(SAs), as specified under section 143(10) of the Act.
Our responsibilities under those Standards are further

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 together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the 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 audit opinion on the
Financial Statements.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note no. 15 to the Financial
Statement, on the basis of legal opinion the Company has
not accounted for some of the Government subsidies as
mentioned in the said note. Our opinion is not modified in
respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of the Financial Statements for the financial year
ended March 31, 2025. These matters were addressed
in the context of our audit of the 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

to these matters.

Accordingly, our audit included the performance of

of the risks of material misstatement of the Financial
Statements. The results of our audit procedures, including
the procedures performed to address the matters below,

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 Company’s annual report, but does
not include the Financial Statements and our auditor’s report
thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available
to us after the date of this Auditors’ 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 in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. When we read 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
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
including other comprehensive income, cash flows and
changes in equity 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 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 financial statements, management and Board
of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,
matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless Management either

intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or
has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

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 these
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 control relevant to
the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)
(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing
our opinion on whether the Company has adequate
internal financial controls with reference to Financial
Statements in place and the operating effectiveness
of such controls.

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

• Conclude on the appropriateness of 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 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 Financial Statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the 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 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.

Other Matter

We did not audit the financial statements of one branch
located at Singapore included in the financial statements of
the Company, whose financial statements reflect total assets
(before consolidation adjustment) of
'' 1,317 lakhs as at
31st March 2025 and the total revenue from operation (before
consolidation adjustment) of
'' Nil and total comprehensive
loss (before consolidation adjustment) of
'' 883 lakhs for
the year ended March 31, 2025 have been audited by the
branch auditor whose report have been furnished to us,
and our opinion in so far as it relates to the amounts and
disclosures included in respect of branch, is based solely on
the report of such branch auditor. Our opinion is not modified
in respect of these matters.

We draw attention to Note no: 15 to the Standalone Financial Statement, on the basis of legal opinion the Company has not accounted for some of the Government subsidies as mentioned in the said note. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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 31,2023. 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 auditor’s 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 to 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 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 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 and, in doing so, consider whether the other information

is materially inconsistent with the Standalone Financial Statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When we read 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 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, cash flows and changes in equity 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 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, 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.

Those Board of Directors are also 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 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 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 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 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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2023, 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.
