1.17. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities
The Company recognizes provisions when a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event exists and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle such obligation and the amount of such obligation can be reliably estimated.
If the effect of 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 is recognized as a finance cost.
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
1.18. Employee Benefits
Short Term Employee Benefits
Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus, short term compensated absences, ex-gratia, etc. The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognized as an expense as the related service is rendered by employees.
Other long-term employee benefit obligations
Entitlements to annual leave and sick leave are recognized when they accrue to employees. Sick leave can only be availed while annual leave can either be availed or encashed subject to a restriction on the maximum number of accumulation of leave. The Company determines the liability for such accumulated leaves using the Projected Accrued Benefit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each Balance Sheet date. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Defined Privilege Leave Benefit plan
Entitlements to annual leave, which are expected to be availed and encashed within 12 months from the end of the year are treated as short term employee benefits. The obligation towards the same is measured at the expected cost of leave encashment as the additional amount expected to be paid as a result of the unused entitlement as at the year end. Leave encashment, which are expected to be availed or encashed beyond 12 months from the end of the year are treated as other long-term employee benefits.
The Company’s liability is actuarially determined (using the Projected Unit Credit method) at the end of each year. Actuarial losses/gains are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which they arise.
Post-Employment Benefits
Defined Contribution plans
Defined contribution plans are employee state insurance scheme and Government administered pension fund scheme for all applicable employees and superannuation scheme for eligible employees.
Provident Fund scheme
Defined Contribution Plans such as Provident Fund etc., are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss as incurred. The contributions are made to a government administered Provident Fund towards which the Company has no further obligations beyond its monthly contributions.
Recognition and measurement of defined contribution plans
The Company recognizes contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the employees render services to the Company during the reporting period. If the contributions payable for services received from employees before the reporting date exceed the contributions already paid, the deficit payable is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds
the contribution due for services received before the reporting date, the excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
Defined Benefit plans
Defined Benefit Gratuity plan
The Company operates a defined benefit gratuity plan for employees. The company contributes to a separate entity (a fund) towards meeting the gratuity obligation.
Planned assets are invested in debt instruments.
Recognition and measurement of Defined Benefit plans
The cost of providing defined benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method with actuarial valuations being carried out at each reporting date. The defined benefit obligations recognized in the Balance Sheet represent the present value of the defined benefit obligations as reduced by the fair value of plan assets, if applicable. Any defined benefit asset (negative defined benefit obligations resulting from this calculation) is recognized representing the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.
All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability / (asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability / (asset) comprising actuarial gains and losses and the return on the plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset), are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income. Such remeasurements are not reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the subsequent periods.
The Company presents the above liability/(asset) as current and non-current in the Balance Sheet as per actuarial valuation by the independent actuary; however, the entire liability towards gratuity is considered as current as the Company will contribute this amount to the fund within the next twelve months.
1.19. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of Cash Flow Statement comprise cash and cheques in hand, bank balances, demand deposits with banks where the original maturity is three months or less and other short term highly liquid investments net of bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand as these form an integral part of the Company’s cash management.
1.20. Events after reporting date
Where events occurring after the balance sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial statements. Otherwise, events after the balance sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
1.21. Key Accounting Estimates And Judgments
The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires the management to make judgments, 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.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
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:
Income taxes
The Company’s tax jurisdiction is India. Significant judgments are involved in estimating budgeted profits for the purpose of paying advance tax, determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions (Refer Note 28).
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment represent a significant proportion of the asset base of the Company. 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. The useful lives and residual values of Company’s assets are determined by the management at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed periodically, including at each financial year end. 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 technical or commercial obsolescence arising from changes or improvements in production or from a change in market demand of the product or service output of the asset.
Defined Benefit Obligation
The costs of providing gratuity and other post-employment benefits are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 19 ‘Employee benefits’ over the period during which benefit is derived from the employees’ services. The costs are assessed on the basis of assumptions selected by the management. These assumptions include salary escalation rate, discount rates, expected rate of return on assets and mortality rates. The same is disclosed in Note 34 ‘Employee benefits’.
