and notes to financial statements including summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory informa¬
tion (hereinafter referred to as ''Standalone Financial

In our opinion and to the best of our information and accord¬
ing to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone
financial statements give the information required by the
Companies Act, 2013, as amended (''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 March 31,2025, its profit
including, its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Compa¬
nies 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 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 there under, 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 standalone AS financial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional
judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the
standalone AS Financial statements for the year ended March
31 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our
audit of the Standalone AS financial statements as a whole,
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a
separate opinion on these matters.

3. Issue of Equity Shares on Initial public offering of Rs. 2,999.38 Lakhs
(refer Note 35 to financial statements for disclosure pertaining to fresh issue and utilization)
2. Recoverability of Trade Receivables
(See Note 2.1(VIII) and 16 to standalone AS financial statements)
The Company''s trade receivables represent a material
portion of the balance sheet. Given the nature of its
businessâproviding IT-enabled cybersecurity servicesâcol¬
lection cycles can vary significantly depending on service
delivery milestones, contract terms, and client acceptance
procedures. A significant portion of these receivables
pertains to government and large enterprise clients where
delays in collection are common.
There is inherent judgment involved in assessing the
recoverability of outstanding balances, especially in light of
aged receivables, possible disputes, or lack of firm contractu¬
al evidence of delivery/acceptance. The risk of misstatement
arises if provisions for doubtful debts are not appropriately
recognized.
During the year, the Company has issued equity shares on a
Initial public offering to Public. The total amount raised and
the accounting treatment involves complex regulatory, legal,
and accounting considerations under applicable laws
including the Companies Act, 2013, SEBI (ICDR) Regulations,
and generally accepted accounting principles.
We considered this a key audit matter due to:
⢠The materiality of the transaction in the context of the
Company''s financial position;
⢠The significant judgment involved in determining the fair
value of warrants and shares;
⢠Compliance requirements related to pricing guidelines,
allotment timelines, lock-in periods, and disclosure norms;
and
⢠The impact on share capital, securities premium, and
earnings per share.
Our procedures included:
Evaluating the Company''s revenue recognition and
receivables collection policies;
Testing aging reports and reconciling them with underlying
accounting records;
Reviewing material contracts and delivery evidence to assess
the validity of the receivables;
Inquiring with management about long-pending balances and
assessing their responses;
Verifying subsequent collections and obtaining direct balance
confirmations from major customers;
Assessing the adequacy of provisioning policies in light of
historical collection trends and management estimates.
We found that the management''s assessment of recoverabili¬
ty of trade receivables and related disclosures were, in all
material respects, consistent with the underlying documenta¬
tion and the applicable accounting framework as per
generally accepted accounting principles in India.
Our audit procedures included, among others:
⢠Obtained and reviewed the resolutions of the Board of
Directors and shareholders for issuance of equity shares
on Initial public offer basis.
⢠Verified compliance with relevant provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013 and SEBI (ICDR) Regulations, including
eligibility criteria, pricing, and disclosure requirements;
⢠Evaluated the accounting treatment adopted by the
management with reference to applicable AS along with
Issue expense incurred of Rs. 427.58 Lakhs adjusted
against security premium;
⢠Verified the receipt of consideration against equity shares
with bank statement of Special account opened by the
company for the purpose of issue;
⢠Assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of related
disclosures in the financial statements.
⢠We have checked PAS-03 filed by the company with ROC
dated 04th May, 2024.
⢠Verified the utilization made by the company after
transferring the funds from special bank account to its
Fixed Deposit of proceeds received from issue of equity
shares in accordance with Object of the issue approved
as per final prospectus dated 04th April, 2024. Amount
spent by Company from its special account and withdrawal
of Fixed deposit is considered on FIFO basis after the
transfer of amount from special bank account maintained
for the issue. Disclosures of the utilization of funds are
presented in Note 35 of the financial statements.
INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
AUDITOR''S REPORT THEREON
The Company''s 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, Board''s Report including Annexures to Board''s Report,
Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone
financial statements and our auditor''s 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 AS 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 AS 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. However, we have nothing to report in this matter.
The Company''s Management 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 AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position and
financial performance of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the
Accounting Standards (AS)
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 applica¬
tion 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 standalone AS
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 AS 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.
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 financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism 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 an 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 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 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.
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 signifi¬
cance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore reported as 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.

Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act,

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on standalone AS financial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone AS Financial statements for the year ended March 31 2024.

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 reported as key audit matters.
