l) Provisions and Contingencies

Provision is recognised only when there is a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.

Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation that may, but probably will not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably. When the possible obligation in respect of which the outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote, it is not been disclosed as Contingent Liability.

m) Income Tax

Tax expense is the aggregate amount included in the determination of profit or loss for the period in respect of current tax and deferred tax.

Current Tax

Current tax is the amount of income tax payable in respect of taxable profit for the year. The taxable profit differs from profit before tax as reported in Statement of Profit and Loss because of items of income or expenses that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible under the Income Tax Act, 1961. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period for the amount expected to be paid to / recovered from the taxation authorities.

Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) credit is recognised as deferred tax asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the sufficient taxable profit will be available against which the MAT credit can be utilised.

Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statement and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised on all temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction (other than a business combination) affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit (tax loss).

Deferred tax assets are recognised for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised based on the review at the end of each reporting period by the company considering the likely timing and the level of

future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

As per the company's assessment on uncertainty over tax treatment on recognising Income tax with respect to Appendix C amendment, there are no material uncertainties over tax treatments.

Presentation of Current and Deferred Tax

Current and deferred tax is recognised in the statement of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In such cases, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income.

The company offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it is legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amount and where it intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

In case of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, the company offsets only when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authorities and it has legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities..

n) Employee Benefits

Short Term Employee Benefits

All employee benefits payable within twelve months of rendering service are classified as short term employee benefits and are recognised in the period

in which the employee renders the related service. The Company recognises the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid as a liability after deducting the amount already paid.

Post-employment Benefits

The Company operates the following postemployment schemes:

a) defined contribution plans such as provident fund; and

b) defined benefit plans such as gratuit Defined Contribution Plans

Defined Contribution Plans are Provident Fund, Employee State Insurance scheme and Government administered Pension Fund scheme for all applicable employees.

The company recognises contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as expenses in the statement of profit and loss when the employee renders services to the company during the reporting period. If the contribution payable for services received from employee before the reporting date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable is recognised as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid.

Defined Benefit Plans Gratuity obligations

Defined Contribution Plans are Provident Fund, Employee State Insurance scheme and Government administered Pension Fund scheme for all applicable employees. The company recognises contribution payable to a defined contribution plan as expenses in the statement of profit and loss when the employee renders services to the company during the reporting period. If the contribution payable for services received from employee before the reporting date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable is recognised as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid..

The Company operates a defined benefit plan for employees. The Company contributes to a seperate entity (a fund), towards meeting the gratuity obligation. The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by Independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method.The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows at a predetermined rate of interest based on the market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income.

Other long-term employee benefit obligations

The liabilities for earned leave which is not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted at a predetermined rate of interest based on yields on Government Bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

o) Operating Segments

Operating segments are identified in accordance with the criteria set out in paragraphs 5 to 10 of Ind AS 108 viz. a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which the company earns revenues and incur expenses and the operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's Chief

Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess the performance for which discrete financial information is available.

The operating segments are reported after taken into consideration of aggregation criteria and quantitative threshold as mentioned in Para 12 and 13 of Ind AS 108.

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the CODM of the company. The CODM is responsible for allocating the resources and assessing the performance of the operating segments of the company.

p) Leases

The Company's significant leasing arrangements are operating leases and cancelable in nature.

Company as Lessor

The lease rental income under agreements are recognised in the statement of profit and loss as per the terms of the lease. The rental income from operating lease is generally recognised on a straight line basis over the term of relevant lease. When the rentals are structured solely to increase in line with expected general inflation to compensate for the Company's expected inflationary cost increases, such increases are recognised in the year in which such benefits accrue. Contingent rental income arising under operating leases are recognised as income in the period in which they accrue.

Company as Lessee

The Company's lease asset classes primarily consists of leases for land and building. The Company assesses whether a contract 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 assets, the Company assesses whether: (i) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic

benefits from use of the identified asset through the period of the lease and (ii) the right to direct the use of the asset.

The Company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received

The Right-of-Use-Asset is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation thereon. The right-of-use asset is depreciated using the straightline method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.

The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost 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 rate. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a corresponding adjustment to the related Right-of-Use asset if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise an extension or a termination option.

Lease liability and Right-of-Use asset have been presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as cash flows from financing activities. The Interest expense and depreciation relating to Right-of- Use Asset have also been disclosed in the statement of profit and loss.

The Company has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises such lease payments relating to these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

q) Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of non cash nature, 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.

For the purpose of presentation of cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, cheques on hand, bank balances, demand deposit with banks where the original maturity is three months or less and other short term highly liquid investments.

r) Borrowings

Borrowings are initially recognised at net of transaction costs incurred and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Borrowing costs capitalisation be commenced by the company when (i) incurs expenditure for the asset (ii) incurs borrowing cost (iii) incurs activities that are necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss in the period in which they are incurred.

NOTE 48. DISCLOSURE UNDER IND AS 19 Contd.... :

ii) DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN :

GRATUITY

The company provides the Gratuity benefit through annual contributions to the fund managed by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC).

The defined benefit plans expose to the actuarial risks such as:

a) Interest Rate Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to government bond yields. 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 obligation.

b) Salary Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan is calculated based on the salary of plan participants in the future. Accordingly, an increase in salary of the plan participants will increase the defined benefit obligation and will have an exponential effect.

c) Investment Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated using a discount rate determined by reference to government bond yields. If there are significant changes in the discount rate during the inter valuation period, it can result in wide fluctuations in the net liability or plan assets.

d) Variability in mortality rates:

The present value of the defined benefit plan obligation is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. If actual mortality rates are higher than the assumed mortality rate assumption, there is a risk of payment of gratuity benefits earlier than expected.

The Company's principal financial liabilities includes borrowings, trade payable and other financial liabilities. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include investments, trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, Bank Balance other than cash and cash equivalent, loans and other financial assets that derive directly from its operations.

The senior management provides assurance that the Company's financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives.

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 price. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other risks, such as regulatory risk and commodity price risk. Financial Instruments affected by market risk includes investment, borrowings, trade receivable, trade payable and loans.

i) Interest rate risk

The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company's borrowings obligations with floating interest rate. Interest rate risk is managed by maintaining a combination of fixed and floating rate debt and cash management policies.

The carrying amount of Company's borrowings at the end of the reporting period is as under:

iii) 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.

As at 31st March, 2024, the carrying value of such equity instruments recognised at FVTOCI amounts to ' 307.21 Lakhs (' 168.88 Lakhs). The details of such investments in equity instruments are given in Note No 5.

b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument leading to a financial loss. Credit risk arising from trade receivables is managed in accordance with the Company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The Company had managed the credit risk with respect to trade receivables by selling majority of sugar sales covering minimal portion on credit basis.

The Company's exposure and credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions is reasonably spread amongst the counterparties. The company manages the risk by credit

aprroval. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on a detailed study of credit worthiness and accordingly individual credit limits are defined/modified.

The impairment for financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The Company uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the impairment calculation, based on the Company's past history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each balance sheet date. The company has recognised provision for Expected Credit Loss on the financial assets in the statement of Profit & Loss.

Financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. However, the Company continues to attempt to recover the receivables and are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when recovered.
