We have audited the standalone financial statement TRUST FINTECH LIMITED (the
"Companyâ) which comprise the standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2025, and the
standalone statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), and
standalone statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the standalone
financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.
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
Companies Act, 2013 ("Actâ) 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 March 2025, and its profit and other comprehensive income, and
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 Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the
Auditorâs 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 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 the standalone financial statements.
The Company has capitalized a portion of employee salary costs to various projects or
assets under development during the year, in accordance with the applicable accounting
standards. The process of determining which salary costs are directly attributable and
eligible for capitalization involves significant management judgment and estimation. This
includes assessing the nature of work performed, time allocation of employees, and the
appropriateness of the basis used for apportioning costs. Given the materiality of the
amounts involved and the judgment required, we identified the capitalization of salary costs
as a key audit.
We draw attention to the following matters in the Notes to Standalone Financial Results:
No provision has been made for gratuity during the period as well during the previous
year in compliance of AS 15 "Employee Benefitsâ relating to the provision for Gratuity as
the same is being paid on yearly basis to all the eligible employees by the company.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
The Companyâs Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other
information. The other information comprises the information included in the Companyâs
annual report but does not include the financial statements and auditorâs 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 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.
The Companyâs Management and Board of Directors are 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 state of affairs, profit/ loss and other
comprehensive income, and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (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
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 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 standalone financial statements, the Management and Board of Directors
are responsible for assessing the Companyâs 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 is also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs 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 auditorâs 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 based on 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 risk 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 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
adequate internal financial controls systems are 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 managementâs use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exits related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Companyâs
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists,
we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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
auditorâs 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 misstatement 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
misstatement 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 significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we may 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.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
A company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the asset of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transaction are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statement in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditure of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
