Risks faced by the Company.

Global, economic and regulatory situation Consistent approach of the Market towards technology
(digital products and services) is subject to fluctuations,
which depend on both economic and regulatory factors of
the markets in which they operate.
Due to a substantial increase in unemployment rates across
certain countries in which we operate (including the United
States, United Kingdom, and MEA regions) governments have
imposed restrictive legislations limiting companies in those
countries partnering with us, or could inhibit our ability to
staff client projects in a timely manner, which may impact our
revenue and profitability.

CORPORATE STATUTORY FINANCIAL
OVERVIEW REPORTS STATEMENTS

Global, economic and regulatory situation New and changing regulatory compliances, corporate
governance and public disclosure requirements add
uncertainty to our compliance policies and increase our costs
of compliance.
Per-country restrictions on visas, increases in required
minimum wage levels for visa-dependent employees, and /
or increased enforcement may affect our ability to compete,
resulting in various adversities.
Supply-side risks The economic fallout and the subsequent recovery from
COVID-19 could decrease our customers’ spending on
technology. The economic fallout results in supply chain
disruptions which might adversely impact the demand for
prospective projects, cause cancellations or ramp-downs of
existing projects, increased requests for furloughs, increase
pricing pressure, higher travel restrictions, impose supply-side
constraints, and adversely impact cash conversion cycles.
Dependence on skilled manpower As an enterprise software products company with solutions
addressing niche technologies, there is greater dependency
on manpower with specialized domain skills both to work
on the roadmap of our platform and to deploy solutions at
customer locations. There is always a threat of manpower
attrition and the risk of not being able to scale up skilled
expertise on time resulting in delays in achieving our
milestones.
Our success depends largely on our management team and
key personnel and our ability to attract and retain them.
Long sales cycles Long sales cycles because of restrictions on travel, marketing
events, and in-person client meetings may result in sub-
optimal branding and delays in our sales and commercial
processes. Any delay is detrimental to the business. And sales
delay can be equally adverse on our revenue. Long sales
cycles due to various factors directly affect the timing of
predicted revenues.
Dependence on business partners Globally, we are dependent on many system integrators and
partners to improve our reach to global markets and ride on
their brand. While we are scaling and expanding our reach
to global markets and exploring direct sales opportunities,
there will be pressures on margins in the immediate term. We
may engage in acquisitions, strategic investments, strategic
partnerships or alliances, or other ventures that may or may
not be successful given the current pandemic situation.
Changes in the policies of the Indian Government or political
instability may adversely affect the economic conditions
in India generally, which could impact our business and
prospects.
Proprietary technology There can be instances of misappropriation of our
technological expertise or reverse engineering of our
solutions. Legal standards and scope of protection in many
countries may not provide adequate protection to our
proprietary technology/technologies. We have filed copyright
and patent for around four of our innovative IPs to avoid
misappropriation.

1. Company Overview
Intense Technologies Limited (the Company) is a public limited company domiciled and incorporated in India under the
Companies Act, 1956 and has its registered Office at A1, Vikrampuri, Secunderabad – 500 009. The company has its primary
listings on BSE Limited and NSE Limited. The company is engaged in the business of developing software products that are
designed for data analytics and providing tech-enabled services for organizations. The company platform is cloud-based and
designed to seamlessly integrate with varied client’s existing systems.
2. Significant accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of Financial Statements
These Standalone Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS), under the
historical cost convention on accrual basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair values, the
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (‘’the Act’’) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied, except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted
or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use. The Financial
statements are presented in Indian Rupees unless otherwise stated.
2.2 Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Use of Estimates
The preparation of Standalone Financial Statements requires estimates on assumptions to be made that affect the
reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure relating to Contingent assets and liabilities as on date
of financial statements and reported amount of Revenue and expenses during the reported period. Management
believes that the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual
results could differ from these estimates and differences between the actual results and estimates are recognized
where the results are known or materialized.
(b) Operating Cycle
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification.
An asset is treated as current when it is:
• Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle.
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading.
• Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in a normal operating cycle.
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period.
The Company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
The Company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
(c) Foreign currencies transactions
The financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, which is also the functional currency of the Company and
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.
(d) Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date
the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into the functional currency at spot rates of exchange at the reporting date.

