K. Provisions and contingent liabilities

A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of past event and it is probable that an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, in respect of which a reliable estimate can be made.
Such provisions are determined based on management estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the Balance Sheet
date. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

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 liabilities are disclosed on the basis of
judgment of management. These are reviewed at each balance sheet date and disclosed to reflect the current management estimates.

Contingent assets are not recognised in the financial statements. A contingent asset is disclosed where an inflow of economic benefits
is probable. Contingent assets are assessed continually and, if it is virtually certain that an inflow of economic benefits will arise, the
asset and related income are recognised in the period in which the change occurs.

L. Income taxesa. Current tax

Income tax has been recognized under normal provisions of Income Tax Act, 1961 during the year. Till last year the Company was
required to to pay tax under the MAT Provisions. Deferred taxes are recognized in statement of profit and loss, except when they relate
to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

b. Deferred income taxes

Deferred income tax is recognized using the balance sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except
when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction. Deferred income tax assets are
recognized 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 utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which the temporary differences are expected to be received or settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net
basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets / liabilities.

c. Recognition of MAT Credit entitlement:

The credit availed under MAT is recognized as an asset only when and to the extent there is convincing evidence that the Company will
pay normal income tax during the period for which the MAT credit can be carried forward for set off against the normal tax liability.
This requires significant management judgment in determining the expected availment of the credit based on the business plans and
future cash flows ofthe Company.

liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of exchange at the reporting date.

c. Exchange Differences

the extent of exchange differences which are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs on foreign currency borrowings (including
FCNR(B) loans) that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets, are capitalized as cost of assets.

FCNR(B) Loan Treatment:

• Principal amount translated at closing exchange rate

• Exchange differences on principal recognized in profit or loss unless capitalized for qualifying assets

• Interest expense translated at average rate for the period

• Hedge accounting applied where derivative instruments are used to hedge foreign exchange risk

N. Employee benefits

i) Short term employee benefits

All employee benefits which are payable within twelve months of rendering service are classified as short-term employee benefits.
Benefits such as salaries, wages, bonus, short term compensated absences and the expected cost of ex-gratia is recognized in the period
in which the employee renders the related service.

Employee benefits include short term benefits like salaries and wages which are recognized as an expense in the statement of Profit and
Loss of the year in which the related service is rendered.

A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid when there is a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as
a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

ii) Post-Employment Benefits

Defined Contribution Plans A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Company pays specified
contributions to a separate entity. The Company makes specified monthly contributions towards Provident Fund, Superannuation
Fund and Pension Scheme. The Company''s contribution is recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss during the
period in which the employee renders the related service.

Defined Benefits Plans The cost of the defined benefit plan and other post-employment benefits and the present value of such
obligation are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from
actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and
future pension increases. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is
highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.

iii) Provident Fund

Provident Fund contributions are made to a trust administered by the Trustees. Trust makes investments and settles member''s claims.
Interest Payable to the members shall not be at a rate lower than the statutory rate. Liability is recognized for any shortfall in the plan
assets vis-a-vis actuarially determined liability ofthe fund obligation.

iv) Gratuity Plan

The company has a defined gratuity plan. Every employee who has rendered continuous service of 5 years or more is entitled to
gratuity amount of 15 days salary (15/26 last drawn basic salary plus dearness allowance) for each completed year for five year or more
subject to maximum of ? 20 lakhs on superannuation, resignation, termination, disablement or death.

The liability in respect of gratuity and other post-employment benefits is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method and spread
over the period during which the benefit is expected to be derived from employees'' services.

Re-measurement of defined benefit plans in respect of post- employment are charged to the Other Comprehensive Income.

O. Cash and cash equivalents:

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call

convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, and bank overdrafts. Bank
overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the balance sheet.

P. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the company by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the
period are adjusted for events of bonus issue; bonus element in a right issue to existing shareholders and instruments converted to
equity during the year.

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

Q. Dividend Distribution:

Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognized as a liability in the Company''s financial statements in the period in which the
dividends are approved by the Company''s shareholders.

