The company''s Board of Directors are responsible for the
preparation and presentation of the other information. The
other information comprises the information included in the
Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Report including
the Annexure to the board''s Report, Share Holder''s Information
etc., but does not include the standalone financial statement and
auditor''s 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 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 material misstatement of this information; we are required to
report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibility of the Management and those charged
with the Governance for the Standalone Financial
Statements
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors of the
Company are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5)
of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of
these standalone financial statement that gives a true and fair view
of the financial position, financial performance, including other
comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows 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 of the assets of the company and for preventing and
detecting fraud 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 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, the Board of Directors are
also responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as
going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
the Board of Directors either intend 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
financial reporting process of the Company.
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 standalone financial
statements.
As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional
judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the
audit.
We also:
(a) I dentify 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.
(b) 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used
and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by management.
(d) Conclude 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 auditor''s report. However, future events
or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue
as a going concern.
(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content
of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the 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 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.

(a) We have sought and obtained all the information and
explanations which to the best of our knowledge and
belief were necessary for the purposes of our audit.

We have audited the standalone financial statements of GOKUL AGRO RESOURCES LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2024, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of Significant Accounting Policies and other Explanatory Information (hereinafter referred to as the "Standalone Financial Statements").
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 (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, 2024, and its profit, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
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 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 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 ICAI Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on Standalone Financial Statement.
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 matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Sr. No. |
Key Audit Matters |
How the Matter was addressed in our Audit |
|
1 |
Revenue Recognition: - Material estimation by the company is involved in recognition and measurement of its revenue. The value and timing of revenue recognition for sale of goods varies from contract to contract, and the activity can span beyond the year end. Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when control is transferred to the customers and when there are no other unfulfilled obligations. This requires detailed analysis of each sale agreement/ contract /customer purchase order regarding timing of revenue recognition. Inappropriate assessment could lead to a risk of revenue being recognized on sale of goods before the control in the goods is transferred to the customer. Subsequent adjustments are made to the transaction price due to grade mismatch/slippage of the transferred goods. |
Our audit procedures to assess the appropriateness of revenue recognized included the following; Our audit procedures, considering the significant risk of misstatement related to revenue recognition, included amongst other: - Obtaining an understanding of an assessing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the Companyâs key internal controls over the revenue recognition process. - Examination of significant contracts entered into close to year end to ensure revenue recognition is made in correct period. - Testing a sample of contracts from various revenue streams by agreeing information back to contracts and proof of delivery as appropriate and ensure revenue recognition policy is in accordance with principles of Ind AS 115. |

|
The variation in the contract price if not settled mutually between the parties to the contract is referred to third party testing and the Company estimates the adjustments required for revenue recognition pending settlement of such dispute. Such adjustments in revenue are made on estimated basis following historical trend. Inappropriate estimation could lead to a risk of revenue being overvalued or undervalued. Accordingly, timing of recognition of revenue and adjustments for coal quality variances involving critical estimates is a key audit matter. |
Our testing as described above showed that revenue has been recorded in accordance with the terms of underlying contracts and accounting policy in this area. |
|

Inventory and Valuation of Inventories and Physical Verification of Inventories: - The carrying value of inventory as at 31st March 2024 is Rs. 1,29,826.73 Lakhs. The inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value except raw material which is stated at cost. We considered the value of inventory as a key audit matter given the relative size of its balance in the financial statements and significant judgment involved in the consideration of factors in determination of selling prices such as fluctuation of raw materials prices in the market and in determination of net realizable value (Refer Note No. 8 to the Standalone Financial Statement). |
Our audit procedures included the following; - We understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls as established by the management in determination of net realizable value of inventory. - Assessing the appropriateness of Companyâs accounting policy for valuation of stock-in-trade and compliance of the policy with the requirements of the prevailing Indian accounting standards. - We considered various factors including the actual selling price prevailing around and subsequent to the year-end. - Compared the cost of the finished goods with the estimated net realizable value and checked if the finished goods were recorded at net realizable value where the cost was higher than the net realizable value. Based on the above procedures performed, the managementâs determination of the net realizable value of the inventory as at the year end and comparison with cost for valuation of inventory is considered to be reasonable. It is not possible for us to physically verify the Inventories of Raw Materials, Inventory of Stores and Spares, and Packing and Other Materials at the year end. As per the information given to us by the management, that the management of the company physically verify the inventories at regular intervals. We have relied on the valuation done by the management of the company. |

