Interest risk:

A decrease in the interest rate on plan assets will increase the plan liability.

Life expectancy:

during and at the end of the employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.

of the plan participants will increase the plan liability.

Note 37: Capital management
(a) Risk management

The company’s objectives when managing capital are to:

(a) safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other
stakeholders, and

(b) maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to
shareholders or issue new shares.

The Company’s policy is to maintain a stable and strong capital structure with a focus on total equity so as to maintain investor, creditors and
market confidence and to sustain future development and growth of its business. The Company will take appropriate steps in order to maintain,
or if necessary adjust, its capital structure.

The capital structure of the Company consists of debt, cash and cash equivalents and equity attributable to equity shareholders of the Company
which comprises issued share capital and accumulated reserves disclosed in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

Consistent with others in the industry, the Company monitors capital on the basis of net debt to equity ratio and maturity profile of overall debt
portfolio of the Company.

Net Debt implies borrowings including interest accrued on borrowings of the Company as reduced by Cash and Cash Equivalents and Equity
comprises all components attributable to the owners of the Company.

Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and financial liabilities
measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part, using a
valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument
nor are they based on available market data. This level of hierarchy includes Company’s investment in equity shares which are unquoted or for
which quoted prices are not available at the reporting dates.

(ii) Transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3

There is no transfer during the year between level 1, level 2 and level 3 with reference to financial instruments and biological assets other than
bearer plants.

(iii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

Specific valuation technique used to determine fair value includes:

(a) Investments carried at fair value are generally based on market price quotations. However in cases where quoted prices are not available the
management has involved valuation experts to help in determining the fair value of the investments. Fair value of biological assets other than
bearer plant are arrived at based on observable market price of green leaves.

(b) The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost closely approximate their fair values. The impact of
discounting on such financial assets or liabilities is not significant due to the market terms (rates and tenor) available and because the instruments
are short term in nature or do not have any fixed contractual maturities.

(c) Management uses its best judgement in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations in
any estimation technique. 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 subsequent to the reporting dates may be different from the amounts reported at each reporting date.

(iv) Equity Instruments carried at fair value through other comprehensive income

These investments in equity shares are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for long term purpose. The Company has chosen to designate
these investments in equity instruments at FVOCI since, it provides a more meaningful presentation.

Note 39: Financial risk management

In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, liquidity and credit risk, which
may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. In order to minimise any adverse effects on the financial performance of the
Company, the company has risk management policies as described below :-

(A) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial
loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) including deposits with banks and financial
institutions and other financial instruments carried at amortised cost and financial guarantees.

Financial instruments that are subject to credit risk and concentration thereof principally consist of trade receivables, loans receivables,
investments, other financial assets and cash and cash equivalents held by the Company. None of the financial instruments of the Company result
in material concentration of credit risk.

The carrying value of financial assets represents the maximum credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk was Rs. 15311.31 lakhs, Rs.
13997.21 lakhs, as at 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2024 respectively, being the total carrying value of financial assets excluding cash on
hand.

i) Trade and other receivables

Credit risk on receivables is minimum since sales through different mode (eg. auction, consignment, private) are made after judging credit
worthiness of the customers or advance payment. The history of defaults has been minimal and outstanding receivables are regularly monitored.

ii) Financial instruments and bank deposits

For credit risk on the loans to employees, the Company is not expecting any material risk on account of non-performance by any of the
parties. Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company’s treasury department in accordance with
the Company’s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each
counterparty. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counterparty’s potential
failure to make payments.

(B) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations in accordance with terms of
contract. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding through
an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions.

Management monitors rolling forecasts of the company's liquidity position (including the undrawn credit facilities extended by banks and financial
institutions) and cash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. In addition, the Company's liquidity management policy involves
projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against
internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans.

(C) Market risk

(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 relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations
with floating interest rates.

The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Company to cash flow interest
rate risk. During 31 March, 2025 and 31 March, 2024, the Company’s borrowings at variable rate were denominated in Rupees.

The Company’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as defined in Ind AS 107,
since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market interest rates.

