3.15 Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Companyhas a present obligation (legal or constructive)as a result of a past event, it is probable that theCompany will be required to settle the obligation,and a reliable estimate can be made of the amountof the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is thebest estimate of the consideration required tosettle the present obligation at the end of thereporting period, taking into account the risksand uncertainties surrounding the obligation.When a provision is measured using the cashflows estimated to settle the present obligation,its carrying amount is the present value of thosecash flows (when the effect of the time value ofmoney is material).
Warranties
The estimated liability for product warranties isrecorded when products are sold. These estimatesare established using historical information on thenature, frequency and average cost of warrantyclaims and management estimates regardingpossible future incidence based on correctiveactions on product failures. The timing of outflowswill vary as and when warranty claim will arise.
The initial estimate of warranty-related costs isrevised annually.
Onerous contracts
An onerous contract is a contract under whichthe unavoidable costs (i.e., the costs that theCompany cannot avoid because it has thecontract) of meeting the obligations under thecontract exceed the economic benefits expectedto be received under it. The unavoidable costsunder a contract reflect the least net cost ofexiting from the contract, which is the lower ofthe cost of fulfilling it and any compensation orpenalties arising from failure to fulfil it. The cost offulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relatedirectly to the contract (i.e., both incrementalcosts and an allocation of costs directly relatedto contract activities). If the Company has acontract that is onerous, the present obligationunder the contract is recognised and measuredas a provision.
Contingent liabilities
A disclosure for a contingent liability is madewhen there is a possible obligation or a presentobligation that may, but probably will not, requirean outflow of resources. When the likelihood ofoutflow of resources is remote, no provision ordisclosure is made.
Provisions, contingent liabilities are reviewed ateach Balance Sheet date.
3.16 Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract thatgives rise to a financial asset of one entityand a financial liability or equity instrument ofanother entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities arerecognised when the Company becomes a party tothe contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities areclassified, at initial recognition, and subsequentlymeasured at amortised cost, fair value throughother comprehensive income (OCI), and fair valuethrough profit or loss except Trade receivablesthat do not contain a significant financingcomponent or for which the Company has appliedthe practical expedient are measured at thetransaction price determined under Ind AS 115.Transaction costs that are directly attributableto the acquisition or issue of financial assets andfinancial liabilities (other than financial assets andfinancial liabilities at fair value through profit orloss) are added to or deducted from the fair valueof the financial assets or financial liabilities, asappropriate, on initial recognition. Transactioncosts directly attributable to the acquisition offinancial assets or financial liabilities at fair valuethrough profit or loss are recognised immediatelyin profit or loss.
3.17 Financial assets
All recognised financial assets are subsequentlymeasured in their entirety at either amortised costor fair value through profit and loss or fair valuethrough other comprehensive income, dependingon the classification of the financial assets.
Classification and Measurement offinancial assets
Debt instruments that meet the followingconditions are subsequently measured atamortised cost (except for debt instruments thatare designated at fair value through profit or losson initial recognition):
• the asset is held within a business modelwhose objective is to hold assets in order tocollect contractual cash flows; and
• the contractual terms of the instrument giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest(SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
Debt instruments that meet the followingconditions are subsequently measured at fairvalue through other comprehensive income("FVTOCI") (except for debt instruments that aredesignated at fair value through profit or loss oninitial recognition):
• the asset is held within a business modelwhose objective is achieved both bycollecting contractual cash flows and sellingfinancial assets; and
• the contractual terms of the instrument giverise on specified dates to cash flows that aresolely payments of principal and interest onthe principal amount outstanding.
Interest income and impairment losses orreversals are recognised in the profit or loss andcomputed in the same manner as for financialassets measured at amortised cost. The remainingfair value changes are recognised in OCI. Uponde-recognition, the cumulative fair value changesrecognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity toprofit or loss.
All other financial assets are subsequentlymeasured at fair value through profit or loss.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a methodof calculating the amortised cost of a debtinstrument and of allocating interest incomeover the relevant period. The effective interestrate is the rate that exactly discounts estimatedfuture cash receipts (including all fees and pointspaid or received that form an integral part of theeffective interest rate, transaction costs and otherpremiums or discounts) through the expectedlife of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate,a shorter period, to the net carrying amount oninitial recognition.