Carrying Value of Trade Receivables and Advances: - The collectability of the companyâs Trade Receivables and Advances (Including Trade Advances), the valuation of allowance for impairment of trade receivables and provision for bad and doubtful debt require significant management judgment. As per the current assessment of the situation based on the Internal and external information available up to the date of approval of these financial results by the Board of Directors, the Company believes that there is no indication of any material impact on the carrying value. Management uses this information to determine whether a provision for impairment or for bad debt is required either for a specific transaction or for a customerâs balance overall. Accordingly, it has been determined as a key audit matter. |
Our audit procedures included the following; - We assessed a sample of trade receivables and advances. - We assessed the ageing of trade receivables and advances, the customerâs historical payment patterns and whether any post year-end payments have been received up to the date of completing our audit procedures. - We also discussed with the management regarding any disputes between the parties involved, attempts by management to recover the amounts outstanding and on the credit status of significant counterparties wherever available. In assessing the appropriateness of the overall provision for impairment, we considered the managementâs application of policy for recognizing provisions. We assessed the Companyâs provisioning policy and comparing the Companyâs provisioning against historical collection data. Based on our procedures, we also considered the adequacy of disclosures in respect of trade receivables and advances in the financial statements. |

Assessment of litigations and related disclosure of contingent liabilities: - (Refer to Note 3.12, significant accounting policies to the Standalone financial statements) The provisions and contingent liabilities relate to ongoing litigations and claims with various authorities. These relate to direct tax, various indirect taxes, claims and general legal proceedings arising in the regular course of business. The assessment of a provision or contingent liability requires significant judgement by the company because of the inherent complexity in estimating future costs. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate made by the management. The provisions and contingent liabilities are subject to changes in the outcomes of litigations and claims and the positions taken by the company. It involves significant judgement and estimation to determine the likelihood and timing of the cash outflows and interpretations of the legal aspects, tax legislations and judgments previously made by authorities. (Refer Note - 33 to the Standalone Financial Statements - "Contingent Liabilities & Commitments and Note -34 "Pending Litigation") |
Our audit procedures included the following; - Understanding the process followed by the company/ management for assessment and determination of the amount for provisions and contingent liabilities relating to taxation, litigations and claims. - We understood, assessed and tested the design and operating effectiveness of key controls surrounding assessment of litigations relating to the relevant laws and regulations; - We discussed with management and those charged with the governance, the recent developments and the status of the material litigations which were reviewed and noted; - We performed our assessment on a test basis on the underlying calculations supporting the contingent liabilities/other significant litigations disclosed in the Standalone Financial Statements; - We evaluated managementâs assessment around those matters that are not disclosed or not considered as contingent liability, as the probability of material outflow is considered to be remote by the management; and - We assessed the adequacy of the Companyâs disclosures. Based on the above work performed, the assessment in respect of litigations and related disclosures relating to contingent liabilities/other significant litigations in the Standalone Financial Statements is considered to be reasonable. |

Capitalization and useful life of tangible assets: - Significant judgment and estimates are involved with respect to the following matters of tangible assets; During the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company has incurred capital expenditure on various projects included in capital work in progress. Further, items of property, plant and equipment that are ready for its intended use as determined by the management have been capitalized.

Assessed the nature of the additions made to property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and capital work-in-progress on a test check basis to test whether they meet the recognition criteria as set out Ind AS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment and Ind AS 38 - Intangible Assets, including intended use of management. |
The companyâs Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Boardâs Report including the Annexure to the boardâs Report, Share Holderâs Information etc., but does not include the standalone financial statement and 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 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 material misstatement of this information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Companyâs Management and Board of Directors of the Company are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these standalone financial statement that gives a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows 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 of the assets of the company and for preventing and detecting fraud 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 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, the Board of Directors are also responsible for assessing the Companyâs ability to continue as going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intend 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 financial reporting process of the Company.
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 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 decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
(a) 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.
(b) 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
(d) Conclude 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 auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.
(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the 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 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.

Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

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 ICAI Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion on Standalone Financial Statement.
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 matters described below to be the key
audit matters to be communicated inour report.
The company''s Board of Directors are responsible for the
preparation and presentation of the other information. The
other information comprises the information included in the
Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s Reportincluding
the Annexure to the board''s Report, Share Holder''s
Information etc., but does not include the standalone financial
statement andauditor''s 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 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 material misstatement of this information;we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors of the
Company are responsible for the matters stated in section
134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and
presentation of these standalone financial statement that
gives a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, including other comprehensive income, changes
in equity, and cash flows 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 of the assets of the company and for
preventing and detecting fraud 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 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, the Board of Directors
are also responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to
continue as going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters
related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the Board of Directors either intend 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
financial reporting process of the Company.
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 standalone financialstatements.
As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout theaudit.
We also:
(a) 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.
(b) 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used
and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.
(d) Conclude 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 theaudit
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.
(e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of
the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the
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 financialstatements.
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
duringouraudit.
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 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.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

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.
For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

