state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,2025, and
its profit ( including other comprehensive income), changes

2. Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial
statements in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (“SA”s) 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 made thereunder, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these
requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe
that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the
standalone financial statements.

3. 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 of 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. We have
determined the matter described below to be the Key audit
matter that to be communicate in our report.

S. No.	Key Audit Matters	Auditor’s Response
1.	Revenue recognition Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized at the moment when control has been transferred to the customer and is measured net of trade discounts, rebates and pricing allowances to customers. The timing of revenue recognition is relevant to the reported performance of the Company. Revenue recognition has been identified as a key audit matter as there could be incentives or external pressures to meet expectations resulting in revenue being recognized before control has been transferred. (Refer note no. 4.11 and 35 of the Standalone Financial Statements.	Our audit procedure involves the following activities: • We assessed the appropriateness of the revenue recognition accounting policies by comparing with applicable accounting standards • We tested on a sample basis, key customer contracts to identify terms and conditions relating to transfer of control. • We performed substantive testing by selecting samples of revenue transactions recorded during the year by testing the underlying documents which included invoices, good dispatch notes, customer acceptances and shipping documents (as applicable). • We carried out analytical procedures on revenue recognised during the year to identify unusual variances. • We tested, on a sample basis, specific revenue transactions recorded closer to the year end and after the financial year end date to determine whether the revenue had been recognised in the appropriate period.

S. No.	Key Audit Matters	Auditor’s Response
2.	Recoverability relating to Goods and Services Tax recoverable: As at March 31, 2025, under other current assets, indirect taxes recoverable include H 4,857.54 Lakhs in respect of GST Input Tax credit receivable. The Company has accounted for input tax credit on material and services received from suppliers and is carrying out continuous process of reconciliation. We focused on management’s estimate of getting input tax credit which involves significant reconciliation. Refer Note 23 to the Standalone Financial Statements.	Our audit procedure involves the following activities: • Assessing and updating our understanding of internal control over financial reporting with respect to recording of invoices of suppliers • Reviewing the management continuing process for reconciliation, updation and follow up with the vendors. We have relied upon the management’s assessment.
3.	Allowance of trade receivables / Credit Losses: The company has a concentration of credit exposure on a number of major customers, mainly Government and large organization. The Trade receivables is a significant item in the Company’s standalone financial statements amounting to H 27,062.95 Lakhs as of March 31, 2025, and provisions for impairment of receivables is an area which is influenced by management’s estimates and judgment. The provision for impairment of receivables amounted to H 211.17 Lakhs as at March 31,2025. Refer Note 12 and 17 to the Standalone Financial Statements. As detailed in note no. 57 of the standalone financial statements, the management reviews and assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of all overdue trade receivables individually by considering the credit history including default or delay in payments, settlement records and subsequent settlements.	Our audit procedures involve the following activities: • Understanding how provision for impairment of receivables is estimated by the management; • Testing the subsequent settlements of trade receivables, on a sample basis, to the source documents including bank statements. • Discussing with the management and evaluating the basis of trade receivables that are overdue and without / with little settlements subsequent to the end of the reporting period identified by the management and their assessment on the recoverability of overdue trade receivables. • Computation of the allowance for expected credit losses

4. Information Other than the Standalone 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 annual Report but does
not include the standalone financial statements and our
auditor’s report thereon. The other information comprising
the above documents 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
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the standalone 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
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, total comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in
accordance with the Ind AS 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 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 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 is responsible for assessing the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the
going concern basis of accounting unless management
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

6. 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 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 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 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.

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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2025
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 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 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2023, and its profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash Hows for the year ended on that date.

2.    Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (ISA's) 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 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 financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the financial statements.

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Board's Report including Annexure to Board's Report and Shareholder's Information, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The other information comprising the above documents is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the 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 Financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the 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.

4.    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 Act with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS 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 the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgmentsand 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 ot the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternat ive but to do so.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

5.    Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 t hese 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 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)0) 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 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. I f we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, ifsueh 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the 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 in 0) 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 cont rol 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 t:o bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