Income is recognised on an effective interest basisfor debt instruments other than those financialassets classified at FVTPL. Interest income isrecognised in profit or loss and is included in the"Other income" line item.
Financial assets at fair value through profitor loss (FVTPL)
Investments in equity instruments are classified atFVTPL, unless the Company irrevocably elects oninitial recognition to present subsequent changesin fair value in other comprehensive income forinvestments in equity instruments which are notheld for trading.
Debt instruments that do not meet the amortisedcost criteria or FVTOCI criteria are measured at
FVTPL. In addition, debt instruments that meet theamortised cost criteria or the FVTOCI criteria butare designated at FVTPL are measured at FVTPL.
A financial asset that meets the amortised costcriteria or debt instruments that meet the FVTOCIcriteria may be designated at FVTPL uponinitial recognition if such designation eliminatesor significantly reduces a measurement orrecognition inconsistency that would arise frommeasuring assets or liabilities or recognising thegains and losses on them on different bases.
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fairvalue at the end of each reporting period, withany gains or losses arising on re-measurementrecognised in profit or loss. The net gain or lossrecognised in profit or loss incorporates anydividend or interest earned on the financialasset and is included in the 'Other income' lineitem. Dividend on financial assets at FVTPL isrecognised when the Company's right to receivethe dividends is established, it is probable thatthe economic benefits associated with thedividend will flow to the entity, the dividend doesnot represent a recovery of part of cost of theinvestment and the amount of dividend can bemeasured reliably.
Financial assets designated at fair valuethrough OCI (equity instruments)
Upon initial recognition, the Company can electto classify irrevocably its equity investmentsas equity instruments designated at fair valuethrough OCI when they meet the definition ofequity under Ind AS 32 Financial Instruments:Presentation and are not held for trading. Theclassification is determined on an instrument-by¬instrument basis.
Gains and losses on these financial assets arenever recycled to profit or loss. Dividends arerecognised as other income in the statement ofprofit and loss when the right of payment has beenestablished, except when the Company benefitsfrom such proceeds as a recovery of part of thecost of the financial asset, in which case, suchgains are recorded in OCI. Equity instrumentsdesignated at fair value through OCI are notsubject to impairment assessment.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company applies the expected creditloss model for recognising impairment loss onfinancial assets measured at amortised cost,debt instruments at FVTOCI, trade receivables,other contractual rights to receive cash or otherfinancial asset, and financial guarantees notdesignated at FVTPL.
The Company measures the loss allowance fora financial instrument at an amount equal tothe lifetime expected credit losses if the creditrisk on that financial instrument has increasedsignificantly since initial recognition.
Further, for the purpose of measuring lifetimeexpected credit loss allowance for tradereceivables, the Company has used a practicalexpedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. Thisexpected credit loss allowance is computedbased on historical credit loss experience andadjustments for forward looking information.
Derecognition of financial assets
The Company de-recognises a financial assetwhen the contractual rights to the cash flows fromthe asset expire, or when it transfers the financialasset and substantially all the risks and rewards ofownership of the asset to another party.
3.18 Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Classification as financial liability or equity
Debt and equity instruments issued by Companyare classified as either financial liabilities or asequity in accordance with the substance of thecontractual arrangements and the definitions of afinancial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract thatevidences a residual interest in the assets of anentity after deducting all of its liabilities.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit orloss include financial liabilities held for tradingand financial liabilities designated upon initialrecognition as at fair value through profit orloss. Financial liabilities are classified as held fortrading if they are incurred for the purpose ofrepurchasing in the near term.
Gains or losses on liabilities held for trading arerecognised in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities designated upon initialrecognition at fair value through profit or lossare designated as such at the initial date ofrecognition, and only if the criteria in Ind AS 109are satisfied. For liabilities designated as FVTPL,fair value gains / losses attributable to changesin own credit risk are recognized in the othercomprehensive income. These gains/ loss are notsubsequently transferred to P&L. However, theCompany may transfer the cumulative gain orloss within equity. All other changes in fair valueof such liability are recognised in the statement ofprofit or loss.
The carrying amounts of financial liabilities thatare subsequently measured at amortised costare determined based on the effective interestmethod. Interest expense that is not capitalised aspart of cost of an asset is included in the 'Financecosts' line item.
