We have audited the accompanying standalone financial
statements of Arihant Foundations and Housing Limited

(“the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at
March 31, 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including
Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in
Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on
that date, and a summary of the significant accounting policies
and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according
to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone
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 Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the
Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015, as amended, (“Ind AS”) and other accounting
principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs
of the Company as at March 31, 2025, the profit and total

comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows
for the year ended on that date.

BASIS FOR OPINION

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial
statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of
the Standalone 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 the independence
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone
financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the
Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and
the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial
statements.

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 the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS (Contd.)

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 Management
Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexures
to Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate
Governance and Shareholder’s Information, 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 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.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY

FOR THE STANDALONE 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 standalone financial statements
that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity
and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS
and 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 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, 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 Company’s Board of Directors are 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 standalone
financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism
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 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.

• 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 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 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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with
governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the standalone 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, 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.
