CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

Dear shareholders,

It is with immense pleasure that I welcome each and every one of you to the 36[th] Annual General Meeting of our company and present the Annual Report for the Financial Year 2023, which has been a year of significant progress for us.

I am delighted to announce that our company has returned to profits, achieving Profit after Tax of Rs. 116.79 Lakhs. This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team.

Throughout the year, we witnessed remarkable growth in our company’s turnover, which increased by 40% to reach Rs. 2960 Crores, up from Rs. 2120 Crores in FY 2022-23. This can be attributed to our growth in student, personal remittances, and corporate customers segments.

From a broader market perspective, FY 23 marked the revival in the Forex Business post the challenges of the COVID pandemic. Notably, Outward Remittances under LRS experienced an impressive 38% year-on-year growth, reaching USD 27.14 Billion, compared to USD 19.61 Billion in FY 2021-22. Despite a reduction in the overall Studies Abroad flow from USD 5.16 Billion to USD 3.42 Billion, our company’s performance in the Forex business has been excellent.

To better reflect our company’s strategic focus on cross border payments and digital solutions, we have decided to change our name to WSFx Global Pay Limited . This change aligns with our vision to become a leading Payment Fintech providing international payment solutions.

Our strategic focus on key customer segments, such as Students and Corporates, along with our commitment to digitalization, has resulted in substantial growth in turnover, revenues, and a higher adoption of digital platforms by our consumers. We take pride in offering multiple digital platforms for Corporates, Agent Partners, and Retail customers. Additionally, our App-enabled Prepaid Forex Card solutions and a robust Branch Network comprising 16 branches further ensure that we cater to every customer segment efficiently.

With the recent launch of the WSFx Global Pay App - Forex and Remittance Super App for Retail customers and students, and the WSFx Global Pay Platform - Forex Platform as a Service for Agent Partners, we are optimistic that our digital solutions will drive further growth and create value for all stakeholders.

I am delighted to share that we have experienced significant customer on boarding in both the Retail & Corporate space, as well as with our Agent Partners. Through our omni-channel strategy of Branches and digital platforms, we are strategically positioned to capitalize on the abundant growth opportunities in the Forex and Cross-border space.

At WSFx, our core values of Trust, Transparency, Convenience, and Compliance are the pillars that underpin every aspect of our business. We strive to be a trusted partner, maintaining transparency in our processes and pricing, providing convenience to our customers, and ensuring compliance in all aspects of our operations. These values are embraced and embodied by every member of our team, helping us build and sustain growth.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Team WSFx, our loyal customers, dedicated partners, creditors, bankers, regulatory bodies, and, most importantly, esteemed shareholders, for their unwavering support and faith in our transformational journey. Your continued support and trust inspire us to work diligently, creating long-term value for each and every one of you.

Thank you, and let us together embrace the future with optimism and determination.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

DOMESTIC & GLOBAL ECONOMY

Financial Year 2023 was a transformational year post the prolonged impact of the COVID Pandemic. As per India Development Update, the World Bank has reported that India’s economic growth continues to be resilient, despite showing some signs of moderation. The country remains one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, with a robust overall growth rate estimated to be 6.9 percent for the full fiscal year. During the first three quarters of fiscal year 2022/23, the real GDP grew by 7.7 percent year-on-year.

The growth was supported by strong investment activity, driven by the government’s capital expenditure (capex) push and buoyant private consumption, especially among higher income earners. These factors have contributed to the positive growth momentum experienced in India. While the Indian economy shows resilience, the World Bank points out that there are still significant challenges posed by the global economic environment. Despite this, India’s growth remains robust due to the country’s strong investment and consumption dynamics.

From a Global Economy perspective the major challenges were due to prolonged impact of pandemic in certain countries causing disruptions and slowing down economic recovery, ongoing effect of Russia – Ukraine conflict causing geo-political tensions, interest rate hikes, global stagflation, and employment challenges etc impeding economic recovery.

Despite various challenges, India’s economy has performed well and has the potential to maintain its growth trajectory, but challenges in the global economy and domestic factors could impact its performance in the future. With a clear vision of being a technology driven and knowledge based economy with strong public finance and robust financial sector the country is expected to continue in its growth despite global slowdown.

FOREX INDUSTRY

In the fiscal year 2023, the global economy witnessed a significant recovery from the impacts of the pandemic, leading to a resurgence in both leisure and business travel. This revival had a positive effect on Forex and crossborder remittance requirements, resulting in healthy growth in these sectors.

