With the increasing use of connected and intelligent devices, it is imperative that devices
are kept up to date with new features and technology changes. Historically, original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have been addressing firmware update requirements
through channels such as dealer networks, service centers, or field service engineers.
As more and more devices become wirelessly connected, over-the-air (OTA) update
of firmware is emerging as a quick and effective solution. Cyient has added a pre-built
solution for managed firmware over-the-air (FOTA) updates to its CyientfIQ innovation
platform. It helps accelerate the development of intelligent and connected products for
its customers across the industry. FOTA’s benefits include greater security, reliability,
resiliency, faster product rollout, and reduced cost of after-sales service support.
The International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) research shows a 40% reduction in
production part defects is possible through a robust Production Part Approval Process
(PPAP) program, including the ability to view risk analysis documents during MRB review
and provide data riven corrective actions. Cyient’s PPAP4Aero solution provides the
infrastructure to connect over 25,000 suppliers in over 50 countries, with a multilingual
application integrated with OEMs and prime aerospace companies. The primary benefit
of PPAP4Aero is improved production quality of parts and significant cost savings by way
of reduced defects. The platform also exceeds the highest security standards to meet
international regulations around data protection.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to Standalone Financial
Statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on Auditing,
as specified under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both issued
by ICAI. 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 with reference to Standalone 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 with
reference to Standalone Financial Statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with
reference to Standalone Financial Statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference
to Standalone Financial Statements, 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 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 with reference to Standalone Financial Statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Standalone Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to Standalone 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 with reference to Standalone Financial
Statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to Standalone Financial
Statements 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 maintained, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to
Standalone Financial Statements and such internal financial controls with reference to Standalone Financial Statements were
operating effectively as at March 31, 2022, 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 issued by the ICAI.

Expected credit loss (ECL):
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Credit risk is
managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers
to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The average credit period is between 60- 90 days.
Before accepting any new customer, the Company uses an internal credit scoring system to assess the potential customer’s
credit quality and defines credit limits for each customer. Limits and scoring attributed to customers are reviewed once a year.
As a practical expedient, the Company uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss of its trade receivables. The provision
matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward
looking estimates. The ECL allowance (or reversal) during the year is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.

benefit plan (the ‘Gratuity Plan’) covering eligible employees. Liabilities with regard to such gratuity plan are determined by

plan is administered by the Company’s own trust which has subscribed to the “Group Gratuity Scheme” of Life Insurance
Corporation of India.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation (DBO), and the related current service cost and past service cost, were
measured using the projected unit credit method.

* Fair value of the investments in tax free and perpetual bonds is ₹ 2,276 (March 31, 2021: Nil)
The management assessed that fair value of cash & cash equivalents and other bank balances, trade receivables, other financial
assets, loans, trade payables, lease liability and other financial liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the
short-term maturities of these instruments, and hence these are carried at amortised cost.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
* The fair values of the unquoted equity shares and CCPS have been estimated using a DCF model. The valuation requires
management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, earnings growth, discount
rate, and probabilities of the various estimates within the range used in management’s estimate of fair value for these
unquoted equity investments.
** The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions with
investment grade credit ratings. Foreign exchange forward contracts are valued using valuation techniques, which employs the
use of market observable inputs. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing using present value
calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and
forward rates, yield curves of the respective currencies, etc. As at March 31, 2022 the marked-to-market value of derivative asset
positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative counterparty default risk. The changes in counterparty
credit risk had insignificant impact on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships.

USD 64 68,000,000 5,245 Sell Rupees
All outstanding forward exchange contracts as at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 have maturity period of less than one year.
Sensitivity analysis:
In respect of the Company’s forward exchange contracts, a 5% increase/decrease in the respective exchange rates of each of the
currencies underlying such contracts would have resulted in:
* an approximately ₹ (577)/ 577 (decrease)/increase in the Company’s other comprehensive income as at March 31, 2022.
* an approximately ₹ (528)/ 528 (decrease)/increase in the Company’s other comprehensive income as at March 31, 2021.
Foreign currency exposure unhedged
The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the volatility of the Company’s
net financial assets (viz. which includes cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables,
other financial liabilities), which are denominated in various foreign currencies (USD, Euro, UK pound sterling, Aus $, SGD, CAD,
Yen etc.)
Investments:
The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have
a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not
have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors or specific country risks.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2022 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.
Other Matter

considered in the Consolidated Financial Statements, in respect of a joint venture, whose financial statements, other financial

venture, and our report in terms of sub-sections (3) of Section 143 of the Act in so far as it relates to the aforesaid joint venture,
is based solely on such unaudited financial statements and other unaudited financial information. In our opinion and according
to the information and explanations given to us by the Management, these financial statements and other financial information
are not material to the Group.
Our opinion above on the Consolidated Financial Statements is not modified in respect of this matter.
3 (xxi) There are no qualifications or adverse remarks in the Companies (Auditors Report) Order (CARO) reports of the Company
and its subsidiary companies included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The report of a joint venture included in
the Consolidated Financial Statements has not been issued by its auditor till the date of our auditor’s report.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Parent Company’s internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated
Financial Statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note and the Standards on
Auditing, specified under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both, issued
by ICAI. 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 with reference to Consolidated 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 with
reference to Consolidated Financial Statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with
reference to Consolidated Financial Statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference
to Consolidated Financial Statements, 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 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
internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated 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 with reference to Consolidated
Financial Statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated
Financial Statements 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 Parent Company and its subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated in India, have maintained in
all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements and such internal
financial controls with reference to Consolidated Financial Statements were operating effectively as at March 31,2022, based on
the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Parent Company considering the essential components of
internal control stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.

the forecast period of 5 years and discount rate of 12.7-15.2%. An analysis of the sensitivity of the computation to a change in key
parameters (operating margin, discount rates and long term average growth rate), based on reasonably probable assumptions,
did not identify any probable scenario in which the recoverable amount of the CGU would decrease below its carrying amount.

