Credit risk:

contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers and investment securities.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consists of trade receivables, investments,
loans, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of
the financial assets. By their nature, all such financial assets involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by
counterparties.
The Company periodically assesses the credit quality of the counterparties by taking into account their financial position, past
experience, ageing of accounts receivables and any other factor determined by individual characteristic of the counterparty.
The maximum amount of exposure to credit was as follows:
Particulars Balance As at Balance As at
March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022

TOTAL 26,535.98 26,935.42
Liquidity Risk:
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to encounter its financial obligations associated with financial liabilities

meet its liabilities on the due date. The Company consistently generates sufficient cash flows from operations (with adequate
reserves) and has access to multiple sources of funding (banking facilities and loans from promoter company) to meet the financial
obligations and maintain adequate liquidity for use.
The processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by Senior Management.

7) Sensitivity Analysis: Year ended 31/03/2023 Year ended 31/03/2022


Discount Rate Salary Escalation Discount Rate Salary Escalation
Rate Rate
Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of
providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to
small changes in demographic assumptions. The
Key acturial assumptions to which the benefit
obligation results are particularly sensitive to are
discount rate and future salary escalation rate. The
following table summarizes the change in defined
benefit obligation and impact in percentage terms
compared with the reported defined benefit
obligation at the end of the reporting period arising
on account of an increase or decrease in the
reported assumption by 50 basis points.
Defined benefit Obligation on increase in 50bps 1,028.86 1,116 1,015.96 1,107
Impact of increase in 50bps on DBO -3.93% 4.21% -4.13% 4.42%
Defined benefit obligation on decrease in 50bps 1,116.00 1,028.50 1,106.79 1,015.72
Impact of decrease in 50bps on DBO 4.21% -3.96% 4.44% -4.15%
The sensitivities have been calculated to show the
movement in defined benefit obligation in
isolation and assuming there are no changes in
market conditions at the accounting date. There
have been no changes from the previsous periods
in the methods and assumptions used in preparing
the sensitivity analysis.
Disclosures in accordance with Ind AS 102 - Share based Payments
As per Ind AS 102, Share Based Payments, a parent that grants rights to its equity instruments directly to the employees of its
subsidiary has the obligation to provide the employees of the subsidiary with the equity instruments. The subsidiary does not have
an obligation to provide its parent’s equity instruments to the subsidiary’s employees. The subsidiary shall measure the services
received from its employees in accordance with the requirements applicable to equity-settled share-based payment
transactions, and recognise a corresponding increase in equity as a contribution from the parent. Accordingly, the company has
recognized the employee compensation expense in its financial statements, with a corresponding increase to a separate reserve
created for this purpose. The company has recognised employee compensation expense of `33.14 (previous year `20.26) during
the year with corresponding increase to Employee Stock Options Reserve.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to the financial instrument fails to meet its
contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers and investment securities.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consists of trade receivables, investments,
loans, cash and cash equivalents and other financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of
the financial assets. By their nature, all such financial assets involve risks, including the credit risk of non-performance by
counterparties.
The Company periodically assesses the credit quality of the counterparties by taking into account their financial position, past
experience, ageing of accounts receivables and any other factor determined by individual characteristic of the counterparty.
The maximum amount of exposure to credit was as follows:
Particulars Balance As at Balance As at

Investments 18,469.57 17,492.19
Trade receivables 4,491.93 2,618.92
Cash and cash equivalents 2,185.61 3,140.57
Bank balances other than Cash and cash equivalents 171.80 155.63
Loans 51.88 52.32
Other financial assets 505.07 471.15
TOTAL 25,875.86 23,930.77
Liquidity Risk:
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to encounter its financial obligations associated with financial liabilities
as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by ensuring, as far as possible, to maintain sufficient liquid funds to
meet its liabilities on the due date. The Company consistently generates sufficient cash flows from operations (with adequate
reserves) and has access to multiple sources of funding (banking facilities and loans from promoter company) to meet the financial
obligations and maintain adequate liquidity for use.
The processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by Senior Management.

prices. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the foreign currency exchange rates, interest
rates, credit, liquidity and other market changes. The Company’s exposure to market risk is primarily on account of foreign currency
exchange rate risk.
Foreign Currency Risk:
- The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other
Comprehensive Income and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are
denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company.
- The Company's exchange risk arises its exposure to foreign currency assets and liabilities (primarily in SGD and AED). The
exchange rate between the Indian rupee and these foreign currencies has changed substantially in recent periods and may
continue to fluctuate substantially in the future.
- The Company periodically determines its strategy to mitigate foreign currency risk. The Company evaluates the impact of foreign
exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks:
The maximum amount of exposure to foreign currency risk is as follows:

Interest rate risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market
interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates arises on Company's debt obligations. The
Company's borrowings are primarily based on the MCLR rates.
Sensitivity Analysis:
The following table sets out the effect on the Statement of Profit and Loss due to fluctuations in the interest rates:

7) Sensitivity Analysis: Year ended 31/03/2023 Year ended 31/03/2022


Discount Rate Salary Escalation Discount Rate Salary Escalation
Rate Rate
Gratuity is a lump sum plan and the cost of
providing these benefits is typically less sensitive to
small changes in demographic assumptions. The
Key acturial assumptions to which the benefit
obligation results are particularly sensitive to are
discount rate and future salary escalation rate. The
following table summarizes the change in defined
benefit obligation and impact in percentage terms
compared with the reported defined benefit
obligation at the end of the reporting period arising
on account of an increase or decrease in the
reported assumption by 50 basis points.
Defined benefit Obligation on increase in 50bps 1,132.68 1,230.37 1,184.98 1,285.26
Impact of increase in 50bps on DBO -8.62% 9.22% -6.81% 7.28%
Defined benefit obligation on decrease in 50bps 1,230.39 1,132.27 1,285.46 1,184.72
Impact of decrease in 50bps on DBO 0.09 (0.09) 0.07 (0.07)
The sensitivities have been calculated to show the
movement in defined benefit obligation in
isolation and assuming there are no changes in
market conditions at the accounting date. There
have been no changes from the previsous periods
in the methods and assumptions used in preparing
the sensitivity analysis.
Disclosures in accordance with Ind AS 102 - Share based Payments
As per Ind AS 102, Share Based Payments, a parent that grants rights to its equity instruments directly to the employees of its
subsidiary has the obligation to provide the employees of the subsidiary with the equity instruments. The subsidiary does not have
an obligation to provide its parent’s equity instruments to the subsidiary’s employees. The subsidiary shall measure the services
received from its employees in accordance with the requirements applicable to equity-settled share-based payment
transactions, and recognise a corresponding increase in equity as a contribution from the parent. Accordingly, the company has
recognized the employee compensation expense in its financial statements, with a corresponding increase to a separate reserve
created for this purpose. The company has recognised employee compensation expense of `33.14 (previous year `20.26) during
the year with corresponding increase to Employee Stock Options Reserve.
