We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of Om Infra Limited (âthe Companyâ), which includes its
9 Joint Operations, which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2025, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including
Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Cash Flow and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended 31
March, 2025, and notes to the Standalone Financial Statements including a summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information. Companyâs Financial statements includes financial statements of 9 Joint Operations audited by
other auditors, report of which have been furnished to us. Our opinion, in so far as it relates to the affairs of such Segment is
based solely on the report of other auditors.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and based on the
considerations of the other auditor''s on separate financial statements of Joint Operations referred to in "Other matters" section
below , the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ( "the act") 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, (âInd ASâ) and other
accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and the profit,
and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows 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) specified
under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditorâs
Responsibility 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
ICAIâs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors
in terms of their reports referred to in the "Other Matters" section below, 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 year ended on 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 not provide a separate
opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in

Emphasis of Matter
1 Company''s creditors have not submitted their status regarding classification as Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME)
under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act, 2006. Under the MSMED Act, the company is
required to provide for interest on delayed payments to MSME creditors. Due to the lack of information on the classification of
these creditors, the company has not been able to make the necessary interest provisions. This omission could have financial
and legal implications, including potential non-compliance with the Act. We did not modify our opinion on the same.
2 The Company has not obtained Work Completion Certificates for the majority of its project sites. In the absence of such
documentation, we are unable to comment on the completion status of these projects. Our opinion is not modified in respect of
this matter.
3 The Company has not obtained balance confirmations from debtors and creditors. Consequently, we are unable to
independently verify the accuracy of the outstanding balances as at the balance sheet date. However, we have reviewed the
underlying invoices and corresponding payment records, and based on our audit procedures, we are satisfied with the
recoverability and payability of such balances. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
4 As stated in Note no. 55(a) to the financial statements, The Company''s non-current investments as at 31 March 2025 include
investments aggregating Rs 5589.70 Lacs and advances amounting to Rs 6024 Lacs (Previous Year: Rs. 6492.80 Lacs) in its
subsidiary, Bhilwara Jaipur Toll Road Private Limited. These investments and advances are considered good and recoverable
by the management.
The Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) has filed for termination with the respective authority and claimed the amount invested
along with termination payments as per the concession agreement, amounting to Rs. 61,200.00 Lakhs. The arbitrator has
awarded Rs. 77,943.00 Lakhs in favour of the SPV. Out of this awarded amount, the SPV has received Rs. 25,054.00 Lakhs to
comply with the commercial court''s order. This amount has been used to repay loans and cover other expenses. Amount
Received from PWD is treated as current liability in Financial statements of SPV.
However, neither the arbitration award nor the amount received from the government has been accounted for in the SPV''s
financial statements as of the balance sheet date. This is because the Public Works Department (PWD) has challenged the
arbitrator''s award in an appeal to the High Court. Given the ongoing legal proceedings, the recognition of this amount in the
financial statements has been deferred until there is a final resolution of the case. Our opinion is not modified in respect of the
same.
5 As Stated note no. 55(b) to the financial statements, The Company''s non-current investments as at 31 March 2025 include
investments aggregating Rs 2.50 Lacs and advances amounting to Rs 784.43 Lacs (Previous Year: Rs. 748.14 Lacs) in its Joint
Venture, Gurha Thermal Power Company Limited. These investments and advances are considered good and recoverable by
the management.
The Joint Venture has filed for termination with the respective authority (DISCOMS) and has claimed the amount invested
along with termination payments. Initially, the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission (RERC) dismissed the claim.
Subsequently, the Joint Venture preferred an appeal before the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL).
APTEL ruled in favour of the Joint Venture, awarding a total of Rs. 5,390.92 Lakhs, inclusive of interest. However, this verdict
has not been accounted for in the Joint Venture''s financial statements as of the balance sheet date. The decision has not been
recognized in the financial statements due to an appeal filed against the APTEL''s verdict in the Honourable Supreme Court. As
the final outcome remains uncertain, the Joint Venture has deferred the recognition of the awarded amount in its financial
records. Our opinion is not modified in respect of the same.
Other Matter
(i) As per Annexure C which is seprately attached to this report, The Company has prepared a separate set of statutory financial
statements for nine joint operations for the year ended 31 March 2025 in accordance with IND AS. These financial statements
have been audited by other auditors under generally accepted auditing standards applicable in India. We did not separately
audit these financial statements of joint operations included in the standalone financial results, whose financial statements
reflect total assets of Rs. 15970.44 Lacs as at 31 March 2025, total income of Rs. 28659.69 Lacs, and net profit after tax of Rs.
1402.53 Lacs for the year ended on that date, as considered in these standalone financial results. Our opinion, insofar as it
relates to the amounts and disclosures included for these joint operations, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors
and the conversion adjustments prepared by the management of the Company, which have been audited by us. Our opinion is
not qualified in respect of this matter.
(ii) As stated in note no. 63 to the financial statements, The Company made claims against customer/parties/subsidiaries/Joint
ventures which represents work done in earlier years or loss of interest or any other matter which are either in dispute or yet
to be finalized by both the parties amounting to Rs. 58116.80 Lacs (P.Y. Rs. 55719.44 lacs) net off counter claims of Rs.
1521.02 lacs (P.y. Rs. 1805.74 lacs). Outcome of such claims are presently unascertainable. No adjustment has been made in
the standalone financial statements. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.
Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report Thereon
The Companyâs 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, Boardâs Report including Annexure to Boardâs Report,
Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholderâs Information, 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 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.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Companyâs Management and the Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these
standalone annual financial statements that give a true and fair view of the net profit/ loss and other comprehensive income
and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and
in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations.
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 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 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 Company uses an accounting software for maintaining its books of account which has a feature of recording audit trail
(edit log) facility and the same has operated throughout the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the accounting
software.
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 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 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 conditionsthat 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 Annual 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 (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
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 controls with reference to financial
statements 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.

