The Chief Operating Decision Maker “CODM” reviews the operations of the Company as a whole, i.e. single primary business segment viz. product and systems for electricity distribution, hence, there are no reportable segments as per Ind AS 108 “Operating Segments”.

The management assessed that bank balances, trade receivables, trade payables, short term borrowings and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

1. The fair values of the interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined by using Discounted cashflow method (DCF) using discount rate that reflects the Company''s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own non-performance risk as at March 31, 2023 was assessed to be insignificant.

2 Long-term receivables/payables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, risk factors, individual creditworthiness of the counterparty and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected credit losses of these receivables.

Fair value hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique: Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly

Level 3: techniques that use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data

37. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations.

Market prices comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks, such as equity price risk and commodity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risks include loans and borrowings, deposits and foreign currency receivables and payables. The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31 2023. The sensitivity of the relevant Profit and Loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in the respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held as of March 31, 2023

(i) Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in foreign currency). Foreign currency exchange rate exposure is partly balanced by purchasing of goods from the respective countries. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows established risk management policies.

Foreign currency risk sensitivity

The following tables demonstrate the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in USD, EUR and other exchange rates, with all other variables held constant. The impact on the Company profit before tax is due to changes in the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities. Foreign currency exposures recognised by the Company that have not been hedged by a derivative instrument or otherwise are as under:

(ii) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate 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 relates primarily to the Company''s long term debt obligation at floating interest rates. The Company''s borrowings outstanding as at March 31, 2023 comprise of fixed rate loans and accordingly, are not exposed to risk of fluctuation in market interest rate.

(iii) Commodity Price Risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require manufacturing, designing, building and servicing technologically advanced products and systems for electricity distribution including products such as distribution transformers, medium voltage switchgears, medium and low voltage protection relays and electricity distribution and automation equipment. It therefore require a continuous supply of copper and Aluminium being the major input used in the manufacturing. Due to the significantly increased volatility of the price of the Copper and aluminium, the Company has entered into various purchase contracts for these material for which there is an active market. The Company maintain the level of these stock as per the requirement of business and market which are discussed by the management on regular basis. Company operates in the way that saving / impact due to change in commodity prices are pass on to the customer and therefore impact on profit due to change in price of commodity is unascertainable.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. The Company does not hold collateral as security. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets.

(ii) Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made in the risk free bank deposits. The limits are set to minimize the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counter party''s potential failure to make payments.

The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 is the carrying amounts . Trade Receivables and other financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as debtor failing to engage in the repayment plan with the Company.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. The Company''s objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and liquidity requirements.

The management assessed that bank balances, trade receivables, trade payables, short term borrowings and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

1. The fair values of the interest-bearing borrowings and loans are determined by using DCF method using discount rate that reflects the Company''s borrowing rate as at the end of the reporting period. The own non-performance risk as at March 31, 2018 was assessed to be insignificant.

2. Long-term receivables/payables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, risk factors, individual creditworthiness of the counterparty and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the expected credit losses of these receivables.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy together with a quantitative sensitivity analysis as at March 31, 2018, are as shown below

Fair value hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly Level 3: techniques that use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Company''s principal financial liabilities comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Company''s operations. The Company''s principal financial assets include loans, trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances that are derived directly from its operations.

The Company''s financial risk management is an integral part of how to plan and execute its business strategies. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Company''s senior management oversees the management of these risks and also ensure that the Company''s financial risk activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with the Company''s policies and risk objectives.

The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized as below:

(a) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks, such as equity price risk and commodity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risks include loans and borrowings, deposits and foreign currency receivables and payables. The sensitivity analyses in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2018. The sensitivity of the relevant Profit and Loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in the respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held as of March 31, 2018.

(i) Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company''s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company''s operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in foreign currency). Foreign currency exchange rate exposure is partly balanced by purchasing of goods from the respective countries. The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from foreign currency transactions and follows established risk management policies.

(ii) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate 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 relates primarily to the Company''s long term debt obligation at floating interest rates. The Company''s borrowings outstanding as at March 31, 2018 comprise of fixed rate loans and accordingly, are not exposed to risk of fluctuation in market interest rate.

(iii) Commodity Price Risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require manufacturing, designing, building and servicing technologically advanced products and systems for electricity distribution including products such as distribution transformers, medium voltage switchgears, medium and low voltage protection relays and electricity distribution and automation equipment. It therefore require a continuous supply of copper and Aluminium being the major input used in the manufacturing. Due to the significantly increased volatility of the price of the Copper and aluminium, the Company has entered into various purchase contracts for these material for which there is an active market. The Company maintain the level of these stock as per the requirement of business and market which are discussed by the management on regular basis. Company operates in the way that saving / impact due to change in commodity prices are pass on to the customer and therefore impact on profit due to change in price of commodity is unascertainable.

(b) Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk that the counter party will not meet its obligation under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

(i) Trade Receivables

Customer credit risk is managed by each business unit subject to the Company''s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management.

