We have audited the accompanying standalone financial
statements of Finolex Cables Limited (the "Company"),
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025,
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 ended on
that date, and notes to the financial statements, including
a summary of 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 (the "Act") 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, ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company
as at March 31, 2025, and its profit, total comprehensive
income, its cash flows and the changes in equity 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
("SA"s) specified under section 143(10) of the Act.
Our responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor's Responsibility 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 ("ICAI") 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
made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and
the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence
obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion on the standalone 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
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. We have determined the
matters described below to be the key audit matters to be
communicated in our report.

Sr. No. Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response

We considered this as a key audit matter due to significant
judgement involved in estimating future cash flows of
the joint venture and in determining the discount rate
to be used. Changes in inputs and assumptions could

impact the results of the impairment assessment.

• With the assistance of our fair value specialists,
we evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation
methodology and discount rate by developing a range
of independent estimates and comparing those to

the discount rate selected by the management.

• We evaluated management's sensitivity analysis
around the key assumptions such as discount rate
and terminal growth rate, to ascertain the extent of
change in those assumptions that would be required
for the investment in joint venture to be impaired
further.

We assessed the adequacy of disclosures made in the

financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025.

INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE 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 Management Discussion
and Analysis, Board's Report, including Annexures
to Boards' Report, Corporate Governance and
Shareholder's information, but does not include the
consolidated financial statements, standalone financial
statements and our auditor's report thereon.

• 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 the
other information is materially inconsistent with the
standalone 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
BOARD OF DIRECTORS 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, cash
flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,

including 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 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 standalone 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 the Board of Directors either intend to liquidate
the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

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

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITY 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:

• I dentify 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 financial
controls 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 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 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.

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 financial controls 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.
