"Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other
Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that
date and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of 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") prescribed under section 133 of the
Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules 2015, the relevant circulars, guidelines and directions
issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from time to time and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of
the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025 and its profit, total comprehensive income, 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 ("SA"s)
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") 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 the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements.
Emphasis of Matters
i. We draw attention to Note No 53 of the Standalone Financial Statements in respect of valuation of Inventories of
Unquoted Shares which are valued at cost and is subject to the valuation by independent valuer. As per
management explanation they are under process to carrying out fair valuation from registered valuer and the cost is
almost lower of cost and market price whichever is lower, hence these are shown at its original purchase cost. In the
present we are unable to comment consequences of such transactions.
ii. We draw attention to Note No 54 of the Standalone Financial Statements in respect of Balances of trade receivable,
loans and advances, trade payable etc. which are subject to confirmation from the respective parties and
consequently reconciliation/ adjustment arising therefrom, if any to ascertain the fair market value.
iii. We draw attention to Note No 32 of the Standalone Financial Statements in respect of Employees Retirement
Benefit that no actuarial valuation report from the professional valuer was obtained on account of liability of
employment benefit in the near future, if any, as the management has observed that there is no such liability at
present.
iv. We draw attention to Note No 48 of the Standalone Financial Statements in respect of non-traded / suspended
stock which are valued at last traded price and the management is in opinion that the value as shown is fair value
and has no impact on Statement of Profit & Loss.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
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 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. Based on the
circumstances and facts of the audit and entity, there aren't key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to
Board's Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, 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 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.
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.
Management's Responsibility 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 and presentation of these Standalone 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 Ind AS specified under section
133 of the Act and RBI guidelines. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in
accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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, 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Company's 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 controls.
• Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3X0 of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our
opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system 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 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 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.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the company to express an
opinion on the standalone financial statements.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone 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 standalone 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.
