Dear Shareholders,

Good Morning,

With your permission, I take them as read.

The Company is not carrying business activities as directed. In the year 2023-24, your Company had a turnover of Rs. 5.13 crore which is mainly from the power sold from the Wind Mill operating in Karnataka State. During 2023-24, the Company earned a net profit of Rs. 68.21 crore. This profit is attributed to the interest earned on inflow from the sale of MMTC's stake in NINL in the previous year.

I would like to express sincere thanks and gratitude to our valued members of the Board for their guidance, our esteemed shareholders for their continued support and trust in the company, various Ministries of Government of India, particularly the Department of Commerce, Ministry of Commerce & Industry for their valuable guidance and support in all our endeavors and our employees for their engagement and perseverance.

CIR/CDMRD/DEA/03/2015 dated 26 November 2015 holding has to be reduced to 5% or less. MMTC in 2018 and 2019 appointed consultants for valuation and disinvestment of equity in ICEX. However, MMTC did not receive any bids against the RFPs for sale of stake in ICEX. As of March 31, 2024, the shares of ICEX are not available for purchase on any stock exchange. MMTC tried to sell its equity in ICEX in FY 2017-18 and again from FY 2019-20 to 2021-22, but MMTC was unable to find any buyers. SEBI passed order dated 10.05.2022 for withdrawal of recognition to ICEX vide official gazette of India on 18.05.2022.

  • (iv) The JV company SICAL Logistics Limited (SLL), MMTC Ltd and L&T Infrastructure Development Projects Limited (L&T IDPL) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement on 25.02.2009 and held 63%, 26% and 11% equity respectively to form a Special Purpose Vehicle Company i.e. SICAL Iron Ore Terminal Limited (SIOTL),

for development of an Iron Ore berth at Kamarajar Port (earlier known as Ennore Port) near Chennai to handle Iron Ore capacity of 12 MMTPA. M/s SIOTL could not commence commercial operations due to non availability of iron ore from Bellary-Hospet Sector in Karnataka State and banning of mining / movement of iron ore for exports by state govt. In view of uncertain future of iron ore exports and to utilize the infrastructure created, Kamarajar Port Limited (KPL) decided to award the facility for modification of the facility to handle common user coal. As coal does not have synergy with MMTC's existing line of business, In Sept'2016, MMTC Board decided to exit from the JV.

Annual Report 2023-24

MMTC invited bids through online tender for sale of its entire 26% equity in the SIOTL, however no response was received. As per "Right of First Refusal" in Shareholders Agreement of SIOTL, SICAL Logistics Ltd; (SLL) (lead promoter of SIOTL) offered to purchase MMTC's equity at reserve price fixed by MMTC which MMTC Board decided to accept. Share Purchase Agreement was signed with Sical Logistics Ltd on 31.05.2018 for sale of MMTC's equity in SIOTL and in terms of the agreement M/s SLL had deposited Rs.0.50 Cr (PY Rs.0.50 Cr) with MMTC towards performance of agreement. Time to time, the validity of the SPA was extended. Last extension was valid till 31.03.2020. On account of financial crisis, M/s Sical Logistics could not pay the sale value against SPA and therefore provision for Rs.33.80 crore was created by MMTC on 31.03.2020 towards diminution in value of investment.

In the March 2021and in March 2022, corporate insolvency proceedings were initiated by NCLT against M/s SLL and the JV Company M/s SIOTL respectively.

MMTC lodged its claim for Rs.34.26 crores with Corporate Insolvency Resolution Professional (CIRP ) of SLL towards unpaid share sale consideration based on the SPA and also with CIRP of SIOTL. MMTC had also taken legal opinion of ASG in respect of the options available to recover its investment who opined that MMTC being a shareholder, there are very little avenues of recovery available to MMTC at this stage considering both SLL and SIOTL are under insolvency proceedings.

NCLT vide it order dated 08.12.2022 has approved the resolution plan of SLL and the successful resolution applicant has been appointed. Further NCLT vide its Order dated 23rd June'23 has decided to initiate the liquidation process in respect of Sical Iron Ore Terminal Limited (SIOTL) and has accordingly appointed the Liquidator for the same. However MMTC is pursuing with concerned authorities to recover its investment.

(v) To promote the concept of Free Trade Warehousing Zones in India as declared in the EXIM Policy, MMTC and IL&FS established SPV in 2004-05 in the name of Free Trade Warehousing Pvt Ltd. The equity is held on 50:50 basis between MMTC and IL&FS.

In view of the financial situation of the promoters and the need for infusion of substantial funds for development of the Project, it was decided by the promoters to exit from the project. Accordingly the land at Kandla has been surrendered to the Project Development Authority in 2020.

In regard to Haldia land, local farmers had filed petition against Haldia Development Authority (HAD) challenging the land acquisition in 2015 and stay was granted by Hon'ble High Court of Calcutta. Due to prolonged litigation and stay not being lifted, promoters decided to surrender the land to Haldia Development Authority (HDA). Accordingly in March 2020, letter regarding surrendering of land was written to HDA and HFTWPL is following up with HDA for refund of amount i.e Rs 32 crores approx.(net of utilized premium), but till date no action has been taken by the HDA.

(vi) A 15 MW capacity Wind Mill project with 25 Wind Energy Generators was set up by MMTC in March, 2007 at Gajendragad in Karnataka at a total cost of approx. Rs. 68.5 crores. The project is spread over an area of 31 acres of land leased from Karnataka State Govt. in 2007 for a period of 30 years.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT 2023-24

Overview of Global Trade & Developments

Global trade in 2023-2024 continues to navigate through a complex landscape shaped by various factors and developments. The year 2023 witnessed ongoing trade tensions and geopolitical uncertainties, influencing trade policies and economic strategies globally. Regional trade agreements gained prominence, reflecting efforts to strengthen economic integration amidst shifting geopolitical dynamics. Digital trade and e-commerce saw significant growth, prompting discussions on regulatory frameworks and cyber security. The COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact global supply chains, prompting reassessments of resilience and diversification strategies. Sustainability remained a key focus, with increased attention on environmental impact and corporate responsibility in global trade practices. Looking ahead, technological advancements, geopolitical realignments, and efforts towards sustainable development are expected to shape the future of global trade, influencing economic growth and international relations. Understanding these trends is essential for stakeholders navigating the evolving challenges and opportunities in the global trade landscape.

Overview of Economic Developments in India during 2023-24

During 2023-24, India's economy exhibited a trajectory of recovery and reform amidst various challenges and opportunities. GDP growth stabilized, supported by resurgence in consumption and investment, although it faced headwinds from inflationary pressures and global economic uncertainties. The government pursued fiscal consolidation measures while continuing to invest in infrastructure through initiatives like the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP), aimed at boosting long-term growth prospects. Monetary policy remained accommodative, with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) balancing growth support with inflation management through strategic adjustments in interest rates. Sectorally, while manufacturing showed resilience in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and electronics, it encountered supply chain disruptions and raw material shortages. The services sector, particularly IT and BPO, continued to thrive, benefiting from global demand for digital services and remote work trends. Agriculture remained robust despite challenges from weather variability, supported by government schemes like PM-KISAN and reforms in agricultural markets. India also attracted significant foreign direct investment (FDI) across various sectors, aided by reforms to ease business regulations and improve the investment climate. Challenges persisted, including unemployment concerns and socio-economic disparities, underscoring the need for targeted policy interventions. Looking ahead, India aims to sustain economic momentum through continued reforms, infrastructure development, and fostering a conducive environment for innovation and sustainable growth.

Outlook for 2024-25

The outlook for economic growth in India for 2024-25 appears cautiously optimistic, underpinned by ongoing reforms, infrastructure investments, and recovery measures. The government's focus on the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) is set to bolster growth across sectors such as transportation, energy, and digital infrastructure, enhancing productivity and competitiveness. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is likely to maintain accommodative monetary policies to support economic expansion while managing inflationary pressures. The services sector, particularly IT and BPO, is expected to sustain its robust performance, driven by global demand for digital services and the continuation of remote work trends. Manufacturing, although facing challenges like supply chain disruptions, is anticipated to recover further, especially in pharmaceuticals, electronics, and automotive industries. Agriculture, supported by government initiatives and reforms, is poised to contribute positively to growth. The global economic environment, including trends in commodity prices and trade dynamics, will also influence India's growth trajectory. Overall, while challenges such as unemployment and socio-economic disparities persist, India's strategic reforms and sectoral resilience position it for moderate yet steady economic growth in the upcoming fiscal year.

Annexure-B to Corporate Governance Report Dividend Distribution Policy of MMTC Limited

I Background

Pursuant to Regulation 43A of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, which requires top five hundred listed entities based on market capitalization (calculated as on 31st March of every financial year) to formulate a dividend distribution policy which shall be disclosed in their annual reports and on their websites.

Since MMTC is amongst the top 500 listed entities as per the criteria as at March 31, 2024, the dividend distribution policy has been formulated.

II Policy Framework

The policy has been framed broadly in line with the provisions of the Companies Act and also taking into consideration, guidelines on "Capital Restructuring of Central Public Sector Enterprises" issued by Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM), Ministry of Finance, Department of Public Enterprises, SEBI and other guidelines, to the extent applicable.

III Factors in consideration

MMTC has been consistently paying dividends and is committed to deliver sustainable value to all stakeholders. Dividend is declared at the Annual General Meeting of the shareholders of the Company, based on the recommendations of the Board of Directors. It is at the discretion of the Board to recommend dividend. The Board may also declare interim dividend.

The decision regarding dividend pay-out is a crucial decision as it balances the amount of profit to be distributed among shareholders of the company with the requirement of deployment of internal accruals for its sustenance and growth plans. The factors generally considered before recommending/declaring dividend are as follows:

A. Circumstances under which the shareholders of the Company may or may not expect dividend

The factors that may generally be considered by the Board before making any recommendations for the dividend include, but are not limited to, future capital expenditure plans, profits earned during the financial year, cost of raising funds from alternate sources, cash flow position and applicable taxes including tax on dividend, subject to the guidelines as applicable from time to time.

B. Financial Parameters that shall be considered while declaring dividend

Being a Central Public Sector Enterprise, the Company endeavors to declare the dividend as per the guidelines on "Capital Restructuring of Central Public Sector Enterprises" issued by DIPAM, Govt. of India on 27.05.2016, mandating every CPSE to pay a minimum annual dividend of 30% of PAT or 5% of the networth, whichever is higher subject to the maximum dividend permissible under the extant legal provisions.

