(B) Defined Benefit Plan:-

Gratuity

In accordance with the provisions of Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, the company has defined benefit plan which provides for gratuity payment. The plan provides a lump sum gratuity payment to eligible employees at retirement or termination of their employment. The amounts are based on the respective employee's last drawn salary and the year of employment with the company. The gratuity plan is a partially funded plan.

These plans typically expose the Company to actuarial risks such as: Investment, Interest rate, longevity and salary risk:

A) Actuarial Risk: It is the risk that benefits will cost more than expected. This can arise due to one of the following reasons:

Adverse Salary Growth Experience: Salary hikes that are higher than the assumed salary escalation will result into an increase in obligation at a rate that is higher than expected.

Variabilty in mortality rates : If actual mortality rates are higher than the assumed mortality rates asssumption than the Gratuity Benefits will be paid earlier than expected. Since there is no condition of vesting on the death benefit, the acceleration of cash flow will lead to an actuarial loss or gain depending on the relative values of the assumed salary growth and discount rate.

Variabilty in withdrawal rates: If actual withdrawal rates are higher than assumed withdrawal rate assumption than the Gratuity Benfits will be paid earlier than expected.The impact of this will depend on whether the benefits are vested as at the resignation date.

B) Investment risk: For funded plans that rely on insurers for managing the assets,the value of assets certified by the insurer may not be fair value of

instruments backing the liability. In such cases, the present value of the assets is independent of the future discount rate. This can result in wide

fluctuations in the net liability or the funded status if there are significant changes in the discount rate during the inter valuation period.

C) Liquidity risk: Employees with high salaries and long durations or those higher in hierarchy,accumulate significant level of benefits. If some of such employees resign/retire from the company there can be strain on the cashflows.

D) Market risk: Market risk is a collective term for risks that are related to the changes and fluctuations of the financial markets. One acturial assumption that has material effect is the discount rate. The discount rate reflects time value of money. An increase in discount rate leads to decrease in Defined Benefit Obligation of the plan benefits and vice-versa. This assumption depends on the yields on the corporate / government bonds and hence the valuation of the liability is exposed to fluctuations in the yields as at the valuation date.

E) Legislative risk: Legislative risk is the risk of increase in the plan laibilities or reduction in the plan assets due to change in legislation / regulation.

The Government may amend the Payment of Gratuity Act thus requiring the companies to pay higher benefits to the employees. This will directly affect the present value of the Defined Benefit Obligation and the same will have to be recognised immediately in the year when any such amendement is effective.

No other post-retirement benefits are provided to the employees.

The actuarial valuation of the plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation were carried out as at March 31, 2022 by a certified actuary of the Institute of Actuaries of India. The present value of the defined benefit obligation, and the related current service cost and past service cost, were measured using the projected unit credit method.

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount 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.The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

1) Fair value of cash and deposits, trade receivables, trade payables, and other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

2) Long-term variable-rate borrowings are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, credit risk and other risk characteristics. Fair value of variable interest rate borrowings approximates their carrying values. Risk of other factors for the company is considered to be insignificant in valuation.
