PRINCIPAL FACTORS AFFECTING OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our results of operations have been, and will be, affected by many factors, some of which are beyond our control. The following is a discussion of certain factors that have had, and will continue to have, a significant effect on our financial condition and results of operations:
Market and economic conditions
We are one of the key manufacturers of high precision engineered components and assemblies supplying to global customers across industries such as energy, motion control & automation, industrial equipment systems, metal forming and other diversified industrial applications. The level of demand of our products depends to a large extent on the success of our customers and performance of their respective end use industries. General downturn in our industry, the end use industries in which our customers operate or our specifically our customers, for any reason including macroeconomic and geopolitical factors, supply-chain issues, high interest rates and labour shortage can affect the demand of our products. Other market and economic factors that may impact the demand in these sectors include: high rates of inflation in India and in countries where our customers are based which could increase our costs without proportionately increasing our revenue, and as such decrease our operating margins;
any slowdown in economic growth or financial instability in India and in countries where our customers are based; availability of, and increase in, cost of materials and labour; instability in financial markets; any tariffs or non-tariff barriers imposed by governments in countries where we export our goods and services; fluctuation in foreign exchange rates; and
any scarcity of credit or other financing, resulting in an adverse impact on economic conditions and scarcity of financing for our expansions.
Dependence on few customers and maintaining relationships and retaining our customers
While our customers may vary annually, we generate significant revenue from our top 10 customers every year. Consequently, our business and financial condition in any given financial year is reliant on our top 10 customers. Our revenue from operations from our top 3 customers, top 5 customers and top 10 customers during Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023 are set out below:

Top 10 customers |
1,533.24 | 47.87% | 1,015.98 | 61.27% | 1,137.12 | 68.88% |
Our product offerings adhere to stringent quality standards and specifications, and we believe that maintaining these high standards along with timely delivery has been instrumental in sustaining long-term relationship with our customers which is reflected in the repeat orders received from our customers. We believe that our robust customer relationships are a result of our strong design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Set out below are the number of our repeat customers and their revenue contribution during Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023:

*Revenue from repeat customers is revenue from customers where our Company would have recognized revenue from such customer in at least one fiscal during the last two fiscals preceding the fiscal for which the data is being disclosed.
Our continued growth will be dependent on our ability to retain and deepen our relationship with our existing customers and expand our customer base, and loss of one or more key customer could impact our results of operations and financial condition.
High dependence on Energy industry
Our products find applications in industries such as (i) Energy which includes supplies with end application primarily in oil & gas, wind energy and power sector; (ii) Motion Control and Automation which primarily includes supplies with electro-mechanical systems to end applications primarily in drives and motors, flow control, motion control, sensors, automation and hydraulics; (iii) Industrial Equipment Systems which includes supplies with end application primarily in aerospace ground support equipment, construction equipment, machineries for diverse applications, and components for winches and hoists; and (iv) Others which includes supplies with end application primarily in metal forming and other diversified industrial applications. We are accordingly dependent on our end-user industries, in particular, the energy industry which contributed 1,356.29 million, 500.42 million, and 442.13 million constituting 42.35%, 30.18% and 26.78% to our revenue from sale of products and services during Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023. Our Order Book from energy industry was 12,225.29 million, 2,169.81 million, 297.35 million, and 105.34 million constituting 94.82%, 76.49%, 35.43% and 18.30% of our Order Book as at April 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. Any downturn in the energy industry and especially the oil and gas segment of the energy industry or loss of our customers in the energy industry and especially the oil and gas segment of the energy industry could impact our financial condition and revenue from operations.
High working capital requirements
Our business operations are subject to significant working capital requirements to maintain optimum inventory levels of materials, work-in- progress and finished goods as well as to offer credit to our customers and fulfil our payment obligations towards our suppliers. Currently, we meet our working capital requirements through a mix of internal accruals and working capital facilities from lenders. The key components of our working capital requirement and our net working capital requirements for Fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively are set out in the table below.

