Note:

Expected Credit Loss (ECL):

The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The average credit period is between 60-90 days. Before accepting any new customer, the Company uses an internal credit scoring system to assess the potential customer's credit quality and defines credit limits for each customer. Limits and scoring attributed to customers are reviewed once a year.

As a practical expedient (Ind AS 109 B5.5.35), the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss of its trade receivables. The provision matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward looking estimates. Accordingly, the Company creates provision for past due receivables less than 270 days ranging between l%-30% and 100% for the receivables due beyond 270 days. The ECL allowance (or reversal) during the year is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

32. Financial Instruments 32.1 Capital management

The Company manages its capital to ensure that it maximises the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the capital structure. The Company monitors the return on capital. In order to optimise the Company's position with regards to its borrowings, interest income and interest expense, treasury team performs a comprehensive corporate interest risk management by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.

No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the years ended 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2022

The management assessed that fair value of cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances, trade receivables, other financial assets, loans and deposits, trade payables, and other current financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments, and hence these are carried at amortised cost. Carrying value of unquoted instruments, loans from banks, other non-current financial assets and non-current financial liabilities represents fair value which is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently available for debt on similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities.

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.

Investments in other equity instruments (unquoted) are measured at fair value through initial designation in accordance with Ind-AS 109.

32.1.3 Fair value hierarchy Valuation technique and key inputs

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)

32.2 Financial risk management Financial risk factors

The Company's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The primary market risk to the Company is foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristic of each customer. The liquidity risk is measured by the Company's inability to meet its financial obligations as they become due.

Foreign exchange risk

The Company operates internationally and a major portion of the business is transacted in several currencies and consequently the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its sales and services and purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. The exchange rate between the rupee and foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. Consequently, the results of the Company's operations are adversely affected as the rupee appreciates/ depreciates against these currencies. The Company monitors and manages its financial risks by analysing its foreign exchange exposures.

Sensitivity analysis:

Every 5% increase / decrease of the respective foreign currencies compared to functional currency of the Company would impact profit before tax by ^ 18.82 for the year ended March 31, 2023 and T 29.25 for the year ended March 31, 2022 Interest Risk

There is no material interest risk relating to the Company's financial liabilities which are detailed in note 14 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 its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful debts and impairment that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of trade receivables.

The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the Company's reputation. The Company assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be low.