The effective interest method is a method ofcalculating the amortised cost of a financialliability and of allocating interest expense overthe relevant period. The effective interest rate isthe rate that exactly discounts estimated futurecash payments (including all fees and pointspaid or received that form an integral part of theeffective interest rate, transaction costs and otherpremiums or discounts) through the expected lifeof the financial liability.
All financial liabilities are subsequently measuredat amortised cost using the effective interestmethod or at FVTPL.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Company de-recognises financial liabilitieswhen, and only when, the Company's obligationsare discharged, cancelled or have expired.
Reclassification of financial assetsand liabilities
The Company determines classification offinancial assets and liabilities on initial recognition.After initial recognition, no reclassification is madefor financial assets which are equity instrumentsand financial liabilities. For financial assets whichare debt instruments, a reclassification is made
only if there is a change in the business modelfor managing those assets. Changes to thebusiness model are expected to be infrequent.
The Company's senior management determineschange in the business model as a result ofexternal or internal changes which are significantto the Company's operations.
3.19 Derivative Instruments
Initial recognition andsubsequent measurement
The Company uses derivative financialinstruments, such as forward currency contractsto hedge its foreign currency risks. Such derivativefinancial instruments are initially recognised at fairvalue on the date on which a derivative contractis entered into and are subsequently re-measuredat fair value. Derivatives are carried as financialassets when the fair value is positive and asfinancial liabilities when the fair value is negative.Any gains or losses arising from changes in thefair value of derivatives are taken directly to profitor loss, except for the effective portion of cashflow hedges, which is recognised in OCI and laterreclassified to profit or loss when the hedge itemaffects profit or loss or treated as basis adjustmentif a hedged forecast transaction subsequentlyresults in the recognition of a non-financial assetor non-financial liability.
3.20 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent in the balance sheetcomprise cash at banks and on hand and short¬term deposits with an original maturity of threemonths or less, that are readily convertible to aknown amount of cash and which are subject to aninsignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the standalone statement ofcash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist ofcash and short-term deposits, as defined above,net of outstanding bank overdrafts as they areconsidered an integral part of the Company'scash management.
3.21 Dividend
The Company recognises a liability to makedividend distributions to equity holders of theCompany when the distribution is authorised andthe distribution is no longer at the discretion ofthe Company. As per the corporate laws in Indiaa distribution is authorised when it is approved bythe shareholders, However, Board of Directors ofa Company may declare interim dividend duringany financial year out of the surplus in statementof profit and loss and out of the profits of thefinancial year in which such interim dividend issought to be declared. A corresponding amount isrecognised directly in other equity.
3.22 Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed bydividing the profit after tax by the weightedaverage number of equity shares outstandingduring the year.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividingthe profit after tax as adjusted for dividend,interest and other charges to expense or incomerelating to the dilutive potential equity shares, bythe weighted average number of equity sharesconsidered for deriving basic earnings per shareand the weighted average number of equity shareswhich could have been issued on the conversion ofall dilutive potential equity shares.
3.23 Investment in subsidiariesand joint ventures
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled byanother entity. An associate is an entity overwhich the Company has significant influence.Significant influence is the power to participatein the financial and operating policy decisions ofthe investee but is not control or joint control overthose policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangementwhereby the parties that have joint control of thearrangement have rights to the net assets of thejoint venture. Joint control is the contractuallyagreed sharing of control of an arrangement,which exists only when decisions about therelevant activities require unanimous consent ofthe parties sharing control.
The Company's investments in its subsidiariesand joint ventures are accounted at costless impairment.
Impairment of investments
The Company reviews its carrying value ofinvestments carried at cost annually, or morefrequently when there is indication for impairment.If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying
amount, the impairment loss is recorded in theStatement of Profit and Loss.
When an impairment loss subsequentlyreverses, the carrying amount of the Investmentis increased to the revised estimate of itsrecoverable amount, so that the increasedcarrying amount does not exceed the cost ofthe Investment. A reversal of an impairmentloss is recognised immediately in Statement ofProfit or Loss.