Geographic concentration of Manufacturing Facilities
Our existing manufacturing operations are based out of our 2 Manufacturing Facilities located in Rajkot, Gujarat, and our Upcoming Facility and Proposed Facilities are also going to be located in Rajkot, Gujarat. In addition to the general risks that are associated with manufacturing operations such as the breakdown or failure of equipment, power supply interruptions, facility obsolescence or disrepair etc, we are also subject to the risk of a single location of our Manufacturing Facilities. The concentration of our Manufacturing Facilities and operations in a single location in Gujarat subjects us to various risks, including vulnerability to change of policies, laws and regulations or the political, disruption or disturbance in surrounding areas and natural calamities, which could hamper our operations by causing the production at our manufacturing facilities to slow down or shut down. Prolonged periods slow down or shut down of production at our manufacturing facilities could affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Export and Foreign currency risk
Over the last 3 fiscals, we supplied our products to customers across 22 countries including United States of America, India, United Arab Emirates, Germany, Bulgaria, Sweden and Canada with majority of our revenue from operations being derived from outside India. Set out below is our revenue from operations outside India and our revenue from operations within India:

We also import a large portion of our materials from international suppliers and set out below is our cost of our material purchases from outside India:

Cost of materials purchased from outside India as a % of total materials purchased |
42.21% | 8.04% | 4.30% |
We also import materials from suppliers in China and during Fiscal 2025, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, our total material purchased which was imported from China was 349.26 million, 31.32 million, and 24.19 million representing 21.90%, 4.67%, and 4.30%, respectively, of our materials purchased. The major foreign currency exposures for us are denominated in USD and Euro. While we believe that our import of materials acts as a natural hedge for our exports, any adverse fluctuation in foreign exchange may increase our costs of operations, adversely affect our margins, and consequently our profitability. Further, any restriction or embargo on the sourcing of materials from certain countries, in particular China, could adversely affect our business and financial condition.
While we have forex management systems in place and periodically avail forward cover to minimise the foreign exchange related risks, we may experience foreign exchange losses and gains in respect of transactions dominated in foreign currencies. Certain jurisdictions in which we operate may be subject to foreign exchange repatriation and exchange control risks, which may result in either delayed recovery or even non-realisation of revenue. In addition, the policies of the RBI may also change from time to time, which may limit our ability to effectively hedge our foreign currency exposure and may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow. Any adverse fluctuations of the Indian Rupee vis-?-vis foreign currency to which we have an exposure cannot be accurately predicted and our attempts to mitigate the adverse effects of exchange rate fluctuations may not be successful, which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We could also be affected by the introduction of or increase in the levy of import tariffs in India, or in the countries in which we service our customers, or changes in trade agreements between countries, or any adverse geopolitical conditions.
Competition
We operate in a highly competitive environment in both, Indian and overseas markets. For further details, see Our Business -Competition on page 273. Some of our key competitors include entities such as Azad Engineering Limited, Unimech Aerospace and Manufacturing Limited, PTC Industries Limited, MTAR Technologies Limited and Dynamatic Technologies Limited. Our competitors may have certain advantages, including greater financial, technical or marketing resources, which could enhance their ability to finance growth, fund future expansion or operate in more diversified geographies. As a result, to remain competitive in the market we must implement our growth strategies, continuously strive to reduce our costs and improve our operating efficiencies. If we fail to do so, it may have an adverse effect on our market share and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we can continue to effectively compete with such competitors in the future, and failure to compete effectively may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

- The resultant impact of tax due to the aforesaid adjustments, if any.
These Restated Consolidated Financial Statements are intended for inclusion in the DRHP, RHP and Prospectus to be filed with Securities and Exchange Board of India, National Stock Exchange of India Limited, BSE Limited and in connection with the proposed offer. These Restated Consolidated Financial Statements should not be used for any other purpose.
1.2. Basis of preparation and presentation
The Restated Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, and on accrual basis. The Group has prepared these statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments).
All assets and liabilities have been classified as current and non-current as per the Groups normal operating cycle of 12 months. The Statement of cash flows has been prepared under indirect method.
1.3. Functional and presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is also the functional currency. All the amounts have been rounded off to the nearest INR Million, unless otherwise indicated.
1.4. Use of accounting estimates and judgements
The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles of Ind AS which requires management to make critical judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting of assets, liabilities, income and expenditure. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and any revisions to the estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and future periods are affected. Key source of estimation of uncertainty at the date of financial statements, which may cause material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, is in respect of:
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
Impairment of intangible asset
Provisions & contingent liabilities
Valuation of inventories
Employee benefits
Impairment of financial assets
1.5. Measurement of fair values
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if the market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
A. Level 1 - quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
B. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
C. Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
1.6. Basis of consolidation
The Restated Consolidated Financial Statements comprise of financial information of the Company and its subsidiary(ies) as at March 31, 2025, March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023. Control is achieved when the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has:
Power over the investee (i.e. existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights result in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:
The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
The Groups voting rights and potential voting rights
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.
