Revenue recognition from real estate projects Refer note 1 and note 24 to the standalone financial statements for material accounting policy information and related disclosures, respectively. Revenue recognised from real estate projects under development (âconstruction projectsâ) during the year ended 31 March 2026 amounts to ? 160,282 lakhs. |

How our audit addressed the key audit matters |

In accordance with Ind AS 115, âRevenue from Contracts with Customersâ (âInd AS 115â), the Company has assessed and concluded that its performance obligations arising from the construction projects satisfy the criteria for recognition of revenue over the period of time. Accordingly, revenue is recognized using a percentage of completion method (POCM) computed as per the input method. We focused on this area because significant management judgments and estimates are applied in: ⢠determining whether the criteria for satisfaction of performance obligation and recognition of revenue over the period of time in accordance with Ind AS 115 was met; ⢠estimating total contract costs of the construction projects, including contingencies that could arise from variations to the original contract terms; and ⢠estimating the proportion of contract work completed forthe construction projects which requires estimates in relation to remaining cost to be incurred to complete the projects. The estimates of various contract-related costs and revenue can be potentially impacted on account of various factors and it can differ from the actual outcomes. The changes in these judgements and the related estimates as contracts progress can result in material adjustments to revenue recognized during the year and margins. Considering the materiality of the amounts involved, and significant judgements applied in determining the appropriate accounting treatment as mentioned above, this matter required significant auditorâs attention and therefore, has been identified as a key audit matter for the current year audit. |
⢠Evaluated the appropriateness of the managementâs assessment that the performance obligations arising from the construction projects satisfy the criteria for revenue recognition over time, in accordance with Ind AS 115; ⢠On a sample basis, tested revenue transactions recorded during the year with the underlying customer contracts/agreements; ⢠Assessed the reasonableness of key inputs and assumptions used in the estimation of total contract costs and remaining cost to complete the projects and also reviewed managementâs internal approvals process on a sample basis for any changes in initial budgeted costs; ⢠Examined actual costs incurred on a sample basis by verifying supporting documents such as underlying invoices and signed work orders and further compared it with the budgeted total contract costs to determine percentage of completion of construction projects as applied for revenue recognition; ⢠Visited sites during the year for selected projects to understand the nature, status and progress of the projects and tested the mathematical accuracy of the underlying calculations of stage of completion with respect to construction projects; and ⢠Assessed the appropriateness and adequacy of disclosures made in accordance with applicable accounting standards. |

Assessment of recoverability of carrying values of inventories Refer note 1 and note 9 to the standalone financial statements for material accounting policy information and related disclosures, respectively. As at 31 March 2026, the carrying value of inventories of the Company comprise of land of ? 6,997 lakhs , finished properties of ? 2,299 lakhs, properties under development of ? 86,284 lakhs and stores and spares of ? 44 lakhs, which collectively represents 27% of the Companyâs total assets. These inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV). The inventory is not written down below cost when completed flats/ under-construction flats / properties are expected to be sold at or above cost and the cost includes direct and indirect expenditure relating or incidental to construction activity. The determination of NRV involves various estimates such as prevailing market conditions, current market prices, and it also takes into account the stage of completion of the inventory, the estimated future selling price, cost to complete projects and selling costs. Considering the materiality of amounts and the significance of management judgement and estimates involved as mentioned above, this matter has been identified as a key audit matter for the current year audit. |
Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to the following: ⢠Evaluated the appropriateness of the Companyâs accounting policy with respect to inventories in terms of principles enunciated under Ind AS 2, âInventoriesâ; ⢠Obtained an understanding of the management process for determination of NRV and identification of possible impairment indicators; ⢠Evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of key controls for inventory valuation including review of estimates involved in the expected cost of completion of projects, total budgeted costs, and NRV; ⢠Understood and reviewed key assumptions used by the management in determination of the NRV; ⢠For a sample of selected projects, compared costs incurred and estimates of future costs to complete the project with costs of similar projects and/or with the budgets and also compared NRV to recent sales price or to the estimated selling price; ⢠For land stock obtained fair valuation reports from management and reviewed the valuation methodology, key estimates and assumptions adopted in valuation; and ⢠Evaluated the appropriateness and adequacy of disclosures made in accordance with applicable accounting standard. |

7. The Companyâs Board of Directors are 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 auditorâs 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.
In 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.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
8. The accompanying standalone financial statements have been approved by the Companyâs Board of Directors. The Companyâs Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS specified under section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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.
9. In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Board of Directors is 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.
10. The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
11. 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 Standards on Auditing 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.
12. As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, specified under section 143(10) of the Act we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism 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 controls;
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal 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 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 Board of Directorsâ 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 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; and
⢠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.
13. 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 controls that we identify during our audit.
14. 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.
15. 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 auditorâs 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.