3.24 Events after the reporting period
If the Company receives information after thereporting period, but prior to the date of approvedfor issue, about conditions that existed at theend of the reporting period, it will assess whetherthe information affects the amounts that itrecognises in its standalone financial statements.The Company will adjust the amounts recognisedin its financial statements to reflect any adjustingevents after the reporting period and update thedisclosures that relate to those conditions in lightof the new information. For non-adjusting eventsafter the reporting period, the Company will notchange the amounts recognised in its standalonefinancial statements, but will disclose the natureof the non-adjusting event and an estimate ofits financial effect, or a statement that such anestimate cannot be made, if applicable.
3.25 New and amended standards
The Company applied for the first-time certainstandards and amendments, which are effectivefor annual periods beginning on or after April 1,2025. The Company has not early adopted anystandard, interpretation or amendment that hasbeen issued but is not yet effective.
(i) Amendments to Ind AS 21 - Lack ofexchangeability
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA)notified the Companies (Indian AccountingStandards) Amendment Rules, 2025, whichamend Ind AS 21, The Effects of Changes inForeign Exchange Rates to specify how anentity should assess whether a currency isexchangeable and how it should determinea spot exchange rate when exchangeabilityis lacking. The amendments also requiredisclosure of information that enables users
of its financial statements to understand howthe currency not being exchangeable intothe other currency affects, or is expected toaffect, the entity's financial performance,financial position and cash flows. Theamendments are effective for annualreporting periods beginning on or after April1, 2025. When applying the amendments,an entity cannot restate comparativeinformation. The amendments do nothave a material impact on the Company'sfinancial statements.
(ii) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification ofLiabilities as Current or Non-current andNon-current Liabilities with Covenants
In August 2025, the MCA notifiedamendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 ofInd AS 1 to specify the requirements forclassifying liabilities as current or non¬current. The amendments clarify:
• What is meant by a right todefer settlement
• That a right to defer must exist at theend of the reporting period
• That classification is unaffected by thelikelihood that an entity will exerciseits deferral right
• That only if an embedded derivative ina convertible liability is itself an equityinstrument would the terms of a liabilitynot impact its classification
In addition, a requirement has beenintroduced to require disclosure when aliability arising from a loan agreement isclassified as non-current and the entity'sright to defer settlement is contingenton compliance with future covenantswithin twelve months.
If there is a breach of a material covenant ofa long term loan arrangement on or beforethe end of the reporting period, resulting inthe liability becoming payable on demandas at the reporting date, and the lenderagrees—after the reporting period butbefore the financial statements are approved
for issue—not to demand repayment for atleast 12 months as a consequence of thebreach, this shall be treated as an adjustingevent. Accordingly, the entity is not requiredto classify the liability as current.
The amendments are effective forannual reporting periods beginning onor after April 1, 2025 retrospectively inaccordance with Ind AS 8.
(iii) Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 -Supplier Finance Arrangements
In August 2025, the MCA notifiedamendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of CashFlows and Ind AS 107 Financial Instruments:Disclosures to clarify the characteristics ofsupplier finance arrangements and requireadditional disclosure of such arrangements.The disclosure requirements in theamendments are intended to assist users offinancial statements in understanding theeffects of supplier finance arrangements onan entity's liabilities, cash flows and exposureto liquidity risk.
The amendments do not have amaterial impact on the Company'sfinancial statements since the Companyhas not entered into any supplierfinance arrangements.
(iv) International Tax Reform—Pillar TwoModel Rules - Amendments to Ind AS 12
In August 2025, the MCA notifiedamendments to Ind AS 12 Income Taxesin response to the OECD's BEPS Pillar Tworules and include:
• A mandatory temporary exceptionto the recognition and disclosureof deferred taxes arising from thejurisdictional implementation of thePillar Two model rules; and
• Disclosure requirements for affectedentities to help users of the financialstatements better understand anentity's exposure to Pillar Two incometaxes arising from that legislation,particularly before its effective date.
The mandatory temporary exception - theuse of which is required to be disclosed- applies immediately. The remainingdisclosure requirements apply for annualreporting periods beginning on or after April1, 2025, but not for any interim periodsending on or before March 31, 2026.
The amendments had no impact on theCompany's consolidated financial statementsas the Company is not in scope of the PillarTwo model rules.

Provision for warranty claims represents the present value of the management's best estimate of the future economic costs thatwill be required under the Company's obligations for warranties. The estimate has been made on the basis of historical warrantytrends and may vary as a result of new materials, altered manufacturing processes or other events affecting product quality.
