We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements
of R.P.P INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise
the Standalone Balance sheet as at 31st March 2025, the Standalone

Income), the Standalone Statement of Changes in Equity and the
Standalone Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that
date, and a summary of material accounting policies and other
explanatory information, which includes two branches and Thirteen
jointly controlled operations
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according

2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair
view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed

We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in

of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules made there under, 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 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 period. 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 matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

The Company''s management and Board of Directors are responsible
for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Company''s Boards Report, Director''s
report, Management discussion and analysis, but does not include
the standalone financial statements , the consolidated financial
statements and our auditors'' report thereon.
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 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. Based
on the work we have performed, We have nothing to report in this
regard.
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible
for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013
("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, changes in equity and cash flows
of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS 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 standalone financial statement 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 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 standalone 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 standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the
audit. we also:
⢠I dentify 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 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 and Board of Directors.
⢠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 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 audit
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 standalone 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
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 period and are therefore the key audit matters. we
describe these matters in our auditors''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.
We did not audit the standalone financial statements of Two
branches operations included in the standalone financial results
of the Company, whose results reflect total revenues of Rs. 1.70
Crore and Rs.(13.93) Crore net profit/(Loss) after tax and total

TO THE MEMBERS OF R.P.P. INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
I have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of R.P.P INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance sheet as at 31st March 2024, 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 ended on that date, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, which includes two branches and thirteen joint ventures fully controlled by the Company.
In my opinion and to the best of my information and according to the explanations given to me, the aforesaid standalone 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 ("Ind AS") 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 it''s cash flows for the year ended on that date.
I conducted my audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA"s) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. My responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of my report.
I am 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 my audit of the Standalone Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there under, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. I believe that the audit evidence obtained by me is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion on the Standalone Financial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the Standalone Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

? Assessed the appropriateness of work in progress (contract assets) in balance sheet by evaluating the underlying documentation to identify possible delays in achieving milestones which may require change in estimated costs to complete the remaining performance obligations. |

Measurement of contract assets in respect of overdue milestones and receivables in respect of overdue invoices The Company, in its contract with customers, promises to transfer distinct services to its customers, which may be rendered in the form of engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services through design-build contracts, and other forms of construction contracts. The recognition of revenue is based on contractual terms, which could be based on agreed unit price or lump-sum revenue arrangements. At each reporting date, revenue is accrued for costs incurred against work performed that may not have been invoiced. Identifying whether the Company''s performance has resulted in a service that would be billable and collectable where the works carried out have not been acknowledged by customers as of the reporting date, involves a significant amount ofjudgment. Assessing the recoverability of contract assets related to overdue milestones and amounts overdue against invoices raised which have remained unsettled for a significantly long period after the end of the contractual credit period also involves a significant amount of judgment. Refer to Note No. 2.14(i)and Note No.27 of the standalone financial statements |
The procedures performed included the following: ⢠obtained an understanding of the Company''s processes in collating the evidence supporting execution of work for each disaggregated type of revenue; ⢠obtained an understanding of the Company''s processes in assessing the recoverability of amounts overdue and process over estimating the expected credit loss allowance; ⢠tested the design and operating effectiveness of the key controls over the completeness and accuracy of the key inputs and assumptions into the provisioning model; ⢠evaluated controls over authorisation and calculation of provisioning model; ⢠evaluated the delivery and collection history of customers against whose contracts un-invoiced revenue is recognised; ⢠verified for the sample selected, receipts post balance sheet date upto the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company; ⢠performed an overall assessment of the expected credit loss provision to determine if they were reasonable considering the Company''s portfolio, risk profile, credit risk management practices and the macroeconomic environment; and ⢠tested the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial statements to ensure compliance with Ind AS 115 |
|

Claims and exposures relating to taxation and litigation The Group is subject to a large number of tax and legal disputes, which have been disclosed / provided for in the financial statements based on the facts and circumstances of each case. Taxation and litigation exposures have been identified as a key audit matter due to the complexities involved in these matters, timescales involved for resolution and the potential financial impact of these on the financial statements. Further, significant management judgement is involved in assessing the exposure of each case and thus a risk that such cases may not be adequately provided for or disclosed. (Refer Note No. 40, Note no. 12.1 of the consolidated financial statements) |
My Audit procedures included the following; ⢠Gained an understanding of the process of identification of claims, litigations and contingent liabilities and identified key controls in the process. ⢠For selected controls I have performed tests of controls. ⢠Obtained the summary of Group''s legal and tax cases and critically assessed management''s position through discussions with the Legal Counsel, on both the probability of success in significant cases, and the magnitude of any potential loss. ⢠Examined external legal opinions (where considered necessary) and other evidence to corroborate management''s assessment of the risk profile in respect of legal claims. ⢠Assessed the relevant disclosures made within the financial statements to address whether they reflect the facts and circumstances of the respective tax and legal exposures and the requirements of relevant accounting standards. ⢠Assessed the competence and objectivity of the Group''s experts, to satisfy ourselves that these parties are suitable in their roles. |

I have determined that there are no other Key Audit Matters to communicate in my 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, Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder''s Information, , but does not include the Consolidated Financial Statements, Standalone Financial Statements and my auditors'' report thereon.
My opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the other information and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with my audit of the standalone financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or my knowledge obtained during the course of my audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work I have performed, I conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, I am required to report that fact. I have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("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, (changes in equity) and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS 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 Standalone Financial Statement 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 and 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Company''s Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
My objective is 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 auditor''s report that includes my 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 Standalone Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also:
⢠I dentify 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 my 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(3X0 of the Act, I am also responsible for expressing my 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 and Board of Directors.
⢠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 I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my audit 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 Standalone Financial Statements may be influenced. I consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of my audit work and in evaluating the results of my work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements
I 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 I identify during my audit.
I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I 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 my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I 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. I describe these matters in my auditors'' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
I did not audit the financial statements of Two branches and thirteen jointly ventures fully controlled by the company, included in the standalone financial results of the Company, whose results reflect total assets of Rs. 175.85 Crore as at 31st March, 2024 and total revenues of Rs. 557.62 Crore and Rs.8.86 Crore, net profit/(Loss) after tax and total comprehensive income of Rs. 13.72 Crore for the year ended March 31st 2024, respectively and net cash flows amounting to Rs. 1.66 Crore for the year then ended. These branch financial statements have been audited by other Auditors whose reports and these JV''s financial statements have been audited by other Auditors whose reports have been furnished to me by the Management and my opinion on the standalone financial results, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these entities, is based solely on the report of such auditors and the procedures performed by me are as stated in paragraph above.
My opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Basis for Opinion
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
I have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of R.P.P INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance sheet as at 31st March 2023, and 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 a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, which includes two branches and Twelve jointly controlled operations
In my opinion and to the best of my information and according to the explanations given to me, the aforesaid standalone 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, 2023, the profit and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and it''s cash flows for the year ended on that date.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA"s) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. My responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report.
I am 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 my audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules made there under, and I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI''s Code of Ethics. I believe that the audit evidence obtained by me is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion on the standalone financial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of my audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming my opinion thereon, and I do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
I have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in my report.

Measurement of contract assets in respect of overdue milestones and receivables in respect of overdue invoices The Company, in its contract with customers, promises to transfer distinct services to its customers, which may be rendered in the form of engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services through design-build contracts, and other forms of construction contracts. The recognition of revenue is based on contractual terms, which could be based on agreed unit price or lump-sum revenue arrangements. At each reporting date, revenue is accrued for costs incurred against work performed that may not have been invoiced. Identifying whether the Company''s performance has resulted in a service that would be billable and collectable where the works carried out have not been acknowledged by customers as of the reporting date, involves a significant amount ofjudgment. Assessing the recoverability of contract assets related to overdue milestones and amounts overdue against invoices raised which have remained unsettled for a significantly long period after the end of the contractual credit period also involves a significant amount of judgment. Refer to Note No. 2.14(i) and Note No.27of the standalone financial statements |
The procedures performed included the following: ⢠obtained an understanding of the Company''s processes in collating the evidence supporting execution of work for each disaggregated type of revenue; ⢠obtained an understanding of the Company''s processes in assessing the recoverability of amounts overdue and process over estimating the expected credit loss allowance; ⢠tested the design and operating effectiveness of the key controls over the completeness and accuracy of the key inputs and assumptions into the provisioning model; ⢠evaluated controls over authorisation and calculation of provisioning model; ⢠evaluated the delivery and collection history of customers against whose contracts un-invoiced revenue is recognised; ⢠verified for the sample selected, receipts post balance sheet date upto the approval of the financial statements by the Board of Directors of the Parent Company; ⢠performed an overall assessment of the expected credit loss provision to determine if they were reasonable considering the Company''s portfolio, risk profile, credit risk management practices and the macroeconomic environment; and ⢠tested the appropriateness of the disclosures in the financial statements to ensure compliance with Ind AS 115 |

Claims and exposures relating to taxation and litigation The Group is subject to a considerable number of tax and legal disputes, which have been disclosed / provided for in the financial statements based on the facts and circumstances of each case. Taxation and litigation exposures have been identified as a key audit matter due to the complexities involved in these matters, timescales involved for resolution and the potential financial impact of these on the financial statements. Further, significant management judgement is involved in assessing the exposure of each case and thus a risk that such cases may not be adequately provided for or disclosed. (Refer Note No. 40, Note no. 12.1) |
My audit procedures included the following: ⢠Gained an understanding of the process of identification of claims, litigations and contingent liabilities and identified key controls in the process. ⢠For selected controls I have performed tests of controls. ⢠Obtained the summary of Group''s legal and tax cases and critically assessed management''s position through discussions with the Legal Counsel, on both the probability of success in significant cases, and the magnitude of any potential loss. ⢠Examined external legal opinions (where considered necessary) and other evidence to corroborate management''s assessment of the risk profile in respect of legal claims. ⢠Assessed the relevant disclosures made within the financial statements to address whether they reflect the facts and circumstances of the respective tax and legal exposures and the requirements of relevant accounting standards. ⢠Assessed the competence and objectivity of the Group''s experts, to satisfy ourselves that these parties are suitable in their roles. |
I have determined that there are no other Key Audit Matters to communicate in my report.
The Company''s management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company''s annual report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and my auditors'' report thereon.
My opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and I do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with my audit of the standalone financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or my knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. Based on the work I have performed, I have nothing to report in this regard.
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("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, (changes in equity) and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS 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 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.
My 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 my 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, I exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also:
⢠I dentify 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 my 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(3X0 of the Act, I am also responsible for expressing my 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 and Board of Directors.
⢠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 I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my audit 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 standalone financial statements may be influenced. I 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 financial statements
I 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 I identify during my audit.
I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I 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 my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, I 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.
I describe these matters in my auditors'' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
I did not audit the financial statements of Two branches and twelve jointly controlled operations included in the standalone financial results of the Company, whose results reflect total assets of Rs. 123.90 Crore as at 31st March, 2023 and total revenues of Rs. 395.95 Crore and Rs.(1.56) Crore, net profit/(Loss) after tax and total comprehensive income of Rs. Nil for the year ended March 31st 2023, respectively and net cash flows amounting to Rs.12.86 Crore for the year then ended. These branch financial statements have been audited by other Auditors whose reports and these JV''s financial statements have been audited by other Auditors whose reports have been furnished to me by the Management and my opinion on the standalone financial results, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these entities, is based solely on the report of such auditors and the procedures performed by me are as stated in paragraph above. The RPP HSEA JV, RPP INFRASTRUCTURE JV, RPP OPG JV though incorporated, business is yet to commence.
My opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
I invite attention to:
(a) Note No.40 which lists out the status of Income Tax Assessments of various years and also the year wise status of various notices received from Goods & Service Tax.
(b) Note No.40 where the Company has declared that the reconciliation of Input Tax Credit & GSTR 2A is under progress

Report on the Standalone Ind AS financial statements
We have audited the accompanying standalone Ind AS financial statements of M/S. R.P.P. INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED ("the company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March, 2018, the Statement of Profit and Loss including the statement of Other Comprehensive income, the Cash Flow Statement, the statement of changes in equity and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information for the year then ended which includes two branches ("standalone Ind AS financial statements").
Management''s Responsibility for the 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 ("the act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone Ind AS 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. 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; 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 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.
Auditors'' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone Ind AS 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 there under.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India as 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 but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity''s internal control. 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 presentation of the standalone Ind AS financial statements.
We are also responsible to 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 entity''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists we are required to draw attention in the auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify the opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause an entity to cease to continue as a going concern. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone Ind AS financial statements.
Opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except the financial statements of Srilanka and Bangladesh branches not audited by us, the aforesaid standalone Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Act 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 31 March 2018, of its profit including other comprehensive income, its cash flows and changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
Other Matter
We did not audit the financial statements of two branches included in the standalone quarterly financial results and year to date results, whose standalone financial statements reflect total assets of '' 22.57 crore as at 31 March 2018, total revenue of '' 8.27 crore as at 31 March 2018 and total profit after tax of '' 0.24 crore, whose unaudited financial statements and other unaudited information have been furnished to us. Our opinion on the statements, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of the two branches and our report in terms of subsection (3) and (11) of section 143 of the Act in so far as it relates to the aforesaid branches is based solely on such unaudited financial statements and other unaudited financial information. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Attention is invited to Note No: 32 regarding disclosure on search operation conducted on the Company during March 2016. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
1. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2016 (''the Order'') issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (11) of Section 143 of the Act, we give in the ''Annexure A'', a statement on the matters specified in the paragraph 3 and 4 of the order.

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 M/s. R.P.P. Infra Projects Limited as of 31 March 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone Ind AS 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 ofInternal 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 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. 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 auditor''s judgement, 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 controls system over financial reporting, except relating to the branches in Srilanka and Bangladesh.
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 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 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, to the best of the information and explanations given to us, except relating to the branches in Srilanka and Bangladesh for which we have neither audited nor received an Independent Auditor''s report on the same, 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 31 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.