These Restated Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances. If a member of the group uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements for like transactions and events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to that group members financial statements in preparing the Restated Consolidated Financial Statements to ensure conformity with the groups accounting policies.
The financial statements of all entities used for the purpose of consolidation are drawn up to same reporting date as that of the Holding company, i.e., year ended on 31 March. When the end of the reporting period of the parent is different from that of a subsidiary, the subsidiary prepares, for consolidation purposes, additional financial statements as of the same date as the financial statements of the Holding company to enable the Holding company to consolidate the financial information of the subsidiary, unless it is impracticable to do so.
2. Material accounting policies
2.1. Property, plant and equipment (PPE)
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost of acquisition or construction less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of fixed assets comprises of its purchase price, non-refundable taxes & levies, freight and other incidental expenses related to the acquisition and installation of the respective assets. Borrowing cost attributable to financing of acquisition or construction of the qualifying fixed assets is capitalized to respective assets when the time taken to put the assets to use is substantial.
When major items of property, plant and equipment like tooling or a separate identifiable machinery spare part, have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items to respective asset block. The cost of replacement of any property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably.
Pre-operative expenditure comprising of revenue expenses incurred in connection with project implementation during the period up to commencement of commercial production are treated as part of the project costs and are capitalized. Such expenses are capitalized only if the project to which they relate, involve substantial expansion of capacity or upgradation.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from its use. Difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in statement of profit and loss.
Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided using written down value method based on useful life of the assets estimated by the management, which are in line with the useful lives as prescribed in Part C of Schedule II of the Act. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year-end and changes in estimates, if any are accounted for on a prospective basis.
The Group, based on technical assessment made by management, depreciates tooling assets over estimated useful life of 3 years which is different from the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. The management believes that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the tooling assets are likely to be used. Accordingly, for these assets, the useful lives estimated by the Group are different from those prescribed in the Schedule II.
| Furniture & fixtures | 10 years |
| Office equipment | 5 years |
| Plant & Machineries | 15 years |
| Computers | 3 years |
| Tooling | 3 years |
| Factory Building | 60 years |
| Motor Vehicles | 10 years |
Capital work-in-progress (CWIP) includes cost of PPE under installation/ under construction, net of accumulated impairment loss, if any, as at the balance sheet date. Expenditure/ income during construction period (including financing cost related to borrowed funds for construction or acquisition of qualifying PPE) is included under Capital Work-in-Progress, and the same is allocated to the respective PPE on the completion of their construction.
Depreciation is not recorded on capital work-in-progress until construction and installation is complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.
2.2. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any.
Intangible assets not ready for the intended use on the date of the balance sheet are disclosed as intangible assets under development.
In respect of intangible assets acquired / purchased during the year, amortization is provided on a pro-rata basis from the date on which such asset is ready to use.
Intangible assets are amortized using written down value method over the estimated useful life as prescribed in Part C of Schedule II of the Act.
Amortization method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each financial year and adjusted if appropriate.
2.3. Financial Instruments
A. Financial Assets i. Classification of financial assets:
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
o Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income or through profit and loss) and
o Those measured at mortised cost.
The classification depends on the Groups business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.
ii. Initial measurement:
Financial assets (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component) are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
iii. Subsequent measurement:
Amortized Cost
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue which are recognized in profit and loss. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss and recognized in other gains / (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)
Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
iv. Derecognition of financial assets:
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a Group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognized (i.e. removed from the Groups balance sheet) when:
The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
The Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset
When the Group has transferred an asset, the Group evaluates whether it has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset. In such cases, the financial asset is derecognized. Where the Group has retained substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, the financial asset is not derecognized.
Where the Group has neither transferred a financial asset nor retains asset is derecognized if the Group has not retained control over the financial asset. Where the Group has retained control of the financial asset, the asset is continued to be recognized to the extent of continuing involvement in the financial asset.
v. Income recognition:
Interest income is recognized in the statement of profit and loss as it accrues, using the effective interest method.
vi. Investments
Investments in mutual funds are primarily held for the Groups temporary cash requirements and can be readily convertible in cash. These investments are initially recorded at fair value and classified as fair value through profit or loss. The Group measures investment in subsidiaries at cost less provision for impairment, if any.
vii. Security Deposits
These primarily pertain to rent deposits. These are initially recorded at fair value and then are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
viii. Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and balances with bank.
