We have audited the accompanying Ind
AS financial statements of KSE Limited
(CIN:L15331KL1963PLC002028) ("the Companyâ),
st
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31
March, 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss
(including Other Comprehensive Income), the
Statement of changes in Equity and the Statement
of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the Ind AS financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information (hereinafter referred
to as "Ind AS financial statementsâ) which we have
signed under reference to this report.
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
(the "Actâ) 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 Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as amended
("Ind ASâ) and other accounting principles
generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs
of the Company as at 31st March 2025, its profit,
total comprehensive income, the changes in equity
and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
section 143(10) of the Act. 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 Act and the Rules there under, 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 on the Ind AS
financial statements.
We draw attention to the matters detailed below.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these
matters.
a. Note No.21.2 in the Ind AS financial statements:
As stated in the note, the classification of trade
payables as covered under the Micro, Small&
Medium Enterprises, Development (MSMED)
Act 2006 and others, is as carried out by the
company based on the information available
with it.
b. Note No.34.9 in the Ind AS financial statements
:The company has stated in this note that it
has a system of obtaining confirmations of
balances. However, balances in the accounts,
except balances with banks and a few trade
receivables are subject to confirmation.
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.
The Company''s key financial accounting and
reporting processes are highly dependent on
information systems including automated controls
in systems, such that there exists a risk that gaps
in the IT control environment could result in the
financial accounting and reporting records being
misstated. The company is using an ERP Solution
developed in house and it has yet to be evolved
into a full fledged end to end solution, while the
system is handling large transaction volumes
at multiple locations. During the year company
conducted Information Systems audit through
qualified professionals and the risks identified
were mitigated to a large extent. Some of the risks
identified are getting addressed by the company.
So the ''IT systems and controls'' continues to be
as key audit matter.
We focused on the unresolved risk areas identified
in the information system audit and on system
reconciliation controls and system application
controls over key financial accounting and
reporting systems.
We tested a sample of key controls operating over
the information technology in relation to financial
accounting and reporting systems, design and
operating effectiveness of key controls over user
access management and preventive controls
designed to enforce segregation of duties. For
a selected group of key controls over financial
and reporting systems, we independently
performed procedures to determine that these
controls remained unchanged during the year
or were changed following the standard change
management process and are not affected by the
identified unresolved risks.
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible
for the other information. The other information
comprises the Directors Report including the
annexures to Directors'' Report, Secretarial audit
Report, Management Discussion & Analysis Report
and Corporate Governance Report included in
the Annual report but does not include the Ind
AS financial statements and our auditor''s report
thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be
made available to us after the date of this auditor''s
report.
Our opinion on the Ind AS financial statements
does not cover the other information and we will
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 audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.
When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude
that there is a material misstatement therein, we
are required to communicate the matter to those
charged with governance.
Responsibilities of Management And Those
Charged With Governance For The Ind AS
Financial Statements
The Company''s Management and Board of
Directors are responsible for the matters stated
in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the
preparation of these Ind AS financial statements
that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance including other
comprehensive income, cash flows and change
in equity of the Company in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS)
specified under section 133 of the Act read with
the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2015, as amended. 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 the design, implementation and maintenance
of adequate internal financial control that were
operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, relevant
to the preparation and presentation of the 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 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.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for
overseeing the Company''s financial reporting
process.
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
Act, we are also responsible for expressing our
opinion on whether the Company has adequate
internal financial controls with reference to the
financial statement 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 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.
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 year
ended 31st March 2025 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.

information and explanations which to the

ANNEXURE âBâ TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORSâ REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph 2(f) under âReport on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirementsâ section of our report to the members of KSE Limited of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ)
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of M/s KSE Limited (CIN:L15331KL1963PLC002028) (âthe Companyâ) as of 31st March, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managementâs Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Board of Directors of the Company 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. 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 companyâs 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.
Auditorsâ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companyâs 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 âGuidance Noteâ) 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. 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 controls 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 auditorâs judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. We have also considered the fact that all the units of the company are subject to internal audit by external firms of Chartered Accountants and we are informed that the points arising in internal audit are being duly dealt with by the management.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companyâs internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
A companyâs 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 companyâs 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 transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companyâs assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of 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
In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at 31st March, 2018, 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.

A companyâs 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 transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations 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 companyâs assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting
Because of the inherent limitations of 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
In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, 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.

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

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
