AUDITOR'S REPORT

Year End :2026-03 

We have audited the standalone financial statements
of DLF Limited (‘the Company’), which comprise the
Balance sheet as at 31 March 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 31 March 2026, its profit including other
comprehensive loss, 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.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to note no. 50(8)(i) (a), (b) and (c) to
the standalone financial statements of the Company,
which describes the uncertainty relating to outcome
of following lawsuits filed against the Company:

a) In a complaint filed against the Company relating
to imposing unfair conditions on buyers, the
Competition Commission of India (CCI) has

imposed a penalty of ^ 63,000.00 lakhs on the
Company which was upheld by Competition
Appellate Tribunal. The Company has filed an
appeal which is currently pending with Hon’ble
Supreme Court of India and has deposited
^ 63,000.00 lakhs as per direction of the Hon’ble
Supreme Court of India.

b) In a writ filed with Hon’ble High Court of
Punjab and Haryana, the Company, one of its
subsidiary and a joint venture Company have
received judgements cancelling the sale deeds
of land/ removal of structure relating to two IT
SEZ/ IT Park Projects in Gurgaon. The Company,
its subsidiary and joint venture company filed
Special Leave Petitions (SLPs) challenging the
orders which is currently pending with Hon’ble
Supreme Court of India. The Hon’ble Supreme
Court has admitted the matters and stayed
the operation of the impugned judgements till
further orders in both the cases.

c) Securities and Exchange Board of India (‘SEBI’)
in a complaint filed against the Company,
imposed certain restrictions on the Company.
The Company had received a favorable order
against the appeal in said case from Securities
Appellate Tribunal (‘SAT’). SEBI, subsequently,
has filed a statutory appeal which is currently
pending before Hon’ble Supreme Court. SEBI
has also imposed penalties upon the Company,
some of its directors, officers, its three
subsidiaries and their directors which has been
disposed off by SAT with a direction that these
appeals will stand automatically revived upon
disposal of civil appeal filed by SEBI against
aforementioned SAT judgement.

Based on the advice of the external legal
counsels, no adjustment has been considered
in these Standalone financial statements by the
management in respect of above matters. Our
opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

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 31 March 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.

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Revenue recognition for real estate projects (as described in Note 26 of the standalone financial statements)

The Company applies Ind AS 115 ‘Revenue from
contracts with customers’ for recognition of revenue
from real estate projects, which is being recognised
at a point in time upon the Company satisfying its
performance obligation and the customer obtaining
control of the underlying asset.

Considering application of Ind AS 115 involves
significant judgement in identifying performance
obligations and determining when ‘control’ of the
asset underlying the performance obligation is
transferred to the customer, the same has been
considered as key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included:

• Read the Company’s revenue recognition accounting
policies and assessed compliance of the policies with Ind
AS 115;

• Obtained and understood revenue recognition process
including identification of performance obligations and
determination of transfer of control of the asset underlying
the performance obligation to the customer;

• Read the legal opinion obtained by the Company to
determine the point in time at which the control is transferred
in accordance with the underlying agreements;

• Tested, revenue related transactions with the underlying
customer contracts and documents evidencing the transfer
of control of the assets to the customer based on which
revenue is recognized;

• Assessed that the performance obligation is satisfied by
the Company; and

• Assessed the revenue related disclosures included in note
26 to the standalone financial statements in accordance
with the requirements of Ind AS 115.

Claims, litigations and contingencies (as described in Note 50 of the standalone financial statements)

The Company is having various ongoing litigations,
court and other legal proceedings before tax
& regulatory authorities and courts, including
indemnifications and commitments given to a joint
venture company, which could have significant
financial impact, if the potential exposure were to
materialize.

Management estimates the possible outflow of
economic resources based on legal counsel opinion
and available information on the legal status of the
proceedings.

Considering the determination by the management
of whether, and how much, to provide and/ or
disclose for such contingencies involves significant
judgement and estimation, the same has been
considered as key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• Understood management’s process relating to the
identification and impact analysis of claims, litigations and
contingencies (including commitment & indemnifications
given to Joint Venture Company);

• Obtained confirmation letters from legal counsels and
analysed their responses;

• Read the minutes of meetings of the Audit Committee and
the Board of Directors of the Company related to noting of
status of material litigations; and

• Assessed management’s assumptions and estimates
related to disclosures of contingent liabilities in the
standalone financial statements.

