Independent Auditor's Report on Audit of Standalone Annual Financial Results
To
The Resolution Professional of
Premier Limited (A Company under corporate insolvency resolution process)
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results
Qualified Opinion
We have audited the accompanying standalone financial results of Premier Limited ('the Company') for the year ended March 31, 2026 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations & Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2015, as amended (the "Listing Regulations").
The Honorable National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench, admitted the petition for initiation of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under section 7 of the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, 2016 ('the Code') against the Company vide its order dated January 29, 2021 and appointed an Interim Resolution Professional ('IRP') to manage the affairs of the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Code. The Committee of Creditors ('CoC') of the Company, in its meeting held on March 4, 2021 confirmed the IRP as the Resolution Professional ('RP') for the Company. In view of the pendency of the CIRP, the management of affairs of the Company and power of the Board of Directors are now vested with the RP. Further as mentioned in note no. 1 and in terms of Section 14(4) and 31(3) of the Code, until the resolution is approved by the Honorable NCLT, moratorium shall continue to be in effect and accordingly, the RP shall continue to manage the operations of the Company on a going concern basis during the CIRP. These standalone financial results have been prepared by the management of the Company and certified by the RP.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except as stated in the Basis of Qualified opinion paragraph below, these annual standalone financial results:
(i) are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations in this regard; and
(ii) give a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition & measurement principles laid down in the applicable accounting standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 (the "Act") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information for the year ended to March 31, 2026.
Basis for Qualified Conclusion
- We draw your attention to the fact that the Net Worth of the Company has been completely eroded as at the year ended March 31, 2026. Further, the company has incurred a further loss of Rs. 587 Lakhs (excluding other comprehensive income) for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Further, the operations of the company have continued to remain suspended during the year ended March 31, 2026 owing to the lack of working capital available to the company as mentioned in note no. 5 to these standalone financial results.

These conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. Despite these circumstances, for reasons mentioned in note no. 4, these standalone financial results have been prepared on a going concern basis.
-
The Company has not assessed impairment of carrying value of tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 36 on "Impairment of Assets". We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the recoverable amount of the Company's tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets. Consequently, we are unable to determine whether any adjustments to carrying value are necessary and consequential impacts on the statement. Further, as mentioned in note no. 3 to this Statement, the CoC has approved the resolution plan and approval petition for the same is pending before the NCLT. However, we are not privy to the terms & conditions of the approved plan as the same has not been made available to us for our perusal. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether any provisions are required for impairment in the value of the assets or cessation of any liabilities.
-
In accordance with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Code), the Resolution Professional ("RP") has to receive, collate and admit the claims submitted by the creditors as a part of Corporate Insolvency Process ("CIRP"). Such claims can be submitted to the RP till the approval of the resolution plan by the CoC. The amount of claim admitted by the RP may be different than the amount reflecting in the financial statements of the Company as on March 31, 2026. Pending final outcome of the CIRP, no adjustments have been made in these financial statements for the differential amount, if any. Hence, consequential impact, if any, is currently not ascertainable and we are unable to comment on possible financial impacts of the same.
-
We draw your attention to the fact that updation of personnel records was carried out based on the availability of the documents, data, etc. In addition, employee dues including retirement / termination benefits were calculated based on the available data and only till the initiation of the CIRP. Moreover actuarial valuation for gratuity & privileged leave was conducted only till the nine month ending December 31, 2020 being the quarter immediately preceding the initiation of CIRP. The Company has also not assessed the impact of the new labour codes notified by the Government of India on November 21, 2025. The Labour Codes, amongst other things, introduce changes including a uniform definition of wages and enhanced benefits relating to leave and gratuity payouts.
-
As mentioned in note no. 1 to this Statement, the Company is under CIRP for the entire financial year. Under the CIRP, all the expenses incurred / payments made during the year by the Company are to be approved by the CoC. However, the relevant records such as the minutes of the CoC meetings approving the expenses / payments have not been provided to us. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether all the expenses incurred during the year have been approved by the CoC.
-
The Company has not appointed a whole time Company Secretary for a period exceeding 6 months since the resignation of the previous Company Secretary as required by the provisions of Section 203 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the other relevant rules made thereunder, thereby violating the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
-
The Company has not appointed an internal auditor, as required under the provisions of section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013 during the year under review, thereby violating the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
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 Standalone 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 ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements 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 Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion
Disclaimer of Opinion
According to the information & explanation given to us, for the period pertaining subsequent to the initiation of CIRP as mentioned in note no. 1 to these standalone financial results, due to non-availability of the process owners & practical difficulty in obtaining sufficient appropriate information relating to internal controls over financial reporting, we are unable to opine as to whether the Company had adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and whether such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at March 31, 2026, 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.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw your attention to the fact that there has been a delay in transferring unclaimed matured fixed deposits & interest thereon amounting to Rs. 46.55 lakhs to the Investor Education & Protection Fund ("IEPF") in compliance with the provisions of section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013, which was due for transfer as at March 31, 2026. As mentioned in note no. 6 to this Statement, the Company is in the process of transferring the said amount to the IEPF.
Our Conclusion on the Statement is not modified in respect of this matter
Management's and Resolution Professional's Responsibility for the Statement
The Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company's Management and the Resolution Professional, has been prepared on the basis of the standalone financial statements. The Company's Management & Resolution Professional are responsible for the preparation of these standalone financial results that give a true and fair view of the net loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. 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 standalone financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial results, the Company's Management and Resolution Professional 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 Company's Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Under Section 20 of the Code it is incumbent upon the Resolution Professional to manage the operations of the Company as a going concern upon initiation of CIRP and the financial results which have been prepared on going concern basis have been considered by the Resolution Professional accordingly.
CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS
The Company's Management and Resolution Professional are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial results 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial results.
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 standalone financial results, 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 expressing our opinion through a separate report on the complete set of financial statements on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls. Refer our 'Disclaimer of Opinion' paragraph above;
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors/Resolution Professional;
- Evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of disclosures made by the Company's Management & Resolution Professional in terms of the requirements specified under Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' / Resolution Professional'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 standalone financial results 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; and
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial results, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Results that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone Financial Results 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 Standalone Financial Result.