Nonetheless, Company is expected to pay the maximum dividend permissible under the Act under which it has been set up, unless lower dividend proposed to be paid is justified on a case to case basis at the level of Ministry of Commerce & Industry after considering the following financial parameters:

  • (i) Net-worth and Capacity to borrow;
  • (ii) Long-term borrowings;
  • (iii) CAPEX/Business Expansion needs;
  • (iv) Retention of profit for further leveraging in line with the CAPEX needs; and
  • (v) Cash and bank balance.

C. Internal and External factors that shall be considered for declaration of dividend

C.1 Internal Factors

Net Worth of the Company

As per the extant guidelines issued by DIPAM, Govt. of India, every CPSE would pay a minimum annual dividend of 30% of PAT or 5% of the net-worth, whichever is higher subject to the maximum dividend permissible under the extant legal provisions. Being a Government Company, MMTC is required to comply with these guidelines.

Apart from the above parameters, the Company may also consider various other internal factors, which inter alia include:

  • Present & future capital requirements of the existing businesses;
  • Additional investments in subsidiaries/associates of the Company;
  • Any other factor as deemed fit by the Board.

C.2 External Factors

C.2.1 Economic Environment

In case of uncertain or recessionary economic and business conditions, the Company will endeavor to retain larger part of profits to build up reserves to sustain future updowns.

C.2.3 Statutory Provisions and Guidelines

The Company will adhere to the restraints imposed by Companies Act with regard to declaration of dividend. Further, being a Government Company, the Company shall also consider the guidelines in force in respect of dividend declaration as issued from time to time by the Govt. of India or by any other statutory bodies.

D. Utilization of Retained Earnings

The Company is engaged into trading of various commodities and part of its diversification measures, may form Joint Ventures in the line of business being carried out by the Company. The retained earnings will be deployed in line with the objects of the company as detailed in the Memorandum of Association of the company, thus contributing to the growth of the business and operations of the Company.

E. Parameters to be adopted with regard to various classes of shares

The holders of the equity shares of the Company, as on the record date, are entitled to receive dividends. Since the Company has issued only one class of equity shares with equal voting rights, all the members of the Company are entitled to receive the same amount of dividend per share. The policy shall be suitably revisited at the time of issue of any new class of shares depending upon the nature and guidelines thereof.

Other provisions

In case of any subsequent changes in any Statutory Act, Rules, Regulations etc. which makes any of the provisions in this policy inconsistent with them, then the provisions of the Statutory Act, Rules, Regulations etc. would prevail over the policy.

CMD is authorized to approve any minor modifications/ deviations to the policy and will be the competent authority for any interpretation with regard to this Policy.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Members of MMTC Limited Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Qualified Opinion

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of MMTC Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that date, and notes to the financial statements including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "standalone financial statements"), in which are incorporated the financial statements for the year ended on that date audited by the Branch Auditors of the Company's Regional Offices (Camp Offices) at Mumbai, Vizag, Chennai and Hyderabad.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion Section of our Report, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, its Profit and total comprehensive income (Comprising of net profit and other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

  1. We draw attention to Note no. 40(f)(a) to the accompanying financial statements, which states that the liability @1.5% of profit before tax ("PBT") for the year in respect of scheme for retirees prior to 01.01.2007 (closed group) has not been recognized even though Company has reported PBT of Rs.76.03 crores (P.Y. Rs. 1279.16 crores), on the basis of affordability. Also, the Company has not provided for PRMBS for open group @ 4.5% of Basic and DA for serving employees. During the previous year 2021-22, provision in respect of retirees after 01.01.2007 pertaining to FY 2019-20 and 2020-21 had been withdrawn due to loss during these previous years. The non-recognition of provision according to the schemes above constitutes a departure from the accounting standards as prescribed under section 133 of the Act. An amount of Rs.1.14 crore (P.Y. Rs. 19.19 crore) (1.5% of PBT) and Rs. 2.33 crore (P.Y. Rs. 2.91 crore) (4.5% of Basic and DA) estimated by the management, should have been provided as per the accounting standards. Accordingly, the provision for PRMBS would have been increased by Rs.3.47 crore (P.Y. Rs. 22.10 crore) and net income and shareholder's fund would have been reduced by the said amount.

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("ICAI") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone 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 obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Sl. No Key Audit Matter Auditor's Response
1. Contingent Liabilities
There are a number of litigations pending before
various forums against the Company and the
management's judgement is required for
estimating the amount to be disclosed as
contingent liability.
We identified this as a key audit matter because
the estimates on which these amounts are based
involve a significant degree of management
judgement in interpreting the cases and to
determine the possible outcome of those
disputes and independent legal assessment to
pursue the cases and it may be subject to
management bias.
(Refer Note No. 34 to the standalone financial
statements read with Accounting Policy No. 2.14)
We have obtained an understanding of the Company's internal
instructions and procedures in respect of estimation and
disclosure of contingent liabilities and adopted the following
audit procedures:
• We obtained list of all the pending legal cases handled at
Corporate Office legal division as on 31st March 2024 with a
note from management on the changes in the status of the
cases from that of last year.
• understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness
of controls as established by the management for obtaining
all relevant information for pending litigation cases;
• discussed with the management regarding any material
developments thereto and latest status of legal matters;
• read various correspondences and related documents
pertaining to litigation cases and relevant external legal
opinions obtained by the management and performed
substantive procedures on calculations supporting the
disclosure of contingent liabilities;
• examined management's judgements and assessments in
respect of whether provisions are required;
• considered the management assessments of those matters
that are not disclosed as contingent liability since the
probability of material outflow is considered to be remote;
• reviewed the adequacy and completeness of disclosures;
Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and
disclosures of contingent liabilities are considered to be
adequate and reasonable.

Emphasis of Matter

    1. We draw attention to Note No.11(i) to the accompanying financial statements, which states that, in terms of the court order dated 06.05.2022 & 07.07.2022 passed by the Hon'ble Delhi High Court in the matter of Anglo Coal case, an amount of Rs. 1088.62 crore has been deposited with Delhi HC and the final amount is subject to judgement/clarification of Hon'ble Court.

M/s AIPL have also filed a suit against Government Mint/MMTC for damages of Rs. 167.20 crore (P.Y. Rs. 167.20 crore) which is not tenable as per legal opinion and is being contested. Besides this the same has not been considered as a contingent liability because the management is of the view that there is no present or possible liability on the company in this case.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of above matters.

Other Matter

  • 1) The financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2023, were audited by the predecessor auditor who expressed a modified opinion on those statements on 30th May 2023, due to non-recognition of provision towards PRMBS for an amount of Rs.20.81 crores.
  • 2) We did not audit the financial statements/ financial information of 4 Regional Offices (Camp Offices) included in the standalone financial statements of the Company whose financial statements/financial information reflect total assets of Rs. 361.43 crores as at March 31, 2024 and total revenues of Rs. 10.94 crores for the year ended on that date, as considered in the standalone financial statements. The financial statements/financial information of these branches have been audited by the branch auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these branches, is based solely on the report of such branch auditors.
  • 3) Claims against the company not acknowledged as debts includes an amount of Rs.91.05 crores towards claims made by Food Corporation of India (net of provision made by the company of Rs.1.13 crores). Dispute was admitted in AMRCD committee which in its meeting held on 22 May 2020 directed both MMTC and FCI to reconcile the accounts. Such reconciliation is still pending till date and financial impact of the same, if any, cannot be ascertained.
  • 4) Company is generally not following the practice of obtaining periodic balance confirmations from the parties. Hence all the balances of trade receivables, trade payables, short and long term loans and advances, other noncurrent and current assets are unconfirmed as on 31.03.2024 and financial impact of the same, if any, cannot be ascertained (Refer note no. 50).
  • 5) Old outstanding balances are not meticulously reviewed by the company in order to timely settle the accounts and the old balances are getting carried forward as it is year after year.

6) In case of Regional Office Mumbai:

  • (i) There is a dispute pertaining to Sada Lease Land. The lease rentals for the block of 2021-25 has not been revised. Last revision was made in the block of 2015-20. Subsequent to this period, revision has been pending as on date and the RO has recognized expenses based on the 2015-20 revision.
  • (ii) There is no progress in the reconciliation of accounts between the NAFED and the company as on 31st March 2024; Rs. 92.99 Crores is receivable from NAFED and against this amount grant is received from Government of India which is disclosed as Current Liabilities.

7) In case of Regional Office of Vishakhapatnam:

  • (i) Trade Receivables Rs. 4.02 crore is classified as "Considered Good-Secured", however the same is not backed up by any security and hence cannot be considered as "Considered Good-Secured". As per the management these transactions have arisen out of back-to-back contracts wherein the payment is done to the supplier after receipt of amount from the buyer.
  • (ii) In respect of Recovery of old advance with Paradeep Port Trust of Rs. 1.17 crore, No provision in the books of accounts has been made and there is no confirmation of the said balance from the Paradeep Port Trust. As per the management, efforts are being made to recover the amount. As per the policy of the Company recoveries from Govt. and PSU's are considered 'Good and Recoverable' and hence no provision has been made.

8) Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

MMTC has been directed by administrative ministry to prepare a road map for scaling down of manpower including exit from various JVs. Also direction has been given for exit from business operation. However wind mill business is still in operation. Government is yet to decide the exit route for MMTC. As there is no communication from Ministry for closure etc., status quo of going concern is being maintained and the accounts have been prepared on going concern basis.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The Other information comprises the information included in the Board's Report, Chairman's statement, Management discussion and analysis and other company related information (hereinafter referred to as 'other reports'), but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

The Other reports are expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

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

In connection with our audit of the Standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the 'Other reports', if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. 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 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 Standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the Standalone 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.

The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone 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 Standalone financial statements.

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

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone 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 financial 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 system 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 the 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 Standalone 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 Standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Annual Report 2023-24

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone financial statements.

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.

Annexure B To the Independent Auditor's Report of even date on the Standalone Financial Statements MMTC Limited

Report on the Internal financial Controls under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act,2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of MMTC Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Board of Directors of the Company 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". 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 Act.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial of the company reporting 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 applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. 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 over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness.

Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, 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 Standalone 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 system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A Company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Standalone financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company's internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

  • a) Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
  • b) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of Standalone financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
  • c) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the Standalone financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting 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, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2024, 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"

MANAGEMENT'S REPLY TO AUDITOR'S OBSERVATIONS IN THE AUDIT REPORT ON STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR 2023-24

Qualified Opinion
1.
We draw attention to Note no. 40(f)(a) to the
accompanying financial statements, which states
that the liability @1.5% of profit before tax ("PBT") for
the year in respect of scheme for retirees prior to
01.01.2007 (closed group) has not been recognized
even though Company has reported PBT of
Rs.76.03 crores (P.Y. Rs. 1279.16 crores), on the
basis of affordability. Also, the Company has not
provided for PRMBS for open group @ 4.5% of Basic
accounts.Net payable amount is Rs 5.77 crore.
and DA for serving employees. During the previous
year 2021-22, provision in respect of retirees after
01.01.2007 pertaining to FY 2019-20 and 2020-21
had been withdrawn due to loss during these
previous years. The non-recognition of provision
according to the schemes above constitutes a
departure from the accounting standards as
prescribed under section 133 of the Act. An amount
2024-25 after due approval of competent authority.
of Rs.1.14 crore (P.Y. Rs. 19.19 crore) (1.5% of PBT)
and Rs. 2.33 crore (P.Y. Rs. 2.91 crore) (4.5% of
Basic and DA) estimated by the management,
should have been provided as per the accounting
standards. Accordingly, the provision for PRMBS
would have been increased by Rs.3.47 crore (P.Y.
Rs. 22.10 crore) and net income and shareholder's
fund would have been reduced by the said amount.

The preparation of financial statements requires judgements, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the results are known/materialised

2.4 Revenue Recognition

i) Trading Income

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.

Purchases and Sales

  • a. In case of certain commodities import of which is canalized through the company, imported on 'Government Account' against authorization letter issued by the Government of India, Purchase/ Sale is booked in the name of the Company
  • b. Products are also traded through the commodity exchanges. Purchase/ Sale is booked in respect of trade done through different commodity exchanges and is backed by physical delivery of goods.
  • c. Gold/Silver kept under deposit: As per the arrangements with the Suppliers of Gold/Silver, the metal is kept by the supplier with the company on unfixed price basis for subsequent withdrawal on loan or outright purchase basis.
  • (i) Purchases include gold/silver withdrawn from consignment deposit of the supplier on outright purchase basis for sale to exporters, as per the scheme of Foreign Trade Policy being operated by the Company as a nominated agency.
  • (ii) Purchase of Gold/Silver during the year for domestic sale is accounted for on withdrawal from the Gold/Silver consignment deposit of the supplier and fixation of price with the suppliers. The stock held by the company at year end as Gold/ Silver under Deposit is accounted for under current assets as 'stock towards unbilled purchases' and under current liability as 'amount payable towards unbilled purchases' at the bullion price prevailing as at the close of the year. However, customs duty paid in respect of balance in deposits is accounted for as prepaid expenses.
  • (iii) Gold/silver withdrawn on loan basis from the Gold/Silver under deposit, are booked as loan given to customers and grouped under financial assets. The corresponding liability towards the stocks received from foreign suppliers is grouped under Trade Payable. Loan/Trade Payable are adjusted when purchases and sales are booked.

d. In respect of Gold/Silver sourced domestically where price fixation is deferred, purchase is initially accounted for on the basis of invoice received from the supplier. The difference, if any, arising on price fixation is accounted for through debit / credit note.

Annual Report 2023-24

e. In the case of gold/ silver supplied to exporters on replenishment basis, the purchase in respect of gold/silver booked by exporter by paying margin money, is booked after "fixing" the price with the foreign suppliers. However, sale is booked when quantity is actually delivered to exporters after completion of export.

f. High Sea Sales

Sale during the course of import by transfer of documents of title i.e. high seas sale is booked upon transfer of documents of title to the goods, upon which buyer obtains control over the goods and the company becomes entitle to receive sales consideration, in favour of buyer before the goods cross the custom frontiers of India.

ii) Other Operating Revenue

The income relating to the core activities of the company which are not included in revenue from sales / services for e.g. dispatch earned, subsidy, claims against losses on trade transactions, interest on credit sales and trade related advances (other than on overdue) etc., which are derived based on the terms of related trade agreements with business associates or schemes on related trade, are accounted for under 'Other Operating Revenue'.

iii) Claims

Claims are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss (Net of any payable) on accrual basis including receivables from Govt. towards subsidy, cash incentives, reimbursement of losses etc, when its ultimate realisation is probable. Claims recognized but subsequently becoming doubtful are provided for through Statement of Profit and Loss. Insurance claims are accounted upon being accepted by the insurance company. Claims towards shortages/ damages including liquidated damages/ deficiencies in quality/quantity etc are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of relevant contracts. In case there is no such provisions in the existing contract, the claim is accounted for on receipt of acceptance by the party besides collectability of the claim amount being probable. On recognition of such claims the same will be realised/set off against advance received/claims payable etc. to the same party.

iv) Service Income

Revenue from services is booked, when performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised services to the customers, for the consideration to which the company is entitled.

v) Dividend and interest income

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the Company's right to receive payment is established and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transactions will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

vi) Revenue Recognition on Actual Realization

Revenue is recognized on accrual basis except in the following items which are accounted for on actual realization since realisability of such items is uncertain, in accordance with the provisions of Ind AS- 115:-

  • a) Duty credit / exemption under various promotional schemes of Foreign Trade Policy in force, Tax credit, refund of custom duty on account of survey shortage, and refund of income-tax/service tax / sales-tax /VAT/GST and interest thereon etc.
  • b) Decrees pending for execution/contested dues and interest thereon, if any:
  • c) Interest on overdue recoverable where realisability is uncertain.
  • d) Liquidated damages on suppliers/underwriters.

2.5 Property, Plant and Equipments

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized as an asset if, and only if 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 cost of an item of PPE is the cash price equivalent at the recognition date. The cost of an item of PPE comprises:

  • i) Purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates.
  • ii) Costs directly attributable to bringing the PPE to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

iii) The initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which the company incurs either when the PPE is acquired or as a consequence of having used the PPE during a particular period for purposes other than to produce inventories during that period.

Annual Report 2023-24

The company has chosen the cost model of recognition and this model is applied to an entire class of PPE. After recognition as an asset, an item of PPE is carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Certain items of small value like calculators, wall clock, kitchen utensils etc. whose useful life is very limited and the cost of such item is upto Rs.2000/- in each case, are directly charged to revenue in the year of purchase. Cost of mobile handsets is also charged to revenue irrespective of cost.

2.6 Intangible Assets

Identifiable intangible assets are recognized when the company controls the asset; it is probable that future economic benefits expected with the respective assets will flow to the company for more than one economic period; and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. At initial recognition, intangible assets are recognized at cost. Intangible assets are amortized on straight line basis over estimated useful lives from the date on which they are available for use. Softwares are amortized over its useful life subject to a maximum period of 5 years or over the license period as applicable. Intangible assets upto Rs.2,000/- in each case are directly charged to revenue.

No intangible assets arising from research is recognised and expense on research directly charged to profit and loss account when it is incurred. An intangible assets arising from development is recognised, if the asset fulfils the criteria for recognition as per Ind AS. Expenditure on an intangible item that was initially recognised as an expense is not recognised as part of the cost of an intangible asset at a later date.

2.7 Non-Current Assets Held for Sale

The company classifies a non-current asset (or disposal group of assets) as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The non-current asset (or disposal group) classified as held for sale is measured at the lower of its carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

2.8 Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on straight line method as per the useful lives approved by the Board of Directors, which are equal to those provided under schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The useful life of an asset is reviewed at each financial year-end. Each part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and if the useful life of that part is different from remaining part of the asset; such significant part is depreciated separately. Depreciation on all such items have been provided from the date they are 'Available for Use' till the date of sale / disposal and includes amortization of intangible assets and lease hold assets. Freehold land is not depreciated. An item of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.

The residual value of all the assets is taken as Re 1/-. The useful lives of the assets are taken as under:-

D. Amortization of Intangible Assets

2.9 Impairment

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalue amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible, intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at Fair Value through Profit and Loss (FVTPL), are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. For Available for Sale (AFS) equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.

122

For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty;
  • Breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

• It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

Annual Report 2023-24

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets are assessed for impairment on individual basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include company's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of zero days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets that are carried at cost, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables; such impairment loss is reduced through the use of an allowance account for respective financial asset. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

De-recognition of financial assets

The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, The Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

2.10 Borrowing Costs

The Company capitalises borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset as a part of the cost of the asset.

The Company recognises other borrowing costs as an expense in the period in which it incurs them.

A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

2.11 Foreign currency translation

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.

At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are re-translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Foreign currency monetary items (except overdue recoverable where realisability is uncertain) are converted using the closing rate as defined in the Ind AS-21. Non-monetary items are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. The exchange difference gain/loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Liability in foreign currency relating to acquisition of fixed assets is converted using the closing rate. The difference in exchange is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.12 Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The method of determination of cost and valuation is as under:

a) Exports:

  • (i) Cost of export stocks is arrived at after including direct expenses incurred up to the point at which the stocks are lying. Similarly the realisable value is derived by deducting from the market price the expenses to be incurred from that point to the stage where they are sold.
  • (ii) In respect of mineral ores the realisable value of ores is worked out at the minimum of the Fe/Mn contents of the grade of the ore as per export contract and is compared with the weighted average cost at weighted average Fe/Mn contents/weighted average moisture contents of the ore. The embedded stocks of Iron ore are excluded from inventory and hence not valued.

b) Imports:

  • (i) The cost of imported stocks is arrived at by working out the yearly regional weighted average cost except for Non-ferrous Metals where weighted average cost of remaining stock after including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered. However, where stocks are specifically identifiable, actual cost of the material including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered.
  • (ii) Gold/Silver purchased from foreign suppliers against booking by exporters under replenishment option and not delivered at the year-end are shown as stocks of company and valued at cost.

c) Domestic:

  • (i) The cost of gold/silver medallions and silver articles is arrived at by working out the yearly locationwise weighted average cost of material and cost of opening stock. Costs include manufacturing/fabrication charges, wastages and other direct cost.
  • (ii) In case of cut & polished stones and jewellery (finished/semi-finished) where stocks are specifically identifiable, actual cost of the material including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered. Costs include wastage and other direct manufacturing costs.

d) Packing material

Packing material is valued at lower of the cost or net realisable value.

e) Stocks with fabricators

Stocks with fabricators are taken as the stocks of the company, till adjustments.