Provision for onerous contract represents management's best estimate of the costs that will be required under the Company'sobligations towards coupon based service contracts. This provision represents unavoidable costs under coupon based servicecontracts reflect the net cost of fulfilling the contract, which is the higher than the compensation arising from its fulfilment. Theestimate has been made on the basis of expected costs required to be incurred for fulfilment of a contract.
(i) The deferred revenue arises as a result of:
a) The benefit (Research and Development Expenditure Credit, supports entities that work on innovative projectsin science and technology) received/receivable towards intangible assets by the United Kingdom (UK) Branch ofthe Company from the Government of UK - Department for Business Innovation & Skills and Department for HisMajesty's Revenue & Customs (HMRC) of ' 111.28 crores as at March 31, 2026 (March 31, 2025: ' 71.03 crores)

On November 21, 2025, the Government of India notified four Labour Codes, consolidating 29 existing labour laws.Subsequently, the Ministry of Labour & Employment issued draft Rules and FAQs to facilitate assessment of the financialimplications arising from changes in the regulatory framework. Based on an assessment of the impact of these Codes, theCompany has provided for an amount of ' 55.45 crores, as an exceptional item of a non recurring nature for the year endedMarch 31, 2026. This assessment and the above provision in the accounts are based on information currently available & theFAQs on key accounting implications arising from the Labour Codes issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
Subsequent to the year-end, the Central Government has notified the Code on Wages (Central) Rules, 2026, however, thecorresponding State Rules and certain other operational clarifications under the New Labour Codes are yet to be notified. TheCompany continues to monitor the notification of the remaining State Rules and clarifications, the impact, if any, of these willbe accounted in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
39. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENT AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Company accounting policies, which are described in note 3, the management of the Company arerequired to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are notreadily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and otherfactors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates arerecognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revisionand future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The following are the areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements that the management has made in the processof applying the Company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in thefinancial statements:-
Recoverability of intangible assets and intangible assets under development
The Company has various internally generated intangible assets either capitalised or under development. Initial recognition ofthe expenditure under these assets are based on assessing each asset in relation to the specific recognition criteria to be metfor capitalisation, for e.g. technological and economic feasibility and the ability of the asset to generate economic benefits inthe future. In addition, the management also assesses any indicators of impairment of the carrying value of the assets. Thisrequires the management's judgement and assumptions, which are affected by future market or economic developments. Themanagement has analysed the recognition criteria and future market conditions and is confident that these assets do notrequire any adjustments to their carrying value at the year end. (Refer note 3.12 and 7)
Useful lives of depreciable assets
Management reviews the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date. As at March 31, 2026 managementassessed that the useful lives represent the expected utility of the assets to the Company. Further, there is no significantchange in the useful lives as compared to previous year. (Refer note 3.11, 3.12, 4 and 6)
Share-based payments
Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuationmodel, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the mostappropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield andmaking assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based paymenttransactions are disclosed in Note 3.9 and 49.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is thehigher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based onavailable data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm's length, for similar assets or observable market pricesless incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model.
(Refer note 3.13)
Equity investments designated at FVTOCI
Equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI include investments in equity shares of Stark Future S.L., for anon-controlling interests of 9.99% (undiluted basis) as at March 31, 2026 (March 31, 2025: 10.88% (undiluted basis)). Thisinvestment was irrevocably designated at initial recognition as fair value through OCI considering it to be strategic in nature.(Refer note 3.17 and 10)
During the year ended March 31, 2026, the Company has recognized changes in fair value, including foreign exchangegains / (losses) on reinstatement, in respect of its investment in equity instruments carried at Fair value through Othercomprehensive income.
40. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS:
Research and development costs incurred during the year ended March 31, 2026 that are capitalized, aggregates to ' 567.95crores (March 31, 2025: ' 463.08 crores). Research and development costs that are not eligible for capitalization havebeen expensed during the year ended March 31, 2026 of ' 186.74 crores (March 31, 2025: ' 149.64 crores), and they arerecognized in other expenses.
All the above matters other than guarantee given by the Company are subject to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Thelegal proceeding when ultimately concluded will not, in the opinion of management, have a material effect on the result of operations or thefinancial position of the Company.
