Joint Operations accounted on proportionate basis.

We do not express an opinion on the accompanying standalone
financial statements of the Company. Because of the significance
of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
section of our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient
appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion
on these standalone financial statements.

Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion

1. We refer to Note 37 to the standalone financial statements
the Company’s regarding exposure to the Economic Rights
of shareholding in Odisha Discoms and in shares and
securities in certain unlisted entities as on March 31,2026,
aggregating to
H 4,705.74 crore, acquired by the Company
pursuant to Consent Terms/Settlement Agreement in
the previous year.

We are unable to determine the overall recovery of the
aforesaid Economic rights. Accordingly, we are unable to
determine the consequential implications arising therefrom
in the standalone financial statements of the Company.

2. We draw attention to Note 47 to the standalone financial
statements regarding the ongoing proceedings by the
Enforcement Directorate (“ED”), the Show Cause Notice
(SCN) issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) and notice from the Serious Fraud Investigation
Office (SFIO) and Note 56 regarding filing of ADT-4 and
tendering our resignation as the Statutory Auditors with
effect from the handover of the statutory audit report for the
financial year ended March 31,2026, basis our review of the
SCN herein and the allegations therein of suspected fraud
with regards to the manner of utilisation of funds through

CLE Private Limited (CLE) and its alleged relationship with
the Company among other matters. In connection to this
matter, we filed ADT-4 under section 143(12) of the Act and
relevant rules, with MCA on January 19, 2026.

The outcome of the proceedings is presently uncertain
and cannot be determined at this stage. Accordingly, we
are unable to determine the consequential implications
arising therefrom in the standalone financial statements
of the Company.

Emphasis of matter

1. We draw attention to Note 51 to the standalone financial
statements, the Company has outstanding obligations
payable to its lenders the Company has continuously
incurred losses, as on date the current liabilities exceed
its current assets and the Company is also a guarantor
for certain entities including its subsidiaries whose loans
have also fallen due which indicate that uncertainty exists
that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. However, for the reasons
stated in the aforesaid note, the standalone financial
statements of the Company have been prepared on a
Going Concern basis.

2. We draw attention to Note 46 to the standalone financial
statements, regarding change in accounting policy for
Investment in Equity shares of Subsidiary companies from
cost less impairment as per Ind AS 27 ‘Separate Financial
Statements’ to fair value through other comprehensive
income as per Ind AS 109 ‘Financial instruments’ with
retrospective effect.

3. We draw attention to Note 17(3) to the standalone financial
statements wherein the Company has rectified the
accounting treatment and have adjust loss on invocation
and fair valuation of investment of
H 5,024.88 crore against
retained earnings, retrospectively in accordance with the
Ind AS 8 ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting
Estimates and Errors’. Accordingly, the balance of capital
reserve as on April 1, 2024, is increased by
H 5,024.88
crore and balance of retained earnings is reduced by an
equivalent amount.

4. We draw attention to refer to Note 17(4) to the standalone
financial statements, with respect to the Scheme of
Arrangement (“Scheme”) between the Company
(“Transferee Company” or “Reliance Infra”) and its wholly

adjusted the debit balance in the Profit and Loss account
(Retained Earnings) as on Appointed Date against
(i) Capital Redemption Reserve of
H 130.03 crore, (ii)
Capital Reserve of
H 5,179.96 crore, (iii) General Reserve
of
H 497.41 crore and (iv) Securities Premium Account of
H 5,533.49 crore. Further, with effect from the Appointed

of
H 18,142.17 crore, combined with the existing balance
of securities premium account, the said adjustments which
overrides relevant provisions of Ind AS 1 “Presentation
of Financial Statements” and IND AS 103 “Business
Combination”. Had such adjustments not made securities
premium account would have been lower by
H 18,142.17
crore and other comprehensive income would have been
higher by
H 18,142.17 crore.

5. We draw attention to Note 40(i) to the standalone financial
statements which describes the impairment assessment
performed by the Company in respect of net exposure
of
H 170.00 crore in one subsidiary i.e. Toll Road SPV
Company, other than investment in equity shares, in

impairment is considered necessary on the said exposure
by the management.

statements which describes the impairment assessment
performed by the Company in respect of net exposure

of pending litigations as at March 31, 2026 on
its financial position in its standalone financial

advanced or loaned or invested (either

or any other sources or kind of funds) by

or entities, including foreign entities
(“Intermediaries”), with the understanding,
whether recorded in writing or otherwise,
that the Intermediary shall, whether,
directly or indirectly lend or invest in other
persons or entities identified in any manner
whatsoever by or on behalf of the Company
(“Ultimate Beneficiaries”) or provide any
guarantee, security or the like on behalf of
the Ultimate Beneficiaries;

(b) Management has represented to us that,
to the best of it’s knowledge and belief, as
disclosed in the notes to the standalone
financial statements no funds have been
received by the Company from any
person(s) or entity(ies), including foreign
entities (“Funding Parties”), with the
understanding, whether recorded in writing
or otherwise, that the Company shall,

any material misstatement.

v. The Company has not declared or paid any
dividend during the current year.

vi. Based on our examination, which included test
checks, the Company has used an accounting
software for maintaining its books of account
for the year ended March 31, 2026, which
has a feature of recording audit trail (edit log)
facility, and the same has operated throughout
the year for all relevant transactions recorded in
the software at the application level. However, it
was observed that the database-level audit trail,
though enabled, is not configured to capture
sufficient details of changes made directly at
the database level. Accordingly, such changes
are not recorded with adequate granularity to
ensure comprehensive traceability. Further
during the year, Pursuant to the Scheme of
Arrangement, Reliance Velocity Limited (a wholly
owned Subsidiary) was amalgamated with the
Company, with effect from the Appointed date i.e.
September 30, 2025, Prior to the amalgamation,
Reliance Velocity Limited had been using an
accounting software that did not have an audit
trail (edit log) feature, Accordingly, there is no
audit trail available for the transactions entered
by Reliance Velocity Limited for the period from
April 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025.

Further, during the course of audit, where the
audit trail (edit log) facility was enabled and
operated, we did not come across any instance
of the audit trail feature being tampered with. The
audit trail records maintained by the Company
have been preserved in accordance with its
record retention practices. However, considering
that database-level audit logs are not configured
with sufficient detail, completeness of audit trail
retention in respect of changes made directly at
the database level cannot be fully ascertained.
