The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the financial assets is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For financial assets that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values. The fair values of the financial assets included above have been determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models.

33. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported balances 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. There are no significant areas involving a high degree of judgement or complexity.
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 period, 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.
i. Defined benefit plans (gratuity benefits)
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. 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 for plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes. Rate of increase in compensation are based on expected future inflation. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in note 30.
ii. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of Intangible assets
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets is calculated on a straight-line basis using the rates arrived at based on the useful lives and residual values as estimated by the management. The management believes that depreciation and amortization rates currently used fairly reflect its estimate of the useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
34. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include trade receivables, other financial assets, cash and cash equivalent and balance at bank other than cash and cash equivalent. The Company is exposed to credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The Company has a risk management policy and its management is supported by a risk management committee that advices on risk and appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Company. The risk management committee provides assurance to the Company's management that the risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks.
A. 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 Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables), cash and cash equivalent, balance at bank other than cash and cash equivalent and other financial assets. The Company deals with parties which has good credit rating /worthiness given by external rating agencies or based on Company's internal assessment. The major customers are usually the Government parties and export customers with high credit worthiness.
Exposure to credit risk
The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer and the carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk was (i) Rs. 1,545.16 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 2,126.10) being the total of the carrying amount of balances with trade receivables (including retention money) (ii) cashand cash equivalent (excluding cashonhand),balance atbankother thancash andcash equivalentand interestaccruedofRs.514.77 (March 31, 2023:Rs.314.18)and (iii) other financialassetsof Rs.27.69 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 21.97).
The measurement of impaired credit for carrying amount of the above financial assets is ascertained using the expected credit loss model (ECL) approach. Credit risk is managed through continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers. The Company is considerate of the fact the majority of the collection is receivable from export customers with high credit worthiness or the government companies where there are no significant risk of bad debts. The customers of the Company have a defined period for payment of receivables, hence the Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low. The total amount receivable from top 2 customers is Rs. 1,008.67 for March 31, 2024 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 1,829.43).
The cash and cash equivalent (excluding cash on hand), balance at bank other than cash and cash equivalent and interest accrued of Rs. 514.77 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 314.18) are held with banks having good credit rating.
The Company's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank deposits and loans.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities based on contractual undiscounted payments (including interest payments):
The cash credit facility amounting to Rs. 477.58 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 377.11), repayable on demand, has been disclosed as within 1 year for the purpose of disclosure of liquidity risk of the Company.
C. 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 foreign currency risk. The sensitivity analysis has been included in the below disclosures.
Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the statement of profit and loss. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollar (USD) as against the functional currency of the Company. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks.
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 is exposed to interest rate risk because certain funds are borrowed at floating interest rates. Interest rate risk is measured by using the cash flow sensitivity for changes in variable interest rate. The borrowings of the Company are principally denominated in rupees and US dollars with a mix of fixed and floating rates of interest. The Company has exposure to interest rate risk, arising principally on changes in base lending rate and LIBOR rates. The risk is managed by the Company by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate borrowings.
If interest rates had been 100 basis points (1%) higher / lower and all other variables were held constant, the Company's profit for the year end ended March 31, 2024 would decrease / increase by Rs. 19.02 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 14.28).
35. Capital management
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital and other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise the shareholder value.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. The Company's policy is to keep the gearing ratio to an acceptable level. The Company includes within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, less cash and cash equivalents excluding balance with monitoring agency account.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Company's capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing borrowing in the current year.
37. Fair values
There are no significant financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss except for Investment in units of mutual fund [refer note 4(c)] which has been valued using Level 1 valuation method as described in note 2.2(i).
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost approximates their carrying amounts as at the balance sheet date. (refer breakup of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss and breakup of financial assets and financial liabilities carried at amortised cost).
38. Segment Reporting
The chief operating officer / chief executive officer of the Company takes decision in respect of allocation of resources and assesses the performance basis the report / information provided by functional heads and are thus considered to be Chief Operating Decision Maker.
Based on the Company's business model, manufacturing high precision and heavy equipment, components, machines have been considered as a single business segment for the purpose of making decision on allocation of resources and assessing its performance. Accordingly, there are no separate reportable segments in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 108 'Operating segment' and hence, there are no additional disclosures to be provided other than those already provided in the financial statements. The information relating to revenue from external customers and location of non-current assets of its single reportable segment has been disclosed as below.
The geographic information analyses the Company's revenues and non-current assets by the country of domicile and other countries. In presenting geographic information, segment revenue has been based on the location of the customer and segment assets are based on geographical location of the assets.
Basis for calculating above ratios as below:
Current ratio = Current assets/Current Liabilities
Debt equity ratio = {Total debt=Borrowings (current Non current)} /{Shareholders funds= (Equity share capital Other equity)}
Debt service coverage ratio = (Net profit after tax Depreciation and amortisation Interest expense)/(Long term loans repayment Short term loans repayment)
Return on equity ratio= Net profit after taxes/ Average share holders funds
Inventory turnover ratio= Cost of goods sold/ Average inventory
Trade receivable turnover ratio= Revenue from operations/ Average trade receivable
Trade payable turnover ratio= Net credit purchases/ Average trade payables
Net capital turnover ratio= Revenue from operations/( Current assets- Current liabilities)
Net profit ratio= Net profit after tax/ Revenue from operations
Return on capital employed= Earning before interest and taxes/ (Share holders funds Borrowings (Current Non current))
Return on investment= Gain on investment/ Average investment 40. Other statutory information
