In the opinion of the management, considering the revival of hospitality business, positive net worth as on 31st March, 2024, positive earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation (EBITDA) for the year ended 31st March, 2024 and year ended 31st March, 2023, increase in operations and profit during the current year, settlement of secured debts due to ARCs, settlement of loan given to subsidiary Company which was fully provided in earlier year, reversal of provision for diminution in value of investment in subsidiary Company (OHPPL), signing of term sheet for proposed sale of one of the hotel properties, issue of NCDs, considering the future business prospects and the fair value of the assets of the Company being significantly higher than the borrowings / debts, these standalone results have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of the Company's business.

57.3 Carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, loans and trade payables as at 31st March, 2024 and 31st March, 2023, approximate the fair value due to their nature. Carrying amounts of bank deposits, other financial assets, other financial liabilities and borrowings which are subsequently measured at amortised cost also approximate the fair value due to their nature in each of the periods presented. Fair value measurement of lease liabilities is not required.
57.4 Fair value hierarchy
The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable and consists of the following three levels:
Level 1 - Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 - Inputs are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in part using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
Management of the company considers that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised in the balance sheet approximate their fair values.
The following tables provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value or where fair value disclosure is required.
There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 for the years ended March 31,2024 and March 31,2023.
57.5 Valuation technique to determine fair value
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of financial instruments:
(i) Short-term financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, other current financial assets and other current financial liabilities are stated at carrying value because their carrying amounts are a reasonable approximation of the fair values due to their short-term nature.
(ii) Management uses its best judgement in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented above are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could have realised or paid in sale transactions as of respective dates. As such, fair value of financial instruments subsequent to the reporting dates may be different from the amounts reported at each reporting date.
58. Financial risk management
The Company has exposure to credit risk, funding / liquidity risk and market risk. The Company's overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial environment and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments. The Board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment of the Company's risk management framework. Risk management systems are reviewed periodically to reflect changes in market conditions and Company's activities.
(a) Credit risk :
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counterparty failure to repay or service debt according to the contractual terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses of both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as concentration of risks. Credit risk is controlled by analysing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous basis to whom the credit has been granted after obtaining necessary approvals for credit.
The financial guarantee disclosed under note no. 46.2 represents the maximum exposure to credit risk. In this regards the Company does not foresee any significant credit risk exposure.
Financial instruments that are subject to credit risk consist of trade receivables, loans, investments, cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and other financial assets. For expected credit loss of trade receivable, company follows simplified approach as per which provision is made for receivable exceeding six months/ one year based on category of receivable. This is based on historically observed default rates over the expected life of trade receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each class of financial assets. None of the other financial instruments of the company result in material concentration of credit risk.
(b) Liquidity risk :
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company cannot meet its financial obligations. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquidity and ensure that funds are available for use as per requirements. The Company consistently generated sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its financial obligations including lease liabilities as and when they fall due.
(c) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the company's position with regards to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, Board of Directors perform a comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of fixed rate and floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio. The company's interest rate risk exposure is only for floating rate borrowings. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 50 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management's assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates.
(d) Market risk
The company does not deal in transaction in currency other than its functional currency therefore it is not exposed to foreign currency exchange risk. Similarly, the company does not have exposures to interest bearing securities.
59. Capital risk management
For the purpose of the Company's capital management, capital includes issued equity capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company. The primary objective of the Company's capital management is to maximise the shareholder's value. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the requirements of the financial covenants.
