Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matters

Revenue Recognition (Refer Note 1.3.10 and 26 to the Standalone Financial Statements)

The Company recognizes revenue from fixed price
software development and service contracts over time
using the percentage of completion method based on
costs incurred relative to estimated total contract costs.
Recognition of revenue under such contracts involves
significant management judgement, particularly in
estimating total efforts/costs required to complete
contracts and assessing stage of completion. Changes in
these estimates could materially impact the amount and
timing of revenue recognized.

Accordingly, revenue recognition for fixed price contracts
was considered to be a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, amongst others:

• evaluating the design and testing the operating effectiveness of key
controls over monitoring of project progress and revenue recognition;

• assessing the Company’s accounting policy for compliance with
applicable accounting standards;

• testing, on a sample basis, underlying customer contracts and key
contractual terms;

• evaluating management’s estimates of total contract costs and
stage of completion for selected contracts;

• verifying costs incurred with supporting documentation on a sample
basis;

•

testing the mathematical accuracy of revenue recognized under the
percentage of completion method; and

•

assessing the adequacy of related disclosures in the financial
statements.

We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial
Statements of Network People Services Technologies
Limited ("the Company”), which comprise the Balance
Sheet as at March 31, 2026, the Statement of Profit and
Loss, including the Statement of Other Comprehensive
Income, the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of
Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes
to the Standalone Financial Statements, including a
summary of material accounting policies and other
explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "the
Standalone Financial Statements”).

In our opinion and to the best of our information and
according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid
Standalone 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, 2026, its profit including other
comprehensive income, its cash flows and the changes in
equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (SAs), as 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 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 audit opinion on the
Standalone Financial Statements.

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, 2026. 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.

Information Other than the Standalone
Financial Statements and Auditor’s
Report Thereon

The Company’s management and 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 Board’s Report 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, when 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.

Responsibilities of Management and
those charged with Governance for the
Standalone Financial Statements

The Company’s management and Board of Directors are
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) specified 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 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 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

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 charged with governance 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 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 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, 2026 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 Matters

The standalone financial statements for the year ended
March 31, 2025 were audited by erstwhile Statutory Audit
M/s Keyur Shah & Co., Chartered Accountants, who had
issued unmodified opinion vide their report dated May 27,
2025. Accordingly, we do not express any opinion on the
figures reported in the Statement for the corresponding
year ended March 31, 2025.

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
31st 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

The key audit matter

How the matter was address in our audit

First time adoption of Ind AS framework

As disclosed in Note 47 to the accompanying Financial
Statements, the Company has adopted Indian Accounting
Standards notified under section 133 of the Act, read
together with the Companies (Indian Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended) ("Ind AS") with effect
from 01st April, 2024 (01st April, 2023 being the transition
date) and prepared the first set of Financial Statements
under Ind AS framework in the current year.

This change in the financial reporting framework required
an evaluation of the potential impact on the components
of the financial statement. This process also required the
management to apply significant judgments to identify and
elect appropriate accounting policies suitable for various
transactions and balances relating to the operations of
the Company including electing of available options for
transition of balances as at transition date to the Ind AS
framework.

We obtained adequate and appropriate audit evidences by
performing additional procedure which included, but not limited
to, the following:

• Obtained an understanding of management’s processes and
controls around adoption of Ind AS. We sought explanations
from the management for areas involving complex
judgments or interpretations to assess its appropriateness.

• Examined the implementation of exemptions availed and
options chosen by the Company in accordance with the
requirements of Ind AS 101, First Time Adoption of Indian
Accounting Standards (Ind AS 101).

• Examined the accounting policies adopted by the Company
on transition to Ind AS and assessed its appropriateness on
basis of our understanding of the entity and its operations
and the requirements of relevant accounting standards
under the Ind AS framework.

• Examined whether the presentation and disclosures in the
financial statements are in accordance with the requirements
of the applicable standards and regulatory requirements.

The key audit matter

How the matter was address in our audit

Considering the significance of the transition, the
complexities and the efforts involved, this matter has been
determined as a key audit matter for the year under audit.

• Examined the appropriateness and adequacy of disclosures

the management in the financial statements in accordance
with Ind AS 101.

Information Other than the financial statements and
Auditor''s report thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the
preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Management
Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including
Annexures to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility
Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s
Information, but does not include the standalone financial
statements and our auditor''s 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 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

Responsibility of Management for 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 Ind AS and other 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

standalone financial statement that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due to

In preparing the standalone financial statements,
management is responsible for assessing the Company''s
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as

the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board

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.

Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial standalone 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 Companies Act, 2013, we are also
responsible for expressing our opinion on whether
the company has adequate internal financial controls
system 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 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 for the year ended 31st March, 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.

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 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 together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the 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 Code of Ethics.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial standalone statement for the financial year ended 31st March, ''24. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial standalone statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Information Other than the financial statements and Auditor''s report thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures

to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s 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 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.

Responsibility of Management for 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 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 standalone 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 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.

Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial standalone 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 standalone 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 standalone 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 Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system 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 standalone 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 period ended 31st March, ''24 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.
