39. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - RISK MANAGEMENT Risk management framework

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and currency risk. The Company's primary risk management focus is to minimise potential adverse effects on revenue. The Company's risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company's activities. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company's risk assessment and management policies and processes.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities. The cash flows, funding requirements and liquidity of Company is regularly monitored by Management of the Company. The objective is to optimise the efficiency and effectiveness of Company's capital resources.

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, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers, security deposits and investment securities.

Customer credit risk is managed by company as per its policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk. Credit quality of a customer credit risk is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scoreboard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and all possible steps taken to timely realise them.

The credit risk on Fixed Deposits with Banks, Bank Balances, Investments in Mutual Fund is limited because the counterparties are Banks, Exchanges and Mutual Fund houses who are structured market players.

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: a) Interest Rate Risk b) Currency Risk and

c) Other Price Risk such as equity price risk etc.

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. The Company's exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's outstanding floating rate debt inclued in borrowings.

Currency Risk

The Company has a Foreign Representative Office in Dubai since March 07, 2021 vide its approval from UAE Government and renewed till March 06, 2025. The Company has Fixed Assets, Current Assets, Current liabilities and Expenses of Foreign Representative office situated at Dubai (UAE):

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions with respect to the AED. Foreign Currency Risk is the risk that the Fair Value or Future Cash Flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency rates. Exposures can arise on account of the various assets and liabilities which are denominated in currencies other than Indian Rupee.

A reasonably possible strengthening (weakening) against all currencies at March 31 would have affected the measurement of financial instruments denominated in a foreign currency and affected equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant.

40. DIVIDENDS
