Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the

summary of material accounting policies and other
explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as
“standalone Ind AS financial statements”) for the year
ended on that date.

In our opinion and to the best of our information
and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid standalone 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

the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended (“Ind AS”) and
other accounting principles generally accepted in India,
of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31,
2025, its loss, total comprehensive loss, changes in
equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that
date.

2. Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit 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 standalone
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 standalone 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 ICAI''s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion on the standalone Ind
AS financial statements.

3. Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 33.6 to the standalone Ind
AS financial statements for the year ended 31st March
2025, which describes the details of search operation
carried out during the earlier year and demand raised
in connection with the same by the GST Department
on the Company during the year and the issues arising
therefrom.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

4. Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements of
the current period. These matters were addressed in the
context of our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial
statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion
thereon, 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

Auditor''s Response

1.

Valuation & amortization estimate of inventory of
copyrights -

The copyrights are stated at cost/ carrying cost or
realizable value whichever is lower. The Company
evaluates the realizable value and revenue potential
of respective rights based on management estimate of
market condition & demand of those respective rights.
An accelerated impairment is considered if needed.

We have considered this as key audit matter due
to the amount of inventory balance and company''s
assessment of the fair value considering dynamic
market conditions. This assessment involves
judgements about future predictions of business and
cash flows.

Our procedures consisted of evaluating management''s
methodology & key assumptions and included following
audit procedures -

Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to
review of inventory impairment testing performed by
management.

Designed & performed audit procedures with respect to
impairment testing workings including the assumptions
and estimates used in evaluation of carrying values of
assets where there is an indication of impairment.

Assessing the appropriateness of any changes to
assumptions since the prior period.

2.

Recognition of Revenue

The recognition of revenue from Advertisement,
Subscription and syndication of content has been
considered to be critical since the Company has
entered into multiple complex contracts with its
customers. Apart from the contractual agreements
as entered, the Company recognised revenue based
on the logs/ information as received from such
customers.

The complexity of these contractual terms also
requires the Company to make judgements in
assessing fulfillment of its obligations under the
contracts to recognise the revenue in line with the
accounting policy adopted and Indian accounting
standard 115.

Considered the revenue recognition policies of the
Company in respect of those contracts and assessed
the consistent application of these policies in light of
the requirements of relevant accounting standards.

Tested the transactions closer to the year end to check
the recognition of revenue in the correct period.

Performed substantive procedures with regard to
revenue from Advertisement, Subscription and
syndication of content by agreeing to third party
information, logs received from the customers and
other relevant information on sample basis.

5. Information other than the standalone Ind AS financial
statements and Auditor’s report thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for
the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the
Annual Report, but does not include the standalone
Ind AS financial statements and our Auditor''s Report
thereon. The Directors Report & Annual Report is
expected to be made available to us after the date of
our audit report.

Our opinion on the standalone 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 standalone Ind AS
financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether
other information is materially inconsistent with
the standalone Ind AS Financial Statements or our
knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information included in the
above reports, if we conclude that there is material
misstatement therein, we are required to communicate
the matter to those charged with governance and
determine the actions under the applicable laws and
regulations.

6. 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, total comprehensive loss, changes in

equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted
in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards
specified under section 133 of the Act read with the
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, as
amended.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of
adequate accounting records in accordance with the
provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of
the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds
and other irregularities; selection and application
of appropriate implementation and maintenance of
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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS Financial
Statements, Board of Directors is responsible for
assessing the Company''s ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related
to going concern and using the going concern basis
of accounting unless management either intends to
liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no
realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for
overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

7. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the
standalone Ind AS financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the standalone 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
standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Standards
on auditing, we exercise professional judgment and
maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the standalone Ind AS Financial
Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design
and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal 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 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 Ind AS Financial Statements or, if
such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit
evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s
report. However, future events or conditions may
cause the Company to cease to continue as a going
concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure
and content of the standalone Ind AS Financial
Statements, including the disclosures, and whether

the standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
represent the underlying transactions and events
in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
and timing of the audit and significant audit findings,
including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with
a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and
to communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged
with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of standalone
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.

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Shemaroo Entertainment Limited (“the Company”) as at 31st March, 2018 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone 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 of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the ‘Guidance Note’) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the ‘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 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.

Auditor’s 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 and the Standards on Auditing, issued by the 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 ICAI. 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.

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 31st March, 2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note issued by the ICAI.
