Note 2: Notes to the financial statements - Material Accounting Policies:
B. Material Accounting Policies:
I. Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under the section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 {as amended from time to time) and presentation and disclosures requirement of Division II of revised Schedule III of the Companies Act 2013, (Ind AS Compliant Schedule III), as applicable to financial statement.
Accordingly, the Company has prepared these financial statements which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March, 2026, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year ended 31 March, 2026 and accounting policies and other explanatory information (together hereinafter referred to as "financial statements").
These financial statements are approved for issue by Board of Directors on April 20,2026.
II. Basis of Preparation and Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost basis except for certain assets and liabilities (financial instruments and share based payment) are measured at fair valued, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1,2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
a) Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
b) Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
c) Level 3âValuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
The Company''s financial statements are reported in Indian Rupees (?), which is also the Company s functional currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest lakhs (INR 00,000), except when otherwise indicated.
Current and Non-Current Classification
The Company presents assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current / non-current
classification.
An asset is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be realised in, or is intended for sale or consumption in, the Company''s normal operating cycle,
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting date; or
d) it is cash or cash equivalent unless it is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a
liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when it satisfies any of the following criteria:
a) it is expected to be settled in the Companyâs normal operating cycle;
b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded;
c) it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting date; or the Company does not have
an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
The operating cycle is the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has identified its operating cycle as 12 months.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current only.
III. Revenue Recognition
A. Sale of Goods
The Company recognises revenue when control over the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer at transaction price that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services, The-Company has generally concluded that it is the principal in its
revenue arrangements as it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
Revenue is generally adjusted for variable consideration such as discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, liquidated damages or other similar deductions in a contract except when it is highly probable it will not be provided. The amount of revenue excludes any amount collected on behalf of third parties.
The Company recognises revenue generally at the point in time when the products are delivered to customer or when it is delivered to a carrier for export sale, which is when the control over product is transferred to the customer. In contracts where freight is arranged by the Company and recovered from the customers, the same is treated as a separate performance obligation and revenue is recognised when such freight services are rendered.
In revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct - i.e. if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the arrangement and if a customer can benefit from it. The consideration is allocated between separate products and services in the arrangement based on their stand-alone selling prices. Revenue from sale of by-products are included in revenue.
There is no significant financing component in revenue recognition. In case of any such financing component is there in revenue arrangements, the Company adjusts the transaction price for financing component, if any and the adjustment is accounted in finance cost.
6. Contract balances
(i) Contract assets
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration.
(ii) Trade receivables
A receivable is recognised at transaction price when the performance obligations are satisfied and to the extent that it has an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or other financial assets {i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due).
(iii) Contract liabilities
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods- or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Company performs under the contract including Advance received from Customer.
\w_
(iv) Refund liabilities
A refund liability is the obligation to refund some or all of the consideration received (or receivable) from the customer and is measured at the amount the Company ultimately expects it will have to return to the customer including volume rebates and discounts. The Company updates its estimates of refund liabilities at the end of each reporting period.
IV. Property, Plant and Equipment
The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price net of any trade discounts and rebates, any import duties and other taxes (other than those subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), costs relating to trial run, any directly attributable expenditure on making the asset ready for its intended use, including relevant borrowing costs for qualifying assets if recognition criteria are met and any expected costs of decommissioning. Expenditure incurred after the property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the year in which the costs are incurred. Major shut-down and overhaul expenditure is capitalised if recognition criterias are satisfied.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss.
Assets in the course of construction are capitalised in the assets under Capital work in progress net of accumulated impairment loss if any. At the point when an asset is operating at management s intended use, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment andâdepreciation commences. Costs associated with the commissioning of an asset and present value of any obligatory decommissioning costs are capitalised in the asset when recognition criteria for provision are satisfied. Revenue (net of cost) generated from production during the trial period is capitalised.
Property, plant and equipment except freehold land held for use in the production, supply or administrative purposes, are stated in the financial statements at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
The Company has elected to continue with the carrying value for all of its property, plant and equipment as recognised in the financial statements on transition to Ind AS measured as per the previous GAAP and use that as its deemed cost as at the date of transition.
Depreciable amount for assets is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets (other than freehold land and properties under construction over their useful lives, using straight-line method as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.
In case of certain class of assets, the Company uses different useful lives than those prescribed in Schedule II of Companies Act, 2013. The useful live has been assessed based on technical assessment, taking into account the nature of the asset, the estimated usage of the asset, the operating conditions of the asset, past history of replacement, anticipated technological changes, manufacturers warranties and maintenance support, etc.
|
The useful lives adopted by the Company is given below: |
|
|
Asset _j |
Useful lives |
|
Computer and Printers |
3 years |
|

