xviii) Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
a) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) where, as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made to 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 risk 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.
Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current
best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
b) Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non occurence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation which is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be recognized because it cannot be measured reliably. Information on contingent liabilities is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote.
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence 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. Contingent asset is not recognized, but its existence is disclosed in the financial statements.
xix) Investments in subsidiaries and associates
The Company has accounted for its investments in subsidiaries and associates at cost less impairment if any. Impairment testing is performed annually as per accounting policy - Impairment on non-financial assets, as per the requirements of Ind AS 36.
Investment in debentures of the subsidiary companies are treated as equity instruments if the same are convertible into fixed number of equity shares. Investment in debentures in subsidiary companies which do not meet the aforesaid criteria are classified as at fair value through profit and loss.
xx) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
A. Financial assets
a) Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value except for trade receivables not containing a significant financing component are initially measured at transaction price.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset are added to the initial fair value, except for financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss.
b) Subsequent measurement
For the purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in four categories:
i) Debt instruments measured at amortised cost
ii) Debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
iii) Debt instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
iv) Investment in Equity instruments (other than by subsidiary or associate company) measured at FVTOCI or FVTPL
v) Trade receivables, security deposits, cash and cash equivalents, bank balances, loans and other financial assets are measured at amortised cost.
Debt instruments
The subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on their classification. The classification depends on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.
i) Debt instruments measured at amortised cost
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is disclosed as interest income in the statement of profit and loss using the effective interest rate method.
ii) Debt instruments measured at FVTOCI
Debt instruments that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets cash flows represent solely payment of principal and interest, are measured at FVTOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses and interest income which are recognised in statement of profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in the OCI is reclassified from equity to statement of profit and loss. Interest income from these financial assets is disclosed as interest income in the statement of profit and loss using the effective interest rate method.
iii) Debt instruments measured at FVTPL
Debt instruments that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVTOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Debt instruments which are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment
that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised and presented net in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
iv) Equity instruments (other than investment in associates and subsidiaries - Refer note "xix" above)
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. The Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to the statement of profit and loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
B. Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognised only when
i) The Company has transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset or
ii) retains the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset,
but assumes a contractual obligation to pay the cash flows to one or more recipients.
Where the entity has transferred an asset, the Company evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognised. Where the entity has not transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognised.
Where the entity has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is derecognised if the Company has not retained control of the financial asset. Where the Company retains control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognised to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
C. Impairment of financial assets
Impairment of financial assets: For trade receivable and contract asset, the Company applies the simplified approach of Ind AS 109, which require measurement of loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses. The Group recognises impairment loss using expected credit loss model which involves use of a provision matrix constructed on the basis of historical credit loss experience as permitted under Ind AS 109 and is adjusted for forward looking information. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses (ECL) are recognised based on the difference between the contractual cash flows and all the expected cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. ECLs are measured at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.
D. Financial liabilities
a) Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities and financial guarantees are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. The Company determines the classification of its financial liability at initial recognition. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial liability except for financial liabilities classified as fair value through profit or loss.
b) Subsequent measurement
For the purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories:
i) Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
ii) Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL (fair value through profit or loss)
Financial guarantee contracts are subsequently measured at the amount of impairment loss allowance or the amount recognised at inception net of cumulative amortisation, whichever is higher.
i) Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate ('EIR') method. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit and loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fee or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
ii) Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Financial liabilities at FVTPL include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are carried in the statement of profit and loss at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of profit and loss.
c) Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
E. Offsetting
A financial asset and a financial liability is offset and presented on net basis in the balance sheet when there is a current legally enforceable right to set-off the recognised amounts and it is intended to either settle on net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
xxi) Fair value measurement
The Company measures financial instruments, such as, investment in debt and equity 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:
• i n the principal market for the asset or liability, or
• in 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 to 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 economic best interest.
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 (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
• Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers, if any, have occurred between levels in 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.
Statement of Cash Flows
Statement of Cash Flows is prepared segregating the cash flows into operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flow from operating activities is reported using indirect method adjusting the profit before tax excluding exceptional items for the effects of:
i. changes during the period in inventories and operating receivables and payables, transactions of a non-cash nature;
ii. non-cash items such as depreciation, provisions, unrealised foreign currency gains and losses; and
iii. all other items for which the cash effects are investing or financing cash flows.
