1. Opinion
We have audited the standalone financial statements of Kanani Industries Limited, which
comprise the balance sheet as at 31st March, 2023, the statement of Profit and Loss,
statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and
notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies
and other explanatory information.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations
given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Act
in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in ","conformity with
the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) specified in Section 133 of the Act, of the state of affairs of the
Company as at March 31, 2023, its profit, cash flows and the changes in equity for the
year ended on that date.
2. Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit 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
Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in
accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the
financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules
thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
3. Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters
were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in
forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
No provision for gratuity, amount not ascertainable in absence of acturial valuation by
a certified valuer, has been made by the company.
4. 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 that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance, (changes in equity) and cash flows of the Company in
accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the
accounting Standards 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 financial statement that give
a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
In preparing the 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.
5. Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and
maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
a. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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.
b. 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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.
c. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
d. 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 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.
e. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial
statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those
matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 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 matters 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 of such communication.
9. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

5 Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy

their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to
standalone financial statements included obtaining an understanding of such internal
financial controls, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to standalone financial
statements
7 A companys internal financial control with reference to standalone financial
statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of standalone financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal
financial control with reference to standalone 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 standalone 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

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