(ii) Price risk

(a) Exposure

The Company’s exposure to equity securities & mutual funds price risk arises from investments held by the Company and classified in the
balance sheet at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income or at Fair Value through Profit & Loss Account. To manage its price risk arising
from investments in equity securities & mutual funds, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance
with the limits set by the Company. In general, these investments are not held for trading purposes.

(b) Sensitivity

The company does not hold any quoted investments as on 31st March 2025 and 31st March 2024.

(iii) Foreign currency risk

The company deals with foreign currency loan, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade payables, etc. and is therefore
exposed to foreign exchange risk associated with exchange rate movement.

The company is is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its borrowings. The management regularly monitors the currency movement to
manage its currency risk.

(D) Agricultural Risk

Cultivation of tea being an agricultural activity, there are certain specific financial risks. These financial risks arise mainly due to adverse

weather conditions, logistic problems inherent to remote areas, and fluctuation of selling price of finished goods (tea) due to changes in supply/

availability.

The Company manages the above financial risks in the following manner:

• Sufficient inventory levels of agro chemicals, fertilizers and other inputs are maintained so that timely corrective action can be taken in case
of adverse weather conditions.

• Sufficient level of consumable stores viz packing materials, coal and HSD are maintained in order to mitigate financial risk arising from
logistics problems.

• Sufficient working-capital-facility is obtained from banks in such a way that cultivation, manufacture and sale of tea is not adversely affected
even in times of adverse conditions.

Note 40: Segment reporting

The Company's chief operating decision maker viz. Chairman and Managing Director examine the Company's performance as a single segment,

viz. "Growing, harvesting and sale of loose and packet tea and other allied services relating to plantation sector”.

@ Represents remuneration to key managerial person

# Includes Rent paid against leased assets has been accounted for in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards 116 (Ind AS 116, Leases w.e.f. 01-04¬
2019)

Other Terms and Conditions of transactions with Related Parties

Transactions related to dividend were on the same terms and conditions that applied to other shareholders. The other transactions are made in the ordinary
course of business. Outstanding balances at the year end are unsecured. No provision are held against receivable from related parties. All the transactions
mentioned above are inclusive of GST, where applicable.

The carrying amount of the biological assets other than bearer plants as per note 12 of these Standalone Financial Statements amounts to
Rs. 160.50 lakhs (31 March 2024 Rs. 91.32 lakhs)

The carrying amount of the Finished Goods (Inventories) as per Note 11 of these Standalone Financial Statements amounts to Rs. 1,285.43
lakhs (PY Rs. 2,203.94 lakhs). The same comprise of Tea made out of tea leaves harvested from own gardens ("agricultural produce”)
amounting to Rs. 1,246.64 lakhs (PY Rs. 1,058.05 lakhs), Tea made out of purchased tea leaves amounting to Rs. Nil (PY Rs. 613.78 lakhs)
and Tea purchased amounting to Rs. 38.79 lakhs (PY Rs. 532.09 lakhs).

The biological assets ("Tea leaves growing on tea bushes”) and agricultural produce used in the production of finished goods of tea used in such
inventory are stated at fair value less costs to sell. Such inventory of Tea is carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The same is
applying the principles of Ind AS 41 and Ind AS 2.

The valuation of biological assets and agricultural produce used in the production of finished goods (Tea) involves judgements in the consideration
of factors used in the determination of fair value of such agricultural produce. The company considers various factors such as comparing the
actual selling prices prevailing around year end for completed seasonal cycle, including technical factors which determine the quality and hence
the fair value of biological assets and agricultural produce. The said practice is consistently practiced followed by the company.

Note 43: Leases

The Company’s lease contract which qualifies as leases under Ind AS 116, are majorly in respect of leases for Buildings, Plant & equipments
and Furniture & fixtures. The movement in right of use assets and lease liability during the year is given below:-

Note 45: The Company had acquired certain tea estates in the Financial Year 2022-23 wherein the Company had taken over the outstanding
Employees Provident Fund liabilities for the respective gardens as on January 01, 2023 from the erstwhile owner. As agreed with Provident
