We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Bhatia Colour Chem
Limited ("the Company"), which comprises the balance sheet as at March 31, 2026, the
statement of profit and loss, statement of cash flows of the Company and the statement of
changes in equity for the year ended March 31, 2026, and notes to the standalone 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 ('Act') in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in
conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs
of the Company as at March 31, 2026, and its profit, cash flows and changes in equity for
the year ended March 31, 2026.

B Basis of Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards on auditing 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 financial statements under the
provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, 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, we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our opinion.

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

We have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be
communicated in our report. We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the auditors'
responsibilities for the audit of the standalone financial statements section of our report,
including in relation to that matter. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of
procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of
the standalone financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the
procedures performed to address the matter below, provide the basis for our audit opinion
on the accompanying standalone financial statements.

D Information other than the standalone financial statements and auditors'
report thereon

The Company's management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of
the other information. The other information comprises of the information included in the
Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's
Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's
Information, 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 standaloane 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 a material misstatement of this
other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.

E Responsibility of the Management and Board of Directors for the standalone
Financial Statements

The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated
in section 134(5) of 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,
cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting standards specified under
section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014.

This responsibility also includes the 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 financial statement
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 Board of Directors are
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. The company's Management and
Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting
process.

F Auditor's responsibilities 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 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 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 with reference to
standalone 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 and Board of
Directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors use of the
going concern basis of accounting in preparation of standalone financial statements
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.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone 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.
