We have audited the accompanying financial statements of AFLOAT ENTERPRISES LIMITED (Formerly known as
“Adishakti Loha & Ispat Limited) (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31st March 2025, the statement
of profit and loss and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including
a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the
information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in
conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st
March 2025, net profit and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act.
Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of 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 (ICAI) together with ethical requirements that are relevant to our
audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the rules there under, and we have fulfilled our ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidences we
have obtained are 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. We have determined that there are no key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Information other than the 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 Management Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexure to
Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder’s Information, but does not
include the financial statements and the auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statement does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained during the course of our 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 Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the
preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance,
changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the applicable accounting standards and the other
accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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 are operating effectively for insuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to
the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
In the financial statements, management 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
management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain a reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue our 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 due to fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or
in 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 the SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
(i) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations or the override of internal control.
(ii) Obtain an understanding of the internal controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, 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.
(iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.
(iv) 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 financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit
evidence obtained upto the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the
Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
(v) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.
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 controls 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 reasonable be thought
to bear on our independence, and where applicable, relevant safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We
describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,
or when in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because
the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.
