Loss, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the
financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so
required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Ind AS and other accounting principles
generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2023, and profit, total
comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
2. 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 Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are
independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial
statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules there under, 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.
3. 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. There are no any Key Audit Matter to be reported.
4. Emphasis of Matter
a. As per note no. 8, Inventories includes the inventory of Power Evacuation Facilities of Rs. 8.24 Crore
which is carried since last eight years. The management explained that due to change in tariff and no
power purchase policy since 2015 in wind energy sector, it could not be sold, the management expect
favorable policy from Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL) hence carried the inventory at the cost
only, as according to them, it can fetch a good price on declaration of the policy.
Same way the land for Windfarm of Rs. 6.69 crore is also carried since 2015 and it is also carried at the
cost price as per the above notion.
We are of the opinion that, if, there are no favorable policy as expected by the management, there may be
a huge reduction possible in the value of the above inventories, resulting in heavy losses.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matters.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are

audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