R. Cost recognition

Costs and expenses are recognized when incurred and have been classified according to their nature. The costs of the Company are
broadly categorized in employee benefit expenses, Finance Costs, cost of raw materials consumed, depreciation and amortization
expense and other expenses. Employee benefit expenses include Salaries & wages, bonus to employees, incentives and allowances,
contributions to provident fund and other funds and staff welfare expenses. Other expenses mainly include laboratory expenses, power

S. Investment Property

As per Ind AS 40 "Investment Property”, Investment property is property (land or a building—or part of a building—or both) held (by
the owner or by the lessee under a finance lease) to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both. Therefore, an investment property
generates cash flows largely independently of the other assets held by an entity. This distinguishes investment property from owner-
occupied property. The production or supply of goods or services (or the use of property for administrative purposes) generates cash
flows that are attributable not only to property, but also to other assets used in the production or supply process.

Investment property shall be recognized as an asset when and only when: a. It is probable that the future economic benefits that are
associated with the investment property will flow to the entity; and b. The cost of the investment property can be measured reliably.

Reclassification to investment property When the use of a property changes from owner occupied to investment property, the
property is reclassified as investment property as it''s carrying amount on the date ofreclassification.

change in use, evidenced by: commencement of owner-occupation, for a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied
property; commencement of development with a view to sale, for a transfer from investment property to inventories; end of owner-
occupation, for a transfer from owner-occupied property to investment property; or Commencement of an operating lease to another

33. Defined Benefit Plan

Gratuity is classified as Defined Benefit Plan as company’s obligation is to provide agreed benefits, subject to minimum benefits
as subscribed by the Payment of Gratuity Act to Plan members. The Company’s net obligation is arrived by deducting Fair Value
of Plan Assets from the Present value of Defined Benefit obligation as on the date of valuation. Present Value of Defined Benefit
Obligation is calculated by projecting the benefit till the time of retirement of each active member using assumed salary
escalation rate, mortality & employee turnover rates. The expected benefit payments are then discounted back from the future
payment date to the date of valuation using assumed discounting rate.

The Company pays gratuity to the employees whoever has completed 4 years 240 days of service with the Company at the time of
resignation/retirement/superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15 days Plan Salary for every completed year of service (6 months
and above shall be considered as 1 year) as per the Payment of Gratuity Act 1972. Maximum Ceiling isRs. 20 Lacs. The Scheme
is funded through approved gratuity fund of LIC formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees.

As per IND AS 19 "Employee benefits", the detailed disclosures as per the Actuarial Valuation Report dated 20/04/2026 are
given below:

Ind AS 19 DisclosuresBackground

Gratuity is classified as Defined Benefit plan as enterprise''s obligation is to provide agreed benefits, subject to minimum benefits
as subscribed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, to plan members. Actuarial & Investment risks are borne by the enterprise.

The Net Defined Benefit Liability/ (Asset) is the Net (Surplus)/Deficit in the plan netted off by effect of Asset Ceiling, if any. It is
arrived by deducting Fair Value of Plan Assets from the Defined Benefit Obligation as on the date of valuation.

As required under Para 67 of Ind AS 19 actuarial valuation is done using Projected Unit Credit Method. Under this method, only
benefits accrued till the date of valuation (i.e. based on service up to date of valuation) are to be considered for valuation. Present
value of Defined Benefit Obligation is calculated by projecting salaries, exits due to death, resignation and other decrements, if
any, and projects the benefit till the time of retirement of each active member using assumed rates of salary escalation, mortality &
employee turnover rates. The expected benefit payments are then discounted back from the future date of payment to the date of
valuation using the assumed discount rate.

''Service Cost'' is calculated separately in respect of benefit accrued during the current period using the same method as described
above. However, instead of all accrued benefits, benefit accrued over the current reporting period is considered.

Recognition of Actuarial Gains/Losses

All the re-measurements, comprising of actuarial gains/losses on DBO & Fair value of assets, arising during the reporting period
have been recognized in full through outside of Profit & Loss account through Other Comprehensive Income.

Discount Rate

Discount Rate for this valuation is based on Government bonds having similar term to duration of liabilities. Due to lack of a deep
& secondary bond market in India, government bond yields are used to arrive at the discount rate.

Risk Posed by the Plan

Gratuity is a multiple of last drawn salary paid at the time of retirement/resignation/death. The actuarial risk i.e. unusual (typically
high) salary growth or turnover rate can increase the cost of providing the benefit. It can also alter timing of cash flows. This risk is
borne by the employer. Gratuity is paid as lump sum and hence there is no longevity risk involved.

Asset Information

The scheme is funded through an ''Approved Trust''. The Trust has taken a Policy from the Life Insurance Corporation of India
(LIC) and the management of the fund is undertaken by the LIC. We have been provided with the fund size of Rs.42.92 Lakhs as
of the valuation date.

Funding Requirements

Currently there are no minimum funding requirements in India. The investments made by the trust are regulated by the Income
Tax Act. The enterprise and the trustees should ensure compliance with the provisions of the said act.

Special Events

No consideration about any benefit improvements, curtailments & settlements during the inter-valuation period.

b. Financial risk management objective and policies:

This section gives an overview of the significance of financial instruments for the Company and provides additional information
on the balance sheet. Details of material accounting policies & other accounting policies including the criteria for recognition, the
basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expenses are recognized, in respect of each class of financial asset and
financial liability are disclosed in Note No. 1

Financial assets and liabilities: The accounting classification of each category of financial instruments, and their carrying
amounts, are set out below:

c. Financial Risk Management:

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

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 for the year ended March 31,2026.

Financial risk

The Company’s Board of Directors approves financial risk policies comprising liquidity, foreign currency, interest rate and
counter-party credit risk. The Company does not engage in the speculative treasury activity but seeks to manage risk and optimize
interest through proven financial instruments.

a. Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counter-party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations causing
financial loss to the company.

Credit risk arises mainly from the outstanding receivables from customers.

Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness
of counter-party to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.

Deposits are with government departments and with lessor so chances of default are very minimal.

For short-term loans and advances, counter-party limits are in place to limit the amount of credit exposure to any counter-party.
None of the Company’s cash equivalents are past due or impaired.

b. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Company’s inability to meet its financial obligation as it becomes due.

The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to
meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to
the Company’s reputation.

The table below provides details regarding the contractual maturities of significant financial liabilities :

c. Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in
market rates and prices (such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-
sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices.

Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and
payables and all short term and long term debt.

The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk.

Thus, the Company’s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating
and operating activities in foreign currencies.

d. Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s foreign exchange risk arises from its foreign operations, foreign currency revenues and expenses,
(primarily in US Dollars ). As a result, if the value ofthe Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the
Company’s revenues and expenses measured in Indian rupees may decrease or increase and vice-versa. The exchange
rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed substantially in recent periods and may
continue to fluctuate substantially in the future.

i. Significant foreign currency risk exposure in US Dollars relating to trade receivables, other receivables, cash and
cash equivalents and trade payables:

Hedge Accounting:

The Company avails Foreign Currency Loans from State Bank of India to reduce the interest cost.

The Company duly takes forward cover to hedge against the foreign currency risks.

The premium paid for the hedging is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

e. Interest rate Risk:

The Company has loan facilities on floating interest rate, which exposes the Company to risk of changes in interest rates.
The Company’s Finance Department monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk by
evaluating interest rate swaps etc. based on the market / risk perception.

For the year ended March 31,2026 and March 31, 2025, every 1% increase in interest rate for the above mentioned financial liabilities
would decrease the Company’s profit & equity by approximately ? 30.18 Lakhs and decrease the Company’s profit & equity by
approximately ? 28.07 Lakhs respectively.

A 1% decrease in interest rate would lead to an equal but opposite effect.

37. Leases

The Company has adopted Ind AS 116 “Leases” to its leases due to which rental expense is being replaced by depreciation charge on
right-of-use asset amounting to ?53.30 Lakhs (Previous Year ?44.42 Lakhs) which is included under depreciation and amortization
expense in statement of profit and loss and finance cost on lease liability amounting to ?22.47 Lakhs (Previous Year ^10.56 Lakhs).
The Company recognizes a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-of-use assets are
recognized at cost, which comprises the amount of the measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made on or
before the inception date of the lease. Accordingly, a right-of-use asset ?371.16 Lakhs (previous year ?78.01 Lakhs)and a
corresponding lease liability of ?399.18 Lakhs (previous year ?108.16 Lakhs) has been recognized.

