We have audited the standalone financial statements of Sumitomo Chemical India Limited (the "Company") which comprise
the standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2026, and the standalone statement of profit and loss (including other
comprehensive income), standalone statement of changes in equity and standalone statement of cash flows for the year
then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including material accounting policies and other explanatory
information.

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 ("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 2026, 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 Act.
Our responsibilities under those SAs 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
standalone 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 opinion on the standalone financial statements.

KEY AUDIT MATTER

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 standalone financial
statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Revenue Recognition - Discounts and Rebates

See Note 27 to standalone financial statements

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

The principal products of the Company comprise of agro¬
chemicals. As disclosed in note 27 to the standalone
financial statements, the revenue is measured net of any
discounts and rebates to customers.

The estimation of discounts and rebates is dependent on
various factors. These include factors such as climatic
conditions, achievement of the sales targets by the dealers
and distributors, some of which are beyond the control of
the Company.

As a result, certain discounts and rebates related to the
goods sold during the year are only finalized in future
years when the precise amounts of revenue are known
after offsetting goods returned by the customers, if any.

In view of the significance of the matter we applied the
following audit procedures in this area, among others to
obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence:

• Understanding the process followed by the Company
to determine the amount of accrual for discounts and
rebates.

• Testing the design, implementation and operating
effectiveness of Company's key IT and manual
controls over rebates arrangements, rebate payments/
settlements and Company's evaluation over the
discounts and rebates accruals.

• Performing substantive testing by selecting samples
using statistical sampling for discounts and rebates
transactions recorded during the year as well as period
end discounts and rebates accruals. Further, matching
the parameters used in the computation with the relevant
source documents.

Revenue Recognition - Discounts and Rebates

See Note 27 to standalone financial statements

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Accordingly, the variable consideration is the portion of
discounts and rebates, not directly deducted on the invoice.
Further, the value and timing of rebates for products
varies from period to period, and the schemes can span
beyond the year end. The unsettled portion of the variable
consideration results in discounts and rebates due to
customers as at year end. This requires estimation by the
Company for recognizing and measuring such amounts.
This process includes recording an accrual under other
current financial liabilities as at year end.

Therefore, there is a risk of revenue being overstated due
to fraud through manipulation of discounts and rebates
accruals recognised. This could arise from pressure the
Company may feel to achieve performance targets at
the year end. We identified the evaluation of accrual for
discounts and rebates as a key audit matter.

• Checking completeness of discounts and rebates
accruals by subsequent settlement (i.e. payments
and credit notes) made after year end which affect
FY 2025-26 and accuracy of the data used by the
Company for accruals of discounts and rebates.

• Testing a selection of discounts and rebates accruals
recorded after 31 March 2026 and assessing the period
of revenue recognition to which the discount or rebate
relates to.

• Critically assessing manual journal entries posted
to revenue to identify unusual items. Examining the
underlying documentation related to these entries.

OTHER INFORMATION

The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements and auditor's report
thereon. The annual report 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 will 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 identified
above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate
the matter to those charged with governance and take necessary actions, as applicable under the relevant laws and
regulations.

MANAGEMENT'S AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE STANDALONE 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 standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, profit/
loss and 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. 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 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 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is 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 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 and Board of Directors.

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

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.

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

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

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter
or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because
the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such
communication.
