A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
While the operating environment continues to
evolve, our long-term outlook remains positive.
Rising consumer aspiration, premiumisation
trends, and increasing demand for
global spirits continue to strengthen
the foundation of our business.
Dear Stakeholders
Your trust has been a cornerstone of our journey
and growth.
When I reflect on this journey, from a small
general store in Mumbai in 1981 to the Chairman
of a publicly listed company, I am reminded that
every great endeavour begins with a single step
taken with conviction.
I arrived in Mumbai from Meghpar, a small village
in Gujarat’s Kutch district, with little more than a
loan from my elder brother and an unwavering
belief in hard work. That loan became a general
store, the general store became a supermarket,
and the relationships we built, with embassies,
with consumers, with partners who trusted
us, opened the door to the world of premium
international spirits. From that foundation,
Monika Alcobev was born.
Founded in 2015 and formally incorporated in
2022, we have grown to become India’s largest
independent importer in the wines and spirits
segment, representing over 100 global brand
labels, operating across 24 states and 170+ cities,
and supported by a team of more than 250
dedicated professionals.
FY2025–26 was a year that validated everything
we have built. India recorded real GDP growth of
7.4% during FY2025–26, reaffirming its status as
the fastest-growing major economy for the fourth
consecutive year. Private Final Consumption
Expenditure grew 7.0%, reaching 61.5% of GDP
— the highest since 2012 — supported by rising
real incomes, stable employment, and strong
rural and urban demand. This is deeply relevant
to the business we are in. As incomes rise, as
aspirations grow, and as a new generation of
consumers seeks quality, authenticity, and
global brand experiences, the premium alcobev
market stands to benefit enormously. Looking
ahead, the IMF has projected India’s GDP growth
at 6.4% for FY2026–27 — a continued signal of
the structural strength of the Indian economy
and the long-term opportunity it presents for
businesses like ours.
India’s premiumisation story is not a passing
trend. It is a generational shift. Younger, more
affluent, and more brand-conscious consumers
are redefining what they drink, where they drink
it, and why.
Under the leadership of my son and Managing
Director, Mr. Kunal Patel, Monika Alcobev has
positioned itself precisely at the intersection of
this shift — building a platform that not only
imports and distributes premium brands, but
actively builds them within India’s complex and
diverse market. Our presence across HORECA,
retail, and travel retail channels — extending
beyond India to the Maldives, Nepal, Sri Lanka,
and Bangladesh — reflects the depth and scale
of what this team has built.
This year also marked our successful listing on
the BSE SME Platform in July 2025 — the first
company in our segment to do so. The IPO was
oversubscribed 4.1 times, raising ₹165.63 crore.
That response from the market was deeply
humbling, and it carries with it a responsibility
that we take seriously, to our shareholders, our
partners, and to the communities in which we
operate.
We remain committed to responsible and
sustainable growth. Through our CSR initiatives,
including our continued support for para
sports in Maharashtra and community welfare
programmes in Gujarat through the Jivan Jyot
Foundation, we strive to ensure that our success
contributes meaningfully to society.
As I look ahead, I do so with confidence. The
foundation is strong, the partnerships are
enduring, and the opportunity is vast. On behalf
of the Board, I extend my deepest gratitude
to every shareholder, partner, employee, and
well-wisher who has been part of this story. We
will continue to move forward — with purpose,
with integrity, and with the same belief that has
guided us from the very beginning.
Warm regards,
Mr. Bhimji Nanji Patel
Chairman,
Monika Alcobev Limited

Crafting a Legacy
A MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR
Dear Stakeholders
We deeply value the trust you have placed in us.
FY2025–26 was a year of meaningful progress,
for Monika Alcobev, for India’s premium alcobev
industry, and for the broader global spirits
market.
The global spirits industry continued its
expansion through 2025–26, driven by the
sustained premiumisation of consumer
preferences across both established and
emerging markets. The premium and super-
premium spirits segment has been consistently
outpacing overall industry growth, as consumers
across geographies increasingly prioritise quality,
authenticity, and brand experience. Within
this global landscape, India is fast emerging
as one of the most significant growth markets
for imported premium alcobev. Several global
brand owners are now actively viewing India as a
priority market, creating fresh opportunities for
portfolio expansion and long term partnerships,
a shift that we have been anticipating and
positioning for.
India’s economic momentum continues to
provide a strong foundation for this growth.
Rising disposable incomes, a growing affluent
middle class, and a younger, more brand-
conscious urban population are collectively
driving demand for premium and experiential
alcobev. The shift toward premiumisation
is no longer a trend, it is a structural reality.
Consumers across Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities are more
experimental, more informed, and increasingly
drawn to global categories and brand stories.
This is the opportunity that defines our business.
Against this backdrop, we delivered strong
financial results in FY2025–26. Revenue from
Despite evolving market dynamics, the
fundamentals of our business remain strong.
Consumers continue to gravitate toward
premium experiences, authentic global brands,
and quality-driven choices, reinforcing our
confidence in the long-term growth of
India’s premium alcobev market.
operations reached ₹301.16 crore, growing 27.53%
over the previous year, while Profit After Tax
rose 39.07% to ₹32.14 crore. Growth was broad-
based, led by strong demand across premium
tequila and agave spirits, Irish whiskey, Japanese
whisky, gin, imported wines, and liqueurs, a
performance that reflects the balance and
resilience of our portfolio. This was also our first
full year as a publicly listed entity, following our
landmark SME IPO in July 2025, the first in our
segment which was oversubscribed 4.1 times
and raised ₹165.63 crore.
Our approach to portfolio building is deliberate
and forward-looking. We aim to stay ahead
of where the consumer is going, rather than
where the market has been. The introduction of
Licor 43 and Jinro Soju this year reflects exactly
this thinking. Both are global category leaders
supported by strong cultural momentum. The
growing influence of Korean culture, through
K-pop, K-drama, and Korean cuisine, has created
a genuine affinity for Korean products among
India’s younger urban audiences. Bringing Jinro,
the world’s best-selling spirit, to India was a
direct and timely response to this cultural shift.
At the same time, Licor 43 expands our liqueur
offerings with one of Europe’s most celebrated
spirits, further deepening the breadth of our
premium portfolio.
India is a complex, highly regulated, and
fragmented market. What differentiates us is
the platform we have built, combining deep
regulatory expertise, strong execution across
24 states and over 170 cities, and long-standing
trade relationships built on trust and consistency.
We see ourselves as brand builders first. This
mindset allows us to scale global brands while
preserving their positioning, integrity, and long-
term consumer equity. Our credit rating upgrade
by Acuite Ratings, with our long-term rating
improving to ACUITE BBB Stable and short-
term rating to ACUITE A3+, further reflects the
financial discipline and governance standards
we have embedded as a listed entity.
As we move into FY2026–27, our priorities
remain clear. We will continue to deepen our
portfolio with the right global brands, expand
our geographic footprint across India and
the broader South Asian subcontinent, and
invest in the capabilities that differentiate our
platform. Premiumisation, portfolio expansion,
and operational efficiency will remain the
cornerstones of our strategy. We are building
for the long term — with discipline, intent, and
a clear belief in the opportunity that India’s
premium alcobev market represents.
On behalf of the Board and the entire Monika
Alcobev team, I extend my sincere gratitude
to our shareholders, global brand partners,
trade partners, and employees for their
continued trust and support. We remain
committed to building a business that is
resilient, responsible, and future-ready, one
that creates sustainable and meaningful value
for all our stakeholders in the years ahead.
Warm regards,
Kunal Patel
Managing Director,
Monika Alcobev Limited

Management Discussion
and Analysis
Global Economic:
The global economy in FY 2025–26
demonstrated resilience amid persistent
geopolitical tensions and evolving
monetary policy dynamics. According
to estimates from the International
Monetary Fund, global GDP growth
remained steady at approximately 3.0%–
3.1%, with emerging markets continuing
to outperform advanced economies.
(Source: IMF World Economic Outlook,
2025)
However, the outlook remains subject
to heightened uncertainty. The recent
escalation of conflict in the Middle
East has reintroduced volatility into
global markets, exerting upward
pressure on commodity prices,
reinforcing inflationary expectations,
and tightening financial conditions.
Notwithstanding these challenges,
under the assumption of a contained
conflict, global growth is projected to
remain stable at around 3.1% in 2026, with
a modest improvement to 3.2% in 2027.
(Source: IMF World Economic Outlook,
2025)
Inflationary pressures have moderated
across most major economies due
to sustained policy interventions,
supporting gradual recovery in real
incomes and consumer sentiment.
Demand in premium discretionary
segments has remained relatively
resilient, reflecting a shift toward value-
driven consumption. (Source: IMF World
Economic Outlook, 2025)
Within this backdrop, the global
alcoholic beverages industry continues
to exhibit steady value growth, primarily
driven by premiumisation trends.
While overall volume growth remains
moderate, consumers are increasingly
gravitating toward higher-quality and
premium offerings, supporting margin
expansion across key markets. (Source:
IWSR Global Beverage Alcohol Trends
Report, 2025)
Indian Economic:
India continued to be one of the fastest-
growing major economies globally
during FY 2025–26. As per estimates
from the International Monetary Fund
and the World Bank, GDP growth
remained robust in the range of ~6.4%–
6.6%, significantly outpacing most
advanced and emerging economies.
(Source: IMF World Economic Outlook,
2025; World Bank India Development
Update, 2025)
Economic growth was primarily
driven by resilient domestic
consumption, sustained government-
led infrastructure investments, and
favourable demographic trends. Policy
continuity, digital transformation, and
increasing formalisation of the economy
further supported macroeconomic
stability and growth momentum.
(Source: Economic Survey of India
2025; World Bank India Development
Update, 2025)
Urban consumption trends remained
strong, particularly across discretionary
and lifestyle-oriented categories. Rising
disposable incomes and aspirational
consumption patterns are driving
demand for premium and imported
products, including alcoholic beverages.
This shift is especially pronounced

among younger and affluent urban
consumers, reflecting evolving
preferences toward quality, brand
experience, and global consumption
standards.
Within this context, the alcoholic
beverages sector in India is witnessing a
gradual premiumisation trend. Demand
for higher-value and imported products
continues to grow at a faster pace
compared to mass-market segments,
supported by improving purchasing
power and increased exposure to
international brands and experiences.
Overall, India’s strong macroeconomic
fundamentals and evolving
consumption landscape position it as
a high-potential market for sustained
growth in premium and imported
alcoholic beverages. (Source: IMF World
Economic Outlook, 2025)
Global Industry Outlook:
The global alcoholic beverages industry
experienced a phase of moderation
during FY 2025, primarily due to
inflationary pressures and subdued
demand in key mature markets. While
volume growth remained constrained,
the industry is expected to stabilise and
return to low single-digit value growth
in FY 2025–26.
Key global trends include selective
premiumisation, evolving consumption
patterns favouring quality over quantity,
and continued expansion of emerging
categories such as ready-to-drink
beverages and craft spirits. Over the
medium term, demand for premium
and differentiated offerings is expected

