generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of
the Company as at March 31 2025, its profit, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
("SAs") specified under section 143(10) of the Companies
Act, 2013. 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 we have obtained 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. We have determined
the matters described below to be the 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, Business
Responsibility and Sustainability 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.

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 gives 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 specified
under section 133 of the Act 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
Ind AS 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 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 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 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.
