Justification
----------------Page (62) Break----------------
61
Nil
Varies (from -64% to +12%)
The remuneration of managerial
personnel was adjusted based on role-
specific responsibilities, performance, and
organizational requirements. While the
Managing Director’s remuneration
decreased by 64% due to cost
rationalization measures, the CFO saw
a minor reduction, and the Company
Secretary received a 12% increase in
recognition of enhanced compliance
responsibilities
c) The percentage increase in the median remuneration of employees in the financial year;
Nil
d) The number of permanent employees on the rolls of Company: Two (2) employees as on
31.03.2025.
e) Justification of increase in managerial remuneration with that of increase in remuneration
of other employees:
Managerial remuneration varied significantly based on individual roles and strategic
considerations:
• The Managing Director’s remuneration decreased by 64%, as part of a cost rationalization
strategy aligned with the company’s financial priorities. The Managing Director has not
drawn remuneration from 01.07.2024.
• The Chief Financial Officer’s remuneration saw a marginal decrease of 6%, reflecting
alignment with overall budgetary control.
• The Company Secretary received a 12% increase, recognizing the increased scope of work
and compliance requirements during the year.
The variations in managerial remuneration are therefore not directly proportional to the average
increase for other employees, and are instead based on role-specific contributions, organizational
performance, and cost management efforts. This approach ensures fairness while maintaining
sustainability and accountability in compensation practices.
f) Affirmation that the remuneration is as per the remuneration policy of the Company:
Santkumar Bagrodia, Managing Director of the Company hereby affirm that all the employees
including Key Managerial Personal are paid remuneration as per the Remuneration Policy
formulated by the Company and approved by the Board.
g) The statement containing particulars of employees as required under Section 197(12) of the
Act read with Rule 5(2) of the Companies (Appointment and Remuneration of Managerial
Personnel) Rules, 2014:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF
GSL SECURITIES LIMITED
Report on the Audit of Standalone Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the Standalone Financial Statements of GSL SECURITIES Limited (hereinafter referred
to as “the Company”), which comprise the Standalone Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, and the
Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss including Other Comprehensive Income, the Standalone Cash Flow
Statement and the Standalone Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the
Standalone Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information (collectively referred to as ‘Standalone Financial Statements’).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Financial
Statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”)
in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards
(Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules,
2015, as amended and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs (financial
position) of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and its loss, total comprehensive profit, the changes in equity
and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10)
of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the
Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India
together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Other Information
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the annual report, but does not include the Standalone Financial
Statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
----------------Page (68) Break----------------
67
In connection with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report the fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial
Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with
respect to the preparation of these Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the
financial position, financial performance including Other Comprehensive Income, Cash Flows and Changes
in Equity of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted
in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also
includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for
safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities;
selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are
reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,
that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant
to the preparation and presentation of the Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Financial Statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone
Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements, whether due
to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures
• responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for
expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in place
and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
----------------Page (69) Break----------------
68
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that
a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related
disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report.
However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Financial Statements including
the disclosures, and whether the Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions
and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
Standalone Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative
factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate
the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a
matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

xiv. In our opinion, the company has an adequate internal audit system commensurate with the size and
nature of its business. We have considered, the internal audit reports issued to the Company during
the year and covering the period up to March 31, 2025, in determining the nature, timing and extent
of our audit procedures.

ageing and expected dates of realization of financial assets and payment of financial liabilities, other
information accompanying the financial statements, our knowledge of the Board of Directors and
management plans and
based on our examination of the evidence supporting the assumptions, nothing has come to our
attention, which causes us to believe that any material uncertainty exists as on the date of the audit
report that company is not capable of meeting its liabilities existing at the date of balance sheet as
and when they fall due within a period of one year from the balance sheet date. We, however, state
that this is not an assurance as to the future viability of the company. We further state that our
reporting is based on the facts up to the date of the audit report and we neither give any guarantee nor
any assurance that all liabilities falling due within a period of one year from the balance sheet date,
will get discharged by the company as and when they fall due.
xx. According to the information and explanations given to us, the Company need not spend any amount
as required in the Section 135 of the said Act. Accordingly, provisions of Clause 3(xx) (a) and (b) of

GSL SECURITIES LIMITED
ANNEXURE-B TO INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
The Annexure referred to in paragraph 2(f) under the ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements’
our report to the members of GSL SECURITIES LIMITED, (‘the Company’) for the year ended on March
31, 2025.
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-Section 3 of Section 143 of the Act
We have audited internal financial controls over financial reporting of GSL SECURITIES LIMITED (“the
Company”) as of March 31, 2025 in conjunction with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the
Company for the year then ended on that date.
