37. Financial Instrument
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the financial assets and financial liabilities 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.
All the financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company are carried at amortised cost and their amortised cost represents the fair value of those assets /liabilities. Refer note no. 38 and 39 to the consolidated financial statements with regards to the admission of the Company to the CIRP process and submission of the claims by the various operations/ financial creditors and Government dues. Accordingly, the assets/liabilities of the Company are subject to the said CIRP process.
Capital Management and Financial Risk Management Framework:
The Company’s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company’s activity expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Company’s financial risk management policy is set by the Chairman and Managing Director and governed by overall direction of Board of Directors of the Company.
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments and deposits, foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings.
Foreign currency exchange rate risk:
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have a potential impact on the standalone statement of profit and loss and equity. This arises from transactions entered into in foreign currency and assets/liabilities which are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company.
A majority of the Company’s foreign currency transactions are denominated in US Dollars. Other foreign currency transactions entered into by the Company are in Sterling Pound (GBP), Euro, Saudi Riyal, Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar and UAE Dirhams. However, the size of these transactions are relatively small in comparison to the US dollar transactions. Thus, the foreign currency sensitivity analysis has only been performed in relation to the US Dollar (USD).
The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks. Further, in accordance with its risk management policy, Company does not hedge its risks by using any derivative financial instruments.
Foreign Currency sensitivity:
A 5% appreciation / depreciation of the USD with respect to INR would result in decrease / increase in the Company’s net loss before tax for the year ended 31st March, 2024 by approximately ? 0.31 Crores / ? 0.31 Crores respectively (previous year - ? 0.35 Crores / ? 0.35 Crores respectively).
Interest Rate Risk:
The Company is exposed to Interest rate risk because the Company has borrowed funds at both fixed & floating interest rates. Interest rate risk has been measured by using the cash flow sensitivity for changes in variable interest rates. The sensitivity analysis has been determined based on the exposure to financial instruments at the end of the reporting period. Any movement in reference rates could have an impact on the Company’s cash flows as well as costs.
The Company borrowed through a number of financial instruments such as External Commercial Borrowings (ECBs), Rupee term loans and working capital demand loans. The Holding Company was subject to variable interest rates on some of these interest-bearing liabilities.
However, as stated in note no. 16.1 (II) above, the account of the Holding Company was declared as NPA by banks and also admission of the Company into CIRP process, therefore, exposure of interest rate risk has not been disclosed.
Liquidity Risk:
Being under the CIRP, the Holding company does not have any sources of funds. Amount available in the current accounts, is being utilised by the RP to meet the cash flow needs of day-to-day operations/CIRP process in accordance with the IBC code and also to keep the company as Going concern.
Maturities of Financial liabilities:
Since the company is presently under CIRP, it is not required to meet any loan repayment or interest obligation / other operational creditors wherein the claims submission process is being going on and those claims are subject to CIRP process. Hence, no maturities profile of the financial liabilities has been given.
Credit Risk:
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counter party failure to repay or service debt according to the contractual terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses both the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration risks.
Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of trade receivables and loans.
(A) Trade Receivables:
The Company continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. The Company’s policy is to deal only with creditworthy counter parties. The Company management considers that all the financial assets that are not impaired for each of the reporting dates under
review are of good credit quality, including those that are past due.
Refer note no. 7 for provision for doubtful debts.
(B) Other Financial Assets:
The credit risk for liquid funds and other short-term financial assets is considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.
