2.10. Provisions and contingences

The Company recognises a provision when there is present obligation as a result of a past event that probably requires an outflow
of resources and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best
estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and
uncertainties surrounding the obligation.

In cases where the available information indicates that the loss on the contingency is reasonable possible but the amount of loss can not
be reasonably estimated, a disclosure is made in the financial statements.

Provisions are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. If it is no longer probable that the
outflow of resources would be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.

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 may arise from past events but probably will not require an outflow of resources to settle the obligation.

When there is a possible obligation or a present obligation in respect of which likelihood of outflow of resource is remote, no provision or
disclosure is made.

Contingent assets are neither recognised nor disclosed in the financial statements.

2.11. Leases

The Company has adopted In-AS 116 -Leases.

At the inception of the contract, the Company assesses whether a contract contains a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the
contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For the purpose of
identifying if a contract contains a lease, the Company assesses whether:

( i) the contract involves the use of an identified asset

(ii) the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset through the period of the lease, and

(iii) the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

At the date of commencement of the lease, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU”) and a corresponding lease liability for all
lease arrangements in which it is a lessee, except in case of low value leases and short term leases (a term of less than twelve months)
wherein the lease payments are recognized as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

The lease liability is initially measured at amortized cost at the present value of the future lease payments. The lease payments are
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if not readily determinable, using the incremental borrowing rates.

Certain lease arrangements includes the options to extend or terminate the lease before the end of the lease term. ROU assets and
lease liabilities includes these options when it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. Lease liabilities are remeasured with a
corresponding adjustment to the related right of use asset if the Company changes its assessment if whether it will exercise an extension
or a termination option.

The right-of-use assets are initially recognized at cost. Cost includes the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments
made at or prior to the commencement date of the lease plus any initial direct costs less any lease incentives. They are subsequently
measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated from the commencement date on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the underlying asset or
the lease term whichever is shorter. Right of use assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

Lease liability and ROU asset have been separately presented in the Balance Sheet and lease payments have been classified as financing
cash flows.

2.12. Taxes on Income

(i) Current Tax

Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid to the tax authorities in accordance with the Income Tax Act, 1961 in respect
of taxable income for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years.

(ii) Deferred Tax

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts for financial reporting purpose.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

Where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination
and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit and loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax
losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible
temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

Where the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability
in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable
profit and loss.

The carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that
sufficient taxable profit will be available or allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are
reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the
deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside Profit & Loss is recognised outside Profit & Loss (either in other comprehensive income
or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or other equity.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current
tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same tax authority.

2.13. Earnings per share

The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per equity share. Basic earnings per equity share have been computed by dividing net
profit / loss attributable to the equity shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
year. Diluted earnings per equity share have been computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity shares holders after giving
impact of dilutive potential equity shares for the year by the weighted average number of equity shares and dilutive potential equity shares
outstanding during the year, except where the results are anti-dilutive.

2.14. Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker
(CODM). The Managing Director of the Company has been identified as the CODM as defined by Ind-AS 108 Operating Segments, who
assesses the financial performance and position of the Company and makes strategic decisions.

The Company is dealing primarily in investment of shares and hence it is single segment company and segment reporting is not applicable
on the Company.

2.15 Cash Flow Statement

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, prescribed in IND AS -7 whereby profit/(loss) before extraordinary items and tax is
adjusted for the effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The
cash flow from operating, financing and investing activities of the company are segregated based on the available information.

Description of nature and purpose of each reserve
General reserve

General reserve is created from time to time by way of transfer profits from retained earnings for appropriation purposes. General
reserve is created by a transfer from one component of equity to another and is not an item of other comprehensive income.

Retained earning

Retained earnings are the profits that the Company has earned till date, less any transfer to general reserves, dividends and other
distributions made to the shareholders.

Statutory reserve

As per Section 45-IC(1) of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934, every non-banking financial company shall create a reserve fund
and transfer therein a sum not less than twenty per cent of its net profit every year as disclosed in the profit and loss account and
before any dividend is declared.

FVTOCI Equity investment reserve

The Company has elected to recognise changes in the fair value of investment in equity shares in other comprehensive income.
These changes are accumulated within the FVTOCI investment reserve within equity. The Company will transfer amounts from the
said reserve to retained earnings when the relevant equity shares are de-recognised.

The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yield of Indian government securities as at the balance sheet date for the
estimated terms of the obligation.

An amount of ' 2.43 Lakhs (previous year ' 4.52 lakhs) pertaining to compensated absences is recognised as an expense and
included in "Employee benefits expense" in Note 29.

c. Defined benefit plan:

Gratuity scheme - This is an unfunded defined benefit plan and it entitles an employee, who has rendered at least 5 years of con¬
tinuous service, to receive one-half month's salary for each year of completed service at the time of retirement/exit.

The most recent actuarial valuation of plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation for gratuity were carried
out as at 31 March 2025. The present value of the defined benefit obligations and the related current service cost and past ser¬
vice cost, were measured using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

The Company has a defined benefit gratuity plan in India governed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. It entitles an employee
who has rendered at least 5 years of continuous service, to gratuity at the rate of 15 days wages for every completed year of
service or part thereof in excess of 6 months, based on the rate of wages last drawn by the employee concerned.

(i) Reconciliation of the net defined benefit liability

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for the net defined benefit liability

and its components

#The Company has not disclosed fair value financial instruments carried at amortised cost such as investments, cash and cash
equivalents, other bank balances and other financial assets because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair
value.

*The Company has not disclosed fair value financial instruments carried at amortised cost such as trade payables, borrowings and
other financial liabilities because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of fair value.

iii. Measurement of fair values

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value
hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or
indirectly observable inputs.

Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

Note 40. Financial risk management
Introduction and risk profile

The Company is a Non Banking Financial Company registered with Reserve Bank of India.

management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.

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 in a
timely manner, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation.

The Company's primary sources of liquidity include cash and bank balances, deposits, investment in mutual funds and cash flow from
operating activities. As at 31 March 2025, the Company had a working capital of ' 8553.48 Lakhs (31 March 2024: ' 5815.90
Lakhs) including cash and cash equivalent of ' 598.06 Lakhs (31 March 2024: ' 359.77 Lakhs).

funds to cover its short term liquidity needs.

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, which 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.
iii. a) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk from the external borrowings that are used to finance their operations.
iii. b) Market price risk

The Company is mainly exposed to the price risk due to its investment in mutual funds and quoted equity shares. The price risk arises
due to uncertainties about the future market values of these investments. The Company has laid policies and guidelines which it