2.13 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

2.14 Contingent Liabilities / Assets

Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but disclosed in Notes to the Accounts when the company has possible obligation due to past events and existence of the obligation depends upon occurrence or non-occurrence of future events not wholly within the control of the company.

Contingent liabilities are assessed continuously to determine whether outflow of economic resources have become probable. If the outflow becomes probable then relative provision is recognized in the financial statements.

Where an entity is jointly and severally liable for an obligation, the part of the obligation that is expected to be met by other parties is treated as a contingent liability. The entity recognises a provision for the part of the obligation for which an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is probable, except in the extremely rare circumstances where no reliable estimate can be made Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in the General Notes forming part of the accounts

Contingent Assets

Contingent Assets are not recognised in the financial statements. Such contingent assets are assessed continuously and are disclosed in Notes when the inflow of economic benefits becomes probable. If it's virtually certain that inflow of economic benefits will arise then such assets and the relative income will be recognised in the financial statements.

2.15 Leases

An asset held under lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.

An asset held under lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.

The company normally enters into operating leases which are accounted for as under:-

  • (i) Rental income from operating leases is recognized either on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis over the term of the relevant lease.
  • (ii) Where the company is lessee, at commencement date right to use of assets are recognized at cost and the present value of lease payments that are not paid recognized as lease liability. Subsequently, right of use assets measured by using cost model with any adjustment required for re-measurement of lease liability and lease liability is measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect the interest on lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any re-assessment or lease modifications.
  • (iii) As a practical expedient , short term leases and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value upto Rs.1,00,000/- per month or Rs.12,00,000/-per year are not recognized as per the provisions given under Ind AS-116 (Leases) and are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.

2.16 Employee benefits

  • i. Provision for gratuity, leave compensation and long service benefits i.e. service award, compassionate gratuity, employees' family benefit scheme and special benefit to MICA division employees is made on the basis of actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit or Loss and any change due to plan amendment, curtailment and settlement is considered for determining the current service cost, net interest, past service cost or gain/loss for settlement etc.
  • ii. Provision for post-retirement medical benefit is made on defined contribution basis.
  • iii. Provident fund contribution is made to Provident Fund Trust on accrual basis.
  • iv. Payment of Ex-gratia and Notice pay on Voluntary Retirement are charged to revenue in the year incurred.
  • v. Superannuation Pension Benefit, a defined contribution scheme is administered by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The Company makes contributions based on a specified percentage of each eligible employee's salary.

Short-term employee benefit obligations

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recorded as expense as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under PRP Scheme, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

2.17 Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income/statement of profit or loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such

investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Annual Report 2023-24

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

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

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Dividend Distribution Tax

Company is recognising the dividend distribution tax payable on payment of dividend under other equity since the dividend payable consequent upon approval of shareholders in Annual General Meeting is also presented under other equity.

Uncertainty over income tax treatments

Company while determining taxable profit (or loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under Ind AS 12 company is considering the probability of accepting the same treatment by income tax authorities and any change due to this adjusted retrospectively with cumulative effect by adjusting equity on initial application without adjusting comparatives.

2.18 Investment Property

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. All of the Company's property interests held under operating leases to earn rentals or for capital appreciation purposes are accounted for as investment properties. After initial recognition, the company measures investment property at cost.

An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognized.

Investment properties are depreciated in accordance to the class of asset that it belongs and the life of the asset is as conceived for the same class of asset at the Company.

2.19 Earnings per share

A basic earnings per equity is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any shares splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.

2.20 Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company's business that represents a separate line of business that has been disposed off or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale.

2.21 Financial instruments

i) Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments consist of:

  • financial assets, which include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, finance lease receivables, employee and other advances, investments in equity and debt securities and eligible current and non-current assets;
  • Financial liabilities, which include long and short-term loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables, eligible current and non-current liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offsetted and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Non derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus in case of financial assets not recorded at FVTPL, transaction cost attributable to the acquisition of financial asset. Financial assets are derecognized when substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred. In cases where substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets are derecognized only when the Company has not retained control over the financial asset.

Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:

a) Cash and cash equivalents

Annual Report 2023-24

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, at banks and demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Company's cash management system. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings within current liabilities.

  • b) Investments in liquid mutual funds, equity securities (other than Subsidiaries, Joint Venture and Associates) are valued at their fair value. These investments are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity, net of taxes. The impairment losses, if any, are reclassified from equity into statement of income. When an available for sale financial asset is derecognized, the related cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is transferred to the statement of income.
  • c) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus in case of financial assets not recorded at FVTPL, transaction cost attributable to the acquisition of financial asset, however trade receivable that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprise trade receivables, unbilled revenues and other assets.

The company estimates the un-collectability of accounts receivable by analysing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.

d) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short term maturity of these instruments.

e) Investments in Subsidiary, Associates and Joint Venture

The company accounts investment in subsidiary, joint ventures and associates at cost

An entity controlled by the company is considered as a subsidiary of the company.

Investments in subsidiary company outside India are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of acquisition.

Investments where the company has significant influence are classified as associates. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

A joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement is classified as a joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

ii) Derivative financial instruments

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets, liabilities, net investment in foreign operations and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currency.

The Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following established risk management policies including the use of derivatives. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments where the counterparty is primarily a bank.

Annual Report 2023-24

Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in statement of income as cost.

Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:

a) Cash flow hedges

In respect of firm commitments and forecast transactions changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument designated as a cash flow hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income and held in cash flow hedging reserve, net of taxes, a component of equity, to the extent that the hedge is effective. To the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized in the statement of profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses), net within results from operating activities. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the statement of profit and loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, such cumulative balance is immediately recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

b) Others

Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments neither designated as cash flow hedges nor hedges of net investment in foreign operations are recognized in the statement of income and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses), net within results from operating activities.

Changes in fair value and gains/ (losses) on settlement of foreign currency derivative instruments relating to borrowings, which have not been designated as hedges are recorded in finance expenses.

2.22 Segment Information

The Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS-108, "Operating Segments." The CMD of the Company evaluates the segments based on their revenue growth and operating income.

The Company has identified its Operating Segments as Minerals, Precious Metals, Metals, Agro Products, Coal & Hydrocarbon, Fertilizer and General Trade/others.

The Assets and liabilities used in the Company's business that are not identified to any of the operating segments are shown as unallocable assets/liabilities. Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since the assets are used interchangeably and hence a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.

2.23 Prior Period Errors

Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share. However, where retrospective restatement is not practicable for a particular period then the circumstances that lead to the existence of that condition and the description of how and from where the error is corrected are disclosed in Notes to Accounts. Taking into account the nature of activities of the company, prior period errors are considered material if the items of income / expenditure collectively (net) exceed 0.5% of administrative and establishment cost of the company.

i. All Non-Current Investments in Equity Instruments of Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures are carried at cost less impairment in value of investment, if any. The Investment in Equity Instruments of others are carried at Fair Value.

ii. The Company had invested 33.80 crore (P.Y 33.80 crore) towards 26% equity in SICAL Iron Ore Terminal Limited (SIOTL), a Joint Venture between MMTC Ltd. -26%, SICAL Logistic Ltd. (SLL) – 63% and L&T Infrastructure Development Projects Ltd. (L&T IDPL) – 11% for the construction and operation of iron ore terminal at Kamarajar Port Ltd (KPL) (erstwhile Ennore Port Trust), Tamil Nadu. The construction of terminal was completed by November 2010, however the same could not be commissioned due to restrictions on mining, transportation and export of iron ore. Subsequently Ministry of Shipping (MOS) conveyed its approval to KPL to modify the terminal to handle common user coal in 2015. Accordingly, Kamarajar Port Ltd. (KPL) allowed SIOTL for necessary modifications to handle common user coal.

MMTC's Board of Directors during its 428th meeting held on 14.09.2016 approved MMTC's exit through open tender mechanism from the JV. Accordingly, bids were invited from interested bidders for sale of MMTC's equity. No bids were received in the tender process. However, the lead promoter (i.e., M/s Sical Logistics Ltd) agreed to buy MMTC's equity at the reserve price of Rs. 34.26 crore. Accordingly, the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) was signed and in terms of the agreement M/s SICAL Logistics Ltd deposited 0.50 crore with MMTC Chennai office towards performance of the said SPA. As per terms of SPA, M/s SIOTL applied to M/s Kamarajar Port Ltd. for NOC/Permission of MMTC's exit from the JV. The NOC was received in Oct 2019. However, balance payment has not been received so far. Keeping in view the delay in receipt of share purchase value from M/s SICAL Logistics Ltd and financial distress of M/s Sical Logistics Ltd, a provision has been created for 33.80 crore in March'2020 towards impairment in value of investment on SIOTL. Accordingly the investment has been shown as 'Held for Sale'.

KPL issued notice of intent to SIOTL to terminate the License Agreement dated 11.07.2016 on 21.12.2020. MMTC filed a writ petition on 24.06.2021 in Madras High Court against the termination notice issued by KPL. Vide order dated 30.11.2021, this petition has been dismissed by the Hon'ble Madras High Court on the ground that writ is not maintainable before the court. MMTC filed an appeal before Hon'ble Madras High Court challenging the impugned judgement order dated 30.11.2021.

In the meantime, M/s Sical Logistics Limited holding company of SIOTL was undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP). The Company (MMTC) lodged its claim of ` 34.26 Cr with CIRP of Sical Logistics. To safeguard the investment in SIOTL, M/s SICAL Logistics had moved a similar application in main CIRP proceedings to ensure that no adverse order is passed in these proceedings, MMTC filed an application for being impleaded as a party and to be heard before any order is passed. Vide order dated 11.03.2022, NCLT Chennai dismissed SLL's Application for want of Jurisdiction. Accordingly, MMTC's application also stands closed. IRP of SLL had also informed about the successful resolution of SLL duly approved by NCLT vide its order dated 8.12.2022.

M/s SIOTL's two creditors (1. M/s Portman India Private Limited, Chennai 2. M/s ITD Cementation India Limited, Mumbai) initiated corporate insolvency resolution process against SIOTL in NCLT under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016. Vide order dated 01.03.2022, NCLT Chennai admitted their applications and have

appointed same IRP for both cases. RP of SIOTL vide letter dated 02.03.2023 has informed that the members of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) have resolved to liquidate the Corporate Debtor and application for the same has been filed before Hon'ble NCLT for initiation of liquidation process.

