As at 31st March, 2026, the ca_uying value of the Company total investments amounted to Rs. 1,137.14 lakhs (net of impai_ment/fair value adjustments).

| The deteDmination of the recoverable amount and fair value of these non-cufirent investments involves significant management judgment, complex assumptions, and estimates, pafiticularly regarding the valuation of unquoted inst_uments and assessing long-teDm diminution in the value of subsidia_ies. Accordingly, we considered this to be a key audit matter. | · Obtained and reviewed the management assessment of impai_ment and reversal of impai_ment losses relating to quoted and unquoted investments. |

· Evaluated the underlying booking / purchase agreements, letters of intent, and legal te_ms associated with these capital advances to understand the timelines, obligations, and transfer of titles; |
| Assessing the ca_uying value and recoverability of these advances involved significant management judgment, including evaluating whether any impai_ment provision was required. Accordingly, we considered this to be a key audit matter. | · Enquires made with management regarding the cufirent status of the transactions and inspected relevant project development updates and suppofiting documentation relating to the proposed acquisitions; |

Infocmation Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditocs Repofit Thereon
The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other infocmation. The other infocmation comp_ises the Boards Repofit, Management Discussion and Analysis and Corporate GoveDnance, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditocs repofit thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other infocmation and we do not express any focm of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other infocmation and, in doing so, consider whether the other infocmation is mateDially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained du_ing the course of our audit or othe_wise appears to be mateDially misstated.
If, based on the work we have pe_focmed, we conclude that there is a mateDial misstatement of this other infocmation, we are required to repofit that fact. We have nothing to repofit in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Companys Management and the 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 tTue and fair view of the financial position, financial pe_focmance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting p_inciples 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 i regulacities; selection and application of approp_iate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and p_udent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate inteDnal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensu_ing the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a tTue and fair view and are free from mateDial misstatement, whether due to fraud or eDror.
In prepa_ing the standalone financial statements, Management and the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Companys ability to continue as a going conce?n, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going conce?n and using the going conce?n basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alteDnative but to do so.
The Companys management and the Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial repofiting process.
Auditocs 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 mateDial misstatement, whether due to fraud or eDror, and to issue an auditocs repofit 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 (SAs) will always detect a mateDial misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can auise from fraud or eDror and are considered mateDial 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 pafit of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the Disks of mateDial misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or eDror, design and pe_focm audit procedures responsive to those _isks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and approp_iate to provide a basis for our opinion. The _isk of not detecting a mateDial misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from eDror, as fraud may involve collusion, forge_y, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the oveD_ide of inteDnal control.
Obtain an understanding of inteDnal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are approp_iate 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 inteDnal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
Evaluate the approp_iateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the approp_iateness of managements use of the going conce?n basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a mateDial uncefitainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going conce?n. If we conclude that a mateDial uncefitainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditocs repofit 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 auditocs repofit. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going conce?n.
Evaluate the overall presentation, stflucture 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 communicated with those charged with goveDnance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in inteDnal control that we identify du_ing our audit.
We also provide those charged with goveDnance 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 goveDnance, we deteDmine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the financial year ended on 31st March 2026 and are therefore the key audit matters. We desc_ibe these matters in our auditocs repofit unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we deteDmine that a matter should not be communicated in our repofit because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Our audit of inteDnal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements included obtaining an understanding of inteDnal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements, assessing the _isk that a mateDial weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of inteDnal control based on the assessed _isk.