38. Segmental Reporting:

The company is engaged in the sole segment of Analysis and Testing. Therefore, no separate segments within the Company as defined
by IndAS-108(Operating Segments) needs to be reported separately.

32. Defined Benefit Plan

Gratuity is classified as Defined Benefit Plan as company’s obligation is to provide agreed benefits, subject to minimum benefits as subscribed by the Payment of Gratuity Act to Plan members. The Company’s net obligation is arrived by deducting Fair Value of Plan Assets from the Present value of Defined Benefit obligation as on the date of valuation. Present Value of Defined Benefit Obligation is calculated by projecting the benefit till the time of retirement of each active member using assumed salary escalation rate, mortality & employee turnover rates. The expected benefit payments are then discounted back from the future payment date to the date of valuation using assumed discounting rate.

The Company pays gratuity to the employees whoever has completed 4 years 240 days of service with the Company at the time of resignation/retirement/superannuation. The gratuity is paid @15 days Plan Salary for every completed year of service (6 months and above shall be considered as 1 year) as per the Payment of Gratuity Act 1972. Maximum Ceiling is Rs. 20 Lacs. The Scheme is funded through approved gratuity fund of LIC formed exclusively for gratuity payment to the employees.

As per IND AS 19 "Employee benefits", the detailed disclosures as per the Actuarial Valuation Report dated 20/05/2025 are given below:

Ind AS 19 Disclosures Background

Gratuity is classified as Defined Benefit plan as enterprise''s obligation is to provide agreed benefits, subject to minimum benefits as subscribed by the Payment of Gratuity Act, to plan members. Actuarial & Investment risks are borne by the enterprise.

The Net Defined Benefit Liability/ (Asset) is the Net (Surplus)/Deficit in the plan netted off by effect of Asset Celling, if any. It is arrived by deducting Fair Value of Plan Assets from the Defined Benefit Obligation as on the date of valuation.

As required under Para 67 of Ind AS 19 actuarial valuation is done using Projected Unit Credit Method. Under this method, only benefits accrued till the date of valuation (i.e. based on service up to date of valuation) are to be considered for valuation. Present value of Defined Benefit Obligation is calculated by projecting salaries, exits due to death, resignation and other decrements, if any, and projects the benefit till the time of retirement of each active member using assumed rates of salary escalation, mortality & employee turnover rates. The expected benefit payments are then discounted back from the future date of payment to the date of valuation using the assumed discount rate.

''Service Cost'' is calculated separately in respect of benefit accrued during the current period using the same method as described above. However, instead of all accrued benefits, benefit accrued over the current reporting period is considered.

Recognition of Actuarial Gains/Losses

All the re-measurements, comprising of actuarial gains/losses on DBO & Fair value of assets, arising during the reporting period have been recognized in full through outside of Profit & Loss account through Other Comprehensive Income.

Discount Rate

Discount Rate for this valuation is based on Government bonds having similar term to duration of liabilities. Due to lack of a deep & secondary bond market in India, government bond yields are used to arrive at the discount rate.

Risk Posed by the Plan

Gratuity is a multiple of last drawn salary paid at the time of retirement/resignation/death. The actuarial risk i.e. unusual (typically high) salary growth or turnover rate can increase the cost of providing the benefit. It can also alter timing of cash flows. This risk is borne by the employer. Gratuity is paid as lump sum and hence there is no longevity risk involved.

Asset Information

The scheme is funded through an ''Approved Trust''. The Trust has taken a Policy from the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and the management ofthe fund is undertaken by the LIC. There has been a fund size of Rs.35.86 Lakhs as ofthe valuation. Funding Requirements

Currently there are no minimum funding requirements in India. The investments made by the trust are regulated by the Income Tax Act. The enterprise and the trustees should ensure compliance with the provisions ofthe said act.

Special Events

No consideration about any benefit improvements, curtailments & settlements during the inter-valuation period.