30 years |
|

|
Electrical Installations |
10 years |
|
Furniture and Fixtures |
10 years |
|
Office Equipment |
5 years |
|
Vehicles |
8 to 10 years |
When significant parts of plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Company depredates them separately based on their specific useful lives. Freehold land and leasehold land where the lease is convertible to freehold land under lease agreements at future dates at no additional cost, are not depreciated.
Major overhaul costs are depreciated over the estimated life of the economic benefit derived from the overhaul. The carrying amount of the remaining previous overhaul cost is charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss if the next overhaul is undertaken earlier than the previously estimated life of the economic benefit.
The Company reviews useful lives and depreciation method annually and, if expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate on a prospective basis.
V. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following the initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
The Company has elected to continue with carrying value of all its intangible assets recognised as on transition date, measured as per the previous GAAP and use that carrying value as its deemed cost as of transition date.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired.
Estimated useful lives of the intangible assets are as follows:
|
Asset |
Useful lives |
|
Computer Software |
3 to 10 years |
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortised, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level.
VI. Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
a) Cost of raw materials include cost of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.
b) Cost of finished goods and work in progress include cost of direct materials and labour and a
proportion of manufacturing overheads based on the normal operating capacity but excluding borrowing costs. Cost is determined on weighted average basis.
c) Cost of traded goods include purchase cost and inward freight. Costs is determined on weighted average basis.
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price for inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale.
VII. Leases
The Company assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company as a lessee
The Company applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for shortterm leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.
Right-of-use assets
The Company recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use assets are subject to impairment. The recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term is as follows:
|
Asset |
Useful lives |
|
Leasehold Land |
90 years |
|
Factory Premises |
As per lease term |
Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term.
In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The lease payments includes fixed payments (including in substance fixed payments less any incentives receivable variable lease payments and amount payable under residual value guarantees). After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liaoilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.
Short-term leases and lease of low value assets
The Company applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e, those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option) and lease of low value assets.
VIII. Employee Benefit Expenses
a) Short term employee benefits:
A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages, salaries and annual leaves in the period the related service is rendered at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service. Liabilities recognised in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the related service.
b) Long term employee benefits:
Liabilities recognised in respect of long term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows expected to be made by the Company in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.
The Company operates a defined benefit gratuity plan in India. The cost of providing benefits under the defined benefit plan is determined using the projected unit credit method.
Remeasurements, comprising of actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling, excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability and the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the net defined benefit liability), are recognised immediately in the
. A i__â¢
balance sheet with a corresponding debit or credit to retained earnings through OCI in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
Past sen/ice costs are recognised in profit or loss on the earlier of:
(i) The date of the plan amendment or curtailment, and
(ii) The date that the Company recognises related restructuring costs
Net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset. The Company recognises the following changes in the net defined benefit obligation as an expense in the statement of profit and loss:
(i) Service costs comprising current service costs, past-service costs, gains and losses on curtailments and non-routine settlements; and
(ii) Net interest expense or income
The liabilities for earned leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to he end of the reporting period using the projected unit credit method. The benefits are discounted using he market yields at the end of the reporting period that have terms approximating to the terms of the re ated obliqation. Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or loss. The obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer the settlement for at least twelve months after the
reporting date.
c) Termination benefits:
A liability for a termination benefit is recognised at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw the offer of the termination benefit and when the entity recognises any related restructuring costs.
d) Defined contribution plans:
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognised as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions. Payments made to state managed retirement benefit plans are accounted for as payments to defined contribution plans where the Company s obligations under the plans are equivalent to those arising in a defined contribution retirement benefit
plan.
e) Defined benefit plans:
For defined benefit retirement benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period. Remeasurements comprising actuarial gains and losses, the effect of the asset ceiling (if applicable) and the return on plan assets (excluding interest) are recognised immediately in the balance sheet with a charge or credit to other comprehensive income in the period in which they occur. Remeasurements recognised in other comprehensive income are not reclassified. Actuarial valuations are being carried out at the end of each annual reporting period for defined benefit plans.
The retirement benefit obligation recognised in the financial statements represents the deficit or surplus in the Companyâs defined benefit plans. Any surplus resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of any economic benefits available in the form of refunds from the plans or reductions in future contributions to the plans.
The Company pays gratuity to the employees whoever has completed five years of service with the Company at the time of resignation/ superannuation. The gratuity is paid @ 15 days salary for each completed year of service as per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.
IX. Government Grant
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants are recognised in the statement of profit and loss on a systematic basis over the years in which the Company recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate or when performance obligations are met.
Government grants and subsidies whose primary condition is that the Company should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as deferred revenue in the balance sheet which is disclosed as deferred government grant receivable and transferred to the Statement ot profit and loss on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the related assets. Government qrants and subsidies related to the income are deferred which is disclosed as deferred revenue arising from government grant in the balance sheet and recognized in the statement of profit and loss as an income in the period in which related obligations are met.
X. Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when an entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value except trade receivables which are recognised at transaction price. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through Statement of Profit and Loss (FVTPL)) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are recognised immediately in the statement of profit and loss.
1, Financial assets
a) Recognition and initial measurement
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), and fair value through profit or loss. Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within a time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace (regular way trades) are recognised on the trade date, i.e., the date that the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset.