With the return of consumer confidence and removal of travel restrictions, people resumed their international travel plans. As a result, there was a notable increase in foreign exchange demands as travellers sought foreign currencies & forex cards for their trips. Additionally, the resurgence of international business activities also led to a surge in cross-border remittances, facilitating global trade and investment.

In the fiscal year 2023, outward remittances under the Liberalized Remittance Scheme (LRS) witnessed an impressive 38% year-on-year growth, reaching a total of USD 27.14 Billion, surpassing the previous year’s figure of USD 19.61 Billion in FY 2021-22. However, during this period, the flow of funds for students pursuing studies abroad experienced a reduction from USD 5.16 Billion to USD 3.42 Billion. This decline can be attributed to the normalization of demand, as the pent-up demand that drove higher figures in FY 2022 has now levelled off.

The 38% year-on-year increase in outward remittances indicates a growing inclination towards international investments, overseas transactions, and cross-border financial activities. The revival of leisure and business travel, coupled with favourable economic conditions, played a significant role in driving this surge in LRS remittances. Looking ahead, the positive trend in LRS remittances suggests a promising future for cross-border transactions and holds the promise of growth in the students’ segment.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of WSFx Global Pay Limited (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited) (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance sheet as at March 31, 2023, the Statement of Profit and Loss, including the statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Therefore, due to the pervasive nature and complexity
of the IT environment, the assessment of the general
IT controls and the application controls specifc to the
accounting and preparation of the fnancial information
is considered to be a key audit matter.

In addition to the above, tested the design and
operating effectiveness of certain automated
controls that were considered as key internal
controls.

compensating controls in case defciencies were

scope of our substantive audit procedures.

Other Information

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the board report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

64

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2023 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Other Matter

The financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2022, included in these financial statements, have been audited by the predecessor auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on May 27, 2022.

ANNEXURE 2 TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT OF EVEN DATE ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF WSFx GLOBAL PAY LIMITED

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of WSFx Global Pay Limited (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited) (“the Company”) as of March 31, 2023 in conjunction with our audit of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the Company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing, as specified under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both issued by ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to these financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to these financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to these financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to these financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with Reference to these Financial Statements

A company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with Reference to Financial Statements

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud

71

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control with reference to financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2023, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has granted license to operate as an Authorised Dealer Category-II and holds a valid license till 31st December 2023.

2 Significant Accounting Policies and Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements

2.1 Basis of preparation of Financial Statements

a) Compliance with Ind AS

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS’) notified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read together with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015(as amended from time to time) and presentation requirements of Division II of Schedule III to the Companies Act, 2013, (Ind AS compliant Schedule III), as applicable to the financial statements.

b) Historical Cost Convention

These financial statements have been prepared and presented under the historical cost convention, on the accrual basis of accounting except for :

  • Certain Assets and Liabilities that are measured at fair value (refer accounting policy regarding financial instruments)

  • Defined Benefits Plans - Plan assets measured at fair value

  • Contingent consideration

In addition, the carrying values of recognised assets and liabilities designated as hedged items in fair value hedges that would otherwise be carried at amortised cost are adjusted to record changes in the fair values attributable to the risks that are being hedged in effective hedge relationships.

The company has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern.

  • 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

3.1 Current versus non-current classification

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:

  • ¾ Expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle

  • ¾ Held primarily for the purpose of trading

  • ¾ Expected to be realised within twelve months after the reporting period, or

  • ¾ 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.

78

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

A liability is current when:

  • ¾ It is expected to be settled in normal operating cycle

  • ¾ It is held primarily for the purpose of trading

  • ¾ It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or

  • ¾ There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period

The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.

The company classifies all other liabilities as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The company has identified twelve months as its operating cycle

3.2 Functional and Presentation Currency

The Financial Statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is also the Company’s functional currency. All amounts have been rounded-off to the nearest lakhs, unless otherwise indicated.

3.3 Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments

The company measures financial instruments at fair value at each balance sheet date.

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, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique.

The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • ¾ In the principal market for the asset or liability, or

  • ¾ 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, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised 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

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

This note summarises accounting policy for fair value. Other fair value related disclosures are given in the relevant notes.

  • ¾ Disclosures for valuation methods, significant estimates and assumptions

  • ¾ Contingent consideration

  • ¾ Quantitative disclosures of fair value measurement hierarchy

  • ¾ Financial instruments (including those carried at amortised cost)

3.4 Foreign Currency Translation

Initial Recognition:

On initial recognition, transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are recorded in the functional currency (i.e. Indian Rupees), by applying to the foreign currency amount, the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and foreign currency at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on foreign exchange transactions settled during the year are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Measurement of foreign currency items at reporting date:

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in OCI or profit or loss are also recognised in OCI or profit or loss, respectively).