Annual Report 2023-24

Therefore as per Regulation 12 (2) of the CIRP Regulation and initiation of liquidation, RP of SIOTL further informed that he cannot consider MMTC claim at this stage. Subsequently MMTC has submitted the claim Form under FORM G to Liquidator in the matter of SIOTL whose response is awaited.

iii. MMTC had invested 26 crore (5.20 crore equity share of 5 Face value) during 2009-10 in ICEX. ICEX Initial equity capital was 100 crore that was later on increased to 266.75 crore. However later on MMTC divested 2 crore share @ 10 per share in 2015-16. After this divestment MMTC's shareholding reduced to 16 crore (3.20 crore share @ 5 Face value) which is 6% of the total share capital of 266.75 crore.

Later on due to erosion of Net worth of ICEX MMTC provided Fair value Adjustment of 8.16 crore and 7.84 crore in 2019-20 and 2021-22 respectively. After such adjustment share value in the books of accounts stands to Nil crore as on 31.03.2024 (P.Y. Nil crore).

As of March 31, 2024, the shares of ICEX are not available for purchase on any stock exchange. MMTC tried to sell its equity in ICEX in FY 2017-18 and again from FY 2019-20 to 2021-22, but market did not show any interest

ICEX Board of directors in its Board meeting held on February 14, 2023 had approved the voluntary surrender of the License/Recognition of the Exchange to Regulator (SEBI) and to discontinue the Commodity derivatives business, which was subsequently approved by the shareholders in the Extra Ordinary General Meeting (Adjourned) held on 24.05.2023.

ICEX has informed that SEBI appointed Valuation process has already been carried out as per SEBI directions and ICEX is shortly expecting SEBI to complete the exit process of surrender of license and expect the final notification in Official Gazette notifying the withdrawal of the License/Recognition of the Exchange by SEBI.

37.3 Financial risk management, objectives and policies

The company's activities expose it to the following financial risks:

  • market risk
  • credit risk and
  • liquidity risk

The company has not arranged funds that have any interest rate risk.

a) Market risk

(i) Foreign Exchange Risk

The company has import and export transactions and hence has foreign exchange risk primarily with respect to the US\$. The company has not arranged funds through long term borrowings. The short-term foreign currency loans (buyer's credit) availed from banks are fixed interest rate borrowings. As a result, the company does not have any interest rate risk. The company's risk management policy is to use hedging instruments to hedge the risk of foreign exchange.

The company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge its exposure in foreign currency risk. The company designates the spot element of forward contracts with reference to relevant spot market exchange rate. The difference between the contracted forward and the spot market exchange rate is treated as the forward element. The changes in the spot exchange rate of hedging instrument that relate to the hedged item is deferred in the cash flow hedge reserve and recognized against the related hedged transaction when it occurs. The forward element of forward exchange contract is deferred in cost of hedging reserve and is recognized to the extent of change in forward element when the transaction occurs.

The following tables show the summary of quantitative data about the company's exposure to foreign currency risk from financial instruments expressed in `:

Sensitivity:

As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, every 1% increase or decrease of the respective foreign currencies compared to our functional currency would impact our profit before tax by approximately NIL crore and NIL crore, respectively.

(i) Price Risk

The company's exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the company and classified in balance sheet as at fair value through other comprehensive income. Out of the two securities held by the company, one is listed in NSE and the other (ICEX) is not listed.

As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, every 1% increase or decrease of the respective equity prices would impact other component of equity by approximately 0.29 crore and 0.05 crore, respectively. It has no impact on profit or loss.

b) Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by a counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables. Accordingly, credit risk from trade receivables has been separately evaluated from all other financial assets in the following paragraphs.

Trade Receivables

The company's outstanding trade receivables are mostly secured through letter of credit/BG except in respect of JV's and Govt of India.

Impairment on trade receivables is recognized based on expected credit loss in accordance with provisions of Ind AS 109. The company's historical experience for customers, present economic condition and present performance of the customers, future outlook for the industry etc. are taken into account for the purposes of expected credit loss. Credit risk exposure

An analysis of age of trade receivables at each reporting date is summarized as follows:

Trade receivables are generally considered credit impaired when overdue for more than three years (except government dues), unless the amount is considered receivable, when recoverability is considered doubtful based on the recovery analysis performed by the company for individual trade receivables. The company considers that all the above financial assets that are not impaired though overdue are of good credit quality.

With regard to certain trade receivables, the company has equivalent trade payables to associate suppliers which are payable on realization of trade receivables. Such trade receivables are considered not impaired though past due. Other financial assets

Credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible because our counterparties are banks. We consider the credit quality of term deposits with scheduled banks which are subject to the regulatory oversight of the Reserve Bank of India to be good, and we review these banking relationships on an ongoing basis. Credit risk related to employee loans are considered negligible since major loans like house building loans, vehicle loans etc. are secured against the property for which loan is granted to the employees. The other employee loans are covered under personal guarantee of concerned employees along with surety bonds of other serving employees. There are no impairment provisions as at each reporting date against these financial assets. We consider all the above financial assets as at the reporting dates to be of good credit quality.

a) Liquidity Risk

Our liquidity needs are monitored on the basis of monthly and yearly projections. The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due.

Due to the dynamic nature of underlying businesses, the company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.

Short term liquidity requirements consists mainly of sundry creditors, expense payable, employee dues arising during the normal course of business as of each reporting date. The company arranges credit from bank and maintains balance in cash and cash equivalents to meet short term liquidity requirements.

The company assesses long term liquidity requirements on a periodical basis and manages them through internal accruals and committed credit lines.

The table below provides details regarding the contractual maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undisclosed cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the company can be required to pay. The table includes both principal & interest cash flows.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF MMTC LIMITED Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Qualified Opinion

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated financial statements of MMTC Limited(hereinafter referred as the "Holding Company"), and its subsidiary subject to Paragraph no. 2 of our report on Other Matter (The Holding Company & its subsidiary together referred to as "the Group") and its joint ventures, which comprises the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2024, the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information(hereinafter referred to as the "Consolidated financial statements")

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the aforesaid consolidated financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the "Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated state of affairs of the Group and its joint venture entities as at March 31, 2024, of consolidated profit and its total comprehensive income (Comprising of net profit and other comprehensive income), consolidated changes in equity and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended.

Basis of Qualified Opinion

  1. We draw attention to Note no. 39(f) to the accompanying financial statements, which states that the liability @1.5% of profit before tax ("PBT") for the year in respect of scheme for retirees prior to 01.01.2007 (closed group) has not been recognized even though Company has reported PBT of Rs.76.03 crores (P.Y. Rs. 1279.16 crores), on the basis of affordability. Also, the Company has not provided for PRMBS for open group @ 4.5% of Basic and DA for serving employees. During the previous year 2021-22, provision in respect of retirees after 01.01.2007 pertaining to FY 2019-20 and 2020-21 had been withdrawn due to loss during these previous years. The non-recognition of provision according to the schemes above constitutes a departure from the accounting standards as prescribed under section 133 of the Act. An amount of Rs.1.14 crore (P.Y. Rs. 19.19 crore) (1.5% of PBT) and Rs. 2.33 crore (P.Y. Rs. 2.91 crore) (4.5% of Basic and DA) estimated by the management, should have been provided as per the accounting standards. Accordingly, the provision for PRMBS would have been increased by Rs.3.47 crore (P.Y. Rs. 22.10 crore) and net income and shareholder's fund would have been reduced by the said amount.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and its joint venture entities, in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("ICAI") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant 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 obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter Auditor's Response
1. Contingent Liabilities
There are a number of litigations
pending before various forums against
the Company and the management's
judgement is required for estimating
the amount to be disclosed as
contingent liability.
We identified this as a key audit matter
because the estimates on which these
amounts are based involve a
significant degree of management
judgement in interpreting the cases
and to determine the possible outcome
of those disputes and independent
legal assessment to pursue the cases
and it may be subject to management
bias.
(Refer Note No. 34 to the consolidated
financial statements read with
Accounting Policy No. 2.14)
We have obtained an understanding of the Company's internal
instructions and procedures in respect of estimation and disclosure of
contingent liabilities and adopted the following audit procedures:
• We obtained list of all the pending legal cases handled at Corporate
Office legal division as on 31st March 2024 with a note from
management on the changes in the status of the cases from that of
last year.
• understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness of
controls as established by the management for obtaining all relevant
information for pending litigation cases;
• discussed with the management regarding any material
developments thereto and latest status of legal matters;
• read various correspondences and related documents pertaining to
litigation cases and relevant external legal opinions obtained by the
management and performed substantive procedures on calculations
supporting the disclosure of contingent liabilities;
• examined management's judgements and assessments in respect of
whether provisions are required;
• considered the management assessments of those matters that are
not disclosed as contingent liability since the probability of material
outflow is considered to be remote;
• reviewed the adequacy and completeness of disclosures;
Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and
disclosures of contingent liabilities are considered to be adequate and
reasonable.

Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Holding Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report related to the Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include the Consolidated Financial Statements and our auditor's report thereon. The other information is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the Consolidated 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 Consolidated Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Consolidated Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Holding Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these consolidated financial statement in terms of the requirement of the Act, that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position, consolidated financial performance including other comprehensive income, consolidated Statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group including its joint venture entities in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Actread with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended.The respective Board of Directorsof the Company included in the Group and of its joint venture entities are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Groupand its joint venture entities 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 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 consolidated financial statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the consolidated financial statements by the directors of the holding company as aforesaid.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its joint venture entities are responsible for assessing ability of the Group and of its joint venture entities to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The respective Board of Directors of the Companies included in the Group and of its joint venture entities are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and of its joint venture entities

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements.