a defining trend, with consumers
increasingly shifting from mass-
market products to premium and
super-premium offerings. This trend
is particularly pronounced in metro
and tier-1 markets, where demand
for imported and globally recognised
brands is witnessing strong growth.
The imported alcobev segment in India
is expected to outperform the overall
industry, driven by premiumisation,
rising consumer aspiration, and
increasing preference for globally
recognised brands. Demand for
premium and super-premium spirits
such as Scotch whisky, gin, tequila,
and other niche categories continues
to witness strong growth, particularly
across urban and metro markets.
For the Company, the outlook
remains favourable, supported by its
distribution-led business model and
focus on premium portfolio curation.
The Company is well positioned to
benefit from:
Expansion of exclusive and
premium brand partnerships
Increasing engagement with
global brand owners seeking
presence in India
`
Strong demand for imported
products across key consumption
centres
Higher realisations and margin
enhancement driven by premium
product mix
The Company’s established distribution
network, regulatory expertise, and
execution capabilities provide a
competitive advantage in navigating
the complex operating environment
and scaling premium brands.
Overall, while the global alcobev
industry is expected to stabilise, India
is projected to remain a structurally
strong, high-growth market. The
premium and imported segments are
expected to significantly outperform
the broader industry, positioning the
Company favourably to deliver sustained
growth through portfolio expansion,
brand building, and disciplined market
execution.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial
statements of Monika Alcobev Limited (“the
Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2026, the Statement of Profit and
Loss, the Cash Flow Statement for the year then
ended, and notes to the financial statements,
including a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to
us, the aforesaid financial statements give the
information required by the Companies Act, 2013,
as amended (“the Act”) in the manner so required
and give a true and fair view in conformity with
the
Accounting Standards prescribed under
section 133 of the Act read with the Companies
(Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021, as amended
(“Accounting Standards”)
and other accounting
principles generally accepted in India, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,
2026, and its profit and its cash flow for the year
ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the financial
statements in accordance with the Standards
on Auditing specified (SAs) 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
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 (ICAI) together
with the ethical requirements that are relevant
to our audit of the financial statements under
the provisions of the Act and the Rules made
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 on the financial statements.
Key Audit Matter
Key audit matters are those matters that, in
our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial
statements for the financial year ended March
31, 2026. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the financial statements
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon,
and we do not provide a separate opinion on
these matters. For the matter stated below,
our description of how our audit addressed the
matter is provided in that context.

Key Audit MattersAuditor’s Responses
1.Revenue Recognition:
1. Revenue is recognized when control
of goods is transferred, which is
usually upon transfer of products to
the customer/ sub-distributors. In the
alcobev industry, complex state-specific
regulations, excise duty structures, and
varied contractual terms make revenue
recognition critical and judgmental.
Principal audit procedures :
Our audit procedures relating to the revenue
recognition, included the following, among
others:
• We obtained an understanding, evaluated
the design and tested the operating
effectiveness of internal controls relating to
revenue recognition.
88

BRANDS TO INDIA

Corporate

Reports
Financial
Statements
89
2. Excise duties are significant and
embedded in the sales price. The
classification between gross revenue and
excise liability requires proper disclosure
and affects margin presentation.
3. There is a risk of revenue being recorded
in an incorrect period around year-end
(either prematurely or deferred) (cut-
off), impacting true and fair view.
• Evaluated the appropriateness of the
Company’s accounting policies with respect
to revenue recognition and their compliance
with “AS 9 Revenue Recognition”.
• Tested operating effectiveness of internal
controls related to purchase orders/
agreements, dispatch, invoicing, and
recording of sales.
• Performed substantive procedures on a
sample basis including matching invoices
and dispatch documentation.
• Verified excise duty treatment by reconciling
with challans paid for domestic sales and
BOE copy/annexure for bond to bond transfer
for respective state excise departments.
• Checked disclosures in the financial
statements ensuring correct segregation of
revenue and excise components.
• Conducted cut-off testing for sales recorded
during the last week of the financial year and
the first week of the next year.
• Matched sales entries with dispatch and
delivery documents.
• We performed analytical procedures to
evaluate trends in excise incidence versus
sales volume on which excise is applicable.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 42 (xxii) to the financial
statements which describes the Company’s
reassessment of its eligibility to be taxed under
Section 115BAB of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (“the
Act”) in place of Section 115BAA adopted in the
previous year, based on a legal opinion obtained
during the year.
The aforesaid reassessment has been treated
as a change in accounting estimate in
accordance with the AS-5,”Net Profit or Loss for
the Period, Prior Period Items, and Changes in
Accounting Policies” and has been accounted
for prospectively.
As stated in the said note, the matter involves
interpretation of the relevant provisions of
the Income-tax Act, 1961, including conditions
relating to eligibility and the irrevocability of
options exercised as per the concessional tax
regimes under the Act.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this
matter.
Other Information
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible
for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the
Company’s Annual report but does not include
the financial statements and our auditor’s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not
cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance concl
usion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial
statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether
the other information is materially inconsistent
with the 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 that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Financial
Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible
for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act
with respect to the preparation of these financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the
financial position, financial performance, and
cash flows of the Company in accordance with
the accounting principles generally accepted
in India, including the accounting standards
specified under section 133 of the Act read with the
Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2021.
This responsibility also includes maintenance
of adequate accounting records in accordance
with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding
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 financial statement that give a true and fair
view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the
management and Board of Directors are
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 Board of Directors 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
Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the 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 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 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.

• Obtaining an understanding of internal
control relevant to the audit in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. Under the section 143(3)(i) of
the Act, we are also responsible for expressing
our opinion on whether the Company has
adequate internal financial controls with
reference to financial statements in place and
the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures
made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the
management and Board of Directors use
of the going concern basis of accounting in
preparation of financial statements 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 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 financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the
financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
• Materiality is the magnitude of misstatement
in the financial statements that, individually
or in aggregate, makes it probable that
the economic decisions of a reasonably
knowledgeable user of the 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
misstatement in the 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.

Report on the internal financial controls with
reference to the aforesaid financial statements
under Clause (i) of the sub-section 3 of section
143 of the Companies Act, 2013
Opinion
We have audited the internal financial controls
over financial reporting with reference to financial
statements of Monika Alcobev Limited (“the
Company”) as of March 31, 2026 in conjunction
with our audit of the financial statements of the
Company for the year ended on that date.
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material
respects, adequate internal financial controls
with reference to financial statements and
such internal financial controls were operating
effectively as at March 31, 2026, based on the
financial controls established by the Company
considering the essential components of internal
control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit
of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India (the “ Guidance Note”).
Management and Board of Directors’
Responsibilities for Internal Financial Controls
The Company’s Management and the Board of
Directors are responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal financial controls with
reference to the financial statements based on the
internal control over financial reporting criteria
established by the Company considering the
essential components of internal control stated
in the Guidance. These responsibilities include
the design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls that
were operating effectively for ensuring the
orderly and efficient conduct of its business,
including adherence to company’s policies, the
safeguarding of its 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.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
the Company’s internal financial controls over
financial reporting with reference to the financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note
and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI
and deemed to be prescribed under section
143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent
applicable to an audit of internal financial controls
with reference to the financial statements. Those
Standards and the Guidance Note require that
we comply with ethical requirements and plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether adequate internal
financial controls over financial reporting with
reference to the financial statements was
established and maintained and if such controls
operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures 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 control based on the assessed risk. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
ANNEXURE – B TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
of Monika Alcobev Limited for the year ended March 31, 2026
(Referred to in paragraph 2(f) under ‘Report on Other Legal and Regulatory
Requirements’ section of our report on even date)
judgment, including the assessment of the
risks of material misstatement of the 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 with reference to the financial
statements.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over
Financial Reporting
A company’s internal financial control over
financial reporting with reference to the
financial statements is a process designed
to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. A company’s internal
financial control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (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 transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with 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 financial
statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial
Controls over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal
financial controls over financial reporting
with reference to the financial statements,
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 controls 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.

