statements of D. S. Kulkarni Developers Limited (the Company), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March, 2024, the Statement of Profit
and Loss, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash
Flows for the year then ended, and summary of the material accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
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 (''Act) 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 (''Ind AS'') 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.
2. Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
("SA"s) specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 (the
"Act"). Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the
Auditor''s Responsibilities for Audit of the Standalone Financial Results
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 ethical requirements that are relevant to
our audit of the Standalone Financial Results 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 ICAI''s Code
of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
3. Management''s responsibility for the standalone Ind AS financial
statements
D. S. Kulkarni Developers Limited was under Corporate Insolvency Resolution
Process under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (the Code). Hon''ble NCLT
Mumbai vide its order dated June 23, 2023 approved the Resolution Plan
which was approved by the committee of creditors vide their meeting dated
August 2, 2021.
It is responsible of the Board for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the
Companies Act, 2013 (the Act) with respect to the preparation of these
standalone Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
state of affairs, profit/loss and other comprehensive income, changes in
equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting
Standards (Ind AS) prescribed 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 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true
and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud
or error.
In preparing the 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 of the company is also responsible for overseeing the
company''s financial reporting process.
4. Auditor''s responsibility
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 the audit in accordance with SAs, we exercised professional
judgment and maintained professional skepticism throughout the audit. We
also:
a. identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, designed and
performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtained
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. obtained 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) 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
c. evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made
by management.
d. considered the appropriateness of management''s use of the going
concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence
obtained, whether a material uncertainty exist related to events or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity''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 results 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 entity to cease to continue as a going concern or vice versa.
e. evaluated 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.
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 standalone
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 standalone 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.
Other Information
The Company''s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the
other information. The other information comprises the information included
in the Director''s report 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.
In connection with our audit of the financial, 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.

Management Responsibility for the standalone financial statements
The Company's 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 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
a) 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;
b) selection and application of appropriate accounting policies;
c) making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
d) 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

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
specified under Section 143(10) 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.
Opinion
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 Act in the manner so required and
give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India,
a) in the case of the standalone balance sheet, of the state of affairs
of the Company as at 31st March, 2015
b) in the case of the standalone statement of profit & loss, of the
profit of the Company for the year ended on that date.
c) in the case of the standalone cash flow statement, of the cash flows
of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
