(formerly known as Essar Securities Limited) (“the
Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at
March 31, 2025, and the Statement of Profit and Loss, the
Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash
Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial
statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter
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 aforesaid
standalone financial statements give the information
required by the Companies Act(the “act), 2013 in the
manner so required and give a true and fair view in
conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards presented
under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rule, 2015, as amended
(“Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as
at March 31, 2025, and its loss, changes in equity and its
cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards
on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the
Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”). 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 independence requirements that are relevant to our
audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the
Companies Act, 2013 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

We have determined that there are no key audit matters to
communicate in our report.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and
Auditor''s Report thereon

The Company''s Board of Directors are responsible for
the other information. The other information comprises
the information included in Annual Report comprising
Directors Report and Corporate Governance Report, but
does not include the financial statements and our auditor''s
report thereon. The Annual 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 will 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 identified
above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with
the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the
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.

Responsibility of Management 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and
fair view of the financial position, financial performance,
changes in equity 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 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 the 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 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 internal control relevant
to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section
143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also
responsible for expressing our opinion on whether
the company has adequate internal financial controls
system 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.

We have communicated 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 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. 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.

Order, 2020 (“the Order”), issued by the Central

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

Management''s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors'' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness.

Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2016, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
