Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditingspecified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further describedin the Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report.

Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 52 to the Financial Statement, which describes the status of the Company'sregistration with the Bio-Fuel Authority, Government of Rajasthan, and the related legal proceedings. As statedin the said note, during the pendency of the renewal process, the authorities seized four storage tankscontaining raw material (Veg Ester) at the Company's Swaroopganj unit and initiated criminal proceedingsagainst one of the Directors of the company. The Hon'ble Rajasthan High Court, vide order dated August 26,2025, has permitted continuation of operations for supply commitments to Oil Marketing Companies.
As stated in the said note, the value of the seized raw material continues to be carried as inventory in theaccompanying financial statements, since the management is confident of its release and subsequent use ofmaterials in production. The management has represented that there has been no loss of production ordisruption in supplies and that it remains confident of a favourable outcome in the matter.
Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

The other information is expected to be made available to us afterthe date of this auditor's report.
Our opinion on the Standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not expressany form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the Standalone financial statements,our responsibility is to read the other information identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so,consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Standalone financial statements, or ourknowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the other Information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we arerequired to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and to comply with the relevantapplicable requirements of the SA 720 ‘The Auditor's responsibilities Relating to Other Information.
Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with referenceto the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financialposition, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows ofthe Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.

controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Standalone financial statement that give a true and fair viewand are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone financial statements, management and Boad of directors are responsible forassessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related togoing concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial 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 aswhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report thatincludes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an auditconducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatementscan arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they couldreasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalonefinancial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalscepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone financial statements, whether due tofraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence thatis sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement 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 proceduresthat are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in placeand the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimatesand 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 conditionsthat may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we concludethat a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the relateddisclosures in the Standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify ouropinion. 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 Standalone financial statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the Standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions andevents in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scopeand timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control thatwe identify during our audit.
We also provided those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters thatmay 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 wereof most significance in the audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the current period and are thereforethe key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure 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 expectedto outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
