2.13 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets:
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that is reasonably estimable, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date.
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within
the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made
Contingent assets are not recognised in standalone financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realised. However, when the realisation of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and its recognition is appropriate.

Borrowing costs that are attributable to acquisition and construction of qualifying assets are capitalized till the asset is ready for its intended use, based on borrowings incurred specifically for financing the asset or the weighted average rate of all other borrowings, if no specific borrowings have been incurred for the asset. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use.
All other borrowing costs are recognized as expenditure in the year in which they are incurred.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the profit attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding to reflect the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
In calculating diluted EPS:
- the profit attributable to equity shareholders is adjusted for the after tax effects of dividend, interest and other charges to income or expense associated with dilutive potential equity shares, and
- The weighted average number of equity shares is increased by the weighted average number of additional equity shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares.
The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed to be converted as at the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date.

NOTE 44:Fair Value Measurement
Financial Instrument by category and hierarchy
The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are 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.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values
Fair value of cash and short-term deposits, trade and other short-term receivables, trade payables, other current liabilities, short term loans from banks and other financial institutions approximate their carrying amounts largely due to short term maturities of these instruments.
Financial instruments with fixed and variable interest rates are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates and individual credit worthiness of the counterparty. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken to account for expected losses of these receivables. Accordingly, fair value of such instruments is not materially different from their carrying amounts.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs
The fair values for Non-Current borrowings, loans and security deposits were calculated based on cash flows discounted using a current lending rate. They are classified as level 3 fair values in the fair value hierarchy due to the inclusion of unobservable inputs including counter party credit risk
Fair Value Hierarchy
This section explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair value of the financial instruments that are measured at amortised cost for which fair values are disclosed in the financial statements or at fair value through profit and loss. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Company has classified its financial instruments into three levels prescribed under the accounting standard
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data
Fair Value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
The Company has performed sensitivity analysis around the base fair value inputs and assumptions and has concluded that there are no reasonably possible changes to the inputs or assumptions would cause the fair value of the investment to materially change
The following table presents the changes in Level 3 items for the year ended
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity Risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at a reasonable price. The Company's finance department is responsible for liquidity, funding as well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior management.

NOTE 45:Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

Market Risk is the risk of loss of future earning, fair values or future cash flow that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity prices and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market Risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investment and deposits, payables and loans and borrowings
The Company manages market risk through its finance department, which evaluate and exercises independent control over the entire process of market risk management. The activities of this department include management of cash resources, borrowing strategies, and ensuring compliance with market risk limits and policies.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates
Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that counter party may not be able to settle their obligation as agreed. To manage this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial condition, current economic trends, and analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limit are set accordingly. The maximum amount of credit risk to which the company is subject is the amount of trade receivables. The Company's policy is to place cash and cash equivalent and short term deposits with reputed banks. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities - trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents, investments and other bank balances.
The Company determines allowances for expected credit losses separately for different categories of customers using aged based provision matrix,

The Company performed its annual impairment test in March, 2026. The Company analyses both quantitative and qualitative triggers that may indicate that a CGU is impaired. Qualitative indicators include significant adverse changes in expected footfall and sales values, power prices and changes in regulations. The Company also considers the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, among other factors, when reviewing for indicators of impairment.
The recoverable amount of each cash generating unit is the higher of the cash-generating unit's fair value less cost of disposal ('Fair Value') and its value-in-use. Discounted cash flow models are applied to determine the fair value. Key assumptions used are footfall, sales prices and volumes and discount rates.
