We have audited the accompanying Ind-AS financial

known as NPL Chemicals Limited) ("the Company”),
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,
2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other

Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended
and the Notes to the Ind-AS financial statements, including
a summary of material accounting policies and other

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 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
Standard) Rules, 2015, as amended, (Ind-AS) and with other
accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, the
loss, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its
cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Ind-AS financial statements
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
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.

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.

Key Audit Matter	How the matter was addressed in our audit
Revenue Recognition Revenue is one of the key profit indicators and is susceptible to misstatement. We have considered cut-off as the key assertion insofar as revenue recognition is concerned since an inappropriate cut-off could lead to a material misstatement of the results for the year.	Our audit procedures included: • Assessing the appropriateness of the revenue recognition accounting policies.
Refer to Notes 2(b)(iii) and 25 in the Ind-AS financial statements.	• Testing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the controls with respect to dispatches/ deliveries. • Inventory reconciliations and circularisation of receivable balances. • Testing cut-offs by verifying the underlying documents, which include sales invoices, contracts, shipping documents and proof of deliveries where applicable.

Information Other than the Ind-AS 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 in the Annual Report, namely Management
Discussion and Analysis, and Director''s Report, including
annexure to the Director''s report, etc., but does not include
the Ind-AS financial statements and our auditor''s report
thereon. The other information 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 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 identified above when it becomes available
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 other information, if we conclude that
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance
and review the steps taken by the Management to
communicate with those in receipt of the other information,
if previously issued, to inform them of the revision.

Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Ind-AS 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 Ind-AS financial statements that
give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, changes in equity and the 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 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, 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 Board of Directors 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 Responsibilities 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 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 with
reference to the financial statements 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.

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.

• 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 financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of the users of the 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 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.
