comprehensive income (comprising of profit and
other comprehensive loss), changes in equity and its

Basis for Opinion

3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under Section
143(10) of the Act. 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 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.

Key audit matters

4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgement, 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 standalone financial
statements as a whole and in forming our opinion
thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion
on these matters.

Other Information

5. The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the
other information. The other information comprises
the information included in the Annual report, but
does not include the standalone financial statements
and our auditor''s report thereon. The 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 will not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

I n connection with our audit of the standalone
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
standalone financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.

When we read the 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 appropriate action as
applicable under the relevant laws and regulations.

Responsibilities of management and those

charged with governance for the standalone

financial statements

6. The Company''s Board of Directors is 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 financial position, financial performance,
changes in equity and cash flows 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 standalone
financial statements that give a true and fair view and
are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.

7. In preparing the standalone financial statements,
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 Board of Directors either intends
to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or
has no realistic alternative but to do so.

8. 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

9. 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.

10. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgement 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 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 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.

11. 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.

12. 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.

13. 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 other legal and regulatory requirements

14. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order,
2020 ("the Order"), issued by the Central Government
of India in terms of sub-section (11) of Section 143 of
the Act, we give in the "Annexure B" a statement on the

11 of the Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules,
2014 (as amended), in our opinion and to the
best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us:

i. The Company has disclosed the impact of
pending litigations on its financial position
in its standalone financial statements
- Refer Note 30 to the standalone
financial statements;

ii. The Company was not required to recognise
a provision as at March 31, 2026 under
the applicable law or Indian Accounting
Standards, as it does not have any material
foreseeable losses on long-term contract.
The Company did not have any long term
derivative contracts as at March 31, 2026.

iii. There were no amounts which were required
to be transferred to the Investor Education
and Protection Fund by the Company during
the year ended March 31, 2026.

that, to the best of its knowledge and
belief, as disclosed in Note 42 (vii) to
the standalone financial statements,
no funds have been advanced or
loaned or invested (either from
borrowed funds or share premium or
any other sources or kind of funds)
by the Company to or in any other
person(s) or entity(ies), including
foreign entities ("Intermediaries"),
with the understanding, whether
recorded in writing or otherwise,
that the Intermediary shall, whether
directly or indirectly, lend or invest in
other persons or entities identified
in any manner whatsoever by or on
behalf of the Company ("Ultimate
Beneficiaries") or provide any
guarantee, security or the like on behalf
of the Ultimate Beneficiaries;

shall, whether directly or indirectly, lend
or invest in other persons or entities
identified in any manner whatsoever
by or on behalf of the Funding Party
("Ultimate Beneficiaries") or provide
any guarantee, security or the like on
behalf of the Ultimate Beneficiaries; and

(c) Based on such audit procedures
that we considered reasonable and
appropriate in the circumstances,
nothing has come to our notice
that has caused us to believe that
the representations under sub¬

material misstatement.

v. The Company has not declared or paid any
dividend during the year.

test checks, the Company has used an
accounting software for maintaining its
books of account which has a feature of
recording audit trail (edit log) facility that is
enabled and has operated during the year
for all relevant transactions recorded in the
software except that the audit trail is not
maintained for certain transactions. Further,
with respect to the database infrastructure
managed by the third-party cloud service
provider, in the absence of specific
information pertaining to audit trail controls
in the independent service auditor''s report,
we are unable to comment on the audit trail
feature at the database level.

During the course of performing our
procedures, other than the aforesaid
instances of audit trail not enabled/

Other Information

5. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for
the other information. The other information comprises
the information included in the Annual report, but does
not include the financial statements and our auditor’s

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does

financial statements

9. 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

considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic

and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and 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