Notes:
1) The Company is undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (“CIRP”) vide order no. C.P. (IB) 1224/MB/2020 pronounced on January 29, 2021 by The Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal (“NCLT”), Mumbai Bench under the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (the Code). Pursuant to the order, the management of affairs of the Company and powers of the Board of Directors of the Company are now vested with the Resolution Professional (“RP”) who is appointed by the Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal and reconfirmed by COC in first COC meeting. As the powers of the Board of Directors are suspended since CIRP initiation, and erstwhile Management has resigned, these financial results have been prepared by the company and have been signed by the Resolution Professional Ms. Kanak Jani [IP Registration no.IBBI/IPA-001/IP-P-01757/2019-2020/12685]. These audited standalone financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026 have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind-AS”) as specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
2) The above audited standalone financial results for the quarter & year ended March 31, 2026 were audited by the Statutory Auditor of the Company, under Regulation 33 of Securities & Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended. A qualified report was issued by them thereon.
3) The Committee of Creditors (COC), in its 17th meeting held on January 22, 2022, discussed the Resolution plans submitted by the seven prospective resolution applicants (PRA) and had approved the resolution plan submitted by Fab Metals Pvt. Ltd. with 92.47% assent through e-voting. The same has already been disclosed to the Stock Exchanges on January 26, 2022. Accordingly, the further approval from the Hon’ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench is in progress currently.
4) The Company is being managed as a going concern during the CIRP. As mentioned in note no. 2 above the CIRP period shall continue till the Resolution Plan accepted by the CoC is approved by Hon’ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench. The future prospects of the Company would be determined on the completion of CIRP. Therefore, the financial results have been prepared on a going concern basis.
5) The manufacturing activities at Company’s plant at Chakan remain suspended since March 3, 2020 due to lack of working capital as reported during the previous quarters/year end. Further, the operations remain affected due to the inability of the Company to function normally and continuing suspension of production post mid March 2020.
6) There has been a delay in transferring unclaimed matured fixed deposits & interest thereon amounting to Rs. 46.55 lakhs to the Investor Education & Protection Fund (“IEPF”) in compliance with the provisions of section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013, which was due for transfer as at March 31, 2026. However, the entire amount is already funded by the Company and maintained in designated bank accounts. We are in the process of transferring the said amount to the IEPF as per Section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013.
7) The Company has sold a land parcel situated at Village Usarghar to Horizon Limited on 31.12.2012. A portion of land, measuring 860 sq meters was acquired by Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation (DFCC), and the matter was under hearing before the Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO). As per the written understanding between the Company and M/s. Horizon Limited, the compensation receivable from the government would accrue and be credited to Premier Limited. Pursuant to the proceedings, compensation of Rs 164 Lakhs (including interest thereon) was awarded and finally released to the Company on July 14, 2025. This amount has been treated as other income in these standalone financial results for the year ended March 31, 2026.
8) The figures of the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in this financial results are the balancing figures between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year.
9) Previous period/year figures have been regrouped / restated and / or rearranged wherever necessary.

|---|---|
| Type of Audit Qualification | Qualified |
| Frequency of qualification: | Showing since Quarter 2 of 2020-21 |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management's Views | N.A. |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | The Networth of the Company has been completely eroded as at the year ended March 31, 2026. Further, the company has incurred a loss of Rs 587 Lakhs (excluding other comprehensive income) for the year ended March 31, 2026. Further the liabilities of the Company far exceed the realizable value of assets owned by the company. In addition, CIRP has been initiated in case of the Company by Hon'ble NCLT Mumbai Bench and currently the CIRP is in progress. These conditions state that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. |
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | The Company has incurred losses, its liabilities exceed total assets and its net worth has been fully eroded as at March 31, 2026. The Hon'ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench has admitted a petition to initiate insolvency proceeding against the Company under the Code. As per the Code, it is required that the Company be managed as a going concern during the CIRP. Further, the CIRP period continues to be in effect till the CoC approved Resolution Plan of the Company is approved by the NCLT. The future prospects of the Company would be determined on the completion of CIRP. Hence, in view of the above facts and considering the smooth progress of the CIRP with submission of Resolution Plans is underway currently, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Erosion of networth casts significant doubts on the entities ability to continue as a going concern. |

| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management's Views | N.A. |

3)
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | The Company has not assessed impairment of carrying value of tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 36 on "Impairment of Assets". We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the recoverable amount of the Company's tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets. Consequently, we are unable to determine whether any adjustments to carrying value are necessary and consequential impacts on the statement. Further, as mentioned in note no. 2 to this Statement, the CoC has approved the resolution plan and approval petition for the same is pending before the NCLT. However, we are not privy to the terms & conditions of the approved plan as the same has not been made available to us for our perusal. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether an provisions are required for impairment in the value of the assets or cessation of any liabilities. |
|---|---|
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | The Company is under CIRP, and the resolution plan has been submitted by the RP to the Honorable NCLT, Mumbai bench for their approval of the same. Pending the approval of the plan, the same is a confidential document and accordingly no adjustments to the value of the assets has been made in these financial statements. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Not providing for impairment loss affects the true and fair view of the financial statements |
| Details of Audit Qualification | Non Compliance with Ind-As 19 |

| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management's Views | N.A. |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | Employee dues including retirement / termination benefits were calculated based on the available data and only till the initiation of the CIRP. Moreover actuarial valuation for gratuity & privileged leave was conducted only till the nine month ending 31st December, 2020 being the quarter immediately preceding the initiation of CIRP. The Company has also not assessed the impact of the new labour codes notified by the Government of India on November 21, 2025. The Labour Codes, amongst other things, introduce changes including a uniform definition of wages and enhanced benefits relating to leave and gratuity payouts |
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | Company had suspended its operation effective 03.03.2020 and the workmen union appealed before the industrial court, Pune followed by an appeal before the Hon'ble Bombay High Court against non-payment of wages arising out of the said suspension of operations. The Company has made provision for workmen wages and dues at 50% of their monthly wages till CIRP commencement date. Accordingly an amount of Rs.329.62 Lakhs would be contingent upon the outcome of the petition of the union under hearing before the Bombay High Court. While this matter is in progress, workmen union has also filed another application for the same matter before the NCLT, Mumbai during the current year which is pending for hearing. However, the workmen in their application filed before the NCLT, Mumbai have claimed full wages even for the CIRP period. Since, the Company is under CIRP, quantifying the amount of payment contingent on the order of the NCLT, Mumbai bench is not possible. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Not making provision for employee benefits in accordance with Ind-As affects the true and fair view of the financial statements |

