We have audited the accompanying Standalone financial statements of THE ANDHRA SUGARS LIMITED
(“the company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31^st March 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss
(including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash
Flows for the year ended on that date, and a summary of the material accounting policies and other explanatory
information (herein after referred to as “the Standalone financial statements”)

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us the accompanying
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 read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015, as amended, (“Ind
AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at
31^st March 2025, and itsprofit and 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 (SAs)
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 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 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 we
have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Standalone 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 Standalone Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of
our audit of the Standalone 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 that there are no key audit matters to
communicate in our report.

Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon

The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of 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, Business Responsibilityand Sustainability Report, Corporate Governance
and Shareholder’s Information, but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor’s
report thereon.

Our opinion on the Standalone 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 Standalone 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 and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial
Statements:

The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies
Act, 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these StandaloneFinancial 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 Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed
under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued there under 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 of the assets of the company and for preventing and detecting the 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 Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the 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 intends
to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone 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 Standalone
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 Standalone 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 controls 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
Standalone 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
Standalone 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 Standalone Financial Statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in theStandalone Financial Statements that, individually or
inaggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisionsof a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
StandaloneFinancial Statements may be influenced. We considerquantitative materiality and qualitative factors

The Andhra Sugars Limited

(i) in planningthe scope of our audit work and in evaluating the resultsof our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect
of any identifiedmisstatements in the Standalone 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 Standalone 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.