Emphasis of Matter
1 Company''s creditors have not submitted their status regarding classification as Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act, 2006. Under the MSMED Act, the company is required to provide for interest on delayed payments to MSME creditors. Due to the lack of information on the classification of these creditors, the company has not been able to make the necessary interest provisions. This omission could have financial and legal implications, including potential non-compliance with the Act. We did not modify our opinion on the same.
2 As stated in Note no. 57(a) to the financial statements, The Company''s non-current investments as at 31 March 2024 include investments aggregating Rs. 5589.70 Lacs and advances amounting to Rs. 6492.81 Lacs (Previous Year: Rs. 9757.72 Lacs) in its subsidiary, Bhilwara Jaipur Toll Road Private Limited. These investments and advances are considered good and recoverable by the management.
The Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) has filed for termination with the respective authority and claimed the amount invested along with termination payments as per the concession agreement, amounting to Rs. 61,200.00 Lakhs. The arbitrator has awarded Rs. 77,943.00 Lakhs in favor of the SPV. Out of this awarded amount, the SPV has received Rs. 25,054.00 Lakhs to comply with the commercial court''s order. This amount has been used to repay loans and cover other expenses. Amount Received from PWD is treated as current liability in Financial statements of SPV.
However, neither the arbitration award nor the amount received from the government has been accounted for in the SPV''s financial statements as of the balance sheet date. This is because the Public Works Department (PWD) has challenged the arbitrator''s award in an appeal to the High Court. Given the ongoing legal proceedings, the recognition of this amount in the financial statements has been deferred until there is a final resolution of the case.
3 As Stated point no. 57(b) to the financial statements, The Company''s non-current investments as at 31 March 2024 include investments aggregating Rs. 2.50 Lacs and advances amounting to Rs. 748.14 Lacs (Previous Year: Rs. 747.98 Lacs) in its Joint Venture, Gurha Thermal Power Company Limited. These investments and advances are considered good and recoverable by the management.
The Joint Venture has filed for termination with the respective authority (DISCOMS) and has claimed the amount invested along with termination payments. Initially, the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission (RERC) dismissed the claim. Subsequently, the Joint Venture preferred an appeal before the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL).
APTEL ruled in favor of the Joint Venture, awarding a total of Rs. 5,390.92 Lakhs, inclusive of interest. However, this verdict has not been accounted for in the Joint Venture''s financial statements as of the balance sheet date. The decision has not been recognized in the financial statements due to the possibility of an appeal being filed against the APTEL''s verdict in the Honorable Supreme Court. As the final outcome remains uncertain, the Joint Venture has deferred the recognition of the awarded amount in its financial records.
4 Company''s Joint Venture Om Metals SPML Joint Venture Rwanda''s Statotory Auditor L S Kumar & Associates, reported that RSSB & TPR Rwanda Taxes outstanding on 31.03.2024 are not paid since one year. As per Management the payment is in process.

Real Estate Revenue from sale of constructed properties is recognised at a ''Point of Time'', when the Company satisfies the performance obligations, which generally coincides with completion/possession of the unit. Recognition of revenue at a point in time based on satisfaction of performance obligation requires estimates and judgements regarding timing of satisfaction of performance obligation, allocation of cost incurred to segment/units and the estimated cost for completion of some final pending works. Due to judgement and estimates involved, revenue recognition is considered as key audit matter. |
Real Estate Our audit procedures on revenue recognition included the following: ⢠We verified performance obligations satisfied by the Company; ⢠We tested flat buyer agreements/sale deeds, occupancy certificates (OC), project completion, possession letters, sale proceeds received from customers to test transfer of controls; ⢠We conducted site visits during the year to understand status of the project and its construction status; ⢠We verified calculation of revenue to be recognised and matching of related cost; ⢠We verified allocation of common cost to units sold and estimates of cost yet to be incurred before final possession of units. |

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 Management and the Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these standalone annual financial statements that give a true and fair view of the net profit/ loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations.
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 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.
The Company uses an accounting software for maintaining its books of account which has a feature of recording audit trail (edit log) facility and the same has operated throughout the year for all relevant transactions recorded in the accounting software.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
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 annual financial statements.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Annual 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 (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 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.

No Interest has been provided by the company on advances granted to joint venture for four years.

Annexure B
Independent Auditor''s report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"). In preparing the report, we have considered the report made under the aforesaid order by other auditors, who have audited the Financial Statements of the Divisions of Engg. , Real estate,Packaging and Hotel etc. of the Company we report that:
1. In conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of Om Metals Infraprojects Limited. ("the Company") as of and for the year ended 31 March 2018, we have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting (IFCoFR) of the company of as of that date.
Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
2. The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Control Over Financial Reporting (the ''Guidance Note'') issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). 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 the company''s business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Act.
Auditors'' Responsibility
3. 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 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.
4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the IFCoFR and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of IFCoFR included obtaining an understanding of IFCoFR, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
5. 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 IFCoFR.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
6. A company''s IFCoFR 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 IFCoFR 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 expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
7. Because of the inherent limitations of IFCoFR, 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 IFCoFR to future periods are subject to the risk that IFCoFR may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
8. In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31 March 2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Control Over Financial Reporting (the ''Guidance Note'') issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).
