We have audited the accompanying financial statements
of Data Patterns (India) Limited (the "Company"),
which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2026
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
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 31 March 2026, its profit and other 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 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 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 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
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
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.
We have determined the matters described below to be the
key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

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 Board of
Director’s report, 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 and,

in doing so, consider whether the other information is
materially inconsistent with the 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
