and the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Standalone Cash Flow

India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2025, 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)
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 standalone 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 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 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
our report.

Key Audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter:

Assessment of carrying value of equity investments in subsidiaries and fair value of other investments (Refer to Note 7 - "Non-Current Investments" and Refer to Note 2.4(N) - accounting policies on Financial Assets) The Company holds investments in three subsidiaries (measured at amortised cost) and also in quoted equity shares of other companies (measured at fair value through Other Comprehensive Income). All such non-current investments except investment in subsidiaries have been pledged as security against long-term and short-term borrowings (refer Notes 19 and 23) For equity investments in subsidiaries, the Company performs periodic impairment assessments, while other investments are fair valued at each reporting date in accordance with Ind AS 109. The accounting for investments is a Key Audit Matter as the assessment of recoverable values for impairment testing of subsidiary investments and the determination of fair value for other equity investments involves significant judgement, including assumptions around forecast cash flows, market conditions, discount rates, and valuation models.

Our audit procedures included the following: ¦ Obtained an understanding from the management, assessed and tested the design and operating effectiveness of the Company''s key controls over the impairment assessment and fair valuation of material investments. ¦ Evaluated the Company''s process regarding impairment assessment and fair valuation including review of future projections, business performance, and related assumptions. We noted that no impairment was required based on these assessments. ¦ Assessed the carrying value/fair value calculations of all individually material investments, where applicable, to determine whether the valuations performed by the Company were within an acceptable range determined by us. ¦ Evaluated the cash flow forecasts (with underlying economic growth rate) by comparing them to the approved budgets and our understanding of the internal and external factors. ¦ Checked the mathematical accuracy of the impairment model and agreed the relevant data on sample basis with the latest budgets, actual past results and other supporting documents. ¦ Evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures made in the Standalone Financial Statements. Based on the above procedures performed, we did not identify any significant exceptions in the management''s assessment in relation to the carrying value of equity investments in subsidiary and fair value of other investments.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditors'' Report Thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for 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
consolidated financial statements, standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The Company''s
annual 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
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.

When we read the Company''s 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 take necessary actions, as applicable
under the relevant laws and regulations.

Management''s Responsibility for the 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 true and fair
view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes
of equity of the company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the
Indian 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 IND AS 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 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 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 IND AS 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 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 IND AS 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 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.

> Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the standalone financial information of business activities
within the company to express an opinion on the standalone financial statements. We are responsible for the
direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the standalone financial statements of such entities.

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.

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 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.

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

Kev Audit matter

How our audit addressed the kev audit matter:

Existence and valuation of inventory The Company has an inventory balance of ? 26,613.11 lakhs as at 31 March 2024, as disclosed in note 10 of the accompanying standalone financial statements. Refer note 2.4(F) for the corresponding accounting policy adopted by the management with respect to the inventory balance. The Company purchases gold from nominated agencies prescribed by Banks and other customers. - With respect to existence of inventory as at year end, there is an inherent risk of loss from theft or possible malafide intent, due to the high intrinsic value and portable nature of individual inventory items. In addition to the physical verification performed by the management with the help of an independent professional gemologist, the lenders of the Company also conduct stock counts with the help of their appointed independent gemologists. Considering the complexities involved, portable nature of inventory, high inherent risk and high level of estimation uncertainty involved in valuation of the inventory, the existence and valuation of inventory has been determined as key audit matter for the current year audit

Our audit work in relation to the existence and valuation of inventory included, but was not limited to, performing the following procedures: > Obtained an understanding of the management''s process for physical verification, recognition and measurement of purchase cost of gold, diamonds and manufactured jewellery items. > Evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls implemented by the Company with respect to such process including controls around safeguarding the high value inventory items. > Assessed the appropriateness of accounting policy and management valuation methodology adopted by the management. > On a sample basis, tested invoices and other underlying records and subsequent sales invoices to validate the costs, valuation and characteristics basis which the inventory is categorized for inventory management and valuation. > Obtained the management physical verification records and inventory reconciliation performed by the management as at the year end. > Obtained the category-wise inventory reconciliation from the management and tested the same on sample basis. > On a sample basis, tested samples of inventory sold before year-end and subsequent to year-end to corroborate management''s assessment of net realizable value of closing inventory balance. > Evaluated disclosures made in the accompanying financial statements for appropriateness and adequacy in accordance with the requirements of the Indian accounting standards.

Kev Audit matter

How our audit addressed the kev audit matter:

Capital Expenditure The company has incurred capital expenditure towards purchase / construction of tangible property, plant and equipment amounting to Rs. 2,178.42 Lakh during the financial year. Considering that this amount is substantial and errors in measurement can lead to material impact on carrying amount of tangible fixed assets as well as profit for the year we have considered this as a key audit matter.

> Obtained an understanding of management''s process and evaluated design and tested operating effectiveness of controls around measurement of capital expenditure. > Assessment of deviations from budgeted expenditure, if any and enquiry into reasons thereof. > We undertook substantive audit procedures to test whether any revenue expenditure is classified as capital expenditure or capital expenditure is classified as revenue expenditure. > We tested the adherence to Ind AS 16 "Property, Plant & Equipment" to verify accuracy of measurement of expenditure and adequacy of disclosures made.

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 Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules 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 financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key Audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter:

Existence and valuation of inventory The Company has an inventory balance of '' 8,522.52 lakhs as at 31 March 2023, as disclosed in note 10 of the accompanying standalone financial statements. Refer note 2.4(F) for the corresponding accounting policy adopted by the management with respect to the inventory balance. The Company purchases gold from nominated agencies prescribed by Banks and other customers. -With respect to existence of inventory as at year end, there is an inherent risk of loss from theft or possible malafide intent, due to the high intrinsic value and portable nature of individual inventory items. In addition to the physical verification performed by the management with the help of an independent professional gemologist, the lenders of the Company also conduct stock counts with the help of their appointed independent gemologists. Considering the complexities involved, portable nature of inventory, high inherent risk and high level of estimation uncertainty involved in valuation of the inventory, the existence and valuation of inventory has been determined as key audit matter for the current year audit

Our audit work in relation to the existence and valuation of inventory included, but was not limited to, performing the following procedures: > Obtained an understanding of the management''s process for physical verification, recognition and measurement of purchase cost of gold, diamonds and manufactured jewellery items. > Evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls implemented by the Company with respect to such process including controls around safeguarding the high value inventory items. > Assessed the appropriateness of accounting policy and management valuation methodology adopted by the management. > On a sample basis, tested invoices and other underlying records and subsequent sales invoices to validate the costs, valuation and characteristics basis which the inventory is categorized for inventory management and valuation. > Obtained the management physical verification records and inventory reconciliation performed by the management as at the year end. > Obtained the category-wise inventory reconciliation from the management and tested the same on sample basis. > On a sample basis, tested samples of inventory sold before year-end and subsequent to year-end to corroborate management''s assessment of net realizable value of closing inventory balance. > Evaluated disclosures made in the accompanying financial statements for appropriateness and adequacy in accordance with the requirements of the Indian accounting standards.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors’ Report Thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for 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 consolidated financial statements, standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon. 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 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 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.

Management’s Responsibility for the 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 true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes of equity of the company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian 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 IND AS 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 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 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 IND AS 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 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 IND AS 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 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 standalone financial statements that, individually or in 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 and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate 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 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 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.

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements Opinion

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of SKY GOLD LIMITED (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2022 and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as “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 Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31^st March 2022, and its profit and its 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 Act. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Company''s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company''s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

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