v -----A vw''TIl'' /
b) Classification and measurement of financial assets
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition and subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI) and fair value through profit and loss.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not
designated at FVTPL: .
i. The asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual
cash flows; and
ii. The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
A debt instrument is classified as FVTOCI only if it meets both of the following conditions and is not recognised at FVTPL;
iii. The asset is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and
iv. The contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
Debt instruments included within the FVTOCI category are measured initially as well as at each reporting date at fair value. Fair value movements are recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). Flowever the Company recognises interest income, impairment losses and reversals and foreign exchange gain or loss in the Statement of Profit and Loss. On derecognition of the asset, cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from the equity to Statement of Profit and Loss. Interest earned whilst holding FVTOCI debt instrument is reported as interest income using the EIR method.
All equity investments in scope of Ind AS 109 are measured at fair value. Equity instruments which are held for trading and contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which Ind AS 103 applies are classified as at FVTPL. For all other equity instruments, the Company may make an irrevocable election to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value. The Company makes such election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The classification is made on initial recognition and is irrevocable.
If the Company decides to classify an equity instrument as at FVTOCI, then all fair value changes on the instrument, excluding dividends, are recognised in the OCI. There is no recycling of the amounts from OCI to Statement of Profit and Loss, even on sale of investment. However, the Company may transfer the cumulative gain or loss within equity.
Equity instruments included within the FVTPL category are measured at fair value with all changes recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
All other financial assets are classified as measured at FVTPL.
A r --
In addition, on initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVTOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or significantly reduces and accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting year, with any gains and losses arising on remeasurement recognised in statement of profit and loss. The net gain or loss recognised in statement of profit and loss incorporates any dividend or interest earned on the financial asset and is included in the other incomeâ line item. Dividend on financial assets at FVTPL is recognised
when:
i. The Companyâs right to receive the dividends is established, _
ii. It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the dividends will flow to the entity,
ill. The dividend does not represent a recovery of part of cost of the investment and the amount of
dividend can be measured reliably.
c} Derecognition of financial assets
The Company derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
d) Impairment
The Company applies the expected credit loss model for recognising impairment loss on financial assets measured at amortised cost, debt instruments at FVTOCI, lease receivables, trade receivables, and other contractual rights to receive cash or other financial asset, and financial guarantees not designated as at
FVTPL.
Expected credit losses are the weighted average of credit losses with the respective risks of default occurring as the weights. Credit loss is the difference between all contractual cash flows that are due to the Company in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive (i.e. all cash shortfalls), discounted at the original effective interest rate {or credit-adjusted effective interest rate for purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets). The Company estimates cash flows by considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument (for example, prepayment, extension, call and similar as) through the expected life of that financial instrument.
The Company measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. If the credit risk on a financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12 month expected credit losses. 12 month expected credit losses are portion of the life-time expected credit losses and represent the lifetime cash shortfalls that will result if default occurs within the 12 months after the reporting date and thus, are not cash shortfalls that are predicted over the next 12 months.
If the Company measured loss allowance for a financial instrument at lifetime expected credit loss model in the previous year, but determines at the end of a reporting year that the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition due to improvement in credit quality as compared to the previous year, the Company again measures the loss allowance based on 12 month expected credit losses.
When making the assessment of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, the Company uses the change in the risk of a default occurring over the expected life of the financial instrument instead of the change in the amount of expected credit losses. To make that assessment, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information, that is available without undue cost or effort, that is indicative of significant increases in credit risk since initial recognition. For trade receivables or any contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset that result from transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 115, the Company always measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses.
Further for the purpose of measuring lifetime expected credit loss allowance for trade receivables, the Company has used a practical expedient as permitted under Ind AS 109. This expected credit loss allowance is computed based on a provision matrix which takes into account historical credit loss
experience and adjusted for forward-looking information.
The impairment requirements for the recognition and measurement of a loss allowance are equally applied to debt instruments at FVTOCI except that the loss allowance is recognised in other comprehensive income and is not reduced from the carrying amount in the balance sheet. The Company has performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used and based on current indicators of future economic conditions, the Company expects to recover the carrying amount of these assets.
e) Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant year. The effective interest rate (EIR) is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an inteqral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter year, to the net carrying amount on
initial recognition.
Income is recognised on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL. Interest income is recognised in the statement of profit and loss and is included
in the ''Other incomeâ line item.
2. Financial liabilities and equity instruments
a) Classification as debt or equity debt and equity
Instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity
instrument.
b) Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Repurchase of the-Company''s own equity instruments is recognised
and deducted directly in equity. No gain or loss is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Company''s own equity instruments.
c) Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities âat FVTPL'' or âother financial liabilities''. Financial liabilities at FVTPL:
Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL.
A financial liability is classified as held for trading if:
i. It has been incurred principally for the purpose of repurchasing it in the near term; or
ii. on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
iii. it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.
A financial liability other than a financial liability held for trading may be designated as at FVTPL upon initial recognition if:
i. such designation eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency
that would otherwise arise; , ,
ii. the financial liability forms part of a group of financial assets or financial liabilities or both, which is managed and its performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with the Company s documented risk management or investment strategy, and information about the Company is
provided internally on that basis; or _
iii. it forms part of a contract containing one or more embedded derivatives, and Ind AS 109 permits the entire combined contract to be designated as at FVTPL in accordance with Ind AS 109.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss. The net gain or loss recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss incorporates any interest paid on the financial liability and is included in the Statement of Profit and Loss. For liabilities designated as FVTPL, fair value gains/ losses attributable to changes in own credit risk are recognised in OCI.
The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Companyâs obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost (Loans, Borrowings and Trade and Other payables) After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings and trade and other payables are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the E1R method. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.
d) Other financial liabilities
The Company enters into arrangements whereby banks and financial institutions make direct payments to suppliers for raw materials and project materials. The banks and financial institutions are subsequently repaid by the Company at a later date providing working capital timing benefits. These are normally settled within twelve months. The economic substance of the transaction is determined to be operating in nature and these are recognised as supplier''s credit / letter of credit - acceptances and disclosed on the face of the balance sheet. Interest expense on these are recognised in the finance cost. Payments made by banks and financial institutions to the operating vendors are treated as a non cash item and settlement of due to supplier''s credit / letter of credit - acceptances by the Company is treated as an operating cash outflow reflecting the substance of the payment.
e) Derecognition of financial liabilities;
The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company s obligations are discharged, cancelled or have expired. An exchange between with a lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability (whether attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor) is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Xi. Impairment of Non-Financial Asset
At the end of each reporting year, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual cash generating units, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of cash-generating units for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can
be identified.
XII. Segment Reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The Board of directors of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker which reviews and assesses the financial performance and makes the strategic decisions.
XIII. Taxes
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
a) Current tax
Current tax is the amount of expected tax payable based on the taxable profit for the year as determined in accordance with the applicable tax rates and the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
b) Deferred tax
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
(i) When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill
(ii) In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary
differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences wifi not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except
(i) When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow ail or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised, or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss (either in other comprehensive income or in equity). Deferred tax items are recognised in correlation to the underlying transaction either in OCI or directly in equity.
c) Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit and loss, except when they are relating to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. Where current tax or deferred tax arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, the tax effect is included in the accounting for the business combination.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the relevant entity intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
XIV. Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive), as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources, that can be reliably estimated, will be required to settle such an obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
The Company gives a warranty between 25 to 30 years on solar modules designed, manufactured and supplied by the Company. In order to meet the expected outflow of resources against future warranty claims, the Company makes a provision for warranty. This provision for warranty represents the expected future outflow of resources against claims for performance shortfall on account of manufacturing deficiencies over the assured warranty life.
XV. Cash and Cash Equivalent
Cash and cash equivalent in the Balance Sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are readily convertible in an known amount of cash and subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.
For the purpose of the Statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalent consists of cash and shortterm deposits, as defined above.
XVI. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit and loss after tax by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year is adjusted for treasury shares, bonus issue, bonus element in a rights issue to existing shareholders, share split and reverse share split (consolidation of shares).
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the profit or loss after tax as adjusted for dividend, interest and other charges to expense or income (net of any attributable taxes) relating to the dilutive potential equity shares by weighted average number of equity shares considered for deriving basic earning per share and weighted average number of equity shares which could have been issued on the conversion of dilutive potential equity shares.
. J . Cr. ^
C. Significant judgements and estimates:
In the course of applying the policies outlined in all notes under section B above, the Company is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future year, if the revision affects current and future year.
(i) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment
Management reviews the useful lives of properly, plant and equipment at least once a year. Such lives are dependent upon an assessment of both the technical lives of the assets, and also their likely economic lives based on various internal and external factors including relative efficiency, the operating conditions of the asset, anticipated technological changes, historical trend of plant load factor, historical planned and scheduled maintenance. This reassessment may result in change in depreciation and amortisation expected in future periods. It is possible that the estimates made based on existing experience are different from the actual outcomes and could cause a material adjustment to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. For the relative size of the Company''s property, plant and equipment refer note 3(a).
(ii) Provisions and Contingencies
Provisions and liabilities are recognized in the period when it becomes probable that there will be a future outflow of funds resulting from past events that can reasonably be estimated. The timing of recognition requires application of judgement to existing facts and circumstances which may be subject to change. Refer note 18 and 24.
In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigation and other claims against the Company. Potential liabilities that are possible but not probable of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits are treated as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not recognized. Refer note 37
(iii) Income Taxes
Significant judgements are involved in determining the provision for income taxes, including amount expected to be paid/recovered for uncertain tax positions. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets arising from unused tax credits, the management considers convincing evidence about availability of sufficient taxable income against which such unused tax credits can be utilized. The amount of the deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could change if estimates of future taxable income changes in the future. Refer note 34.
(iv) Defined benefit plans
The cost of defined benefit gratuity plan and other post-employment benefits are determined using actuarial valuations. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
The mortality rate is based on publicly available mortality tables for India. Those mortality tables tend to change only at interval in response to demographic changes. Future salary increases and gratuity increases are based on expected future inflation rates. Refer note 36.
(v) Impairment of non-financial assets
Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at armâs length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from the other assets or groups of assets {cash generating units). The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Company is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset''s performance of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the discounted cash flow model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. These estimates are most relevant to goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite useful lives recognised by the Company.
(vi) Expected credit loss
The measurement of expected credit loss on financial assets is based on the evaluation of collectability and the management''s judgement considering external and internal sources of information. A considerable amount of judgement is required in assessing the ultimate realization of the loans / receivables having regard to, the past collection history of each party and ongoing dealings with these parties, and assessment of their ability to pay the debt on designated dates.
D. Application of new and amended standards:
The new and amended standards that are notified by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Companyâs financial statements are disclosed below. The Company will adopt these amendments to the standards, when they become effective.
(i) Amendments to Ind AS 1 - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Noncurrent Liabilities with Covenants
In accordance with Ind AS 1 currently applicable, breach of an immaterial covenant is ignored deciding in current vs. non-current classification of liabilities. Also, in case of breach of a material covenant of a non-current loan on or before the reporting date, the entity can obtain waiver from the |ender after the reporting date and continue to classify the loan as non-current liability.
In accordance with changes to Ind AS 1 already notif
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Indosolar Limited (âthe Companyâ), which comprise the
Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income),
Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended on that date, and notes to the Financial
Statements, including a summary of material accounting policy information and other explanatory information (âthe
Financial Statementsâ).
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 (âActâ) 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, (âInd ASâ) and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the State of Affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and its Profit and Other Comprehensive
Income, 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. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditorâs 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 ethical 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 on the
Financial Statements.
Other matters
We draw our attention to Note no. 46 of financial statement in respect of our appointment as a statutory auditor pending
to be approved by the members in the general meeting within 3 months from the date of recommendation by the board as
per Section 139 (8) of Companies Act, 2013.
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.
We have determined that there are no key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditorâs Report thereon
The Companyâs Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Companyâs annual report but does not include the Financial Statements and our
auditorsâ report thereon. The Other Information is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditorâs report.
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. 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 Financial Statements
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe
Actâ) 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, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in
accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind
AS) 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 of 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 Companyâs 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 Companyâs financial reporting process.
Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
1. 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 auditorâs 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.
2. 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 managementâs 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 Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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 auditorâs 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.