*These are consumer related cases, based on management's evaluation and advised by the Company's legal counsels that those are onlypossible, but not probable, that the action will succeed. Accordingly, no provision for any liability has been made in these financial statements.
The most recent actuarial valuation of the plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried outas at March 31, 2026 by Mr. K.K.Dharni (FIAI M.No. 00051), Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries of India. The present value ofthe defined benefit obligation, and the related current service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.
Gratuity :
The gratuity plan is governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 or the Code of Social Security, 2020. Under the act,employee who has completed five years of service is entitled to specific benefit. The level of benefits provided dependson the member's length of service and salary at retirement age. The fund has the form of a trust and it is governed by theBoard of Trustees.
Each year, the Board of Trustees reviews the level of funding in the gratuity plan. Such a review includes the asset-liabilitymatching strategy and investment risk management policy. This includes employing the use of annuities and longevity swapsto manage the risks. Generally, it aims to have a portfolio mix of equity instruments, and debt instruments. Generally, equityinstruments should not exceed 15% of total portfolio. The Board of Trustees aim to keep annual contributions relatively stableat a level such that no plan deficits (based on valuation performed) will arise.
As the plan assets include significant investments in quoted equity shares of entities, the Company is also exposed to equitymarket risk to the extent of the proportionate investment made.
The fair values of the above instruments are determined based on quoted market prices in active market. The actual return onplan assets was ' 10.30 crores for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Significant actuarial assumptions for the determination of the defined obligation are discount rate, expected salary increaseand mortality. The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on reasonable possible changes of the respectiveassumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
Gratuity funded
• If the discount rate is 50 basis points higher (lower), the defined benefit obligation would decrease by ' 8.17 crores(increase by ' 8.79 crores) [as at March 31, 2025: Decrease by ' 5.80 crores (increase by ' 6.31 crores)].
• If the expected salary growth increases (decreases) by 50 basis points, the defined benefit obligation would increase by' 4.69 crores (decrease by ' 4.73 crores) [as at March 31, 2025: Increase by ' 5.97 crores (decrease by ' 5.57 crores)].
Gratuity unfunded
• If the discount rate is 50 basis points higher (lower), the defined benefit obligation would decrease by ' 0.88 crores(increase by ' 0.96 crores) [as at March 31, 2025: decrease by ' 0.82 crores (increase by ' 0.90 crores)].
• If the expected salary growth increases (decreases) by 50 basis points, the defined benefit obligation would increase by' 0.78 crores (decrease by ' 0.75 crores) [as at March 31, 2025: increase by ' 0.74 crores (decrease by ' 0.71 crores)].
Sensitivities due to change in mortality rate and change in withdrawal rate are not material and hence impact of such change isnot calculated.
Sensitivity Analysis
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligationas it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptionsmay be correlated.
Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligation has beencalculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of reporting period, which is same as that applied in calculatingthe defined benefit obligation liability recognized in the balance sheet.
The changes to principal assumptions on future salary increase and rate of withdrawal have been made to reflect theCompany's trend of actual average salary increase and average attrition rates over the past years.
Provident fund :
The Company operates a scheme of provident fund for eligible employees, which is a defined benefit plan. Both the employee andthe Company make monthly contributions to the provident fund plan equal to a specified percentage of the covered employee'ssalary. The Company contributes a part of the contributions to the "Eicher Executive Provident Fund Trust". The rate at whichthe annual interest is payable to the beneficiaries by the trust is being administered by the Government. The Company has anobligation to make good the shortfall, if any, between the return from the investments of the trust and the notified interest rate.
- If the discount rate is 50 basis points higher (lower), the defined benefit obligation would decrease by ' 0.05 crores (increaseby ' 0.05 crores)
45. SEGMENT REPORTING DISCLOSURE
The Company primarily operates in the automotive segment. The automotive segment includes all activities related todevelopment, design, manufacture, assembly and sale of two-wheelers as well as sale of related parts and accessories.

47.3 Fair value measurements
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and/or disclosing the fair value of financial instruments byvaluation techniques:
The following is the basis of categorizing the financial instruments measured at fair value into Level 1 to Level 3 :-
Level 1: This level includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets foridentical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: This level includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).