Assessing the carrying value of Inventory and advances paid for land procurement (as described in Note 9,10 and
13 of the standalone financial statements)

The Company’s inventory comprises of ongoing
and completed real estate projects, unlaunched
projects and development rights. As at 31 March
2026, the carrying values of inventories amounts to
^ 1,234,443.49 lakhs.

The inventories are carried at the lower of the cost
and net realizable value (‘NRV’). The determination
of the NRV involves estimates based on prevailing
market conditions, current prices and expected date
of commencement and completion of the project,
the estimated future selling price, cost to complete
projects and selling costs.

Our audit procedures/ tested included, among others:

• Read and evaluated the accounting policies and disclosures
made in the standalone financial statements with respect
to inventories;

• Understood and reviewed the management’s process and
methodology of using key assumptions for determination of
NRV of the inventories;

• Tested the NRV of the inventories to its carrying value in
books on sample basis; and

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Considering significance of the amount of carrying
value of inventories in the standalone financial
statements and the involvement of significant
estimation and judgement in such assessment of
NRV, the same has been considered as key audit
matter.

Further, the Company has made various advances
and deposits to the seller/ intermediary towards
purchase of land during the course of obtaining clear
and marketable title, free from all encumbrances and
transfer of legal title to the Company, whereupon it is
transferred to land stock under inventories.

With respect to land advance given, the net
recoverable value is based on the management’s
estimates and internal documentation, which include,
among other things, the likelihood when the land
acquisition would be completed, the expected date
of plan approvals for commencement of project,
estimation of sale prices and construction costs and
Company’s business plans in respect of such planned
developments.

• Where the Company involved specialists to perform
valuations, we also performed the following procedures:

Ý Obtained and read the valuation report used by the
management for determining the NRV;

Ý Considered the independence, competence and
objectivity of the specialist involved in determination of
valuation; and

Ý Involved internal specialists to review the assumptions
used by the management’s expert.

• In respect of land advances, our audit procedures included
the following:

• Obtained status update from the management and verified
the underlying documents for related developments;

• Compared the acquisition cost of the underlying land with
current market price in similar locations; and

• Evaluated the management assessment w.r.t. recoverability
of those advances and changes if any, in the business plans
relating to such advances.

Assessing impairment of Investments and loans in subsidiary, joint ventures and associate entities (as described in
Note 6A and 8 of the standalone financial statements)

The Company has significant investments and loans
in its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates.
As at 31 March 2026, the carrying values of
Company’s investments and loans in its subsidiaries,
joint ventures and associate entities amounts to
^ 1,900,628.74 lakhs (net of impairment). The
Company has also recorded an impairment provision
of ^ 3,057.18 lakhs against its investment and loans.

Management reviews regularly whether there are
any indicators of impairment by reference to the
requirements under Ind AS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets’.

For investments and loans where impairment
indicators exist, significant judgements are required
to determine the key assumptions used in the
valuation model and methodology, such as revenue
growth, discount rates etc.

Considering, the impairment assessment involves
significant assumptions and judgement, the same
has been considered as key audit matter.

Our procedures in assessing the management’s judgement

for the impairment assessment included, among others, the

following:

• Assessed the Company’s valuation methodology applied in
determining the recoverable amount of the investments and
loans;

• Obtained and read the valuation report used by the
management for determining the fair value (‘recoverable
amount’) of its investments and loans given;

• Obtained and reviewed the management assessment
w.r.t. impairment recorded relating to its investments and
loans;

• Considered the independence, competence and objectivity
of the management specialist involved in determination of
valuation;

• Tested the fair value of the investment and loans as
mentioned in the valuation report to the carrying value in
books;

• Made inquiries with management to understand key drivers
of the cash flow forecasts, discount rates, etc.;

• Involved internal specialists to review the assumptions used
by the management’s expert; and

• We reviewed the disclosures made in the standalone
financial statements regarding such investments and loans.

