5B Operating leases Leases as lessor

The Company leases out its investment property on operating lease basis, as they do not transfer substantially all of the risk and rewards incidental to the ownership of the assets. Rental income recognised by the Company during FY 21-22 was ' 5.00 crores (previous year ' 4.47 crores) of which ' 3.59 crores relating to sub lease (previous year ' 3.29 crores). The following table sets out maturity analysis of lease payments to be received after the reporting date.

Fair Value

The fair value of investment property has been determined using external property rates available in the market. The fair value measurement for all of the investment property has been categoried as a level 3 fair value based on the inputs to the valuation techniques used. The fair valuation is carried out by independent registered valuer.

Description of Valuation Technique used:

The fair value of the investment property have been derived using the Direct Comparison Method. The direct comparison approach involves a comparison of the investment property to similar properties that have actually been sold in arms-length distance from investment property or are offered for sale in the same region. This approach demonstrates what buyers have historically been willing to pay (and sellers willing to accept) for similar properties in an open and competitive market, and is particularly useful in estimating the value of the land and properties that are typically traded on a unit basis. This approach leads to a reasonable estimation of the prevailing price. Given that the comparable instances are located in close proximity to the investment property; these instances have been assessed for their locational comparative advantages and disadvantages while arriving at the indicative price assessment for investment property.

Notes:

1. Buildings is classified as Investment property by the Company in accordance with IND AS-40 "Investment Property''.

2. The property rental income earned by the Company from its investment property all of which is leased out under operating leased amount to ' 0.75 Crore ( previous year ' 0.53 Crore). Direct operating expenses arising on the investment property all of which generated rental income in the year amounted to ' 0.11 Crore (previous year ' 0.11 Crore).

3. Fair value of Investment Property is ' 22.88 crores (31 March 2021 ' 21.22 crores).

The recoverable amount of a CGU is based on value in use. Value in use has been determined based on future cash flows, after considering current economic conditions and trends, estimated future operating results, growth rates and anticipated future economic conditions. Value in use for CGU Saiba Industries Private Limited also factors the fair value of underlying Investment Property (refer note 6).

Operating margins and growth rates for the 5 year cash flow projections have been estimated based on past experience and after considering the financial budgets/forecasts provided by the management. Cash flows beyond 5 years is estimated by capitalising the future maintainable cash flows by an appropriate capitalisation rate and then discounted using appropriate discount rate. Other key assumptions used in the estimation of the recoverable amount are set out below. The values assigned to the key assumptions represent management's assessment of future trends in the relevant industries and have been based on historical data from both external and internal sources.

With regard to assessment of recoverable value, no reasonalably possible change in any of the above key assumptions would cost the carrying amount of the CGU's to exceed their recoverable amount.

The Company has also performed sensitivity analysis calculations on the projections used and discount rate applied. Company has concluded that, given the significant headroom that exists, and the results of the sensitivity analysis performed, there is no significant risk that reasonable changes in any key assumptions would cause the carrying value of goodwill to exceed its value in use.

37 Employee benefits

(i) Defined Contribution Plans

The Company makes contributions towards superannuation fund and other retirement benefits to a defined contribution retirement benefit plan for qualifying employees. Under the plan, the Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll cost to the retirement benefit plan to fund the benefits.

(ii) Defined Benefit Plans Gratuity:

The Employees Gratuity Fund Scheme is managed by "S.H. Kelkar and Co. Ltd. Employee's Gratuity Fund". The fund has the form of trust and it is governed by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees is responsible for the administration of the plan assets including investment of the funds in accordance with the norms prescribed by the Government of India.

The contribution to the fund is made by the Company based on the actuarial valuation using the "Projected Unit Credit" Method. Gratuity is payable to all eligible employees of the Company on superannuation, death, and permanent disablement, in terms of the provisions of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.

These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risk such as: investment risk, interest rate risk, longevity risk and salary risk.

Investment risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated using a discount rate which is determined by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on government bonds. If the return on plan asset is below this rate, it will create plan deficit.

Interest risk:

A decrease in the bond interest rate will increase the plan liability; however, this will be partially offset by an increase in the plan's assets.

Longevity Risk:

The present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the best estimate of the mortality of plan participants both during and after their employment. An increase in the life expectancy of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.

Salary Risk:

The Present value of the defined benefit plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan's liability.

The Company expects to pay ' 1.17 crore (previous year ' 0.97 crore) in contributions to its defined benefit plans in 2022-23.

Based on the actuarial valuation obtained in this respect, the following table sets out the status of the gratuity plan and the amounts recognised in the Company's standalone financial statements as at balance sheet date:

A. Reconciliation of the net defined benefit (asset) liability

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for the net defined benefit (asset) liability and its components

The above sensitivity analyses have been calculated to show the movement in defined benefit obligation in isolation and assuming there are no other changes in market conditions at the reporting date. In practice, generally it does not occur. When we change one variable, it affects to others. In calculating the sensitivity, project unit credit method at the end of the reporting period has been applied.

Provident fund (Managed by the Trust set up by the Company)

The Company manages the Provident Fund plan through a Provident Fund Trust setup by the Company, for its employees which is permitted under The Employees' Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 and is actuarially valued.

The Company has an obligation to fund any shortfall on the yield of the trust's investments over the guaranteed interest rates on an annual basis. These administered rates are determined annually predominantly considering the social rather than economic factors and in most cases the actual returned earned by the Company has been higher in the past years. The actuary has provided a valuation for provident fund liabilities on the basis of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of India and based on the below provided assumptions the shortfall has been recorded in the financial statement:

C. Risk management framework

In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk like fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments.

The Company has a risk management policy which covers the credit risk and other risks associated with the financial assets and liabilities such as interest rate risks. The risk management policy is approved by the board of directors. The audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the company's risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.

i. Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company's receivables from customers and others and investments in securities made.

The carrying amount of following financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure:

Trade and other receivables

The Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the factors that may influence the credit risk of its customer base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate.

The Company uses an allowance matrix to measure the expected credit loss of trade receivables. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience over the past 3 years. Trade receivables are in default (credit impaired), if the payment are more than 730 days past due.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company held cash and cash equivalents of ' 9.91 crores at 31 March 2022 (31 March 2021: ' 30.59 crores). The cash and cash equivalents are held with banks with good credit rating.

Other bank balances

The Company held other balance of ' 1.79 crores at 31 March 2022 (31 March 2021: ' 0.80 crores).

Investments

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by generally investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have a good credit rating. The Company does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counter-parties, and does not have any significant concentration of exposures to specific industry sectors or specific country risks.

Other than trade and other receivables, the Company has no other financial assets that are past due but not impaired.

ii. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company's reputation. The Company has access to fund from debt market through loans from banks and other debt instruments.

(a) Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk in respect of transaction in foreign currency. The functional currency of the Company is primarily the local currency in which it operates.The currencies in which these transaction are primarily denominated are Indian Rupee. The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its foreign currency risk.

Sensitivity analysis

The company is mainly exposed to changes in USD and Euro. A reasonably possible strengthening (weakening) of the Indian Rupee against USD and Euro at 31 March 2022 and 2021 would have affected the measurement of financial instruments denominated in a foreign currency and affected equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases.

The gross inflows/(outflows) disclosed in the above table represent the contractual undiscounted cash flows relating to non derivative financial liabilities held for risk management purposes and which are not usually closed out before contractual maturity.

iv Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices - such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices - will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of Market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposure with in acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. Martket risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including foreign currency receivables and payables and long term debt. We are exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and the market value of our investments. Thus, our exposure to market risk is a function of investing and borrowing activities and revenue generating and operating activities in foreign currency.

(b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk can be either fair value interest rate risk or cash flow interest rate risk. Fair value interest rate risk is the risk of changes in fair values of fixed interest bearing investments because of fluctuations in the interest rates. Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of floating interest bearing investments will fluctuate because of fluctuations in the interest rates.

Exposure to interest rate risk

Since the Company does not have any significant financial assets or financial liabilities bearing floating interest rates, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not have any significant or material impact on the standalone financial statements of the Company.

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed-rate instruments

The Company does not account for any fixed-rate financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable-rate instruments

The Company does not have any financial assets or financial liabilities bearing floating interest rates. Therefore a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.

39 Capital Management

For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued capital and other equity reserves. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to safequard its ability to continue as going concern and to maintain and optimal capital structure so as to maximise shareholders value. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in the light of changes in economic environment and the requirements of the financial covenants.

As at 31 March 2022, the Company has only one class of equity shares, short term debts and finance lease obligations. Consequent to such capital structure, there are no externally imposed capital requirements. In order to maintain or achieve an optimal capital structure, the Company allocates its capital for distribution as dividend or re-investment into business based on its long term financial plans.

The Company monitors capital using adjusted net debt to equity ratio. For this purpose, adjusted net debt is defined as total debt less cash and bank balances and current investments.

42 Segment reporting
