We have audited the standalone Ind AS financial
statements of Manaksia Steels Limited ("the Company”),
which comprise the balance sheet as at 31^st March 2026,
and the statement of profit and loss including Other
Comprehensive Income, statement of changes in equity
and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and
notes to the financial statements, including a summary
of material accounting policies and other explanatory
information for the year ended on that date (hereinafter
referred to as "Ind AS financial statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid standalone Ind AS 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, 2026, and its profit
and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and
its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit 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 Auditor's Responsibilities for
the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS 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 independence 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 opinion.

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 for the financial year
ended 31 March 2026. These matters were addressed in
the context of our audit of the financial statements, 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.
For each matter below, our description of how our audit
addressed the matter is provided in that context.

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

Information Other than the Standalone
Ind AS 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 Other Section of Annual
Report, but does not include the financial statements
and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone Ind AS 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 Ind AS
financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information identified above and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the standalone Ind AS 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.

Management's Responsibility for the
Standalone Ind AS financial statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for
the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies
Act, 2013 ("the Act”) with respect to the preparation of
these Standalone Ind AS financial statements that gives
a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, Changes in Equity and cash flows of the
Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed 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 of the assets of
the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds
and other irregularities; selection and application
of appropriate implementation and maintenance
of 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 gives a true
and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone Ind AS 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 are also responsible for overseeing
the company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of
Standalone Ind AS financial statements

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

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

O Identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the Standalone Ind AS 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.

O Obtain an understanding of internal controls relevant
to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section
143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013 we are also
responsible for expressing our opinion on whether
the company has adequate internal financial control
system in place and the operating effectiveness of
such controls.

O Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.

O 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 ability of the Company 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 Ind
AS 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.

O Evaluate the overall presentation, structure
and content of the Standalone Ind AS financial
statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the Standalone Ind AS 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 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.
