Key Audit Matters

4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significant in our audit of Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key Audit Matter How the matter was addressed in our Audit
a) Bombay High Court order passed in case of Raj Oil Mills Ltd v/s Mr. Shaukat Suleman Thadadra & Ors. (Refer Note 2.2 to the financial statements)
The Company had initiated legal proceedings against one of its former directors Mr. Shaukat Suleman Thadadra and Ors. The said petition was originally filed on 28/02/2023 seeking damages amounting to Rs. 372.13 lakhs. The Company has accounted for such partial settlement on a receipt basis on account of uncertainty revolving regarding receipt of the same. This is evidence of the fact that litigation is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate collection of income arising out of legal proceedings.
The said lawsuit and the proceedings was disposed of during the year ended March 31, 2023 where the Company obtained a favourable outcome in form of settlement towards compensation whereby the defendants were ordered to pay the aforesaid amount to the plaintiff in full and final settlement of the above suit. We considered the implications of the outcome of the law suit on the financial statements, particularly in relation to the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of the related amounts. Our audit procedures in respect to this key audit matter include, but are not limited to the following:
During the year under audit, the Company has received Rs. 95 lakhs as a partial amount towards the settlement outcome. • Evaluating the appropriateness of the Companys accounting treatment and disclosure of the lawsuit and its outcome in the financial statements.
We considered this as a key audit matter due to the uncertainty attached towards receipt of the balance amount arising out of legal proceedings and a significant judgement involved in determining and estimating receipts of the proceedings. • Assessment of the supporting documentation, bank statements, and relevant evidence provided by the Company to support the recognition and measurement of the related amounts.
• Obtaining an understanding of the legal process and the Companys legal counsels expertise and reputation.
• Review of the adequacy and appropriateness of the disclosures made in the financial statements regarding the lawsuit, including any contingent liabilities arising from it.
b) Revenue recognition
The Company follows the revenue recognition policy in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS). Revenue is recognized when it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the company and can be reliably measured. The policy outlines the key criteria and methods used for recognizing revenue from the sale of goods, rendering of services, and other sources. Our audit procedures relating to revenue recognition included, but were not limited to, the following procedures:
Revenue recognition for sale of products in accordance with the principles of Ind AS 115, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Ind AS 115), for the Company involves certain key judgements, such as, identification of performance obligations in a contract, determination of transaction price including variable consideration in the form of rebates, discounts under various promotional schemes offered by the Company, and assessment of satisfaction of the performance obligations represented by the transfer of control of the products sold to the customers. • Understanding the appropriateness of the Companys accounting policy for revenue recognition and the process followed by the company to determine the amount of discounts, incentives and rebates including determination of transaction price and satisfaction of performance obligations.
Owing to the significance of amount, companys products and revenue streams, volume of transactions during the year requires significant auditor attention and industry knowledge, and accordingly, revenue recognition is considered as a key audit matter in the current year audit. • Evaluating the design and implementation and testing operating effectiveness of Companys general controls, key manual and application control over the companys IT systems including controls over discounts, scheme related payments and offers provided along-with rebate payments / settlements and companys review over the rebate accruals.
The Company provides various sale incentives in form of discounts and rebates. Discounts given include rebates, price reductions and other incentives given to customers. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the discounts and returns. The volume discounts are assessed based on anticipated annual purchases. Certain discounts and rebates for goods sold during the year are only finalised when the precise amounts are known. The Company recognises provision for sales return, based on the historical results, measured on net basis of the margin of the sale. • Performing substantive testing by selecting samples of discounts and rebates transactions recorded during the year as well as period end discounts and rebates accruals and matching the parameters used in the computation with the relevant source documents.
• Tested the mathematical accuracy of the underlying calculations by checking completeness and accuracy of the data used by the company for accrual of discounts, rebates, incentives schemes provided.
• Testing a selection of discounts given, schemes, recorded after March 31, 2023 and assessing whether the same is recorded in the correct period.
• Testing a selection of payments made after March 31,2023 and where relevant, comparing the payment to the related scheme or discounts.
c) Issue of Rights shares and subsequent withdrawal of the same (Refer Note 2 (xxvii) to the financial statements)
During the year under audit, the Company initiated a rights issue, offering its existing shareholders the opportunity to subscribe for to 1,49,88,684 shares of INR 10 each at a premium of INR 20 per share. The rights issue aimed to raise additional capital for the companys growth and expansion plans. However, due to high volatility, prevailing market conditions, and uncertainties in the capital markets, the rights issue was withdrawn from the market on March 20, 2023. Furthermore, the company incurred expenses amounting to Rs. 0.47 crores in relation to the rights issue, which are considered material in the context of the companys financial statements. Our audit procedures relating to revenue recognition included, but were not limited to, the following procedures:
The rights issue, its withdrawal, and the associated expenses pose various risks, including the potential impact on the companys financial position, compliance with accounting standards, and regulatory requirements. The risk of misstatement arises from the need to accurately account for the rights issue, appropriately disclose the withdrawal, assess the impact on the companys financial statements, and ensure compliance with relevant accounting and disclosure standards. • Reviewing relevant documentation, including board resolutions, prospectus, shareholder communications, and market updates, to understand the terms and conditions of the rights issue, the reasons behind its withdrawal, and the impact on the companys financial statements. We also examined supporting evidence for the incurred expenses.
• Assessment the companys accounting treatment of the rights issue, including the recognition of share capital, premium, and associated expenses. We reviewed the compliance with the applicable accounting standards, ensuring the appropriateness of the recognition, measurement, and disclosure in the financial statements.
• Evaluation of the adequacy and clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements related to the rights issue, its withdrawal, and the incurred expenses and assessing whether the disclosures provided relevant and reliable information to shareholders and investors, in compliance with the applicable accounting and disclosure requirements.
• Evaluation of the impact of the rights issue withdrawal and the expenses incurred on the companys financial position. This included assessing the effect on the companys capital structure, liquidity, and financial performance. We also considered any implications on the companys ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern.

Information other than the financial statements and auditors report thereon.

5. The Companys board of directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Boards report, Management Discussion and Analysis and other information but does not include the financial statements and our auditors report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

6. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information 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.

7. If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

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

8. The Companys board of directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134 (5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance 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.

9. 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.

10. The board of directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial reporting process.

Auditors Responsibility for the audit of financial statements

11. 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.

12. 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 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 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

• 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 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 financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial statements of the company to express an opinion on the financial statements.

13. 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.

14. 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.

15. 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 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.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. 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 system 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, 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. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A companys internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal financial control over financial reporting 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 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 (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

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.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March, 2023, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
