Amarkonda Murgadangal, Gare Palma IV/6, Ramchandi, Urtan North and Jitpur (non-operational) to the

cause as to why the delay in the development of the non-operational coal blocks should not be held as
violation of the terms and conditions of the allocation letters of the said coal blocks, the respective
Hon’ble High Courts have required the Company to keep the said Bank Guarantees alive pending the
decision of the Government (Ministry of Coal) in individual case. The High Courts have restrained the
Ministry of Coal to act in furtherance of its subsequent decision/s, to invoke the bank guarantee/s, for a
further period of two weeks’ time from the date of the communication of such decision/s in order to
enable the Company to challenge such decision/s of the Ministry of Coal. In the meantime, the invocation of

assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
2) Long-term fixed-rate and variable-rate receivables / borrowings are evaluated by the Company based
on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, credit risk and other risk
characteristics. Fair value of variable interest rate borrowings approximates their carrying values. For
fixed interest rate borrowing fair value is determined by using the discounted cash flow (DCF) method using
discount rate that reflects the issuer’s borrowings rate. Risk of non-performance of the Company is
considered to be insignificant in valuation.
3) The fair values of derivatives are estimated by using pricing models, where the inputs to those
models are based on readily observable market parameters basis contractual terms, period to maturity, and
market parameters such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and volatility. These models do not contain
a high level of subjectivity as the valuation techniques used do not require significant judgement, and inputs
thereto are readily observable from actively quoted market prices. Management has evaluated the credit and
non-performance risks associated with its derivative counterparties and believe them to be insignificant and
not warranting a credit adjustment.
12. Financial Risk Management
The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise borrowings, trade
and other payables, and financial guarantee contracts. The main purpose of these financial liabiliti es is to
manage finances for the Company’s operations. The Company’s financial assets comprise investments,
loan and other receivables, trade and other receivables, cash, and deposits that arise directly from its
operations.
The Company’s activities are exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. In order to
minimise adverse effects on the financial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments such
as forward contracts are entered into to hedge foreign currency risk exposure. Derivatives are used
exclusively for hedging purposes and not as trading and speculative purpose.
I. Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices. Market prices comprise three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest
rate risk and other price risks, such as equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial instruments affected
by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, investments, and derivative financial instruments.
The sensitivity analysis in the following sections relate to the position as at 31st March,
2018 and 31st March, 2017.
The analysis exclude the impact of movements in market variables on: the carrying values of gratuity and
other post-retirement obligations; provisions. The sensitivity of the relevant profit or loss item is the
effect of the assumed changes in respective market risks. The Company uses derivative financial instruments
such as foreign exchange forward contracts of varying maturity depending upon the underlying contract and
risk management strategy to manage its exposures to foreign exchange fluctuations.
(a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will
fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. In order to optimize the Company’s position with
regard to interest income and interest expenses and to manage the interest rate risk, the Company performs a
comprehensive corporate interest rate risk management by balancing the proportion of the fixed rate and
floating rate financial instruments in its total portfolio.
The Assumed movement in basis point for interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on currently
observable market environment.
(b) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate
because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company transacts business primarily in Indian Rupees and
US dollars. The Company has obtained foreign currency loans and has foreign currency trade payables and
receivables and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk. Certain transactions of the Company act as a
natural hedge as a portion of both assets and liabilities are denominated in similar foreign currencies. For
the remaining expore to foreign exchange risk the Company adopts a policy of selective hedging based on risk
perception of the management. Foreign exchange contracts are carried at fair value.
The Company hedges its exposure to fluctuati ons by using foreign currency forwards contracts on the
basis of risk perception of the management.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s net foreign currency exposure (net of forward contracts)
denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period as follows:
Foreign currency sensitivity
5% increase or decrease in foreign exchange rates vis- a -vis Indian Rupees, with all other variables
held constant, will have the following impact on profit before tax and other comprehensive income:
The assumed movement in exchange rate sensitivity analysis is based on the currently observable market
environment by the management.
(c) Commodity Price Risk
Commodity Price Risk is the risk that future cash flow of the Company will fluctuate on account of
changes in market price of key raw materials.
The Company is exposed to the movement in price of key raw materials in domestic and internati onal
markets. The Company has in place policies to manage exposure to fluctuations in the prices of the key raw
materials used in operations. The Company enters into contracts for procurement of materials, most of the
transactions are short term fixed price contract and a few transactions are long term fixed price
contracts.
II. Credit risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default on its contractual obligations
resulting in financial loss to the Company. To manage this, the Company periodically assesses the financial
reliability of customers, taking into account the financial conditions, current economic trends, and analysis
of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of assets and whether there has
been a significant increase in credit risk on an ongoing basis through each reporting period. To assess
whether there is significant increase in credit risk, it considers reasonable and supportive forward looking
information such as:
(i) Actual or expected significant adverse changes in business.
(ii) Actual or expected significant changes in the operating results of the counterparty.
(iii) Financial or economic conditions that are expected to cause a significant change to the
counterparty’s ability to meet its obligation
(iv) Significant increase in credit risk and other financial instruments of the same counterparty
(v) Significant changes in the value of collateral supporting the obligation or in the quality of
third party guarantees or credit enhancements.
III. Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk refers to risk of financial distress or extra ordinary high financing cost arising due to
shortage of liquid funds in a situation where business conditions unexpectedly deteriorate and require
financing. The Company’s objective is to maintain at all times optimum levels of liquidity to meet its
cash and collateral requirements. Processes and policies related to such risk are overseen by senior
management and management monitors the Company’s net liquidity position through rolling forecast on the
basis of expected cash flows.
The table below provides details regarding the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities
at the reporting date based on contractual undiscounted payments:
13. Capital Risk Management
The Company manages its capital structures and makes adjustment in light of changes in economic
conditions and requirements of financing covenants. To this end the Company may adjust the dividend payment
to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares.
The primary objective of the Company’s Capital Management is to maximize the shareholder value by
maintaining an efficient capital structure and healthy ratios and safeguard Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. The Company also works towards maintaining optimal capital structure to reduce
the cost of capital. No changes were made in the objectives,policies, process during the year ended
31st March, 2018.
Notes-
(i) Debt is defined as long-term and short-term borrowings including current maturiti es (excluding
derivatives and financial guarantee contracts) as described in notes 23 and 27.
(ii) Equity includes all capital and reserves of the Company that are managed as capital.

