Dynamics Limited (‘the company’),
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March

Companies Act, 2013, as amended (''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

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

appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements.

Emphasis of matter

We draw attention to the following matters in the notes to the Standalone Financial
Statements:

a) note 38(7) which describes inventory not moved for more than five years amounting
to ? 8331.44 lakhs (? 8338.85 lakhs as of 31 March 2024) for which no provision for

redundancy were made as is required by the company''s accounting policy for the
reasons stated there at;

b) note 28 which describes the recognition of a provision for onerous contracts
amounting to ?13,461.18 Lakh during the quarter ended 31 December 2024, and an
additional provision of ? 678.96 Lakh during the quarter ended 31 March 2025, in
accordance with Ind AS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities, and Contingent
Assets

Our conclusion is not modified in respect of these matters

Key Audit Matters

1. 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 year ended 31
March 2025. 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.

2. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is
provided in that context. We have determined the matters described below to be the
key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the Key
Audit Matters

(a)

Provision and contingent liabilities relating to ongoing litigations

The Company is subject to a number of
legal, regulatory and tax cases for which
final outcome cannot be easily predicted
and which could potentially result in
significant liabilities.

Management’s disclosures with regards
to provisions and contingent liabilities
relating to ongoing litigation are
presented in Note No. 38(6) of the
Standalone Financial Statements.

The assessment of whether a liability is
recognized as a provision or disclosed
as a contingent liability in the
Standalone Financial Statements is

Our audit procedures included, but were
not limited to the following;

• Obtained understanding of the
process of identification and
measurement of provisions and
contingent liabilities relating to
ongoing litigations implemented
by the Management, through
various discussions held with
Company''s legal and finance
personnel.

• Tested the design and operating
effectiveness of the controls put
in place by the management in
relation to assessment of the
outcome of the pending

inherently subjective and requires
significant management judgement in
determination of the cash outflows from
the business, interpretation of applicable
laws and regulations, and careful
examination of pending assessments at
various levels of authorities.

Since the amounts involved are
significant and due to the range of
possible outcomes leading to high
estimation uncertainty that requires
significant management and auditor
judgement, this matter is considered to
be a key audit matter for the current
year audit.

litigations.

• Inspected the summary of
litigation matters and discussed
key developments during the
year with the Company’s Legal
and Finance personnel.

• Inspected and evaluated, where
applicable, external legal advice
sought by the Company.
Obtained direct confirmations
from the dealing lawyers for
certain material ongoing
litigations.

• Discussed and challenged the
management’s assessment of
the likelihood, magnitude and
accounting of any liability that
may arise in certain material
cases based on PPR analysis.
Accordingly, we reviewed the
amount of contingent liabilities
disclosed in the Standalone
Financial Statements and
exercised our professional
judgment to assess
appropriateness of such
conclusions, involving experts as
required.

• Evaluated the adequacy of
disclosures made in the
Standalone Financial Statements
in accordance with the applicable
accounting standards.

(b)

Provision For Warranty ___1

As a part of contractual term, the
company''s management makes
warranty estimation which are
established using historical information
on the nature, frequency and average
cost of warranty claims and also
management estimates regarding
possible future outflow on servicing the
customers for any corrective action in
respect of product failure which is
generally expected to be settled within a
period of 1 to 2 years from the date of

Our audit procedures included the
following;

• Evaluated management''s
assumption and judgement
relating to estimation of warranty
provision considering business
environment in which the
Company operates.

• Obtained an understanding of
the Contract terms to evaluate
the adequacy of the provision
estimated by the management.

warranty terms is recognized as a
provision and is not adjusted against
transaction price as the customer does
not have option to purchase warranty
separately.

Owing to past trend of reversal of
excess provision resulting from high
estimation uncertainty that requires
significant management and auditor
judgement, this matter is considered to
be a key audit matter for the current
vear audit.

Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements and auditors’ report
thereon

The Company’s Board of Directors is 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 auditors’ report thereon. The Annual Report is
expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditors'' 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. 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.

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

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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended. 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 standalone 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, the 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.

Those Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial
reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities 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 auditors'' 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 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 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 Board of Director''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 auditors'' 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 auditors’ 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.

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 Standalone Financial Statements
of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditors’ 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.

• Evaluated management’s assessment of recoverability of the outstanding receivables from MoD including recoverability of overdue/ aged receivables through inquiry with management, and analysis of recent collection trends in respect of receivables particularly aged receivables.

The assessment of whether a liability is recognised as a provision or disclosed as a contingent liability in the Standalone Financial Statements is inherently subjective and requires significant management judgement in determination of the cash outflows from the business, interpretation of applicable laws and regulations, and careful examination of pending assessments at various levels of authorities.

Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements and auditors’ report thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is 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 auditors’ report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditors'' 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. 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.

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

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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended. 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 standalone 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, the 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.

Those Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities 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 auditors’ 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 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 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 Board of Director''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 auditors'' 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 auditors'' 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.

