xix. Provisions General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) 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 of the amount of the obligation. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example, under an insurance contract, 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 or loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the 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 recognised as a finance cost.
Contingent liability
Contingent liability is disclosed in the case of :
- a present obligation arising from past events, when it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation;
- a present obligation arising from past events, where no reliable estimate is possible; and
- a possible obligation arising from past events, unless the probability of outflow of resources is remote.
A contingent asset is disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits is probable.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date.
xx. Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition accounting method as at the date of the acquisition. The consideration transferred in the acquisition and the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognised at fair values on their acquisition date. Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Consideration transferred does not include amounts related to settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Transaction costs are expensed in the standalone statement of profit and loss as incurred, other than those incurred in relation to the issue of debt or equity securities which are directly adjusted in other equity.
xxi. Investment in subsidiary
The Company has elected to recognize its investment in subsidiary at cost in accordance with the option available in IND AS 27, 'Separate Financial Statement'. The details of such investments are given in Note 6. Impairment policy applicable on such investments is explained above.
2.3. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make judgements, 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.
a. Judgements
In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, the management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:
Determining the lease term of contracts with renewal and termination options - Company as lessee
The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
The Company has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Company applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate.
b. 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. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
Defined benefit plans
The cost of the defined benefit plans and other employment benefits and the present value of the obligation are determined using actuarial valuation. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, 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 parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation. The underlying bonds are further reviewed for quality. Those having excessive credit spreads are excluded from the analysis of bonds on which the discount rate is based, on the basis that they do not represent high quality corporate bonds.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at intervals in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases are based on expected future inflation rates for the country.
Further details about defined benefit obligations are provided in Note 33.

B. Financial risk management
The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees and advises on these risks. The Company's senior finance team advises on financial risks and provides assurance that the Company's financial risk are identified, measured, managed and mitigated in accordance with general risk mitigation policies and objectives. All derivative activities are carried out by senior finance team who has the appropriate skills, expertise and experience and is being overseen by the Managing Director from time to time as per business needs. It is the Company's policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes be undertaken. The Board of Directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised 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 three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include deposits, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024.
The sensitivity analysis have been prepared on the basis that the amount of net debt, the ratio of fixed to floating interest rates of the debt and derivatives and the proportion of financial instruments in foreign currencies are all constant and on the basis of the hedge designations in place at 31 March 2025.
The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity, pension and other post-retirement obligations and provisions.
The following assumption has been made in calculating the sensitivity analysis:
The sensitivity of the relevant statement of 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.
Commodity price risk
The Company is affected by the price volatility of resin, base raw material for manufacturing PVC Films and being sourced from both domestic and international suppliers. The price volatility is due to demand-supply position in international market and exchange impact arising due to delivery lead time. The upward or downward trend in raw material is generally being passed on to the end customer other than exceptional cases as per business needs and therefore neutralising the exchange risks arising therefrom and as such the impact of such volatility, is difficult to be quantified or measured.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. A provision is created for a counter party whose payment is due more than 180 days after its due date.
Trade receivables
Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company's established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. Credit quality of a customer is assessed based on an extensive credit rating scorecard and individual credit limits are defined in accordance with this assessment. Outstanding customer receivables are regularly monitored and any shipments to major customers are generally covered by letters of credit or other forms of credit insurance.
Financial instruments and cash deposits (c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations. The Company monitors its liquidity position on the basis of expected cash flows. The Company's approach is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations at all point in time.
NOTE 41: CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company.
