accounting principles generally accepted in
India; of the state of affairs of the Company
as at 31st March 2025, and its financial

Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the financial
statements 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 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
Companies Act, 2013 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 we
have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion.
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 year ended March 31,2025
(current year). 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 that there are no key
audit matters to communicate in our report.
Information other than the Financial Statements
and Auditors'' Report thereon
The Company''s board of directors are
responsible for the preparation of the
other information. The other information
comprises the Management report, Corporate
information, Chairman''s statement, Director''s
report, etc but does not include the financial
statements and our auditor''s report
thereon. The Management report, Corporate
information, Chairman''s statement, Director''s
report, etc 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 will
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 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.
When we read the Management report,
Corporate information, Chairman''s statement,
Director''s report, etc, if we conclude that there
is a material misstatement therein; we are
required to communicate the matter to those
charged with governance under SA 720 ''The
Auditor''s responsibilities Relating to Other
Information''.
Responsibilities of Management and those
charged with Governance for the Financial
Statements
The Company''s Board of Directors are
responsible for the matters stated in section
134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("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 the maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the
provision of the Act for safeguarding of the
assets of the Company and for preventing and
detecting the 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, the
Board of Directors are 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 the
Board of Directors 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 Responsibility for the Audit of
Financial Statement
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial
statements 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 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 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.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether 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

higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and also for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity''s internal controls.

⢠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.

deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
