AUDITOR'S REPORT

You can view full text of the latest Director's Report for the company.
Year End :2026-03 

1. We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Suzlon Energy Limited (‘the Company’),
which comprise the Standalone Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2026, the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss
(including Other Comprehensive Income), the Standalone Statement of Cash Flow and the Standalone Statement
of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including material
accounting policy information and other explanatory information, in which are included the returns for the year
ended on that date audited by the branch auditors of the Company’s branches located at Federal Republic of
Germany and the Kingdom of Netherlands.

2. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, and based on the
consideration of the reports of the branch auditors as referred to in paragraph 16 below, 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 (‘Ind AS’) specified
under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and other
accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2026,
and its profit (including other comprehensive income), its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended
on that date.

Basis for Opinion

3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 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 together with
the audit evidence obtained by the branch auditors, in terms of their reports referred to in paragraph 16 of the
Other Matter section below is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

4. We draw attention to Note 17 to the accompanying standalone financial statements, which describes the
restatement of the comparative financial information for the year ended 31 March 2025, to give effect to the
Scheme of Arrangement (hereinafter referred to as “Scheme”) approved by National Company Law Tribunal
vide its order dated 29 April 2026. As set out in the said note, pursuant to the approved Scheme, the Company
has adjusted the debit balance in the retained earnings of ^ 18,418.43 crores as at the appointed date of 30
September 2024 against the available reserves as on such date in the manner as specified in the Scheme and
further reclassified the balance in general reserves of ^ 912.06 crores as on the appointed date to retained
earnings. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

5. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, and based on the consideration of the
reports of the branch auditors as referred to paragraph 16 below, were of most significance in our audit of the
standalone financial statements of the current year. 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.

6. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Recoverability of trade receivables

As described in Note 10 to the standalone financial
statements, the Company has trade receivables of ^ 5,959.26
crores (net) as on 31 March 2026. Refer Note 2.3 (r) for the
related material accounting policy information.

The Company recognizes loss allowance for trade receivables
based on the expected credit loss (‘ECL’) model using
the simplified approach in accordance with Ind AS 109,
Financial Instruments (‘Ind AS 109’). Assessment of the
recoverability of trade receivables is inherently subjective
and requires significant management judgement and inputs
which includes repayment history and financial position of
entities from whom these balances are recoverable, terms
of underlying arrangements, overdue balances, market
conditions, etc.

Considering the materiality of the amounts, and the
judgement and subjectivity involved in the estimates and
assumptions used in aforesaid ECL assessment, we have
considered this matter as a key audit matter for current
year’s audit.

Our audit procedures in relation to recoverability of
trade receivables included, but were not limited to,
the following:

• Obtained an understanding of, and evaluating
the design, implementation and operating
effectiveness of the internal financial controls
over, the process of estimating recoverability
and the allowance for impairment of trade
receivables including adherence to the
requirements of Ind AS 109;

• Assessed reasonableness of the method,
assumptions and judgements used by the
management with respect to recoverability and
determination of the allowance for impairment
of trade receivables;

• Tested, on sample basis, the key inputs used in
the provisioning model by the Company such
as repayment history, terms of underlying
arrangements, overdue balances, market
conditions, etc.

Obtained balance confirmation for selected
samples and verified the reconciliation for
differences, if any for the confirmations
received;

Assessed the recoverability of overdue
trade receivables through inquiry with the
management and by obtaining sufficient
corroborative evidence to support the
conclusion;

Assessed the net exposure after considering
the other liabilities payable such as liquidated
damages, claims payables to selected trade
receivables;

Tested subsequent settlement of selected trade
receivables after the balance sheet date, and

Assessed the appropriateness of disclosures
made in the standalone financial statements in
accordance with the requirements of applicable
accounting standards.

Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report thereon

7. 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 standalone financial statements and
our auditor’s report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this
auditor’s report.

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 identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the standalone 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.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial
Statements

8. The accompanying standalone financial statements have been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect
to the preparation and presentation 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 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 of 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.

9. In preparing the standalone 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.

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

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

11. 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 Standards on Auditing 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.

12. As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, specified under section 143(10) of the Act 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 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 with reference to 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 management;

• Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Directors’ 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 and

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the business activities and standalone financial
statements of the Company which includes financial information of its branches to express an opinion on the
standalone financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the
audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company of which we are the independent auditors. For
the branches included in the standalone financial statements, which have been audited by the branch auditors,
such branch auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried
out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

13. 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.

14. 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.

15. 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 years 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.

Other Matter

16. We did not audit the annual financial statements of two branches included in the standalone financial statements
of the Company whose financial statements reflects total assets of ^ 63.15 crores as at 31 March 2026, and the
total revenues of ^ 180.88 crores and net cash inflows of ^ 0.02 crores for the year ended on that date. These
annual financial statements have been audited by the branch auditors whose reports have been furnished to us
by the management, and our opinion on the standalone financial statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts
and disclosures included in respect of these branches, and our report in terms of sub-section (3) of section 143
of the Act in so far as it relates to the aforesaid branches, is based solely on the report of such branch auditors.

Further, these branches are located outside India whose financial statements and other financial information
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in their respective countries
and which have been audited by branch auditors under generally accepted auditing standards applicable in India.
The Company’s management has converted the financial statements of such branches from accounting principles
generally accepted in their respective countries to accounting principles generally accepted in India. We have
audited these conversion adjustments made by the Company’s management. Our opinion on the standalone
financial statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of such branches
is based on the report of branch auditors and the conversion adjustments prepared by the management of the
Company and audited by us.

Our opinion above on the standalone financial statements, and our report on other legal and regulatory
requirements below, are not modified in respect of the above matters with respect to our reliance on the work
done by and the reports of the branch auditors.
