 Key Audit MattersKey audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of mostsignificance 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 informing 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 Matters |  | How the matter was addressed in our audit |  
|  |  |  |  
| 1. | Existence of inventory: |  | Our principal audit procedures performed, among otherprocedures, included the following:
 |  
|  | Refer Note 10 “Inventories” tothe Financial Statements.
 |  | • Obtained an understanding of the management’sprocess for safeguarding and monitoring of
 inventories including the appropriateness of the
 Company’s procedures for conducting, reconciling
 and recording physical verification of inventories
 |  
|  | The Company’s inventoriesprimarily comprise of
 jewellery of silver, non- silver
 and Diamond.
 |  | • Evaluated the design and implementation ofrelevant controls and carried out the testing of
 operating effectiveness of controls over
 conducting, reconciling and recording physical
 verification of inventories.
 |  
|  | We have considered existenceof inventory to be a key audit
 matter for our audit due to:
 1 .The high value and nature of
 inventory involved
 2. Inventory being held at
 various locations across the
 country and third-party which
 could lead to a significant risk
 of loss of inventory
 |  | •    Tested the operating effectiveness of controlsaround the IT systems for recording of inward and
 outward movements of inventory on occurrence of
 each transaction.
 •    Reviewed the reports submitted by the internalauditor and physical verification reports submitted
 by the control owners to evaluate the physical
 verification process carried out during the year on
 sample basis.
 •    On a sample basis, verified submissions relating toquantity of inventory made by the Company to
 various third parties such as banks and obtained
 the reconciliation of the same with the books.
 |  
| 2. | Revenue Recognition |  | In view of the significance of the matter, we applied thefollowing audit procedures in this area, among others,
 to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence:
 |  
|  | The Company derives asignificant portion of its
 revenue from sales made by
 franchisees to the end
 customers.
 |  | •We perused key contracts with franchisees tounderstand terms and conditions particularly relating to
 acceptance of goods.
 • Understanding the revenue recognition policies relatedto franchisee sales and assessing compliance with Ind AS
 115 (or applicable standards).
 |  
|  |  |  |  |  
|  | Given the volume oftransactions, reliance on
 third-party data from
 franchisees, and the
 application of judgment in
 recognizing revenue under the
 applicable financial reporting
 framework (e.g., Ind AS 115),
 we identified revenue
 recognition from franchisee
 sales as a key audit matter.
 |  | •    Evaluating the design and implementation of relevantinternal controls over revenue recording and data
 integration from franchisee systems. These include
 general IT controls and key application controls over the
 IT system which govern revenue recognition, including
 access controls, controls over program changes and
 interfaces between different system.
 •    Performing substantive analytical procedures onfranchisee revenue trends and investigating any unusual
 variances.

 Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements does not cover the other informationand we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
 In connection with our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility is toread 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 misstatementof this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in

 Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Standalone FinancialStatements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) ofthe 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 provision of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company
 and for preventing and detecting the 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 control, 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, management and Board of Directors areresponsible 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 Company’s Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company’s financialreporting process.
 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial StatementsOur objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone FinancialStatements 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 willalways detect a material misstatement when it exists.
 Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually orin 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 maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
 •    Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone FinancialStatements, 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 abasis 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 control relevant to the audit in order todesign 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 ofaccounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
 •    Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis ofaccounting 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 FinancialStatements, 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, theplanned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant
 deficiencies in internal financial control that we identify during our audit.
 We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have compliedwith 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 thosematters 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.
