We have audited the standalone financial statements of
SAMHI Hotels Limited (the "Company") which comprise
the standalone balance sheet as at 31 March 2025, 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 2025, and its
profit and other comprehensive loss, 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 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.

IMPAIRMENT ASSESSMENT OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, RIGHT OF USE ASSETS AND OTHER INTANGIBLE

ASSETS

See Note 53(a) to the standalone financial statements

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

As at 31 March 2025, the carrying value of property, plant
and equipment, right of use assets and other intangible
assets amounts to Rs. 2,250.37 million (net of impairment
loss of Rs. 63.43 million).

In accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 36
"Impairment of Assets", the Company periodically assesses
whether there is any indication for impairment in relation to
such property, plant and equipment, right of use assets and
other intangible assets at a cash generating unit (CGU) level.
If any such indication exists, the Company estimates the
recoverable amount of these assets. Further, the Company
also periodically assesses whether there are any impairment
reversals.

To assess the recoverability of the CGU, management is
required to make significant estimates and assumptions
related to forecast of future revenue, operating margins, exit
multiple and discount rates. The recoverable amount of the
CGU determined based on value in use, has been derived
from discounted cash flow model.

Our audit procedures included:

• Tested the design, implementation, and operating
effectiveness of key controls over the impairment
assessment process.

• Assessed the indicators of impairment (including
impairment reversal) in assets at CGU level based on
consideration of external and internal factors affecting
the value and performance of CGU.

• Obtained management assessment of recoverable
amount of CGU where indicator of impairment
(including impairment reversal) is identified and
performed the following procedures:

a. Obtained an understanding of the Company's
process for projecting the future cash flows for
determining the recoverable amount of CGUs.

b. Evaluated the key market related assumptions
such as discount rate and exit multiple with
assistance of our internal valuation specialist.
We also performed sensitivity analysis over these
assumptions.

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

Consequent to such impairment assessment, the Company
has recorded an impairment reversal of Rs. 54.42 million
against such assets in the current year.

In view of the significance of these assets and involvement
of judgements and estimates in impairment assessment of
property, plant and equipment, right of use assets and other
intangible assets, this area has been identified as a key audit
matter.

c. Assessed the reliability of cash flow forecasts
through a retrospective review of actual
performance in comparison to budgets.

d. Evaluated the reasonableness of the assumptions
used in the cash flow forecasts which includes
occupancy rate, average room rate and operating
margins. To consider forecasting risk we also
performed sensitivity analysis over these
assumptions.

• Evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures made in the
standalone financial statements in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards.

IMPAIRMENT ASSESSMENT OF INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARIES
See Note 53(b) to the standalone financial statements

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

In accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 36
"Impairment of Assets", the Company performs an
impairment assessment of its investment in subsidiaries.
Further, the Company also periodically assesses whether
there are any impairment reversals. As at 31 March 2025,
the net value of investment in subsidiaries is Rs. 28,822.32
million (net of impairment loss of Rs. 3,405.65 million).

The Company estimates the recoverable value of its
investment in subsidiaries where impairment risk is
identified. The recoverable amount of the investments
determined based on value in use, has been derived from
discounted cash flow model. To assess the recoverable value,
management is required to make significant estimates and
assumptions related to forecast of future revenue, operating
margins, exit multiple and discount rates.

Consequent to such impairment assessment, the Company
has recorded a net impairment reversal of Rs. 613.31 million
against such investments in the current year.

In view of the significance of these investments and
involvement of judgements and estimates, in impairment
assessment, this area has been identified as a key audit
matter.

Our audit procedures included:

• Tested the design, implementation, and operating
effectiveness of key controls over the impairment
assessment process.

• Assessed the indicators of impairment (including
impairment reversal) in investments based on
consideration of external and internal factors affecting
the value and performance of investments.

• Obtained management assessment of recoverable
amount of investments where indicator of impairment
(including impairment reversal) is identified and
performed the following procedures:

a. Obtained an understanding of the Company's
process for projecting the future cash flows
for determining the recoverable amount of
investments.

b. Evaluated the key market related assumptions
such as discount rate and exit multiple with
assistance of our internal valuation specialist.
We also performed sensitivity analysis over these
assumptions.

c. Assessed the reliability of cash flow forecasts
through a retrospective review of actual
performance in comparison to budgets.

d. Evaluated the reasonableness of the assumptions
used in the cash flow forecasts which includes
occupancy rate, average room rate and operating
margins. To consider forecasting risk we also
performed sensitivity analysis over these
assumptions.

• Evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures made in the
standalone financial statements in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards.

The key audit matter

How the matter was addressed in our audit

The Company is principally engaged in the business of
owning and operating hotels. It's revenue comprises hotel
revenue (including room revenue, food and beverage revenue
and revenue from recreation and other services).

The accounting policies for different revenue streams are set
out in Note 2.11 to the standalone financial statements.

Revenue is a key performance indicator of the Company
and there is risk of overstatement of revenue due to fraud
resulting from pressure to achieve targets and earnings
expectations.

Considering the above, we have identified revenue
recognition as a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included:

• Tested the design, implementation and operating
effectiveness of the key controls of the revenue
recognition process.

• Tested the Company's revenue recognition accounting
policies are consistent with the applicable accounting
standards.

• Using statistical sampling basis, tested the revenue
transactions recorded during the year (including year-
end cut off testing) with the underlying documents
such as invoices, bank collections and other relevant
documents, as applicable.

• Tested the journal entries relating to revenue recognised
during the year based on specified risk-based criteria,
to identify unusual or irregular items.

• Evaluated the adequacy of disclosures relating to
the revenue recognition made in the standalone
financial statements in accordance with the applicable
accounting standards.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

See Note 28 to the standalone financial statements

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 Company's
annual report, but does not include the financial statements
and auditor's report thereon. The Company's 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 and other comprehensive loss, 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.