Cash and cash equivalents (including bank balances) shown in the Statement of Cash Flows exclude items which are not available for general use as at the date of Balance Sheet.
3 (B) SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES, JUDGEMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of financial statements requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies. It also requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and the accompanying disclosures including disclosure of contingent liabilities . Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis, with revisions recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
a) Expected cost of completion of contracts with customers
The percentage-of-completion method places considerable importance on accurate estimates of the extent of progress towards completion and may involve estimates on the scope of deliveries and services required for fulfilling the contractually defined obligations. These significant estimates include total contract costs, total contract revenue, contract risks, including technical, political and regulatory risks, and other judgement. The Company reassesses these estimates on periodic basis and makes appropriate revisions accordingly.
Before including any amount of variable consideration in the transaction price, the Company considers whether the amount of variable consideration is constrained. The Company determined that the estimates of variable consideration are not constrained based on its historical experience, business forecast and the current economic conditions. In addition, the uncertainty on the variable consideration will be resolved within a short time frame.
b) Allowance for uncollectible trade receivables / contract assets
Trade receivables do not carry interest and are stated at their transaction values as reduced by appropriate allowances for estimated amounts of expected credit loss. Estimated irrecoverable amounts are based on the ageing of the trade receivable balances and contract asset balances and historical experiences. Individual trade receivables are written off when management deems them not be collectible. The impairment provisions for financial assets disclosed are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates.
The Company uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs for trade receivables and contract assets. The provision rates are based on days past due and other relevant factors. The provision matrix is initially based on the Company's historical observed default rates. The Company calibrates the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. The Company's historical credit loss experience and forecast of economic conditions may not be representative of customer's actual default in the future. The information about the ECLs on the Group's trade receivables and contract assets is disclosed in Note 45.
c) Provision for employee benefits
The cost of post-employment and other long term benefits is determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include determination of discount rates, expected rate of return on assets, 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 at each reporting date. The assumptions used are disclosed in note 53.
d) Contingencies and commitments
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Potential liabilities that have a low probability of crystallising or are very difficult to quantify reliably, are treated as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, if any, but are not provided for in the financial statements. There can be no assurance regarding the final outcome of these legal proceedings.
e) Impairment testing- Impairment of non¬ financial assets
Impairment of investment in an associate
Under Ind AS 36 Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm's length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. Fair value less cost of disposal is based on, amongst others, factors such as, the market value of the assets assessed at the balance sheet date, present conditions of the assets and other factors that market participants would consider for determining the fair value. The assumptions used are disclosed in note 52.
f) Taxes
The Company periodically assesses its liabilities and contingencies related to income taxes for all years open to scrutiny based on latest information available. The Company records its best estimates of the tax liability in the current tax provision. The management believes that they have adequately provided for the probable outcome of these matters.
I n determining the recoverability of deferred income tax assets, the Company primarily considers current and expected profitability of applicable operating business segments and their ability to utilise any recorded tax assets. The Company reviews its deferred income tax assets at every reporting year / period end, taking into consideration the availability of sufficient current and projected taxable profits, reversals of taxable temporary differences and tax planning strategies.
g) Fair value measurement
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. In applying the valuation techniques, management makes maximum use of market inputs and uses estimates and assumptions that are, as far as possible, consistent with observable data that market participants would use in pricing the instrument. Where applicable data is not observable, management uses its best estimate about the assumptions that market participants would make. These estimates may vary from the actual prices that would be achieved in an arm's length transaction at the reporting date. For details of the key assumptions used and the impact of changes to these assumptions (Refer note 41).
h) Share based payments
Estimating fair value for share-based payment requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model. The estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are disclosed in note 50.
3 (C) RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

(ii) Rights, preference and restriction on shares
The Company has only one class of equity having par value of ' 10 per share. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote per share held. The Company declares and pays dividend in Indian Rupees. The dividend, proposed by the Board of Directors, except interim dividend, is subject to the approval of the shareholders in the ensuing Annual General Meeting.
In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of the equity shares are entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts, in proportion to their shareholding.
Money received against share warrants Consequent to approval from members on November 07, 2025, the Company has allotted 19,047,619 (One Crore Ninety Lakh Forty Seven Thousand Six Hundred and Nineteen) warrants, convertible into equivalent number of equity shares of ' 10 each of the Company at price of ' 525 per warrant (including premium of ' 515/- per warrant) of the Company to a promoter and other non-promoters entities / persons, through preferential allotment, in terms of Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, Companies Act, 2013 and other applicable provisions, if any.