India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013, we give in the Annexure âAâ a
statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

a. We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief
were necessary for the purposes of our audit.
b. In our opinion, proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the Company so far as it appears
from our examination of those books except for the matters stated in paragraph (v) a below on reporting under
Rule 11 (g);

the Board of Directors, none of the directors is disqualified as on
March 31, 2025 from being appointed as a director in terms of Section 164 (2) of the Act.
f. With respect to adequacy of the internal financial control over financial reporting of the company and the
operating effectiveness of such controls refer our separate report in Annexure Bâ and
g. With respect to the other matters to be included in the Auditorâs Report in accordance with Rule 11 of the
Companies (Audit and Auditors) Rules, 2014, in our opinion and to the best of our information and according
to the explanations given to us:
i. The Company does not have pending litigation which would impact its financial position.
ii. The Company did not have any long-term contracts including derivative contracts for which there were
any material foreseeable losses.
iii. There were no amounts which were required to be transferred to the Investor Education and Protection
Fund by the Company.
iv. (a) The Management has represented that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, no funds (which are
material either individually or in the aggregate) have been advanced or loaned or invested (either from
borrowed funds or share premium or any other sources or kind of funds) by the Company to or in any
other person or entity, including foreign entity (âIntermediariesâ), 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
(âUltimate Beneficiariesâ) or provide any guarantee, security or the like on behalf of the Ultimate
Beneficiaries;
(b) The Management has represented, that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, no funds (which are
material either individually or in the aggregate) have been received by the Company from any person
or entity, including foreign entity (âFunding Partiesâ), with the understanding, whether recorded in
writing or otherwise, that the Company shall, whether, directly or indirectly, lend or invest in other
persons or entities identified in any manner whatsoever by or on behalf of the Funding Party (âUltimate
Beneficiariesâ) or provide any guarantee, security or the like on behalf of the Ultimate Beneficiaries;
(c) Based on the audit procedures that have been considered reasonable and appropriate in the
circumstances, nothing has come to our notice that has caused us to believe that the representations
under sub-clause (i) and (ii) of Rule 11(e), as provided under (a) and (b) above, contain any material
misstatement.
v. Based on our examination which included test checks, the company has used an accounting software
i.e SAP Hana for maintaining its books of account 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. Further, during the course of our audit we did not
come across any instance of audit trail
feature being tampered with.
Additionally, the audit trail has been preserved by the Company as per the statutory requirements for
record retention for the current year for SAP Hana. However, for the previous year, the audit trail was
not maintained by the Company for the accounting software i.e. Tally Prime, hence the audit trail is not
preserved.
vi. In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the Company has not
paid any remuneration to its directors during the current year, thus the provision of Section 197 is not
applicable to the company. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has not prescribed other details under
Section 197(16) of the Act which are required to be commented upon by us.
3 Since The Company has not declared / paid any dividend during the year, Section 123 of the Act is not applicable.

