We have audited the accompanying Standalone financial statements of L.K.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalonefinancial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) in the manner so required and givea true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of theCompany as at March 31, 2025, and profit for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the financial statement in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’sResponsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company inaccordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethicalrequirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules there under,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 on thefinancial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financialstatements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as awhole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The Company’s board of directors are responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other informationcomprises the information included in the Board’s Report including Annexure(s) to Board’s report, but does not include thefinancial 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 assuranceconclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the 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 knowledgeobtained 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 arerequired to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to thepreparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financialperformance 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 ofadequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and forpreventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies ;makingjudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internalfinancial 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 materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a goingconcern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unlessmanagement either intends to liquidate the 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.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance isa high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a materialmisstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in theaggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financialstatements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design andperform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide abasis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resultingfrom error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internalcontrol.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate inthe circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinionon whether the company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of suchcontrols
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relateddisclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the auditevidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt onthe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whetherthe financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probablethat the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We considerquantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of ourwork; 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 theaudit 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 requirementsregarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought tobear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