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 Standalone Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors'' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

We are issuing this revised audit report which supersedes our earlier report dated 25.05.2023 with an addition to Emphasis of Matter paragraph concurring to the opinion of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India under Section 143(6)(b) of the Companies Act, 2013.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying standalone Ind AS financial statements of BHARAT DYNAMICS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2023, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and other explanatory information and a summary of the significant accounting policies and Notes to the standalone Ind AS financial statements (hereinafter referred to as "Standalone 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2023, and 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 in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under Section 143 (10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements section of this 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 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. c

Key Audit Matters ("KAM") are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of the most significance in our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

We draw attention to Note 38(25) to the standalone financial statements regarding ifnpact on the company''s operation due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.

We draw attention to Note: 38 (27) regarding the impact on the financials due to change in Accounting Policy on Customer Financed assets.

We draw attention to Note No 38(7) to the standalone financial statements:

The Company holds inventory valued at Rs 8,350.75 lakhs as at 31.03.2023 that was procured for certain orders. These orders were short closed by the customer. The company holds advance from customer of Rs 36,234.42 lakhs relating to such orders. The inventories are nonmoving for more than five years. As per company''s accounting policy redundancy provision is to be recognised for inventory which are non-moving for more than five years. No redundancy provision is recognised for these inventories.

The company contends that the customer has impliedly agreed to take over the inventory against the advance which is sufficient to cover the value of inventory. Hence no loss would be incurred by the company on this account and no redundancy provision is therefore considered necessary. There is no explicit term in the sale contracts to set-off the advance to the value of inventory.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matter.

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

The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company''s Annual Report but does not include the 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 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 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 misstatemenj>-of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to repopf^fo^ this regard. / »/ff

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone 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 Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder.

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 the estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the 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 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibilities 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 mairtM&i^

I *>4—

• 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 controls.

• 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 control 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 management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of Standalone Financial Statements 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.

• 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 financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors (i) in planning the scope of our audit work aryla in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identif/$Ly misstatements in the financial statements. I *A

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 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

1. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order,2020 ("the Order"), issued by the Central Government in terms of sub-section (11) of Section 143 of the Act, we give in Annexure A, a statement on the matters specified in Paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

departments on various issues, received demands, deposited a portion of the demands under protest and has contested against the orders in appropriate forums. In one instance the first appellate authority has decided against the company.

The issues involved are varied. The company has not made any provision for these demands which total to Rs 30,951.31 lakhs crores. All the demands are treated as contingent liabilities.

This is a key audit matter, as evaluation of these matters requires management judgement and estimation, interpretation of laws & regulations and application of relevant judicial precedents to determine whether a provision is required or the same may be disclosed as a contingent liability, and making related disclosures in the financial statements.

significant litigations disclosed in the Standalone Financial Statements;

• We used our expertise to gain an understanding and to evaluate the disputed tax matters;

•We evaluated the orders raising the demands and other communication from regulatory authorities and management responses thereto;

• We evaluated management''s assessments by understanding precedents set in similar cases and assessed the reliability of the management''s past estimates/judgements;

• We evaluated management''s assessment around those matters that are not disclosed or not considered as contingent liability, as the probability of material outflow is considered remote by the management; and

• We assessed the adequacy of the Company''s disclosures.

Based on the above work performed, the assessment in respect of litigations and related disclosures relating to contingent liabilities/other significant litigations in the Standalone Financial Statements is considered reasonable.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note Nos. to the standalone financial statements specified below:

Note No. 38(1): The exceptional item of Rs 3,358.57 lakhs reported in the profit & loss account represents recognition of impairment of a right to use asset and infrastructure created thereon. The right to use was acquired in 2014 for a specific project of Government of India. The project is yet to be finalized. The company''s right is tempered with timelines which the company has not complied. The lessor has exercised its option to repossess the asset due to non-compliance. The company is pursuing with the lessor for extension of timelines. The company has recognised impairment pending such extension.

Note No. 38(7): The company holds unusable inventory of Rs 9,446 lakhs which relates to an order that is since cancelled by the customer. The company holds a customer advance of Rs 36,234.42 lakhs. No provision has been made towards such inventory which is held as a current asset. The company contends that the customer''s advance held is sufficient to cover the value of inventory, so no loss would be incurred by the company on this account and hence no provision is considered necessary.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matters.

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

The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company''s Annual Report but does not include the 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 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 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 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 Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder.

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 the estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the 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 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibilities 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 controls.

• 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 control 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 management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of Standalone Financial Statements 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.

• 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 financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors (i) in 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 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 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

1. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2020 ("the Order"), issued by the Central Government in terms of sub-section (11) of Section 143 of the Act, we give in Annexure A, a statement on the matters specified in Paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

The Annexure referred to in Paragraph 6 (2) (f) of Independent Auditors’ Report to the Members of Bharat Dynamics Limited On the standalone Ind AS financial statements for the year ended on March 31, 2018

Report on the Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting under clause (i) of sub section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013

1. We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Bharat Dynamics Limited (the Company) as at March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

2. Management’s Responsibility:

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal financial control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of 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 Company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

3. 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” (Guidance Note) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143 (10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls. 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 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 material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal financial control based on assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatements, 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 over financial reporting.

4. 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 expenditure of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directions 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 material effect on the financial statements.

5. 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 controls over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

6. Opinion:

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls 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 controls stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India”.

4. 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 (I) 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 expenditure of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations ol management and directions 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 material effect on the financial statements.

5. 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 controls over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

6. Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls 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 controls stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India”. ,
