We have audited,
a) the Standalone Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2025 and
(b) reviewed the Standalone Financial Results for the half year ended March 31,2025 (refer "Other
Matter" section below), which were subject to limited review by us, both included in the accompanying

requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements)
Regulations, 2015, as amended ("the Listing Regulations") and measurement principles laid down in
Indian Accounting Standards IND-AS 34.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit 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 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 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 we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion on the financial statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of financial statements of the current year. 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.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
The Statement which includes the Standalone Financial Results is the responsibility of the
Company's Board of Directors and has been approved by them for the issuance. The Standalone
Financial Results for the year ended March 31, 2025 has been compiled from the related audited
standalone financial statements. This responsibility includes the preparation and presentation of the
Standalone Financial Results for the half year and year ended March 31, 2025 that give a true and
fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive income and other financial information in
accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting
Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder and
other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of
the Listing Regulations. 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 the 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 Results that give a true and fair
view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone Financial Results, the Board of Directors 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 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 of the Company is also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting
process of the Company.
Auditor’s Responsibilities 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:
• 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.
• 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 Act, we are
also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal
financial controls with reference to 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 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 auditors' 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 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 auditors’ 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.
