ENGINEERING COMPANY LTD
("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,

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").

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, 2024, the Loss and total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

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 standalone financial statements
under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, 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.

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 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 do not consider any
matter to be key audit matter to be communicated in our report for the year under audit.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon

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 Annexures to Board''s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate
Governance and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the standalone financial statements
and our auditor''s 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 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 a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Management''s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements

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.

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 do so.

The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor''s 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
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.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism 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 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.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• 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.

• 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.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone 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.

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 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.