Expected credit loss (ECL):
The Group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. Credit risk is managed
through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the
Group grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The average credit period is between 60-90 days. Before accepting
any new customer, the Company uses an internal credit scoring system to assess the potential customer’s credit quality and
defines credit limits for each customer. Limits and scoring attributed to customers are reviewed once a year.
As a practical expedient, the Group uses a provision matrix to determine impairment loss of its trade receivables. The provision
matrix is based on its historically observed default rates over the expected life of the trade receivable and is adjusted for forward
looking estimates. The ECL allowance (or reversal) during the year is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and
loss.

Fixed price:
Fixed price arrangements with customers have defined delivery milestones with agreed scope of work and pricing for each
milestone. Revenue from fixed-price contracts, where the performance obligations are satisfied over time and when there is no
uncertainty as to measurement or collectability of consideration, is recognised as per the ‘percentage-of-completion’ method.
When there is uncertainty as to measurement or ultimate collectability, revenue recognition is postponed until such uncertainty is
resolved. Percentage of completion is determined based on the project costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated
project costs required to complete the project. The input method has been used to measure the progress towards completion
as there is direct relationship between input and productivity. In certain projects, a fixed quantum of service or outputs units is
agreed at a fixed price for a fixed term. In such contracts, revenue is recognised with respect to the actual output achieved till
date as a percentage of total contractual output. Any residual service unutilised by the customer is recognised as revenue on
completion of the term.
The Company classifies the right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or as unbilled revenue. A
receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional upon passage of time. Revenue in excess of invoicing are classified as
contract assets (unbilled revenue) while invoicing in excess of revenue are classified as contract liabilities (unearned revenues).
Contract assets:
During the year ended March 31, 2022, ₹ 2,238 of contract assets as at March 31, 2021 has been reclassified to receivables on
completion of performance obligation. During the year ended March 31, 2021, ₹ 3,957 of contract assets as at March 31, 2020
has been reclassified to receivables on completion of performance obligation. During the year, contract assets of ₹ Nil (2020-21:
₹ 350) has been impaired.
Contract liabilities:
During the year ended March 31, 2022 the Company recognized revenue of ₹ 310 arising from contract liabilities as at March
31, 2021. During the year ended March 31, 2021 the Company recognized revenue of ₹ 154 arising from contract liabilities as at
March 31, 2020.
As at March 31, 2022, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, other than
those meeting the exclusion criteria above, was ₹ 38,175 of which approximately 70% is expected to be recognized as revenues
within one year, and the remainder thereafter. This includes contracts, with a substantive enforceable termination penalty if the
contract is terminated without cause by the customer, based on an overall assessment of the contract carried out at the time of
inception. Historically, customers have not terminated contracts without cause.
As at March 31, 2021, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, other than
those meeting the exclusion criteria above, was ₹ 37,152 of which approximately 95% is expected to be recognized as revenues
within one year, and the remainder thereafter. This includes contracts, with a substantive enforceable termination penalty if the
contract is terminated without cause by the customer, based on an overall assessment of the contract carried out at the time of
inception. Historically, customers have not terminated contracts without cause.

There have been no transfers among Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the previous year.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:
* The fair values of the unquoted equity, debt, CCPS and preferred instruments, liability towards acquisition of business
and gross obligation liability to acquire non-controlling interests have been estimated using a DCF model. The valuation
requires management to make certain assumptions about the model inputs, including forecast cash flows, discount rate,
and probabilities of the various estimates within the range used in management’s estimate of fair value for these unquoted
equity, preferred and debt investments.
** The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, principally financial institutions with
investment grade credit ratings. Foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps are valued using valuation
techniques, which employs the use of market observable inputs. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include
forward pricing using present value calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including the credit quality of
counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, yield curves of the respective currencies, etc. As at March 31,
2021 the mark-to-market value of derivative asset positions is net of a credit valuation adjustment attributable to derivative
counterparty default risk. The changes in counterparty credit risk had insignificant impact on the hedge effectiveness
assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships.

All outstanding forward exchange contracts as at March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 have balance maturity period of less than

Sensitivity analysis:
IIn respect of the Company’s forward contracts, a 5% increase/decrease in the respective exchange rates of each of the currencies
underlying such contracts would have resulted in:
* an approximately ₹ (577)/ 577 (decrease)/increase in the Company’s other comprehensive income as at March 31, 2022.
* an approximately ₹ (528)/ 528 (decrease)/increase in the Company’s other comprehensive income as at March 31, 2021.
Unhedged foreign currency exposure
The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the volatality of the Group’s net
financial assets (which includes cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other financial assets, trade payables, other financial
liabilities), which are denominated in various foreign currencies (viz. USD, Euro, UK pound sterling, Aus $, SGD, CAD, Yen etc.).

(f) One of the former employee of the Company filed a legal suit to recover amount from a party in his personal capacity on
behalf of Certon Software Inc., (merged with Cyient Inc. on November 1, 2018). The Company has taken proactive steps to
mitigate any potential risks that may arise out of this action. Pending legal resolution of the dispute, no provision has been
recognised in the consolidated financial statements.
Subsequently, certain civil class action antitrust lawsuits were filed in a U.S. District Court against such subsidiary and its
employee, amongst various other corporate and individual defendants. The matters in each of the civil lawsuits arise from the
assertions in the antitrust suit mentioned above. We expect the civil suits will be consolidated into an amended civil complaint

the Company’s operations, financial condition, or liquidity.