We were engaged to audit the accompanying financial statements of Indosolar
Limited, which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2022, and 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
accounts, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information (herein after referred to as "Financial Statements").
We do not express an opinion on the Financial Statements. Because of the
significance of the matters described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph,
we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a
basis for an audit opinion.
Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
1. Inventory records were not provided to us for checking. These were not physically
verified by us.
Accordingly, we were unable to satisfy ourselves by alternative means concerning
the inventory quantities held at March 31, 2022 and valuation thereof.
2. Gross block and net block of fixed assets as per books are inconsistent with data
provided in Fixed Asset register. As a result of this, we are unable to verify the
written down value of fixed assets sold during the year and resultant Profit/Loss.
There is a difference of Rs. 283.80 lakh in net fixed assets in the audited balance
sheet for the year ended 31st March 2018 and books of accounts produced before
us.
3. We were unable to confirm or verify balances of accounts payables included in
the Balance Sheet of total amount of Rs. 8,606.58 lakh respectively as at March
31, 2022.
4. Due to non - availability of certificates against Fixed Deposit in Union Bank of
India, we were unable to confirm the Fixed Deposit balance with the balance
appearing in the books of accounts. As per Books of accounts balance of Fixed
Deposit with Union bank of India was Rs. 427.86 Lakh.
5. There was a mismatch in the balance of Security Deposit with Noida Power
Company Limited appearing in Books of accounts with that of electricity bill made
available to us. As per books balance was Rs. 103.17 Lakh and as per bill Rs.
104.44 lakh.
6. Interest on borrowing in respect of facilities from Corporation bank, Union bank
of India and Bank of Baroda has not been booked in the books of account as the
company was under moratorium period upto March, 2022. Being the company
was under CIRP there is difference in total interest/ penal interest / expenses /
other charges of approximately Rs. 1,01,028.27 lakh which pertain to this year or
earlier years between claims admitted by Resolution Professional and balances in
books as on 16.04.2019. Subsequent to the year-end, on April 21, 2022, the NCLT
has approved the terms of the Resolution Plan submitted by Waaree Energies
Limited ("Waaree"), which provides, inter alia, the acquisition of the Company by
Waaree. The impact of the same has not been taken during the year.
7. The Company (being an EOU) has not been able to meet its commitment under
the Foreign Trade Policy on the basis of which the Company imported certain raw
material, stores and spares and machineries without payment of custom duty. As
on 31st March, 2022 the Company''s NFE is positive by Rs. 17,693.23 lakh without
considering the import value of amortization of Line-C. However, after
amortisation of value of line C NFE becomes negative by Rs 31,213.21 lakh. The
company is not able to achieve positive NFE during the stipulated time; the
company would be liable to duties and penalties payable in accordance with
Notification No. 52/2003 Cus. Dated 31.03.2003. Presently we are unable to
assess upon the possible impact if any on the accompanying statement.
8. In the matter of Company''s claim for eligibility of capital subsidy of Rs. 300 Crores
under SIP scheme of Govt. of India. The uncertainty exists with regard to its
quantum and receipt of claim pending its appraisal by Department of Electronics
& Information Technology (DEIT). In the absence of the reasonable assurance,
the management has not recognized the claim.
9. Company was under CIRP as explained in Note 34 of Notes to the Financial
Statements. Subsequent to the year-end, on April 21, 2022, the NCLT has
approved the terms of the Resolution Plan submitted by Waaree Energies Limited
("Waaree"), which provides, inter alia, the acquisition of the Company by Waaree.
The Board of Directors of the Company has been reconstituted on May 18, 2022
with nominees of Waaree being inducted as member of the Board.
10. The Non-adherence of IND-AS as explained in Note 42 of Notes to the Financial
Statements.
11. Referring to the approved Resolution plan by the NCLT order dated 21st April, 2022.
"Upon approval of the Resolution Plan by the NCLT, all non-compliances, breaches and
defaults of Indosolar for the period prior to the Effective Date (including but not limited
to those relating to tax), shall be deemed to be waived by the concerned Governmental
Authorities. Immunity shall be deemed to have been granted to Indosolar from all
proceedings and penalties under all Applicable Laws for any non-compliance for the
period prior to the Effective Date and no interest/penal implications shall arise due to
such non-compliance /default/breach prior to the Effective Date or even accruing after
the Effective Date, but arising out of matters or actions arising prior to the Effective
Date".
The approval of the Resolution Plan subsequent to 31 March 2022 has been considered
as a non-adjusting event for the purpose of financial statements for the year ended 31
March 2022. Pursuant to such approval of the Resolution Plan, the financial statements
for the year ended 31 March 2022 have been prepared on a going concern basis. As
required by Ind AS 10, ''Events after Balance Sheet date'', the possible financial effects of
this non-adjusting event has been mentioned under Note 34.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to the following matters:
1. Note No 10 of the financial statements regarding inventories. Closing stock of
stores, spares and other consumables has been taken as NIL.
2. Note 34 regarding verification and admission of claim by RP. As per the IBC
code the RP has to receive, collate and reconcile all the claims submitted by the
creditors of the company. The RP has verified and admitted the claims submitted by
the creditors against the company as per the Code.
Accounting impact in the books of accounts has not been made in respect to excess,
short or non-receipts of claim or liabilities for financial and operational creditor as the
Resolution plan has been approved during the subsequent year on 21st April, 2022.
3. As per "Indian Accounting Standard 36", "Impairment of Asset", if the carrying
amount of the asset is more than recoverable amount then asset need to be impaired
and as per "Indian Accounting Standard 109" on financial assets through expected
credit loss method basis these provisions we were required to seek for any
impairment obligations from management, since the Company was under the process
CIRP the management determined value in use as on 31st March 2022 by taking
valuation report of April 2019 and taking depreciation for the intervening period thus
the property, plant & equipment has been impaired by Rs.10,747.88 Lakh during the
year.
Non-Recoverable security deposits and balances with government authorities by Rs.
11.48 Lakh and Rs. 46.57 Lakh respectively. Provision for doubtful debts has been
created by Rs. 100.92 Lakh against advances to suppliers, Capital Advance and trade
receivables.
4. Note 34 and Note 43(a)(i) of the financial statements regarding approval of
resolution plan by the NCLT on 21st April 2022 consequently, preparation of financial
statements as on 31st March, 2022 on going concern basis.
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 financial statements
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters.
Except for the matters described in the Basis for disclaimer of opinion and Material
uncertainty related to going concern, we could not determine whether there are other
key audit matters or not to be communicate in our report.
Information other than financial statements and Auditor''s Report thereon
The Management of the company is responsible for the preparation of the other
information. We have not obtained the other information comprises of the Financial or
non-financial information (other than financial statements and the auditor''s report
thereon) included in an entity''s annual report.
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.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information obtained prior to the
date of this auditor''s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this
other information, are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.
Management and Those Charged with Governance''s Responsibility for the
Financial Statements
The Management of the company is 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 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, read with Companies (Accounts)
Rules, 2015.
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 for ensuring 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 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.
Auditor''s Responsibility
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 audit conducted in
accordance with Standards on Auditing 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 Standards on Auditing, 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 Act, we are also responsible for explaining 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.
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.

