Recoverability assessment of deferred tax assets As detailed in note 10 (A) to the standalone financial statements, the Company has deferred tax assets (DTA) (net) amounting to \u20b9 5,187.64 lakhs outstanding as at 31 March 2026 which includes \u20b9 4,860.13 lakhs of DTA recognised on Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) credit. Refer Note 2 (xiv) for the related accounting policy adopted by the Company on deferred tax. The Companys ability to utilise the deferred tax assets is assessed by the management at the close of each reporting period as per Ind AS 12 Income taxes (Ind AS 12) and it depends upon the forecasts of future taxable profits that the Company expects to achieve within the period by which such MAT credit may be adjusted as governed by the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (IT Act) as read with Income Tax Act, 2025 in relation to amendments for availability and utilization of MAT credit which are effective from 1 April 2026. As per the managements assessment, the financial projections show a significant increase in profitability over the coming years, which will result in increase in income tax liability against which the available MAT credit can be utilised as mentioned above. Recognition of deferred tax asset on such MAT credit is based on projected future tax profits which involves significant judgement regarding the likelihood of its realization within the specified period through estimation of future taxable profits of and consequently there is a risk that the deferred tax asset comprising of MAT credit may not be realized within the specified period, if these future projections are not met. Considering the materiality of the amounts and significant judgment involved in estimation of future taxable profits and the probability of utilization of MAT credit, we have identified this matter, as a key audit matter in the current year audit.	Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to, the following: - Obtained understanding and evaluation of the process and controls designed and implemented by the management over recognition and recoverability assessment of DTA based on the evaluation of Companys ability to generate sufficient taxable profits in foreseeable future allowing the use of deferred tax assets on MAT credit and Business losses within the time prescribed by income tax laws. Further, tested the operating effectiveness of such controls. - Obtained the financial projections prepared by the management and verified the cash flow forecasts used in the recoverability assessment of DTA to the approved business plans. - Reviewed the historical accuracy of future taxable profit projections prepared by the management in prior periods. Obtained understanding from the management about the predicted business growth and viability of achieving those projections. - Evaluated managements assessment of time period available for adjustment of such deferred tax assets on MAT credit and Business losses as per provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and appropriateness of the accounting treatment with respect to the recognition of deferred tax assets on MAT credit and business losses as per the requirements of Ind AS 12, Income Taxes. - Assessed the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures made in the standalone financial statements in respect of aforesaid DTA balances in accordance with the requirements of applicable financial reporting framework.
Expected credit losses (ECL) on trade receivables The Company assesses impairment provision for doubtful receivables, based on Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model, as per Ind AS 109, Financial Instruments to state the entitys trade receivables to their carrying amount, which approximates their fair value. Management evaluates and calculates the expected credit losses using a provision matrix based on historical credit loss experience, specific reviews of customer accounts, experience with such customers, current economic and business conditions and industry assessment. In calculating expected credit loss, the Company has considered related credit information for its customers to estimate the probability of default in future. The Company has trade receivables (net of provision) of \u20b9 17,435.53 lakhs and provision of \u20b9 5,209.09 lakhs as on balance sheet date.	Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to, the following: - Obtained understanding of managements process over credit origination, credit monitoring and credit remediation by evaluating the Companys impairment policy and methodology. - Evaluated managements continuous assessment of the assumptions used in the impairment provision matrix. These considerations include whether there are regular receipts from the customers, the Companys past collection history as well as an assessment of the customers credit ability to make payments. - Obtained the ageing analysis of trade receivables and tested on a sample basis, the ageing of trade receivables at year end and discussed with management the reasons of any long outstanding amounts where no provisions were recorded and also evaluated managements assumptions used in determining the impairment provision, through detailed analyses of ageing of receivables, assessment of material overdue individual trade receivables and past trends of bad debts charged to the statement of profit and loss. - Verified mathematical accuracy of provision computation based on model considered by the management. - Assessed the accuracy and adequacy for disclosure made by the management in the accompanying standalone financial statements in respect of ECL in accordance with the requirements of applicable financial reporting framework.

Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

10. 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 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.

11. 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 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 Board of Directors 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; 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.

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. 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.