Fair value measurement of Financial Instruments
When the fair values of financials assets and financial liabilities recorded in the Balance Sheet cannot be measured based on quoted prices in active markets, their fair value is measured using valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flow model, which involve various judgments and assumptions.
Estimation of fair value
The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market for similar properties. Since investment properties leased out by the Company are cancellable and non-cancellable leases, the market rate for sale/purchase of such premises are representative of fair values. Company’s investment properties are at a location where active market is available for similar kind of properties. Hence fair value is ascertained on the basis of market rates prevailing for similar properties in those location determined by an independent registered valuer, as defined under Rule 2 of The Companies (Registered Valuers and Valuation) Rules 2017, and consequently classified as a level 2 valuation.
c) Terms/rights attached to equity shares
The Company has only one class of equity shares having a par value of Rs. 2/- per share. Each Equity Shareholder is entitled to one vote per share. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the equity shareholders will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of equity shares held by the shareholders. The final dividend proposed by the Board of Directors is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting, except in case of interim dividend.
Notes:
(1) Cash credit facility,Bank Guarantee, Export Packing Credit facility from the State Bank of India are secured by the Pledge/Hypothecation of stock, book debts, Plant & Machineries and collateral secured by equitable mortgage of Land and Building situated at Unit I situated at-C/1-39/13-16, GIDC, Naroda, Unit- II situated at Plot no 11 & 12, Hitendranagar Sahakari Audyogik Vasahat Ltd., Nr Gujarat Agro, N H Road, Naroda, & Unit- IV situated at Phase - III, Plot no 17/1, Naroda, GIDC, Ahmedabad of Mazda Limited, Mutual Fund as margin money for bank guarantee and also personally guaranteed by Mrs. Shanaya Mody Khatua, who is the whole time director of the company.
(2) Bank Guarantee & Overdraft facility from ICICI Bank are secured by providing Mutual funds as Collateral security.
The carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost in the financial statements are a reasonable approximation of their fair values since the Company does not anticipate that the carrying amounts would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.
Types of inputs for determining fair value are as under:
Level 1: This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of investment in quoted equity shares, and mutual fund investments.The mutual funds are valued using the closing NAV.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise 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.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities included in level 3.
B. Measurement of fair values
i) Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs
The following tables show the valuation techniques used in measuring Level 2 and Level 3.
ii) Transfers between Levels 1 and 2
There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the reporting periods.
iii) Transfer out of Level 3
There were no movement in level 3 in either directions during the financial year ending on 31 March, 2026 and 31 March, 2025.
C. Financial risk management
The Company’s financial liabilities comprise mainly of borrowings, trade payables and other payables. The Company’s financial assets comprise mainly of investments, cash and cash equivalents, other balances with banks, loans, trade receivables and other receivables.
The Company is exposed to Market risk, Credit risk and Liquidity risk. The Board of Directors (‘Board’) oversee the management of these financial risks. The Risk Management Policy of the Company formulated by the Board, states the Company’s approach to address uncertainties in its endeavor to achieve its stated and implicit objectives. It prescribes the roles and responsibilities of the Company’s management, the structure for managing risks and the framework for risk management. The framework seeks to identify, assess and mitigate financial risks in order to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.
The following disclosures summarize the Company’s exposure to financial risks and information regarding use of derivatives employed to manage exposures to such risks. Quantitative sensitivity analysis have been provided to reflect the impact of reasonably possible changes in market rates on the financial results, cash flows and financial position of the Company.
