1.3 Provisions, contingent liabilities and Contingents Assets
A provision is recognized when the company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made. If the
effect of 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 recognized as a finance cost.
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 embodying economic benefits or the amount of such obligation cannot
be measured reliably. When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements, however they are disclosed where the inflow of
economic benefits is probable. When the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is no longer a
contingent asset and is recognised as an asset.
1.4 Fixed Assets
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost of acquisition as reduced by accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses, if any. Cost comprises the purchase price and attributable cost for bringing the asset to its working
condition for its intended use.
Intangible Assets
Intangible Fixed Assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses, if any. The Cost of
intangible assets comprises of cost of purchase, production cost and any attributable expenditure on making the asset
ready for its intended use.
Goodwill on Demerger
Goodwill on Demerger is amortised over a period of 10 years on pro-rata basis from the date of creation.
1.6 Revenue Recognition
The Company earns its revenue in the form of sponsorship and advertisement and revenue is recognised when the
related event occurs.
1.7 Employee Benefits
Defined Benefit Plan
Long term Employee benefits for Defined benefit schemes, such as leave encashment and gratuity, are provided on the
basis of actuary valuation taken at the end of each year.
All expenses represented by current service cost, past service cost, if any, and net interest on the defined benefit liability/
(asset) are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability/ (asset)
comprising actuarial gains and losses (excluding interest on the net defined benefit liability/ (asset)) are recognised in
Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Such remeasurements are not reclassified to the statement of profit and loss, in the
subsequent periods.
Other short -term employee benefits are charged to profit & loss account on accrual basis.
1.8 Borrowing Cost
Borrowings are initially recognised at net of transaction costs incurred and measured at amortised cost. Any difference
between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the Statement of Profit and
Loss over the period of the borrowings using the EIR.
Preference shares, which are mandatorily redeemable on a specific date are classified as liabilities. The dividend on
these preference shares is recognised as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to development of qualifying asset are capitalized till the date qualifying asset is ready
for put to use for its intended purpose. All other Borrowing costs are recognized as expense and charged to profit & loss
account.
1.9 Leases
Finance lease
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Operating Lease
Lease of assets under which all the risks and rewards of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as
operating leases. Operating Lease payments / revenue are recognised on straight line basis over the lease period in the
statement of profit and loss account unless increase is on account of inflation.
1.10 Financial Instruments
I) Financial Assets
a Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are initially recognized at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition or issue of financial assets , which are not at fair value through profit or loss, are adjusted to the fair value
on initial recognition. Purchase and sale of financial assets are recognised using trade date accounting.
b Subsequent Measurement
Financial assets carried at amortised cost (AC)
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset
in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates
to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)
A financial asset is measured at FVTOCI if it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both
collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset give
rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured at FVTPL.
d Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company uses 'Expected Credit Loss' (ECL) model, for evaluating impairment of
financial assets other than those measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).
Expected credit losses are measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
i) The 12-months expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from those default events on
thefinancial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date); or"
ii) Full lifetime expected credit losses (expected credit losses that result from all possible default events overthe
life of the financial instrument)
For trade receivables Company applies 'simplified approach' which requires expected lifetime losses to be
recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company uses historical default rates to determine
impairment loss on the portfolio of trade receivables. At every reporting date these historical default rates are
reviewed and changes in the forward looking estimates are analysed.
For other assets, the Company uses 12 month ECL to provide for impairment loss where there is no significant
increase in credit risk. If there is significant increase in credit risk full lifetime ECL is used.
e De-recognition of financial instruments
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset
expire or it transfers the financial asset and the transfer qualifies for de-recognition under Ind AS 109. A financial
liability (or a part of a financial liability) is de-recognized from the Company's Balance Sheet when the obligation
specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
II) Financial Liabilities
a Initial Recognition and Measurement
All Financial Liabilities are recognized at fair value and in case of borrowings, net of directly attributable
cost, Fee of recurring nature are directly recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss as finance cost.
b For trade and other payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying
amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
1.11 Taxes on Income
Tax expense comprises both current and deferred taxes. Current Tax provision as per Income Tax Act, 1961, is made
based on the tax liability computed after considering tax allowances and exemptions at the balance sheet date.
"Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of current year timing differences between taxable income and accounting
income for the year and reversal of timing differences of earlier years. Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates
and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date."
"Deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that there is reasonable certainty that sufficient future taxable income
will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized. Deferred tax assets are recognized on carry
forward of unabsorbed depreciation and tax losses only if there is virtual certainty that such deferred tax assets can be
realized against future taxable profits."
The carrying amount of Deferred Tax Assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and written down or written up, to
reflect the amount that is reasonably / virtually certain, as the case may be, to be realized.
1.12 Earning Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders by
the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculation diluted
earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
1.13 Impairment of Assets
The carrying values of assets / cash generating units at each Balance Sheet date are reviewed for impairment. If any
indication of impairment exists, the recoverable amount of such assets is estimated and impairment is recognised, if the
carrying amount of these assets exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net
selling price and their value in use. Value in use is arrived at by discounting the future cash flows to their present value
based on an appropriate discount factor.

29 Financial Risk Management
The Company's business activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks, namely liquidity risk, market risks and credit risk.
The Company's senior management has the overall responsibility for establishing and governing the Company's risk
management framework. The Company has constituted a core Management Committee, which is responsible for
developing and monitoring the Company's risk management policies. The Company's risk management policies are
established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set and monitor appropriate risk limits and controls,
periodically review the changes in market conditions and reflect the changes in the policy accordingly. The key risks and
mitigating actions are also placed before the Audit Committee of the Company.
A) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will face in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities.The
Company's approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities when due
without incurring unacceptable losses.
The Company maintained a cautious liquidity strategy, with a positive cash balance throughout the year ended 31st
March, 2023 and 31st March, 2022. Cash flow from operating activities provides the funds to service the financial
liabilities on a day-to-day basis. The Company regularly monitors the rolling forecasts to ensure it has sufficient cash
on an on-going basis to meet operational needs. Any short term surplus cash generated, over and above the
amount required for working capital management and other operational requirements, is retained as cash and
cash equivalents (to the extent required) and any excess is invested in interest bearing term deposits and other highly
marketable debt investments with appropriate maturities to optimise the cash returns on investments while ensuring
sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities.
B) 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. Financial
instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings and deposits.
Interest Rate Risk
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. This risk exist mainly on account of borrowings of the Company. However, all these
borrowings are at fixed interest rate and hence the exposure to change in interest rate is insignificant.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes
in foreign exchange rates. The Company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risk as at the respective
reporting dates.
C) 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) and other financial assets.
I) 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. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting
date on an individual basis for major trade receivables.
II) Other Financial Assets
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company in accordance with
the Company's policy.
D) Excessive Risk Concentration
Concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the
same geographical region, or have economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual
obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions. Concentrations indicate
the relative sensitivity of the Company's performance to developments affecting a particular industry.
In order to avoid excessive concentrations of risk, the Company's policies and procedures include specific
guidelines to focus on the maintenance of a diversified portfolio. Identified concentrations of credit risks are
controlled and managed accordingly.
31 The Company has gradually undertaken the ground event, however, the company's current liability are 3.62 times of
current assets and the company is not able to service its debt obligation. These facts indicate material uncertainty with
respect to company's ability to continue as going concern unless company is able to generate cash flows from operating
activities and raising of sufficient long term funds.