Assessment of recoverability of deferred tax asset (as described in Note 11 of the standalone financial statements)

As at 31 March 2026, the Company has recognized
deferred tax assets of ^ 43,585.92 lakhs on
deductible temporary differences and unused tax
losses.

Our audit procedures included, amongst others:

• Obtained an understanding of the process and tested
the controls over recording of deferred tax and review of
deferred tax at each reporting date;

• Tested the computation of the amounts recognized as
deferred tax assets;

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Recognition of deferred tax assets to the extent
that it is probable that taxable profit will be
available against which the deductible temporary
differences and the carry forward of unused
tax losses can be utilized, involves significant
management judgement and estimation given
that it is based on assumptions such as the likely
timing and level of future taxable profits which are
affected by expected future market and economic
conditions.

Considering, this involves significant judgement and
estimates, the same has been considered as key
audit matter.

• Evaluated management’s assumptions used to determine
the probability that deferred tax assets recognized in the
balance sheet will be recovered through taxable income in
future years, by comparing them against profit trends and
future business plans; and

• Assessed the disclosures on deferred tax included in note
11 to the standalone financial statements.

Related party transactions (as described in Note 45 of the standalone financial statements)

The Company has undertaken transactions with its
related parties in the ordinary course of business
at arm’s length. These include making new or
additional investments in its subsidiaries and
associate; lending loans to related parties; sales
and purchases to and from related parties, etc. as
disclosed in note 45 to the standalone financial
statements.

We identified the accuracy and completeness of
the related party transactions and its disclosure
as set out in respective notes to the standalone
financial statements as a key audit matter due to
the significance of transactions with related parties
and regulatory compliances thereon, during the year
ended 31 March 2026.

Our procedures/ testing included the following:

• Obtained and read the Company’s policies, processes
and procedures in respect of identifying related parties,
obtaining approval, recording and disclosure of related
party transactions;

• Read minutes of shareholders’ meetings, board meetings
and minutes of meetings of those charged with governance
in connection with Company’s assessment of related party
transactions being in the ordinary course of business at
arm’s length;

• Tested, related party transactions with the underlying
contracts, confirmation letters and other supporting
documents; and

• Agreed the related party information disclosed in the
standalone financial statements with the underlying
supporting documents, on a sample basis.


Information Other than the Standalone Financial
Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible
for the other information. The other information
comprises the Chairman’s Message, Board’s
Report, Management Discussion and Analysis
Report and Corporate Governance 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 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 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 31 March 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.

Other Matters

The comparative financial statements and other
financial information of the Company for the year

ended 31 March 2025 included in these standalone
financial statements, are restated pursuant to
Scheme of Amalgamation as explained in note 58 of

as it relates to the aforesaid partnership firm, is

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The accompanying standalone financial statements
include unaudited financial statements and
other unaudited financial information as regards
Company’s share in (loss) of partnership firm (post tax)
of ^ 400.24 lakhs for the year ended 31 March 2026.
These unaudited financial statements and other
unaudited financial information has been furnished
to us by the management. Our opinion, in so far as
it relates to Company’s share of profit included in
respect of the partnership firm, is based solely on
the on such unaudited financial statements and
other unaudited financial information. In our opinion

and according to the information and explanations
given to us by the Management, these financial
statements and other financial information are not
material to the Company.

Our opinion above on the standalone financial

legacy accounting software to new
accounting software during the year.
Based on our examination of legacy
and new accounting software, which
included test checks and review of
Service Organisation Controls report
of legacy software operated by a
third party service provider, both
accounting software has a feature of

recording audit trail (edit log) facility
and the same has operated throughout
the year for all relevant transactions
recorded in both software, except that
in respect of new accounting software
where audit trail feature was not
enabled for direct changes to data
when using certain access rights, as
described in note 59 to the financial
statements. Further, during the course
of our audit we did not come across
any instance of audit trail feature
being tampered with in respect of the
new and legacy accounting software
wherever enabled. Additionally, the
audit trail for the financial year ended
31 March 2025 has been preserved
by the Company as per the statutory
requirements for record retention,

however for the reasons stated in
aforesaid note, we are unable to
comment whether the audit trail
feature for the financial year ended
31 March 2024 has been preserved
by the Company in compliance with
the statutory requirements for record
retention.
