41. Disclosure requirements Under Ind AS 19 (“Employee Benefits”)
a. Defined benefit obligation - Gratuity
The Gratuity scheme is a defined benefit plan, that provides for a lumpsum payment upon death while in employment
or at the time of separation. Based on rules of the scheme, the benefits are calculated on basis of last drawn salary and
the period of service rendered and paid as lumpsum. There is a vesting period of 5 years. The plan invloves the following
risks that affect the liabilities and cash flows
1. Interest rates risk:
The defined benefit obligation calculated using a discount rate based on government bonds. If bond yields fall,
the defined benefit obligation will tend to increase.
2. Salary inflation risk:
Higher than expected increases in salary will increase the defined benefit obligation.
3. Demographic risks:
This is the risk of volatility of results due to unexpected nature of decrements that include mortality attrition, disability
and retirement. The effects of this decrement on the DBO depend upon the combination of salary increase, discount
rate, and vesting criteria and therefore not very straight forward. It is important not to overstate withdrawal rate
because the cost of retirement benefit of a short service employees will be less compared to long service employees.
5. 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.
Variability in mortality rates: If actual mortality rates are higher than assumed mortality rate assumption 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.
Variability in withdrawal rates: If actual withdrawal rates are higher than assumed withdrawal rate assumption than
the Gratuity benefits will be paid earlier than expected. The impact of this will depend on whether the benefits are
vested as at the resignation date
6. Investment Risk:
For funded plans that rely on insurers for managing the assets, the value of assets certified by the insurer may not be
the 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.

44. Financial Risk Management framework


The company is engaged in finance business and like any other NBFC is exposed to risks such as credit risk, liquidity risk,
market risk, operational risks etc. The company follows pro-active risk management practices to mitigate these risks. The risk
management policies are periodically reviewed by the Risk Management Committee and Audit Committee.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that arises when the borrowers of the company are unable to meet the financial obligations.
The Company has a comprehensive and well - defined credit policy, which encompasses a credit approval process for all
businesses along with guidelines for mitigating the risks associated with them. The appraisal process includes a detailed
risk assessment of the borrowers, physical verifications and field visits. The company has a robust post sanction monitoring
process supervision and follow-up to identify portfolio trends and early warning signals. This enables the company to
implement necessary changes to the credit policy, whenever the need arises. Also being in asset finance, the company’s
lending is secured by adequate collaterals from the borrowers.
Repayment by individual customers and portfolio is tracked regularly and required steps for recovery are taken through
follow ups and legal recourse.

In assessing the impairment of financial loans under Expected credit Loss (ECL) Model, the assets have been
segmented into three stages. The three stages reflect the general pattern of credit deterioration of a financial
instrument. The difference in accounting between stages, relate to the recognition of expected credit losses and
the measurement of interest income
The Company categorises loan assets into stages primarily based on the Days of Past Due Status.
Stage 1 : 0-30 days past due
Stage 2 : 31-90 days past due
Stage 3 : More than 90 days past due
Expected Credit Loss (ECL)
As a result of adoption of IndAs , the company has followed Ind As 109 for the calculation of expected credit
loss. The measurement of ECL involves three main components Viz,
Exposure at default (EAD), Probability of Default (PD) and Loss Given Default (LGD).
Definition of Default
If the borrower is past due for more than 90 days on any material credit obligation to the Company; or the
borrower is unlikely to pay his credit obligations to the Company in full, it is considered as default.
Probability of Default (PD)
The Probability of Default is an estimate of the likelihood of an account getting into default over a given time
horizon. The PD model reflects the probability of default, taking into consideration the residual tenor of each
contract and it relies not only on historical information and the current economic environment, but also considers
forward-looking information such as the forecasts on the macroeconomic factors like GDP , Inflation rate etc.
Loss Given Default
The Loss Given Default is an estimate of the loss arising in the case where a default occurs at a given time. It is
based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due and those that the Company would expect to
receive, including from the realisation of any collateral. It is usually expressed as a percentage of the EAD
Exposure at Default
Exposure at Default (EAD) is defined as the sum of Principal outstanding and interest accrued at the reporting
date
Collateral Valuation
To mitigate its credit risks on financial assets, the Company seeks to use collateral, where possible. The collateral
comes in various forms, such as movable and immovable assets, guarantees, etc.
Write offs
Financial assets are written off either partially or in their entirety only when the Company has no reasonable
expectation of recovery. If the amount to be written off is greater than the accumulated loss allowance, the
difference recorded as an expense in the period of write off. Any subsequent recoveries against such loans are
credited to the statement of profit and loss

Market Risk
Market Risk is the risk arising in financial instruments due to changes in market variables such as interest rates, liquidity etc.
The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while
maximising the return.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest Rate Risk is the possibility of loss arising from changes in the value of financial instruments as result of changes in market
variables such as interest rates and other asset prices. The company’s exposure to market risk is a function of asset liability
management activities. Except the borrowings from banks, the interest rates of which are linked to MCLR, other borrowings are
fixed rate instruments. The Company has not availed any foreign currency borrowings. The major portion of lending is at fixed
rates.
The interest rate profile of the interest bearing financial instruments is as follows (` Lakhs)

Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems or from external
events.
The operational risks of the company are managed through comprehensive internal control systems and procedures and key
back up processes.
Further submission of exceptional reports for procedural lapses at the branches level, risk-based audits on a regular basis across
all business units/functions and IT disaster recovery plans are put in place for evaluating key operational risks the processes of
which are meant to adequately mitigate them on an on-going basis.