34. Equity Contribution - Interest-Free Loan from Directors

Interest-free loans from directors are initially measured at fair value. For very short-term loans, the transaction amount is considered to approximate fair value. For other loans, fair value is determined by discounting future cash flows at market interest rates for similar instruments. The difference between face value and fair value is treated as deemed equity contribution. Subsequently, such loans are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

During the year, the Company received an interest-free loan amounting to ?72 Lakhs from its directors in the nature other than very short term loans. In accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 109 - Financial Instruments, the loan has been initially recognized at its fair value of ?69.55 Lakhs. The difference of ?2.45 Lakhs between the transaction value and fair value, being in the nature of a capital contribution by the director, has been recognized as equity under "Other Equity".

The loan is unsecured, interest-free, and repayable on demand. The Company has used an effective interest rate of 8.5% for discounting purposes, in line with prevailing market conditions for similar instruments.

Correspondingly, an amount of ?2.45 Lakhs is included in Interest and Finance charges on financial liabilities. However, no such actual interest is paid to directors.

• It is worth to mention here that this equity amount arises due to Ind AS 109 fair valuation and is not a direct issuance of shares and that the amount is non-distributable and forms part of capital contribution reserve.

Financial assets and liabilities: The accounting classification of each category of financial instruments, and their carrying amounts, are set out below:

c. Financial Risk Management:

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

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 for the year ended March 31,2025.

Financial risk

The Company’s Board of Directors approves financial risk policies comprising liquidity, foreign currency, interest rate and counterparty credit risk. The Company does not engage in the speculative treasury activity but seeks to manage risk and optimize interest through proven financial instruments.

a. Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations causing financial loss to the company.

Credit risk arises mainly from the outstanding receivables from customers.

Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of counterparty to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.

The Company has used expected credit loss (ECL) model for assessing the impairment loss.

For the purpose, the Company uses a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss amount.

The provision matrix takes into account external and internal risk factors and historical data of credit losses from various customers.

Deposits are with government departments and with lessor so chances of default are very minimal.

For short-term loans and advances, counterparty limits are in place to limit the amount of credit exposure to any counterparty. None of the Company’s cash equivalents are past due or impaired.

b. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Company’s inability to meet its financial obligation as it becomes due.

The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risk to the Company’s reputation.

The table below provides details regarding the contractual maturities of significant financial liabilities :

c. Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and prices (such as interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates) or in the price of market risk-sensitive instruments as a result of such adverse changes in market rates and prices.

Market risk is attributable to all market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long term debt.

The Company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk.

Thus, the Company’s exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currencies.

d. Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s foreign exchange risk arises from its foreign operations, foreign currency revenues and expenses, (primarily in US Dollars ). As a result, if the value ofthe Indian rupee appreciates relative to these foreign currencies, the Company’s revenues and expenses measured in Indian rupees may decrease or increase and vice-versa. The exchange rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies have changed substantially in recent periods and may continue to fluctuate substantially in the future.

I. Significant foreign currency risk exposure in US Dollars relating to trade receivables, other receivables, cash

and cash equivalents and trade payables:

Hedge Accounting:

The Company duly takes forward cover to hedge against the foreign currency risks.

The premium paid for the hedging is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss.

e. Interest rate Risk:

The Company has loan facilities on floating interest rate, which exposes the Company to risk of changes in interest rates. The Company’s Finance Department monitors the interest rate movement and manages the interest rate risk by evaluating interest rate swaps etc. based on the market / risk perception.

For the year ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, every 1% increase in interest rate for the above mentioned financial liabilities would decrease the Company’s profit & equity by approximately ? 28.07 Lakhs and decrease the Company’s profit & equity by approximately ? 29.27 Lakhs respectively.

A 1% decrease in interest rate would lead to an equal but opposite effect.

37. Leases

The Company recognizes a lease liability measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. The right-of-use assets are recognized at cost, which comprises the amount of the measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made on or before the inception date of the lease. Accordingly, a right-of-use asset ?78.01 Lakhs (previous year ?122.43 Lakhs)and a corresponding lease liability of ?108.16 Lakhs (previous year ?159.91 Lakhs)has been recognized.

38. Segmental Reporting:
