We have audited the Ind AS Financial Statements of Ind Bank Housing Limited (âthe Companyâ), which comprise the Balance
Sheet as at 31st March 2025 and the Statement of Profit and Loss, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows
for the period then ended, and notes to the Ind AS 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 Ind AS Financial
Statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 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, and loss, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
2. Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies
Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 13 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of Rs. 30,70,632
during the year ended March 31,2025. Also, as stated in Note No. 21(b), these events or conditions, along with other matters as
set forth in Note No. 21(o)(xiii), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company''s
ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
3. Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Ind AS
Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Ind AS 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.
âRBI vide letter no CO.DoR.RG.No. S3544/23-27-014/2023-24 dated 22.09.2023 cancelled the NHB licence w.e.f
21.09.2023 and the Management surrendered the original Certificate of Registration (CoR) to RBI, Chennai Regional
Office on 27.09.2023. In furtherance to this the Board of Directors of the company had given in-principle approval for
winding up of the company under section 271 of the Companies Act 2013 subject to the Shareholders and Other Regulatory
approvals.â
4. Information other than Ind AS Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report thereon
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Board''s report, including Annexure to Board''s Report, but does not include the Ind AS Financial Statements and
our auditor''s report thereon. Our opinion on the Ind AS 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 Ind AS Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Ind AS Financial Statements or our knowledge
obtained in 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.
5. Responsibilities of Management for Standalone Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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. 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 statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the Ind AS 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.
6. Auditorâs Responsibility for the Audit of the Ind AS Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS 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 Ind
AS Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout
the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Ind AS 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 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 auditors'' report to the related disclosures in the Ind AS 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 Ind AS Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the Ind AS Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.
⢠Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone Ind AS
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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR''S REPORT

The Members of Ind Bank Housing Limited
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Ind Bank Housing Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2018, the Statement of Profit and Loss and the 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
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 and presentation 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 Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2016.
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 applicable 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.
Auditor''s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 thereunder.
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 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 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. 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 preparation 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 be the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial statements give a true and view in conformity with Ind AS and accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2018, its profit and total comprehensive income for the year ended on that date, changes in equity and its cash flow for the year ended on the date.

ANNEXURE-C
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013("the Act")
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Ind Bank housing Limited ("the Company") as of 31 March 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India fICAI''l. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. 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.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial control system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting A Company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A Company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statement in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with the authorisations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitation of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of the internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion
According to the information and explanation given to us, the Company has not established its internal financial control over financial reporting on criteria based on or considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over financial reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
More over it is informed that the Company''s incurring expenses only for its day to day operations after obtaining approval from the Managing Director such as Salary and other Statutory Expenses as it is engaged only in recovery of existing housing loans. Control over its financial transaction are commensurate with its level of operations.
In our opinion, the fundamental requirement of effective internal control is a process effected by people that support the organisation in several ways, enabling it to provide reasonable assurance regarding risk and to assist in the achievement of objectives. The Company, being smaller, less complex and have less formal documentation regarding the operation of its controls. However we applied testing controls through inquiry combined with other procedures such as observation of activities, inspection of less formal documentation, or performance of central controls to provide sufficient evidence about whether the control is effective.
We believe that that Audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our Audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
We have considered the disclaimer reported above in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company, and the disclaimer does not affect our opinion on the standalone financial statements of the Company,
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial control system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March 2018,