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date on trade receivables by lifetime expected credit loss method based on provision matrix. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. The Company does not hold collateral as security. The Company evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables as low, as its customers are located in several jurisdictions and industries and operate in largely independent markets.

(ii) Financial instruments and cash deposits

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Company''s treasury department in accordance with the Company''s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made in the risk free bank deposits. The limits are set to minimize the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through counter party''s potential failure to make payments.

The Company''s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the balance sheet at March 31, 2018, March 31, 2017 and April 01, 2016 is the carrying amounts . Trade Receivables and other financial assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as debtor failing to engage in the repayment plan with the Company. The Company''s maximum exposure relating to financial assets is noted in liquidity table below.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at reasonable price. The Company''s objective is to at all times maintain optimum levels of liquidity to meet its cash and liquidity requirements. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

The impact of for year ended on March 31, 2017 has been recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

D Provision

Under Indian GAAP provisions, including long-term provision are accounted at the undiscounted amount. In contrast, Ind AS 37 requires that where the effect of time value of money is material, the amount of provision should be recognised at the present value of the expenditure expected to settle the obligation. Accordingly, provision for warranty costs has been reduced as at the date of transition with a corresponding adjustment against the deferred revenue. Similarly, provision for warranty costs recognised during the year ended March 31, 2017 has also been reduced . Further, interest expense of representing unwinding of discount due to passage of time has been recorded in the statement of profit of loss during the year ended March 31, 2017.

E Excise Duty

Under Indian GAAP sale of goods was presented as net of excise duty. However, under Ind AS, sale of goods includes excise duty. Excise duty on sale of goods is presented on the face of statement of profit and loss as a separate line item. Thus, sale of goods under Ind AS has increased with a corresponding increase in other expense. This has no resulting impact on the equity

F Remeasurement of Defined Benefit Obligation

Both under Indian GAAP and Ind AS, the Company recognised costs related to its post-employment defined benefit plan on an actuarial basis. Under Indian GAAP the entire cost, including actuarial gains and losses, are charged to profit or loss. Under Ind AS, remeasurements (comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined liability) are recognised in balance sheet through other comprehensive income. Thus, the employee benefit cost recognised in the statement of profit and loss is reduced with a corresponding (net of tax) charge in the OCI.

Under Indian GAAP the Company was not required to account for share based compensation received by its employees from the ultimate holding company i.e. Schneider Electric SE (''the issuer''). However, Ind AS 102 requires the Indian subsidiary company to recognize the cost of share based payments to its employees from the issuer Accordingly, cost of vested shared payments has been accounted for as ‘share-based payment reserve'' as on the transition date with corresponding debit to the retained earnings. Further, amount for the year ended March 31, 2017 has been accounted as employee stock option expense in the statement of profit and loss.

G Preference Shares

The Company had issued cumulative redeemable preference shares. The preference shares carry fixed cumulative dividend which is non-discretionary Under Indian GAAP the preference shares were classified as equity and dividend payable thereon, if any, was treated as distribution of profit.

Under Ind AS, cumulative redeemable preference shares are separated into liability and equity components based on the terms of the contract. Interest on liability component is recognised using the effective interest method. Thus the preference share capital is reduced with a corresponding increase in borrowings as liability component.

H Trade Payables

Under the previous GAAP, the Company had created the lease equalisation reserves for straight lining of future rent payment under non-cancellable leases, however under Ind AS lease equalisation reserves is not required as escalation in rent is inflatory in nature.

I Incentives on exports and imports

Under the previous GAAP, duty drawback income was presented under revenue from operations, however under Ind AS duty drawback income is shown as other income. Further under the previous GAAP, duty saved on purchase of raw material under advance license scheme was presented net of cost of raw material consumed, however under Ind AS the said duty amount is presented as other income and cost of material consumed is shown as inclusive of duty saved.

J Other comprehensive income

Under Indian GAAP the Company has not presented other comprehensive income (OCI) separately Hence, it has reconciled Indian GAAP profit to profit as per Ind AS. Further, Indian GAAP profit is reconciled to total comprehensive income as per Ind AS.

K Statement of cash flows

The transition from Indian GAAP to Ind AS has not had a material impact on the statement of cash flow.

5. As per the Transfer Pricing Rules of the Income Tax Act, 1961 every company is required to get a transfer pricing study conducted to determine whether the transactions with associated enterprises were undertaken at an arm''s length basis for each financial year end. Transfer pricing study for the transaction pertaining to the year ended March 31, 2018 is currently in progress and hence adjustments if any which may arise there from have not been taken into account in these financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018 and will be effective in the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2019. However, in the opinion of the Company''s management, adjustments, if any, are not expected to be material.

6. The Company had obtained shareholders'' approval by way of a special resolution in accordance with provisions of section 197 read along with schedule V of the Act in respect of managerial remuneration to be paid to whole time director and managing director The Board of Directors of the Company in their meeting held on November 13, 2017, re-appointed whole time director and managing director for a further period of two years subject to the approval of shareholders of the Company by way of a special resolution in the ensuing Annual General Meeting as per the provisions of the Companies Act , 2013.
