We have audited the accompanying Financial Statements of Garg Furnace Limited

(hereinafter referred to as "the Financial Statements").

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 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 profit, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that
date.

Basis for Opinion

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 (SAs). 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 (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 us is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Financial Statements.

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. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit
matters to be communicated in our report.

Information Other than Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and
Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report and Shareholder's
Information, 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 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 and describe actions applicable in the applicable laws and
regulations.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance 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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in
accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in
India. 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 is 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 Board
of Directors 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.

Auditor's Responsibilities 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 our 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 internal financial control 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 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 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.