Notes forming an integral part of the financial statements for the Year ended
31st March 2020
1 Financial Asset at amortised cost
The Company has applied effective interest rate for recognition of income from financial assets classified and
subsequently measured at amortised cost. The provision for loss of loan assets (i.e., Impairment) has been made as per
expected credit loss method on financial assets as per Ind AS 109 while it has been provided on a percentage basis as
per RBI provisioning norms/ directions under previous GAAP. The adoption of this treatment had resulted in a decrease
in other equity of ` 480.80 lakhs as at 01.04.2018 and ` 490.60 lakhs as at 31.03.2019. The profit for the year ended
31.03.2019 is reduced by ` 9.81 lakhs
2.a Financial liabilities at amortised cost
As required under the Ind AS 109, transactions costs incurred towards origination of Financial liabilities have been
deducted from the carrying amount of financial liability on initial recognition. These costs are recognised in the statement
of profit and loss over the tenor of the financial liability as interest expense, computed using the effective interest rate
method.Under the previous GAAP, these transaction costs were charged to the statement of profit and loss as and when
incurred. Consequently, on the date of transition (01.04.2018) retained earnings have been increased by ` 120.01 Lakhs
and ` 98.35 as at 31st March, 2019. The profit for the year ended 31.03.2019 is reduced by ` 21.66 lakhs.
2.b Preference shares classified as financial liability
Under previous GAAP, Non-convertible Preference shares are considered as part of share capital and dividend declared and
paid on those preference shares have been apportioned directly from other equity. Ind AS 32 requires the classification
of non-convertible financial instruments as financial liability and not as equity. Consequently, the preference shares are
classified as financial liability and dividend payable (including dividend distribution tax) on the same are charged into
the statement of profit or loss during the period. This has resulted in decrease in profit for the year ended 31.03.2019
by ` 166.02 lakhs.
3 Defined benefit Obligation
Under previous GAAP, remeasurement gain/loss on defined benefit obligation (gratuity), and other long term employee
benefits (Leave salary) arising primarily due to change in actuarial assumptions was recognised as employee benefits
expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss. Under Ind AS 19, such remeasurement gain/loss relating to defined
benefit plans is recognised in Other Comprehensive Income as per the requirements of Ind AS 19- Employee benefits.
Consequently, the related tax effect of the same has also been recognised in Other Comprehensive Income.
Remeasurement of gratuity and leave encashment resulted in decrease in retained earnings by ` 26.36 lakhs as at
01.04.2018 and by ` 42.55 lakhs as at 31.03.2019. During the year 2018-19 a loss of ` 4.54 lakhs is recognised in Other
Comprehensive income and ` 10.10 lakhs in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
4 Lease under Ind AS 116
Under previous GAAP, operating lease payments are recognised as expense in the statement of profit and loss on straight
line basis over the lease term. Ind AS 116 requires the Company to recognise a lease liability and Right of use asset
with respect to the operating leases. The Company applies the standard from 01.04.2019 in modified retrospective
approach by restating the comparative figures for the year ended 31.03.2019 by recognising the right of use asset and
lease liability for the remianing lease payments as at the date of transition (i.e., 01.04.2018). Consequently, the retained
earnings and profit for the period ended 31.03.2019 is reduced by ` 64.96 lakhs
5 Fair Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment (“PPE”)
The Company has elected to measure items of Land, Buildings and Plant and Machinery at fair value as at the date of
transition to Ind AS and considered it as deemed cost. Hence, at the date of transition to Ind AS (i.e., 01.04.2018), an
increase of ` 903.28 Lakhs was recognised in Property, Plant and Equipment with corresponding increase in Retained
Earnings.
Since the Company has elected for fair valuation of PPE as at the date of transition to Ind AS, the Revaluation Reserve
existing on the date of transition under Previous GAAP amounting to ` 1,735.96 Lakhs has been transferred to the
Retained Earnings.
6 De-recognition of Intangible assets and Intangible assets under development
The carrying amount of Intangible asset under GAAP of ` 297.73 Lakhs has been derecognized on transition to Ind AS
since no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The loss arising from such de-recognition has
been transferred to the retained earnings on the date of transition.
The carrying amount of intangible asset under GAAP as at 31.03.2019 of ` 347.12 Lakhs has been derecognised.
Accordingly ` 49.52 Lakhs charged as depreciation and amortisation under previous GAAP reversed in the Statement of
Profit or Loss and ` 98.91 lakhs has been recognised as expenses in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