The Company has received ' 250.00 crores, being 25% of the issue price of the warrants, as subscription and allotment money. Pending utilisation of the money for the objects of the issue, the entire amount has been temporarily invested in liquid/overnight mutual funds and remains unutilised as on the reporting date.
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount 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 following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
Fair value of the cash and cash equivalent, short term deposits, trade and other receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities, short term loans from banks and other financial instruments (other than investment in subsidiary and associate companies measured at cost less provision for impairment) approximate their carrying amounts largely due to short term maturities of these instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowing with fixed rate of interest are considered to be close to the fair value as the coupon interest rates are materially approximate to the market interest rate at the balance sheet date.
Fair value hierarchy
The following table presents fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of 31 March 2026 and 31 March 2025:
Valuation techniques used to determine fair value
a) Investments included in Level 1 of fair value hierarchy are based on prices quoted in stock exchange and/ or NAV declared by the funds.
b) Investments included in Level 2 of fair value hierarchy have been valued based on inputs from banks and other recognised institutions such as FIMMDA/ FEDAI.
c) Investments included in Level 3 of fair value hierarchy have been valued using acceptable valuation techniques such as Net Asset Value and/ or Discounted Cash Flow Method.
Note : All financial instruments for which fair value is recognised or disclosed are categorised within the Fair Value Hierarchy described as above, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole.
The carrying amounts of loans, trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, other financial assets, non-current and current borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities that are measured at amortised cost are considered to be approximately equal to the fair value due to short-term maturities of these financial assets/ liabilities.
42 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company's financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company's financial risk management policy is set by the Managing Board. The Company is exposed to market risk - foreign currency and interest rate, credit risk and liquidity risk.
A Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The sensitivity analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on the carrying value of post-employment benefit obligations provisions and on the non-financial assets and liabilities. The sensitivity of the relevant profit and loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks.
a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize Company's position with regard to interest income and interest expenses and manage the interest rate risk, treasury performs a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instrument in its total portfolio.
Other variable rate borrowings
The Company does not have any borrowings at variable interest rate and hence disclosure pertaining to interest rate sensitivity is not applicable.
b) Foreign currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows fluctuate because of changes in market prices of various currencies against the functional currency.
B Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. Financial instruments that are subject to credit risk and concentration thereof principally consist of trade receivables, contract assets, investment in debentures issued by subsidiary companies, security deposits, deposit with banks, loans, others receivables, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets.
Credit risk management
The Company's customer profile / ultimate customer profile include central government agencies, state owned companies and large municipal corporations. Accordingly, the Company's customer credit risk is low. The Company's average project execution cycle is around 24 to 36 months. General payment terms include mobilisation advance, monthly progress payments with a credit period ranging from 45 to 90 days and certain retention money to be released at the end of the project. In many cases, retentions are substituted with bank/ corporate guarantees. The Company has a detailed review mechanism of overdue customer receivables at various levels within the organisation to ensure proper attention and focus for realisation.
Considering the nature of business, each contract and its customer is evaluated for the purpose of assessment of loss allowances. The reasons for loss allowances could be recovery of claims, disputes with customer, customers ability to pay, delays in approval by government authorities, and expected time to recover the amount. Management makes an assessment considering facts of each contract, past trends, terms of the contract and accordingly considers the need for loss allowances, if any.
Impairment of Financial Assets :
Cash and Cash equivalent and deposit with banks: Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Group's management in accordance with the Group's policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Group's management on an annual basis and may be updated throughout the year. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through a counterparty's potential failure to make payments. The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at 31 March 2026 and 2025 is the carrying amounts. While cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks are subject to impairment requirements of Ind AS 109, the identified impairment on these assets is ' Nil.
For Trade Receivables and Contract Assets: An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due and other relevant factors. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. In some cases, trade receivables are written-off if past due for more than one year and are not subject to enforcement activity. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value. The Expected credit loss rate for various time buckets are disclosed in Note 44. The Company does not hold collateral as security.