3.5 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)

Measurement and Recognition :

PPE are initially recognised at cost. The initial cost of PPE comprises its purchase price, including nonrefundable duties and taxes net of any trade discounts and rebates. PPE are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation :

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as per the schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 .


schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 .
Type/Category of Asset Useful life
Furniture and Fixtures 10 years
Offce Equipment’s 5 years
Air Conditioners 5 years
Computers 3 years

80

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The residual values, useful life and depreciation method are reviewed at each financial year-end to ensure that the amount, method and period of depreciation are consistent with previous estimates and the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the items of property, plant and equipment.

Derecognition :

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. Fully depreciated assets still in use are retained in financial statements.

3.6 Intangible Assets & Intangible assets under development

Measurement and Recognition :

Intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost and subsequently are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.

Research and development costs

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures on an individual project are recognised as an intangible asset when the Company can demonstrate:

  • ¾ The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale

  • ¾ Its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset

  • ¾ How the asset will generate future economic benefits

  • ¾ The availability of resources to complete the asset

  • ¾ The ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development

Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation of the asset begins when development is complete, and the asset is available for use. It is amortised over the period of expected future benefit. Amortisation expense is recognised in the statement of profit and loss unless such expenditure forms part of carrying value of another asset. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.

Amortisation :

The Company amortises intangible assets with a finite useful life using the straight-line method over the following range of useful lives:


following range of useful lives:
Asset Useful life
Computer softwares 10 years
Digital Portal / Platform 7 years
The estimated useful life is reviewed annually by the management.

Derecognition :

The carrying amount of an intangible asset is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from the Derecognition of an intangible asset is measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset and is recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss when the asset is derecognized.

3.7 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.

i) Financial Assets

A) Initial Recognition and measurement

Financial assets are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Company’s business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient, the Company initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Company has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under Ind AS 115.

B) Subsequent Measurement :

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is to hold these assets 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.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows that give rise on specified dates to solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and by selling financial assets. The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity investments not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

A financial asset which is not classified in any of the above categories are measured at FVTPL.

ii) Financial liabilities

A) Initial Recognition and measurement

All financial liabilities are recognised at fair value and in case of loans net of directly attributable cost. Fees or recurring nature are directly recognised in statement of Profit & Loss.

B) Subsequent Measurement

Financial liabilities are 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 Assets

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset.

82

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

If the Company enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its balance sheet, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets, the transferred assets are not derecognised.

Financial Liabilities

The Company derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire.

The Company also derecognises a financial liability when its terms are modified and the cash flows under the modified terms are substantially different. In this case, a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognised at fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability extinguished and the new financial liability with modified terms is recognised in statement of profit and loss.

Off setting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are off set and the net amount is reported in financial statements if there is a currently enforceable legal right to off set the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Impairment

The Company recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses on:

  • financial assets measured at amortised cost; and

  • financial assets measured at FVOCI – debt investments.

  • Trade receivables and contract assets

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.

In accordance with Ind AS 109 – Financial Instruments, the Company follows ‘simplified approach’ for recognition of impairment loss allowance on trade receivables. The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime expected credit loss at each reporting date, right from its initial recognition.

The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Company determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Company’s procedures for recovery of amounts due.

3.8 Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

3.9 Inventories

Inventories comprise of foreign currencies. Inventories are valued at lower of Weighted Average Cost and Net Realisable Value as on the last day of Financial Year.

3.10 Revenue from contract with customer

“Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services.

83

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price (net of variable consideration) allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of the contract.

Revenue has been recognised as per five-step model given in Ind AS 115 as shown below:

  1. Identify the Contract with the Customer

  2. Identify the Performance Obligations

  3. Determine the Transaction Price

  4. Allocate the Transaction Price

  5. Recognize Revenue when Performance Obligations are satisfied”

  6. I. Income from money changing business is arrived at after deducting cost of sales.

  7. II. Income from money transfer services is accounted on satisfaction of a performance obligation with the end customer.

  8. III. Income from consultancy and commission is recognised on completion of relevant activity based on agreed terms of the contract.

IV. Interest Income

Interest income from financial assets is recognized when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial assets to that asset’s net carrying amount on initial recognition.

V. Dividend

Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

VI. Insurance claims

Insurance claims are accounted for on the basis of claims admitted / expected to be admitted and to the extent that there is no uncertainty in receiving the claims.

3.11 Leases

The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Company as a lessee

The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

i) Right-of-use assets

The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-ofuse assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

84

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

• Leasehold Properties 1 to 7 years

If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.

