We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of Meson Valves India Limited
(“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, and the Statement of Profit
and Loss and Statement of Cash Flows for the year the ended, and notes to the financial statements,
including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information. (hereinafter
referred to as ‘financial statement’).

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 (‘Act’) in the
manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally
accepted in India including Accounting Standards (‘AS’) specified under section 133 of the Act, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, its profit and cash flows for the year ended on that
date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards on auditing 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 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 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 financial statement.

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 of the current period. 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.

We have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our
report.

Revenue from Sale of Products (Refer Note No. 1(l) and 22 to the financial statement)

Key Audit Matter

How our audit addressed the key audit
matter

Revenue Recognition

The company generates revenue from the
sale, assembly, distribution, and servicing
of valves, actuators, strainers, and related
products to industries such as naval, oil and
gas, power, and refineries, both
domestically and internationally. Revenue
is recognized when control of goods
transfers to the buyer, typically at dispatch
or delivery.

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
overstated or recognized before the control
has been transferred.

In view of the significance of the matter we applied
the following audit procedures in this area, to
obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence:

• We assessed the appropriateness of the
Company''s accounting policies for revenue
recognition by comparing them with applicable
accounting standards.

• We evaluated the design, implementation and
operating effectiveness of key internal controls
over recognition of revenue.

• On a sample basis, we tested the revenue
transactions recorded during the year by verifying
the underlying documents to assess whether
revenue is recognized appropriately when control
is transferred.

• We tested, on a sample basis, specific revenue
transaction recorded before and after the financial
year-end date to assess whether revenue is
recognized in the correct financial period in which
control is transferred.

• We scrutinized journal entries related to revenue
recognized during the year based upon specified
risk-based criteria, to identify unusual or irregular
items.

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 the 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 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
identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether such 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 the annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are
required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and shall comply with the relevant
applicable requirements of the Standard on Auditing for the Auditor’s Responsibility in relation to Other
Information in documents containing the audited standalone financial statements.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

The accompanying financial statements have been approved by the Company''s Board of Directors. 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 and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of
the Act.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the
provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting
frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making
judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial
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 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 financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole is
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 Standards on Auditing will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or
in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken based
on 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 financial 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.

• Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in the
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 (i) planning the scope of our audit work in evaluating the results of our work, and (ii)
evaluating 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 financial controls 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 of the current period 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

The audit of standalone financial results for the year ended 31st March 2024, included in the Statement
was carried out and reported by PSV Jain & Associates who have expressed unmodified conclusion vide
their report dated 20th May 2024, whose reports have been furnished to us and which have been relied