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

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 holding company, its subsidiary and joint venture entities incorporated in India have adequate internal financial controls system 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 ability of the Group and its joint venture entities 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 consolidated 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 Group and its joint venture entities to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group and its joint venture entities to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the consolidated financial statements of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Consolidated Financial Statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Consolidated Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities included in the Consolidated Financial Statements of which we are the independent auditors 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 consolidated financial statements of the current period 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

  • st 1. The financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023, were audited by the predecessor th auditor who expressed a modified opinion on those statements on 30 May 2023, due to non-recognition of provision towards PRMBS for an amount of Rs.20.81 crores.
    1. We did not receive the financial statements / financial information of one wholly owned subsidiary incorporated st in Singapore – MMTC Transnational Pte Ltd (MTPL) for the year ended 31 March 2024, due to the reason that Hon'ble High Court of Singapore vide liquidation hearing held on 27.10.2023 have appointed Joint & Several Liquidators for winding up of MTPL and the liquidation is in process and as such MTPL's control has been taken over by the Liquidator and Company does not have any inputs regarding its financials for the year ended 31.03.2024.

MMTC has been directed by administrative ministry to prepare a road map for scaling down of manpower including exit from various JVs. Also direction has been given for exit from business operation.

Annexure-1 To the Independent Auditor's Report of even date on the Consolidated Financial Statements of MMTC Ltd.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Section 143(3) (i) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of MMTC Ltd. ("the Company") as of March 31, 2024, in conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date

Management's Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls:

The respective Board of Directors of the of the Holding company, its subsidiary company, its associate companies and joint ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, are 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 respective 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 over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal financial controls over financial reporting and the Standards on Auditing, issued by the ICAI deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the ICAI. Those standards and the Guidance Note that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting 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 system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exist, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of the internal control based on the assessed risk . The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of risks of material misstatements of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company's internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting:

A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control over financial reporting 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 consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
  • (3) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting:

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Other Matters

  1. Our aforesaid reports under Section 143(3)(I) of the Act on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls over financial reporting in so far as it relates toone joint venture, which is a company

incorporated in India, is based on the corresponding report of the auditor of such company incorporated in India.

  1. We are not able to comment upon on the adequacy and operating effectiveness of the internal financial controls over financial reporting in so far as it relates to three joint ventures, which are companies incorporated in India and corresponding reports of the auditors of such companies incorporated in India have not been received.

Our report is not modified on the above matters.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Holding Company and its joint ventures, which are companies incorporated in India, have, in all respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2024, 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"

AUDITOR'S OBSERVATION MANAGEMENT'S REPLY
Qualified Opinion
1. We draw attention to Note no. 40(f)(a) to the
accompanying financial statements, which states
that the liability @1.5% of profit before tax ("PBT") for
the year in respect of scheme for retirees prior to
01.01.2007 (closed group) has not been recognized
even though Company has reported PBT of
Rs.76.03 crores (P.Y. Rs. 1279.16 crores), on the
basis of affordability. Also, the Company has not
provided for PRMBS for open group @ 4.5% of Basic
and DA for serving employees. During the previous
year 2021-22, provision in respect of retirees after
An amount of Rs 22.38 crore principal upto March 2023
and Rs 1.68 croe towards interest up to March 2024 was
recoverable from PRMB Trust towards expenditure
incurred by MMTC on behalf of PRMBS trust relating to
FY 2020-21, FY 2021-22 & FY 2022-23 . MMTC's
contribution towards PRMB Trust(close & Open Group)
for FY 2018-19 ,FY 2021-22 & FY 2022-23 was Rs 29.83
crore. The above is as per DPE guideline and books of
accounts. Net payable amount is Rs 5.77 crore.
01.01.2007 pertaining to FY 2019-20 and 2020-21
had been withdrawn due to loss during these
previous years. The non-recognition of provision
according to the schemes above constitutes a
departure from the accounting standards as
prescribed under section 133 of the Act. An amount
of Rs.1.14 crore (P.Y. Rs. 19.19 crore) (1.5% of PBT)
and Rs. 2.33 crore (P.Y. Rs. 2.91 crore) (4.5% of
Basic and DA) estimated by the management,
should have been provided as per the accounting
standards. Accordingly, the provision for PRMBS
would have been increased by Rs.3.47 crore (P.Y.
Rs. 22.10 crore) and net income and shareholder's
fund would have been reduced by the said amount.
The Board of Directors in its 481th Meeting dtd
28.05.2024 (Item no 2.3) after due deliberation has
approved the net payment of Rs 5.77 crores and MMTC

The contribution towards PRMB Trust for FY 2023-24 as
per DPE guidelines will be provided in the financial year
2024-25 after due approval of competent authority.

2.1 a) Statement of Compliance and basis of preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind-AS) as notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and subsequent amendments thereto. Accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements. The Financial Statements are prepared under historical cost convention on going concern basis from the books of accounts maintained under accrual basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value and in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under the Companies Act, 2013

b) Basis of Consolidation

MMTC Limited together with its subsidiaries, associates & joint ventures is hereinafter referred to as 'the Group'. The Company consolidates entities which it owns or controls as per the provisions of Ind AS-110. The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, associates & joint ventures. 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. Non-controlling 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 group , are excluded.

Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. Joint Ventures are entities in which the group has joint control and has rights to the net assets of the entity. Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting as per the provisions of Ind AS-28. The investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor's share of the profit or loss of the investee after the acquisition date.

2.2 Functional & presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, the national currency of India, which is the functional currency of the Company. All amounts included in the financial statements are reported in crores of Indian rupees (upto two decimal) except number of equity shares and per share data and when otherwise indicated.

2.3 Use of estimates and judgment

The preparation of financial statements requires judgements, estimates and assumptions to be made that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities on the date of financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference between the actual results and estimates are recognised in the period in which the results are known/materialised

2.4 Revenue Recognition

i) Trading Income

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.

Purchases and Sales

a. In case of certain commodities import of which is canalized through the company, imported on 'Government Account' against authorization letter issued by the Government of India, Purchase/ Sale is booked in the name of the Company

  • b. Products are also traded through the commodity exchanges. Purchase/ Sale is booked in respect of trade done through different commodity exchanges and is backed by physical delivery of goods.
  • c. Gold/Silver kept under deposit: As per the arrangements with the Suppliers of Gold/Silver, the metal is kept by the supplier with the company on unfixed price basis for subsequent withdrawal on loan or outright purchase basis.
  • (i) Purchases include gold/silver withdrawn from consignment deposit of the supplier on outright purchase basis for sale to exporters, as per the scheme of Foreign Trade Policy being operated by the Company as a nominated agency.
  • (ii) Purchase of Gold/Silver during the year for domestic sale is accounted for on withdrawal from the Gold/Silver consignment deposit of the supplier and fixation of price with the suppliers. The stock held by the company at year end as Gold/ Silver under Deposit is accounted for under current assets as 'stock towards unbilled purchases' and under current liability as 'amount payable towards unbilled purchases' at the bullion price prevailing as at the close of the year. However, customs duty paid in respect of balance in deposits is accounted for as prepaid expenses.
  • (iii) Gold/silver withdrawn on loan basis from the Gold/Silver under deposit, are booked as loan given to customers and grouped under financial assets. The corresponding liability towards the stocks received from foreign suppliers is grouped under Trade Payable. Loan/Trade Payable are adjusted when purchases and sales are booked.
  • d. In respect of Gold/Silver sourced domestically where price fixation is deferred, purchase is initially accounted for on the basis of invoice received from the supplier. The difference, if any, arising on price fixation is accounted for through debit / credit note.
  • e. In the case of gold/silver supplied to exporters on replenishment basis, the purchase in respect of gold/ silver booked by exporter by paying margin money, is booked after "fixing" the price with the foreign suppliers. However, sale is booked when quantity is actually delivered to exporters after completion of export.
  • f. High Sea Sales

Sale during the course of import by transfer of documents of title i.e. high seas sale is booked upon transfer of documents of title to the goods, upon which buyer obtains control over the goods and the company becomes entitle to receive sales consideration, in favour of buyer before the goods cross the custom frontiers of India.

ii) Other Operating Revenue

The income relating to the core activities of the company which are not included in revenue from sales / services for e.g. dispatch earned, subsidy, claims against losses on trade transactions, interest on credit sales and trade related advances (other than on overdue) etc., which are derived based on the terms of related trade agreements with business associates or schemes on related trade, are accounted for under 'Other Operating Revenue'.

iii) Claims

Claims are recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss (Net of any payable) on accrual basis including receivables from Govt. towards subsidy, cash incentives, reimbursement of losses etc, when its ultimate realisation is probable. Claims recognized but subsequently becoming doubtful are provided for through Statement of Profit and Loss. Insurance claims are accounted upon being accepted by the insurance company. Claims towards shortages/ damages including liquidated damages/ deficiencies in quality/quantity etc are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of relevant contracts. In case there is no such provisions in the existing contract, the claim is accounted for on receipt of acceptance by the party besides collectability of the claim amount being probable. On recognition of such claims the same will be realised/set off against advance received/claims payable etc. to the same party.

iv) Service Income

Revenue from services is booked, when performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised services to the customers, for the consideration to which the company is entitled.

v) Dividend and interest income

Dividend income from investments is recognized when the Company's right to receive payment is established and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transactions will flow to the Company and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis taking into account the amount outstanding and the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.

vi) Revenue Recognition on Actual Realization

Revenue is recognized on accrual basis except in the following items which are accounted for on actual realization since realisability of such items is uncertain, in accordance with the provisions of Ind AS- 115:-

  • a) Duty credit/exemption under various promotional schemes of Foreign Trade Policy in force, Tax credit, refund of custom duty on account of survey shortage, and refund of income-tax/service tax / sales-tax /VAT/GST and interest thereon etc.
  • b) Decrees pending for execution/contested dues and interest thereon, if any:
  • c) Interest on overdue recoverable where realisability is uncertain.
  • d) Liquidated damages on suppliers/underwriters.

2.5 Property, Plant and Equipments

The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized as an asset if, and only if 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 cost of an item of PPE is the cash price equivalent at the recognition date. The cost of an item of PPE comprises:

  • i) Purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchase taxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates.
  • ii) Costs directly attributable to bringing the PPE to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
  • iii) The initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which the company incurs either when the PPE is acquired or as a consequence of having used the PPE during a particular period for purposes other than to produce inventories during that period.

The company has chosen the cost model of recognition and this model is applied to an entire class of PPE. After recognition as an asset, an item of PPE is carried at its cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Certain items of small value like calculators, wall clock, kitchen utensils etc. whose useful life is very limited andthe costof such item isupto`2000/- in each case, are directly charged to revenue in the year of purchase. Cost of mobile handsets is also charged to revenue irrespective of cost.

