 which comprises of Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the
 Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive
 Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement
 of Cash Flow for the year then ended, and a summary of
 significant accounting policies and other explanatory
 information (hereinafter referred to as “the financial
 statements”).
 In our opinion and to the best of our information and accordingto the explanations given to us, the aforesaid 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
 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, 2024, its losses including total comprehensive
 income, its changes in equity and its cash flows for the year
 ended on that date.
 Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards onAuditing (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 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 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 financial statements.
 Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern Without qualifying, we draw your attention to note no. 40 of thefinancial statements with respect to the fact that the financial
 statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
 contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
 liabilities in the normal course of business though the Company
 has incurred cash loss during the current year, losses during last
 many years, having eroded its entire net worth and that the
 operations of the manufacturing plants at Kolhapur have
 continued grinding halt since 25th March, 2019 andannouncement of their closure on 30th March, 2022. The
 management has settled dues of lender banks (by borrowing
 from promoter group companies), is studying ways to revive
 operations of the Company as also to undertake the further
 development of available land area at Kolhapur in near future
 and in view of such positivities, the financial statements have
 been prepared on a going concern basis.
 Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professionaljudgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
 statements of the current period. 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.

 |  Information Other than the Financial Statements andAuditor’s Report Thereon
 The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for thepreparation of other information. The other information
 comprises the information included in the Management
 Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexures
 to the Board Report, Corporate Governance report and
 Shareholder’s information, but does not include the financialstatement and our auditor’s report thereon.
 Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover theother information and we do not express any form of assurance
 conclusion thereon.
 In connection with our audit of the financial statements, ourresponsibility 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 during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to
 be materially misstated.
 If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude thatthere 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 FinancialStatements
 The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for thematters 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, total
 comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the
 Company in accordance with 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 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, the Management isresponsible 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 Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing theCompany’s financial reporting process.
 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the FinancialStatements
 Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance aboutwhether the financial statements 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 thatan 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 exerciseprofessional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
 throughout the audit. We also:
 •    Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of thefinancial 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 theaudit 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 control system in place and the operating
 effectiveness of such controls.
 •    Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies usedand the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
 disclosures made by the management.
 •    Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use ofthe 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 entity’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 entity to cease to
 continue as a going concern.
 •    Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content ofthe financial statements, including the disclosures, and
 whether the financial statements represent the underlying
 transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
 presentation.
 Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financialstatements 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 workand (ii) to evaluate the effect of an identified misstatements in
 the financial statements.
 We communicate with those charged with governanceregarding, 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 astatement 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 withgovernance, 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 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.
