We have audited the financial statements of Abate AS Industries Limited (“the Company”), which
comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2024, and the Statement of Profit and Loss, and notes to the
standalone financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“the 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 31 March, 2024, and profit for the
year ended on that date.

Basis for 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 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 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 financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not
provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Information other than the financial statements and auditors' report thereon

The Company's board of directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the Board's Report including Annexures to

Board's Report, Business Responsibility Report but does not include the 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 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 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.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

The Company's board of directors are 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 financial position, financial performance 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 financial statement that give a true and fair view and are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the entity'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
entity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

a) Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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.

b) Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted
in accordance with auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

c) 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 auditing
standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout
the audit. And 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, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control.

• 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 Entity'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 Entity 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.

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 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.
