We have audited the accompanying financial statements
of Fusion Finance Limited (Formerly Fusion Micro Finance
Limited) (the "Company"), which comprise the Balance
Sheet as at 31st March 2025, and the Statement of Profit
and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the
Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes
in Equity for the year ended on that date, and notes to the
financial statements, including a summary of material
accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and
according to the explanations given to us, except for
the possible effects of the matter described in the
Basis for Qualified Opinion section below, 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 Indian
Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the
Act, ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company
as at 31st March 2025, and its loss, total comprehensive
loss, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year
ended on that date.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

As stated in Note 60 to the financial statements, the
Company has not evaluated whether any of the expected
credit allowances recognised in the year ended March 31,
2025 should be retrospectively adjusted to the previously
reported amounts in the prior year presented because
of impracticability as described in Ind AS 8, Accounting
Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors.
In the absence of sufficient and appropriate evidence,
we are unable to comment on the Company's basis of
impracticability to evaluate and determine whether any
retrospective adjustment should have been made to
previously reported amounts in the prior year presented.

We conducted our audit of the financial statements
in accordance with the Standards on Auditing
(“SA"s) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our

responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor's Responsibility 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 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 obtained by is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our qualified opinion on the financial
statements.

Material uncertainty related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 61 to the financial statements
which describes the material uncertainty in relation to
the going concern assumption used in the preparation
of the financial statements. This condition and other
matters stated in the Note indicate the existence of
material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
However, the financial statements of the Company have
been prepared on a going concern basis for the reasons
stated in the said Note.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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. In addition to the matter
described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion section and
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section of
our report, we have determined the matters described
below to be the key audit matters to be communicated
in our report.

Sr. No.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response

1

Impairment of financial instruments
(including provision for Expected Credit
Loss) (As described in note 2.7 of the financial
statements)

Ind AS 109 requires the Company to provide
for impairment of its loan receivables (financial
instruments) using the Expected Credit Loss
(ECL) approach. ECL involves an estimation
of probability-weighted loss on financial
instruments over their life, considering
reasonable and supportable information about
past events, current conditions, and forecasts of
future economic conditions which could impact
the credit quality of the Company’s loans and
advances.

In the process, a significant degree of judgement
has been applied by the management for:

a. Defining qualitative/ quantitative thresholds
for ‘significant increase in credit risk’ ("SICR")
and ‘default’.

b. Grouping of loan portfolio under
homogenous pools to determine probability
of default on a collective basis.

c. Estimating recoveries to determine loss
given default on a collective basis for loans
that have defaulted.

d. Determining effect of less frequent past
events on future probability of default.

Principal audit procedures performed included the following:

We have examined the policies approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company that articulate the objectives of
managing portfolio and their business models. We have also
verified the methodology adopted for computation of ECL
(“ECL Model”) that addresses policies approved by the Board of
Directors, procedures and controls for assessing and measuring
credit risk on all lending exposures measured at amortised cost.

Additionally, we have also confirmed that adjustments to the
output of the ECL model is consistent with the documented
rationale and the amount of adjustment has been approved by
the Board of Directors

Our audit procedures related to the allowance for ECL included
the following, among others:

• Evaluation of the design and operating effectiveness of
controls across the processes relevant to ECL. These controls,
among others, included controls over the allocation of
assets into stages;

• Involvement of Internal Specialist for review of stage
classification of Loan portfolio;

• Involvement of Internal Expert for evaluation and
understanding of the model adopted by the Company
for calculation of Expected Credit Losses including the
appropriateness of the data on which the calculation is
based;

• Testing on sample basis, the input and historical data used
for determining the Probability of Default (PD) and Loss
Given Default (LGD) rates, model validation and agreeing
the data with the underlying books of account and records;

• Evaluated the incorporation of the applicable assumptions
into the ECL Model and tested the mathematical accuracy
and computation of the allowances by using the same input
data used by the Company with the help of internal experts.

• Tested the adequacy of the adjustment after stressing
the inputs used in determining the output as per the ECL
Model tested that the adjustment is in conformity with the
amount approved by the Board of Directors.

• Evaluated that the Company’s ECL allowance is derived in
accordance with Ind AS 109

• Assessed the accuracy of disclosures made in relation to the
ECL allowance in accordance with Ind AS 107

above and in our report on Internal Financial Controls)

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
Management Discussion and Analysis and Board’s Report
including Annexures to Board Report but does not include
the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
The Management Discussion and Analysis and Board’s
Report including Annexures to Board Report is expected to
be made available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.

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 financial statements, or our knowledge
obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information, if we conclude that
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance
as required under SA 720 ‘The Auditor’s responsibilities
Relating to Other Information’

Responsibilities of Management and Board of
Directors for the 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 financial position, financial performance
including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes
in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including 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 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 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, 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 intend to

liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

The Company’s Board of Directors is also responsible for
overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial
Statements

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. 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
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 internalfinancialcontrols
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 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 the 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 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 financial controls 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.