Independent Auditor's Report on Audit of Consolidated Annual Financial Results
To
The Resolution Professional of
Premier Limited (A Company under corporate insolvency resolution process)
Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results
Qualified Opinion
We have audited the accompanying statement of consolidated financial results of M/s. Premier Limited (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) and its associate (the Company and its associate together referred to as “the Group”) for the year ended March 31, 2026 (the “Statement”) attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations & Disclosure Requirements) Regulations 2015, as amended (the “Listing Regulations”).
The Honorable National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench, admitted the petition for initiation of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under section 7 of the Insolvency & Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (‘the Code’) against the Holding Company vide its order dated January 29, 2021 and appointed an Interim Resolution Professional (‘IRP’) to manage the affairs of the Holding Company in accordance with the provisions of the Code. The Committee of Creditors (‘CoC’) of the Company, in its meeting held on March 4, 2021 confirmed the IRP as the Resolution Professional (‘RP’) for the Company. In view of the pendency of the CIRP, the management of affairs of the Holding Company and power of the Board of Directors are now vested with the RP. Further as mentioned in note no. 1 and in terms of Section 14(4) and 31(3) of the Code, until the resolution is approved by the Honorable NCLT, moratorium shall continue to be in effect and accordingly, the RP shall continue to manage the operations of the Holding Company on a going concern basis during the CIRP. These consolidated financial results have been prepared by the management of the Company and certified by the RP.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except as stated in the Basis of Qualified opinion paragraph below, these annual consolidated financial results:
- include the annual financial results of associate company:
- PAL Credit & Capital Limited
- are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations in this regard; and
- give a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition & measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standards (‘Ind As’) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated net loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group for the quarter & year ended March 31, 2026.
Basis for Qualified Opinion
S. M. DADIA & ASSOCIATES LLP
- We draw your attention to the fact that the Net Worth of the Company has been completely eroded as at the year ended March 31, 2026. Further, the company has incurred a further loss of Rs. 587 Lakhs (excluding other comprehensive income) for the year ended March 31, 2026.
Further, the operations of the company have continued to remain suspended during the year ended March 31, 2026 owing to the lack of working capital available to the company as mentioned in note no. 5 to these consolidated financial results.
These conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. Despite these circumstances, for reasons mentioned in note no. 4, these consolidated financial results have been prepared on a going concern basis.
-
The Company has not assessed impairment of carrying value of tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 36 on "Impairment of Assets". We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the recoverable amount of the Company's tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets. Consequently, we are unable to determine whether any adjustments to carrying value are necessary and consequential impacts on the statement. Further, as mentioned in note no. 3 to this Statement, the CoC has approved the resolution plan and approval petition for the same is pending before the NCLT. However, we are not privy to the terms & conditions of the approved plan as the same has not been made available to us for our perusal. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether any provisions are required for impairment in the value of the assets or cessation of any liabilities.
-
In accordance with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Code), the Resolution Professional ("RP") has to receive, collate and admit the claims submitted by the creditors as a part of Corporate Insolvency Process ("CIRP"). Such claims can be submitted to the RP till the approval of the resolution plan by the CoC. The amount of claim admitted by the RP may be different than the amount reflecting in the financial statements of the Company as on March 31, 2026. Pending final outcome of the CIRP, no adjustments have been made in these financial statements for the differential amount, if any. Hence, consequential impact, if any, is currently not ascertainable and we are unable to comment on possible financial impacts of the same.
-
We draw your attention to the fact that updation of personnel records was carried out based on the availability of the documents, data, etc. In addition, employee dues including retirement / termination benefits were calculated based on the available data and only till the initiation of the CIRP. Moreover actuarial valuation for gratuity & privileged leave was conducted only till the nine month ending December 31, 2020 being the quarter immediately preceding the initiation of CIRP. The Company has also not assessed the impact of the new labour codes notified by the Government of India on November 21, 2025. The Labour Codes, amongst other things, introduce changes including a uniform definition of wages and enhanced benefits relating to leave and gratuity payouts
-
As mentioned in note no. 1 to this Statement, the Company is under CIRP for the entire financial year. Under the CIRP, all the expenses incurred/ payments made during the year by the Company are to be approved by the CoC. However, the relevant records such as the minutes of the CoC meetings approving the expenses / payments have not been provided to us. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether all the expenses incurred during the year have been approved by the CoC.
-
The Company has not appointed a whole time Company Secretary for a period exceeding 6 months since the resignation of the previous Company secretary as required by the

