Year End :2026-03 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of LOKESH MACHINES LIMITED ("the company”), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2026, 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 the material accounting policies and other explanatory information (herein after referred to as "the
financial statements”)

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the accompanying
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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of
affairs of the Company as at March 31,2026, the profit and other 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 financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors responsibility
for the
Audit of 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 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 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
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
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.
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matters

Auditor’s Response

OFAC Sanctions - Continuing Regulatory Uncertainty
and Mitigation

As reported in the previous year, on October 30, 2024,
the Company was included on the US Department of
the Treasury OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons (SDN) List.

As a continuing consequence, the Company remained
unable to enter into any foreign currency transactions
throughout the period from October 30, 2024 to
March 31,2026.

During the current year, the delisting process
advanced through two further rounds of regulatory
engagement:

We identified this as a key audit matter because:

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements and auditor's reports thereon.
The annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified
above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the 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 applicable under the relevant
laws and regulations.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance 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 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 Indian
Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued there under 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 of the assets of the company and for preventing and detecting the 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors 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 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 responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit. We also:

♦ Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the 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 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.