The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment. Refer to the accounting policies in section (p) Impairment of non-financial assets.

i) Lease Liabilities

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as expenses (unless they are incurred to produce inventories) in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

ii) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of machinery and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

3.12 Retirement and other employee benefits

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. If the contribution payable to the scheme for service received before the balance sheet date exceeds the contribution already paid, the deficit payable to the scheme is recognized as a liability after deducting the contribution already paid. If the contribution already paid exceeds the contribution due for services received before the balance sheet date, then excess is recognized as an asset to the extent that the pre-payment will lead to, for example, a reduction in future payment or a cash refund.

The Company 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 using the projected unit credit method.

Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised 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.

85

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

Past service costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of:

  • ¾ The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and

  • ¾ The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs

Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit and loss:

  • ¾ Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine settlements; and

  • ¾ Net interest expense or income

Accumulated leave, which is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months, is treated as short-term employee benefit. The Company measures the expected cost of such absences as the additional amount that it expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement that has accumulated at the reporting date. The Company recognizes expected cost of short-term employee benefit as an expense, when an employee renders the related service.

The Company treats accumulated leave expected to be carried forward beyond twelve months, as longterm employee benefit for measurement purposes. Such long-term compensated absences are provided for based on the actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method at the reporting date. Actuarial gains/losses are immediately taken to the statement of profit and loss and are not deferred. The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Share Based Payments

Equity-settled share based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share based payments is expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company`s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss such that the cumulative expenses reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the Share Based Payments Reserve.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

3.13 Finance cost

Borrowing costs are interest and ancillary costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings. The other borrowing costs are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss within Finance costs of the period in which they are incurred.

3.14 Segment reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Managing Director & CEO.

The Company is engaged primarily in the business of forex and there is no separate reportable segment within the criteria defined under Indian Accounting Standard 108 - Operating Segment.

3.15 Taxes

Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the year. Current and deferred taxes are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid 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 Company operates and generates taxable income.

Current income tax relating to items recognised 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 considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment. The Company shall reflect the effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment by using either most likely method or expected value method, depending on which method predicts better resolution of the treatment,

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.”

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.

3.16 Provisions and Contingencies

Provisions are recognized, when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, where it is probable that there will be outflow of resources to settle the obligation and when a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. Where the effect is material, the provision is discounted to net present value using an appropriate current market-based pre-tax discount rate and the unwinding of the discount is included in finance costs.

Contingent liabilities are recognised only when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, due to occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events, not wholly within the control of the Company, or where any present obligation cannot be measured in terms of future outflow of resources, or where a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made. Obligations are assessed on an ongoing basis and only those having a largely probable outflow of resources are provided for.

3.17 Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing the profit or loss attributable to the equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is computed by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to the ordinary equity shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary equity shares, for the effects of all dilutive potential Ordinary shares.

3.18 Cash Flow

Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non–cashnature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. The cash flows from regular revenue generating, financing and investing activities of the Company are segregated.

Note 29 Employee Benefits

As per Indian Accounting Standard 19 “Employee benefits”, the disclosures as defined are given below:

Note 29.1 Defined Plans

a) Defined Contribution Plan

Details of contribution to defined contribution plan recognized as expense during the period are as under :

(Rs. In Lakhs) (Rs. In Lakhs) (Rs. In Lakhs)
Particulars March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022
Provident Fund 50.95 41.92

b) Defined Benefit Plan

The gratuity plan is governed by the payment of Gratuity Act,1972. Under the said Gratuity Act an employee who has completed five years of services is entitled to specific benefit. The Gratuity Plan provides a lump-sum payment to vested employees at retirement, death, incapacitation or termination of employment, of an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and the tenure of employment with the Company.

Company is exposed to various risks in providing the above gratuity benefit which are as follows:

Actuarial Risk:

Salary Increase Assumption

Actual Salary increase that are higher than the assumed salary escalation, will result in increase to the Obligation at a rate that is higher than expected

Attrition/Withdrawal Assumption

If actual withdrawal rates are higher than assumed withdrawal rates, the benefits will be paid earlier than expected. Similarly if the actual withdrawal rates are lower than assumed, the benefits will be paid later than expected. The impact of this will depend on the demography of the company and the financials assumptions.

WSFx Global Pay Ltd (Formerly known as Wall Street Finance Limited)

==> picture [56 x 41] intentionally omitted <==

Notes Forming Part of Financial Statements For Year Ended March 31, 2023

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.

Market Risk:

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

Longevity Risk:

The impact of longevity risk will depend on whether the benefits are paid before retirement age or after. Typically for the benefits paid on or before the retirement age, the longevity risk is not very material.

Regulatory Risk:

Any Changes to the current Regulations by the Government, will increase (in most cases) or Decrease the obligation which is not anticapated. Sometimes, the increase is many fold which will impact the financials quite significantly.

Sensitivity analysis for each significant actuarial assumptions namely Discount rate and Salary assumptions have been shown in the table above at the end of the reporting period, showing how the defined benefit obligation would have been affected by the changes .

The Mortality and Attrition does not have a significant impact on the Liability, hence are not considered a significant actuarial assumption for the purpose of Sensitivity analysis.

The assumptions used in preparing the sensitivity analysis is Discount rate at +1% and -1% Salary assumption at +1 % and -1% .

The method used to calculate the liability in these scenarios is by keeping all the other parameters and the data same as in the base liability calculation except the parameters to be stressed.

Note 33: Financial Risk Management

The Company’s activities expose it to credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. The company has an overall Enterprise Risk Management policy, approved by Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities. The Company, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the company’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company. The audit committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and adhoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s receivables from customers and investment securities. Credit risk is managed through credit approvals, establishing credit limits and continuously monitoring the creditworthiness of customers to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business.

i) Trade Receivables

The company provide services related to foreign exchange i.e. sale of foreign currency, prepaid forex card etc. Credit limit of customers are set in the operating software on the basis of review of financials of the customers. A default occurs when in the view of management there is no significant possibility of recovery of receivables after considering all available options for recovery. An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date. The expected credit losses over lifetime of the asset are estimated by adopting the simplified approach using a provision matrix. The provision matrix takes into account historical credit loss experience and is based on the ageing of the receivable days and the rates as given in the provision matrix. The Company has not experienced any significant impairment losses in respect of trade receivables in the past years.

Substantially the same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the same type of contracts.

The ageing analysis of trade receivables (gross) has been considered from the date the invoice falls due:

iii) Other than trade financial assets reported above, the Company has no other financial assets which carries any significant credit risk.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other risks such as regulatory risk and commodity price risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, trade receivables and trade payables involving foreign currency exposure, and inventories.

The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. This is based on the financial assets and financial liabilities held at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.

Interest Rate Risk Exposure

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. The Company’s exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to fixed deposits and borrowings from financial institutions / banks.

Following table gives company’s short-term and long term loans and borrowings, including interest rate profiles:

Interest rates - decrease by100 basispoints * (7.96)
  • Holding all variables constant

Price Risk

The company’s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the company and classified in the balance sheet either as fair value through OCI or at fair value through profit or loss. Since the company does not have material equity investments, the company does not have a material price risk exposure as of reporting period

Liquidity Risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities and the availability of funding to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, Company’s treasury maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining sufficient cash and bank balances available to meet the working capital requirements. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the company’s liquidity position (comprising the unused cash and bank balances along with temporary investments in fixed deposits and/ or liquid mutual funds) on the basis of expected cash flows.

- Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company manages this foreign currency risk by entering in to cross currency swaps . When a derivative is entered in to for the purpose of being a hedge, the Company negotiates the terms of those derivatives to match with the terms of the hedged exposure. The Company’s policy is to fully hedge its foreign currency borrowings at the time of drawdown and remain so till repayment.

Maturities of Financial Liabilities

The table below analyses the Company’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities for:

  • all non derivative financial liabilities.

  • net and gross settled derivative financial instruments for which the contractual maturities are essential for the understanding of the timing of the cash flows.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant

The fair value of financial instruments as referred to in note above have been classified into three categories depending on the inputs used in the valuation technique. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (carrying amount measurements). The categories used are as follows:

Level 1 : Level 1 hierarchy includes financial instruments measured using quoted prices.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, traded bonds, over-the counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. Considering that all significant inputs required to fair value such instruments are observable, these are included in level 2.

Level 3 : Those where the inputs that are used for valuation and are significant, are derived from directly or indirectly observable market data available over the entire period of the instrument’s life. Such inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical instruments in inactive markets and observable inputs other than quoted prices such as interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads In addition, adjustments may be required for the condition or location of the asset or the extent to which it relates to items that are comparable to the valued instrument. “

Carrying Amount: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in carrying amount.

(ii) Valuation technique used to determine fair value

The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date.

For Assets and liabilities not discounted:

The carrying amounts of trade receivables, loans, cash and bank balances, trade payable and other financial liabilities are considered to be the same as their fair values, due to their short-term nature.

For financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, the carrying amounts are equal to the fair values.