1) 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 risks: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk includes borrowings, investments, trade payables, trade receivables, loans and derivative financial instruments.
a) Interest Rate Risk
Interest 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. Since the Company has insignificant interest bearing borrowings, the exposure to risk of changes in market interest rates is minimal. The Company has not used any interest rate derivatives.
b) Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.The Company operates, in addition to domestic markets, significantly in international markets through its sales and services in overseas and purchases from overseas suppliers and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the USD & GBP. The Company does not enter into any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The sources of foreign exchange risk are outstanding amounts payable for imported raw materials, capital goods and other supplies denominated in foreign currency.The Company is also exposed to foreign exchange risk on its exports. Most of these transactions are denominated in US dollars.
(ii) Foreign Currency Risk Sensitivity
The Company is mainly exposed to changes in USD & GBP. The below table demonstrates the sensitivity to a 5% increase or decrease in the USD and GBP against INR, with all other variables held constant. The sensitivity analysis is prepared on the net unhedged exposure of the Company as at the reporting date. 5% represents management’s assessment of reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rate.
c) Other Price Risk
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market traded price. Other price risk arises from financial assets such as investments in equity instruments. The Company is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its investments in mutual funds recognised at FVTPL. As at 31st March, 2026, the carrying value of the investments in mutual funds amounts to Rs 6279.30 Lacs ( Rs.8700.57 Lacs as at 31st March, 2025 ). The details of such investments in mutual funds are given in Note 5. The price risk arises due to uncertainties about the future market values of these investments.
The Company is also exposed to price risk arising from investments in equity instruments recognised at FVTOCI. As at 31st March, 2026, the carrying value of such instruments recognised at FVTOCI amounts to Rs. 241.80 Lacs (Rs 219.15 Lacs as at 31st March, 2025). The details of such equity instruments are given in Note 5.
The Company has laid policies and guidelines which it adheres to in order to minimise price risk arising from investments in mutual funds.
The Company is mainly exposed to change in market rates of its investments in mutual funds recognised at FVTPL. A sensitivity analysis demonstrating the impact of change in market prices of these instruments from the prices existing as at the reporting date is given below:
If the prices had been higher/lower by 10% from the market prices existing as at 31st March, 2026, gain in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended 31st March, 2026 would increase/ decrease by Rs.627.93 Lacs (2024-25- Rs. 870.05 Lacs) with a corresponding increase/decrease in Total Equity of the Company as at 31st March, 2026. 10% represents management’s assessment of reasonably possible change in prices.
2) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company.To manage this, the Company periodically assesses financial reliability of customers and other counter parties, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of financial assets. Individual risk limits are set and periodically reviewed on the basis of such information. The Company considers Credit risk arises primarily from financial assets such as trade receivables, investment in mutual funds, derivative financial instruments, other balances with banks, loans.
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 assigned by the credit rating agencies.
Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectations of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Company. Where loan or receivables have been written off, the Company continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivable due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognized as income in the statement of profit and loss.
The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables and loan from individual customers based on historical trend, industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends. Based on the historical data, loss on collection of receivable is not material hence no provision considered.
3) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will encounter in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The approach of the company to manage liquidity is to ensure , as far as possible, that Company will have sufficient liquidity to meet their respective liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk damage to their reputation. The company assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be low.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the company’s financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments.
NOTE 30 : CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
For the purpose of the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued capital and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maintain an optimal capital structure so as to maximize shareholder value.
As at 31st March, 2026, the Company has only one class of equity shares and has no debt. Consequent to such capital structure, there are no externally imposed capital requirements. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company allocates its capital for distribution as dividend or re-investment into business based on its long term financial plans.
The Company’s policy is to maintain a stable and strong capital structure with a focus on total equity so as to maintain investor, creditors and market confidence and to sustain future development and growth of its business. The Company will take appropriate steps in order to maintain, or if necessary adjust, its capital structure.
Proposed Dividend:-
The Board of Directors at its meeting held on 26th May, 2026 have recommended a payment of final dividend of Rs. 4.00 (Four Rupees only) per equity share of face value of Rs. 2 each for the financial year ended 31st March, 2026. The same amounts to Rs. 801 Lacs.
The above is subject to approval at the ensuing Annual General Meeting of the Company and hence is not recognised as a liability.
