manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with
the accounting principles generally accepted in India including Indian
Accounting Standards ('Ind AS’) specified under section 133 of the
Act, of the state of affairs (financial position) of the Company as at
March 31, 2025, and profit (financial performance including other
comprehensive income), its cash flows and the changes in equity for
the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
(SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. 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 ('ICAI’) 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 opinion.

Key Audit Matters

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

We have determined the matters described below to be the key
audit matters to be communicated in our report. We have fulfilled
the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the
audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements section of our
report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit
included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone
Ind AS financial statements.

The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures
performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit
opinion on the accompanying standalone Ind AS financial statements.

Assessing the recoverability of carrying value of Inventory (refer note 4.1 to the standalone financial statements)

Key Audit Matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

As at March 31, 2025, the carrying value of inventory comprising of
Work in progress and completed units and stock for future projects
is H 2284.21 Crores. The inventory is valued at the lower of the cost
and net recognised value ("NRV”) in accordance with the applicable
accounting standards.

The determination of the NRV involves estimates based on prevailing
market conditions and taking into account the estimated future selling
price, cost to complete projects and selling costs.

We identified the assessment of the carrying value of inventory as a key
audit matter due to the significance of the balance to the standalone
financial statements as a whole and the involvement of estimates and
judgement in the assessment.

Our procedures in assessing the carrying value of the inventory

included, but were not limited to the following:

• Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policies with
respect to inventory in terms of principles enunciated under
applicable accounting standards

• We assessed the Company’s methodology based on current
economic and market conditions, applied in assessing the
carrying value.

• We obtained and tested the computation involved in
assessment of carrying value including the NRV.

• We made inquiries with management to understand key
assumptions used in determination of the NRV.

• We compared the total projected budgeted cost to the total
budgeted sale value from the project.

• We compared the NRV to recent sales in the project or to the
estimated selling price, applied in assessing the NRV.

• We compared the NRV to the carrying value in books to identify
any potential impairments.


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 Annual Report, but does not include the standalone
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 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 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 Standalone Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters
stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of

these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state
of affairs (financial position), profit or loss (financial performance
including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash
flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India including the Ind AS 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 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 statements 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 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
the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of 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 Standards on Auditing 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 Standards on Auditing, we
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
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.

• 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.

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 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 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.
