significant assumptions used during the Some of the basic assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model are –
year to estimate the fair value of options
Markets are efficient: This assumption suggests that people cannot
consistently predict the direction of the market or an individual stock.
The Black-Scholes model assumes stocks move in a manner referred
to as a random walk. Random walk means that at any given moment in
time, the price of the underlying stock can go up or down with the same
probability. The price of a stock in time t+1 is independent from the price
in time Interest rates remain constant and known: The Black -Scholes
model uses the risk-free rate to represent this constant and known rate.
Returns are normally distributed: This assumption suggests returns on
the underlying stock are normally distributed.
Constant volatility- The most significant assumption is that volatility, a
measure of how much a stock can be expected to move in the near-
term, is a constant over time. While volatility can be relatively constant
in very short term, it is never constant in longer term. Some advanced
option valuation models substitute Black-Scholes constant volatility
with stochastic-process generated estimates.
Liquidity- the Black-Scholes model assumes that markets are perfectly
liquid and it is possible to purchase or sell any amount of stock or options
or their fractions at any given time.
7. Weighted-average values of share price The fair value is computed using the existing share price of the Company,
for which we have taken the closing market price of 19 April 2021 i.e. day
of the grant date at NSE i.e. ` 3,147.95/- per share.

9. Expected Volatility Vest 1: 44.1%
Vest 2: 42.2%
Vest 3: 42.1%
Vest 4: 42.2%
10. Expected Option Life The options granted under Scheme will vest over a period of Four years
in equal proportion at the end of each year anniversary from the date of
grant of options. Further the Options vested at the each period may be
exercised by the Option Grantee within a maximum period of Three Year
from the date of vesting of Options. Hence, maximum term of for each
Option granted will vary from 4 years to 7 years depending upon vesting
period.
11. Expected Dividends Grant 2018 The Dividend Yield is 0.29%.

**** The Payment of Bonus (Amendment) Act, 2015 dated 31 December 2015 (which was made effective from 01 April 2014)
revised the thresholds for coverage of employee eligible for Bonus and also enhanced the ceiling limits for computation
of bonus. However, taking cognizance of the stay granted by various High Courts, the Company has not recognised any
differential amount of bonus for the period 01 April 2014 to 31 March 2015 and accordingly has recognised the expense
as per the amended provisions w.e.f. 1 April 2015 and onwards.
^ The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has pronounced a ruling dated 28 February 2019 in which it is held that ‘allowance’
paid to employees, will be included in the scope of ‘basic wages’ and thus, will be subject to provident fund contributions.
Petitions have been filed with Hon’ble Supreme Court of India seeking additional clarification with respect to the application
of this ruling. As this ruling has not prescribed any clarification w.r.t. to its application, the Company is in the process of
evaluating its impact. Management believes that this will not result in any material liability on the Company.
# The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The
Company’s management reasonably expects that these legal actions, when ultimately concluded and determined, will
not have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

pay Income-tax at concessional rate of 22% plus applicable surcharge and cess, subject to certain specified conditions, as
compared to the present rate of 30% plus applicable surcharge and cess for the assessment year 2020-21 onwards. The
Company expects to avail the lower tax rate from a later financial year and accordingly remeasured deferred tax at such
concessional rate, only to the extent that the deferred tax assets are expected to be realised or deferred tax liabilities are
expected to be settled in the periods during which the Company expects to be subject to lower tax rate.

The Company had unused MAT credit amounting to ` 3,658.03 lakh as at 31 March 2022 (previous year : ` 3,652.30 lakh). MAT
paid can be carried forward for a period of 15 years and can be set off against the future tax liabilities. MAT is recognised as a
deferred tax asset only when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit associated
with the asset will be realised.

(ii) The reasons for significant change in ratio is due to increase in debt taken by the Company for meeting its capital
requirements for expansion of existing facilities and set-up of new manufacturing units.
(iii) The increase in ratio is primarily attributable to the increase in revenue from operations during FY 2021-22 in comparison
to FY 2020-21, which was largely impacted owing to COVID-19 pandemic.
(iv) The decrease in ratio is due to increase in commodity prices and share based payment expenses incurred during current
financial year.
(v) The change in ratio is attributable to the increase in debt taken by the Company for meeting its capital requirements
for expansion of existing facilities, set-up of new manufacturing units, increase in commodity prices and share based
payment expenses incurred during current financial year
(vi) The increase in ratio is attributable to the reason that there was negligible income from perpetual bonds in FY 2020-21
as the investment in bonds was done at the end of the FY 20-21.

STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


short-term leases, each lease is reflected on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The Company
classifies its right-of-use assets in a consistent manner to its property, plant and equipment.
Each lease generally imposes a restriction that, unless there is a contractual right for the Company to sublet the asset to
another party, the right-of-use asset can only be used by the Company. For leases over factory premises, the Company must
keep those properties in a good state of repair and return the properties in their original condition at the end of the lease.

A The following are amounts recognised in profit or loss:

by management to provide flexibility in managing the leased-asset portfolio and align with the Company’s business
needs. Management exercises significant judgement in determining whether these extension and termination options are
reasonably certain to be exercised.
F Operating leases as lessor
The Company leases out investment properties under operating leases (refer note 6).

The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant.
In practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating
the sensitivity of the defind benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present
value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting
period) has been applied which was applied while calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognised in
the balance sheet.
The methods and types of assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis did not change compared to
previous year.

52. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

i) Fair values hierarchy


Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are divided into
three Levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability of significant inputs to the
measurement, as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for financial instruments.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation
techniques which maximise the use of observable market data rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in
level 3.

ii) Financial instruments measured at fair value - recurring fair value measurements
The following table shows the levels within the hierarchy of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value
on a recurring basis.

Total financial liabilities 31,867.16 32,144.94 15,567.83 15,686.18
The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, trade receivables, other current financial
assets, trade payables, short term borrowings and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts
largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the financial assets and 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. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
(i)  Long-term fixed-rate receivables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates,
individual creditworthiness of the customer and other market risk factors.
(ii)  The fair values of the Company’s borrowings, fixed interest-bearing receivables and lease liabilities are determined
by applying discounted cash flows (‘DCF’) method, using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowing rate
as at the end of the reporting period. The own non-performance risk as at 31 March 2022 was assessed to be
insignificant.
(iii) All the other long term borrowing facilities availed by the Company are variable rate facilities which are subject to
changes in underlying interest rate indices. Further, the credit spread on these facilities are subject to change with
changes in Company’s creditworthiness. The management believes that the current rate of interest on these loans
are in close approximation from market rates applicable to the Company. Therefore, the management estimates that
the fair value of these borrowings are approximate to their respective carrying values.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER EXPLANATORY INFORMATION FOR THE
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 (Contd.)

A) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Company. The Company is exposed
to this risk for various financial instruments, for example by granting loans and receivables to customers, placing
deposits, etc. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of following types
of financial assets.
- cash and cash equivalents,
- trade receivables,
- loans and receivables carried at amortised cost,
- deposits with banks, and
- investment in perpetual bonds

a) Credit risk management


The Company assesses and manages credit risk based on internal credit rating system, continuously
monitoring defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either individually or by the Company, and
incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. Internal credit rating is performed for each class of
financial instruments with different characteristics. The Company assigns the following credit ratings to each
class of financial assets based on the assumptions, inputs and factors specific to the class of financial assets.
A: Low
B: Medium
C: High

B: Medium Trade receivables 63.52 37.29
C: High Trade receivables 11.92 7.39

Cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits


Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits is managed by only accepting highly rated
banks and diversifying bank deposits and accounts in different banks.
Trade receivables
The Company closely monitors the credit-worthiness of the debtors through internal systems that are
configured to define credit limits of customers, thereby, limiting the credit risk to pre-calculated amounts. The
Company assesses increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis for amounts receivable that become past due.
Other financial assets measured at amortised cost
Other financial assets measured at amortised cost includes loans and advances to employees, security deposits
and others. Credit risk related to these other financial assets is managed by monitoring the recoverability of
such amounts continuously, while at the same time internal control system in place ensure the amounts are
within defined limits.
Investment in perpetual bonds
For Investments in perpetual bonds, counterparty risk are in place to limit the amount of credit exposure to any
one counterparty. This results in diversification of credit risk for Company’s investments in perpetual bonds.

Other financial assets measured at amortised cost


The Company provides for expected credit losses on loans and advances by assessing individual financial
instruments for expectation of any credit losses. Since this category includes loans and receivables of
varied natures and purpose, there is no trend that the Company can draws to apply consistently to entire
population For such financial assets, the Company’s policy is to provides for 12 month expected credit
losses upon initial recognition and provides for lifetime expected credit losses upon significant increase in
credit risk. The Company does not have any expected loss based impairment recognised on such assets
considering their low credit risk nature, though incurred loss provisions are disclosed under each sub-
category of such financial assets.

B) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the
nature of the business, the Company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed
facilities. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents
on the basis of expected cash flows. The Company takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity
operates. In addition, the Company’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies
and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against
internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

a) Financing arrangements

The Company’s fixed deposits are carried at amortised cost and are fixed rate deposits. They are therefore
not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future
cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
The Company’s investments in perpetual bonds are carried at fair value through other comprehensive
income and are fixed rate investments. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in
Ind AS 107.
The Company has advanced loans to related parties at variable interest rates. The loans are therefore

Notes:
(i) Amortisation for the year has been included in line item ‘Depreciation and amortisation expense’ in statement of profit and loss.
(ii) Impairment testing of Goodwill and intangible asset with indefinite useful life
During the current year, the Group entered into business combinations with AmberPR Technoplast India Private Limited (formerly known as Pasio India Private Limited) and Pravartaka Tooling Services
Private Limited, whereby it accquired goodwill of INR 2340.27 lakhs. Other than that, the Group has recognised goodwill amounting INR 12,256.44 lakhs and brandname with indefinite useful life amounting
INR 8,168.00 lakhs from acquistion of other subsidiaries during the previous financial year.
The Group tests goodwill and brandname anually for impairment, or more frequently if an event occurs to warrant a review. The recoverable amount attributed to the CGU is based on value in use
calculations. The key assumptions made in undertaking the value in use calculations involve estimating post- tax cash flows.
Budgeted profit and cash flows forecasts for the financial year ending 31 March 2022 have been extrapolated for a period of five years and a terminal growth rate of 5% has been applied thereafter and used
as the basis of the calculations.
Discount rate assuptions are based on management estimates of the internal cost of capital likely to apply over the expected useful economic useful life of the goodwill and management’s view of the risk
associated. A discount rate of 15.64% has been applied.
(iii) During the year, there was an impairment loss on intangble assets amounting to INR 0.99 lakh (previous year: Nil).

(v) The Payment of Bonus (Amendment) Act, 2015 dated 31 December 2015 (which was made effective from 01 April 2014)
revised the thresholds for coverage of employee eligible for Bonus and also enhanced the ceiling limits for computation
of bonus. However, taking cognizance of the stay granted by various High Courts, the Company has not recognised any
differential amount of bonus for the period 01 April 2014 to 31 March 2015 and accordingly has recognised the expense
as per the amended provisions w.e.f. 1 April 2015 and onwards.
(vi) Other labour related cases majorily comprises of cases under Minimum Wages Law claiming INR 18 lakh for payment
of wages below minimum wages. Based on the advice from independent expert and development of the case, the
management is confident that such addition will not be sustained on completion of the appellate and accordingly, pending
the decision by the appellate authority no adjustment has been made in the financial statements.
# The Group is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Group’s
management reasonably expects that these legal actions, when ultimately concluded and determined, will not have a
material and adverse effect on the Group’s results of operations or financial condition.
# The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has pronounced a ruling dated 28 February 2019 in which it is held that ‘allowance’
paid to employees, will be included in the scope of ‘basic wages’ and thus, will be subject to provident fund contributions.
Petitions have been filed with Hon’ble Supreme Court of India seeking additional clarification with respect to the application
of this ruling. As this ruling has not prescribed any clarification w.r.t. to its application, the Company is in the process of
evaluating its impact. Management believes that this will not result in any material liability on the Company.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Unabsorbed depreciation can be carried forward indefinitely.
- MAT credit entitlement
The Group had unused MAT credit amounting to INR 3,679.51 lakh as at 31 March 2022 (previous year: INR 3,652.30 lakh).
MAT paid can be carried forward for a period of 15 years and can be set off against the future tax liabilities. MAT is recognised
as a deferred tax asset only when the asset can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefit
associated with the asset will be realised.
(iii) The Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act, 2019 has amended the Income-tax Act, 1961 to provide an option to the Company
to pay Income-tax at concessional rate of 22% plus applicable surcharge and cess, subject to certain specified conditions,
as compared to the present rate of 30% plus applicable surcharge and cess for the assessment year 2020-21 onwards.
The Holding Company expects to avail the lower tax rate from a later financial year and accordingly remeasured deferred
tax at such concessional rate, only to the extent that the deferred tax assets are expected to be realised or deferred tax
liabilities are expected to be settled in the periods during which the Holding Company expects to be subject to lower tax
rate. Subsidiary companies, except Il JIN Electronics (India) Private Limited, have opted for the concessional tax rate.
(iv) Subsidiaries of the Group have undistributed earnings which, if paid out as dividends, would be subject to tax in the hands
of recipient. An assessable temporary difference exists, but no deferred tax liability has been recognised as the Holding
Company is able to control the timing of distributions from a subsidiary and is not expected to distribute these profits in
the foreseeable future.

