d. The identity of a subject will be kept confidential to the extent possible given the legitimate needs of law
and the investigation.
e. Subjects will normally be informed of the allegations at the outset of a formal investigation and have

Counselor/Investigators and/or members of the Audit Committee and/or the Whistleblower. Subjects
shall be free at any time to engage counsel at their own cost to represent them in the investigation

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO,

THE MEMBERS OF FLUIDOMAT LIMITED,

Report on Audit of Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying the Financial Statements of FLUIDOMAT LIMITED (‘the Company’), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31st March 2024, the statement of profit and loss (including other comprehensive income), the statement of cash flow statement and the statement of changes in equity for the year then ended and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Opinion

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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, the Profit and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows 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 (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities 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 we have obtained 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.

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 Annual 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.

Responsibility of Management and Those charged with Governance 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 and presentation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the

65

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

accounting standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.

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 is 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, we are also
responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls
system 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 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.

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

66

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

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.

Annexure ‘B’ to Independent Auditors’ Report of Financial Statement

(Referred to Para 2(f) under the heading of “Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements” of our report of even date to the members of Fluidomat Ltd. for the year ended 31st March 2024)

Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of FLUIDOMAT LIMITED (“the Company”) as of 31st March, 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls over Financial Reporting, both applicable to an audit of the Internal Financial Controls and both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to these Financial Statements

A company's internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Financial Statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal financial control

73

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to these Financial Statements

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2024, based on, the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non current assets and non-current
liabilities, as the case may be.
B. Rounding of amounts

factors (including expectations of future events) that the Company believes to be reasonable under the
existing circumstances. Differences between actual results and estimates are recognized in the period in
which the results are known/materialized.The said estimates are based on the facts and events that
existed as at the reporting date, or that occurred after that date but provide additional evidence about
conditions existing as at the reporting date.
D.
Property, plant and equipment
All other items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation and impairment if any.
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as

79

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred. E. Depreciation methods, estimated useful life and residual value

Depreciation is provided on assets to get the initial cost down to the residual value, including on asset created on lands under lease. Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on pro-rata basis on Written-Down Value Method using the useful life of the assets estimated by management and in the manner prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act2013.

On the basis of technical assessment made by the management, it believes that the useful life as given above best represent the period over which the assets are expected to be used.

Leasehold land is amortized on a straight line basis over the unexpired period of their respective lease. The assets residual values and useful life are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

F. Intangible assets Intangible assets with finite useful life that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a Written-Down Value basis over their estimated useful life. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. These are included in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

G. Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and operating balances.

H. Inventories: Inventories of raw materials and stores and spares are valued at weighted average cost net of duties and finished goods and Stock-in-Process are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value and Scrap is valued at net realizable value.

I. Investments and other financial assets

(i) Classification

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

(1) Those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or

80

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

through the Statement of Profit and Loss), and
(2) Those measured at amortized cost.
A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it is held within a business model whose objective is to
hold the asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset give
rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
(ii) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value. Transaction costs of
financial assets carried at fair value through the Profit and Loss are accounted in the Statement of Profit
and Loss.
(iii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company measures the expected credit loss associated with its assets based on historical trend,
industry practices and the business environment in which the entity operates or any other appropriate
basis. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in
credit risk..
J. Impairment of non- financial Assets
The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be
impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company
estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or
cash-generating unit’s (CGU) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.
Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash
inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or Company’s assets. Where the carrying
amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is
written down to its recoverable amount.
In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account, if
available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. Impairment
losses including impairment on inventories are recognised in the statement of profit and loss. After
impairment, depreciation is provided on the revised carrying amount of the asset over its remaining useful
life.
K. Segment Reporting:
Since the Company operates in one segment only, segment reporting as required IND-AS issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India is not applicable.
L. Exceptional Items:
Exceptional Items are disclosed separately in the financial statements where it is necessary to do so to
provide further understanding of the financial performance of the company. These are material items of
income and expense that have to be shown separately due to their nature or incidence.
M. Contingent Liability:
Contingent Liabilities are disclosed in respect of possible obligations that arise from past events but their
existence will be confirmed by the occurrence or non occurrence of one or more uncertain future events
not wholly within the control of the Company or where any present obligation cannot be measured in terms
of future outflow of resources or where a reliable estimate of the obligation cannot be made.
N. Provisions:
A provision is recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of
past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. These estimates
are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

