Discount rate: The discount rate is based on prevailing market yields of Indian Government securities as at the end of the year for the estimated term of the obligations .

Salary escalation rate: The estimates of future salary increases considered take into account the inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors. Assumptions regarding future mortality are based on published statistics and mortality tables. The Group assesses these assumptions with the projected long-term plans of growth and prevalent industry standards.

The present value of defined benefit obligation has been arrived at using the same method as is used for valuing the defined benefit obligation as per the current assumptions. The increase/decrease in defined benefit obligation has been arrived assuming the other assumptions are constant though such increase/decrease do not happen in isolation in real scenarios. Contributions to defined contribution plans In accordance with Indian law, all employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which is a defined contribution plan. Both the employee and employer make monthly contributions to the plan, each equal to a specified percentage of employee’s basic salary. The Group has no further obligations under the plan beyond its monthly contributions. The Group contributed ₹ 135,589, ₹ 114,374 and ₹ 117,941 for the years ended March 31, 202 2 , 20 21 and 2020.