As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2020 ("the Order") issued

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR''S REPORT
To the Members of Indosolar Limited
1. Report on the Ind AS Financlal Statements
We have audited the accompanying Ind as financial statements of Indosolar Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31st March 2018, the statement of profit and loss {Including other comprehensive Income), the cash flow statement and the Statement of Changes In Equity for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory Information.
2. Management''s Responsibility for the Ind AS Financial Statements
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation and presentation of these Ind AS financial 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards specified in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended) 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
3. Auditor''s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these Ind AS financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143 (10) of the Act and other applicable authoritative pronouncements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the Ind AS financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Ind AS financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Company''s preparation of the Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company''s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Ind AS financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion on the Ind AS financial statements.
4. Basis for Qualification
4.1 Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
a) The Company has continued to Incur significant losses in the current year resulting in further erosion of its net worth. The Company has a negative net worth amounting to Rs. 45,652.96 lakhs as on 31st March, 2018. The Company''s current liabilities exceeds the current assets by Rs. 85,105.46 lakhs as on 31st March 2018. The Company''s long term, short-term borrowings and other financial current liabilities as at 31st March 2018 includes the balances of term loan payable to various lender banks amounting to Rs. 33,408.44 lakhs and Rs.75,452.90 lakhs respectively on becoming non-performing assets. These lender banks have exited from Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) Cell vide its letter dated 4th November, 2016. However, in absence of requisite information from the banks, we are unable to comment upon the possible impact of such exit on the carrying value of aforesaid long term, short-term borrowings, other financial current liabilities as at 31st March 2018 and interest expense (including penal interest, if any) for year ended 31st March 2018 and the consequential impact on the accompanying statement.
b) In the matter of Company''s claim tor eligibility of capital subsidy under SIP scheme of Govt. of India, the Special Leave petition (SLP) filed by the Department of Information Technology (DIT), against the order of the Hon''ble High Court of Delhi has been dismissed by the Hon''ble Supreme court vide Its order dated August 25, 2017. The uncertainty exists with regard to Its quantum and receipt of claim pending Its appraisal by Department of Information Technology. In the absence of the reasonable assurance, the management has not recognized the claim. (Refer Note No 44(A)(iii)
c) The Company (being an EOU) has not been able to meet Its commitment under the Foreign Trade Policy on the basis of which the Company Imported certain raw material, stores and spares and machineries without payment of custom duty. As on 31st March, 2018 the Company''s NFE is positive by Fts. 23,913.25 lakhs without considering the import value of amortization of LJne-C. in case, Company also amortizes the value of Line C (Commercial production yet to start) NFE as on 31st March, 2018 would be negative by Rs.5494.01 takhs. In case positive NFE not achieved during the stipulated time, the company would be liable to duties and penalties payable in accordance with Notification No. 52/2003 Cus. Dated 31.03.2003. Presently we are unable to comment upon the possible impact if any on the accompanying statement. (Refer Note No 44(B)(ii).
d) The Company has plant and machinery under installation, disclosed under CWIP, aggregating to Rs. 56,447.97 lakhs in respect of which management has recognized an impairment loss of Rs. 30,700.00 lakhs during the year ended 31st March, 2018 based on recoverable value of the assets determined using value in use method and is therefore dependent on the various factors considered in making projections by the management. In the absence of sufficient and appropriate audit evidence with respect to the uncertainty underlying the assumptions particularly the timing of expected imposition of anti/safeguard duty and installation of Line -C and commencement of its commercial production,used in the long term projections, we are unable to comment on the carrying value of aforesaid Property, Plant and Equipment and adequacy of the impairment loss recognized during the year ended 31st March, 2018 and the consequential impact, if any, on the accompanying statement ( Refer Note No 44(B)(iii).
e) During the year the Company has received the approval of One Time Settlement (''OTS'') Scheme from Union Bank of India (''Bank''). As per the OTS Scheme if the Company is unable to pay as per stipulations, the OTS proposal will stand cancelled automatically and the bank will take suitable legal steps for recovery of entire dues (Refer Note No 44{A)(i).
On the basis of overall evaluation of the above factors and considering the domestic content requirements under various Government schemes, proposed anti-dumping/safeguard duty on import of solar cell, Company''s claim for certain capital incentive from Department of Information Technology (DIT), the Company''s continuing efforts to settle with the remaining banker''s and Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited, the management believes that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. Refer Note No 43.
On the basis of overall evaluation of the above factors, in our view, the full erosion of net worth, inability of the Company to meet the financial projections due to operating and cash losses, due to continuing down trend in the solar industry, inability of the Company to meet its certain material liabilities and commitments, the fact that the impact of the government decisions would be known only in future, the uncertainty of outcome of claims, uncertainty on the ability of the Company to meet its export obligations & to install line C acquired in the financial year 2011-12 (appearing in CWIP),due to non-fulfillment of its financial obligations towards the supplier of the plant & technology, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Company may not be able to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Consequently, material uncertainties exist regarding the use of going concern assumption in preparing the financial statements.
In view of above uncertainties we are unable to comment on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and consequential classification and adjustment to the accompanying financial statements, if any, that might have been necessary had the financial statements being prepared under liquidation basis. The extent of the effect on the resultant adjustments to the accumulated losses, assets and liabilities as at the year-end is presently not ascertainable.
4.2 During the previous year two secured lenders have assigned their outstanding dues to Assets Reconstruction Company (India) Limited (ARCIL). i) Pending finalization of terms of assignment, the company has not provided interest Rs. 4934.74 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018. As a consequence to this, interest of Rs. 4934.74 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018 has been under provided, ii) On the basis of confirmation received from one of the lending bank namely Corporation Bank in the Non-Performing Assets (NPA) account, the Company''s liability to the bank is more by Rs. 2323.88 lakhs as on 31.03.2018 which prima facie appears to be primarily penal interest. Pending receipts of requisite details, their verification and reconciliation of the claim and pending OTS proposal of the Company with the bank, the Company has not provided the same.
As a consequence to this, interest of Rs. 7258.62 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018 has been under provided. Had the Company provided the interest on loans loss for the year ended 31st March, 2018 would have been higher by Rs.7258.62 lakhs and Current Liabilities and Reserve & Surplus have been under stated by the same.
5. Qualified opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our Information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph 4.1 which highlight material uncertainties, the impact of which is currently not ascertainable including the ability of the company to continue as a going concern and paragraph 4.2 regarding non provision of interest, the aforesaid Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner or equired and give a true and fair of view inconformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2018, its loss (including other comprehensive income) and other financial information for the year ended on that date.

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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS Financial Statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
Because of the in herent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management over-ride 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 in adequate 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 31 March 2018, 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.

4. Basis for Qualification
4.1 Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
a) The Company has continued to Incur significant losses in the current year resulting in further erosion of its net worth. The Company has a negative net worth amounting to Rs. 45,652.96 lakhs as on 31st March, 2018. The Company''s current liabilities exceeds the current assets by Rs. 85,105.46 lakhs as on 31st March 2018. The Company''s long term, short-term borrowings and other financial current liabilities as at 31st March 2018 includes the balances of term loan payable to various lender banks amounting to Rs. 33,408.44 lakhs and Rs.75,452.90 lakhs respectively on becoming non-performing assets. These lender banks have exited from Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) Cell vide its letter dated 4th November, 2016. However, in absence of requisite information from the banks, we are unable to comment upon the possible impact of such exit on the carrying value of aforesaid long term, short-term borrowings, other financial current liabilities as at 31st March 2018 and interest expense (including penal interest, if any) for year ended 31st March 2018 and the consequential impact on the accompanying statement.
b) In the matter of Company''s claim tor eligibility of capital subsidy under SIP scheme of Govt. of India, the Special Leave petition (SLP) filed by the Department of Information Technology (DIT), against the order of the Hon''ble High Court of Delhi has been dismissed by the Hon''ble Supreme court vide Its order dated August 25, 2017. The uncertainty exists with regard to Its quantum and receipt of claim pending Its appraisal by Department of Information Technology. In the absence of the reasonable assurance, the management has not recognized the claim. (Refer Note No 44(A)(iii)
c) The Company (being an EOU) has not been able to meet Its commitment under the Foreign Trade Policy on the basis of which the Company Imported certain raw material, stores and spares and machineries without payment of custom duty. As on 31st March, 2018 the Company''s NFE is positive by Fts. 23,913.25 lakhs without considering the import value of amortization of LJne-C. in case, Company also amortizes the value of Line C (Commercial production yet to start) NFE as on 31st March, 2018 would be negative by Rs.5494.01 takhs. In case positive NFE not achieved during the stipulated time, the company would be liable to duties and penalties payable in accordance with Notification No. 52/2003 Cus. Dated 31.03.2003. Presently we are unable to comment upon the possible impact if any on the accompanying statement. (Refer Note No 44(B)(ii).
d) The Company has plant and machinery under installation, disclosed under CWIP, aggregating to Rs. 56,447.97 lakhs in respect of which management has recognized an impairment loss of Rs. 30,700.00 lakhs during the year ended 31st March, 2018 based on recoverable value of the assets determined using value in use method and is therefore dependent on the various factors considered in making projections by the management. In the absence of sufficient and appropriate audit evidence with respect to the uncertainty underlying the assumptions particularly the timing of expected imposition of anti/safeguard duty and installation of Line -C and commencement of its commercial production,used in the long term projections, we are unable to comment on the carrying value of aforesaid Property, Plant and Equipment and adequacy of the impairment loss recognized during the year ended 31st March, 2018 and the consequential impact, if any, on the accompanying statement ( Refer Note No 44(B)(iii).
e) During the year the Company has received the approval of One Time Settlement (''OTS'') Scheme from Union Bank of India (''Bank''). As per the OTS Scheme if the Company is unable to pay as per stipulations, the OTS proposal will stand cancelled automatically and the bank will take suitable legal steps for recovery of entire dues (Refer Note No 44{A)(i).
On the basis of overall evaluation of the above factors and considering the domestic content requirements under various Government schemes, proposed anti-dumping/safeguard duty on import of solar cell, Company''s claim for certain capital incentive from Department of Information Technology (DIT), the Company''s continuing efforts to settle with the remaining banker''s and Asset Reconstruction Company (India) Limited, the management believes that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. Refer Note No 43.
On the basis of overall evaluation of the above factors, in our view, the full erosion of net worth, inability of the Company to meet the financial projections due to operating and cash losses, due to continuing down trend in the solar industry, inability of the Company to meet its certain material liabilities and commitments, the fact that the impact of the government decisions would be known only in future, the uncertainty of outcome of claims, uncertainty on the ability of the Company to meet its export obligations & to install line C acquired in the financial year 2011-12 (appearing in CWIP),due to non-fulfillment of its financial obligations towards the supplier of the plant & technology, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company''s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore, the Company may not be able to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Consequently, material uncertainties exist regarding the use of going concern assumption in preparing the financial statements.
In view of above uncertainties we are unable to comment on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and consequential classification and adjustment to the accompanying financial statements, if any, that might have been necessary had the financial statements being prepared under liquidation basis. The extent of the effect on the resultant adjustments to the accumulated losses, assets and liabilities as at the year-end is presently not ascertainable.
4.2 During the previous year two secured lenders have assigned their outstanding dues to Assets Reconstruction Company (India) Limited (ARCIL). i) Pending finalization of terms of assignment, the company has not provided interest Rs. 4934.74 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018. As a consequence to this, interest of Rs. 4934.74 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018 has been under provided, ii) On the basis of confirmation received from one of the lending bank namely Corporation Bank in the Non-Performing Assets (NPA) account, the Company''s liability to the bank is more by Rs. 2323.88 lakhs as on 31.03.2018 which prima facie appears to be primarily penal interest. Pending receipts of requisite details, their verification and reconciliation of the claim and pending OTS proposal of the Company with the bank, the Company has not provided the same.
As a consequence to this, interest of Rs. 7258.62 lakhs for the year ended 31st March, 2018 has been under provided. Had the Company provided the interest on loans loss for the year ended 31st March, 2018 would have been higher by Rs.7258.62 lakhs and Current Liabilities and Reserve & Surplus have been under stated by the same.
5. Qualified opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our Information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph 4.1 which highlight material uncertainties, the impact of which is currently not ascertainable including the ability of the company to continue as a going concern and paragraph 4.2 regarding non provision of interest, the aforesaid Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner or equired and give a true and fair of view inconformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2018, its loss (including other comprehensive income) and other financial information for the year ended on that date.

Consortium bankers in their joint lenders meeting has decided that banksâ are not considering second restructuring proposal as of now and exploring the possibility of sale to Asset Restructuring Company and/or to invoke change in management.
b) As per the Company, despite significant downturn in global market, as a result of several initiatives by Government of India, the domestic market has been showing an upturn of late resulting in the Company getting orders and hence continuation of commercial production. Based on the current orders in hand (approx. 71 MW), the Company expects to operate at the significant level of capacity till July 2016. The note of the Statement also expands on certain measures taken/expected to be announced by the Government to support domestic manufacturers in India including the domestic content requirement etc.
c) The Companyâs claim to it being eligible for certain capital incentives is still under litigation and the outcome will be known upon the conclusion of the litigation. Also refer note 40 to the financial statement.
d) The dispute with MP Urja regarding the turnkey contract and the likely impact of the customers claim is uncertain. Also refer note 41 to the financial statements.
e) The Company has not been able to meet its commitment to Special Economic Zone on the basis of which the Company imported certain raw material and machinery without payment of custom duty. Also refer note 33 to the financial statements.
On the basis of the overall evaluation of the above factors and considering the domestic content requirements and other expression of interests issued by certain Public Sector Units, procurement of recent orders and resumption of production in the second quarter of year ended 31 March 2016, a techno economic viability conducted by an external expert which forms the basis of the application for seeking a second Corporate Debt Restructuring package and favorable decision of the High Court of Delhi in relation to the Companyâs eligibility for certain capital incentive, management believes that there is no impairment in respect of the carrying value of its fixed assets including capital work in progress as at 31 March 2016 and that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.. In our view, the full erosion of net worth, inability of the Company to meet certain material liabilities and commitments, the fact that the impact of the government decisions would be known only in future, the uncertainty of outcome of claims, uncertainty regarding the second corporate debt restructuring and uncertainty on the ability of the Company to meet its export obligations create material uncertainties. Therefore, the quantum of impairment in respect of carrying value of fixed assets cannot be determined at present and material uncertainties exist regarding the use of going concern assumption in preparing the financial statements.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (âthe Actâ)
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Indosolar Limited (âthe Companyâ) as on 31 March 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
Managementâs Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The Companyâs 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 (âICAIâ). 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 Companyâs 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 Act.
Auditorsâ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companyâs 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 âGuidance Noteâ) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act, 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 auditorâs 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 Companyâs internal financial controls system over financial reporting.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting
A companyâs 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 companyâs 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 companyâs 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 31 March 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.

2. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards referred specified under section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. 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.
3. Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Act. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the financial statements. 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. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Company's preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company's Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion on the financial statements
4. Basis of Qualification
a) The Company has made a profit in the current quarter though on a full year basis it has continued to incur losses resulting in further erosion of its net worth which had already been fully eroded as at 31 March 2014. Further the Company has not met its liabilities (Rs. 26522.78 lakhs) due on the first corporate debt restructuring package and on account of purchase of materials and capital goods (Rs. 3,866.32 lakhs). The Company has therefore approached the bankers for a second corporate debt restructuring package on the basis of a technical economic viability study conducted by an external expert.
b) As per the Company, despite significant downturn in global market, as a result of several initiatives by Government of India, the domestic market has been showing an upturn of late resulting in the Company having obtained orders for 132.65 MW in the current year which has resulted in recommencement of production in the current year ended 31 March 2015 which is expected to ensure full capacity utilization upto May 2015. The note also expands on certain measures taken/expected to be announced by the Government to support domestic manufacturers in India including the domestic content requirement, viability gap funding etc.
c) The Company's claim to it being eligible for certain capital incentives is still under litigation. (Note 35)
d) The dispute with MP Urja regarding the turnkey contract and the likely impact of the customers claim is uncertain. (Note 42)
e) The Company has not been able to meet its commitment to customs authorities on the basis of which the company imported certain raw materials and machinery without payment of customs duty. (Note 35)
On the basis of its overall evaluation of the above factors and as per the techno-economic viability study conducted by an external expert, the Company believes that there is no impairment in respect of carrying value of its fixed assets including capital work in progress as at 31 March 2015 and it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. In our view, the full erosion of net worth, inability of the Company to meet certain material liabilities and commitments, the fact that the impact of the government decisions (some of which are yet to be announced) would be known only in future, the uncertainty of outcome of various litigations and claims and uncertainty regarding whether the second corporate debt restructuring package (which, as informed to us is under consideration by the bankers) would be sanctioned or not create material uncertainties (even though the procurement of certain orders during the year resulting in full resumption of production is a positive factor). Therefore, the quantum of impairment in respect of carrying value of fixed assets cannot be determined as at present and material uncertainties exist regarding the use of going concern assumption in preparing the financial statements.
5. Qualified opinion
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2015, its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
6. Emphasis of matter
Without qualifying our opinion, attention is invited to note 36, with regard to managerial remuneration paid by the Company amounting to Rs. 97 lakhs for the year ended 31 March 2015, which is in excess of the limits specified under schedule V read with section 197 of the Companies Act, 2013 and in respect of which Central Government approval as required under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, is pending. The impact if any of this on the financial statement is not ascertainable at present.

