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 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 financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2025. 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. For
each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that
context:

Key Audit Matters	Auditor’s Response
Valuation of Inventories Refer to note 15 to the financial statements. The Company is having Inventory of Rs. 74.07 lakhs as on 31 March 2025. As described in the accounting policies Note No 2.5 to the financial statements, inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The management applies judgment in determining the appropriate provisions against inventories of Store, Raw Material, Finished goods and Work in progress based upon a detailed analysis of old inventory, net realisable value below cost based upon future plans for sale of inventory. To ensure that all inventories owned by the entity are recorded and recorded inventories exist as at the year-end and valuation has been done correctly, inventory valuation has been considered as Key audit matters.	We have obtained assurance over the appropriateness of the management’s assumptions applied in calculating the value of the inventories and related provisions and management assertion regarding existence and ownership by:- Completed a walkthrough of the inventory valuation process and assessed the design and implementation of the key controls addressing the risk. Verify that the adequate cut off procedure has been applied to ensure that purchased inventory and sold inventory are correctly accounted. Reviewing the document and other record related to physical verification of inventories done by the management during the year. Verifying for a sample of individual products that costs have been correctly recorded. We also analysed the level of slow-moving inventory and the associated provision. We have reviewed the historical accuracy of inventory provisioning and the level of inventory write-offs during the financial year. Comparing the net realisable value to the cost price of inventories to check for completeness of the associated provision. Performing substantive analytical procedures to test the correctness of inventory existence and valuation. The procedures performed gave us sufficient evidence to conclude about the inventory existence and valuation.
Intangible Assets Refer to note 11 to the financial statements. During the year, the Company incurred expenses towards the construction and installation of police booths. The Company has treated these expenses as a Right-of-Use (ROU) asset and capitalized the same under the head “Intangible Assets - ROU Asset” in its books of accounts. The police booth, while serving a public utility function, has also been utilized by the Company to generate revenue through advertising space (ad box) placed on the booth. This area was considered a key audit matter due to the judgment involved in determining whether the arrangement meets the definition of a ROU asset under applicable accounting standards, the appropriateness of capitalization under intangible assets, and the linkage between the asset and the associated economic benefits derived from advertising revenue.	Our audit procedures included: • Reviewing the agreement and related documentation pertaining to the construction and use of the police booth. • Evaluating the Company’s assessment of control and economic benefits associated with the police booth in the context of ROU asset recognition criteria. • Assessing the classification of the asset under intangible assets and reviewing the capitalization entries. • Testing the revenue streams linked to the police booth advertising to ensure consistency with the recognition of the ROU asset. • Reviewing disclosures made in the financial statements regarding the nature and treatment of the asset.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will not

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 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.

RESPONSIBILITY OF MANAGEMENT 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 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 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 financial statement 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 RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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:

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

4. 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.

5. 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 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 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.
