We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements 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 Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone 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 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.

Description of Key Audit Matter

The Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Revenue Recognition
Refer Note 32 to the Financial Statements. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. During the year ended March 31, 2023, the company has recognised revenue amounting to Rs. 2499.06 Lakhs & Rs. 737.80 Lakhs from domestic and export sales respectively. Terms of sales arrangements, including the timing of transfer of control, delivery specifications including terms in case of exports, timing of recognition of sales require significant judgment in determining revenues. The risk is, therefore, that revenue may not get recognised in the correct period or that revenue and associated profit may be misstated. Our audit procedures included the following:-
^ Considering Companys revenue recognition policy and its compliance in terms of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contracts with customers.
^ Assessing the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internalcontrols related to revenue recognition.
^ Testing samples of individual sales transaction and tracing to sales invoices, sales orders, (received from customers) and other related documents including terms and conditions, if any.
^ Selecting sample of sales transactions made pre- and post-year end, agreeing the period of revenue recognition to underlying documents.
Accordingly, due to the significant risk associated with revenue recognition in accordance with terms of Ind AS 115 Revenue from contracts with customers, it has been determined to be a key audit matter in our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements. ^ Performing analytical review of revenue to identify any unusual trends.
^ Assessing the relevant disclosures made within the standalone Ind ASfinancial statements.
The Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Inventories Our audit procedures included the following:-
Refer Note 10 to the Financial Statements. Total Inventory as at 31.03.2023 was Rs. 1478.66 Lakhs and Finished goods of Rs. 537.10 Lakhs comprise 36.32 per cent of such inventory holdings. Total Inventories are 45.68 per cent of the total turnover of the company for FY 20222023. ^ Obtaining an understanding of and assessing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of managements key internal controls over inventories including sample based physical verification.
^ Verifying for a sample of individual products that costs have been correctly recorded.
The Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
The inventories are counted by the company on a cyclical basis and accordingly provisions for obsolescence including revision in valuation to Net Realizable Value, if any, of inventories are assessed and recognized by the management in the financial statements based on management estimation as at the end of the reporting period. Significant degree of judgment is thereby required to assess the net realizable value of the inventories and appropriate level of provisioning for items which may beultimately sold below cost. Such judgment includes managements expectations forfuture sale volumes, inventory liquidation plans and future selling prices less cost tosell. ^ Performing a review of the provisions for inventories by examiningmovements in the balance during the current year;
^ Assessing, on a sample basis, the net realizable value of inventories as calculated by management with reference to prices achieved and costs tosell after the financial year end.
^ Assessing the relevant disclosures made within the standalone financial statements.
Such high holdings, existence and valuation of inventories make it a key audit matter.
The Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Deferred Tax Asset Our audit procedures included the following:-
Refer Note 23 to the Financial Statements. Deferred Tax Asset (‘DTA) is recognized by the company on the Unused Tax Credits and Unused Tax Losses. Total Deferred Tax Asset on such matters stand at Rs. 36.48 Lakhs as at 31.03.2023. ^ Our audit procedures included the following:-
DTA is recognized on such unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the extent that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax losses and unused tax credits can be utilised. The risk is, therefore, that sufficient profits may not be available in the future to utilise such Deferred Tax Asset. ^ Updating our understanding of the identifiable causes behind occurrence of tax losses and assessing whether such causes are likely to recur.
^ Obtaining an understanding from the management and assessing the accounting and financial estimates on the basis of which the company shall have sufficient taxable profits before expiry of unused tax losses and unused tax credits.
Such existence and recognition of Deferred Tax Asset make it a Key Audit Matter. ^ Assessing the relevant disclosures made within the standalone financial statements.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditors Report thereon

The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Companys Annual Report but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditors 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 during the course of our 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.

Managements Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Companys 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 standalone financial statements to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit/loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards(Ind 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, management is responsible for assessing the Companys 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.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the companys financial reporting process.

Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

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 auditors 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.

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 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 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 system 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 managements 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 Companys ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors 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 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 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.

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 standalone 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.

The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A companys internal financial control 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 companys 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 assets of the company; (2) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures 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 unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys 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.
