comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,2025, the Statement
of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive loss), the
Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows
for the year ended on that date, and notes to financial statements,
including a summary of the significant accounting policies and
other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as âthe
Standalone Financial Statementsâ).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to
the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Standalone Financial
Statements give the information required by the Companies Act,
2013 (âthe 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 the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, (âInd
ASâ) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India,
of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,2025, the
profit and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its
cash flows for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in
accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under
section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those
Standards are further described in the Auditorâs Responsibilities
for the Audit of the Standalone 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 independence
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone
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
ICAIâs Code of Ethics. 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.
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 financial year. 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 matter described below to be the
key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the other
information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Boardâs Report including Annexures to Boardâs
report but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements
and our auditorâs report thereon. The Boardâs Report including
Annexures to Boardâs Report is expected to be made available to
us after the date of this auditorâs report
Our opinion on the Standalone 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 Standalone 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 Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated.
When we read the Boardâs Report including Annexures to Boardâs
Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement
therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those
charged with governance and describe actions applicable in the
applicable laws and regulations.
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters
stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of
these Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair
view of the financial position, financial performance, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the
Company in accordance with the other 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 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 Standalone Financial Statements that give a
true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, management
is responsible for assessing the Companyâs 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 is also responsible for overseeing the
Companyâs financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the Standalone Financial 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
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
Standalone 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 controls 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 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 the Standalone 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
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 the
Standalone Financial Statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the Standalone 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 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 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 Standalone Financial Statements of
the current financial year and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditorâs 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.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Standalone Financial Statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe 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 the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, (âInd ASâ) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,2024, the profit and 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 Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone 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 ICAIâs Code of Ethics. 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.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to note 62 to the Standalone Financial Statements regarding classification of Assets, Liabilities, Revenue, Expenses and Cash Flows of Petrochemical business of Khopoli and Packaging business of Goa and Khordha, as held for sale in accordance with Ind AS 105 "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations" subject to approvals, consents, permissions and sanctions as may be deemed necessary.
Key Audit Matter

We have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the key audit matter |
|
Evaluation of Provision and Contingent Liabilities : As at the balance sheet date, the Company has open litigations and other contingent liabilities as disclosed in note 46 & 65. The assessment of the existence of the present legal or constructive obligation, analysis of the probability or possibility of the related payment requires the management to make judgement and estimates in relation to the issues of each matter. The management have made judgements and estimates relating to the likelihood of an obligation arising and whether there is a need to recognize a provision or disclose a contingent liability. Due to the level of judgement relating to recognition, valuation and presentation of provision and contingent liabilities, this is considered to be a key audit matter. |
We have reviewed and held discussions with the management to understand their processes to identify new possible obligations and changes in existing obligations for compliance with the requirements of Ind AS 37 on Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. We have also discussed with the management significant changes from prior periods and obtained a detailed understanding of these items and assumptions applied. We have held regular meetings with the management and key legal personnel responsible for handling legal matters. In addition, we have reviewed: ⢠the details of the proceedings before the relevant authorities including communication from the advocates / experts; ⢠status of each of the material matters as on the date of the balance sheet. We have assessed the appropriateness of provisioning based on assumptions made by the management and presentation of the significant contingent liabilities in the financial statements. |

The Companyâs 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 standalone Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs (financial position), profit or loss (financial performance including other comprehensive income), cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under section 133 of the Act.

ANNEXURE B TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORSâ REPORT OF EVEN DATE ONTHE STANDALONE IND AS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ORICON ENTERPRISES LIMITED
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 ORICON ENTERPRISES LIMITED (âthe Companyâ) as of March 31, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managementâs Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Companyâs 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 (ICAI). 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, 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 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 standalone Ind AS 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 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 standalone Ind AS 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 standalone Ind AS 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, 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, 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.

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 ORICON ENTERPRISES LIMITED (âthe Companyâ) as of March 31, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managementâs Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Companyâs 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. 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 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 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, 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 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 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 Companyâs internal financial controls 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 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 company''s 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.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ORICON
ENTERPRISES LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2014, and 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 Statement
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 Accounting Standards referred to in Sub- Section (3C) of Section
211 of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act") read with the General
Circular 15/2013 dated September 13, 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate
Affairs in respect of Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and in
accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India.
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 misstatement.
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 the 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.
