The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value,
grouped into Level 1 to Level 3, as described below.
Quoted prices in an active market (Level 1): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets that are measured by reference to quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. This category consists of quoted equity shares, quoted corporate
debt instruments and mutual fund investments.
Valuation techniques with observable inputs (Level 2): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities, measured using
inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e; as prices) or
indirectly (i.e; derived from prices). This level of hierarchy include Company’s over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts.
Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): This level of hierarchy includes financial assets and liabilities
measured using inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair values are determined in whole or in
part, using a valuation model based on assumptions that are neither supported by prices from observable current market transactions
in the same instrument nor are they based on available market data.
There has been no transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3 for the year ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
Costs of certain unquoted equity instruments has been considered as an appropriate estimate of fair value because of a wide range of
possible fair value measurements and cost represents the best estimate of fair value within that range. These investments in equity
instruments are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium or long term strategic purpose. Upon the application of Ind AS
109, the Company has chosen to designate these investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI as the directors believes this provides
a more meaningful presentation for medium or long term strategic investments, than reflecting changes in fair value immediately in
profit or loss.
Derivatives are fair valued using market observable rates and published prices together with forecast cash flow information where
applicable.

Total 5,047.12 14,812.37 - 19,859.49
The short-term financial assets and liabilities are stated at amortised cost which is approximately equal to their fair value.
The fair value of borrowings which have a quoted market price in an active market is based on its market price and for other borrowings
the fair value is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows, using a discount rate equivalent to the risk-free rate of return,
adjusted for the credit spread considered by the lenders for instruments of similar maturity.
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments. However, there are inherent limitations
in any estimation technique. Therefore, substantially for all financial instruments, the fair value estimates presented above are not
necessarily indicative of all the amounts that the Company could have realised or paid in sale transactions as of respective dates.
As such, the fair value of the financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different from the amounts
reported at each year end.

off recognised amounts and the Company intends to either settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability,
simultaneously.
Certain derivative financial assets and financial liabilities are subject to master netting arrangements, whereby in the case of
insolvency, derivative financial assets and financial liabilities will be settled on a net basis.

( c) Financial risk management
In the course of its business, the Company is exposed primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates,
equity prices, liquidity and credit risk, which may adversely impact the fair value of its financial instruments.
The Company has a risk management policy which not only covers the foreign exchange risks but also other risks associated
with the financial assets and liabilities such as interest rate risks and credit risks. The risk management policy is approved by the
board of directors. The risk management framework aims to:
• Create a stable business planning environment by reducing the impact of currency and interest rate fluctuations on the
Company’s business plan.
• Achieve greater predictability to earnings by determining the financial value of the expected earnings in advance.
(i) Market risk
Market risk is the risk of any loss in future earnings, in realizable fair values or in future cash flows that may result from a
change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the
interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, equity price fluctuations, liquidity and other market changes. Future specific
market movements cannot be normally predicted with reasonable accuracy.
(i) (a) Foreign currency exchange rate risk:
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates may have potential impact on the income statement and equity,
where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets/liabilities are denominated in a currency
other than the functional currency.
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 U.S. dollar,
Euro and Thai Baht against the respective functional currencies of the Company.
The Company, as per its risk management policy, uses foreign exchange and other derivative instruments primarily
to hedge foreign exchange and interest rate exposure. Any weakening of the functional currency may impact the
Company’s cost of exports and cost of borrowings and consequently may increase the cost of financing the Company’s
capital expenditures.
The Company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate
risks. It hedges a part of these risks by using derivative financial instruments in accordance with its risk management
policies.
The foreign exchange rate sensitivity is calculated for each currency by aggregation of the net foreign exchange rate
exposure of a currency and a simultaneous parallel foreign exchange rates shift in the foreign exchange rates of each
currency by 10%.
The exposure as indicated below is mitigated by some of the derivative contracts entered into by the Company as
disclosed in (iv) derivative financial instruments and risk management below.
The following table sets forth information relating to foreign currency exposure (other than risk arising from derivatives
disclosed at clause (iv) below) as of March 31, 2018:

10% appreciation/depreciation of the respective foreign currencies with respect to functional currency of the
Company would result in decrease/increase in the Company’s net profit/(loss) before tax by approximately ` 55.23
crores and ` 653.42 crores for financial assets and financial liabilities, respectively for the year ended March 31,
2017.
(Note: The impact is indicated on the profit/(loss) before tax basis.)
(i) (b) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is measured by using the cash flow sensitivity for changes in variable interest rates. Any movement in
the reference rates could have an impact on the Company’s cash flows as well as costs.
The Company is subject to variable interest rates on some of its interest bearing liabilities. The Company’s interest
rate exposure is mainly related to debt obligations. The Company also uses a mix of interest rate sensitive financial
instruments to manage the liquidity and fund requirements for its day to day operations like short term loans.
As at March 31, 2018 and 2017, financial liability of ` 3,239.35 crores and ` 3,418.97 crores, respectively, was subject to
variable interest rates. Increase/decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates at the balance sheet date would result in
decrease/increase in profit/(loss) before tax of ` 32.39 crores and ` 34.19 crores for the year ended March 31, 2018 and
2017, respectively.
The model assumes that interest rate changes are instantaneous parallel shifts in the yield curve. Although some assets
and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to re-pricing, these may not react correspondingly to changes in
market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on some types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate with changes in
market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets may change with a lag.
The risk estimates provided assume a parallel shift of 100 basis points interest rate across all yield curves. This
calculation also assumes that the change occurs at the balance sheet date and has been calculated based on risk
exposures outstanding as at that date. The period end balances are not necessarily representative of the average debt
outstanding during the period.
This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant.
(Note: The impact is indicated on the profit/(loss) before tax basis).
(i) ( c) Equity Price risk
Equity Price Risk is related to the change in market reference price of the investments in equity securities.
The fair value of some of the Company’s investments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
exposes the Company to equity price risks. These investments are subject to changes in the market price of securities.
The fair value of Company’s investment in quoted equity securities as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 was ` 303.84 crores
and ` 218.18 crores, respectively. A 10% change in equity price as of March 31, 2018 and 2017 would result in an impact
of ` 30.38 crores and ` 21.82 crores, respectively.
(Note: The impact is indicated on equity before consequential tax impact, if any).

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss arising from counterparty failure to repay or service debt according to the contractual
terms or obligations. Credit risk encompasses both the direct risk of default and the risk of deterioration of creditworthiness
as well as concentration risks.
Financial instruments that are subject to concentrations of credit risk, principally consist of investments classified as fair
value through profit and loss, trade receivables, loans and advances and derivative financial instruments. None of the
financial instruments of the Company result in material concentrations of credit risks.
Exposure to credit risk
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk was
` 7,819.91 crores and ` 6,069.96 crores as at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, being the total of the carrying amount
of balances with banks, short term deposits with banks, trade receivables, finance receivables, margin money and other
financial assets excluding equity investments.
Financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired
None of the Company’s cash equivalents, including time deposits with banks, are past due or impaired. Regarding trade
receivables and other receivables, and other loans or receivables that are neither impaired nor past due, there were no
indications as at March 31, 2018, that defaults in payment obligations will occur.
