Independent Auditor's Report on the standalone financial results of Crest Ventures Limited pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of SEBI (Listing Obligation and Disclosures Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
To,
The Board of Directors of
Crest Ventures Limited
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial results ("the Statement") of Crest Ventures Limited (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") which includes Crest-Employee Welfare Trust for the year ended March 31, 2026 attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended ("Listing Regulations").
The statement includes the results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, being the derived figures between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year ended March 31, 2026, and the unaudited published year-to-date figures up to December 31, 2025, being the date of the end of the third quarter of the current financial year, which were subject to limited review. Also refer note 7 of the Statement for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Statement:
i. is presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations, (as amended); and
ii. gives a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the applicable Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the "Act") read with relevant rules issued thereunder, the circulars, guidelines and other directions issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from time to time (the "RBI Guidelines") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net profit after tax and other comprehensive income and other financial information for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 ('the Act'). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Results 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 results 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 ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained together with the audit evidence obtained by the auditors of partnership firms, in terms of their reports referred in "Other Matters" paragraph section below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of matters
As further elaborated and stated in note 12 of the Statement, deposits aggregating to Rs. 15,529.75 lakhs with certain counter parties are considered to be recoverable / adjustable based on the mortgage charge created over the properties, the joint venture agreement, the independent valuation report confirming the adequacy of security cover, and the pledge of shares held as collateral. We have relied upon the management explanation & judgement as regards the said matter.
Our report on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter.

Independent Auditor's Report on the standalone financial results of Crest Ventures Limited pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of SEBI (Listing Obligation and Disclosures Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
Management's and Board of Directors' Responsibilities for the statement
This statement has been prepared on the basis of the standalone annual financial statements.
The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of the Statement that give a true and fair view of the net profit / (loss) and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Ind AS, prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder, the RBI guidelines and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations. 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 Statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Statement, the 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 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 Responsibility for the Audit of the Statement
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement 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 the Statement.
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 Statement, 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 Act, we are also responsible for the purpose of expressing our opinion through separate report on the complete set of financial statements on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements in place and operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ACCOUNTS
BUREAU VERITAS
N. A. SHAH ASSOCIATES LLP
Chartered Accountants
-
Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' 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 Statement or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our opinion is 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 Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the financial results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the Statement of the Company to express an opinion on the Statement.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Statement that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Statement 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 Statement.
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.

VENTURES
| 12 | The Company had given unsecured deposits aggregating to ₹15,529.75 Lakhs with certain counterparties in connection with proposed joint development and / or arrangements during the financial years 2022-23 and 2023-24. At the time of placing the deposits, the Company had obtained and continues to hold comprehensive security in respect of these deposits, comprising the original title documents of certain underlying land parcels / properties as security, and in some cases pledge of shares provided by the counterparties and a mortgage charge over the said properties created during the quarter ended December 31, 2025. Subsequently the Company has entered into a joint venture agreement over a part of the land parcel, thereby establishing a clear development framework for monetisation of these assets. The independent valuation of the mortgaged properties and land parcels confirms that the aggregate realisable and development value of the security held is adequate to cover the carrying value of the deposits in full. Based on the mortgage charge created over the properties, the joint venture agreement, the independent valuation report confirming the adequacy of security cover, and the pledge of shares held as collateral, the management is firmly of the opinion that the carrying value of the deposits is fully recoverable and adjustable against future development obligations under the joint venture arrangements, and that no additional provision for impairment is necessary .The Company is actively pursuing development and monetisation of the underlying assets in terms of the joint venture arrangements, and expects the deposits to be fully adjusted / recovered in the ordinary course of the development cycle. |

Independent Auditor's Report on the consolidated financial results of Crest Ventures Limited pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (as amended)
Emphasis of matters
As further elaborated and stated in note 12 of the Statement, deposits aggregating to Rs. 15,529.75 lakhs with certain counter parties are considered to be recoverable / adjustable based on the mortgage charge created over the properties, the joint venture agreement, the independent valuation report confirming the adequacy of security cover, and the pledge of shares held as collateral. We have relied upon the management explanation & judgement as regards the said matter.
Our report on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter.
Management's and Board of Directors' Responsibilities for the Statement
The Statement have been prepared on the basis of the consolidated financial statements.
The Parent Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Statement that give a true and fair view of the consolidated net profit / (loss) and other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group including its associates and joint ventures in accordance with recognition and measurement principles laid down in Ind AS, prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder the RBI guidelines and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations. The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Group and its associate and joint ventures 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 the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the respective financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the Statement by the Board of Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the Statement, the respective Board of Directors of the companies, included in the Group and of its associates, are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group and of its associates and joint ventures to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the respective Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Group and of its associates and joint ventures or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and of its associates.
Auditor's responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is 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 the Statement.
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 Statement, 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, or fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
M
-
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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion through separate report on the complete set of financial statements on whether the Holding Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated 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 Board of Directors.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Board of Directors in terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 of the Listing Regulations.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of Board of Director'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 ability of the Group and its associates and joint ventures 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 Statement 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 Group and its associates and joint ventures to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the Statement represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Perform procedures in accordance with the circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the LODR Regulations to the extent applicable.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial results / financial information of the entities within the Group and its associates and joint ventures to express an opinion on the Statement. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of financial information of such entities included in the Statement of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the Statement, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Statement that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Statement 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 Statement.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entity included in the statement of which we are the independent auditors 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.

| 12 | The Group had given unsecured deposits aggregating to ₹15,529.75 Lakhs with certain counterparties in connection with proposed joint development and / or arrangements during the financial years 2022-23 and 2023-24. At the time of placing the deposits, the Group had obtained and continues to hold comprehensive security in respect of these deposits, comprising the original title documents of certain underlying land parcels / properties as security, and in some cases pledge of shares provided by the counterparties and a mortgage charge over the said properties created during the quarter ended December 31, 2025. Subsequently the Group has entered into a joint venture agreement over a part of the land parcel, thereby establishing a clear development framework for monetisation of these assets. The independent valuation of the mortgaged properties and land parcels confirms that the aggregate realisable and development value of the security held is adequate to cover the carrying value of the deposits in full. Based on the mortgage charge created over the properties, the joint venture agreement, the independent valuation report confirming the adequacy of security cover, and the pledge of shares held as collateral, the management is firmly of the opinion that the carrying value of the deposits is fully recoverable and adjustable against future development obligations under the joint venture arrangements, and that no additional provision for impairment is necessary. The Group is actively pursuing development and monetisation of the underlying assets in terms of the joint venture arrangements, and expects the deposits to be fully adjusted / recovered in the ordinary course of the development cycle. |