ix. Trade Receivables:
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for sale of services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade receivables are initially recognized at its transaction price which is considered to be its fair value and are classified as current assets as it is expected to be received within the normal operating cycle of the business.
x. Other Financial assets:
Other non-derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized costs using the effective interest method.
xi. Impairment:
At each balance sheet date, the Group assesses whether a financial asset is to be impaired. Ind AS
109 requires the Group to apply expected credit loss model for recognition and measurement of impairment loss. In determining the allowances for doubtful trade receivables, 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 is adjusted for forward looking information. The impairment loss is based on the ageing of the receivables that are due and allowance rates used in the provision matrix. For all other financial assets, expected credit losses are measured at an amount equal to the 12-months expected credit losses or at an amount equal to the life time expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.
B. Financial Liabilities
The Groups financial liabilities include borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities.
i. Classification of financial liabilities:
All the Groups financial liabilities, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, are measured at amortized cost.
ii. Initial measurement:
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial liabilities (other than financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are deducted from the fair value of the financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
iii. Subsequent measurement:
Financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate Method. The Effective Interest Rate Method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
iv. Derecognition of financial liabilities:
The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Groups obligations are discharged, cancelled or waived off or have expired. An exchange between the Group and the lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.
v. Trade Payables:
Trade payables are amounts due to vendors for purchase of goods or services acquired in the ordinary course of business and are classified as current liabilities to the extent it is expected to be paid within the normal operating cycle of the business.
vi. Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recorded at fair value net of transaction cost and subsequently measured at amortized costs using effective interest rate method.
Transaction costs are charged to statement of profit and loss as financial expenses over the term of borrowing.
vii. Other financial liabilities:
Other non-derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized costs using the effective interest method.
C. Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into derivative financial instruments to manage its foreign exchange rate risk. Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss immediately.
.4. Employee benefits
A. Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Group makes specified monthly contributions towards government administered provident fund scheme. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in statement of profit and loss in the periods during which the related services are rendered by employees.
B. Defined benefit plans
The Group operates an unfunded defined benefit gratuity plan in India. The Groups net obligation in respect of gratuity, which is defined benefit plan, is calculated using the projected unit credit method and the same is carried out by qualified actuary. The current service cost and interest on the net defined benefit liability / (asset) is recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Past service cost is immediately recognized in the statement of profit and loss. Actuarial gains and losses net of deferred taxes arising from experience adjustment and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.
.5. Revenue from contract with customer
Sale of goods
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised goods to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Group expects to receive in exchange for those goods. Contracts for the sale of goods provide customers with a customary right of return in case of defects, quality issues etc. The rights of return give rise to variable consideration.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which is determined based on contracts with the customers.
Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for discounts and estimated returns as specified in the contracts with the customers. Revenue excludes taxes collected from customers on behalf of the government.
Sales return is variable consideration that is recognized and recorded based on historical experience, market conditions and provided for in the year of sale as reduction from revenue. The methodology and assumptions used to estimate returns are monitored and adjusted regularly in line with trade practices, historical trends, past experience, projected market conditions and certain factual data in relation to actual returns received in terms of delivery of short quantities and rejection on account of quality issue.
Sale of Services
The Group renders job work services and tooling income that are provided separately. The Group recognizes revenue from sale of services at a point in time, when products are sent to the customer after completion.
Other operating revenue export incentives
Export incentives are recognized as income when right to receive credit as per the terms of the scheme is established in respect of the exports made and where there is no significant uncertainty regarding the ultimate collection of the relevant export proceeds.
Other income
Interest Income is recognized on time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the applicable interest rate. Interest income is included under the head Other Income in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
2.6. Income Taxes
A. Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the country where the Company operates and generates taxable income.
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit and loss is recognized outside profit and loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity).
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts, and it is intended to realize the asset and settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously. Advance taxes and provisions for current income taxes are presented in the balance sheet after off-setting advance tax paid and income tax provision arising in the same tax jurisdiction and where the relevant tax paying units intends to settle the asset and liability on a net basis.
B. Deferred taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts. Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rates and the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except deferred tax liability arising from initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit/ loss at the time of transaction. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses, except deferred tax assets arising from initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit/ loss at the time of transaction. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that sufficient future taxable income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized.
The carrying amount of deferred tax asset is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realized.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
Deferred tax relating to items recognized outside the statement of profit and loss is recognized in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
2.7. Leases
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Group as a lessee
The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short term leases. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
i) Right to use assets
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets. If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment.
ii) Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
iii) Short term leases
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its properties (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). Lease payments on short-term leases are recognized as expense in profit and loss.
