In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section of our report, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, (Ind AS) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2026, its Loss, Other Comprehensive Income, its Cash Flows and Changes in Equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

3. The Company has not recognised Dividend on cumulative redeemable preference share on effective interest method as required by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments. Dividend on cumulative redeemable preference shares amounting to 110.75 Lakhs for the year (Previous year 110.75 Lakhs) has not been provided (Note No. 27.3). The total amount of Dividend on cumulative redeemable preference shares not provided till 31st March 2026 amounts to 3891.61 Lakhs (up to previous Balance Sheet date 3780.86 Lakhs) including Dividend Distribution Tax Payable thereon of 569.12 Lakhs (Note No. 13.2). Had the Company provided interest on financial liabilities in current year, Finance Cost & Loss for the year would have been higher by 110.75 Lakhs and Other Current Financial Liabilities & debit balance of Retained Earning under the head Other Equity would have been higher by 3891.61 Lakhs (upto previous Balance Sheet date 3780.86 Lakhs). A similar qualification had been given in the previous years Auditors Report.

4. The company has not recognised interest in respect of certain Secured and Unsecured Borrowings on effective interest method as required by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments. Interest on certain Secured and Unsecured Borrowings amounting to 61.41 Lakhs for the year (Previous year 57.47 Lakhs) (Note No. 27.1, & 27.2) has not been provided. Had the Company provided interest on certain Secured and Unsecured Borrowings in current year, Finance Cost & Loss for the year would have been higher by 61.41 Lakhs (previous year 57.47 Lakhs) and Other Current Financial Liabilities & debit balance of Retained Earning under the head Other Equity would have been higher by 2419.20 Lakhs (upto previous Balance Sheet date 2357.79 Lakhs).

5. The Company has not measured Non-Current Borrowing of 7119.00 Lakhs (P.Y. 6984.00 Lakhs) initially at fair value as required by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments. Had the Company fair valued the same; Interest Income, Finance Cost & Non-current Borrowings would have been higher and Other Current Finance Liabilities would have been lower by 584.96 Lakhs (Previous year 517.63 Lakhs). However, there is no effect in Statement of Profit & Loss for the year as well as Debit balance of Other Equity (Refer Note no. 13.5, 22.1 & 27.4). A similar qualification had been given in the previous years Auditors Report.

Key Audit Matters

10. 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.

11. Key audit matter identified in our audit in respect of Valuation and Existence of High Inventory Levels as follows:

[Refer Note 1 A(g), 5 & 24]

Sr. No. Name of Components	Key audit matter	How our audit addressed the key audit matter
1. Valuation and Existence of High Inventory Levels	As at 31.03.2026, the Company has reported inventories amounting to 14.05 cores, as disclosed in Note 5 to the financial statements which is almost 51.61% of Total Assets. This represents a significant portion of the Companys total assets. The inventories primarily comprise [e.g., raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods]. The valuation of inventories involves significant management judgment, particularly in assessing net realizable value, identifying obsolete or slow-moving items, and applying appropriate costing methodologies. In addition, the existence of such a substantial inventory balance requires robust controls around stock verification and reconciliation. We considered this a key audit matter due to the magnitude of the inventory balance and the subjectivity involved in its valuation, which required extensive audit procedures and professional judgment.	Our audit procedures included, among others: \u2022 Evaluating the design and testing the operating effectiveness of controls over inventory management and valuation. \u2022 Participating in and observing physical inventory counts and condition of inventory. \u2022 Assessing the appropriateness of the inventory valuation methods used, as weighted average methods. \u2022 Testing the net realizable value of selected inventory items by comparing cost to recent selling prices and reviewing subsequent sales transactions. \u2022 Assessing the Companys process for identifying and provisioning for obsolete and slow-moving inventory, including evaluating managements estimates and assumptions. \u2022 Reviewing the adequacy and completeness of disclosures in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework

Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditors Report thereon

12. The Companys management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Boards Report including Annexures to Boards Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholders Information and other information in the Companys annual report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditors report thereon. The other information 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 identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and as may be legally advised.

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

13. 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 statement that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other Comprehensive Income, cash flows and changes in equity 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 the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of the 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.

14. 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.

15. Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial reporting process.

Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

16. 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

17. 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 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.

18. 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.

19. 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.

20. 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 year 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.

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.