Management’s Responsibility for the Internal Financial Controls
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based
on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential
components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over
Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). These responsibilities
includes design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating
effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of business, including adherence to Company’s
policies, the safeguarding of the assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as
required under the Act.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting
based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal
Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (‘the Guidance Note’) and the Standards on Auditing deemed
to be prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Act to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial
controls, both applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and both issued by the ICAI. Those
Standards and Guidance note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting
was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedure to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial
controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial
controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over
financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal controls based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend
on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone
Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A Company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide a reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of Standalone Financial Statements
for external purpose in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company’s internal
financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
----------------Page (76) Break----------------
75
1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
2. Provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles, and
that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorisations
of management and directors of the Company; and
3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use,
or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Standalone Financial
Statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the
possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or
fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial control
over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over
financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material aspects, an adequate internal financial control system over
financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as
at March 31, 2025, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company
considering the essential components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal
Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2025
1. Corporate information:
GSL Securities Limited (the Company) is domiciled in India and is incorporated under the
provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 applicable in India. The registered office of the
Company is located at 25 & 26, 1st Floor, AC Market Building, Tardeo, Mumbai – 400 034,
India.
2. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements:
These financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS
prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read together with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, the companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Amendment Rules, 2016 and the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment
Rules, 2017.
Basis of Measurement
The Ind AS Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis using
historical cost convention and on an accrual method of accounting, except for certain financial
assets and liabilities, which have been measured at fair value as described below:
Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value at each reporting date.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value
measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer
the liability takes place either:
1) In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
2) In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or
liability. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the
Company.
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.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s
ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by
selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
Fair value for measurement and/ or disclosure purpose in these financial statements is
determined on such basis, except for share based payment transactions that are within the
scope of Ind AS 102, leasing transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 17, and
measurements that have some similarities to fair value, such as net realisable value in Ind AS
2 or value in use in Ind AS 36.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for
which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant
observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.
----------------Page (81) Break----------------
80
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
Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair
value measurement is unobservable
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and
liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the
level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
For other fair value related disclosures refer note no 18.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
A. Property, Plant and Equipment
The Company has applied Ind AS 16 with retrospective effect for all of its property, plant and
equipment as at the transition date, viz., 1 April 2016.
The initial cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, including import
duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, attributable borrowing cost and any other directly
attributable costs of bringing an asset to working condition and location for its intended use.
It also includes the present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning and removing
of an asset and restoring the site after its use, if the recognition criteria for a provision are met.
Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation,
such as repairs and maintenance, are normally charged to the statements of profit and loss
in the period in which the costs are incurred. Major inspection and overhaul expenditure is
capitalized if the recognition criteria are met.
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the
Company depreciates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Likewise, when a
major inspection is performed, its cost is recognised in the carrying amount of the plant and
equipment as a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and
maintenance costs are recognised in the statement of profit and loss as incurred.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by
comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and
equipment, and are recognized net within other income/other expenses in statement of profit
and loss.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is
derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use
or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the
difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is
included in the statement of profit and loss, when the asset is derecognised.
----------------Page (82) Break----------------
81
The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment
are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
B. Capital work in progress
Assets in the course of construction are capitalized in capital work in progress account. At the
point when an asset is capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the cost
of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment.
Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset are capitalised when the asset is
available for use but incapable of operating at normal levels until the period of commissioning
has been completed. Revenue generated from production during the trial period is credited
to capital work in progress.
C. Depreciation
Depreciation on tangible Assets has been provided on the WDV method over the useful life
of assets in accordance with Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.Depreciation for assets
purchased /sold during a period is proportionately charged. Assets are amortized over their
respective individual estimated useful lives on a written down basis, commencing from the
date the asset is available to the Company for its use.
The estimated useful lives for the fixed assets as per Schedule II of the Act are as follows:
Office Equipment : 5 years
Computer System & Peripherals : 3 years
Furniture & Fixtures : 10 years
Electrical Installations : 10 years
D. Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial
recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and
accumulated impairment losses.
E. Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial
liability or equity instrument of another entity.
(I) Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets
not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial assets are classified in three categories:
Debt instruments and investment in Preference Shares at amortised cost.
Debt instruments and investment in Preference Shares at fair value through profit or loss
(FVTPL).
Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).
(a) Debt instruments and Investment in Preference Shares at amortised cost
----------------Page (83) Break----------------
82
A ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortised cost if both the following conditions are met:
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting
contractual cash flows, and
Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by taking into
account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of
the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included in interest income in the profit or loss.
