(SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further described

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 standalone financial
statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules
made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and
the ICAIs 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 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 year. 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. We have determined the
matters described below to be the key audit matters to be
communicated in our report w.r.t the Company:

Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
Adequacy and completeness of disclosures of
Related Party Transactions
Our procedures included the following steps:
V Obtaining an understanding of the Companys policies and
procedures in respect of identification of related parties and
transactions with them. We also traced the related parties from
declaration given by directors, wherever applicable.
Refer Note 47 to the accompanying standalone
financial statements as at March 31, 2023 for the
disclosure of related parties and transactions with
them.
V Read the minutes of the meetings of Board of Directors and Audit
Committee and verified that the transactions are approved in
accordance with internal procedures and the applicable regulations
to the Company.
The Company has related party transactions which
include among others, sale/purchase of goods to its
subsidiaries and other related parties. This area was
significant to our audit due to the following reasons:
V Tested on a sample basis the arrangements between the
related parties along with supporting documents to evaluate the
managements assertions that the transactions were at arms
length and in the ordinary course of business.
- the significance of transactions with related
parties during the year ended March 31, 2023;
and
Key Audit Matter How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter
- related party transactions are subject to
compliance requirement under the Companies
Act, 2013 and SEBI (listing and Obligation
Disclosure Requirement) 2015.
V Evaluated and tested on a sample basis the rights and obligations
of the related parties and assessed whether the transactions were
recorded appropriately and disclosed in accordance with IND AS 24,
Companies Act, 2013 and SEBI (LODR), 2015.
V Wherever appropriate, our substantive work was supplemented
by controls testing work which encompassed understanding,
evaluating and testing key controls in respect of Related Party
Transactions.
Our procedures as mentioned above did not identify any findings that are
significant for the financial statements as whole in respect of accounting,
presentation and disclosure of Related Party Transactions.
Recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosures of revenues as per Ind AS 115 "Revenue
from Contracts with Customers"
Our procedures included, but were not limited to the following:
V Assessed the appropriateness of the Companys revenue
recognition accounting policies as per Ind AS 115 -Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.
Refer Note 3(h) to the accompanying standalone
financial statements as at March 31,2023
V Obtained an understanding and assessed the design,
implementation and operating effectiveness of key internal controls
over recognition and measurement of revenue in accordance with
customer contracts, including correct timing of revenue recognition.
In accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 115
- Revenue from Contracts with Customers, an entity
shall recognise revenue when the entity satisfies a
performance obligation by transferring a promised
good or service to a customer. An asset is transferred
when the customer obtains control of that asset.
Revenue is one of the key measures of performance.
Revenue is identified as an area of significant risk.
As per the accounting policy, the Company derives
its revenue primarily from sale of garments with
revenue recognised at a point in time when control
of the goods has transferred to the customer. At the
year end, management has to exercise significant
judgement & control as the volume of transactions
are high. Accordingly, Revenue Recognition is
identified as a Key Audit Matter.
V Performed substantive testing (including year-end cut-off testing)
by selecting samples of revenue transactions recorded during the
year, verifying with the underlying documents i.e. sales invoices,
dispatch documents including shipping bill, Airway bill, bill of lading,
forwarder cargo receipt etc.
V Performed cut off testing, on sample basis to ensure that the
revenue from sale of goods is recognised in the appropriate period.
V Assessed manual journals posted to revenue to identify unusual
items and tested the same on a sample basis.
V Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness of revenues
disclosed vis-a-vis the direct and indirect costs involved.
V Considered adequacy of the Companys disclosures in respect of
revenue and related estimates and judgements in the standalone
Ind AS financial statements.
Based on our procedures as mentioned above, we did not identify
any findings that are significant for the financial statements as whole
in respect of accounting, presentation and disclosure of Revenue
Recognition.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial
Statements and Auditors Report Thereon

The Companys 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
auditors report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to
be made available to us after the date of this auditors report.

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
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.

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.

Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with
Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Companys 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, total comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in
accordance with the Ind AS 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.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Board
of Directors 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 Board of
Directors 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 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 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 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.

Other Matters

The comparative financial statement of the Company for
the year ended March 31,2023 included in this standalone
financial statement, are based on the previously issued
statutory standalone financial statements which had been
audited by the predecessor auditor whose report for the
year ended March 31, 2022 dated May 25, 2022 expressed
an unmodified opinion on those standalone financial
statement. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this
matter.

to us and on the basis of the financial ratios, ageing
and expected dates of realisation of financial assets
and payment of financial liabilities, other information
accompanying the financial statements, our knowledge
of the Board of Directors and Managements plans and
based on our examination of the evidence supporting
the assumptions, nothing has come to our attention,
which causes us to believe that any material uncertainty
exists as on the date of the audit report that Company

is not capable of meeting its liabilities existing at the
date of balance sheet as and when they fall due within
a period of one year from the balance sheet date. We,
however, state that this is not an assurance as to the
future viability of the Company. We further state that
our reporting is based on the facts up to the date of
the audit report and we neither give any guarantee nor
any assurance that all liabilities falling due within a
period of one year from the balance sheet date, will get
discharged by the Company as and when they fall due.

xx) In respect of Corporate Social Responsibility, according
to the information and explanations given to us and
audit procedures performed by us:

a) There are no unspent amounts towards Corporate
Social Responsibility (CSR) on other than ongoing
projects requiring to be transferred to a Fund
specified in Schedule VII to the Companies Act in
compliance with second proviso to sub-section
(5) of section 135 of the said Act. Accordingly,
provisions of clause 3 (xx) (a) of the Order are not
applicable.

b) There are no ongoing CSR projects under
sub-section (6) of section 135 of the said Act.
Accordingly, provisions of clause 3 (xx) (b) of the
Order are not applicable.

xxi) The reporting under clause 3(xxi) of the Order is not
applicable in respect of audit of standalone financial
statements. Accordingly, no comment in respect of the
said clause has been included in this report.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i)
of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act,
2013 ("the Act")

We have audited the internal financial controls with reference
to financial statements of Pearl Global Industries Limited
("the Company") as of March 31,2023 in conjunction with
our audit of the standalone financial statements of the
Company for the year ended on that date.

Managements Responsibility for Internal Financial
Controls

The Companys management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining internal financial controls based on the
internal control with reference to financial statements criteria
established by the Company considering the essential
components of internal control stated in the Guidance
Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial
Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India (ICAI). These responsibilities include the design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal
financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring
the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including
adherence to companys policies, the safeguarding of its
assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors,
the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,
and the timely preparation of reliable financial information,
as required under the Act.

Auditors Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys
internal financial controls with reference to financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal
Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance
Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and
deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the
Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit
of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of
Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute
of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and
the Guidance note require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal
financial controls with reference to financial statements
was established & maintained and if such controls operated
effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit
evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial
controls system with reference to financial statements and
their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial
controls with reference to financial statements included
obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with
reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a
material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based
on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on
the auditors judgement, including the assessment of the
risks of material misstatement of the 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
with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to
financial statements

A companys internal financial control with reference to
financial statements 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 with reference to financial statements 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 authorisations of management and
directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the
Companys assets that could have a material effect on the
standalone financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with
reference to financial statements

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial
controls with reference to financial statements, 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 with reference to
financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk
that the internal financial control with reference to financial
statements may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an
adequate internal financial controls system with reference
to financial statements and such internal financial controls
with reference to financial statements were operating

effectively as at March 31,2023, based on the internal control
with reference to financial statements criteria established
by the Company considering the essential components
of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of
Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued
by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