2.6 Intangible Assets

Identifiable intangible assets are recognized when the company controls the asset; it is probable that future economic benefits expected with the respective assets will flow to the company for more than one economic period; and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. At initial recognition, intangible assets are recognized at cost. Intangible assets are amortized on straight line basis over estimated useful lives from the date on which they are available for use. Softwares are amortized over its useful life subject to a maximum period of 5 years or over the license period as applicable. Intangible assets upto`2,000/- in each case are directly charged to revenue.

No intangible assets arising from research is recognised and expense on research directly charged to profit and loss account when it is incurred. An intangible assets arising from development is recognised, if the asset fulfils the criteria for recognition as per Ind AS. Expenditure on an intangible item that was initially recognised as an expense is not recognised as part of the cost of an intangible asset at a later date.

2.7 Non-Current Assets Held for Sale

The company classifies a non-current asset (or disposal group of assets) as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The non-current asset (or disposal group) classified as held for sale is measured at the lower of its carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

2.8 Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on straight line method as per the useful lives approved by the Board of Directors, which are equal to those provided under schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013. The useful life of an asset is reviewed at each financial year-end. Each part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and if the useful life of that part is different from remaining part of the asset; such significant part is depreciated separately. Depreciation on all such items have been provided from the date they are 'Available for Use' till the date of sale / disposal and includes amortization of intangible assets and lease hold assets. Freehold land is not depreciated. An item of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.

2.9 Impairment

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalue amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

At the end of each reporting period, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible, intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those at Fair Value through Profit and Loss (FVTPL), are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. For Available for Sale (AFS) equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.

For all other financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:

Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counter party;

Breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;

It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade receivables, assets are assessed for impairment on individual basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of receivables could include company's past experience of collecting payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments in the portfolio past the average credit period of zero days, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with default on receivables.

For financial assets that are carried at cost, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the current market rate of return for a similar financial asset. Such impairment loss will not be reversed in subsequent periods

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables; such impairment loss is reduced through the use of an allowance account for respective financial asset. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss.

For financial assets measured at amortised cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

De-recognition of financial assets

The Company de-recognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. If the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, The Company recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateralised borrowing for the proceeds received.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

2.10 Borrowing Costs

The Company capitalises borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset as a part of the cost of the asset.

The Company recognises other borrowing costs as an expense in the period in which it incurs them.

A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale.

2.11 Foreign currency translation

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.

At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies

are re-translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

Annual Report 2023-24

Foreign currency monetary items (except overdue recoverable where realisability is uncertain) are converted using the closing rate as defined in the Ind AS-21. Non-monetary items are reported using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. The exchange difference gain/loss is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

Liability in foreign currency relating to acquisition of fixed assets is converted using the closing rate. The difference in exchange is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.12 Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The method of determination of cost and valuation is as under:

  • a) Exports:
  • (i) Cost of export stocks is arrived at after including direct expenses incurred up to the point at which the stocks are lying. Similarly the realisable value is derived by deducting from the market price the expenses to be incurred from that point to the stage where they are sold.
  • (ii) In respect of mineral ores the realisable value of ores is worked out at the minimum of the Fe/Mn contents of the grade of the ore as per export contract and is compared with the weighted average cost at weighted average Fe/Mn contents/weighted average moisture contents of the ore. The embedded stocks of Iron ore are excluded from inventory and hence not valued.
  • b) Imports:
  • (i) The cost of imported stocks is arrived at by working out the yearly regional weighted average cost except for Non-ferrous Metals where weighted average cost of remaining stock after including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered. However, where stocks are specifically identifiable, actual cost of the material including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered.
  • (ii) Gold/Silver purchased from foreign suppliers against booking by exporters under replenishment option and not delivered at the year-end are shown as stocks of company and valued at cost.
  • c) Domestic:
  • (i) The cost of gold/silver medallions and silver articles is arrived at by working out the yearly locationwise weighted average cost of material and cost of opening stock. Costs include manufacturing/ fabrication charges, wastages and other direct cost.
  • (ii) In case of cut & polished stones and jewellery (finished/semi-finished) where stocks are specifically identifiable, actual cost of the material including all expenses incurred up to the point at which they are lying is considered. Costs include wastage and other direct manufacturing costs.
  • d) Packing material

Packing material is valued at lower of the cost or net realisable value.

  • e) Stocks with fabricators
  • Stocks with fabricators are taken as the stocks of the company, till adjustments.

2.13 Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

2.14 Contingent Liabilities / Assets

Contingent Liabilities

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but disclosed in Notes to the Accounts when the company has possible obligation due to past events and existence of the obligation depends upon occurrence or non-occurrence of future events not wholly within the control of the company.

Contingent liabilities are assessed continuously to determine whether outflow of economic resources have become probable. If the outflow becomes probable then relative provision is recognized in the financial statements.

Where an entity is jointly and severally liable for an obligation, the part of the obligation that is expected to be met by other parties is treated as a contingent liability. The entity recognises a provision for the part of the obligation for which an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is probable, except in the extremely rare circumstances where no reliable estimate can be made Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in the General Notes forming part of the accounts

Contingent Assets

Contingent Assets are not recognised in the financial statements. Such contingent assets are assessed continuously and are disclosed in Notes when the inflow of economic benefits becomes probable. If it's virtually certain that inflow of economic benefits will arise then such assets and the relative income will be recognised in the financial statements.

2.15 Leases

An asset held under lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.

An asset held under lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset.

The company normally enters into operating leases which are accounted for as under:-

  • (i) Rental income from operating leases is recognized either on a straight-line basis or another systematic basis over the term of the relevant lease.
  • (ii) Where the company is lessee, at commencement date right to use of assets are recognized at cost and the present value of lease payments that are not paid recognized as lease liability. Subsequently, right of use assets measured by using cost model with any adjustment required for re-measurement of lease liability and lease liability is measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect the interest on lease liability, reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made and re-measuring the carrying amount to reflect any re-assessment or lease modifications.
  • (iii) As a practical expedient , short term leases and leases for which the underlying assets is of low value upto1,00,000/- per month or 12,00,000/-per year are not recognized as per the provisions given under Ind AS-116 (Leases) and are recognized as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.

2.16 Employee benefits

  • i. Provision for gratuity, leave compensation and long service benefits i.e. service award, compassionate gratuity, employees' family benefit scheme and special benefit to MICA division employees is made on the basis of actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Re-measurement, comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the changes to the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), is reflected immediately in the statement of financial position with a charge or credit recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Re-measurement recognized in other comprehensive income is reflected immediately in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to Statement of Profit or Loss and any change due to plan amendment, curtailment and settlement is considered for determining the current service cost, net interest, past service cost or gain/loss for settlement etc.
  • ii. Provision for post-retirement medical benefit is made on defined contribution basis.
  • iii. Provident fund contribution is made to Provident Fund Trust on accrual basis.
  • iv. Payment of Ex-gratia and Notice pay on Voluntary Retirement are charged to revenue in the year incurred.
  • v. Superannuation Pension Benefit, a defined contribution scheme is administered by Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The Company makes contributions based on a specified percentage of each eligible employee's salary.

Short-term employee benefit obligations

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are recorded as expense as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under PRP Scheme, if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

2.17 Taxation

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income/statement of profit or loss because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. In addition, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the

foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

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

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.

Dividend Distribution Tax

Company is recognising the dividend distribution tax payable on payment of dividend under other equity since the dividend payable consequent upon approval of shareholders in Annual General Meeting is also presented under other equity.

Uncertainty over income tax treatments

Company while determining taxable profit (or loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments under Ind AS 12 company is considering the probability of accepting the same treatment by income tax authorities and any change due to this adjusted retrospectively with cumulative effect by adjusting equity on initial application without adjusting comparatives.

2.18 Investment Property

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation (including property under construction for such purposes). Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including transaction costs. All of the Company's property interests held under operating leases to earn rentals or for capital appreciation purposes are accounted for as investment properties. After initial recognition, the company measures investment property at cost.

An investment property is derecognized upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognized.

Investment properties are depreciated in accordance to the class of asset that it belongs and the life of the asset is as conceived for the same class of asset at the Company.

2.19 Earnings per share

A basic earnings per equity is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per equity share is computed by dividing the net profit attributable to the equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earnings per equity share and also the weighted average number of equity shares that could have been issued upon conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. The dilutive potential equity shares are adjusted for the proceeds receivable had the equity shares been actually issued at fair value (i.e. the average market value of the outstanding equity shares). Dilutive potential equity shares are deemed converted as of the beginning of the period, unless issued at a later date. Dilutive potential equity shares are determined independently for each period presented.

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods presented for any shares splits and bonus shares issues including for changes effected prior to the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors.

2.20 Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company's business that represents a separate line of business that has been disposed off or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale.

2.21 Financial instruments

i) Non-derivative financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments consist of:

• financial assets, which include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, finance lease receivables, employee and other advances, investments in equity and debt securities and eligible current and non-current assets;

• Financial liabilities, which include long and short-term loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables, eligible current and non-current liabilities.

Annual Report 2023-24

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offsetted and the net amount is presented in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Non derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus in case of financial assets not recorded at FVTPL, transaction cost attributable to the acquisition of financial asset. Financial assets are derecognized when substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset have been transferred. In cases where substantial risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets are derecognized only when the Company has not retained control over the financial asset.

Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:

a) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, at banks and demand deposits with banks, net of outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and are considered part of the Company's cash management system. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings within current liabilities.

b) Investments in liquid mutual funds, equity securities (other than Subsidiaries, Joint Venture and Associates) are valued at their fair value. These investments are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than

impairment losses, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity, net of taxes. The impairment losses, if any, are reclassified from equity into statement of income. When an available for sale financial asset is derecognized, the related cumulative gain or loss recognised in equity is transferred to the statement of income.

c) Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are presented as current assets, except for those maturing later than 12 months after the reporting date which are presented as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are initially recognized at fair value plus in case of financial assets not recorded at FVTPL, transaction cost attributable to the acquisition of financial asset, however trade receivable that do not contain a significant financing component are measured at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Loans and receivables comprise trade receivables, unbilled revenues and other assets.

The company estimates the un-collectability of accounts receivable by analysing historical payment patterns, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends. If the financial condition of a customer deteriorates, additional allowances may be required.) Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are initially recognized at fair value, and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. For these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short term maturity of these instruments.

e) Investments in Subsidiary, Associates and Joint Venture

The company accounts investment in subsidiary, joint ventures and associates at cost

An entity controlled by the company is considered as a subsidiary of the company.

