other comprehensive income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Cash Flow Statement for the
year then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory

so required and give a true and fair view (subject to the matters of Basis of Qualified Opinion and
emphasis mentioned below) in conformity with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 2025, and its profit/loss, total
comprehensive income/ loss, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Qualified 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 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
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 Code of
Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion.
i. Originally the plant of the company was setup at NSEZ, Noida which was later on shifted outside
NSEZ during the FY 2017-18 and in March 2019 the company further changed its business
premises from time to time and since then no manufacturing activity has been carried on. The
Company is required to determine impairment in respect of fixed assets, However the Company
has not done impairment testing. In the absence of any working for impairment of the fixed assets
as per Ind AS 36, the impact of impairment, if any on the financial statements is not ascertainable.
The depreciation has not been charged on its property, plant and equipment during the year
ending 31st March, 2025.
ii. Balance of debtors are outstanding from long period and are subject to confirmation and
consequential effect if any on the financial statements remains uncertain. The trade receivables of
the company could not be verified as the confirmation of balances have not been provided and

assets. The company has neither carried out impairment exercises of Trade Receivables nor
provided for the same and recognized the same as non-current assets since long outstanding. In

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
The company has accumulated losses and net worth of the company is continuously eroding. The
company has incurred a net loss during the current and previous year(s) and the current liabilities
exceeds its current assets. Moreover, no business activity has been undertaken throughout the
year. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant
doubt about the company''s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the financial
statements of the company have been prepared on a going concern basis.
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt
on the group''s ability to continue as going concern and therefore the group may be unable to
realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As a result of
ongoing matters, we are unable to determine as to whether any adjustment that would have
been necessary and required to be made in respect of trade receivable, trade payables,
borrowings, current liabilities, loans and advances and contingent liabilities as at 31st March, 2025
and in respect of the corresponding possible impact of such items and associated elements on the
statement for the year ended on that date, should the group be unable to continue as a going
concern. The ultimate outcome of these matters is at present not ascertainable. Accordingly, we
are unable to comment on the consequential impact. if any, on the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. However, the financial statements of the group have been prepared on a
going concern basis.

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.
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 Report, Corporate Governance and
Shareholder''s Information, 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.
Responsibilities of Management and those charged with governance for the 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 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 principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting
Standards specified under section 133 of the Act read with relevant rule there under and other
accounting principles generally accepted in India in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing
Regulations.. 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 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.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of financial statement
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 scepticism 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are
also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has 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 made by management.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in
terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations.
⢠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 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.
⢠Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Financial Results of the Company to express
an opinion on the Financial Results.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in
(i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate
the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and
other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters
that were of most significance in the audit of the 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.

The Companyâs management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (âICAIâ). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to companyâs policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
Auditorsâ Responsibility .
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companyâs internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the âGuidance Noteâ) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditorâs judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companyâs internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
A companyâs internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companyâs internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of 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 companyâs assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting .
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Opinion .
In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the company requires further improvement in internal financial control system to commensurate with the size of company and the nature of its business.