2.8. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing profit or loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Group by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The Group did not have any potentially dilutive securities in any of the years presented.
2.9. Impairment of non-financial assets
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite life are evaluated for recoverability whenever there is any indication that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount (i.e. higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis unless the asset does not generate cash flows that are largely independent of those from other assets. In such cases, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than it carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in the statement of profit and loss to such extent. When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a CGU) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, such that the increase in the carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or CGU) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in statement of profit and loss.
2.10. Provisions and Contingent Liabilities a) Provision
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions required to settle are reviewed regularly and are adjusted where necessary to reflect the current best estimates of the obligation. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.
b) Warranties
A provision for warranties is recognized when the underlying products are sold. The provision is based on technical evaluation, historical warranty data and a weighting of all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities. A liability is recognized at the time the product is sold. The Group does not provide any extended warranties to its customers.
c) Contingent Liabilities:
A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events whose existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the Group 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. The Group does not recognize a contingent liability but discloses its existence in the restated consolidated financial statements.
d) Contingent Assets:
A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by- the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity. The Group does not recognize the contingent asset in its consolidated financial statements since this may result in the recognition of income that may never be realized. Where an inflow of economic benefits is probable, the Group disclose a brief description of the nature of contingent assets at the end of the reporting period. However, when the realization of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not a contingent asset and the Group recognize such assets. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets are reviewed at each Balance Sheet date.
2.11. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of cash flow statement comprise cash at bank (including demand deposits) and in hand.
2.12. Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the Group at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or an average rate if the average rate approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on settlement of transactions and translation of monetary items are recognized in statement of profit and loss.
2.13. Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their present location and condition. Costs incurred in bringing each product to its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:
Raw materials and stores and spares (valued at cost): cost includes cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on first in, first out basis.
Finished goods and work in progress: cost includes cost of direct materials and labor and a proportion of manufacturing overheads absorbed based on the normal operating capacity, but excludes borrowing costs. Cost is determined on first in, first out (FIFO) basis.
Packing Materials and other products (valued at cost) are determined on FIFO basis.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The net realizable value of work-in-progress is determined with reference to the selling prices of related finished products.
2.14. Segment Reporting
An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Groups other components, and for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The Managing Director of the Company is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and accordingly is identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). All operating segments operating results are reviewed regularly by the CODM to make decisions about resources to be allocated and assess their performance.
2.15. Borrowing cost
Borrowing costs are interest and other costs incurred in connection with the borrowing of funds. Borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition or construction of an asset which necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use are capitalized as part of the cost of that asset. Other borrowing costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
2.16. Events after reporting date
Where events occurring after the balance sheet date provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period, the impact of such events is adjusted within the financial information. Otherwise, events after the balance sheet date of material size or nature are only disclosed.
NON-GAAP MEASURES
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization Expenses (EBITDA), EBITDA Margin, Profit After Tax (PAT) Margin, Return on Capital Employed, Return on Equity, Net Debt to Equity, Net Debt to EBITDA, Net Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio, Net Working Capital and Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio
In addition to our results determined in accordance with Ind AS, we believe the following Non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity. We use the following Non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively with financial measures disclosed in the financial statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS, may be helpful to investors because it provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating our ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, our management does not consider these Non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures.
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization Expenses (EBITDA), EBITDA Margin, Profit After Tax (PAT) Margin, Return on Capital Employed, Return on Equity, Net Debt to Equity, Net Debt to EBITDA, Net Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio, Net Working Capital and Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio (Non-GAAP Measures) presented in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus is a supplemental measure of our performance and liquidity that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. Further, EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to cash flows, profit/ (loss) for the year or any other measure of financial performance or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity, profitability or cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities derived in accordance with Ind AS, IFRS or US GAAP. In addition, Non-GAAP Measures are not standardised terms, hence a direct comparison of Non-GAAP Measures between companies may not be possible. Other companies may calculate the Non-GAAP Measures differently from us, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Although Non-GAAP Measures is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, our Companys management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating us because it is a widely used measure to evaluate a companys operating performance. See Risk Factors - Certain non-GAAP financial measures and certain other statistical information relating to our operations and financial performance like Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization Expenses (EBITDA), EBITDA Margin, Profit After Tax (PAT) Margin, Return on Capital Employed, Return on Equity, Net Debt to Equity, Net Debt to EBITDA, Net Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio, Net Working Capital and Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio have been included in this Draft Red Herring Prospectus. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of operating performance or liquidity defined by Ind AS and may not be comparable on page 70.

FISCAL 2025 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2024 Income
Total Income
Our total income increased by 92.20% from 1,819.52 million in Fiscal 2024 to 3,497.06 million in Fiscal 2025, primarily due to an increase in our revenue from operations as discussed below.
Revenue from operations
Our revenue from operations increased by 92.45% from 1,781.80 million in Fiscal 2024 to 3,429.13 million in Fiscal 2025, due to (i) increase in sale of finished goods by 91.32% from 1,630.80 million in Fiscal 2024 to
3,120.00 million in Fiscal 2025 due to (a) higher actual production achieved at our Manufacturing Facilities which increased by 54.89% from 818,365 machining hours during Fiscal 2024 to 1,267,595 machining hours during Fiscal 2025; (b) higher contribution in terms of machine hours from big-size and mid-size machines which helped improve our realization per machine hour; (c) receipt of significantly higher orders from our customers which is reflected in the substantial increase in our Order Book from 575.49 million as at March 31, 2023 to 839.32 million as at March 31, 2024 which to 2,836.85 million as at March 31, 2025; (ii) increase in job work income from 11.29 million in Fiscal 2024 to 45.93 million in Fiscal 2025 led by higher demand from our customers; (iii) increase in tooling income from 16.22 million in Fiscal 2024 to 36.93 million in Fiscal 2025 led by higher demand from our customers; (iv) increase in scrap sales from 89.86 million in Fiscal 2024 to 173.97 million in Fiscal 2025 in line with our increase in revenue from sale of products; and (v) increase in export incentives from 33.63 million in Fiscal 2024 to 52.30 million in Fiscal 2025 led by higher revenue from outside India.
Other income
Our other income increased by 80.09% from 37.72 million in Fiscal 2024 to 67.93 million in Fiscal 2025, primarily due to an increase in gain on foreign exchange variation (net) from 28.53 million in Fiscal 2024 to 62.24 million in Fiscal 2025. The increase in gain was partially in line with increase in revenue from operations from outside India from 1,300.19 million in Fiscal 2024 to 2,570.07 million in Fiscal 2025 and, increase in foreign currency exposure (USD) of trade receivables from 342.58 million at as March 31, 2024 to 1,088.62 million as at March 31, 2025.

Cost materials consumed
Our cost of material consumed increased by 125.68% from 553.36 million in Fiscal 2024 to 1,248.84 million in
Fiscal 2025 which was commensurate with the increase in our revenue from operations and change in product mix.
Changes in inventories of finished goods and work in progress
The total change in inventory of finished goods and work in progress moved from (138.55) million in Fiscal 2024 to (436.23) million in Fiscal 2025 which was due to increase in inventory of finished goods from 324.41 million as at March 31, 2024 to 602.06 million as at March 31, 2025 and inventories of work in progress from 165.00 million as at March 31, 2024 to 323.58 million as at March 31, 2025. The increase in inventories of finished goods and work in progress was largely in-line with our increased scale of operations.
Employee benefits expense
Our employee benefits expense increased by 108.84% from 263.47 million in Fiscal 2024 to 550.22 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in salaries, wages and bonus from 233.90 million in Fiscal 2024 to 503.69 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily on account of increase in the number of permanent employees which have increased from 1,092 employees as at March 31, 2024 to 1,527 permanent employees as at March 31, 2025.
