We have audited the accompanying Financial Statements of Tricorn Fruit Products Limited ("the
Company"), which comprise of the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2024, the Statement of Profit and
Loss (including Other Comprehensive Income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of
Cash Flows for the year then ended and notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as " 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
prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules,
2015, as amended, ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of
affairs of the Company as at 31st March, 2024, the net loss and total comprehensive income, changes in
equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the financial statements 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 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 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 financial statements.

Material Uncertainty related to Going Concern

We draw attention to note 11.3 to the financial statements regarding the preparation of the financial
statements on going concern basis for the reasons stated therein. The appropriateness of assumption of
going concern is dependent upon realization of the various initiatives undertaken by the Company and/
or the Company's ability to raise requisite finance/ generate cash flows in future to meets its obligations.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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.

1. Corporate Insolvency Proceedings as per Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC)

The Company had voluntarily filed petition under Section 10 of Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code,
2016 (IBC) with National Company Law Tribunal. The Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal,
Mumbai Bench has passed an Interim Order dated 30.04.2024 wherein the matter was reserved for
Orders.

Other Information

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in Director's Report including Annexures, Management Discussion
and Analysis Report, Corporate Governance Report and Shareholder's Information, but does not include
the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the 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 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 audit
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance, total 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 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 is 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so;

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of 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 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 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 system 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;

• 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 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.