49. LEASES

Lease liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position as follows:

(All amounts in ` in lakh unless otherwise stated)


Particulars As at As at

Current 627.09 251.79
Non-current 3,046.49 1,186.05
3,673.58 1,437.84
The Group has leases for plant and machinery, office premises, factory lands, warehouses, residential premises and related
facilities. With the exception of short-term leases, each lease is reflected on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a
lease liability. The Group classifies its right-of-use assets in a consistent manner to its property, plant and equipment.
Each lease generally imposes a restriction that, unless there is a contractual right for the Group to sublet the asset to another
party, the right-of-use asset can only be used by the Group. For leases over factory premises the Group must keep those
properties in a good state of repair and return the properties in their original condition at the end of the lease.

A. The following are amounts recognised in profit or loss:


(All amounts in ` in lakh unless otherwise stated)
Particulars As at As at
31 March 2022 31 March 2021
Depreciation expense of right-of-use assets 558.98 346.52

Rent expense* 2,635.75 2,062.86
Total 3,420.38 2,554.91
*Rent expense in case of short term leases
B. The lease liabilities are secured by the related underlying assets. The maturity analysis of lease liabilities are disclosed in
note 52.
C. The Group does not have any liability to make variable lease payments for the right to use the underlying asset recognised
in the financials.
D. Total cash outflow for leases for the year ended 31 March 2022 was ` 2,177.07 lakh. (Previous year: ` 1,795.38 lakhs)
E. The Group has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. These options are negotiated by
management to provide flexibility in managing the leased-asset portfolio and align with the Group’s business needs.
Management exercises significant judgement in determining whether these extension and termination options are
reasonably certain to be exercised.

F. Operating leases as lessor


The Group had leased out a portion of its Noida premises to D&Y Technologies Private Limited and was earning rental
income from such lease. The party had vacated the premises in the previous year. Hence this property had not been
classified as investment property and rental income was recognised on straightline basis over the remaining lease term.

Notes:
1) The gratuity plan of the Group is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. Under the Gratuity Act,
employees are entitiled to specific benefit at the time of retirement or termination of the employment on
completion of five years or death while in employment. The level of benefit provided depends on member’s
length of service and salary at the time of retirement/termination age.
2) The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yield of Indian Government bonds as at the balance sheet
date for the estimated terms of obligations.
3) The estimates of future salary increases considered takes into account the inflation, seniority, promotion and
other relevant factors.
4) Plan assets comprise funds managed by the insurer i.e. Life Insurance Corporation of India (‘LIC’).
5) The Holding Company makes annual contributions to the LIC of an amount advised by them.
6) The best estimated expense for the next year is ` 327.48 lakh.
7) The weighted average duration of defined benefit obligation is 8.86-23 years (previous year: 15-25 years).

(vii) Sensitivity analysis for gratuity liability

- Impact due to decrease of 0.50 - 1.00 % 267.97 112.18
Impact of change in salary increase
Present value of obligation at the end of the year 1,570.97 1,214.68
- Impact due to increase of 0.50 - 1.00 % 267.61 111.88
- Impact due to decrease of 0.50 - 1.00 % (33.43) (109.11)
The above sensitivity analysis is based on a change an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In
practice, this is unlikely to occur and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the
sensitivity of the defind benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the
defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been
applied which was applied while calculating the defined benefit obligation liability recognised in the balance sheet.

51 FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

i) Fair values hierarchy


Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position are divided into
three Levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability of significant inputs to the
measurement, as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for financial instruments.
 evel 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation
L
techniques which maximise the use of observable market data rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

ii) Financial instruments measured at fair value - recurring fair value measurements
The following table shows the levels within the hierarchy of financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

[refer (d) below]

A. Valuation process and technique used to determine fair value


(a) The Group had entered into forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
These financial exposures had been managed in accordance with the Groups’s risk management policies and
procedures. ‘Derivative assets are valued using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date.
(b) The fair value of investments in quoted bonds is based on the current bid price of respective investment as at the
balance sheet date.
(c) The fair value of investments in unquoted equity shares is based on the discounted future cash flows of respective
investment.
(d) In order to arrive at the fair value of put liability for acquisition of non-controlling interest, the Company obtained fair
value of options and non-controlling interest using appropriate method with the assistance of valuation expert.