Finance Costs
Our finance costs increased by 108.84% from 142.38 million in Fiscal 2024 to 297.34 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily due to an (i) increase in interest expense on term loans from 41.80 million in Fiscal 2024 to 132.03 million in Fiscal 2025 pursuant to increase in term loans (including current maturities) from 1,185.67 million as at March 31, 2024 to 1,512.75 million as at March 31, 2025; (ii) increase in interest expense on working capital loans from 47.17 million in Fiscal 2024 to 107.18 million in Fiscal 2025 pursuant to increase in loans repayable on demands from banks from 952.10 million as at March 31, 2024 to 1,569.14 million as at March 31, 2025 to fund our net working capital requirements which increased from 959.95 million as at March 31, 2024 to 2,655.88 million as at March 31, 2025; and (iii) increase in interest expense on other loans from 16.60 million in Fiscal 2024 to 21.19 million in Fiscal 2025 pursuant to change in loans repayable to others from 167.10 million as at March

Depreciation and amortization expense
Our depreciation and amortization expense increased by 67.59 % from 229.84 million in Fiscal 2024 to 385.19 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily due to an increase in depreciation on property, plant and equipment from 200.06 million in Fiscal 2024 to 338.99 million in Fiscal 2025 on account of net additions to gross block of property, plant and equipment of 549.97 million in Fiscal 2025 which increased the gross block of property, plant and equipment from 2,160.57 million as at March 31, 2024 to 2,710.54 million as at March 31, 2025. The increase in depreciation was higher due to capitalization of our capital expenditure at our Existing Facility 2 which was done during the last 6 months of Fiscal 2024, and thus such assets were available for depreciation for the entire year in Fiscal 2025 as compared to depreciation for only a period of 6 months during Fiscal 2024.
Other expenses
Our expenses increased by 95.93% from 454.16 million in Fiscal 2024 to 889.83 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily due to:

Total Income
Our total income decreased marginally by 0.96% from 1,837.13 million in Fiscal 2023 to 1,819.52 million in
Fiscal 2024, primarily due to decrease in our other income as discussed below.
Revenue from operations
Our revenue from operations increased marginally by 0.48% from 1,773.31 million in Fiscal 2023 to 1,781.80 million in Fiscal 2024, due to (i) increase in job work income from 10.37 million in Fiscal 2023 to 11.29 million in Fiscal 2024; (ii) increase in tooling income from 7.96 million in Fiscal 2023 to 16.22 million in Fiscal 2024; (iii) increase in scrap sales from 84.52 million in Fiscal 2023 to 89.86 million in Fiscal 2024, as offset by (i) decrease in sale of finished goods from 1,632.43 million in Fiscal 2023 to 1,630.80 million in Fiscal 2024; (ii) decrease in export incentives from 38.03 million in Fiscal 2023 to 33.63 million in Fiscal 2024.
Other income
Our other income decreased by 40.90 % from 63.82 million in Fiscal 2023 to 37.72 million in Fiscal 2024, primarily due to a decrease in gain on foreign exchange variation (net) from 63.01 million in Fiscal 2023 to 28.53 million in Fiscal 2024. The decrease in gain was primarily on account of change in foreign exchange rates during the periods which impacted our foreign exchange exposures leading to respective gains.
Expense
Total Expense
Our total expenses increased by 7.67% from 1397.47 million in Fiscal 2023 to 1,504.66 million in Fiscal 2024, due to the reasons discussed below.
Cost materials consumed
Our cost of material consumed decreased by 1.74% from 563.16 million in Fiscal 2023 to 553.36 million in Fiscal
2024 which was primarily in line with change in revenue from operations.
Changes in inventories
The total change in inventories of finished goods and work-in-progress moved from (63.92) million in Fiscal 2023 to (138.56) million in Fiscal 2024 which was due to increase in inventory of finished goods from 222.55 million as at March 31, 2023 to 324.41 million as at March 31, 2024 and inventories of work in progress from 128.31 million as at March 31, 2023 to 165.00 million as at March 31, 2024. The increase in inventories of finished goods and work in progress was largely in anticipation of our increased scale of operations which were reflected in higher revenue from operations during Fiscal 2025.
Employee benefits expense
Our employee benefits expense increased by 10.22% from 239.05 million in Fiscal 2023 to 263.47 million in Fiscal 2024 primarily due to an increase in our salaries, wages and bonus from 212.13 million in Fiscal 2023 to
233.90 million in Fiscal 2024 on account of increase in the number of permanent employees which have increased from 602 permanent employees as at March 31, 2023 to 1,092 permanent employees as at March 31, 2024.
Finance Costs
Our finance costs increased by 52.15 % from 93.58 million in Fiscal 2023 to 142.38 million in Fiscal 2024 primarily due to an (i) increase in interest expense on term loans from 20.85 million in Fiscal 2023 to 41.80 million in Fiscal 2024 pursuant increase in term loans (including current maturities) from 315.36 million as at March 31, 2023 to 1,185.67 million as at March 31, 2024; (ii) increase in interest expense on working capital loans from 19.93 million in Fiscal 2023 to 47.17 million in Fiscal 2024 pursuant to increase in loans repayable on demands from banks from 427.01 million in Fiscal 2023 to 952.10 million in Fiscal 2024 to fund our net working capital requirements which increased from 675.17 million as at March 31, 2023 to 959.95 million as at March 31, 2024; and (iii) decrease in interest expense on other loans from 19.17 million in Fiscal 2023 to 16.60 million in Fiscal 2024 pursuant to change in loans repayable to others from 145.74 million as at March 31, 2023 to 167.10 million as at March 31, 2024.
