(including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement
of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other

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 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, 2025, and its profit, total comprehensive
income, the changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
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 Auditor''s
Responsibility 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 (ICAI) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of
the 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 obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion on the 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. We have determined that
there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
⢠The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for 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, Corporate Governance and
Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the Financial statements and our auditor''s
report thereon. These reports comprising other information are expected to be made available
to us after the date of this auditor''s report.
⢠Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and will 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 identified above when it becomes available 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.
⢠When we read the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including Annexures
to Board''s Report, Corporate Governance, and Shareholder''s Information, if we conclude
that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to
those charged with governance as required under SA 720 ''The Auditor''s responsibilities
Relating to Other 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 Act
with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the
financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows and
changes in equity 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 financial statement that give a true and fair view and are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors 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.
Auditor''s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
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 the 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 skepticism 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 financial 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 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 the 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.
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.

Managementâs Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of thesefinancial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether thefinancial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditorâs 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 thesefinancial 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 thefinancial 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 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 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 the management.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of managementâs 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 Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs report to the related disclosures in thefinancial 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 auditorâs 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 thefinancial statements, including the disclosures, and whether thefinancial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in thefinancial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of thefinancial 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 thefinancial 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.

MIDWEST GOLD LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss and the Cash
Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant

Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated

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

that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit

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

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.

policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made
by Company's Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation

appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone
