which comprises the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2025, the

Basis For Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
(SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Standalone the Financial
Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in
accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of
the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements
and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment,
were of most significance in our audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements as a whole,
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters.
Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and
Auditor's Report Thereon.
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of
the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the board's report including Annexure to Board's Report but
does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor's
report thereon.
Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the
other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements, our
responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work
we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement
of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance
for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated
in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to
the preparation and presentation of these Standalone Financial
Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the
accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting
records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of
the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and
other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting
policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and
prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate
internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring
the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to
the preparation and presentation of the Standalone Financial
Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the Board of
Directors is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the
Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Board of
Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial
reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
Standalone Financial Statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these
financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone
Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform
audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The
risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of
internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we
are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company
has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the
operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made
by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going
concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,
whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related
disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if such
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are
based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to
cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the
Standalone Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial
Statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the
economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone
Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative
materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work
and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any
identified misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among
other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that
we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with
governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all
relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
