          55  Financial risk management objectives and policies
          The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Company’s financial risk management is an integral part of how
          to plan and execute its business strategies. The Board of Directors review and agree policies for managing each of these risks, which are
          summarised below.
          a)   Market risk
             Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, fair values or future cash flows that may result from adverse changes in market rates and
             prices (such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity price risk). Market risk is attributable to all
             market risk-sensitive financial instruments, all foreign currency receivables and payables and all short term and long-term borrowings.
             The Company is exposed to market risks related to foreign exchange rate risk, commodity rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risks,
             such as equity price risks. Thus, the Company’s exposure to market risk is a function of borrowing activities, revenue generating and
             operating activities in foreign currencies.

             i)   Equity price risk
                The Company’s unlisted equity securities are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the
                investments in securities. The Company manages the equity price risk through diversification and by placing limits on individual
                and total equity instruments. The Company’s Board of Directors review and approve, all investments in the equity instruments.
                As at March 31, 2020, the Company had exposure to equity securities measured at fair value. The changes in fair values of the equity
                investments were strongly positively co-related with changes in market index. As at March 31, 2020, the Company did not have
                material investments in / exposure to quoted or unquoted securities.
             ii)   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 rate. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term
                and short term borrowings obligations with floating interest rates.
                The Company manages it’s interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of long term and short term borrowings.
                For the years ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 every 50 basis point decrease in the floating interest rate component
                applicable to its loan and borrowings would increase the Company’s profit by H110.09 Lakhs and H104.35 Lakhs respectively. A 50
                basis point increase in floating interest rate would lead to an equal but opposite effect.
             iii)   Commodity rate risk
                Exposure to market risk with respect to commodity prices primarily arises from the Company’s purchases and sales of active
                pharmaceutical ingredients, including the raw material components for such active pharmaceutical ingredients. The prices of the
                Company’s raw materials generally are stable. Cost of raw materials forms the largest portion of the Company’s cost of revenues.
                A large portion of the Company’s sales are subject to commodity rate risk having a volatile pricing. The Company monitors overall
                demand supply position and pricing movement to decide marketing strategies to overcome risk of changing prices of the products.
