Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2025, and the Statement of Profit and
Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Cash
Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended on
that date, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary
of material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according

generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at
31st March 2025, and its profit, total 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 (“SA”s) specified
under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those
Standards are further described in the Auditor''s 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 ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
obtained by us 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 of the current period. 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

Key Audit Matter

Auditor’s Response

1

Revenue recognition for fixed price contracts.

The Company enters into fixed price
contracts with customers. In line with Ind AS
115, revenue in respect of such contracts is
recognized over time under the percentage
completion method, where it is assessed that
the performance obligations are satisfied over
time. Refer Note 4 and 26 of the standalone
financial statements.

Significant judgement and/or estimates
are involved in assessing the timing of
satisfaction of performance obligations under
the aforesaid contracts and the extent of
completion of the performance obligations at
the balance sheet date.

Given the above and its significant impact on
the financial statements, revenue recognition
for fixed price contracts is identified as a Key
Audit Matter.

Principal audit procedures performed included the following:

- Evaluated the Company''s revenue recognition accounting policies and
compliance with applicable accounting standards.

- We have performed walkthrough and obtained detailed understanding of the
Company''s revenue recognition process.

- Evaluated the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of Company''s
internal financial controls with respect to revenue recognition.

- Evaluated the integrity of the general information and technology control
environment and tested the operating effectiveness of IT controls over
recognition of revenue.

- We have analyzed customer contracts on sample basis to identify arrangements
entered by the Company for compliance with Ind AS 115 to evaluate
appropriateness of recognition of revenue.

- We have reviewed the estimation of project costs and the methodology used to
measure progress towards project completion.

- We have performed substantive testing by selecting samples of revenue
recorded during the year and verifying the underlying documents which include
sales invoice, customer contracts, delivery documents.

- Evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures related to revenue recognition and
significant estimates in the standalone financial statements.

prior to the date of this auditor''s report, and the Annual report,
which is expected to be made available to us after that date.

• Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not
cover the other information and will 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 on the other
information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor''s
report, 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.

• 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 as required
under SA 720 ‘The Auditor''s responsibilities Relating to

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors 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 Ind AS 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 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 standalone financial statements, management and
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 intend to
liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

The Company''s Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing
the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility 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 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 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 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 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 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 standalone 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.

1. As required by Section 143(3) of the Act, based on our audit
we report, that:

Auditor''s Responsibility 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 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.

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 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 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.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the Company and its branches to express an opinion on the standalone financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the standalone financial statements of which we are the independent auditors. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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 financial controls that we identify during our audit.
