24. Provisions, Contingent liabilities and Capital Commitments
Provisions are recognized when there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) asa result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economicbenefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can bemade of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each balance sheetdate and are adjusted to reflect the current best estimate.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a currentpre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Whendiscounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized asa finance cost.
Contingent liabilities are possible obligations whose existence will only be confirmed byfuture events not wholly within the control of the Company, or present obligations where it isnot probable that an outflow of resources will be required, or the amount of the obligationcannot be measured with sufficient reliability. Information on contingent liability isdisclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements.

(ii) Categories of financial instrumentsCalculation of fair values
The fair values of financial assets and liabilities are defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfera liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following methods andassumptions were used to estimate the fair values of financial instruments.
a) The fair values of investment in quoted investment in equity shares is based on the current bid price of respective investmentas of the Balance Sheet date. However, there is no such investment as of the balance sheet date.
b) The fair value of bank borrowings carrying floating rate of interest is not impacted due to interest rate changes and will not besignificantly different from their carrying amounts as there is no significant change in the under-lying credit risk of the Company(since the date of inception of the loans).
c) Cash and Cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables, and other financial liabilities have fairvalues that approximate to their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature.
Fair value measurements recognized in the balance sheet:
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value,grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.
- Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets orliabilities.
- Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that areobservable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
- Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability thatare not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
(iii) Financial risk management objectives:
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise loans from banks, financial institutions, and trade payables. The mainpurpose of these financial liabilities is to raise finance for the Company's operations. The Company has various financial assetssuch as trade receivables, cash and short-term deposits, which arise directly from its operations.
The main risk arising from the Company's financial instruments are foreign currency risk, credit risk, market risk, interest rate riskand liquidity risk. The Board of Directors reviews and policies for managing each of these risks.
(a) Credit risk:
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet itscontractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents andother bank balances. The maximum exposure to credit risk in the case of all the financial instruments covered below isrestricted to their respective carrying amount.
Trade and other receivables
Customer credit is managed by each business unit subject to the Company's established policies, procedures and controlsrelating to customer credit risk management. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on 90 90-day creditterm. Credit limits are established for all customers based on internal rating criteria. Outstanding customer receivables areregularly monitored.
The Company measures the expected credit loss of trade receivables based on historical trends, industry practices and thebusiness environment in which the entity operates. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience and past trends.
Expected credit loss assessment for customers:
The company is making provisions on trade receivables based on Expected credit loss (ECL) model. The reconciliation of ECL is as follows:
Other Financial assets
The Company maintains exposure in cash and cash equivalents and term deposits with banks.
The Company held cash and cash equivalents of Rs. 23.85 Lacs on March 31, 2024 (March 31, 2023: Rs. 20.83 Lacs). Cash and cashequivalents are held with reputable and credit-worthy banks.
Individual risk limits are set for each counter-party based on the financial position, credit rating and past experience. Credit limitsand concentration or exposures are actively monitored by the management of the Company.
Other than trade and other receivables, the Company has no other financial assets that are past due but not impaired.
(b) Market risk:
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in marketprices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
(I) Foreign Currency Risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on account of its operating and financing activities. The functional currency of theCompany is Indian Rupee. The company's exposure is mainly denominated in USD on account of imports. The exchange rateshave changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future. The Company has put inplace a Financial Risk Management Policy to identify the most effective and efficient ways of managing currency risks. TheCompany uses derivative instruments (mainly foreign exchange forward contracts) to mitigate the risk of changes in foreigncurrency exchange rates.
The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
(II) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is measured by using the cash flow sensitivity for changes in variable interest rates. Any movement in thereference rates could have an impact on the Company's cash flows as well as costs. The Company also uses a mix of interestrate-sensitive financial instruments to manage the liquidity and fund requirements for its day-to-day operations like short-termloans.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
As at March 31, 2023, interest-bearing financial liability (secured loan from banks) stood at Rs. 1296.67 Lacs, and was subject tovariable interest rates. An increase/decrease of 50 basis points in interest rates at the balance sheet date would result in adecrease/increase in profit before tax of Rs. 6.48 lacs.
The risk estimates provided assume a parallel shift of 50 basis points in interest rate. This calculation also assumes that thechange occurs at the balance sheet date and has been calculated based on risk exposures outstanding as of that date. Theperiod-end balances are not necessarily representative of the average debt outstanding during the period.
This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.
The fair value of financial instruments:
All financial assets are initially recognized at the fair value of consideration paid. Subsequently, financial assets are carried atfair value or amortized cost less impairment. Where non-derivative financial assets are carried at fair value, gains and losses on
re-measurement are recognized directly in equity unless the financial assets have been designated as being held at fair valuethrough profit or loss, in which case the gains and losses are recognized directly in the statement of profit and loss. Financialassets are designated as being held at the fair value through profit or loss when it is necessary to reduce measurementinconsistency for related assets and liabilities. All financial liabilities other than derivatives are initially recognized at fair valueof consideration received net of transaction costs as appropriate (initial cost) and subsequently carried at amortized cost.
(III) Liquidity risk
The Company follows a Conservative policy of ensuring sufficient liquidity at all times through a strategy of profitable growth,efficient liquidity at all times through a strategy of profitable growth, efficient working capital management as well as prudentcapital expenditure. The Company has an overdraft facility with banks to support any temporary funding requirements.
The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents, tied-up borrowing lines and cash flow that is generated fromoperations is sufficient to meet requirements. Accordingly, liquidity risk is perceived to be low.
Liquidity table:
Liquidity tables are drawn up based on the cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Companycan be required to pay is disclosed in Note no. 47.
(IV) Other price risk
The Company is not exposed to any significant equity price risk arising from equity investments, as on 31st March 2024. Equityinvestments are held for strategic rather than trading purposes. The Company does not actively trade these investments.
(V) Equity price sensitivity analysis