Notes to Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

(e) Fair value measurement


Fair value is the price 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 fair value measurement is based on the presumption
that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the
most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when
pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that
would use the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data
are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of
unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized
within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement as a whole:
Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is
directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is
unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines
whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest
level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of
the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained above.
(f) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and
the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the
fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment
and excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. The specific recognition criteria described
below must also be met before revenue is recognised.
The Company’s contracts with customers include an obligation to transfer multiple products and provision of
services to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered for recognition and measurement when
the contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to contract are committed to
perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable.
The Company derives revenues primarily from IT services comprising software development and related services,
cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and licensing of software products.

Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a “right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the
license is made available to the customer. Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a “right to access” is
recognized over the access period.

The Company presents revenues net of indirect taxes in its Statement of Profit and Loss.

Notes to Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

Sale of Products
Revenue from Sale of Products is recognised when control of the goods are constructively transferred to the
customer at an amount that reflects the consideration entitled in exchange for those goods.

Sale of services
Revenue from provision of services is recognised based on completion of defined milestones in contracts
executed with customers and approved by customer.

Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the
applicable interest rate. Interest income is included under the head “other income” in the statement of profit and
loss.
Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the Company’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally
when shareholders approve the dividend.
Other income
Revenue in respect of other income is recognized when a reasonable certainty as to its realization exists.
(g) Taxes on Income
Income-tax expense comprises of current tax (i.e., amount of tax for the period determined in accordance with
the income-tax law), Company opted Tax rate U/s 115BAA and deferred tax charge or credit (reflecting the tax
effects of timing differences between accounting income and taxable income for the period).
The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
assets are recognised only to the extent there is a reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future;
However, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets
are recognised only if there is a virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed
as at the balance sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/virtually
certain (as the case may be) to be realised.
Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset to the extent to which the Company has a legally
enforceable right to set off and they relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.
(h) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs
directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant and equipment are ready for use, as
intended by the Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an
estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life.
When the tax incurred on purchase of assets is not recoverable from the taxation authority, the tax paid is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset.
Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when incurred.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided on a written down value method based on the useful lives estimated by
the management which are in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.The management believes
that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are
likely to be used.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.
The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and
adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

Notes to Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

(i) Intangible assets


Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Intangible assets with finite
lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment. The amortization period and
the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each
reporting period. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised on a straight-line
basis from the date that they available for use in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms
part of the carrying value of another asset.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software product development costs are expensed as incurred unless
technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, the future economic benefits are probable,
the Company has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software, and the costs can be measured
reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labor, and overhead costs that are
directly attributable to prepare the asset for its intended use.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when
the asset is derecognised.
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their
carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the
higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss
is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount
of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised
recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior
years.
(j) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement
at the inception of the lease. The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent
on the use of a specific asset or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that
right is not explicitly specified in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to April 1, 2016, the Company has determined whether the arrangement contains
lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Company as a lessee
A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers substantially
all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Company is classified as a finance lease.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense in the statement of profit and loss on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.

(k) Provisions
General
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a
past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle
the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to a
provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that
reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision
due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

Notes to Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

(l) Employee benefits


Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-
term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus and ex-gratia. The undiscounted
amount of short-term employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognised as an
expense as the related service is rendered by employees.
Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The Company has no
obligation other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The Company recognizes contribution
payable to the provident fund scheme as an expense when an employee renders the related service.
The Company provides defined benefit gratuity plan for the employees in India, which requires contributions to be
made to a separately administered fund.
Liabilities with regard to these defined benefit plans are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an
external actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit method. These defined benefit plans
expose the Company to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk and market risk.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, are recognized immediately in the balance sheet
with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
(m) Dividends
Final dividends on shares are recorded as a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim dividends
are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Company’s Board of Directors.
(n) Earning per share:
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is
calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the company by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit
or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for
the effect of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which include all stock options granted to employees.
(o) Provisions and contingent liabilities
Restructuring
A provision for restructuring is recognised when the Company has approved a detailed and formal restructuring
plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly. Future operating costs are not
provided.
Onerous contracts
A provision for onerous contracts is recognised when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from
a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision is
measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net
cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the Company recognizes any impairment loss
on the assets associated with that contract.
Reimbursement rights
Expected reimbursements for expenditures required to settle a provision are recognised only when receipt of such
reimbursements is virtually certain. Such reimbursements are recognised as a separate asset in the balance sheet,
with a corresponding credit to the specific expense for which the provision has been made.
Contingent liabilities
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may,
but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation
in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
(p) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.

Financial assets
Initial recognition and measurement

(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost.


A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective
is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give
rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.

(ii) Financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a
business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has made an irrevocable election for
its investments, which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income based on its business model.

(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
A financial asset, which is not categorized in any of the above categories, is subsequently fair valued through
profit or loss. All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus associated transaction costs, in the case
of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a
time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the
trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, a ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortized cost if both the
following conditions are met:
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows,
and Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on
acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance
income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss. This category
generally applies to trade and other receivables.

Equity investments:
In respect of equity investments, when an entity prepares separate financial statements, Ind AS 27 requires it to
account for its investments in subsidiaries and associates either:

(a) at cost; or
(b) in accordance with Ind AS 109.

If a first-time adopter measures such an investment at cost in accordance with Ind AS 27, it shall measure that
investment at one of the following amounts in its separate opening Ind AS Balance Sheet:

(a) Cost determined in accordance with Ind AS 27; or


(b) Deemed cost. The deemed cost of such an investment shall be its:

fair value at the entity’s date of transition to Ind ASs in its separate financial statements; or
previous GAAP carrying amount at that date.
A first-time adopter may choose either (i) or (ii) above to measure its investment in each subsidiary or associate
that it elects to measure using a deemed cost.

Notes to Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

Since the company is a first-time adopter, it has measured its investment in subsidiary and associate at deemed
cost in accordance with Ind AS 27 by taking previous GAAP carrying amount.

Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is
primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when:

a) the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
b) the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset, and

the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has
transferred control of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure on trade receivables or
any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the
scope of Ind AS 18.
ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the
statement of profit and loss (P&L).

Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans, borrowings and payables are
recognised net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and
other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair
value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

Derecognition
Financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms,
or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as
the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective
carrying amounts is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.
(q) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments
that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in
value. For this purpose, “short-term” means investments having maturity of three months or less from the date of
investment. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of our cash management are
included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
(r) Subsequent Events:
There are no significant events that occurred after the balance sheet date.

(s) Recent accounting Pronouncements:


The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31, 2023, MCA amended
the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, as below:

amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment
and the impact of the amendment is insignificant in the Standalone Financial Statements.
Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors – This amendment has introduced a

accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The effective date for adoption of this amendment is
annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the amendment and there is no
impact on its Standalone Financial Statements.
Ind AS 12, Income Taxes – This amendment has narrowed the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it
does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. The effective date for
adoption of this amendment is annual periods beginning on or after April 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the
amendment and there is no impact on its Standalone Financial Statements.

Formula adopted for above Ratios:


Current Ratio = Current Assets / (Total Current Liabilities – Security Deposits payable on Demand – Current maturities

Debt-Equity Ratio = Total Debt / Total Equity
Debt Service Coverage Ratio = (EBITDA – Current Tax) / (Principal Repayment + Gross Interest on term loans)
Return on Equity Ratio = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Equity
Inventory Turnover Ratio (Average Inventory days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Inventories)
Trade receivables Turnover Ratio (Average Receivables days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade receivables)
Trade Payables Turnover Ratio (Average Payable days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade payables)
Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio = (Inventory Turnover Ratio + Trade receivables turnover ratio – Trade payables
turnover ratio)
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Net Revenue
Return on Capital employed = (Profit Before Tax + Interest) / (Average of (Equity + Total Long-term debt))
Return on Investment (Assets) = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Assets

