We have audited the accompanying standalone financial
statements of Mahanagar Gas Limited (the “Company”), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, and the
Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive
Income), the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of
Changes in Equity for the year ended on that date, and notes
to the 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 (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, (“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, 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 (“SA”s) specified under

section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards
are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibility 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
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. We have
determined the matters described below to be the key audit
matters to be communicated in our report.

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

• The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the
other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Director’s report, Business
responsibility report, Management Discussion and Analysis
and Corporate Governance report, 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 Board of
Directors 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 Ind AS specified
under section 133 of the Act. 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 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
intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has
no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Company’s Board of Directors is also responsible for
overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility 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 with reference to standalone 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 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 financial controls 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.
