We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Ecos (India) Mobility & Hospitality
Limited (the "Company'’), which comprise the standalone balance sheet as at March 31,2026, the standalone
statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive loss), the standalone statement of changes in
equity and the standalone statement of cash flows for the year then ended on that date and notes to the
standalone financial statements, including a summary of the material accounting policies and other
explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as the "Standalone Financial Statements").
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
("Ind AS") specified under section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in
India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2026, and its profit (including other
comprehensive loss), 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
(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 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") read together with the ethical 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 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 Matter
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 Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The Company's Management and board of directors are 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. The Annual Report is expected to be made available
to us after the date of this auditor's report.
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 identified above when it became available 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.
When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we
are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.
Responsibilities of the Management and Board of Director for the Standalone 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair
view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive loss, changes in equity
and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Ind AS specified under Section 133 of the Act.
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 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, the Management and the 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 the Board of Directors 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 the 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 judgement 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 forexpressing
our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to standalone
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 in the standalone financial statements made by the Management and Board of
Directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the Management's and Board of Director'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.
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.
