Dear Prem Munjal,
Hedge reserve is created for Cash Flow hedges where a decision is made by entities to protect their cash flows of future. Since it would be an unrealised money (movements in the value of hedges), it is shown through Hedge reserve.
Like any other reserve, the value of the underlying asset is increased, and a corresponding reserve is created.
