            (d)  Providend Fund
                 The Company operates Provident Fund Schemes and the contributions are made to recognised funds maintained by the Company.
                The Company is required to offer a defined benefit interest rate guarantee on provident fund balances of employees. The interest
                rate guarantee is payable to the employees for the year when the exempt fund declares a return on provident fund investments
                which is less than the rate declared by the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner (RPFC) on the provident fund corpus for their own
                subscribers. The Actuary has provided a valuation for provident fund liabilities on the basis of guidance issued by Actuarial Society of
                India and based on the below provided assumptions, shortfall between plan assets as the end of the year and the present value of
                funded obligation has been recognised in the Standalone Balance Sheet and Other Comprehensive Income.
                The details of fund and plan assets position are given below:                          ` in crore
                                                                                           As at          As at

                                                                                   March 31, 2022  March 31, 2021

                 Less: Present value of funded obligation                                 335.47         330.35
                 Amount recognised in the Standalone Balance Sheet                             -         (2.35)
                 Assumptions used in determining present value of obligation of interest rate guarantee under a deterministic approach:
                 Guaranteed rate of return                                                 8.10%         8.50%
                 Discount rate for remaining term to maturity of investments               6.65%         6.45%
                 Discount rate                                                             7.00%         6.50%
                 Expected rate of return on investments                                    8.78%         8.57%

            (e)  The defined benefit scheme is administered by a fund that is legally separated from the Company. Responsibility for governance of
                the scheme lies with the board of trustees. The board of trustees must be composed of representatives of the Company and scheme
                participants in accordance with the scheme rules and on timely basis, the board of trustees reviews the level of funding for the
                scheme as required by legislation. Such a review includes the asset-liabilities matching strategy and investment risk management
                policy and is used to determine the schedule of contributions payable by and agreed with the Company.