15. Stock of work in progress (note 13) includes Stock of Iron Ore/ Fines of 12.22 Million MT lying
with third party. The value of such stock is Rs.2,310.94 Crore as per Management on the basis of valuation
report of Independent Valuer.
16. Impairment Review
Assets are tested for impairment whenever there are any internal or external indicators of
impairment.
Impairment test is performed at the level of each Cash Generating Unit (‘CGU’) or groups of
CGUs within the Company at which the goodwill or other assets are monitored for internal management purposes,
within an operating segment.
The impairment assessment is based on higher of value in use and value from sale calculations.
During the year, the testing did not result in any impairment in the carrying amount of goodwill and
other assets.
The measurement of the cash generating units’ value in use is determined based on financial plans
that have been used by management for internal purposes. The planning horizon reflects the assumptions for
short to- mid term market conditions.
Key assumptions used in value-in-use calculations:
- Operating margins (Earnings before interest and taxes)
- Discount Rate
- Growth Rates
- Capital expenditures
Operating margins: Operating margins have been estimated based on past experience after considering
incremental revenue arising out of adopti on of valued added and data services from the existing and new
customers, though these benefits are partially offset by decline in tariffs in a hyper competitive scenario.
Margins will be positively impacted from the efficiencies and initiatives driven by the Company; at the same
time, factors like higher churn, increased cost of operations may impact the margins negatively.
Discount rate: Discount rate reflects the current market assessment of the risks specific to a CGU or
group of CGUs. The discount rate is estimated based on the weighted average cost of capital for respective
CGU or group of CGUs.
Growth rates: The growth rates used are in line with the long term average growth rates of the respecti
ve industry and country in which the Company operates and are consistent with the forecasts included in the
industry reports.
Capital expenditures: The cash flow forecasts of capital expenditure are based on past experience coupled
with additional capital expenditure required.
