The non-current and current classification is carried out based on the expected realisation date.
* The amount is outstanding from the customers for reimbursement of GST. In the earlier tax regime (before GST) the company used to charge 4% VAT on the amount of service provided and was successfully able to recover the same from the customers without any default/denial. After the introduction of GST the rate of tax was changed to 12% w.e.f July, 2017. Company had entered into various contracts before July, 2017 in the pre-GST era. The work execution of these contracts continued to be carried out in the GST period, since the execution was taking a time period of 2 to 3 years. The Company while submitting the bills for the work done after the introduction of GST in July, 2017, started adding GST of 12% in the bill submitted for payment to the Government Departments But the Government Departments cleared only the basis amount of contract billed and did not paid the GST of 12% charged in the bills. However, there was no policy in the departments from the Government regarding the honouring the GST of 12% collected in the bills. The Government departments started to hold the GST of 12% charged in the bills and were waiting for the instructions from the Government. The contractors’ association looking into the injustice moved to honorable Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka, now the case is pending before the Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka.
Notes:
Trade receivables have been given as Primary security towards borrowings
In determining the recoverability of a trade receivable, the Company considers any change in the credit quality of the trade receivable from the date credit was initially granted up to the end of the reporting period. The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the fact that the customer base is large and mostly unrelated.
In every payments of running bill, project authority deduct retention amount which is either released by submitting bank guarantee or released after successful completion of project. This retention amount keeps accumulating. Collection of retention money is probable and therefore debtors on account of retention money are considered good. refer note no 32.

27 Capital risk management
The primary objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains an efficient capital structure and maximizes shareholder value. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions, annual operating plans and long term and other strategic investment plans. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes for managing capital during the period ended 31 March 2024 and year ended 31 March 2023. The Company monitors capital using a ratio of ‘adjusted net debt' to 'equity'. For this purpose, adjusted net debt is defined as total liabilities, comprising interest-bearing loans and borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Equity comprises all components of equity including share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity share holders.
In order to achieve this overall objective, the Group's capital management, amongst other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements. Breaches in meeting the financial covenants would permit the bank to immediately call loans and borrowings. There have been no breaches in the financial covenants of any interest-bearing borrowings in the current period.
28 POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT EXPENSES a. Defined contribution plan
The company makes contribution towards provident fund which is defined contribution retirement plans for qualifying employees. The provident fund plan is operated by the regional provident fund commissioner.

The amount of gratuity payable on retirement/ termination is the employees last drawn basic salary per month computed proportionately for 15 days salary multiplied for the number of years of service, subject to a payment ceiling of INR 20,00,000/-.
VII Sensitivity analysis method
The sensitivity analysis has been determined based on reasonably possible changes of the respective assumptions occurring at the end of the reporting period, while holding all other assumptions constant.
The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the projected 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 the projected benefit obligation has been calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, which is the same method as applied in calculating the projected benefit obligation as recognized in the balance sheet.
There was no change in the methods and assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis from prior years.
a. The rate used to discount post-employment benefit obligations is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds.
b. The estimates of future salary increases considered in the actuarial valuation take account of inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors, such as supply and demand in the employment market.
(iv) Terms and conditions of transactions with related parties
There have been no guarantees provided or received for any related party receivables and payables. The company has not recorded any impairment of receivables relating to amounts owned by related parties. This assessment is undertaken each financial year through examining the financial position of the related parties and market in which the related party operates.
30 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
A. Accounting classification and fair values
The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy. It does not include fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value.
The carrying amounts of trade receivables, trade payables, deposits, other receivables, cash and cash equivalent including other current bank balances and other liabilities including deposits, creditors for capital expenditure, etc. are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to current and short term nature of such balances.
C. Fair Value Hierarchy
The fair value of financial instruments as referred to above have been classified into three categories depending on the inputs used in the valuation technique. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments and mutual funds that have quoted price. The fair value of all equity instruments which are traded in the stock exchanges is valued using the closing price as at the reporting period.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities included in level 3.
31 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT A Risk management framework
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company’s primary risk management focus is to minimise potential adverse effects of market risk on its financial performance. The Company’s risk management assessment and policies and processes are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities. The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company’s risk assessment and management policies and processes. The Company has exposure to the following risks arising from financials instruments :
(i) Credit risk
(ii) Liquidity risk
(iii) Market risk (including currency and interest rate risk)
(i) 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 and investment securities. 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 provision for expected credit loss and impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables and investments.
In assessing the recoverability of receivables and other financial assets, the Company has considered internal and external information upto the date of approval of these financial statements. The impact of the global health pandemic may be different from that estimated as at the date of approval of these financial statements and the Company will continue to closely monitor any material changes to future economic conditi ons.
(a) 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.
Expected credit loss assessment for customers as at the reporting date
Exposures to customers outstanding at the end of each reporting period are reviewed by the Company to determine incurred and expected credit losses. Historical trends of impairment of trade receivables do not reflect any significant credit losses. Given that the macro economic indicators affecting customers of the Company have not undergone any substantial change, the Company expects the historical trend of minimal credit losses to continue.
On the above basis, the Company estimates the following provision matrix at the reporting date on:
(b) Loans and financial assets measured at amortized cost
Loans and advances given comprises of inter Company loans hence the risk of default from these companies are remote. The Company monitors each loans and advances given and makes any specific provision wherever required.
(c) Cash and cash equivalents
The Company held cash and cash equivalent and other bank balance of Rs.184.38 in Lakhs at March 31st, 2024 (March 31, 2022: Rs 7994.26 in Lakhs). The same are held with bank and financial institution counterparties with good credit rating. Also, Company invests its short term surplus funds in bank fixed deposit which carry no market risks for short duration, therefore does not expose the Company to credit risk.
(ii) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Company’s liquidity position and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows.
(iii) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices - will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The Company’s exposure to, and management of, these risks is explained below.
1 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 exposure of the Company’s borrowing to interest rate changes at the end of the reporting period are as follows:
(iv) Commodity Price Risk
The Company’s revenue is exposed to the market risk of price fluctuations in its division is as under: Engineering Segment: The Company generally takes turnkey projects from government departments. The contract price is generally fix and free from any price risk subject to change in any government policy or rules.
The Company primarily purchases its raw materials in the open market from third parties. The Company is therefore subject to fluctuations in prices for the purchases. The Company purchased substantially all of its raw material from third parties in the open market.
The Company aims to sell the products at prevailing market prices. Similarly the Company procures raw materials on prevailing market rates as the selling prices of its products and the prices of input raw materials move in the same direction.
32 DISCLOSURES AS PER IND AS -115
a Performance obligations and remaining performance obligations
The remaining performance obligation disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as at the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the Company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. Applying the practical expedient as given in Ind AS 115, the Company has not disclosed the remaining performance obligation related disclosures for contracts where the revenue recognized corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity's performance completed to date, typically those contracts where invoicing is on time and material basis. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, and adjustment for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency.
b Disaggregation of revenue of segments as required by Ind As -115, has been disclosed under note no. 14.
c There is no material impact on provision for expected credit loss so movement analysis is not required.
d Contract balances: The Company recognized revenue as per Ind AS 115 and revenue is directly debited in trade receivables instead of debiting it into contract assets. There is no unbilled receivable exists in balance sheet so no contact assets are being recognized in balance sheets and also there is no unearned revenue exists in balance sheet so no contract liabilities are being recognized in balance sheets .
e No contract modifications occurred during the year.
35 COVID 19 Note

In additional to the historical pattern of credit loss, we have considered the likelihood of increased credit risk and consequential default considering emerging situation due to COVID -19.

The Company has specifically evaluated the potential impact with respect to repayment capacity of the customer. The Company closely monitor its customer who are going through financial stress and assesses action such as change in payment terms, depending on severity of each case.
