m) Provisions, Contingent liabilities and Contingent assets
Provisions are recognized when the Company recognizes that it has a present obligation as a result of past events, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Provisions are measured at the present value of managements best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the
time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
Provision in respect of loss contingencies relating to claims, litigation, assessment, fines, penalties, etc. are recognised when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be estimated reliably
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. When 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.
Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.
Contingent assets are not recognized in financial statements.
n) Cash and Cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash-in¬ hand and cash on deposits with banks and financial institutions. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less and that are readily convertible to known amount of cash to be cash equivalents.
o) Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The Chief Executive officer assesses the financial performance and position of the Company, and makes strategic decisions. He is identified as being the chief operating decision maker for the Company. The Company has only one business segment, which is trading in garments and company generates revenue majorly from Domestic sales along with some export sales. Accordingly, the amounts appearing in these financial statements relate to this one business segment.
The accounting policies adopted for segment reporting are in line with the accounting policies of the Company. Segment assets include all operating assets used by the business segment and consist principally of fixed assets, trade receivables and inventories. Segment liabilities include operating liabilities pertaining to the segment.
Segment revenue, segment results, segment assets and segment liabilities include the respective amounts identifiable to each segment as also the amount allocable on a reasonable basis.
Segment assets and liabilities that cannot be allocated between the segments are shown as part of unallocated assets and liabilities respectively. Income and expenses relating to the enterprise as a whole and not allocable on a reasonable basis to business segment are reflected as unallocated income and expense.
p) Events after the reporting date
Where events occurring after the Balance Sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed as at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the standalone financial statements. Otherwise, events after the Balance Sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
q) Ind AS 103 - Reference to Conceptual Framework
The amendments specify that to qualify for recognition as part of applying the acquisition method, the identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed must meet the definitions of assets and liabilities in the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting under Indian Accounting Standards (Conceptual Framework) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India at the acquisition date. These changes do not significantly change the requirements of Ind AS 103. The Company does not expect the amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
r) Ind AS 16 - Proceeds before intended use
The amendments mainly prohibit an entity from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment amounts received from selling items produced while the company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, an entity will recognize such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss. The Company does not expect the amendments to have any impact in its recognition of its property, plant and equipment in its financial statements.
s) Ind AS 37 - Onerous Contracts - Costs of Fulfilling a Contract
The amendments specify that that the 'cost of fulfilling' a contract comprises the 'costs that relate directly to the contract' Costs that relate directly to a contract can either be incremental costs of fulfilling that contract (examples would be direct labour, materials) or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendment is essentially a clarification, and the Company does not expect the amendment to have any significant impact in its financial statements.
t) Recent Pronouncements relating to Provident Fund and Gratuity Act
The Indian Parliament has approved the Code on Social Security, 2020 which would impact the contributions by the company towards Provident Fund and Gratuity. The Ministry of Labour and Employment had released draft rules for the Code on Social Security, 2020 on November 13, 2020, and invited suggestions from stakeholders which are under consideration by the Ministry. The Company will assess the impact and its evaluation once the subject rules are notified. The Company will give appropriate impact in its financial statements in the period in which, the Code becomes effective and the related rules to determine the financial impact are published.

i. 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.
The carrying amount of following financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure:
Trade receivables
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.
However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate.
The Risk Management Committee has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the Company's standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company's review includes external ratings, if they are available, and in some cases bank references. Sale limits are established for each customer and reviewed quarterly. Any sales exceeding those limits require approval from the Risk Management Committee.
Goods are sold subject to retention of title clauses, so that in the event of non-payment the Company may have a secured claim. The Company does not otherwise require collateral in respect of trade and other receivables
B. Financial risk management (Continued)
Management believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due by more than 30 days are still collectible in full, based on historical payment behaviour and extensive analysis of customer credit risk, including underlying customers' credit ratings, if they are available.

ii. Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation.
Exposure to liquidity risk
The following are the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date. The amounts are gross and undiscounted:
B. Financial risk management (Continued)
iii. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices - will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including foreign currency receivables and payables and long term debt. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. Thus, our exposure to market risk is a function of borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currency. The objective of market risk management is to avoid excessive exposure in foreign currency revenues and costs.
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on account of its trade receivables and trade payables in foreign currency. The functional currency of the Company is Rs. The Company does not use any forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk.

Capital management
Equity share capital and other equity are considered for the purpose of Company's capital management. The Company's policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. Management monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders'
The board of directors seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position.
The Company monitors capital using a ratio of 'adjusted net debt' to ' total equity' For this purpose, adjusted net debt is defined as total liabilities, comprising interest-bearing loans and borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.
29 Employee benefits
(i) Defined contribution plan:
The Company makes contributions, determined as a specific percentage of employee salaries, in respect of qualifying employees towards provident fund and employees state insurance, which is a defined contribution plan. The Company has no obligations other than to make the specified contributions. The contributions are charged to the statement of profit and loss as they accrue. The amount recognised as an expense towards contribution to provident fund and employees state insurance for the year aggregated to ' 11.97 Lakhs (31 March 2023: ' 17.86 Lakhs)

ii) On death in service:
As per the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 without any vesting period.
Actuarial valuation of the defined benefit obligation for gratuity are carried out on a yearly basis, the most recent valuation being carried out as on 31 March 2024. The present value of the defined benefit obligations and the related current service cost and past service cost, are measured using the projected unit credit method (PUCM).
Based on the actuarial valuation obtained in this respect, the following table sets out the status of the gratuity plan and the amounts recognised in the Company's financial statements as at the balance sheet date:
D. Characteristics of defined benefit plans and risks associated with them:
Valuations of defined benefit plan 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 plans which are as follows:
a. Interest rate risk: The plan exposes the Company to the risk 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 (i.e. value of defined benefit obligation).
b. 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.
c. 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.
Notes:
1. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields on Indian Government securities as at the balance sheet date for the estimated term of the obligations.
2. The estimates of future salary increase considered in actuarial valuation take account of inflation, seniority, promotion, and other relevant factors such as supply and demand in employment market.
3. The Company does not have a carry forward or an encashment policy for compensated absences and hence no liability has been accrued in the financial statements.