to our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements under the provisions of the act and the rules made thereunder, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s code of ethics. We believe that
the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Consolidated Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of Consolidated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)
1. Corporate Overview
Intense Technologies Limited (the Company) is a public limited company domiciled and incorporated in India under the
Companies Act, 1956 and has its registered Office at A1, Vikrampuri, Secunderabad – 500 009. The company has its primary
listings on BSE Limited and NSE Limited. The company is engaged in the business of developing software products that are
designed for data analytics and providing tech-enabled services for organizations. The company platform is cloud-based and
designed to seamlessly integrate with varied client’s existing systems.
Intense together with it’s subsidaries is hereinafter referred to as “the Group.”
2. Significant accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation
These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standard (Ind AS),
under the historical cost convention on accrual basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at
fair values, the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) and guidelines issued by the Securities and Exchange
Board of India (SEBI). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and relevant amendment rules issued thereafter.
Accounting policies have been consistently applied, except where a newly issued accounting standard is initially adopted
or a revision to an existing accounting standard requires a change in the accounting policy hitherto in use.
The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in INR and all values are rounded to the nearest thousands, except
where otherwise indicated.
2.2 Basis of consolidation
Intense Technologies Limited consolidates entities which it owns or controls. The Consolidated Financial Statements
comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary companies as disclosed in Note 39. Control exists
when the parent has power over the entity, is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the
entity and has the ability to affect those returns by using its power over the entity. Power is demonstrated through
existing rights that give the ability to direct relevant activities, those which significantly affect the entity’s returns.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date control commences until the date control ceases.
The financial statements of the Group companies are consolidated on a line-by-line basis and intra-group balances
and transactions including unrealized gain / loss from such transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. These
financial statements are prepared by applying uniform accounting policies in use at the Group. Noncontrolling interests
which represent part of the net profit or loss and net assets of subsidiaries that are not, directly or indirectly, owned or
controlled by the Holding company, are to be excluded.
2.3 Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Use of Estimates
The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements requires estimates on assumptions to be made that affect the
reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure relating to Contingent assets and liabilities as on date
of financial statements and reported amount of Revenue and expenses during the reported period. Management
believes that the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual
results could differ from these estimates and differences between the actual results and estimates are recognized
where the results are known or materialized.
(b) Operating Cycle
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current/ non-current classification. An asset
is treated as current when it is:
• Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle
• Held primarily for the purpose of trading.
• Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

All other assets are classified as non-current.


A liability is current when:
• It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle.
• It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
• There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the
reporting period.
The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current.
The Group has identified twelve months as its operating cycle.
(c) Foreign currencies
The Group’s Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Indian rupees, which is also the parent company’s
functional currency. For each entity the Group determines the functional currency and items included in the financial
statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency.
(d) Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency
spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. However, for practical reasons, the Group uses
an average rate if the average approximates the actual rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the
reporting date.
Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss with
the exception of the following:
• Exchange differences arising on monetary items that forms part of a reporting entity’s net investment in a
foreign operation are recognized in profit or loss in the separate financial statements of the reporting entity
or the individual financial statements of the foreign operation, as appropriate. In the financial statements
that include the foreign operation and the reporting entity (e.g., Consolidated Financial Statements when the
foreign operation is a subsidiary), such exchange differences are recognized initially in OCI. These exchange
differences are reclassified from equity to profit or loss on disposal of the net investment.
(e) Group companies
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into INR at the rate of exchange
prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit or loss are translated at exchange rates prevailing
at the dates of the transactions. For practical reasons, the group uses an average rate to translate income and
expense items, if the average rate approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. The exchange
differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognized in OCI. On disposal of a foreign operation, the
component of OCI relating to that particular foreign operation is recognized in profit or loss.
Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero at the date of transition,
viz., April 1, 2016. Gain or loss on a subsequent disposal of any foreign operation excludes translation differences
that arose before the date of transition but includes only translation differences arising after the transition date.
(f) Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price 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 fair value measurement is based on the presumption
that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
In the principal market for the asset or liability, or In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous
market for the asset or liability The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when
pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate
economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that
would use the asset in its highest and best use.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data
are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of
unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized
within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair
value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input is significant to the fair value. Measurement is
directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input is significant to the fair value. Measurement is
unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines
whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis
of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy as explained
above.
(g) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the
revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is measured at the fair
value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and
excluding taxes or duties collected on behalf of the government. The specific recognition criteria described below
must also be met before revenue is recognised.
The Group contracts with customers include an obligation to transfer multiple products and provision of services
to a customer. Revenues from customer contracts are considered for recognition and measurement when the
contract has been approved, in writing, by the parties to the contract, the parties to contract are committed to
perform their respective obligations under the contract, and the contract is legally enforceable.
The Group derives revenues primarily from IT services comprising software development and related services,
cloud and infrastructure services, maintenance, consulting and licensing of software products.
Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a “right to use” the licenses is recognized at the time the
license is made available to the customer. Revenue from licenses where the customer obtains a “right to access” is
recognized over the access period.
The Group presents revenues net of indirect taxes in its Statement of Profit and Loss.

