Warranty provisions are determined based on the historical percentage of warranty expense to sales for the same types of goods for which the warranty is currently being determined. The same percentage to the sales is applied for the current accounting period to derive the warranty expense to be accrued. The warranty claims may not exactly match the historical warranty percentage, so such estimates are reviewed quarterly for any material changes in assumptions and likelihood of occurrence. The assumptions are consistent with prior years.

NOTE 34: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
A) Defined Benefit Plan- Gratuity (Funded)
The employees’ Gratuity Fund Scheme, is a defined benefit plan. The scheme is maintained and administered by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) to which the Company makes periodical contributions. Under the said scheme, every employee who has completed at least five years of service usually gets gratuity on departure @ 15 days of last drawn salary for each completed year of service. The present value of obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation using the Projected Unit Credit Method.
i) The average duration of the defined benefit plan obligation at the end of the reporting year is 6.35 years (PY 6.99 years).
ii) The estimates of rate of escalation in salaries considered in actuarial valuation, takes into account inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors including supply and demand in the employment market. The above information is certified by the actuary.
iii) Discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian Government securities as at the balance sheet date for the estimated term of the obligations.
iv) The sensitivity analysis above have been determined based on a method that extrapolates the impact on defined benefit obligation as a result of reasonable changes in key assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting year. The sensitivity analysis may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated. Furthermore, in presenting the above sensitivity analysis the present value of defined benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method.
(viii) The Company has purchased insurance policy, which is basically a year-on-year cash accumulation plan in which the interest rate is declared on yearly basis and is guaranteed for a period of one year. The insurance Company as part of the policy rules, makes payment of all gratuity outgoes happening during the year (subject to sufficiency of funds under the policy). The policy, thus, mitigates the liquidity risk. However, being a cash accumulation plan, the duration of assets is shorter compared to the duration of liabilities. Thus, the Company is exposed to movement in interest rate (in particular, the significant fall in interest rates, which should result in an increase in liability without corresponding increase in the asset)
(ix) On 21 November 2025, the Government of India notified four Labour Codes consolidating 29 existing labour laws. The Ministry of Labour and Employment has issued draft Central Rules and FAQs to facilitate assessment of the financial impact arising from these changes. Based on management’s assessment including actuarial valuation, considering the best information available and ICAI guidance, the Company has recognised an incremental liability of INR 1,901.05 Lakhs towards employee benefit obligation, primarily arising from the revised definition of wages under the New Labour Codes. Considering the event as regulatory-driven and nonrecurring in nature, the impact of the same has been disclosed under exceptional items in the standalone financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2026. The Company continues to monitor the notification of final Central/State rules and related clarifications and will evaluate and account for any additional impact in the period in which such rules are notified or clarifications issued.
Note 37.1 Investment are not held for trading. Upon the application of ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments, the Company has chosen to measure said investments in equity instrument at FVTOCi irrevocably as the management believes that presenting fair value gains and losses relating to the said investments in the statement of profit and loss may not be indicative of the performance of the Company.
Note 37.2 investment in joint venture amounting to iNR 1,637.31 Lakhs (PY iNR 1,637.31 Lakhs) are measured at cost in accordance with ind AS 27 requirements. since the same is scoped out of ind AS -109 for the purpose of measurment,the same have not been disclosed in tables above.
B) Fair Value Measurements
(i) All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy that categorises into three levels, described as follows:
Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) market prices in 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 or indirectly.
Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortised cost in the financial statements are reasonable approximation of their fair values since the Company does not anticipate that the carrying amount would be significantly different from the value that would eventually be received or settled.
Management uses its best judgement in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations in any estimation technigue. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented above are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could have realised or paid in sale transactions as of respective dates. As such, fair value of financial instruments subseguent to the reporting dates may be different from the amounts reported at each reporting date.
Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income - in unquoted equity shares:
Investments in eguity shares of MEW Electricals Limited(MEW) have been designated as FVOCI. Based on MEW’s future projections of 5 years, Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) valuation methodology has been used to determine the fair value as on 31 March 2026
Significant unobservable inputs
The free cash flows have been discounted using weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and cost of eguity which is based on the capital asset pricing model. The model considered data from comparable companies to obtain the discounted free cash flows based on latest available data prior to date of valuation. These assumptions have been adjusted appropriately at each reporting date. Key assumptions have been summarised below:

The policy provide broad guidelines to identify the risk arising from these factors and provide guidelines to the team for its mitigation or at-least minimise its effect on income/ expense of the Company. Team involved in RMP meets frequently to discuss the level of risk they foresee based on the conditions persisting.
The Company's exposure to Market Risk, Liquidity Risk and Credit Risk have been summarised below:
Market Risk:-Interest Rate Risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on short-term and long-term floating rate interest bearing liabilities. The Company's policy is to maintain a balance of fixed and floating interest rate borrowings and the proportion of fixed and floating rate debt is determined by prevailing interest rates. These exposures are reviewed by the management on a periodic basis.
(Calculated based on risk exposure outstanding as of date and assuming that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant).
Foreign Currency Risk:
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates where transaction references more than one currency and/or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company.
Exposures on foreign currency are managed through a hedging policy, which is reviewed periodically by the management. The Company usually enters into forward exchange contracts progressively based on their maturity to hedge the effects of movements in foreign currency exchange rates individually on assets and liabilities. The sources of foreign exchange risk for the Company are trade receivables, trade payables for imported materials and capital goods as well as foreign currency denominated borrowings. The policy of the Company is to determine on a regular basis what portion of the foreign exchange risk are to be hedged through forward exchange contracts.
The Company uses forward contracts to mitigate the risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. The Company does not enter into any forward contracts which are intended for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company is exposed to the movement of copper and aluminium prices on the London Metal Exchange (LME). Any increase or decline in the prices of these commodities will have an impact on the profitability of the Company. As a general policy, the Company aims to purchase these commodities at prevailing market prices and also sell the products at price adjusted for prevailing market prices. The Company substantially ensures sale of products with simultaneous purchase of these commodities on back-to back basis ensuring no or minimum price risk for the Company.
Equity Price Risk
Equity price risk relates to change in fair value of investments in the equity instruments measured at fair value through OCI. As at 31 March, 2026 the carrying value of such equity instruments recognised at fair value through OCI amounts to INR 17,668.60 Lakhs (P.Y. INR 16,572.78 Lakhs). The price risk arises due to uncertainties about the future market values of these investments and the same is classified in the balance sheet as fair value through OCI.
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company encounter difficulty in raising fund to meet its financial commitments. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain the liquidity and to ensure that funds are available for short operational needs and to fund Company's expansion projects. The Company has availed credit facility from the banks & financial institutions to meet its financial commitment in timely and cost effective manner.
The Company remains committed to maintaining a healthy liquidity and gearing ratio and strengthening the balance sheet. The maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities including interest based on the remaining year from the date of balance sheet to the contractual maturity date is given in the table below.

The Company assess the counter party before entering into transactions and wherever necessary supplies are made against advance payment. The Company on continuous basis monitor the credit limit of the counter parties to mitigate or minimise the credit risk. The credit risk on export receivables are limited as almost all export sales are made to parties having a long vintage with the Company and new parties are subject to necessary due diligence.
Trade receivables
An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date based on the facts and circumstances existing on that date to identify expected losses on account of time value of money and credit risk. For the purposes of this analysis, the receivables are categorised into groups based on types of receivables. Each group is then assessed for impairment using the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model as per the provisions of ind AS 109 - Financial instruments. The calculation is based on provision matrix which considers actual historical data adjusted appropriately for the future expectations and probabilities. Receivables from group companies and secured receivables are excluded for the purposes of this analysis since no credit risk is perceived on them. Proportion of expected credit loss provided for across the ageing buckets is summarised below:
