Opinion
We have audited the accompanying Ind AS financial statements of DEN Malayalam Telenet Private Limited
(“the Company”) which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss
(including the Comprehensive Income), the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for
the year then ended, and notes to financial statements including a summary of the significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “ financial statements”).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid
Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true
and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including the Ind AS, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2024 and its profit (financial performance including Other
Comprehensive Income) and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Ind AS Financial statements 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 Ind AS financial statements section of our report. We are
independent of the Company in accordance of 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 financial
statements under the provision of the Act and the Rules there under, 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 Ind AS
financial statements.
Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditors’ Report thereon
The Company’s Management and 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 conclusion 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 Standalone Financial
Statements
The Company’s Management and 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 state of
affairs (financial position), profit/loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the
Den Malayalam Telenet Private Limited | 3
Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian
Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 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 financial statements 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 the 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 is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
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.
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 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 and Board of Directors.
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 misstatements 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 misstatements 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.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of
most significance in the audit of the 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.

ANNEXURE B
TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT OF EVEN DATE ON THE IND AS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OF DEN MALAYALAM TELENET PRIVATE LIMITED
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under clause (i) of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)
We have audited the Internal Financial Controls over financial reporting of DEN Malayalam Telenet Private
Limited (“the Company”) as of 31 March 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the Ind AS financial statements of
the Company for the year ended on the date.
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 the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Reporting issued by
the “Institute of Chartered Accountants of India”. 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 Companies Act,2013.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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, 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, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. 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 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
judgement, including the assessment of the risk 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.
A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting 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
Den Malayalam Telenet Private Limited | 11
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 authorizations of management and
directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitation 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 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.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respect, an adequate internal financial controls system over
financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31
March 2024, based on, “the internal control over financial reporting criteria 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 ofIndia”

1. Background
DEN Malayalam Telenet Private Limited is a Company incorporated in India on 29th Jan 2004. The Company is primarily engaged in providing
cable television distribution and other related services. It is a subsidiary of Futustric Media & Entertainment Ltd with effect from 05-08-2022
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Ind As requires the Management to make estimates and assumptions
considered in the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) and the reported income and expenses during
the year. The Management believes that the estimates used in preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable.
Future results could differ due to these estimates and the differences between the actual results and the estimates are recognized in the
periods in which the results are known / materialize.
2.03 Cash and cash equivalents (for purpose of Cash Flow Statement)
Cash comprises cash on hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term balances (with an original maturity of
three months or less from the date of acquisition) and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash
and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
Cash flows are reported using indirect method, whereby Profit before tax reported under statement of profit/ (loss) is adjusted for the
effects of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from
operating, investing and financing activities of the Company are segregated based on available information.
Intangible assets acquired in business combinations are stated at fair value as determined by the management of the Company on the
basis of valuation by expert valuers, less accumulated amortization. The estimated useful life of the intangible assets and the
amortization period are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the amortization period is revised to reflect the changed pattern, if
any.
Goodwill on acquisition is included in intangible assets is not amortized but it is tested for impairment annually. The goodwill is carried at
cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its estimated residual value.
Depreciation on tangible fixed assets has been provided on the straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the
Companies Act, 2013 except in respect of the following categories of assets, in whose case the life of the assets has been assessed as
under based on technical advice, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions
of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.
The management believes that useful lives as given above represent the period over which management expects to use these assets.
Depreciation methods, useful life's and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted, if appropriate
Den Malayalam Telenet Private Limited | 17
Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life on straight line method as follows:
Revenue is measured at the fare value of consideration received or receivable. Amount disclosed as revenue are net of return, trade
allowances, rebates, service taxes and amount collected on behalf of third parties.
The company recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will
flow to the entity and specific criteria have been mapped for each of the company's activities as described below. The company bases its
estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transection and specifics of each arrangements.
1. Service revenue comprises subscription income from digital and analog subscribers, placement of channels, advertisement
revenue, fees for rendering management, technical and consultancy services and other related services. Income from services is
recognized based on percentage completion method as per terms of the contract with the customer. Period based services are
accrued and recognized pro-rata over the contractual period.
2. Activation fees on Set top boxes (STBs) is recognized on activation of boxes over the life of the STBs. Activation fees received in
advance and deferred over the period of life of the STB has been considered as deferred revenue in current and non-current
liabilities at respective places.
3. Amounts billed for services in accordance with contractual terms but where revenue is not recognized, have been classified as
advance billing and disclosed under current liabilities.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the
amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and
at the effective interest rate applicable,. Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder's right to receive
payment has been established (provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of
income can be measured reliably).
The functional currency for the Company is INR determined as the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates.
For the Company, the functional currency is the local currency of the country in which it operates, i.e. INR which is also presentation
currency of the company.
In preparing the financial statements the Company, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign
currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period,
monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair
value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
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.
The company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities when it becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
All financial assets and liabilities 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. Transaction costs that are directly attributable
to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities, that are not at fair value through profit or loss, are added to the fair
value on initial recognition. Regular way purchase and sale of financial assets are accounted for at trade date.
Den Malayalam Telenet Private Limited | 18
A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortised cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold the asset in
order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. The losses arising at
the time of subsequent measurement are recognising in the statement of profit or loss.
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a business model whose
objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and the contractual terms of the financial asset
give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Further,
in cases where the company has made an irrevocable election based on its business model, for its investments which are classified
as equity instruments, the subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are subsequently fair valued through profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for financial liabilities
recognized in a business combination which is subsequently measured at fair value through profit and loss. For trade and other
payables maturing within one year from the balance sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of
these instruments
If financial assets is primarily derecognized when the right to receive the cash flows from the assets has expired or the company has
transferred the rights to receive cash flows from the assets. IF financial liabilities is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is
discharged or cancelled or expired.
In accordance with IND AS 109, the company applies expected credit loss method (ECL) for measurement and recognition impairment
loss on the financial assets that are debt instruments and trade receivables.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable
legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities
simultaneously.
Employee benefits include employee state insurance scheme, gratuity fund and compensated absences.
The Company's contribution employee state insurance scheme are considered as defined contribution plans and are charged as an
expense based on the amount of contribution required to be made and when services are rendered by the employees. The company
pays provident fund contributions to publically administered provident funds as per local regulations. The company has no further
payment obligations once the contributions has been paid. The contribution accounted for as defined contribution plans and are
recognised as employee benefits expenses when they are due.
For defined benefit plans in the form of gratuity, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit method,
with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Measurement of the net defined benefit liability, which
comprises actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. Net interest expense (income) on
the net defined liability (assets) is computed by applying the discount rate, used to measure the net defined liability (asset), to the net
defined liability (asset) at the start of the financial year after taking into account any changes as a result of contribution and benefit
payments during the year. Past service cost is recognised immediately to the extent that the benefits are already vested and
otherwise is amortised on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. The retirement benefit
obligation recognised in the Balance Sheet represents the present value of the defined benefit obligation as adjusted for unrecognized
past service cost, as reduced by the fair value of scheme assets. Any asset resulting from this calculation is limited to past service
cost, plus the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the schemes.
Den Malayalam Telenet Private Limited | 19
The benefits are using the market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the related
obligation.
Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in profit & Loss. The
Obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement
for at least twelve months after the reporting period, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur.
2.12 Leases
Where the Company as a lessor leases assets under finance leases, such amounts are recognised as receivables at an amount equal to
the net investment in the lease and the finance income is recognised based on a constant rate of return on the outstanding net
investment. Assets leased by the Company in its capacity as a lessee, where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership vest in
the Company are classified as finance leases. Such leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at the lower of the fair value and
the present value of the minimum lease payments and a liability is created for an equivalent amount. Each lease rental paid is allocated
between the liability and the interest cost so as to obtain a constant periodic rate of interest on the outstanding liability for each year.
Lease arrangements where the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an asset substantially vest with the lessor are recognised as
operating leases.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement
of profit and loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or
deductible. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in the equity is recognised in equity and not in statement of profit and
loss." The Company current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting
period.
2.14.2 Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements
and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit using balance sheet approach. Deferred tax liabilities are
generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary
differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can
be utilised. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other
than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In
addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax
relating to items recognised in other comprehensive income and directly in equity is recognised in correlation to the underlying
transaction."

