3.12 Provisions:
Provisions
A provision is recognized 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. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
Contingent liabilities and contingent assets:
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. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements.
A contingent asset is disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Contingent assets are assessed continually and if it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the asset and related income are recognised in the period in which the change occurs.
3.13 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.
Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (e.g., regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Trade receivables generally do not contain any significant financing component requiring separation and are therefore recognized initially at the transaction price determined as per Ind AS 115, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in two categories:
• Debt instruments at amortised cost
• Equity instruments
Debt instruments at amortised cost
'Financial asset' is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
a. The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows, and
b. Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in finance income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss. This category generally applies to trade receivables.
Equity investments
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination
to which Ind AS103 applies are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, 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 P&L, 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 recognised in P & L.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Company of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. Removed from the Company's balance sheet) when:
• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass-through' arrangement and either (a) The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of
the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Company's continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Company has retained.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss.
The Company follows "Simplified approach” for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.
For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognised as an impairment gain or loss in profit or loss.
As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss allowance on portfolio of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivables and is adjusted for forward-looking estimates. At every reporting date, the historical observed default rates are updated and changes in the forward-looking estimates are analysed.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the statement of profit and loss (P&L). This amount is reflected under the head 'other expenses.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank over drafts.
Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Loans and borrowings
This is the category most relevant to the Company.
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method and, thereby, any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss over the period of the borrowings.
Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit and loss.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL
Financial liabilities at FVTPL include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at FVTPL. Financial liabilities at FVTPL primarily comprise derivative financial instruments entered into by the Company and not designated as hedging instruments in a hedging relationship as defined by Ind AS 109.
Gains or losses on such financial liabilities are recognised in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss.
The Company has not designated any financial liability as FVTPL.
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 or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits with banks that are readily convertible into cash which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.For this
purpose, "short-term” means investments having original maturities of three months or less from the date of investment. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Company's cash management and are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the standalone statement of cash flows.
Corporate Financial Guarantee:
The Company provides corporate financial guarantees to banks and financial institutions on behalf of its subsidiaries. These guarantees are accounted for in accordance with the principles laid down in Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments and Ind AS 110 - Consolidated Financial Statements.
At initial recognition, the fair value of the guarantee is determined based on the prevailing market fee for such financial instruments. The difference between the fair value of the guarantee and the consideration charged to the subsidiary is considered as an additional deemed investment in the subsidiary. Subsequently, the financial guarantee contract is measured at the higher of the amount of loss allowance and the amount initially recognized less cumulative income recognized.
3.14 Events after reporting date
Where events occurring after the balance sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting statements. Otherwise, events after the balance sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
3.15 Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associate are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Where an indication of impairment exists, the carrying amount of the investment is assessed and written down immediately to its recoverable amount. On disposal of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associate, the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts are recognised in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss.
3.16 Finance cost
Finance costs consist of interest expense on loans and borrowings. Borrowing costs are recognised in the standalone statement of Profit and Loss using the effective interest method unless capitalisation criteria are met as per accounting policy on Property, plant and equipment. The associated cash flows are classified as financing activities in the statement of cash flows.
Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis within other income and other expenses. These primarily include: exchange differences arising on the settlement or translation of monetary items.
3.17 Recent pronouncements:
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. MCA has notified following amendments:
1) During the year ended March 31, 2025, MCA has notified Ind AS 117 - Insurance Contracts and amendments to Ind As 116 - Leases, relating to sale and lease back transactions, applicable from April 1, 2024. The Company has assessed that there is no significant impact on its financial statements.
2) Ind AS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information to enable understand the impact on the entity's financial performance, financial position and cash flows. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after April 01, 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information. The Company has reviewed the new pronouncements and based on its evaluation has determined that it does not have any significant impact on its financial statements
Note:
a) The Company's pending litigations comprise claims against the Company and proceedings pending with Tax / Statutory/ Government Authorities. After review of all its pending litigations and proceedings, the Company has made adequate provisions, wherever required and disclosed the contingent liabilities, wherever applicable, in its financial statements. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings to have a material impact on its financial position. Future cash outflows in respect of the above are determinable only on receipt of judgments/ decisions pending with various forums/authorities.
b) The Company has issued guarantees and counter-guarantees on behalf of its customers in favor of various banks to support the customers' obligations to such banks. These guarantees and counter-guarantees have been provided in the normal course of business and are subject to the terms and conditions agreed with the respective banks.
As of 31 March 2025, the aggregate amount of such outstanding guarantees and counter-guarantees amounted to Rs.2304.44, which represents the maximum potential exposure to the Company under these arrangements. Management believes that the likelihood of any material obligation arising under these guarantees is remote, and accordingly, no provision has been recognized in the financial statements.
These guarantees do not involve the Company in any commitments or contingencies other than those arising in the ordinary course of business.
35 Segment information
The Company is engaged primarily in the business of manufacturing and sale of Electromechanical components and systems and allied components and services, which constitutes a single reportable segment in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 108 - Operating Segments. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) monitors the operating results of the Company as a whole for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Accordingly, no separate segment information is disclosed.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Although the Company operates as a single segment, revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by product categories and geographical areas as follows:
38 Employee benefits
A) Defined contribution plan
Employees Contribution to provident fund and employees state insurance (ESI) are recognised as expenditure in statement of profit and loss account, as they are incurred, there are no other obligation other than the contribution payable to aforesaid respective Trust/Government Authorities.
B) Defined benefit plan
The Company's obligation towards the Gratuity (LIC) is a defined benefit plan and is funded with Life Insurance Corporation of India. The following table sets out the funded status of the defined benefit scheme and the amount recognised in financial statements as per Actuarial Valuation.
(i) Regulatory Framework in which Plan operates:
The payment of Benefit is governed by the Provisions of Life Insurance Corporation. (Further details for disclosure to be decided by the LIC)
(ii) Entity's Responsibilities for Governance: All monetary amounts are in Indian Rupees (in lakhs) (INR), unless mentioned otherwise
(iii) Risk exposures: Valuations are performed on certain basic set of pre-determined assumptions and other regulatory framework which may vary over time. Thus, the Company is exposed to various risks in providing the above benefit which are as follows:
(a) Interest Rate risk: The plan exposes the Company to the rise of fall in interest rates. A fall in interest rates will result in an increase in the ultimate cost of providing the above benefit and will thus result in an increase in the value of the liability (as shown in financial statements).
(b) Liquidity Risk: This is the risk that the Company is not able to meet the short-term Benefit payouts. This may arise due to non availability of enough cash / cash equivalent to meet the liabilities or holding of illiquid assets not being sold in time.
(c) Salary escalation Risk: The present value of the defined benefit plan is calculated with the assumption of salary increase rate of plan participants in future. Deviation in the rate of increase of salary in future for plan participants from the rate of increase in salary used to determine the present value of obligation will have a bearing on the plan's liability.
(d) Demographic Risk: The Company has used certain mortality and attrition assumptions in valuation of the liability. The Company is exposed to the risk of actual experience turning out to be worse compared to the assumption.
(e) Regulatory Risk: Benefit is paid in accordance with the Provisions of Gratuity Act 1972 (as may be amended from time to time). There is a risk of change in provisions of Gratuity Act requiring higher Plan Benefit pay outs (e.g. change in benefit formula).
(viii) Asset Liability Matching Reserves: The Company has Life Insurance Corporation (Group Gratuity Manager) for administering the Plan liability. The funds of the Plan liability are invested by the Life Insurance Corporation, (LIC), pay the benefits to members of the enterprise as per Rules of the LIC. So the LIC is exposed to the liquidity risk of not being able to arrange for the benefit outgo due to cash liquidity problems and so the LIC faces a liquidity risk.
(ix) Funding arrangements and Funding Policy: The Company has Life Insurance Corporation (Group Gratuity Manager) for administering the Plan liability. The funds of the Plan liability are invested by the Life Insurance Corporation. LIC pay the benefits to members of the enterprise as per Rules of the LIC. So the LIC is exposed to the liquidity risk of not being able to arrange for the benefit outgo due to cash liquidity problems and so the LIC faces a liquidity risk. If the LIC purchased a Group insurance policy from an Insurance Company, the insurance Company, as part of the policy rules, makes payment of all the Plan Benefit.
Compensated absences:
The Company provides for accumulation of compensated absences by certain categories of its employees. These employees can carry forward a portion of the recognised compensated absences and recognised them in future periods or receive cash in lieu thereof as per the Company's policy. The Company records a liability for compensated absences in the period in which the employee renders the services that increases this entitlement. The total liability recorded by the Company towards this obligation was 19.34 lakhs and '2.90 lakhs as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024, respectively.

The lease payments associated with these leases amount to ?18.29 (for the year ended 31 March 2024: ?27.31).
41 Earnings per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. The basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders for the year relating to the dilutive potential equity shares, by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per share and the weighted average number of equities shares which could have been issued on the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Potential equity shares are deemed to be dilutive only if their conversion to equity shares would decrease the net profit per share.
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance and support Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and refundable deposits that derive directly from its operations. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Board of Director reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below.
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 two types of risk: interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity/ real estate risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and refundable deposits. The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024. The sensitivity analyses have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt and the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt.
The analysis excludes the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and other post retirement obligations; provisions.
The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024.
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 the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Company manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings. The Company does not enter into any interest rate swaps.
Interest rate sensitivity:
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on that portion of loans and borrowings affected. With all other variables held constant, the Company's profit before tax is affected through the impact on floating rate borrowings, as follows:
Foreign currency risk:
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company's operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). Considering the countries and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in exchange rates in those countries.
Any movement in the functional currency of the various operations of the Company against major foreign currencies may impact the Company's revenue in international business. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.
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. The credit risk arises principally from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its investing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions and other financial instruments.
Credit risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom credit has been granted after obtaining necessary approvals for credit. The collection from the trade receivables are monitored on a continuous basis by the receivables team.
The Company establishes an allowance for credit loss that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of trade and other receivables based on the past and the recent collection trend and based on the analysis has not provided any provision for expected credit losses on trade receivables.
Credit risk on cash and cash equivalent is limited as the Company generally transacts with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings assigned by international and domestic credit rating agencies.
Trade and other receivables
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.
The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.
For the purposes of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued capital and all other equity reserves. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise shareholder value. The Company manages it's capital structure and makes adjustments in the light of changes in economic environment and the requirements of the financial covenants.
For the purpose of debt to total equity ratio, debt considered is long-term and short-term borrowings. Total equity comprise of issued share capital and all other equity reserves.
Performance obligation:
Sale of Products: The Performance obligations in respect of sale of goods is satisfied when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of goods and payment is generally due as per the terms of contract with customers.
