A. We have audited the accompanying
Standalone Financial Statements of APIS
India Limited ("the Company"), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at March
31, 2025, the Statement of Profit and
Loss (including Other Comprehensive
Income), the Statement of Changes in
Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows
for the year ended on that date, and a
summary of the significant accounting
policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as
"the Standalone Financial Statements").
B. In our opinion and to the best of our
information and according to the
explanations given to us, 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, 2025, the
profit and total comprehensive income,
changes in equity and its cash flows for
the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the Standalone
Financial Statements in accordance with the
Standards on Auditing specified under section
143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities
under those Standards are further described in
the Auditor''s 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 (ICAI)
together with the independence requirements
that are relevant to our audit of the financial
statements under the provisions of the Act and
the Rules made there under, and we have fulfilled
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with these requirements and the ICAI''s 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.
We draw the attention on the trade receivable
amounting to Rs. 213.21 Lakhs which is classified
as disputed trade receivable-considered good.
Management has made a provision of expected
credit loss on for Rs. 195.87 lakhs on their
foreign debtors that is classified under disputed
trade receivables. However, as explain to us,
management is in position to recover the amount
and same is also covered under ECGC.
Further, the delays in receipt of proceeds
denominated in foreign currency against export
of goods made by the Company to its overseas
customers aggregating to Rs. 650.06 lakhs as on
31 March 2025, beyond the timelines stipulated
under the Foreign Exchange Management Act,
1999. The management of the Company has filed
the necessary applications with the appropriate
authority for condonation of such delays to
regularize the default. Pending condonation
of such delay by the appropriate authority,
management is of the view that the possible
penalties that may be levied are currently
unascertainable but would not be material and
accordingly, no consequential adjustments have
been made to the accompanying statement with
respect to such delay/default.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the
above.
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. We
have determined that there are no matters to be
described as key audit matters.
5. INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE
STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AND AUDITOR''S REPORT THEREON
A. The Company''s Board of Directors is
responsible for the preparation of the
other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the
Management Discussion and Analysis,
Board''s Report including Annexure to
Board''s Report, Corporate Governance
and Shareholder''s Information to the
extent applicable, but does not include
the Standalone Financial Statements and
our auditor''s report thereon. Our opinion
on the standalone financial statements
does not over the other information and
we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
B. 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 Standalone Financial Statements
or our knowledge obtained during the
course of our audit or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated. If, based on the
work we have performed, we conclude
that there is material misstatement of
this other information; we are required
to report that fact. We have nothing to
report in this regard.
6. MANAGEMENT''S RESPONSIBILITY
FOR THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
A. The Company''s 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 Statements that
give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance, total
comprehensive income, changes in
equity and cash flows 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 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.
B. In preparing the Standalone Financial
Statements, management is responsible
for assessing the Company''s 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 dose.
The Board of Directors is responsible
for overseeing the Company''s financial
reporting process.
7. AUDITOR''S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
A. 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 auditor''s 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.
B. As part of an audit in accordance with
SAs, we exercise professional judgment
and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit we also :
(i) 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.
(ii) Obtain an understanding of
internal financial controls 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.
(iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures
made by management.
(iv) Conclude on the appropriateness
of management''s 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
Company''s ability to continue as a
going concern. If we conclude that
a material uncertainty exists, we
are required to draw attention in
our auditor''s 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 auditor''s report. However,
future events or conditions may
cause the Company to cease to
continue as a going concern.
(v) 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.
C. Materiality is the magnitude of
misstatements in the Standalone
Financial Statements that, individually
Orin aggregate, makes it probable that
the economic decisions of a reasonably
knowledgeable user of the Standalone
Financial Statements maybe influenced.
We consider quantitative materiality
and qualitative factors in (i) planning the
scope of our audit work and in evaluating
the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate
the effect of any identified misstatements
in the Standalone Financial Statements.
D. 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.
E. 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.
F. 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 auditor''s 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.
1. As required by Section 143(3) of the Act,
based on our audit report we report that:
A. We have sought and obtained all
the information and explanations
which to the best of our knowledge
and belief were necessary for the
purposes of our audit.
B. In our opinion, proper books of
account as required by law relating
to preparation of the aforesaid
financial statements have been
kept by the Company so far as it
appears from our examination of
those books.

of Profit and Loss including
Other Comprehensive Income,
Statement of Changes in Equity
and the Statement of Cash Flows

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above.
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. We have determined that there are no matters to be described as key audit matters.
A. The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexure to Board''s Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information to the extent applicable, but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and
our auditor''s report thereon. Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not over the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
B. 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 Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
A. The Company''s 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 Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows 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 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.
B. In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company''s 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 dose.
C. The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
A. 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 auditor''s 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.
B. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit we also :
(i) 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.
(ii) Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls 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.
(iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
(iv) Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s 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 Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s 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 auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
(v) 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.
C. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements that, individually Orin aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone Financial Statements maybe influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements.
D. 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.
E. 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.
F. 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 auditor''s 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.
1. As required by Section 143(3) of the Act, based on our audit report we report that:
A. We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit.