Key Audit Matters |
How the Matter was addressed in our Audit |
|
1 |
Revenue Recognition:- The group follows the revenue recognition policy as set out by the parent company and as stated in the standalone financial statement (Refer Note No. 3.4 to the significant accounting policies of standalonefinancial statement). Revenue by the group is recognized when the control of the underlying products has been transferred to customer along with the satisfaction of the Company''s performance obligation under a contract with customer. The group focuses on revenue as a key performance measure which could create an incentive for revenue to be recognized before completion of the performance obligation. There is a significant risk of misstatement due to risk related to inappropriate recognition of the revenue and hence was determined to be a key audit matter |
Our audit procedures to assess the appropriateness of revenue recognized included the following; Our audit procedures, considering the significant risk of misstatement related to revenue recognition, included amongst other: - Obtaining an understanding of an assessing the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the Company''s key internal controls over the revenue recognition process. - Examination of significant contracts entered into close to year end to ensure revenue recognition is made in correct period. - Testing a sample of contracts from various revenue streams by agreeing information back to contracts and proof of delivery as appropriate and ensure revenue recognition policy is in accordance with principles of Ind AS 115. |

Our testing as described above showed that revenue has been recorded in accordance with the terms of underlying contracts and accounting policy in this area. |

|
2 |
Inventory:- The carrying value of inventory as at 31st March 2021 is Rs. 367.62 crore. The inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. We considered the value of inventory as a key audit matter given the relative size of its balance in the financial statements and significant judgment involved in the consideration of factors in determination of selling prices such as fluctuation of raw materials prices in the market and in determination of net realizable value. (Refer Note No. 9 to the Standalone Financial Statement) |
- We understood and tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls as established by the management in determination of net realizable value of inventory. - Assessing the appropriateness of Company''s accounting policy for valuation of stock-in-trade and compliance of the policy with the requirements of the prevailing Indian accounting standards. - We considered various factors including the actual selling price prevailing around and subsequent to the year-end. - Compared the cost of the finished goods with the estimated net realizable value and checked if the finished goods were recorded at net realizable value where the cost was higher than the net realizable value. Based on the above procedures performed, the management''s determination of the net realizable value of the inventory as at the year end and comparison with cost for valuation of inventory is considered to be reasonable. |
|
3 |
Carrying Value of Trade Receivables:- The collectability of the Company''s trade receivables and the valuation of allowance for impairment of trade receivables and provision for bad and doubtful debt require significant management judgment. As per the current assessment of the situation based on the Internal and external information available up to the date of approval of these financial results by the Board of Directors, the Company believes that the Impact of Covid-19 on its business, assets, internal financial controls, profitability and liquidity, both present and future, would be limited and there is no indication of any material impact on the carrying value. Management uses this information to determine whether a provision for impairment is required either for a specific transaction or for a customer''s balance overall. Accordingly, it has been determined as a key audit matter. |
- We assessed a sample of trade receivables and advances. - We assessed the ageing of trade receivables and advances, the customer''s historical payment patterns and whether any post year-end payments have been received up to the date of completing our audit procedures. - We also discussed with the management regarding any disputes between the parties involved, attempts by management to recover the amounts outstanding and on the credit status of significant counterparties wherever available. In assessing the appropriateness of the overall provision for impairment, we considered the management''s application of policy for recognizing provisions. We assessed the Company''s provisioning policy and comparing the Company''s provisioning against historical collection data. Considered the completeness and accuracy of the disclosures. |

Assessment of Covid-19 and Its Impact:- In March 2020, the World Health Organization has declared Covid-19, a global pandemic. Consequent to this, Government of India declared a nation-wide lockdown and later on the same was lifted with some restrictions.

Emphasis of Matter
We draw your attention to the Note No. - 36 to the standalone financial statements which explains the management''s assessment of the financial impact due to the lock down and other restrictions related to Covid-19 pandemic for which a definitive assessment of the impact in the subsequent period is highly dependent upon the circumstances as they evolve.
Responsibility of the Management and those charged with the Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company''s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the presentation of these standalone financial statement that gives a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows of the company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate records in accordance with the provisions of the act for safeguarding of the assets of the company and for preventing and detecting fraud 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 statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
While preparing the financial statements, considering the nature of business of the entity, the management needs to make a detailed assessment (to the extent possible based on the information available) of the impact of COVID-19 on the items, components of the financial statements including disclosures in the financial statements.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for assessing the Company''s ability to continue as going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intend 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 financial reporting process of the Company.
The management''s responsibility also includes making appropriate adjustments to the financial statements and ensuring necessary disclosures, such as disclosures of subsequent events, risks and uncertainties, and how events and conditions may impact future operating results, cash flows and financial position of the entity. Other disclosures may include business risk factors and management''s discussion and analysisof results, liquidity and capital resources.
Auditor''s Responsibilitiesforthe 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 a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
(a) 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.
(b) 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 adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
(c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
(d) Conclude 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 auditor''s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.
(e) 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.
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 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.

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 Ind AS standalone 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 Ind AS standalone 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 Ind AS standalone financial statements.
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 our information and according to the explanations given to us, 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 March 31, 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.