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will
be confirmed by the occurrence or nonoccurrence of one or more uncertain future events
beyond the control of the Company or a present obligation that is not recognized because
it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. A
contingent liability also arises in extremely rare cases where there is a liability that cannot be
recognized because it cannot be measured reliably and are disclosed by way of notes.
Contingent assets are neither provided nor disclosed in the financial statements.
(10) Earnings per share
The Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with the requirements prescribed in
Accounting Standard 20,"Earnings Per Share ".
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net profit after tax by the weighted
average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
is computed by dividing the profit after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares
considered for deriving basic earnings per share and also the weighted average number of
equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity
shares.
If the number of equity or potential equity shares outstanding increases as a result of a
bonus issue or share split or decreases as a result of a reverse share split (consolidation of
shares), the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is adjusted for all the periods
presented. If these changes occur after the balance sheet date but before the date on which
the financial statements are approved by the board of directors, the per share calculations
for those financial statements and any prior period financial statements presented is based
on the new number of shares.

3 "Cash Flow Statements" specified under section 133 of Companies Act, 2013 read with
Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of
transactions of a non- cash nature, any deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash
receipts or payments and item of income or expenses associated with investing or financing
cash flows. The cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities are segregated.
(12) Cash and Cash equivalents

considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of
three months or less and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash to be cash
equivalents.
(13) Segment Information

The Company is a lessee in all its lease arrangements. The Company has entered into lease
contracts for office premises, warehouses and guest houses.
(a) Operating Leases
Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are
classified as operating leases. The Company’s lease arrangements are primarily short-
term and cancellable in nature, generally having a tenure of 11 months.
Lease rentals under operating leases are recognised as an expense in the Statement
of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless the payments are
structured to increase in line with expected general inflation so as to compensate for the
lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases.
(b) Finance Leases
Leases that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of
the leased asset to the Company are classified as finance leases. Assets acquired under
finance leases are recognised at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value
of the asset and the present value of minimum lease payments, with a corresponding
liability recognised for the lease obligation.
Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease
liability so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest on the outstanding balance.
Finance charges are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
All the lease contracts entered into by the Company are operating leases.
Lease Modifications and Renewals
Lease arrangements are periodically reviewed for renewals and modifications. Any
changes are accounted for in accordance with the substance of the revised arrangement.
Disclosures
Leases are disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the AS-19.
(16) Operating cycle
Based on the nature of products / activities of the Company and the normal time between
acquisition of assets and their realization in cash or cash equivalents, the Company has
determined its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of classification of its assets and
liabilities as current and non- current.
(17) Events after the Reporting period
Adjusting events (providing additional evidence of conditions existing at the Balance Sheet
date) are accounted for in the financial statements.
Non-adjusting events (significant events occuring after Balance Sheet date) are disclosed in
the notes to accounts.

NOTE 40: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS EXPENSE
The Company operates one post-employment defined benefit plan that provides gratuity. The gratuity
plan entitles an employee, who has rendered at least five years of continuous service, to receive one-
half month’s salary for each year of completed service at the time of retirement. In case of employees
completing longer service periods, the Company’s unfunded scheme is more favourable as compared
to the obligation under Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972/The Code of Social Security, 2020 (w.e.f November
21, 2025).
On November 21, 2025, the Government of India notified the four Labour Codes - the Code on Wages,
2019, the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the Code on Social Security, 2020 and the Occupational
Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 - consolidating 29 existing labour laws. The Ministry
of labour & Employment published draft Central Rules and FAQs to enable assessment of the financial
impact due to changes in regulations. The Company has assessed for incremental impact of these
changes on the basis of the best information available, consistent with the guidance provided by
the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. There is no incremental impact on gratuity which
is required to be provided In the financial results due to change in ‘Wages’ definition. The Company
continues to monitor the finalisation of Central / State Rules and clarifications from the Government
on other aspects of the Labour Code and would provide appropriate accounting effect on the basis of
such developments as and when notified.
