date is considered not probable. Contingent assets are not recognized in the accounts. 
xxii. Financial instruments 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. 
Financial assets and liabilities are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to financial assets and liabilities [other than financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL)] are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or liabilities, as appropriate on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to acquisition of financial assets or liabilities measured at FVTPL are recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss. 
1.    Non-derivative Financial assets: 
All regular purchases or sales of financial assets are recognised and derecognised on a trade date basis. Regular way purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in market place. 
2.    Impairment of financial assets 
The Company recognizes loss allowances using the expected credit loss (ECL) model for the financial assets which are not fair valued through profit or loss. Loss allowance for trade receivables with no significant financing component is measured at an amount equal to life time ECL. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-month ECL, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk from initial recognition in which case those are measured at lifetime ECL. The amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognised is recognized as an impairment gain or loss in the statement of profit and loss. 
3.    Foreign exchange gains and losses 
The fair value of financial assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of each reporting period. 
For foreign currency denominated financial assets measured at amortised cost and FVTPL, the exchange differences are recognised in statement of profit and loss except for those which are designated as hedging instruments in a hedging relationship. 
For the purposes of recognising foreign exchange gains and losses, FVTOCI debt instruments are treated as financial assets measured at amortised cost. Thus, the exchange differences on the amortised cost are recognised in the statement of profit and loss and other changes in the fair value of FVTOCI financial assets are recognised in other comprehensive income. 
Financial liabilities 
1.    Financial liabilities 
All financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method or at FVTPL. However, financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial asset does not qualify for de-recognition or when the continuing involvement approach applies, financial guarantee contracts issued by the Company, and commitments issued by the Company to provide a loan at below-market interest rate are measured in accordance with the specific accounting policies set out below. 
2.    Financial liabilities at FVTPL 
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognised in statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in statement of profit and loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the 'Other income/other expenses' line item. 
3.    Foreign exchange gains and losses 
For financial liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency and are measured at amortised cost at the end of each reporting period, the foreign exchange gains and losses are determined based on the amortised cost of the instruments and are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. 
The fair value of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the end of the reporting period. For financial liabilities that are measured as at FVTPL, the foreign exchange component forms part of the fair value gains or losses and is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

Company is in appeal before Commissioner of Appeals against said orders. This dispute arises on account of wrongful understanding of the Accounting of wastage in refining and melting process by the assessing officer. Though the facts are so obvious and consistently followed by the company and completed assessment in the earlier years as per similar submissions made. In the subsequent assessment order for FY 19-20 and FY 20-21, the Company on the same matter got the order without any addition by the assessing officers.

g.    The Company has received a demand notice under Section 156 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 amounting to ^7,017 lakhs for the Assessment Year 2021-22.

This exchange of old gold for new ornaments is a well-established and widespread trade practice across the jewellery industry, and the transactions involved over 1.13 lakh customers during the relevant year. 
The Assessing Officer, despite submission of supporting documentation and clarifications, applied an arbitrary purity rate of 18 carats to the old gold exchanged, instead of considering the actual purity and prevailing market rates adopted by the Company. This resulted in an erroneous disallowance of ^7,216 lakhs and taxation under Section 115BBE, significantly inflating the tax liability. 
Challenging this, the Company filed a writ petition before the Hon'ble High Court of Madras (Madurai Bench), which initially granted an interim stay on the demand. However, the single bench dismissed the writ without fully appreciating the principles of natural justice under Article 14 of the Constitution. Pursuant to legal advice, the Company filed an appeal before the Division Bench of the same court on 12th March 2025, which has admitted the appeal and granted an interim stay, with the next hearing scheduled for 10th June 2025. 
In the event of a favourable decision, the matter will be reassessed based on merits by the Faceless Assessment Unit. Alternatively, the Company retains its right to pursue statutory remedies through appellate forums. Since the matter is sub judice and an interim stay is in force, and considering the strong merits of the case, no provision for liability—real or contingent—is considered necessary in the financial statements.

III) Financial risk management 
The Company's principal financial liabilities comprise of loans and borrowings, lease liabilities, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company's operations. The Company's principal financial assets include cash, trade and other receivables that derive directly from its operations. 
The Company is exposed to market risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's senior management oversees the management of these risks. The Company's senior management assesses the financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework in accordance with the Company's policies and risk objectives. The Board of Directors review and agree on policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below. 
a. Market risk 
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, liquidity and other factors that could have an adverse effect on realizable fair values or future cash flows to the Company. The Company's activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in price and interest rates as future specific market changes cannot be normally predicted with reasonable accuracy. 
i. 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 changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates are managed by borrowing at fixed interest rates. During the year Company did not have any floating rate borrowings. Hence, interest rate sensitivity is not material to the financial statements. 
The fair values of the Company's interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined under amortised cost method using discount rate that reflects the issuer's borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. These rates are considered to reflect the market rate of interest and hence the carrying value are considered to be at fair value. 
ii. Price risk 
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in gold price (including fluctuations in foreign currency) arising on purchase/ sale of gold. 
To manage the variability, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage the risk associated with gold price fluctuations relating to the inventory lying with the Company. Such derivative financial instruments are primarily in the nature of future commodity contracts and forward foreign exchange contracts. The risk management strategy against gold price fluctuation also includes procuring gold on loan basis, with a flexibility to fix price of gold at any time during the tenor of the loan. 
The use of such derivative financial instruments is governed by the Company's policies approved by the Board of Directors, which provide written principles on the use of such instruments consistent with the Company's risk management strategy 
As the value of the derivative instrument generally changes in response to the value of the hedged item, the economic relationship is established. 
The following table gives details of contracts as at the end of the reporting period: 
b. 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 trade receivables, placing deposits, investment etc. the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at reporting period, as summarised below: 
The Company continuously monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties, identified either individually or by the Company, and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. The Company's policy is to transact only with counterparties who are highly creditworthy which are assessed based on internal due diligence parameters. 
Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue from customer. Credit risk has been managed by the Company through proper approvals which continuously monitors the creditworthiness of the customer to whom the Company grant credit terms in the normal course of business. 
The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents are considered negligible, since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings. 
Other financial assets mainly comprises of rental deposits and are assessed by the Company for credit risk on a continuous basis. 
c. Liquidity risk 
Liquidity risk is that the Company might be unable to meet its obligations. The Company manages its liquidity needs by monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for long-term financial liabilities as well as forecast cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business. The data used for analysing these cash flows is consistent with that used in the contractual maturity analysis below. Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on a monthly, quarterly, and yearly basis depending on the business needs. Net cash requirements are compared to available borrowing facilities in order to determine headroom or any shortfalls. This analysis shows that available borrowing facilities are expected to be sufficient over the lookout period. 
The Company's objective is to maintain cash and bank's short term credit facilities to meet its liquidity requirements for 30-day periods at a minimum. This objective was met for the reporting periods. Funding for long-term liquidity needs is additionally secured by an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. 
The Company considers expected cash flows from financial assets in assessing and managing liquidity risk, in particular its cash resources and trade receivables. 
As at 31 March, the Company's non-derivative financial liabilities have contractual maturities as summarised below:
