Auditor Qualifications and Findings​

The statutory auditors issued a modified audit opinion on the financial results for both standalone and consolidated entities. The qualification primarily centers on two material issues:

1. Export Discounts: For the financial year ended March 31, 2019, the company had extended discounts amounting to ~513.65 Crores. While the company secured necessary approvals for the reduction in receivables related to ~330.49 Crores, requisite approvals and supporting evidence for the remaining discounts of ~183.16 Crores were unavailable to the auditors.
2. Expected Credit Loss (ECL): The auditors noted that export receivables outstanding for more than nine months were restated as per the RBI exchange rate as at March 31, 2026. Although the company recognized a cumulative ECL of ~281.40 crores as a prudent accounting measure, the auditors were unable to comment on the adequacy of this provision.
