We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & Chemicals
Limited (the "Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss, including Other
Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to
the standalone financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter
referred to as "the standalone financial statements").

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid standalone financial
statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013, as amended (the "Act") in the manner so required and give a
true and fair view in conformity with Indian Accounting Standard prescribed under Section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standard) Rules 2015 as amended ("Ind AS") and the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2025, the 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 of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs), as specified
under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the 'Auditor's Responsibilities for
the Audit of the standalone financial statements' section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the
'Code of Ethics' issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to
our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act 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 audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to note 43(B) to the standalone financial statements regarding a matter relating to demand of ' 21,370 crores
(including interest and penalty computed till November 30, 2021) on the Company by Department of Telecommunications (DoT)
towards Very Small Aperture Terminal ('VSAT') and Internet Service Provider ('ISP') Licenses fee relating to earlier years. Based on the
legal assessment in consultation with Senior Advocates of the said demand, the Company is of the view that no provision is required
to be made at this point of time in respect of the above matter.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial
statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For
each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Recognition and measurement of Urea Subsidy Income

The Urea Subsidy Income is recognized and measured by
the Company in accordance with notification / circular/
policies issued by the Department of Fertilizers, Government
of India.

During the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company has
recognized Urea Subsidy Income of ' 1,829.89 crores and
has outstanding Urea subsidy receivables of ' 163.48 crores.
The measurement of Urea Subsidy Income involves
application of relevant regulatory pronouncements and
notifications, understanding of applicable energy norms, and
management estimates / judgements including in respect
of escalation / de-escalation in the price of the inputs, etc.
for the year. The recognised subsidy income may deviate
on account of revision / changes in such interpretation,
estimates and judgements, arising from notification by the
Department of Fertilizers.

Accordingly, recognition and measurement of subsidy
income is determined to be a key audit matter for our audit
of standalone financial statements.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• Assessed the Company's revenue recognition policy for Urea

Subsidy Income.

• Understood, evaluated and tested, on a sample basis, the

design and operating effectiveness of key internal controls over
recognition and measurement of Urea Subsidy Income.

• Reviewed the relevant regulatory pronouncement
in respect of Urea Subsidy Income and verified, on
a sample basis, the claims filed by the Company
along-with underlying accounting evidence in respect of such
income.

• Tested calculations for Urea Subsidy Income and reviewed

estimates for escalation / de-escalation by comparing with actual
production cost relevant for measurement of subsidy amount
including final adjustment related to earlier years.

• Reviewed follow-ups made by the Company with the Department
of Fertilizers, Government of India and management assessment
of recoverability of aged balances.

• Tested the collections made during the year as well as subsequent

period against such subsidy income recognized by the Company.

• Assessed the appropriateness of disclosures in the Standalone

financial statements in respect of Urea Subsidy Income.

Valuation of Inventories, including Stores and Spares

The Company has total inventory of ' 1,257.21 crores which
comprises of raw materials inventory ' 362.97 crores,
work-in-progress inventory ' 81.49 crores, finished goods
inventory ' 143.65 crores, trading inventory ' 2.24 crores
and stores and spares inventory ' 666.86 crores (including
coal inventory of ' 193.50 crores and provision for excess
inventory of ' 43.61 crores) as at March 31,2025.

The Company has created the above mentioned provision
of ' 43.61 crores for excess inventory of stores and spares
based on physical verification and on evaluation of its
usability including for aged items.

Accordingly, appropriateness of the estimates used to
identify the valuation of inventories, including stores and
spares is determined to be a key audit matter for our audit
of standalone financial statements.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• Reviewed the management policy for physical verification and the

documents related to management's physical count procedure
actually followed during the year.

• Understood the management process for assessment of value

in use/ net realisable value of various class of inventories and
making provision for excess inventory.

• Reviewed the management's judgement applied in estimating
the value of excess inventory for stores & spares, taking into
consideration management assessment of the present and future
condition of the inventory.

• Performed substantive audit procedures that included review of

working prepared by the management for valuation of inventories
and observed that appropriate allocation of fixed cost and variable
cost is done in respect of Finished Goods and Work in Progress
which is in lines with prevailing accounting standards.

2025 and our procedures did not identify any material exceptions.

Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Evaluation of uncertain tax demand positions and other legal litigations

The Company has material uncertain tax demand positions
including matters under dispute which involves
significant judgment to determine the possible outcome
of these disputes and significant open legal proceedings
under arbitration and courts for various matters with its
contractors / vendors and in Government departments,
continuing from earlier years which are part of Contingent
Liability.

Due to complexity involved in these litigation matters,
management's judgement regarding recognition and
measurement of provisions for these legal proceedings is
inherently uncertain and might change over time as the
outcomes of the legal cases are determined.

Our audit procedures included the following:

• Obtained details of completed tax assessments and demands as
at 31 March, 2025 from the management.

• Inquired with the management, including in- house legal experts.

• Reviewed the minutes of the meetings and those charged with
governance, and correspondence between the Company and
the external legal experts and other evidence to corroborate
management assessment in respect of disputed tax matters.

in-house legal expert and external legal opinions obtained by the
Company (where considered necessary) on both, the probability
of success in the aforesaid cases, and the magnitude of any
potential loss.

• Discussed with the management on the development in the

litigations during the year ended 31 March 2025 and required
provision for contingencies have been made during the financial
year 2024-25.

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

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in
the Board's report (i.e. Directors' Report, Corporate Governance, Management Discussion and Analysis and Shareholder's information),
but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The above referred information is expected
to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's report.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the Other Information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate
the matter to those charged with governance as required under SA 720 (Revised) 'The Auditor's responsibilities Relating to Other
Information'.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation
of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally
accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under Section 133 of the Act read with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended including the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules,
2020. 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 the 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and
fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high
level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the
audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,

design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one
resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal
control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the

circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company
has adequate internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements in place and the operating
effectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures

made by the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence

obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in
our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events
or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the disclosures, and

whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it
probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced.
We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of
our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit
and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in
the audit of the standalone financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March, 2025 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.