Level 3: This level includes financial assets and liabilities measured using inputs that are not based on observable marketdata (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a valuation model based on assumptions thatare neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based onavailable market data.
* represents the investments in equity of Flamesun Solar Private Limited. As per the share purchase agreement between the Company andthese parties, in case of termination or as the case may be, the Company shall transfer the equity shares to the person nominated by eachparty (Nominated person) as may be prescribed and consideration to receive in this regard shall be the same amount as paid by the Companytowards purchase of these equity investments (cost of purchase).
# represents equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI include investments in equity shares of Stark Future S.L.,. for a non¬controlling interests of 9.99% (undiluted basis) as at March 31, 2026 (March 31, 2025: 10.88% (undiluted basis)). This investment wasirrevocably designated at initial recognition as fair value through OCI considering it to be strategic in nature.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount that would be received to sell an asset and paidto transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The following methods and assumptions were usedto estimate the fair values:
• Investments traded in active markets are determined by reference to quotes from the financial institutions; for example:Net asset value (NAV) for investments in mutual funds declared by mutual fund house.
• The fair value of bonds is based on quoted prices and market observable inputs.
• Trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, other bank balances, loans, other current financial assets, currentborrowings, trade payables and other current financial liabilities: Approximate their carrying amounts largely due to theshort-term maturities of these instruments.
• Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherentlimitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimatespresented above are not necessarily indicative of all the amounts that the Company could have realized or paid in saletransactions as of respective dates. As such, the fair value of the financial instruments subsequent to the respectivereporting dates may be different from the amounts reported at each year end.
• There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the year and the previous year.
48. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Company's management monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Company. These risksinclude market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The management reviews cash resources, implements strategies for foreign currency exposures and ensuring market risklimit and policies.
The Company does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, forspeculative purposes.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realizable fair values or in future cash flows that may result from a changein the price of a financial instrument. The Company's activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreigncurrency exchange rates and interest rates risk/ liquidity risk which impact returns on investments. Market risk exposures aremeasured using sensitivity analysis.
Foreign currency risk management
The Company undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies; consequently, exposures to exchange ratefluctuations arise. The carrying amounts of the Company's foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetaryliabilities at the end of the reporting period are as follows:
Foreign currency sensitivity
The company uses the sensitivity rate of 5% when reporting foreign currency risk internally to key management personnel andrepresents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysisincludes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end fora 5% change in foreign currency rates. In the opinion of the management, the sensitivity of increase or decrease of ' 61.93crores (March 31, 2025: ' 47.17 crores) against the relevant foreign currencies is not material to the financial statements.
Equity price risk
The Company's listed and non-listed equity securities are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties aboutfuture values of the investment securities. The Company manages the equity price risk through diversification and by placinglimits on individual and total equity instruments. Reports on the equity portfolio are submitted to the Company's seniormanagement on a regular basis.
Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial lossto the Company.
Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk, principally consist of balance with banks, investmentsin debt instruments/ bonds, trade receivables, loans and advances. None of the financial instruments of the Company result inmaterial concentrations of credit risks.
Balances with banks were not past due or impaired as at the year end. In other financial assets that are not past dues and notimpaired, there were no indication of default in repayment as at the year end.
The Company has used a practical expedient by computing the expected loss allowance for financial assets based on historicalcredit loss experience and adjustments for forward looking information.
Other price risks
The Company has deployed its surplus funds into various financial instruments including units of mutual funds, bonds, etc.The Company is exposed to NAV (net asset value) price risks arising from investments in these funds. The value of theseinvestments is impacted by movements in interest rates, liquidity and credit quality of underlying securities.
NAV price sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis below have been determined based on the exposure to NAV price risks at the end of the reportingperiod. If NAV prices had been 1% higher/lower, the profit for the year ended March 31, 2026 would increase/decrease by' 120.23 crores (for the year ended March 31, 2025: increase/decrease by ' 112.41 crores).
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 changesin market interest rate. Since the Company's borrowings which are affected by interest rate fluctuation is very insignificantto the size and operations of the Company, therefore, a change in interest rate risk does not have a material impact on theCompany's financial statements in relation to fair value of financial instruments.
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, bycontinuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
Maturity profile of financial liabilities:
The table below provides details regarding the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities at the reporting date.