Total financial liabilities 44,401.17 50,377.27 21,611.44 21,859.34

The management assessed that cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, trade receivables, current loans, other
current financial assets, trade payables, short term borrowings and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying
amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the financial assets and 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. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
(i) Long-term fixed-rate receivables are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rates, individual
creditworthiness of the customer and other market risk factors.
(ii) The fair values of the Group’s borrowings, fixed interest-bearing receivables and lease liabilities are determined
by applying discounted cash flows (‘DCF’) method, (‘DCF’) method, using discount rate that reflects the issuer’s
borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own non-performance risk as at 31 March 2022 was
assessed to be insignificant.

(iii) All the other long term facilities availed by the Group are variable rate facilities which are subject to changes in
underlying interest rate indices. Further, the credit spread on these facilities are subject to change with changes
in Group’s creditworthiness. The management believes that the current rate of interest on these loans are in close
approximation from market rates applicable to the Group. Therefore, the management estimates that the fair value

of these borrowings are approximate to their respective carrying values.

AND OTHER EXPLANATORY INFORMATION FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 (Contd.)

- deposits with banks, and


- investment in perpetual bonds.

a) Credit risk management


The Group assesses and manages credit risk based on internal credit rating system, continuously monitoring
defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either individually or by the Group, and incorporates
this information into its credit risk controls. Internal credit rating is performed for each class of financial
instruments with different characteristics. The Group assigns the following credit ratings to each class of
financial assets based on the assumptions, inputs and factors specific to the class of financial assets.
A: Low
B: Medium
C: High
Assets under credit risk –
(All amounts in ` in lakh unless otherwise stated)
Credit rating Particulars 31 March 2022 31 March 2021
A: Low Loans 180.94 2,191.70
Investments 22,540.92 10,807.14
Other financial assets 13,280.32 14,057.43
Cash and cash equivalents 29,858.30 17,996.29
Other bank balances 26,400.81 10,996.87
Trade receivables 1,31,491.25 1,06,899.16
B: Medium Trade receivables 63.53 37.27
C: High Trade receivables 570.39 583.84
Other financial assets 12.58 12.58
Cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits
Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents and bank deposits is managed by only accepting highly rated
banks and diversifying bank deposits and accounts in different banks.
Trade receivables
The Group closely monitors the credit-worthiness of the debtors through internal systems that are configured
to define credit limits of customers, thereby, limiting the credit risk to pre-calculated amounts. The Group
assesses increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis for amounts receivable that become past due.
Other financial assets measured at amortised cost
Other financial assets measured at amortized cost includes loans and advances to employees, security deposits
and others. Credit risk related to these other financial assets is managed by monitoring the recoverability of
such amounts continuously, while at the same time internal control system in place ensure the amounts are
within defined limits.
Investment in perpetual bonds
For Investments in perpetual bonds, counterparty risk are in place to limit the amount of credit exposure to any
one counterparty. This results in diversification of credit risk for Company’s investments in perpetual bonds.

b) Expected credit losses


Trade receivables
(i) The Group recognises lifetime expected credit losses on trade receivables using a simplified approach,
wherein Group has defined percentage of provision by analysing historical trend of default and such
provision percentage determined have been considered to recognise life time expected credit losses on
trade receivables (other than those where default criteria are met in which case the full expected loss
against the amount recoverable is provided for).

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Other financial assets measured at amortised cost
The Group provides for expected credit losses on loans and advances by assessing individual financial
instruments for expectation of any credit losses. Since this category includes loans and receivables of
varied natures and purpose, there is no trend that the Group can draws to apply consistently to entire
population for such financial assets, the Group’s policy is to provides for 12 month expected credit losses
upon initial recognition and provides for lifetime expected credit losses upon significant increase in credit
risk. The Group does not have any expected loss based impairment recognised on such assets considering
their low credit risk nature, though incurred loss provisions are disclosed under each sub-category of such
financial assets.

B) Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability
of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the nature
of the business, the Group maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed facilities.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis
of expected cash flows. The Group takes into account the liquidity of the market in which the entity operates. In
addition, the Group’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows in major currencies and considering
the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and
external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

a) Financing arrangements
The Group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:
(All amounts in ` in lakh unless otherwise stated)

b) Interest rate risk

i) Liabilities
The Group’s policy is to minimise interest rate cash flow risk exposures on long-term financing. At 31
March 2022, the Group is exposed to changes in market interest rates through bank borrowings at variable
interest rates. The Group’s investments in fixed deposits all pay fixed interest rates.

* Holding all other variables constant

ii) Assets
The Group’s fixed deposits are carried at amortised cost and are fixed rate deposits. They are therefore
not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future
cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.
‘The Group’s investments in perpetual bonds are carried at fair value through other comprehensive income
and are fixed rate investments. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107.

c) Price Risk
Exposure
The Group’s exposure to price risk arises from investments held and classified in the balance sheet either as
fair value through other comprehensive income. To manage the price risk arising from investments, the Group
diversifies its portfolio of assets.

D) Other risk- Impact of COVID-19
In March 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) had declared the outbreak of Novel Coronavirus “Covid-19” as
a pandemic. Complying with the directives of Government, the plant, operating locations and offices of the Group
had been under lock-down for few months, resulting thereto, the operations for the year have been impacted.
Post lockdown, the Group has gradually resumed its manufacturing operations to normal with limited workforce
and disrupted supply chain. However, the recent second wave of Covid-19 has resulted in re-imposition of partial
lockdowns/restrictions in various states, which might continue to impact the Group’s performance.
The Group has taken into account all the possible impacts of COVID-19 including the possible impacts of second
wave in preparation of these consolidated financial statements, including but not limited to its assessment of
liquidity and going concern assumption, recoverable values of its financial and non-financial assets, impact on
revenue and cost, investments, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. The Group has carried out
this assessment based on available internal and external sources of information upto the date of approval of these
consolidated financial statements and believes that the impact of COVID-19 is not material to these consolidated
financial statements and expects to recover the carrying amount of its assets. The impact of COVID-19 on the
consolidated financial statements may differ from that estimated as at the date of approval of these consolidated
financial statements owing to the nature and duration of COVID-19.

53 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group’s capital management objectives are
- to ensure the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern
- to provide an adequate return to shareholders
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the carrying amount of equity less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the
face of balance sheet.
Management assesses the Group’s capital requirements in order to maintain an efficient overall financing structure while
avoiding excessive leverage. This takes into account the subordination levels of the Group’s various classes of debt. The
Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk
characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount
of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares, or sell assets to reduce debt.

b. Consideration transferred
The acquisition of INR 2,450.00 lakh was settled in cash. There were no legal costs incurred upon acquisition by the
Company.
c. Measurement of fair value of identifiable net assets
The valuation model for fair valuation of property, plant and equipment considers quoted market prices for similar
items when available, and depreciated replacement cost when appropriate. Depreciated replacement cost reflects
adjustments for physical deterioration as well as functional and economic obsolescence.
Intangible assets are fair valued based on the relief-from-royalty method and multi-period excess earnings
methods. The relief-from-royalty method considers the discounted estimated royalty payments that are expected to
be avoided as a result of the technical knowhow being owned. The multi-period excess earnings method considers
the present value of net cash flows expected to be generated by the customer relationships, by excluding any cash
flows related to contributory assets.
Raw materials are fair valued using the replacement cost method of the cost approach. Finished goods and work-in-
progress are valued using the comparative sales method of the market approach which uses the actual or expected
selling prices of finished goods as the base amount.
The fair value of the trade and other receivables acquired as part of the business combination amounted to INR
1,814.67 lakh, with a gross contractual amount of INR 1,814.67 lakh. As of the acquisition date, the Group’s best

55 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS


Indian Accounting Standard 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Ind AS 115”), establishes a framework for
determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised and requires disclosures about the nature, amount, timing
and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from customer contracts. Under Ind AS 115, revenue is recognised through
a 5-step approach:
(i) Identify the contract(s) with customer;
(ii) Identify separate performance obligations in the contract;
(iii) Determine the transaction price;
(iv) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and
(v) Recognise revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

to FY 2020-21, which was largely impacted owing to COVID-19 pandemic.
(iv) The increase in ratio is attributable to the reason that there was negligible income from perpetual bonds in FY 2020-21
