INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT ON THE STATEMENT OF UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF AETHER INDUSTRIES LIMITED

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of Aether Industries Limited ("Holding Company") and its subsidiaries (the Holding and its subsidiaries together referred to as "the Group") for the quarter and nine months period ended 31%! December, 2025 ("the Statement") being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended.
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Management and approved by the Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ('Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity", issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAl). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of personnel responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
    1. We also performed procedures in accordance with the circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, to the extent applicable.
    1. The Statement includes the results of the following entities:
  • a) Aether Industries Limited the Holding Company
  • b) Aether Speciality Chemicals Limited Wholly Owned Subsidiary
    1. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standard and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

7. Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 6 to the Statement, which describes the fire incident that occurred during Q3 of FY 2024 at Company's manufacturing facilities located in Sachin, Surat. As stated in the note, the Company is in the process of assessing the actual physical damage to its fixed assets arising from the said incident and, accordingly, the financial impact, if any, on account of loss of fixed assets and settlement of insurance claim has not yet been determined and no adjustment has been recognised in the Statement for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2025. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
