AUDITOR'S REPORT

You can view full text of the latest Director's Report for the company.
Year End :2026-03 

We have audited the accompanying Financial statements of Choksi Laboratories Limited (“the Company”), which comprise
the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2026, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), the Statement
of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “the financial statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid 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 Indian accounting standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of
affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2026, and its Profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash
flows for the year ended on that date.

II. Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Financial Statements 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
ofthe 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 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 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 opinion on the financial statements.

III. Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
statements for the financial year ended 31st March, 2026. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the 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

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Information Technology (IT) System & Control Impacting
Financial Reporting

The Company operates an accounting and enterprise software
system across its head office and branch locations, which is
integral to its financial reporting processes. The IT environment
is moderately complex and supports the processing and recording
of financial transactions at multiple locations.

The integrity and reliability of financial reporting are highly
dependent on such IT systems and the associated control
environment, which includes:

• IT general controls over user access, change
management, application, network, database, and
operating systems

• Automated application controls, including system
calculations and workflows

Due to the importance of IT systems and controls to financial
reporting and in light of a cybersecurity incident that occurred on
22 May 2025, we identified testing of these IT systems and
controls as a key audit matter for the current year audit.

In assessing the integrity of the IT systems and controls, we
involved our IT specialists to:

• Understand the IT infrastructure and systems relevant to
the Company's financial reporting

• Evaluate and test the design and operating effectiveness
of IT general controls and key automated controls

• Assess controls over user access management, including
periodic review and removal of access rights

• Test segregation of duties and preventive controls to
ensure access to change applications in the production
environment is restricted to authorized personnel

• Evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of key
automated controls within relevant business processes,
including accuracy of system interfaces and data
processing

Our procedures also considered any remediation measures
undertaken by the Company in response to the cybersecurity
event, and whether these actions mitigated potential risks to
financial reporting.(refer Note 62)

Based on the above procedures and the additional controls
implemented post-incident, we did not identify material
weaknesses that would affect the integrity of financial reporting.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company determines the allowance for credit losses on trade
receivables based on historical loss experience, adjusted for
current and forward-looking economic conditions.

This involves significant judgment, including:

- Estimating the probability of default

- Evaluating macroeconomic conditions and industry-specific
risks

- Assessing customer-specific credit information

Given the use of complex assumptions and significant estimation
uncertainty, we considered this a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included:

- Testing the design and effectiveness of controls over the
estimation methodology, data accuracy, and assumptions

- Verifying the completeness and accuracy of trade receivable
ageing data used in the model

- Re-computing the expected credit loss based on the inputs
provided by the Company

- Evaluating the reasonableness of assumptions in the context of
current economic conditions

- Assessing the consistency of the methodology with applicable
accounting standards

We found that the assumptions used by the Company were
reasonable and the methodology was consistently applied.

Provisions & Contingent Liabilities

The Company is involved in various legal, regulatory, and tax-
related matters that require management to assess the likelihood
of outflows and estimate potential liabilities.

Significant judgment is required to determine whether a provision
should be recognized or disclosed as a contingent liability, and to
estimate the amount of such obligations, in accordance with Ind
AS 37.

Given the inherent uncertainties and materiality of these
estimates, we identified provisions and contingent liabilities as a
key audit matter.

We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls
related to:

- Identification, evaluation, and monitoring of legal and
regulatory matters

- Estimation processes used by management

We discussed significant litigations and claims with management
and internal legal counsel. We also:

- Reviewed external legal opinions, where available

- Assessed the adequacy of provisions recorded

- Evaluated the appropriateness and completeness of related
disclosures in Note 35 to the financial statements

Based on our procedures, we found the provisions and contingent
liability disclosures to be appropriate.

Related Party Transactions

Our procedures included:

The Company enters into transactions with related parties in the
ordinary course of business. These transactions are subject to
regulatory approvals under the Companies Act, 2013, and SEBI
(LODR) Regulations, 2015.

- Evaluating the design and effectiveness of controls over
identification, authorization, and disclosure of related party
transactions

- Reading Board and Audit Committee minutes to assess
whether all transactions were appropriately reviewed and

Due to the risk of non-disclosure, potential non-compliance, and
significance of such transactions to the financial statements, we
identified related party transactions as a key audit matter.

approved

- Verifying compliance with Sections 177 and 188 of the
Companies Act, 2013

- Reviewing disclosures in the financial statements for
completeness and accuracy

Based on our procedures, we found that related party
transactions were appropriately identified, approved, and
disclosed in accordance with applicable requirements.

IV. Information other than the financial statements and Auditor's Report thereon

The Company's management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the Company's annual report, but does not include the Financial Statements
and our auditors' report thereon.

Our opinion on the 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 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 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.

V. Responsibilities of Management and those charged with governance for the financial statements

The Company's management and Board of Directors are 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 including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows 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 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 Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management and Board of Directors are 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 Board of Directors and 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.

VI. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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:

a. 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 for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.

b. 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 over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

c. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by management.

d. 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 auditors'
report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

e. 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.

f. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the 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 Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditors' 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.
