We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of KN AGRI RESOURCES LIMITED ("the
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 a summary of significant 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 prescribed
under section 133 of the Act read with the 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, 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 there under, 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.
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 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. On the facts and circumstances of the entity and the audit, that
there are no key audit matters to communicate.
Information other than the financial statements and auditors' report thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for 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 Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does
not include the consolidated financial statements, 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 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, 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 is also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the 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 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 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 the 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 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.
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.