(b) Debt instruments and investment in Preference Shares at fair value through profit or loss
(FVTPL):
Instruments which are held for trading are classified as at FVTPL. Preference instruments
included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognized
in the P&L.
(c) Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
(FVTOCI):
For all equity instruments other than the ones classified as at FVTPL, the Company may
make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes
in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis.
The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value
changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognized in the OCI. There is no
recycling of the amounts from OCI to P&L, even on sale of investment. However, the
Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of
similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the balance sheet)
when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind-AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for
measurement and recognition of impairment loss on the Trade receivables or any
contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that
are within the scope of Ind-AS 11 and Ind-AS 18. ECL is the difference between all
contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all
the cash flows that the entity expects to receive (i.e., all cash shortfalls), discounted at the
original EIR.
(II) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value
through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, financial guarantee contract payables, or
derivative instruments.
----------------Page (84) Break----------------
83
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and
borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for
trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through
profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the
purpose of repurchasing in the near term.
F. Revenue Recognition :
All incomes and expenditure are accounted for on accrual basis unless otherwise stated.
Dividend on shares and securities is recognized when the right to receive the dividend is
established.
The Company follows the prudential norms for income recognition and provides for / writes
off Non-performing Assets as per the prudential norms prescribed by the Reserve Bank of
India or earlier as ascertained by the management.
Other items of revenue are recognised in accordance with the Ind-AS 18 Revenue.
Accordingly, wherever there are uncertainties in the ascertainment / realisation of income
such as interest from parties (including the financial condition of the party from whom the
same is to be realized), the same are not accounted for.
G. Earnings per Share (EPS) :
The earnings considered in ascertaining the Company’s EPS comprises the net profit after
tax (after providing the post tax effect of any extra ordinary items). The number of shares
used in computing Basic EPS is the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding
during the year.
H. Taxation :
Current Tax: A provision for current income tax is made on the taxable income using the
applicable tax rates and tax laws.
Deferred Tax: Deferred tax arising on account of timing differences and which are capable
of reversal in one or more subsequent periods is recognized using the tax rates and tax laws
that have been enacted or substantively enacted. Deferred tax assets are not recognized
unless there is a virtual certainty with respect to the reversal of the same in future.
Deferred Tax on Comprehensive Income: Deferred tax arising on account of difference
between fair value and cost of Financial Assets which are capable of reversal in one or more
subsequent periods is recognized using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted.
I. Impairment of Assets:
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset
may be impaired. If any indication exists or when annual impairment testing for an asset is
required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable
amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of
----------------Page (85) Break----------------
84
disposal and its value in use. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset,
unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from
other assets or Company‘s assets. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds
its recoverable amount, the asset is considered as impaired and is written down to its
recoverable amount.
Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
J. Provisions and Contingencies :
The company creates 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 obligation. A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible
obligation or a present obligation that probably will not require an outflow of resources or
where a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made.
K. Employee Benefits:
The company has not provided for Gratuity and Leave encashment benefits till 31.03.2025.
The retirement benefits will be debited as and when paid.
L. Foreign Exchange Transactions:-
a) Transactions in Foreign Currency are accounted at the exchange rate prevailing on the
date of Transactions. Exchange fluctuations between the transaction date and the settlement
date in respect of Revenue Transactions are recognized in Profit & Loss Account.
b) All export proceeds not realized at the year-end are restated at the rate prevailing at the
year end. The exchange difference arising there from has been recognized as income /
expenses in the Current Year's Profit & Loss A/c along with underlying transaction.

The management has assessed that the fair value of current and non-current loan and advances,
other non-current asset, trade receivables approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the
short term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of Investments are based on 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:
1) The fair values of the quoted equity shares and mutual funds are based on price quotations
at the reporting date.
2) Investment in Subsidiary and Associate Companies are carried at cost.
3) The fair values of the unquoted debentures, mutual fund and equity shares have been
estimated using Net Asset Value (NAV) as at reporting date.
The valuation of unquoted equity shares requires management to make certain assumptions
about the Model Inputs, including forecast of cash flows, discount rate, credit risk and volatility.
The probabilities of the various estimates within range can be reasonably assessed and are used
in management’s estimate of fair value for these unquoted shares. Wherever, the probability is
low, valuation has been done based on redemption assumptions.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement categorized within Level
3 of the fair value hierarchy together with a quantitative sensitivity analysis as at 31st March,
2024 and 31st March, 2025 are as shown below.
19. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies
