We have audited the accompanying Standalone financial
statements of Talbros Automotive Components Limited (âthe
Companyâ), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March
31, 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other
comprehensive income), the Statement of Changes in Equity
and the Statement for Cash Flows for the year ended on that
date, and notes to the financial statement including a summary
of material accounting policies and other explanatory
information (hereinafter referred to as the âstandalone 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 the
affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, its profit and total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows
for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of standalone financial statements
in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified
under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under
those Standards are further described in the Auditorâs
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
section of our report. We are independent of the Company
in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute
of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the
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
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 matter described below to
be the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.
Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements
and Auditorâs Report Thereon
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the
preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Management
Discussion and Analysis, Boardâs Report including Annexures
to Boardâs Report, Corporate Governance and Corporate
Information, but does not include the standalone financial
statements and our auditorâs 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 during the course of
our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that
there is a material misstatement in this other information, we
are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in
this regard.

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, cash flows and
changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the Ind
AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the provisions of
the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and
for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities;
selection and application of appropriate accounting policies;
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and
prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of
adequate internal financial controls, that were operating
effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of
the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and
presentation of the 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, the Board of
Directors and management are 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 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 economic
decision of users taken on the basis of these standalone
financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
profession al judg ment and main tain 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 to obtain audit evidence
that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from
error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional
omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to
the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)
(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing
our opinion on whether the company has an 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 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.
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 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 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 during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement in this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these Standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the 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, the Board of Directors and management are 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 responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of Standalone Financial Statements
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 economic decision of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise profession al judg ment and main tain 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 to obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)
(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an 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 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.
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 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.

A company''s internal financial controls system 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 disposition 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 the generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and the expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
(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 limitation of internal financial controls over financial reporting
Because of the Inherent limitation of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collation 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 of the internal financial controls 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 over financial reporting and such of the internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal financial controls over financial reporting criteria established by the company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the guidance Note on Audit of the internal financial controls over financial reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountant of India.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about

in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. 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.

explanations given to us, the financial statements give the information
required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair
