We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements oflntelligent Supply Chain Infrastructure Trust (“the Trust”), which comprise the Standalone Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, and the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Standalone Statement of Cash Flows and the Standalone Statement of Changes in Unitholders’ equity for the year ended on that date, the Standalone Statement of Net Assets at Fair Value 11s at March 31, 2025 and the Standalone Statement of Total Returns at Fair Value and the Statement of Net Distributable Cash Flows for the year ended on that date, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

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 infonnation required by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Infrastructure Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014 as amended from time to time including any guidelines and circulars issued thereunder read with SEBI Master circular No. SEBI/HO/DDHS-PoD-2/P/CIR/ 2024/44 dated May 15, 2024 (together referred to as the "SEBI InvIT Regulations”) in the manner so required and give a trae and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards as defined in Rule 2(l)(a) of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, (“Ind AS”) read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent not inconsistent with the SEBI InvIT Regulations, of the state of affairs of the Trust as at March 31, 2025, and its profit, total comprehensive income, its cash flows and the changes in unitholders’ equity for the year ended on that date, its net assets at fair value as at March 31, 2025, its total returns at fair value and net distributable cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (“SA”s) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“the ICAI”). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the standalone financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Trust in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the ICAI together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisions of the SEBI InvIT Regulations, 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 audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 5.1 to the standalone financial statements, which describes the presentation of"Unit Capital" as "Equity" to comply with the SEBI InvIT Regulations. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matter

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone 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.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor’s Response

l.

Computation and disclosures of Net Assets and Total Returns at Fair Value

In accordance with the SEBI lnvIT Regulations, the Trust is required to disclose Statement of Net Assets at Fair Value and Statement of Total Returns at Fair Value which requires fair valuation of net assets. As at March 31, 2025, the fair value of the total assets was Rs. 5,219.92 crore out of which fair value of investments and loans was Rs. . 5,218.78 crore representing 99.98% of the fair value of total assets.

The fair value of the total assets of the Trust is determined by an independent valuer using discounted cash flow method.

While there are several assumptions that are required to determine the fair value of the total assets of the Trust, assumptions with the highest degree of estimate, subjectivity and impact on fair value are the valuation methodology used in determining the fair value, the future performance of the business and the discount rate.

Auditing these assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment as the estimate made by the independent external valuer contains significant measurement uncertainty.

Refer Standalone Statement of Net Assets as at March 31, 2025 and Total Returns at Fair Value for the year ended March 31, 2025.

Principal audit procedures performed among others:

Our audit procedures related to the computation and disclosure of the fair value of net assets included the following among others:

• We obtained the independent valuer''s valuation report to obtain an understanding of the source of information used by the independent valuer in determining the assumptions.

• We tested the reasonableness of the future cash flows shared by management with the independent valuer, by comparing it to source information used in preparing the inputs.

• We also involved our internal fair valuation specialists to assess the reasonableness of the discount rate used by management in valuation and the valuation methodology adopted.

• We compared the fair value determined by the Trust with that determined by our internal fair valuation specialist to assess the reasonableness of the fair valuation.

• Tested the arithmetical accuracy of computation in the Statement of Net Assets and Total Returns at Fair Value.

• Assessed the disclosures m the standalone financial statements for compliance with the relevant requirements of the SEBI lnvIT Reflations.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon

• The Investment Manager’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements, standalone financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s report.

• Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we will 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.

• When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance as required under SA 720 ‘The Auditor’s responsibilities Relating to Other Information’.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors of the Investment Manager for the standalone financial statements

The Investment Manager’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows, changes in unitholders’ equity, net assets at fair value, and total returns at fair value of the Trust in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Ind AS to the extent not inconsistent with the SEBI InvlT Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records for safeguarding the assets of the Trust 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.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, management and Investment Manager’s Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Trust’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 Investment Manager’s Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Investment Manager’s Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Trust’s nancial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the 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 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 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 standalone 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 control relevant to the audit 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 Trust’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust’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 Trust 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.

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 (i) in 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

As required by the SEBI InvIT Regulations, based on our audit, we report that:

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

b) The Balance Sheet, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Unitholders’ Equity, dealt with by this Report are in agreement with the books of account; and

c) In our opinion, the aforesaid standalone financial statements comply with the Ind AS as defined in Rule 2(l)(a) of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended), and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, to the extent not inconsistent with the SEBI InvIT Regulations.