We were engaged to audit the accompanying financial statements of Indosolar Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2013, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
2. Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting standards referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956 ("the Act"). This responsibility includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
3. Auditor''s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Because of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, however, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion.
4 . Basis for disclaimer of opinion
(i) Certain consignments relating to plant and machinery, imported in connection with the expansion of the manufacturing facility, had been lying at the bonded warehouse for a significant period of time until 31st March 2012. During the year, a substantial portion of such machinery was removed and demurrage/ detention charges was paid at the time of such removal amounting to Rs.1,365.93 lakhs and the same has been considered as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset and capitalised under capital work-in-progress accordingly, as at 31st March 2013. Management is of the view that such expenses are directly attributable to bringing the machinery to its current location and condition and should be capitalized.
However, we are of the view that such charges should be treated as an expense and accordingly should not be capitalised as they cannot be considered as a cost that is directly attributable for getting the asset ready for its intended use in accordance with the requirements of AS 10 "Accounting for fixed assets". Had the Company accrued for such demurrage/ detention charges, other expense would have been higher by Rs.1,365.93 lakhs and the loss for the year ended 31st March 2013 would have been higher by the corresponding amount.
(ii) Attention is invited to note 28, which explains in detail the substantial erosion of net worth as at the balance sheet date because of which the reference required in case of erosion of more than 50% of peak net worth has been made to BIFR during the year and also explains the multiple uncertainties being faced by the company. The Company has been unable to utilise its capacity as the cost of production of solar cells continues to be higher than the prevailing market prices and the plant has remained shut for a significant part of the current year and for the other part of the year has been operational at significantly low levels of capacity utilization. Key policy decisions such as those relating to imposition of Anti Dumping Duty, Local Content requirement and Company''s eligibility for certain incentives remain unresolved.
The actual net cash inflows during the year ended 31st March 2013 are significantly lower than the projections for the same period incorporated in the first CDR package. Accordingly the cash flow projections approved as part of that CDR package can no longer be relied upon. Due to continued liquidity issues the Company has approached the bankers for a second Corporate Debt Restructuring package. The response of the banks is awaited.
Overall the short term liabilities exceed the short term assets by Rs. 7,125.31 lakhs. In addition as per the terms of the first Corporate Debt Restructuring package, an amount of Rs. 2,281.89 lakhs, representing 3% of the outstanding Term Loans, Funded Interest Term Loans, Working Capital Demand Loan and Priority Term Loan together with quarterly interest thereon shall become payable in the year ending 31st March 2014.
The above factors create multiple uncertainties and we are unable to determine their possible effects on the financial statements. We are also unable to conclude on the ability of the Company to carry on as a going concern.
5 . Disclaimer of opinion
Because of the significance of the matters described, specifically relating to the multiple uncertainties created due to factors such as response of banks to the application filed for a 2nd Corporate Debt Restructuring; key policy initiatives of the government relating to anti dumping duty and local content requirement; we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the financial statements.
6. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
1. As required by the Companies (Auditor''s Report) Order, 2003 ("the Order") issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (4A) of section 227 of the Act, we give in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the Order.
2. As required by section 227(3) of the Companies Act, 1956, we report that:
(a) as described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, we were unable to obtain all the information and explanations which to the best of our knowledge and belief were necessary for the purpose of our audit;
(b) in our opinion proper books of account as required by law have been kept by the Company so far as appears from our examination of those books;
(c) the Balance Sheet, Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement dealt with by this Report are in agreement with the books of account;

(e) on the basis of written representations received from the directors as on 31st March 2013, and taken on record by the Board of Directors, none of the directors is disqualified as on 31st March 2013, from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub-section (1) of section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956.

2. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
3. As required by the Companies (Auditor's Report) Order, 2003 ('the Order') issued by the Central Government of India in terms of Sub-Section (4A) of Section 227 of the Companies Act, 1956, we enclose in the Annexure a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 4 and 5 of the said Order.

(v) on the basis of written representations received from the Directors of the Company, as on 31st March, 2012, and taken on record by the Board of Directors, we report that none of the directors is disqualified as on 31st March, 2012 from being appointed as a director in terms of clause (g) of sub-Section (1) of Section 274 of the Companies Act, 1956;
(vi) without qualifying our opinion, attention is invited to Note 28, with regard to impairment assessment carried out by management as of 31st March, 2012 based on cash flows determined after taking into account the current business realities and which has been incorporated in the Corporate Debt Restructuring ('CDR') package approved by the consortium of banks ('CDR Cell'). Such cash flows do not indicate impairment as at 31st March, 2012.
As elaborated in the note, the achievement of such cash flows is dependent upon sustaining reasonable gross margins despite low selling prices; ability of project developers reaching financial closure; the Company being able to garner a reasonable share of the demand both under National Solar Missions and State Solar Missions and the ultimate outcome of various policy interventions that are required for the viability of the sector. The result of all of the above significant possible changes in the business dynamics and its consequent effect on the Company's cash flows will be known in the ensuing period. Accordingly, the cash flows that were prepared by management and as approved by the CDR cell have been considered by us for impairment assessment; and
(vii) Without qualifying our opinion, attention is invited to note 6 (iii) (f) that highlights that one of the lending banks has not signed the joint Master Restructuring Agreement. However for purposes of the attached financial statements, the owings to this particular bank including interest due at lower rates have been disclosed / calculated in accordance with the terms of the CDR package per Letter of Approval dated 7th March, 2012 received from the CDR cell. As informed to us the owings to this particular bank have been reclassified / interest calculated in accordance with the CDR package as the necessary stipulated majority of the CDR cell has agreed to the CDR package. Accordingly, short term borrowings comprising cash credit amounting to Rs. 1,223.92 lakhs and devolved Letter of Credit amounting to Rs. 511.57 lakhs have been reclassified as Long Term Borrowing (Rs 1,402.43) and Short Term Borrowings (Rs. 333.06 lakhs) as at 31st March, 2012. The existing term loan of Rs. 5,996.79 lakhs has been disclosed as long term borrowing with nil current maturities. The interest due w.e.f 1st July, 2011 till 31st March, 2012 at revised rates amounting to Rs. 549.73 lakhs has been reclassified as a Funded Interest Term Loan. The above reclassifications and interest calculations are subject to reconciliation and approval by this particular bank.
(viii) in our opinion, and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the said accounts give the information required by the Companies Act, 1956, in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India:
a. in the case of the Balance Sheet, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 2012;
