We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Shree Rama Multi-Tech Limited
(the 'Company') which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, 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 then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for
the matters described in the basis for qualified opinion para below, the aforesaid standalone 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 Standards) Rules, 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 profit, total comprehensive income, its cash flows and the
changes in equity for the year then ended on that date.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
Non-consolidation of accounts of Shree Rama (Mauritius) Limited (Wholly Owned Subsidiary) as per
Section 129 of the Act & Ind AS 110 issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India for the
reasons specified in Note No. 37 of the financial statements.
We conducted our audit of the standalone 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 Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 standalone 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 opinion on the standalone financial
statements.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note No. 8.2 of the accompanying financial statements regarding recognition of net
deferred tax assets amounting to ?2984.93 Lakhs on carried forward unabsorbed depreciation in view of
consistent profits made by the company during the past 3 years and based on assessment done by the
management of future business projections regarding the reasonable certainty of future taxable profits.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of above 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. We have determined the matters described below to be the
key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response

|
Provisions and Contingent Liabilities relating to
taxation, litigations and claims
The provisions and contingent liabilities relate to
ongoing litigations and claims with various
authorities and third parties. These relate to income
tax, general legal proceedings and other
eventualities arising in the regular course of
business.
The computation of a provision or contingent
liability requires significant judgment by the
Company because of the inherent complexity in
estimating future costs. The amount recognized as
a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure.
The provisions and contingent liabilities are subject
to changes in the outcomes of litigations and claims
and the positions taken by the Company. It involves
significant judgment and estimation to determine
the likelihood and timing of the cash outflows and
interpretations of the legal aspects, tax legislations
and judgments previously made by authorities.
|
Principal Audit Procedures included :
• Understanding the process followed by the
Company for assessment and determination of
the amount of provisions and contingent
liabilities relating to taxation, litigations and
claims.
• Evaluating the design and implementation and
testing operating effectiveness of key internal
controls around the recognition and
measurement of provisions and re-assessment
of contingent liabilities.
• Inquiring the status in respect of significant
provisions and contingent liabilities with the
Company's internal tax and legal team,
including challenging the assumptions and
critical judgments made by the Company which
impacted the computation of the provisions and
inspecting the computation.
• Assessing the Company's disclosures in the
standalone financial statements in respect of
provisions and contingent liabilities.

Assessment of recoverability of Deferred Tax

Principal Audit Procedures included :
|
|
Assets (net)
The Company has recognized deferred tax assets
(net) amounting to ?2984.93 Lakhs as at March 31,
2025 on unabsorbed depreciation and other
temporary differences. The deferred tax assets are
recognized as it is considered recoverable based
on the Company's projected future taxable income,
in accordance with Indian Accounting Standard 12
- “Income Taxes”.
We have considered this as a key audit matter due
to uncertainties and significant judgement required
by the management in preparation of projected
future taxable income considering the future
business plan and underlying assumptions such as
|
• Understanding, evaluating and testing the
design and operating effectiveness of relevant
controls relating to recognition and assessment
of recoverability of deferred tax assets.
• Assessing the appropriateness of the
Company's accounting policy in respect of
recognizing deferred tax assets on business
losses, unabsorbed depreciation and other
temporary differences.
• Verifying the calculation of net deferred tax
asset recognized as at the year-end.
• Evaluating the judgements and assumptions
made by the management in determining the

reasonableness.
• Checking the mathematical accuracy of the
underlying calculation of the projections.
• Reviewing the adequacy of disclosures made
in the financial statements with regard to
deferred tax assets.

Information other than Standalone 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 Board's Report (including annexures thereto), but does not
include the 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 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.
Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone
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 standalone 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Indian 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 judgement and estimates that are
reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively or ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the 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 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 management 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 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 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 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 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 standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of
such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting polices 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 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 the standalone financial statements that, individually or
in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
standalone 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 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.