Investments in subsidiary company outside India are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of acquisition.

Investments where the company has significant influence are classified as associates. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

A joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement is classified as a joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

ii) Derivative financial instruments

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets, liabilities, net investment in foreign operations and forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currency.

The Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by following established risk management policies including the use of derivatives. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments where the counter party is primarily a bank.

Derivatives are recognized and measured at fair value. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in statement of income as cost.

Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured as described below:

a) Cash flow hedges

In respect of firm commitments and forecast transactions changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument designated as a cash flow hedge are recognized in other comprehensive income and held in cash flow hedging reserve, net of taxes, a component of equity, to the extent that the hedge is effective. To the

extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized in the statement of profit and loss and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses), net within results from operating activities. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedging reserve is transferred to the statement of profit and loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, such cumulative balance is immediately recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

b) Others

Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments neither designated as cash flow hedges nor hedges of net investment in foreign operations are recognized in the statement of income and reported within foreign exchange gains/ (losses), net within results from operating activities. Changes in fair value and gains/ (losses) on settlement of foreign currency derivative instruments relating to borrowings, which have not been designated as hedges are recorded in finance expenses.

2.22 Segment Information

The Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by Ind AS-108, "Operating Segments." The CMD of the Company evaluates the segments based on their revenue growth and operating income.

The Company has identified its Operating Segments as Minerals, Precious Metals, Metals, Agro Products, Coal & Hydrocarbon, Fertilizer and General Trade/others.

The Assets and liabilities used in the Company's business that are not identified to any of the operating segments are shown as unallocable assets/liabilities. Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since the assets are used interchangeably and hence a meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.

2.23 Prior Period Errors

Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share. However, where retrospective restatement is not practicable for a particular period then the circumstances that lead to the existence of that condition and the description of how and from where the error is corrected are disclosed in Notes to Accounts. Taking into account the nature of activities of the company, prior period errors are considered material if the items of income / expenditure collectively (net) exceed 0.5% of administrative & establishment cost of the company.

  • I. All Non-Current Investments in Equity Instruments of Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures are carried at cost less impairment in value of investment, if any. The Investment in Equity Instruments of others are carried at Fair Value.
  • ii. The Company had invested 33.80 crore (P.Y 33.80 crore) towards 26% equity in SICAL Iron Ore Terminal Limited (SIOTL), a Joint Venture between MMTC Ltd. -26%, SICAL Logistic Ltd. (SLL) – 63% and L&T Infrastructure Development Projects Ltd. (L&T IDPL) – 11% for the construction and operation of iron ore terminal at Kamarajar Port Ltd (KPL) (erstwhile Ennore Port Trust), Tamil Nadu. The construction of terminal was completed by November 2010, however the same could not be commissioned due to restrictions on mining, transportation and export of iron ore. Subsequently Ministry of Shipping (MOS) conveyed its approval to KPL to modify the terminal to handle common user coal in 2015. Accordingly, Kamarajar Port Ltd. (KPL) allowed SIOTL for necessary modifications to handle common user coal.

MMTC's Board of Directors during its 428th meeting held on 14.09.2016 approved MMTC's exit through open tender mechanism from the JV. Accordingly, bids were invited from interested bidders for sale of MMTC's equity. No bids were received in the tender process. However, the lead promoter (i.e., M/s Sical Logistics Ltd) agreed to buy MMTC's equity at the reserve price of Rs. 34.26 crore. Accordingly, the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) was signed and in terms of the agreement M/s SICAL Logistics Ltd deposited 0.50 crore with MMTC Chennai office towards performance of the said SPA. As per terms of SPA, M/s SIOTL applied to M/s Kamarajar Port Ltd. for NOC/Permission of MMTC's exit from the JV. The NOC was received in Oct 2019. However, balance payment has not been received so far. Keeping in view the delay in receipt of share purchase value from M/s SICAL Logistics Ltd and financial distress of M/s Sical Logistics Ltd, a provision has been created for 33.80 crore in March'2020 towards impairment in value of investment on SIOTL. Accordingly the investment has been shown as 'Held for Sale'.

KPL issued notice of intent to SIOTL to terminate the License Agreement dated 11.07.2016 on 21.12.2020. MMTC filed a writ petition on 24.06.2021 in Madras High Court against the termination notice issued by KPL. Vide order dated 30.11.2021, this petition has been dismissed by the Hon'ble Madras High Court on the ground that writ is not maintainable before the court. MMTC filed an appeal before Hon'ble Madras High Court challenging the impugned judgement order dated 30.11.2021.

In the meantime, M/s Sical Logistics Limited holding company of SIOTL was undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP). The Company (MMTC) lodged its claim of ` 34.26 Cr with CIRP of Sical Logistics. To safeguard the investment in SIOTL, M/s SICAL Logistics had moved a similar application in main CIRP proceedings to ensure that no adverse order is passed in these proceedings, MMTC filed an application for being impleaded as a party and to be heard before any order is passed. Vide order dated 11.03.2022, NCLT Chennai dismissed SLL's Application for want of Jurisdiction. Accordingly, MMTC's application also stands closed. IRP of SLL had also informed about the successful resolution of SLL duly approved by NCLT vide its order dated 8.12.2022.

M/s SIOTL's two creditors (1. M/s Portman India Private Limited, Chennai 2. M/s ITD Cementation India Limited, Mumbai) initiated corporate insolvency resolution process against SIOTL in NCLT under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016. Vide order dated 01.03.2022, NCLT Chennai admitted their applications and have appointed same IRP for both cases. RP of SIOTL vide letter dated 02.03.2023 has informed that the members of the Committee of Creditors (CoC) have resolved to liquidate the Corporate Debtor and application for the same has been filed before Hon'ble NCLT for initiation of liquidation process.

Therefore as per Regulation 12 (2) of the CIRP Regulation and initiation of liquidation, RP of SIOTL further informed that he cannot consider MMTC claim at this stage. Subsequently MMTC has submitted the claim Form under FORM G to Liquidator in the matter of SIOTL whose response is awaited.

iii. MMTC had invested 26 crore (5.20 crore equity share of 5 Face value) during 2009-10 in ICEX. ICEX Initial equity capital was 100 crore that was later on increased to 266.75 crore.

36.3 Financial risk management, objectives and policies

The company's activities expose it to the following financial risks:

  • market risk
  • credit risk and
  • liquidity risk

The company has not arranged funds that have any interest rate risk

a) Market risk

(i) Foreign Exchange Risk

The company has import and export transactions and hence has foreign exchange risk primarily with respect to the US\$. The company has not arranged funds through long term borrowings. The short term foreign currency loans (buyer's credit) availed from banks are fixed interest rate borrowings. As a result, the company does not have any interest rate risk. The company's risk management policy is to use hedging instruments to hedge the risk of foreign exchange.

The company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge its exposure in foreign currency risk. The company designates the spot element of forward contracts with reference to relevant spot market exchange rate. The difference between the contracted forward and the spot market exchange rate is treated as the forward element. The changes in the spot exchange rate of hedging instrument that relate to the hedged item is deferred in the cash flow hedge reserve and recognized against the related hedged transaction when it occurs. The forward element of forward exchange contract is deferred in cost of hedging reserve and is recognized to the extent of change in forward element when the transaction occurs.

The following tables show the summary of quantitative data about the company's exposure to foreign currency risk from financial instruments expressed in `:

Also the company has taken forward exchange contracts in respect of payables at the risk and cost of the associate. Sensitivity:

(i) As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, every 1% increase or decrease of the respective foreign currencies compared to our functional currency would impact our profit before tax by approximately NILcore and NIL crore, respectively.

(ii) Price Risk

The company's exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the company and classified in balance sheet as at fair value through other comprehensive income. Out of the two securities held by the company, one is listed in NSE and the other (ICEX) is not listed.

As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, every 1% increase or decrease of the respective equity prices would impact other component of equity by approximately 0.29croreand 0.05 crore, respectively. It has no impact on profit or loss.

b) Credit Risk

Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by a counterparty resulting in a financial loss. The maximum exposure to the credit risk at the reporting date is primarily from trade receivables. Accordingly, credit risk from trade receivables has been separately evaluated from all other financial assets in the following paragraphs.

Trade Receivables

The company's outstanding trade receivables are mostly secured through letter of credit/BG except in respect of JV's and Govt of India.

Impairment on trade receivables is recognized based on expected credit loss in accordance with provisions of Ind AS 109. The company's historical experience for customers, present economic condition and present performance of the customers, future outlook for the industry etc. are taken into account for the purposes of expected credit loss.

Credit risk exposure

An analysis of age of trade receivables at each reporting date is summarized as follows: (` in crore as at March 31, 2024)

Trade receivables are generally considered credit impaired when overdue for more than three years (except government dues), unless the amount is considered receivable, when recoverability is considered doubtful based on the recovery analysis performed by the company for individual trade receivables. The company considers that all the above financial assets that are not impaired though overdue are of good credit quality.

With regard to certain trade receivables, the company has equivalent trade payables to associate suppliers which are payable on realization of trade receivables. Such trade receivables are considered not impaired though past due.

Other financial assets

Credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents is considered negligible because our counterparties are banks. We consider the credit quality of term deposits with scheduled banks which are subject to the regulatory oversight of the Reserve Bank of India to be good, and we review these banking relationships on an ongoing basis. Credit risk related to employee loans are considered negligible since major loans like house building loans, vehicle loans etc are secured against the property for which loan is granted to the employees. The other employee loans are covered under personal guarantee of concerned employees along with surety bonds of other serving employees. There are no impairment provisions as at each reporting date against these financial assets. We consider all the above financial assets as at the reporting dates to be of good credit quality.

c) Liquidity Risk

Our liquidity needs are monitored on the basis of monthly and yearly projections. The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations and availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due.

Due to the dynamic nature of underlying businesses, the company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.

Short term liquidity requirements consists mainly of sundry creditors, expense payable, employee dues arising during the normal course of business as of each reporting date. The company maintains sufficient balance in cash and cash equivalents to meet short term liquidity requirements.

The company assesses long term liquidity requirements on a periodical basis and manages them through internal accruals and committed credit lines.

The table below provides details regarding the contractual maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undisclosed cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the company can be required to pay. The table includes both principal & interest cash flows.