Depreciation and amortization expense
Our depreciation and amortization expense increased by 39.18% from 165.14 million in Fiscal 2023 to 229.84 million in Fiscal 2024 primarily due to an increase in depreciation on property, plant and equipment from 154.64 million in Fiscal 2023 to 200.06 million in Fiscal 2024 on account of net additions to gross block of property, plant and equipment of 1,472.72 million in Fiscal 2024 which increased the gross block of property, plant and equipment from 687.85 million as at March 31, 2023 to 2,160.57 million as at March 31, 2024. The increase in depreciation was lower as capitalization of our capital expenditure at our Existing Facility 2 which was done during last 6 months of Fiscal 2024 and thus such assets were available for depreciation for only 6 months during Fiscal 2024.

Reasons for working capital fluctuations for last 3 Fiscals
Our working capital requirements have increased from 675.17 million representing 139 days of our revenue from operations in Fiscal 2023 to 2,655.88 million representing 283 days or our revenue from operations in Fiscal 2025.
Over the last 3 Fiscals our inventory levels have varied between 110 days and 191 days of our revenue from operations. Some of our materials especially certain grade of steels we process have long lead times and a supplier expectation of a minimum order quantity which requires us to carry inventory of such materials for extended periods. Further, we also carry high inventory levels in anticipation of business requirements, upcoming capacity expansions and movement in material prices.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our principal financial liabilities comprise of loans and borrowings, lease liabilities and trade payables, security deposits received etc. Our financial assets include trade receivables, investment and cash and cash equivalents, etc that we derive directly from our operations. We are exposed to a variety of risks such as market risk and credit risk. Our Board is responsible for overall risk management approach and for approving the risk strategies and principles. Our Board and agrees policies for managing each risk, which are summarised as below:
Market Risk
Market risk refers to the possibility that changes in the market rates may have impact on our profits or the value of its holding of financial instruments. We are exposed to market risks on account of change in foreign exchange rates and interest rates.
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. Our exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to our long term debt obligations with floating interest rates. We manage the interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings.
Foreign currency risk
Our foreign currency risk arises from our foreign operations and foreign currency transactions. The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the income statement and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency other than our functional currency. Since a major part of our revenue is in foreign currency and major part of the costs are in Indian Rupees, any movement in currency rates would have impact on our performance. Consequently, the overall objective of the foreign currency risk management is to minimise the short term currency impact on its revenue and cash-flow in order to improve the predictability of the financial performance. The major foreign currency exposures for us are denominated in USD & EURO. Additionally, there are transactions which are entered into in other currencies and are not significant in relation to the total volume of the foreign currency exposures.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. We are exposed to credit risk from its operating activities including investments, trade receivables and deposits with banks.
Trade receivables
All trade receivables are subject to credit risk exposure. Our exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The demographics of the customer, including the default risk of the industry and country, in which the customer operates, also has an influence on credit risk assessment. Credit risk is managed through established policies, controls relating to credit approvals and procedures for continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which we grants credit terms in the normal course of business. We use expected credit loss (ECL) model for assessing the impairment loss. For the purpose, we use a provision matrix to compute the expected credit loss amount. The provision matrix takes into account external and internal risk factors and historical data of credit losses.
Investments and Deposits with banks
With respect to investments, we limits our exposure to credit risk by investing in liquid securities with counter parties depending on their composite performance rankings (CPR) published by credit rating agencies. Bank deposits are placed with banks with high credit rating. Our investment policy lays down guidelines with respect to exposure per counterparty, credit rating, processes in terms of control and continuous monitoring. We therefore considers credit risks on such investments to be negligible.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that we cash or another financial asset. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. We generate cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations, maintains adequate liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and has undrawn short term line of credits from banks to ensure necessary liquidity.
Capital Management
For the purpose of our capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, securities premium and all other equity, securities premium and reserves attributable to the equity holders. The primary objective of our capital management is to maximise the shareholder value. We manage our capital structure and make adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants. We monitor capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net debt. We include within net debt, interest bearing loans and borrowings, less cash and cash equivalents and other bank balances.
