and give a true and fair view in conformity with

affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and

2 Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Ind
AS 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 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 together with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit

of the Standalone Ind AS financial statements under
the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 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 opinion on the Standalone Ind AS financial
statements.

3 Key Audit Matter

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgement, were of most significant 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;

Foreign exchange fluctuation and export policies of
the Government of India and other countries are
considered to be Key Audit Matters. A significant
portion of revenue is generated through export of
products of the company. Any change in the duty
structure, import and export policy has significant
bearing on revenue realisation of the Company.
Fluctuation in exchange rate of Indian currency has
significant bearing on profitability of the company.

How our audit addressed the audit matter:

Our audit approach includes verification of balances
outstanding (Debits and Credits) on account of
foreign currencies; as at the end of the year and to
assure that the same is adjusted to a value at the
exchange rate that is prevailing at the close of last
day of the current year.

4 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
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 Ind AS 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 or
conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the Standalone
Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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.

5 Management''s Responsibility for the
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 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 accounting principles generally accepted in
India, including the accounting Standards 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 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 Standalone
Ind AS financial statement that give 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 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 management either intends to liquidate the
Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for
overseeing the company''s financial reporting
process.

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

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

a 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.

b Obtain an understanding of internal financial
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 system in
place and the operating effectiveness of such
controls.

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

d 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 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.

e 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.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements
in the Standalone Ind AS financial statements
that, individually or in aggregate, makes it
probable that the economic decisions of
a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
Standalone Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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
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 Ind AS 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.

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 management 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 Responsibility 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 SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exits. Misstatement 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.

12. 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, 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 sec-143(3)(i) of the Act. We are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial control 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 appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting and base on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or commissions that may caste 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 auditors'' report to the related disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modified 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 misstatement 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 misstatement in the Standalone Financial Statements.

Communication with those charged with the governance.

• 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 the 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 determined those matters that were of most significance in the audit of financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We described these matters in our auditors'' report unless law or regulations precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determined that the matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably we expected to overweight the public interest benefits of such communications.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements:

13. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2016 ("the Order") issued by the Central Government of India in terms of Section 143(11) of the Act, and the basis of such checks of books and records of the company as we considered appropriate and according to the information and explanations give to us, we give in the "Annexure 1" a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

Annexure "B"

To the Independent Auditor''s Report of even date on the Standalone IND AS Financial Statements of AKAR AUTO INDUSTRIES LTD.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub Section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of AKAR AUTO INDUSTRIES LTD. ("the Company") as of March, 31st 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone IND AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the ICAI). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the Company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditor''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143 (10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting, and the guidance note on internal financial controls over financial reporting (the guidance Note) issued by the ICAI. Those standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting were established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone IND AS financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of standalone financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of standalone financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the standalone financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31,2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of internal Financial controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Annexure 2 to the Independent Auditor''s Report of even date on the Standalone Financial Statements of Akar Tools Limited

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause(i) of Sub Section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act,2013 ("the Act")

TO THE MEMBERS OF AKAR TOOLS LTD.

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the Company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditor''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing as specified under section 143 (10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Out audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31,2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of internal Financial controls over Financial Reporting issued by the institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
