Independent Auditor’s Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Standalone Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended

Review Report to The Board of Directors GHCL Limited

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited standalone financial results of GHCL Limited (the “Company”) for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and year to date from April 01, 2022 to September 30, 2022 (the “Statement”) attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the “Listing Regulations”).

  2. The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the Statement in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) “Interim Financial Reporting” prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The Statement has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.

  3. 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. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons 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 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.

  4. Based on our review conducted as 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 Standards (‘Ind AS’) specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

Pursuant to the Business Transfer Agreement dated December 06, 2021 and Amendment to Business Transfer Agreement dated March 30, 2022 with Indo Count Industries Limited (ICIL), the Company on April 2, 2022 had transferred its Home textile Business (comprising of weaving, processing, cutting and sewing of home textiles products, hereinafter referred as “HT Business”) as a going concern on a slump sale basis during the previous quarter after satisfaction of conditions precedent as stipulated in these agreements at a consideration of Rs. 562.34 Crore. Out of the same, the Company had received Rs. 551.34 crores from the said consideration as on June 30, 2022 and balance Rs. 11 Crore during the quarter ended September 30,2022. In addition, Grace Home Fashions LLP (‘GHF’), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company also transferred its identified assets to (i.e., inventory and intellectual property) to Indo Count Global Inc., USA (US subsidiary of ICIL) on April 2, 2022 at a consideration of Rs. 31.77 Crore pursuant to pursuant to fulfilment of conditions precedent as per the Asset Transfer Agreement (ATA) dated December 6, 2021 and Amendment agreement (‘AATA’) dated March 30, 2022 for transfer of its identified assets. Out of the same, the GHF has received Rs. 30.93 Crore as on September 30, 2022 and Rs 0.84 Crore is receivable as at quarter end.

Consequent to the above, resultant profit of Rs. 52.47 crores (net of current and deferred tax impact of Rs. 15.79 crores) on such sale of the HT Business had been recognised under Exceptional Items during the quarter ended June 30,2022. The Company's current tax obligation arising from such sale had been booked in quarter ended June 30, 2022 in accordance with the provision of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

Further, during the current quarter, GHF has decided to close its business operations and has accordingly reestimated its dues & obligations including amount payable on termination of its leasehold premises, expected realisation on inventory and balance recoverable from customer etc. In light of loss incurred by GHF towards above re-estimation the Company has reassessed its balance recoverable from GHF and accordingly has recorded an exceptional loss of Rs.8.77 crore (net of tax Rs. 2.95 crore) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Further, in the unaudited standalone financial results, the net results of HT business had been disclosed separately as discontinued operation as required by Indian Accounting Standard (ind AS) 105 Asset Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations and Schedule Ill to the Companies Act, 2013. Consequently, the Company's Statement of Profit and Loss for the period ended September 30, 2022 pertains to its continuing operations only and for that purpose the results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 had to be restated accordingly.

The following information relating to discontinued operations

Independent Auditor’s Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended

Review Report to The Board of Directors GHCL Limited

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of GHCL Limited (the “Holding Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as “the Group”), for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and year to date from April 01, 2022 to September 30, 2022 (the “Statement”) attached herewith, being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the “Listing Regulations”).

  2. The Holding Company’s Management is responsible for the preparation of the Statement in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) “Interim Financial Reporting” prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The Statement has been approved by the Holding Company’s Board of Directors . Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.

  3. 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. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons 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 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.

We also performed procedures in accordance with the Circular No. CIR/CFD/CMD1/44/2019 dated March 29, 2019 issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.

  1. The Statement includes the results of the following entities: a) GHCL Limited (Holding Company) b) GHCL Textiles Limited (Subsidiary) c) Grace Home Fashions LLC (Subsidiary)

  2. d) Dan River Properties LLC (Subsidiary)

  3. 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 recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind AS’) specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

==> picture [161 x 15] intentionally omitted <==

  1. The accompanying Statement includes unaudited interim financial results /statements and other unaudited financial information in respect of three subsidiaries, whose interim financial results/statements and other financial information reflect total assets of Rs 32.82 crore as at September 30, 2022, and total revenues of Rs 0.23 crore and Rs 16.32 crore, total net profit/(loss) after tax of Rs. (8.00) crore and Rs. 1.05 crore, total comprehensive income/(loss) of Rs. (8.50) crore and Rs. 0.13 crore, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and the period ended on that date respectively and net cash outflows of Rs. 0.74 crore for the period from April 01,2022 to September 30, 2022.

The unaudited interim financial results and other unaudited financial information of these subsidiaries have not been reviewed by any auditor(s) and have been approved and furnished to us by the Management and our conclusion on the Statement, in so far as it relates to the affairs of these subsidiaries is based solely on such unaudited interim financial results and other unaudited financial information. According to the information and explanations given to us by the Management, these interim financial results are not material to the Group.

Our conclusion on the Statement in respect of matters stated in para 6 above is not modified with respect to our reliance on the work done and the reports of the other auditors and the financial results/financial information certified by the Management.
