We have audited the accompanying IND AS Financial statements of Beryl Securities Limited ("the Company”),
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including statement of
other comprehensive income), the statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year
then ended, and notes to the IND AS 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 IND
AS 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 principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at 31 March 2024,
and Profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ending on
that date.
II. Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the IND AS Financial statement 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 IND AS 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 IND AS
financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules there under, 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 we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on IND AS
financial statements.
III. Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of
the IND AS financial statements for the financial year ended 31st March, 2024. These matters were addressed in
the context of our audit of the IND AS financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion on these
matters, 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.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the IND AS financial
statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the
performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
IND AS financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address
the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements.

Assessment of impairment loss allowance
(based on expected credit loss (ECL) on Loans)
(Refer Note 07 of the financial statements)
The loan balances towards demand loan to INR
88774750.12 and the associated impairment
allowances aggregating to INR 1575721.39 are
significant to the financial statements and involves
judgement around the determination of the

The audit procedures performed by us to assess
appropriateness of the impairment allowance based
on ECL on loans included the following:
• We understood and evaluated the design and
tested the operating effectiveness of the key
controls put in place by the management over:

impairment allowance in line with the requirements
of the IND AS 109 "Financial Instruments”.
Impairment allowances represent management’s
estimate of the losses incurred within the loan
portfolios at the balance sheet date and are
inherently judgmental. Impairment, based on ECL
model, is calculated using main variables, viz.
‘Staging’, ‘Exposure At Default’, ‘Probability of
Default’ and ‘Loss Given Default’ as specified under
IND AS 109.
The Company determines the allowance for credit
losses based on historical loss experience adjusted
to reflect current and estimated future economic
conditions.
The Company considered current and anticipated
future economic conditions. We identified allowance
for credit losses as a key audit matter because the
Company exercises significant judgment in
calculating the expected credit losses.
Quantitative factors like days past due, behavior of
the portfolio, historical losses incurred on defaults
and macro-economic data points identified by the
Management’s expert and qualitative factors like
nature of the underlying loan, deterioration in credit
quality, correlation of macro- economic variables to
determine expected losses, uncertainty over
realisability of security, judgement in relation to
management overlays and related Reserve Bank of
India (RBI) guidelines, to the extent applicable, etc.
have been taken into account in the ECL
computation. Given the inherent judgmental nature
and the complexity of model involved, we
determined this to be a Key Audit Matter.

and its various aspects such as determination
of Probability of Default, Loss Given Default,
Exposure At Default, Staging of Loans, etc.;
ii. the completeness and accuracy of source
data used by the Management in the ECL
computation; and
iii. ECL computations for their reasonableness.
• We, along with the assistance of the auditor’s our
expert, verified the appropriateness of
methodology and models used by the Company
and reasonableness of the assumptions used
within the computation process to estimate the
impairment provision.
• We test-checked the completeness and accuracy
of source data used.
• We recomputed the impairment provision for a
sample of loans across the loan portfolio to verify
the arithmetical accuracy and compliance with
the requirements of IND AS 109.
• We evaluated the reasonableness of the
judgement involved in management overlays that
form part of the impairment provision, and the
related approvals.
We evaluated the adequacy of presentation and
disclosures in relation to impairment loss allowance
in the IND AS Financial Statements.
|
|
Related Party Transactions
We identified related party transactions as a key
audit matter due to the significance of related party
transactions, regulatory compliance and risk of such
transactions remaining undisclosed in the IND AS
financial statements.
|
• Evaluated the Company’s policies, processes
and procedures in respect of identifying and
disclosing related party transactions.
• Read the minutes of meetings of the
shareholders, Board and Audit Committee
regarding the Company’s assessment of related
party transactions for arm’s length pricing.
• Assessed the compliance with Companies Act
2013, including authorisation and approvals as
specified in sections 177 and 188 of the
Companies Act, 2013, and Rules thereon and the
Securities and Exchange Board of India
regulations with respect to related party
transactions.
• Tested on a sample basis related party
transactions with the underlying contracts and
other documents.

IT Systems and Controls
The Company uses Information Technology (IT)
application for financial accounts and reporting
process. Any gap in the financial accounting and
reporting process may result in a misstatement,
hence we have identified IT systems and controls
over financial reporting as a Key Audit Matter.
|
• Understood the IT systems and controls over key
financial accounting and reporting systems.
• Tested the general IT controls for design and
operating effectiveness.
• Understood the changes made in the IT
environment during the year and ascertained its
effect on the IndAs financial statements controls
and accounts.
• We also assessed, through sample tests, the
information generated from these systems which
were relied upon for our audit.

IV. Emphasis of Matter
1. We draw attention to Note 11 & 44 of the IND AS financial statements, which describes that The Company
had given Rs. 20.00 Lakhs as advance against purchase of a plot of Rs. 20 Lakhs at R.R. Industrial Park,
Indore in earlier years. However, possession and registry of said properties were pending till 31st March
2024. Management has opined the said Capital Advance are good and recoverable.
2. We draw attention to Note 45 of the IND AS financial statements, The Bombay Stock Exchange has levied
fine of Rs. 2.54 Lakhs towards Non-compliance with the constitution of nomination and remuneration
committee and Non-submission of shareholding pattern within the period prescribed but management
informed as they applied for its waiver before BSE hence not provided in the books of accounts being
contingent nature.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
V. Information other than the Ind AS financial statements and Auditor’s Report thereon
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
IND AS Financial Statements and our auditors’ report thereon.
Our opinion on the IND AS 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 IND AS financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the IND AS Financial
Statements or our knowledge obtained in the 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.
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 under SA 720 ‘The Auditor’s
responsibilities Relating to Other Information’.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
VI. Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the Ind AS 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 the IND AS 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. 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 Ind As Financial Statements that give a true and fair view and are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the IND AS 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 and
management 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.
VII. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the IND AS financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind As 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
Ind As 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 IND AS 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 IND AS
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 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 IND AS 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 auditors' 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 IND AS financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the IND AS Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• We believe that the Audit Evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
Audit opinion and the IND AS Financial Statements.
• Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the IND AS 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 IND AS Financial Statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ 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.