The Company follows a policy for expected credit risk loss provisioning for trade receivables and contract assets based on provision matrix based on days past due as per the requirements of Ind AS 109. ECL provision range from 0%-1.27% for applicable contract assets and trade receivables outstanding for less than 1 year; 5%-15% for applicable contract assets and trade receivables outstanding for more than 1 year but less than 2 years; 10%- 25% for applicable contract assets and trade receivables outstanding for more than 2 years but less than 3 years; and 25%- 100% for applicable contract assets and trade receivables outstanding for more than 3 years.
Considering the nature of business, each contract and its customer is evaluated for the purpose of assessment of loss allowances. The reasons for loss allowances could be recovery of claims, disputes with customer, customers ability to pay, delays in approval by government authorities, and expected time to recover the amount. Management makes an assessment considering facts of each contract, past trends, terms of the contract and accordingly considers the need for loss allowances, if any.
b) Exposure to liquidity risk
The table below provides details regarding the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date based on the contractual undiscounted payments.
The Company secured contracts by submitting bids in response to tenders in terms of which it is required to form Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) Companies (Subsidiary Companies) to execute the awarded projects. As at 31 March 2026 the Company has 4 SPVs (As at 31 March 2025 the Company had 4 SPVs) who have received contracts from government promoted agencies and revenue related to SPV's for work executed by the Company has been grouped in Revenue from government promoted agencies.
At 31 March 2026, the Company had 4 customers (31 March 2025: 3) that had outstanding trade receivables and contract assets accounting for approximately 89.17% (31 March 2025: 87.87%) of all the outstanding trade receivables and contract assets.

63 During the year, the Contractor ("the Company") submitted an interim claim (Interim Claim No. 1) for compensation on account of additional costs incurred for SNRP project due to the non-availability of pond ash, which was originally envisaged to be supplied free of cost at the project site in accordance with the applicable regulations prevailing at the time of bid submission.
Subsequent to the award of the contract, there were regulatory changes and supply constraints which resulted in non-availability of pond ash as originally envisaged. Consequently the Contractor was required to use borrow earth in lieu of pond ash and also procure and transport pond ash at its own cost, resulting in significant increase in EPC cost of the contractor.
Although the Independent Engineer of the Concessionaire ("Welspun Sattanathapuram Nagapattinam Road Private Limited") had recommended the claim, the Authority (National Highways Authority of India (NHAI)) rejected the same, and the matter has been referred to dispute resolution in terms of the Concession Agreement.
Accordingly, the Concessionaire has requested the Contractor to compile and furnish the details of the procurement of borrow earth in lieu of pond ash, details of pond ash procured, cost towards procurement and transportation of pond ash, considering the cut-off date of 31.12.2025.
Based on the documentation submitted, the Contractor has raised a revised claim amounting to ' 144.85 crore (' 70.87 crore towards borrow earth and ' 73.98 crore towards procurement and transportation of pond ash), along with applicable taxes and cess, which is proposed to be recoverable from the Concessionaire upon crystallisation.

As a consequence of the elevated river levels and adverse hydraulic conditions, the well foundations of Pier No. 13 (P-13) and Pier No. 14 (P-14), which had been partially sunk, experienced tilting and displacement from their intended positions.
Subsequent inspections carried out after the monsoon season indicated that the P-13 and P-14 wells were not visible at their expected elevations and location, suggesting possible collapse or significant displacement. Accordingly, the Concessionaire (Welspun Aunta-Simaria Project Private Limited) commissioned detailed geophysical investigations using Side Scan Sonar (SSS), Sub-Bottom Profiler (SBP) and Multibeam Echo Sounder (MBES) technologies. Based on the findings of these investigations, the wells were determined to have toppled at an inclination of approximately 63 degrees and become embedded approximately 6 metres below the riverbed.
The Concessionaire lodged insurance claims under the Contractor's All Risk (CAR) Policy amounting to ' 80.25 crore in respect of P-13 and ' 31.46 crore in respect of P-14. The insurer rejected the claims vide its communication dated August 12, 2025.

The matter was admitted by the NCDRC on February 23, 2026 and the next hearing has been scheduled for June 30, 2026 for filing of the written version by the insurer. The Concessionaire is in process of filing the complaint for P-14 with NCDRC.
The Contractor ("the Company") submitted an claim to the Concessionaire for the additional cost incurred due to the losses of P-13 and P-14, in the event of crystallisation of the claim, which is proposed to be recoverable from the Concessionaire upon crystallisation.
