We have audited the standalone financial statements of Bosch
Limited (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance sheet
as at March 31 2026, the Statement of Profit and Loss, including
the statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Cash Flow
Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year
then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements,
including a summary of material accounting policies and other
explanatory information.

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, as amended (“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 March 31, 2026, its profit including other comprehensive
income, its cash flows and the changes in equity 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 (SAs), as 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 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 together with the ethical requirements that are relevant
to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of
the Act 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
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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2026.
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. For each matter below, our description of how our
audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key
audit matters to be communicated in our report. We have fulfilled
the responsibilities described in the Auditor's responsibilities
for the audit of the standalone financial statements section of
our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly,
our audit included the performance of procedures designed to
respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement
of the standalone financial statements. The results of our audit
procedures, including the procedures performed to address the
matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the
accompanying standalone financial statements.

INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AND AUDITOR’S REPORT THEREON

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other
information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Annual 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 such other information is materially inconsistent
with the 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 THE MANAGEMENT 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 including
other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity
of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act read
with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015,
as amended. 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
the 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.

Those 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 standalone
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 control 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 with
reference to financial statements 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 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.

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 for
the financial year ended March 31, 2026 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.
