in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025,
and its profit, other comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
II. Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (âSAâs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act.
Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s 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 (âICAIâ) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the
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 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 Financial Statements.
III. Key Audit Matters
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 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 matters to be communicated in our report.
Inventory Existence: We have performed the following procedures with respect to the

We focussed on this matter because of the: For locations attended we performed the following procedures:

of inventory items at the manufacturing locations. ⢠Made enquiries regarding obsolete inventory items and looked at
the condition of items counted.
⢠Evaluated the design and implementation of the controls over
physical verification of inventory and tested the operating
effectiveness of these controls during the interim periods.
There were no significant exceptions noted from these procedures.
We tested a sample of inventory items to assess whether they were
recorded at a value higher than that for which they could be sold. We
did not identify any exceptions.
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors is responsible for preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include the Financial Statements and our auditor''s report
thereon.
Our opinion on the 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 Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in
the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a
material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
V. Management''s and Board of Directors'' Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with
respect to the preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit/loss and other
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally
accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (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 Statements that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error which have been used for the preparation of financial
statements by the Directors of Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the Financial Statements, management and Board of Directors are 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 respective management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no
realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the company are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the
Company.
VI. Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements.
Our 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 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 Financial
Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout
the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and
perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal 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 with reference to financial statements in place and the
operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures in the Financial Statements made by the Management and Board of Directors.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of the Management''s and Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting
and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty
exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if
such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the
date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going
concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether
the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
⢠We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
⢠We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought
to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
⢠From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the 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.

Inventory Existence: The inventory''s carrying value in the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024 is Rs.1204.52 lakhs. The inventory of the Company is held across various locations including its Plants and Sales Depots.

We did not identify any exceptions. |

Our 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 our opinion.

⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures in the Financial Statements made by the Management and Board of Directors.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of the Management''s and Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor''s report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
⢠We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
⢠We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
⢠From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 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.

Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant

Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
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 notified under the Companies Act, 1956 ("the
Act") (which continue to be applicable in respect of Section 133 of the

reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free

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.
