All the operations of the Company are in India. All non-current assets of the Company are located in India. Accordingly, there are no separate reportable segments as per Ind AS 108, "Operating Segments".

42.2 Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and/or disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation techniques: Level 1: Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that the Company has the ability to access for the identical assets or liabilities. A financial instrument is classified as a Level 1 measurement if it is listed on an exchange. Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in active markets is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument but do not qualify as Level 1 inputs.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based in observable market data, the instruments is included in level 3. The Company has measured contingent consideration based on Level 3.

42.3 Financial Instruments not measured at fair value

Financial assets not measured at fair value includes cash and cash equivalents, loans and other receivables. These are financial assets whose carrying amounts approximate fair value largely due to their short term nature.

Additionally, financial liabilities such as trade payables, borrowings and other financial liabilities are not measured at fair value, whose carrying amounts approximate fair value largely due to the nature of these liabilities.

Carrying values were assumed to be approximate fair values for these financial instruments as they are short-term in nature and their recorded amounts approximate fair values or are receivable or payable on demand.

42.4 Financial Risk Management

The Company''s business activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, namely credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company''s risk management assessment and policies are established to identify and analyse the risk faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor such risks and compliance with the same. Risk assessment and management policies and processes are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company''s activities.

This note explains the sources of risk which the Company is exposed to and how it manages the risk.

(a) Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. Credit risk arises primarily from financial assets such as trade receivables, investments, derivative financial instruments, other balances with banks, loans and other receivables. The effective management of credit risk requires the establishment of appropriate credit risk policies and processes.

In regards to loans and advances of the Company, the credit risk is managed in accordance with the Expected Credit Losses ("ECL") policy by monitoring of credit risk basis the days past dues. The following staging criteria based on Days Past Dues (DPDs) fixed for Loan portfolio as per the Ind AS 109.

Stage 1 to Stage 2: More than 60 Days Past Due as criteria for Stage 2 classification.

Stage 2 to Stage 3: More than 120 Days Past Due as criteria for Stage 3 classification.

The Company has established a policy to perform an assessment, at the end of each reporting period, of whether a financial instrument''s credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, by considering the change in the risk of default occurring over the remaining life of the financial instrument. The Company undertakes the classification of exposures within the aforesaid stages at borrower level.

Definition of default

A default on a financial asset is when the counterparty fails to make the contractual payments within 120 days of when they fall due. Accordingly, the financial assets shall be classified as Stage 3, if on the reporting date, it has been 120 days and above past due. Non-payment on another obligation of the same customer is also considered as a Stage 3.

The Calculation of ECL

ECL is a probability weighted credit losses (i.e. present value of all cash shortfalls) over the expected life of the financial instruments. Cash shortfalls are the difference between the cash flows that the entity is entitled to receive on account of contract and the cash flows that the entity expects to receive.

The mechanics of the ECL calculations are outlined below and the key elements are as follows:

(i) Portfolio Segmentation

The Company is engaged in the business of providing unsecured loans to SMEs and individuals with proprietary businesses, the borrower profiles are having similar risk characteristics across the loan book.

(ii) Exposure at default (EAD)

Exposure at Default gives an estimate of the amount outstanding when the borrower defaults. It is the total amount of an asset the entity is exposed to at the time of default. The exposure at default for the loan is outstanding principal and accrued interest.

(iii) Probability of default (PD)

Probability of Default is calculated based on historical default rate summary from previous financial periods using historical analysis.

(iv) Loss Given Default (LGD)

LGD for loan portfolio will be calculated at a portfolio level based upon the actual recovery data. In case of insufficient recovery information due to low/no defaults, a proxy LGD based on industry practice would be used.

(b) 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.

(c) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

(i) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is not exposed to any foreign currency risk as at the respective reporting dates.

(ii) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. However, the Company is not significantly exposed to interest rate risk as at the respective reporting dates.

(ii) Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market traded price. The Company is exposed to market price risk, which arises from FVTPL Investments, derivative financial instruments and Securities held for trade which are valued using quoted prices in active markets (level 1 investments). A sensitivity analysis demonstrating the impact of change in market prices of these instruments from the prices existing as at the reporting date is given below:

43 Capital 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 objectives of the Company''s capital management are to ensure that the Company complies with the externally imposed capital requirements and to maximise the shareholder value.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it according to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its activities. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the entity may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors the return on capital, as well as debt to equity ratio, which is total debt divided by total equity. The Company''s policy is to keep the optimum debt to equity ratio.