Sale of Products
Revenue from Sale of Products is recognised when control of the goods are constructively transferred to the
customer at an amount that reflects the consideration entitled in exchange for those goods.

Sale of Services
Revenue from provision of services is recognised based on completion of defined milestones in contracts
executed with customers and approved by customer.
Interest income
Interest income is recognized on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the
applicable interest rate. Interest income is included under the head “other income” in the statement of profit and
loss.
Dividend income
Dividend income is recognized when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established, which is generally
when shareholders approve the dividend.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

Other income
Revenue in respect of other income is recognized when a reasonable certainty as to its realization exists.
(h) Taxes on Income
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or payable
to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted
or substantively enacted, at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable
income.
Current income tax relating to items recognized outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either
in other comprehensive income or in equity). Current tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying
transaction either in OCI or directly in equity. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns
with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provision
where appropriate.
The deferred tax charge or credit and the corresponding deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognised using the
tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax
assets are recognised only to the extent there is a reasonable certainty that the assets can be realised in future;
however, where there is unabsorbed depreciation or carried forward loss under taxation laws, deferred tax assets
are recognised only if there is a virtual certainty supported by convincing evidence that sufficient future taxable
income will be available against which such deferred tax assets can be realised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed as
at the balance sheet date and written down or written up to reflect the amount that is reasonably/virtually certain
(as the case may be) to be realised.
Current tax and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset to the extent to which the Company has a legally
enforceable right to set off and they relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.
(i) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Costs
directly attributable to acquisition are capitalized until the property, plant and equipment are ready for use, as
intended by the Management. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived after determining an
estimate of an asset’s expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life.
When the tax incurred on purchase of assets is not recoverable from the taxation authority, the tax paid is
recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset.
Repairs and maintenance costs are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss when incurred.
Depreciation on fixed assets is provided on a written down value method based on the useful lives estimated by
the management which are in accordance with Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.The management believes
that these estimated useful lives are realistic and reflect fair approximation of the period over which the assets are
likely to be used.
An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on
derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying
amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognised.
The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and
adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
(j) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Intangible assets with finite
lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment. The amortization period and
the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each
reporting period. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised on a straight-line
basis from the date that they available for use in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms
part of the carrying value of another asset.
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Software product development costs are expensed as incurred unless
technical and commercial feasibility of the project is demonstrated, the future economic benefits are probable,

the Company has an intention and ability to complete and use or sell the software, and the costs can be measured
reliably. The costs which can be capitalized include the cost of material, direct labor, and overhead costs that are
directly attributable to prepare the asset for its intended use.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when
the asset is derecognised.
Intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their
carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the purpose of impairment testing, the recoverable amount (i.e. the
higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value-in-use) is determined on an individual asset basis.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss
is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the estimated recoverable amount
of the asset. An impairment loss is reversed in the Statement of Profit and Loss if there has been a change in the
estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. The carrying amount of the asset is increased to its revised
recoverable amount, provided that this amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been
determined (net of any accumulated depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior
years.
(k) Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is (or contains) a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement
at the inception of the lease.
The arrangement is, or contains, a lease if fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset
or assets and the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified
in an arrangement.
For arrangements entered into prior to 1 April 2016, the Group has determined whether the arrangement contains
lease on the basis of facts and circumstances existing on the date of transition.
Group as a lessee
A lease is classified at the inception date as a finance lease or an operating lease. A lease that transfers substantially
all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the Group is classified as a finance lease.
Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the statement of profit and loss.
(l) Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event,
it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of profit and loss net of any reimbursement.
If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that
reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision
due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
(m) Employee benefits
Employee benefits payable wholly within twelve months of receiving employee services are classified as short-
term employee benefits. These benefits include salaries and wages, bonus and ex-gratia. The undiscounted
amount of short-term employee benefits to be paid in exchange for employee services is recognised as an
expense as the related service is rendered by employees.

Retirement benefit in the form of provident fund is a defined contribution scheme. The Group has no obligation
other than the contribution payable to the provident fund. The Group recognizes contribution payable to the
provident fund scheme as an expense when an employee renders the related service.