DEN MALAYALAM TELENET PRIVATE LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st March, 2024
Deferred Tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the
reporting period. Further the carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is
no longer probable that sufficient profit will be available
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) paid in accordance with the tax laws, which gives future economic benefits in the form of adjustment to
future income tax liability, is considered as an asset if there is convincing evidence that the Company will pay normal income tax.
Accordingly, MAT is recognised as an asset in the Balance Sheet when it is highly probable that future economic benefit associated with
it will flow to the Company.
The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the
credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has
not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount
equal to 12-month expected credit losses.
When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Company uses
the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of
expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as
at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers
reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit
risk since initial recognition.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether
there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the
asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable
amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
When a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash-generating
units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest Company of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation
basis can be identified.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually,
and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future
cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of
the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss,
unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised
estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have
been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an
impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the
reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.
A provision is recognised if as a result of a past event the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated
reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by
discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the
risks specific to the liability. Contingent Liabilities are not recognised but are disclosed in the notes. Contingent Assets are not recognised
but disclosed in the Financial Statements when economic inflow is probable.
Share issue expenses are adjusted against the Securities Premium Account as permissible under Section 52 of the Companies Act,
2013, to the extent any balance is available for utilisation in the Securities Premium Account. Share issue expenses in excess of the
balance in the Securities Premium Account, if any is expensed in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Insurance claims are accounted for on the basis of claims admitted / expected to be admitted and to the extent that the amount
recoverable can be measured reliably and it is reasonable to expect ultimate collection.

Contingent liabilities
Assessment of whether outflow embodying economic benefits is probable, possible or remote.
The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting
period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year.
The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment at the end of each reporting period. There is no such
change in the useful life of the assets.
In estimating the fair value of an asset or liability, the Company uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where level 1
inputs are not available, the Company engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation. The management works closely with
qualified external valuers to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model.
Revenue recognition
See note 2 above
Classification of Leases
The Company evaluates if an arrangement qualifies to be a lease as per the requirements of Ind AS 116. Identification of a lease
requires significant judgement. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing the lease term (including anticipated renewals)
and the applicable discount rate.
The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with both periods covered by an options to
extend the lease if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that options; and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if
the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise that options. In assessing whether the company is reasonably certain to exercise an
option to extend a lease, or not to exercise an option to terminate a lease, it considers all relevant facts and circumstances that crate an
economic incentive for the Company to exercise the option to extend the lease, or not to exercise the option to terminate the lease. The
Company revises the lease term if there is a change in the non-cancellable period of a lease. The discount rate is generally based on the
incremental borrowing rate specific to the lease being evaluated or for a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics.
Based on the nature of 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.

b) The Group has used a practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix. The
provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information. The expected credit loss
allowance is based on the ageing of the days the receivables are due and the rates as given in the provision matrix. The provision matrix at the
end of the reporting period is as follows:
Ageing Expected credit loss (%)
0 - 90 days 0.1% - 18%
91 - 180 days 1% - 50%
180 days and above 50% - 100%
d) The concentration of credit risk is limited due to the fact that the customer base is large.
