments. The Company has designed risk management framework to control various risks
effectively to achieve the business objectives. This includes identification of risk, its assessment, control and monitoring at timely intervals.
The above mentioned risks may affect the Companys' income and expenses, or the value of its financial instruments. The Companys' exposure to and management of these risks are explained below:
i. Foreign currency risk
The Company is subject to the risk that changes in foreign currency values impact the Companys' imports and other payables. During the reporting period the company has availed and utilised facility of Buyer's Credit from bank which also exposed the company to foreign currency risk as buyer's credit facility is considered as foreign currency loan. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to US Dollar. The exposures are hedged as per the policy of the Company.
ii. Forward foreign exchange contracts
It is the policy of the Company to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to cover foreign currency payments in USD. The Company enters into contracts with terms upto 120 days. The Companys' philosophy does not permit any speculative calls on the currency. It is driven by conservatism which guides that management follows conventional wisdom by use of Forward contracts in respect of Trade transactions.
Regulatory requirements: The Company will alter its hedge strategy in relation to the prevailing regulatory framework and guidelines that may be issued by RBI, FEDAI or ISDA or other regulatory bodies from time to time.
Forward cover is obtained from bank for each of the aggregated exposures and the Trade deal is booked. The forward cover deals are all backed by actual trade underlines and settlement of these contracts on maturity are by actual delivery of the hedged currency for settling the underline hedged trade transaction.
The Company entered into forward cover contracts during FY 2025-2026 as well as in FY 2024-2025.
b. Credit risk
Credit risk refers to risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. Credit risk arises primarily from financial assets such as trade receivables, investment in mutual funds, derivative financial instruments, other balances with banks, loans and other receivables. The outstanding trade receivables are regularly monitored and appropriate action is taken for collection of overdue receivables. Credit risk arising from investment in mutual funds, derivative financial instruments and other balances with banks is limited and there is no collateral held against these because the counterparties are banks and recognised financial institutions with high credit ratings. The Companys' exposure is continuously monitored.
The Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historically observed default rates are updated and changes in forward-looking estimates are analysed. The Company estimates the following matrix at the reporting date.
Trade Receivable of g 21,018 lakhs as at March 31, 2026 forms a significant part of the financial assets carried at amortised cost which is valued considering provision for allowance using expected credit loss method. In addition to the historical pattern of credit loss, management has considered forward looking information. The Company closely monitors its customers on regular basis. Basis this assessment, the allowance for doubtful trade receivables of g 2,388 lakhs as at March 31, 2026 is considered adequate.
c. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Liquidity risk may result from an inability to sell a financial asset quickly at close to its fair value The Company maintains a cautious liquidity strategy, with a positive cash balance throughout the year. Management monitors the Companys' liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows. Cash flow from operating activities provides the funds to service and finance the financial liabilities on a day-to-day basis.
Additional funding required, if any, will be provided by the banks based on undrawn sanctioned working capital facilities.
42. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The Company has classified various employee benefits as under:
A. Defined contribution plans
State Defined Contribution Plans
- Employers' Contribution to Employees' State Insurance
- Employers' Contribution to Employees' Pension Scheme 1995
The Companys' contributions paid/payable to Employees State Insurance Scheme, Employees Pension Schemes, 1995 and other funds, are determined under the relevant approved schemes and/or statutes and are recognised as expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the year in which the employee renders the related service. There are no further obligations other than the contributions payable to the approved trusts/ appropriate authorities.
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligations as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumption may be correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligations has been calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same as that applied in calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognised in the balance sheet.
Each year an Asset - Liability matching study is performed in which the consequences of the strategic investment policies are analysed in terms of risk and return profiles. Investment and contribution policies are integrated within this study.
The Company is expected to contribute g 81 lakhs to Gratuity fund for the year ended March 31, 2026. (March 31,2025: g 14 lakhs).
(ii) Provident fund
In accordance with Indian law, all eligible employees of the Company in India are entitled to receive
benefits under the provident fund plan in which both the employee and employer (at a determined rate) contribute monthly to a Trust set up by the Company to manage the investments and distribute the amounts entitled to employees. This plan is a defined benefit plan as the Company is obligated to provide its members a rate of return which should, at the minimum, meet the interest rate declared by Government administered provident fund. A part of the Companys' contribution is transferred to Government administered pension fund. The contributions made by the Company and the shortfall of interest, if any, are recognised as an expense in statement of profit and loss under employee benefit expenses. In accordance with an actuarial valuation of provident fund liabilities on the basis of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the assumptions as mentioned below, there is no deficiency in the interest cost as the present value of the expected future earnings of the fund is greater than the expected amount to be credited to the individual members based on the expected guaranteed rate of interest of Government administered provident fund. However, during the year, Trust estimated deficit in Income and Expenditure account amounting to g 9 lakhs excluding mark-to- market losses on investment in mutual funds which has been recognised as an expenses in statement of Profit and Loss under employee benefit expenses.
