We have audited the financial statements of Gujarat
Terce Laboratories Limited (âthe Companyâ), which
comprise the balance sheet as on 31st March
2025, and the statement of Profit and Loss and
statement of cash flows for the year then ended,
and notes to the financial statements, including
a summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information.
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 Act in the manner
so required and give a true and fair view in
conformity with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs
of the Company as at 31st March, 2025, its losses
and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
We have conducted our audit in accordance with
the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor''s 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
together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the financial statements
under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013
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.
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 the matters
described below to be the key audit matters to
be communicated in our report:
⢠In January 2018, the Board of Directors of
the company had decided to discontinue
the operations of the Metal Division,
which had already been suspended by the
management for some years. From the
financial year ending on 31st March 2018,
the Metal Division has been classified as
Discontinued Operations. At the time of
such classification, the recoverable value of
items of property, plant and equipment was
estimated based on the report of a registered
valuer. For the financial year ended on 31st
March 2025, no financial transactions or
impairment losses have been identified for
the said division.
⢠The Income Tax Department had made
additions to the income of the company on
various grounds for the financial years 2010¬
11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14, against
which, the company had preferred appeals
before the Commissioner of Income Tax
(Appeals) during the respective periods in
which the matters were decided. The appeals
were disposed of by the Commissioner
with a reduction in demands, which were
duly paid by the company against the
appeal orders. However, in respect of those
matters, the Income Tax Department had
preferred further appeals before the Income
Tax Appellate Tribunal, Ahmedabad, and the
matters were decided by the Hon. Tribunal
against the company. The company had filed
a Miscellaneous Application for rectification
of the said orders which was decided by the
Hon. Tribunal against the company. Against
the said orders, the company had filed a
petition before Hon. Gujarat High court.
During the year under audit, the Income Tax
Department had launched a dispute resolution
scheme, viz. the Direct Tax Vivaad se Vishwas
scheme. The company has opted for settlement
of pending disputes under this scheme and filed
an application for the same in Form 1 as per the
scheme. The company is awaiting the certificate
in Form 2 from the Income Tax Department.
As per the declaration in the said Form 1, the
company has provided ''341.71 lakh as tax item.
The Company''s board of directors is responsible
for the preparation of the other information. The
other information comprises the information
included in the Board''s Report including
Annexures to Board''s Report but does not
include the financial statements and our auditor''s
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
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.
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 Standalone
Financial Statements
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible
for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the
Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ) 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 Indian Accounting Standards specified under
section 133 of the Act read with Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015.
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.
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.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible
for overseeing the Company''s financial
reporting process.
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 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
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken
on the basis of these 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 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
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 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 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 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.

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)

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

whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. 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 misstatements. An audit involves performing procedures to
obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's
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
control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of
the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
the accounting estimates made by management, 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
Opinion

explanations given to us, the aforesaid 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:

Laboratories Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2014, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow
Statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for 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 AccountingStandards notified under the Companies Act 1956 ("the
Act") read with the General Circular 15/2013 dated 13th September 2013
of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of Section 133 of The
Companies Act, 2013. This responsibility includes the design,
implementation and maintenance of internal control 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 financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. 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 misstatements.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor''s 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 control relevant to the
Company''s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of Company''s internal control. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, 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.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
Balances of trade & other payables are subject to confirmation,
reconciliation and consequential adjustments thereof. The company is
not having any system of obtaining balance confirmation in respect of
trade and other payables. In the absence of sufficient and appropriate
audit evidence, the impact on profit or loss for the year and on the
carrying value of these balances is not ascertainable.
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter
described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the 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
