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 Standalone 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 standalone 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 audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, 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
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 matters described below to be the key audit matters to be
communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

1

Inventory Existence and Valuation:

As on 31st March 2025, the Company carries
inventories to the tune of Rs.99.79 crores.

We considered the amount of inventories as a key
audit matter given the relative size of the balance in the
financial statements.

Also there are complexities and manual process
involved in determining inventory quantities on hand
and valuation of the same due to the diverse &
numerous inventory products and stocks held in
overseas branch and price fluctuations of products.
Therefore inventory quantities and valuation is
identified as a key audit matter.

• We have attended inventory counts for certain
products, which we have selected based on
financial significance and risk, observed
management's inventory count procedures to
assess the effectiveness, selected a sample of
inventory products and compared the quantities
counted to the quantities recorded and ensured
inventory adjustments, if any, are recorded in the
books of accounts.

• With regard to the stocks held in the overseas
branch, we have received the certificate from the
overseas branch auditor and obtained
management representation and verified the
relevant documents relating to goods sent from
head office to the branch.

• Reviewed the internal audit report regarding
physical verification of inventories and traced
adjustments on sample basis.

• Comparative analysis of inventory as at the end
of the year with the inventory at the beginning of
the year.

• We assessed whether the management's
controls relating to inventory's valuation are
appropriately designed and implemented and
verified the correctness of valuation made by the
management on a sample basis, with regard to
the cost and net realizable value of inventory.

2

Amortisation of livestock:

For the company, the primary raw material is the egg,
for which the company is operating the poultry farm
owned by the company as well as certain additional
poultry farms and feed mills by taking the same on
lease.

• Examined the method used to amortize the
livestock expenses with reference to the
company's historical experience and technical
evaluation by internal experts (doctors)
appointed by management.

• Evaluated the rationale in arriving at the
amortization rate with regard to the number of
eggs expected from birds during the laying
stage, residual value of culled birds, manner and
timing of amortization.

S No

Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response

The amortization of livestock during the year amounts
to 20.78 crores. Also there are complexities and
manual process involved in arriving at the
amortization rate considering a variety of factors such
as age, productivity of the birds, life of birds, residual
value, if any, etc., Therefore amortization of livestock
is identified as a key audit matter.

• Analyzed the flow of transactions starting from
accumulating the various expenditure incurred
for raising the birds such as feeds, medicines,
vaccines, growing and supervision charges,
etc., till the birds attain laying stage. After the
birds star t laying eggs, the expenses so
accumulated are amortized over the useful life of
the birds in proportion to the eggs laid after
adjusting for the residual value of culled birds on
the basis of past experiences and estimation.

• Assessed the objectivity and competence of the
Company's internal experts involved in the
process.

3

Evaluation of Contingent liabilities:

The company has an uncertain direct & indirect tax
position and other contingent liabilities in respect of
bills discounted which involve significant judgment
to determine the possible outcome of these
matters.

• Obtained the details of completed direct &
indirect tax assessments and demands as on
31.03.2025 from the management.

• We have also reviewed the company's
correspondences and appellate documents and
considered legal precedence and other rulings in
evaluating management's position on these
uncertain tax positions

• In respect of bills discounted, analyzed the
history of the business transactions of the
company with the debtors whose bills were
discounted and the trend of payments made by
the debtors in the past and also had taken into
account the transactions occurring after the
balance sheet date in assessing the
recoverability of debtors for the bills discounted.

• Ascertained the chances of crystallization of
liability are probable / possible / remote and
ensured appropriate disclosure under Notes on
accounts.

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 holding company's annual report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our 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 the other information and, in
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone 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.

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 Companies Act, 2013 (“the
Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity 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. 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 standalone 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 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 Responsibility for the Audit of 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 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 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 system 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.

• 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 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.

• 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.

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.
