Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs), specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the "Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 Standalone Financial Statements under the provisions of the Companies Act 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 audit opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to the following matters:

1 We draw attention to Note No. 58 wherein the Company had received communication dated May 10, 2024 under Section 206(4) of the Companies Act, 2013 from ROC, Delhi NCT & Haryana (ROC) for further information/ comment/ explanation/documents from the company to take the inquiry to a logical conclusion on complaint received from identified third parties in year 2018. The Company has submitted the desired information to ROC on June 29, 2024. The management believes that there will be no material financial impact of the above matters on the state of affairs of the Company on final conclusion of the above stated matters by the ROC.

2. Attention is drawn to Note No. 57 of the accompanying Statement, wherein the Company received four show cause notices (SCNs) issued by the Registrar of Companies, NCT of Delhi & Haryana (ROC) under the Companies Act, 2013. For one SCN, the Company filed an application for compounding and it was accepted on December 30, 2024 at compounding fees of Rs.0.02 Crores. For the remaining three SCNs, the ROC has imposed penalty(s) of Rs.0.06 Crores on the Company against which the Appeal has been filed with Regional Director (North), MCA. No further communication has been received by the company from ROC. The Company has made a provision towards the above penalty amount and expects no further material financial impact.

3. Basis the approved ECL methodology, the value of secured portion for loans is determined based on latest available information which includes book value of assets/projects as per latest audited balance sheet of the borrowers, Security Certificates, approved Project Cost etc. by the experts and valuation of underlying assets performed by external professionals and the Company expects to recover the net carrying value of these loans, basis the assessment of current facts, circumstances including past track records of the payment from borrowers and future economic conditions. However, the eventual recovery from these loans may be different from those estimated as on the date of approval of these standalone financial statements. (Refer Note No. 60).

Our conclusion on the Statement is not modified in respect of matters stated in para 1 to 3 above.

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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2025. 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. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the "Auditors responsibilities for the audit of the Standalone Financial Statements" section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements:

Sr. No Key Audit Matter

How the Key Audit Matter was addressed in our audit

1 Impairment of Loans and Advances (Expected Credit Loss Allowance)

Our audit procedures included, among others, the following:

Since the loans and advances form a major portion of the Companys assets, and due to the significance of the judgments used in classifying loans and advances into various stages as stipulated in Indian Accounting Standard (IND AS) 109 and the management estimation of the related impairment provisions, this is considered to be a key audit matter.

i. Evaluated appropriateness of the impairment principles based on the requirements of Ind AS 109 read with RBI Circular DOR (NBFC)CC.PD. No.109/22.10.106/2019-20 on Implementation of Indian Accounting Standards, Expected Credit Loss Policy, our business understanding and industry practice;

The Expected credit loss (‘ECL) approach involves an estimation of probability of loss on the Loans over their life, considering reasonable and supportable information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions which could impact the credit quality of the Companys financial assets.

ii. Tested the ECL model, including assumptions and underlying computation.

iii. Evaluated the reasonableness of the Management estimates by understanding the process of ECL estimation and tested the controls around data extraction and validation

The recognition and measurement of impairment of loans and advances involve significant management judgement in respect of the following matters:

iv. T ested the rating Model to evaluate the correctness of rating assigned

a. Defining the thresholds for significant increase in credit risk and for ‘default definition i.e. the number of days-past- due (DPD) post which a particular loan account will be considered either to have a significant increase in its credit risk or having defaulted.

v. Tested the criteria for staging of loans based on their past-due status to check compliance with requirement of Ind AS 109

b. Where relevant, segregating the loan portfolio under homogenous pools whereby the loans grouped in a particular category can be expected to demonstrate similar credit characteristics such that their probability of default can be determined on a collective basis.

vi. Tested a sample of performing (stage 1) loans to assess whether any loss indicators were present requiring them to be classified under stage 2 or 3 and vice versa.

c. Consideration of probability of default / Loss given default based on Rating Model Management exercises.

viii. Tested on a sample basis, the Exposure at Default used in the ECL calculation.

d. Management overlay for macroeconomic factors and estimation of their impact on the credit quality.

e. Consideration of forward looking macro-economic factors.

 

Sr. No Key Audit Matter

How the Key Audit Matter was addressed in our audit

2 Fair valuation of Security Receipts

Investment in Security Receipts of ARCs represent significant amount in terms of size of the Balance Sheet. Security Receipts are classified at "Fair Value Through Profit & Loss" (FVTPL) by the Company as the contractual cash flows of the Security Receipts do not represent for Solely for Principal and Interest (SPPI) on amount outstanding under the basic lending arrangement

Our audit procedures included, among others, the following:

i. Evaluated appropriateness of the Fair Value of Security Receipts based on the valuation principles as laid in Master Direction Reserve Bank of India (Transfer of Loan Exposures) Directions, 2021,

ii. Read the RBI Circular DOR (NBFC)CC.PD. No.109/22.10.106/2019- 20 on Implementation of Indian Accounting Standards, Expected Credit Loss Policy, our business understanding and industry practice to evaluate the correctness of the ECL adopted by the Company

We have determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our report

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 Directors Report, but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditors report thereon.

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 and, in doing so, consider whether such 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 any material misstatement in this Other Information, we are required to report that fact. We have not come across any such findings and hence there is nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibility of Management and those Charge with Governance 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 including Other Comprehensive Income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act read with the companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended. 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 the 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 Ind AS Financial Statement 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, 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 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:

a. Identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the Standalone Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risk, 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 control 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 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 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.

e. 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 for the year ended March 31, 2025 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 benefits of such communication.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting with reference to these Standalone 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") issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls. 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 over Financial Reporting was established and 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 over Financial Reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting included obtaining an understanding of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting with reference to these Standalone 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.
