- advance religion amongst Maharashtrians. 

- preserve and protect good health and to relieve sickness and poverty amongst Maharashtrians. 

- do all such activities that will help Maharashtrians to integrate with British culture and society so that Maharashtrians are benefited by the best of both cultures and make their living in the United Kingdom a fulfilling experience. 

Such activities may not be traditional Maharashtrian but in the spirit of aforesaid objects could cover activities like Sports Club, Education courses, celebration of British national days and so on.

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## **a. Main achievements of the Charity** 

Diwali, Badminton & Cricket tournament, Gudhi Padawa, Shivarajyabhishek, Maharashtra Din, Aphale Buwa Kirtan and Ganeshotsav programmes were celebrated in the Mandal along with few other regular and one off events. The Executive Committee successfully managed these events efficiently coping with vast numbers of attendees. From the total donations, sponsorships & membership subscriptions generated of £73,369, a sum of £37,500 (2023: £2,500) was donated to Maharashtra Mandal UK Ltd (after the year-end). 

## **b. Fundraising activities and income generation** 

Our Fundraising Trustee has been very active in the campaign for raising £425,000 for the freehold purchase of the Charity’s premises at Dollis Hill Lane and activities continued throughout the year. Special efforts were made to meet visitors on a one-to-one basis requesting to become members and donate for building fundraising. Donation appeals have been prepared and continued to be sent to members and given to non members too. Telephone calls were made and what's app messages and emails were sent to members. The Executive Committee has also worked closely with the Fundraising Trustee to co-ordinate fundraising activities and efforts. 

Senior Citizens Club (SCC) sessions were held throughout the year. Various programmes such as singing, lectures on health and board games were organised by the SCC. 

## **Financial review** 

The financial results for the year are set out in accompanying financial statements. 

## **a. Going concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. 

## **b. Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three to six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that in the event of a significant drop in donations, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while considering ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year. 

## **c. Principal risks and uncertainties** 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

## **Structure, governance, and management** 

## **a. Constitution** 

The charity was established by a charitable trust deed dated 9th February 1963. The constitution of the charity was amended and filed with the Charity Commission 5th March 2014. The organisational structure of the charity is divided into two parts i.e. an Executive Committee (EC) and a Board of Trustees (BOT) 

The EC is responsible for the management and administration of the day to day running of the operations of the Charity. The EC is led by a President, who is elected on a periodic basis, together with other committee members who are appointed by the President. 

The BOT are responsible for overseeing the finances, investments, and custody of the Charity’s property. The BOT is led by a chairman and consists of a minimum of four and maximum of six trustees duly appointed under the provisions of charity constitution. One of the trustees is appointed as a Finance Trustee. In addition, the president of the EC acts as ex-officio voting member of the BOT. 

A Nomination committee is appointed who are responsible to scout for the appropriate trustee candidates and after interviewing them and depending on their qualifications, experience and commitment invite them to join the board of trustees. After the incumbent has accepted the invitation the nomination committee then recommends the incumbent(s) to the General Body for their approval of trustee appointment in the members Annual General Meeting. All current trustees accepted the invitation to become trustee of the charity in this manner. 

None of the trustees have any beneficial interest in the Charity. The trustees are also common trustees in the charitable company Maharashtra Mandal UK LTD (MMUKL) limited by guarantee which has similar objectives as this charity. 

The EC members were elected at the Annual General Meeting held on 01 April 2023. 

All members of the Maharashtra Mandal London are also members of Maharashtra Mandal UK LTD. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees have complied with their duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission. 

## **Volunteers** 

We would like to thank all our volunteers for their hard work and commitment throughout the year in the running of various activities and cultural programmes and look forward to their continuous support in the future. 

## **b. Financial risk management** 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

**Notes to the financial statements For the Year Ended 31 October 2024** 

## **1. General information** 

Maharashtra Mandal London is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission. The registered office is 306 Dollis Hill Lane, London, NW2 6HH. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## **2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

Maharashtra Mandal London meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **2.2 Income** 

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

## **2.3 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

**Notes to the financial statements For the Year Ended 31 October 2024** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **2.4 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **2.5 Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **2.6 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. 

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost. 

## **2.7 Financial instruments** 

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **2.8 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