81

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate
that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in
the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.
O. Investment in Subsidiaries:
The Company has elected to measure investment in subsidiaries at cost. On the date of transition, the
carrying amount has been considered as deemed cost.
P. Leases:
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease, transfers substantially all the risks
and rewards of ownership to the lessee.
Leased assets: Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the Company at their
fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The
corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the Balance Sheet as a finance lease obligation.
A leased asset is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty
that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the
shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Since the monthly lease payments for such leases are not material, the management has decided to apply
the recognition exemption as per Para 5(b) of IND AS 116, wherein the entity need not apply the
requirements for which, the recognition and measurement of lease liability for which the underlying asset is
of low value.
Q. Revenue recognition:
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized on transfer of control of promised goods or services
to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled
to in exchange for those goods or services.
Revenue towards satisfaction of a performance obligation is measured at the amount of transaction price
allocated to that performance obligation. The transaction price of goods sold and services rendered is net
of variable consideration on account of various discounts and schemes offered by the Company as part of
the contract.
Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is highly probable that the amount will not be subject to
significant reversal when uncertainty relating to its recognition is resolved.
Sale of products:
Revenue from sale of products is recognized when the control on the goods have been transferred to the
customer. The performance obligation in case of sale of product is satisfied at a point in time i.e., when the
material is shipped to the customer or on delivery to the customer, as may be specified in the contract.
Rendering of services:

Revenue from services is recognized over time by measuring progress towards satisfaction of performance obligation for the services rendered.

R. Employee Benefits:

  • (i) Current Employee Benefit:

  • (1) Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits that are expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service are recognized in respect of employee service upto the end of the reporting period and are measured at the amount expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. The liabilities are presented as current employee benefit obligations in the balance sheet.

  • (2) Contribution to defined contribution scheme such as Provident Fund, Family Pension Fund and ESI Fund are charged to the Statement of Profit & Loss.

82

The Employee’s Gratuity Fund Scheme, which is defined benefit plan, is managed by Trust maintained with Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). The difference, if any, between the actuarial valuation of the gratuity of employees at the year end, valuation done by LIC and the balance of funds with Life Insurance Corporation of India is provided for as assets/(liability) in the books.

  • S. Foreign Currency Transactions:

  • (i) The financial statements are presented in Indian rupee (INR), which is Company’s functional currency.

  • (ii) Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are normally recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the transaction.

  • (iii) Any income or expenses on account of exchange difference either on settlement or on translation is recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

  • (iv) Remittances not received until the end of the year are considered at the closing exchange rate as applicable. Difference between realization against debtors in the subsequent year and outstanding debtors is recognized as exchange differences in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

  • T. Income tax:

  • a. Current Tax: Current tax is determined as the amount of tax payable in respect of taxable income for the year. The Company’s current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

b. Deferred Tax:

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability that effects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of transition.

  • Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled

U . Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit for the period attributed to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the effects of all potentially dilutive equity shares

V. Government Grants: The government grants in the form of subsidy are presented in the balance sheet by deducting it from the carrying amount of the eligible assets on a pro rata basis. The grant is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss over the life of a depreciable asset as a reduced depreciation expense. Capital Subsidy shown under Capital Reserves. W. Dividend:

83

FLUIDOMAT LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2023-24

Dividend distribution to the shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Company's financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company's shareholders except interim dividend. Interim dividend is recognised as a liability in the Company's financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Board of Directors.

  • X. Related Party Disclosure:

  • Disclosures, regarding related parties and transactions with them, as required in terms of Indian Accounting Standard 24, has been made at the relevant places in the notes to accounts.

  • 3A. Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions:

  • The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

(a) Property Plant & Equipment

The company has estimated the useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment and Investment Property as per the useful life prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013.

  • (b) Taxes

  • (i) The Company’s tax charge is the sum of the total current and deferred tax charges. The calculation of the Company’s total tax charge necessarily involves a degree of estimation and judgment in respect of certain items whose tax treatment cannot be finally determined until resolution has been reached with the relevant tax authority or, as appropriate, through a formal legal process.

  • (ii) Accruals for tax contingencies require management to make judgments and estimates in relation to tax related issues and exposures.

  • (iii) The recognition of deferred tax assets is based upon whether it is more likely than not that sufficient and suitable taxable profits will be available in the future against which the reversal of temporary differences can be deducted. Where the temporary differences are related to losses, the availability of the losses to offset against forecast taxable profits is also considered. Recognition therefore involves judgment regarding the future financial performance of the particular legal entity or Company in which the deferred tax asset has been recognized.

(c) Defined benefit

The cost of defined benefit plans (i.e. Gratuity benefit) is determined using valuations done by LIC. An actuarial valuation involves making various assumptions which may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the discount rate, future salary increases, mortality rates and future pension increases. Due to the complexity of the valuation, the underlying assumptions and its longterm nature, a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date. In determining the appropriate discount rate, management considers the interest rates of long term government bonds with extrapolated maturity corresponding to the expected duration of the defined benefit obligation. Further details about the assumptions used, including a sensitivity analysis.