The Group operates a defined benefit gratuity plan in India, which requires contributions to be made to a
separately administered fund. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is determined based
on actuarial valuation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2023
(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

Liabilities with regard to these defined benefit plans are determined by actuarial valuation, performed by an
external actuary, at each Balance Sheet date using the projected unit credit method. These defined benefit plans
expose the Company to actuarial risks, such as longevity risk, interest rate risk and market risk.

Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, are recognized immediately in the balance sheet
with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur.
Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
(n) Dividends
Final dividends on shares are recorded as a liability on the date of approval by the shareholders and interim
dividends are recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the Group’s Board of Directors.
(o) Earnings per share
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is
calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which
includes all stock options granted to employees.
(p) Provisions, contingent liabilities
Restructuring
A provision for restructuring is recognized when the Company has approved a detailed and formal restructuring
plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly. Future operating costs are not
provided.
Onerous contracts
A provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from
a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract. The provision is
measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net
cost of continuing with the contract. Before a provision is established, the Company recognizes any impairment loss
on the assets associated with that contract.
Reimbursement rights
Expected reimbursements for expenditures required to settle a provision are recognized only when receipt of such
reimbursements is virtually certain. Such reimbursements are recognized as a separate asset in the balance sheet,
with a corresponding credit to the specific expense for which the provision has been made.
Contingent liabilities
A disclosure for a contingent liability is made when there is a possible obligation or a present obligation that may,
but probably will not, require an outflow of resources. Where there is a possible obligation or a present obligation
in respect of which the likelihood of outflow of resources is remote, no provision or disclosure is made.
(q) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

(i) Financial assets carried at amortized cost.


A financial asset is subsequently measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective
is to hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give
rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.

(All amounts are in Indian Rupees in thousands, except share data and unless otherwise stated)

(ii) Financial assets carried at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI).
A financial asset is subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if it is held within a
business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets
and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Company has made an irrevocable election for
its investments, which are classified as equity instruments to present the subsequent changes in fair value in other
comprehensive income based on its business model.

(iii) Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL).
A financial asset, which is not categorized in any of the above categories, is subsequently fair valued through
profit or loss. All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus associated transaction costs, in the case
of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a
time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the
trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, a ‘debt instrument’ is measured at the amortized cost if both the
following conditions are met:
The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets for collecting contractual cash flows,
and Contractual terms of the asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding.
After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest rate (EIR) method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on
acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance
income in the profit or loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit or loss. This category
generally applies to trade and other receivables.

Equity investments:
In respect of equity investments, when an entity prepares separate financial statements, Ind AS 27 requires it to
account for its investments in subsidiaries and associates either:
(a) at cost; or
(b) in accordance with Ind AS 109.

If a first-time adopter measures such an investment at cost in accordance with Ind AS 27, it shall measure that
investment at one of the following amounts in its separate opening Ind AS Balance Sheet:
(a) Cost determined in accordance with Ind AS 27; or
(b) Deemed cost. The deemed cost of such an investment shall be its:

(i) fair value at the entity’s date of transition to Ind ASs in its separate financial statements; or
previous GAAP carrying amount at that date.

A first-time adopter may choose either (i) or (ii) above to measure its investment in each subsidiary or associate
that it elects to measure using a deemed cost.
Since the company is a first-time adopter, it has measured its investment in subsidiary and associate at deemed
cost in accordance with Ind AS 27 by taking previous GAAP carrying amount.

Derecognition
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is
primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company’s balance sheet) when:

a) the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
b) the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset, and

the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
the Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset but has
transferred control of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
In accordance with Ind AS 109, the Company applies expected credit loss (ECL) model for measurement and
recognition of impairment loss on the following financial assets and credit risk exposure on trade receivables or
any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the
scope of Ind AS 18.

ECL impairment loss allowance (or reversal) recognized during the period is recognized as income/ expense in the
statement of profit and loss (P&L).

Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and in the case of loans, borrowings and payables are
recognised net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For trade and
other payables maturing within one year from the Balance Sheet date, the carrying amounts approximate fair
value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

Derecognition
Financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.
When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms,
or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as
the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective
carrying amounts is recognised in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.
(r) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments
that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in
value. For this purpose, “short-term” means investments having maturity of three months or less from the date of
investment. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of our cash management are
included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which
includes all stock options granted to employees.
(s) Subsequent Events:
There are no significant events that occurred after the balance sheet date.
(t) Trade receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using effective
interest method, less provision for impairment.
(u) Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Company prior to the end of the financial
year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not
due within twelve months after the reporting period. They are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently
measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
(v) Recent accounting Pronouncements:
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards
under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. On March 31, 2023,
MCA amended the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2023, as below:

Inventory Turnover Ratio (Average Inventory days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Inventories)
Trade receivables Turnover Ratio (Average Receivables days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade receivables)
Trade Payables Turnover Ratio (Average Payable days) = 365 / (Net Revenue / Average Trade payables)
Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio = (Inventory Turnover Ratio + Trade receivables turnover ratio – Trade payables
turnover ratio)
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Net Revenue
Return on Capital employed = (Profit Before Tax + Interest) / (Average of (Equity + Total Long-term debt))
Return on Investment (Assets) = Total Comprehensive Income / Average Total Assets

36. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumption


The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the
disclosure of contingent liabilities.
Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the
carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
(A) Judgements
In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which
have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements.
(i) Lease commitments - the Company as lessee
The Company has entered into leases for office premises. The Company has determined, based on an evaluation of
the terms and conditions of the arrangements, such as the lease term not constituting a major part of the economic
life of the land and office premises and the fair value of the asset, that it does not retain significant risks and rewards
of ownership of the land and the office premises and accounts for the contracts as operating leases.
(B) Estimates and assumptions
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that
have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next
financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when
the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however,
may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Company. Such changes
are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
(i) Defined employee benefit plans (Gratuity)
The cost of the defined benefit gratuity plan and the present value of the gratuity obligation are determined
using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from
actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases
and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit
obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
• The parameter most subject to change is the discount rate. In determining the ppropriate discount rate for
plans operated in India, the management considers the interest rates of government bonds in currencies
consistent with the currencies of the post-employment benefit obligation.
• The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables. Future salary increases and gratuity increases
are based on expected future inflation rates. Further details about gratuity obligations are given in Note 33
37. Fair Values
The management assessed that loans, cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, borrowings, trade payables and other
current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities is included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in
a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.
38. Financial risk management objectives and policies
Financial Risk Management Framework
The Company is exposed primarily to Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk and Market risk (fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates and interest rate), which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments. The Company assesses the
unpredictability of the financial environment and seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on the financial performance of
the Company.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss.
Credit risk encompasses both, the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness as well as
concentration of risks. Credit risk is controlled by analyzing credit limits and creditworthiness of customers on a continuous
basis to whom the credit has been granted after obtaining necessary approvals for credit. Financial instruments that are

subject to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of trade receivables, investments, loans, cash and cash equivalents,
bank deposits and other financial assets. None of the financial instruments of the Company result in material concentration
of credit risk, except for trade receivables.
Exposure to credit risk:
The carrying amount of Trade receivable represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk
was `536,650 and `440,068 as of March 31, 2023 & March 31, 2022 respectively, being the total of the carrying amount of
balances with trade receivables.
Trade receivables:
Ind AS requires expected credit losses to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company assesses at each date of
statements of financial position whether a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Expected credit losses are
measured at an amount equal to the 12 month expected credit losses or at an amount equal to the life time expected credit
losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition.. The Company has used a
practical expedient by computing the expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables based on a provision matrix. The
provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.
Before accepting any new customer, the Company uses an external/internal credit scoring system to assess the potential
customer’s credit quality and defines credit limits of customer. Limits and scoring attributed to customers are reviewed at
periodic intervals. The expected credit loss allowance is based on the ageing of the days the receivables are due and the rates
as given in the provision matrix.
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
manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by continuously
monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
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. Such changes in the values of financial instruments may result from changes in the foreign currency exchange
rates, interest rates, credit, liquidity and other market changes. The Company’s exposure to market risk is primarily on account
of foreign currency exchange rate risk.
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 a change
in market interest rates.
As the Company’s debt obligation with Fixed interest rates are in Rupees which is subject to insignificant change, exposure to
the risk of changes in market interest rates are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. As the company
has no significant interest-bearing assets, the income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in
market interest rates.
Foreign Currency exchange rate risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the statement of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities
are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective entities. Considering the countries
and economic environment in which the Company operates, its operations are subject to risks arising from fluctuations in
exchange rates in those countries. The risks primarily relate to fluctuations in US Dollar, Euros, AED and GBP against the
functional currencies of the Company Foreign Currency
