Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary
of material accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "the financial statements").

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 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity
with the Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") prescribed under section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31st March 2025, its profit including 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 Act. Our responsibilities
under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the financial statements section of our
report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
India ('ICAI') 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 ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI's
Code of Ethics. We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the
financial statements.

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.

Description of Key Audit Matters

Key Audit Matters

How the matter was addressed in our Audit

Provision for Discount & Incentives

• Revenue is measured net of discounts, incentives and
rebates given to the customers on the Company's sales.

• The Company's presence across different marketing
regions within the country and the competitive business
environment makes the assessment of various type
of discounts, incentives and rebates as complex and
judgmental.

• Given the complexity and judgement required to assess the
year end provision for discounts, incentives and rebates
given to customers, this is a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included:

• We have assessed the Company's accounting policies
relating to revenue, discounts, incentives and rebate by
comparing with applicable Ind AS.

• We have assessed the Company's computations and
internal controls for accrual of discounts incentives and
rebates.

• On a sample basis, checked the accruals made with the
approved schemes and underlying documents.

• We have compared the historical trend of discounts and
incentives to provisions made to assess the current year
accruals.

Key Audit Matters

How the matter was addressed in our Audit

Comprehensive coverage and valuation of inventories

• Inventories constitute significant portion of current assets
of the Company as at 31st March 2025. Further, the
inventories are lying at various locations including at third
party premises.

Considering the overall amounts involved, inventory
existence and significant management judgment involved
in inventory valuation, it is considered as key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included:

• Assessment of the design, implementation and operational
effectiveness of the relevant controls in place in the
inventory management and measurement process.

• Review of outcome of physical verification of inventories
undertaken by the Company across the locations including
goods in transit and its impact on inventory valuation.

• Assessing management's cost allocation and NRV
estimates, and verifying inventories are recorded at the
lower of cost or NRV.

• Evaluation of the inventory costing methodology and
valuation policy established by the management, including
compliance with Ind AS 2 Inventories.

Information Other than the financial statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report, Business
Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does not include the financial
statements and our auditor's report thereon. These reports are expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's
report.

Our opinion on the accompanying 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 accompanying financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified
above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

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 and make other appropriate reporting as prescribed.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the financial statements

The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to
the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in
equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the 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 and Board of Directors are 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 Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

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

As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgement 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 with reference to 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 management and Board of Directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's and Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in
preparation of financial statement 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.
