Year End :2025-03 

We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of Gujarat Gas Limited (herein after referred to as "the
Company”), which comprise the Standalone Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2025, the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss
(including Other Comprehensive Income), the Standalone Statement of Changes in Equity and the Standalone Statement of Cash
Flows for the year ended on that date, and notes to the Standalone Financial Statements, including a summary of the material
accounting policies and other explanatory information (herein after 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 (hereinafter referred to as "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
the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended, (hereinafter referred to as "Ind AS”) and other accounting
principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 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 (hereinafter referred
to as "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 (hereinafter referred to as
"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 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

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, Business
Responsibility and Sustainability 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.

When we read the Final Annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate
the matter to those charged with governance and take necessary actions as per applicable laws and regulations.

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, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the 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 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 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.

The Board of Directors are 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 financial controls 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 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
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 standalone the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.

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 standalone 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 standalone 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.
