AUDITOR'S REPORT

You can view full text of the latest Director's Report for the company.
Year End :2025-03 

We have audited the Standalone Financial Statements of IFGL Refractories Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as
at March 31,2025, 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 March
31,2025, 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 :

(a) Note 38 to the Standalone Financial Statements, relating to Amalgamation of the erstwhile IFGL Refractories Limited with the
Company (the amalgamated entity was thereafter renamed as IFGL Refractories Limited) with effect from April 01,2016. Pursuant to
the same, the aforesaid Business Combination was recognized under the 'Purchase Method' as defined under Accounting Standard
(AS) 14, Accounting for Amalgamations and Goodwill arising on such amalgamation aggregating
' 26,699.46 lakhs had been
recognized which is being amortized over a period of ten years with a charge of
' 2,669.95 lakhs per year. However, as per Indian
Accounting Standard (Ind AS) 103, Business Combinations, the aforesaid amalgamation had to be recognized under 'Pooling of
Interest Method' since these were entities under common control.

(b) Note 33(b) to the Standalone Financial Statements regarding uncertainty related to outcome of an appeal by Company in relation
to determination of income tax obligations based on provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 that were applicable prior to the
introduction of the 'Explanation' to Section 10AA(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 with effect from assessment years beginning
April 01,2018. Pending decision by Division Bench of Hon'ble High Court at Calcutta, no adjustments have been considered in the
Financial Statements.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of above 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 March 31, 2025. 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 (as described in Note 2.12 and 24 of the Standalone Financial Statements)

Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies
performance obligation by transferring promised goods
and services to the customer. Performance obligations are
satisfied at a point of time. For the year ended March 31,
2025, the Company's Statement of Profit and Loss included
Revenues from operations of
' 99,763.49 lakhs. The variety
of contractual terms, including the timing of control
transfer and delivery specifications, create complexity and
judgement in determining timing of revenue recognition.
We have considered this as a key audit matter on account
of judgement involved in determining the timing of
revenue of recognition.

Our audit procedures included the following:

a. Evaluated the Company's Revenue Recognition Policy to ensure
compliance with the requirements of Ind AS 115 'Revenue from
Contracts with Customers'.

b. Obtained an understanding of the revenue process and assessed the
design and tested the operating effectiveness of Internal Controls
related to timing of Revenue Recognition.

c. Tested on sample basis the sales transactions including adjustments
to sales price made pre and post year end and tested their underlying
documents to assess that revenue is recognized in the proper period
and in accordance with the Company's revenue recognition policy.

d. Assessed the adequacy of relevant disclosures made in respect of
revenue in the Standalone Financial Statements.

We have determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our report.

Other Information

The Company's Board of Directors is 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.

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 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.

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 March 31,2025 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.

Statements:

• In respect of SAP B1 software and SAP RISE, the audit trail feature is not enabled for direct changes to data when
using certain access rights at database level. 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 SAP B1 and SAP RISE accounting software
where audit trail has been enabled.

• The audit trail feature is not enabled for SARAL system. Further, Service Organization Controls report from the
