We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of BLUE PEBBLE LIMITED (âthe Companyâ),
which comprise the balance sheet as at 31st March 2025, and the statement of Profit and Loss, and statement of
cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as âthe standalone financial

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid
financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 in the manner so required and give a
true and fair view in conformity with the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with
Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014, Companies (Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules 2016 and
other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025,
and its profit, 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
Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s
Responsibilities for the Audit ofthe 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 Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAIâs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of
the Standalone Financial Statements for the financial year ended March 31, 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. 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. We
have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditorsâ responsibilities for the audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the
performance of procedures designed to respond our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
Standalone Financial Statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to
address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying Standalone Financial
Statements.
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report Thereon.
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Boardâs report including Annexure to Boardâs but does not include the Standalone
Financial Statements and our auditorâs report thereon.
Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Standalone
Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained 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.
Responsibility of Management for Standalone Financial Statements
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013
(âthe Actâ) with respect to the preparation of these Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of
the financial position, financial performance, 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 accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that
are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,
that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to
the preparation and presentation of the financial statement 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 is responsible for assessing the Companyâs ability
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or
has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the companyâs financial reporting process.
Auditorâs 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 auditorâs report that includes
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from
fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and
⢠obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud
may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for
expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system 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 managementâs 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 Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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 auditorâs report. However, future events or
conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Financial Statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone
Financial Statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning
the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified
misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal 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 auditorâs 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
As required by the Companies (Auditorâs Report) Order, 2020 (âthe Orderâ), issued by the Central Government of
India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013, we give in the.

("Ultimate Beneficiariesâ) or provide any guarantee, security or the like on behalf of the Ultimate
Beneficiaries;

(c) Based on the audit procedures that have been considered reasonable and appropriate in the
circumstances, nothing has come to our notice that has caused us to believe that the representations

misstatement.
v. The company has neither proposed any dividend in the previous year nor in the current year not paid
any interim dividend during the year.
vi. Based on our examination which included test checks, the Company has used an accounting software

software for which audit trail feature is enabled, the audit trail facility has been operating throughout
the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the software and we did not come across any
instance of audit trail feature being tampered with during the course of our audit.
