the Group, which
comprise cash and
cash equivalents,
loans and advances
and available-for
-sale financial
assets, the Group's
exposure to credit
risk arises from
default of the
counterparty, with
maximum exposure
equal to the carrying
amount of these
instruments.
Since the Group
trades only with

the form of bank
guarantees or
security deposits
from the third
parties.

all financial assets
and liabilities are
representatives of
their fair values at
respective balance

equal to their fair
value following debt
restructuring, which
resulted in a
reduction of the
effective interest
rate of all debt
(Note 12).

27. Segment Reporting
The Concession Agreement
with NOIDA confers certain
economic rights to the
Group. These include
rights to charge toll and
earn advertisement
revenue, development
income and other economic
rights. The income stream
of the Group comprises of
toll income and
advertising income for the
year for which IFRS
compliant financial
statements of the Group
have been prepared.
Both these rights are
directly or indirectly
linked to traffic on the
Delhi Noida Toll Bridge
and are broadly subject to
similar risks. Toll
revenue is fully variable
while license fee from
advertisement is fixed to
a certain extent. The
operating risk in both the
cases is similar and the
expenses cannot be
segregated as the Company
does not have separate
departments for the
management of each
activity. The Management
Information System also
does not capture both
activities separately. As
both emanate from the same
Concession Agreement and
together form a part of
the Return as specified in
the Concession Agreement,
the Group does not have
different business
reporting segments.
Similarly, the Group
operates under a single
geographical segment.

granted to NTBCL the
exclusive right and
authority during the
concession period to
develop, establish,
finance, design,
