Mar 31, 2024
1. We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Crane Infrastructure Limited (the
âCompanyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2024, the Statement of Profit and
Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of
Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies
and other explanatory information.
2. 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 Companies Act, 2013
(the âActâ) 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 (âInd ASâ) specified
under Section 133 of the Act, of the state of affairs (financial position) of the Company as at 31
March 2024, and its profit (financial performance including other comprehensive income), its
cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section
143(10) ofthe Act. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditorâs
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 (âICAIâ) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our
audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the 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 opinion.
4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, 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.
5. We have determined there are no key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report thereon
6. The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include the financial
statements and our auditorâs report thereon.
7. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
8. 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 in the audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated. 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.
9. The Companyâs Board of Directors is 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 state of affairs (financial position), profit or loss (financial performance including other
comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS 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 statements that give a true and fair view and are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
10. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Companyâs
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.
11. Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting
process.
12. 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 auditorâs
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 Standards on Auditing 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.
13. As part of an audit in accordance with Standards on Auditing, 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 Act, we
are also responsible for explaining 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 management.
d. Conclude on the appropriatene ss of managementâs 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 Companyâs ability to continue as
a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw
attention in our auditorâs 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 auditorâs 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.
f. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or
in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable
user of the financial statements may be 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 financial
statements.
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. 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 auditorâs 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.
17. As required by the Companies (Auditorâs Report) Order, 2020 (the âOrderâ) issued by the Central
Government of India in terms of Section 143(11) of the Act, we give in the Annexure A, a statement
on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order.
18. Further to our comments in Annexure A, as required by Section 143(3) of the Act, we report that:

entity (âIntermediariesâ), with the understanding, whether recorded in writing or
otherwise, that the Intermediary shall, whether, directly or indirectly lend or invest in
other persons or entities identified in any manner whatsoever by or on behalf of the
Company (âUltimate Beneficiariesâ) or provide any guarantee, security or the like on

the representations under sub-clause (i) and (ii) of Rule 11(e), as provided under (a) and
(b) above, contain any material misstatement.
v. No dividend was declared or paid during the year by the Company, hence, the provisions

come across any instance of audit trail feature being tampered with.

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of
Crane Infrastructure Limited, which comprise the Balance Sheet as at
March 31, 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss, and the Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of the significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated
in sub-section 5 of Section 134 of the Companies Act, 2013 with respect
to the preparation of these standalone 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, read with Rule 7 of the
Companies(Accounts) Rules, 2014. 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
AUDITORS' RESPONSIBILITY
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone
financial statements based on our audit.
We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting
and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in
the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made
there under.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
specified under sub-section 10 of Section 143 of the Act. Those
Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and the disclosures in the financial statements. 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. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant
to the Company's preparation of the financial statements that give a
true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal
financial controls system over financial reporting and the operating
effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness
of the accounting estimates made by the Company's Directors, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
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.