provisions of Section 203 of the Companies Act, 2013 and the other relevant rules made thereunder, thereby violating the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
- The Company has not appointed an internal auditor, as required under the provisions of section 138 of the Companies Act, 2013 during the period under review, thereby violating the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
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 Consolidated Financial Results section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements 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 Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Disclaimer of Opinion
According to the information & explanation given to us, for the period pertaining subsequent to the initiation of CIRP as mentioned in note no. 1 to these consolidated financial results, due to non-availability of the process owners & practical difficulty in obtaining sufficient appropriate information relating to internal controls over financial reporting, we are unable to opine as to whether the Company had adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting and whether such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at March 31, 2026, 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.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw your attention to the fact that there has been a delay in transferring unclaimed matured fixed deposits & interest thereon amounting to Rs. 46.55 lakhs to the Investor Education & Protection Fund (“IEPF”) in compliance with the provisions of section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013, which was due for transfer as at March 31, 2026. As mentioned in note no. 6 to this Statement, the Company is in the process of transferring the said amount to the IEPF.
Our Conclusion on the Statement is not modified in respect of this matter.
Management’s and Resolution Professional’s Responsibility for the Statement
The Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company’s Management and the Resolution Professional, has been prepared on the basis of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s Management & Resolution Professional are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these consolidated financial results that give a true and fair view of the net loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with the relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The respective Management & Resolution Professional / Board of Directors of
S.R. SALTA & ASSOCIATION
CHURTERED
ACCOUNTANTS
2013
the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial results by the Management & Resolution Professional of the Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the consolidated financial results, Management / Board of Directors / Resolution Professional of the respective companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group 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 Management, Resolution Professional or Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Under Section 20 of the Code it is incumbent upon the Resolution Professional to manage the operations of the Company as a going concern upon initiation of CIRP and the financial results which have been prepared on going concern basis have been considered by the Resolution Professional accordingly.
The respective Management & Resolution Professional / Board of Directors of companies included in the Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial results 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial results.
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 consolidated financial results, 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 expressing our opinion through a separate report on the complete set of financial statements on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls. Refer our 'Disclaimer of Opinion' paragraph above;
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors / Resolution Professional;
5
-
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 consolidated financial results 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; and
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial results, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial results/ financial information/ financial statements of the entities within the Group, 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 the other auditors, such 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 Consolidated Financial Results that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Consolidated Financial Results 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 Consolidated Financial Results.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company 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.
We also perform the procedures in accordance with the Circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, as amended, to the extent applicable.
Other Matters
-
Attention is invited to the fact that the figures for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in the annual consolidated financial results are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the unaudited year-to-date figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year, which were subject to limited review by us.
-
We did not review the financial statements of the associate Company which have not been audited for the year ended March 31, 2026. Further, as explained to us by the management / Resolution Professional and based on our review, the associate company has not filed its annual returns with the Registrar of Companies for a period of more than five years and has not been operational for a
1
substantial period of time. Therefore, the management / Resolution Professional of the Company is unable to provide the accounts of the associate for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026.
Moreover, the consolidated financial statements are prepared wherein the investment in associate is valued as per the Equity method in term of Ind-As 28, Investment in Associates & Joint Ventures. The net worth of the associate company has been eroded and there being no carrying value of the said investment as at the year end, the Company has not recognized its share of any further losses of the associate during the year. Therefore, in our opinion and according to the information & explanations given to us by the management, this financial statement & other financial information are not material to the Group.
Our opinion on the consolidated Ind AS financial results is not modified in respect of the above matters.

Notes:
1) The Company is undergoing Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (“CIRP”) vide order no. C.P. (IB) 1224/MB/2020 pronounced on January 29, 2021 by The Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal (“NCLT”), Mumbai Bench under the provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (the Code). Pursuant to the order, the management of affairs of the Company and powers of the Board of Directors of the Company are now vested with the Resolution Professional (“RP”) who is appointed by the Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal and reconfirmed by COC in first COC meeting. As the powers of the Board of Directors are suspended since CIRP initiation, and erstwhile Management has resigned, these financial results have been prepared by the company and have been signed by the Resolution Professional Ms. Kanak Jani [IP Registration no.IBBI/IPA-001/IP-P-01757/2019-2020/12685]. These audited consolidated financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026 have been prepared in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards (“Ind-AS”) as specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with rule 3 of the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 (as amended from time to time) and the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013.
2) The above audited consolidated financial results for the quarter & year ended March 31, 2026 were audited by the Statutory Auditor of the Company, under Regulation 33 of Securities & Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended. A qualified report was issued by them thereon.
3) The Committee of Creditors (COC), in its 17th meeting held on January 22, 2022, discussed the Resolution plans submitted by the seven prospective resolution applicants (PRA) and had approved the resolution plan submitted by Fab Metals Pvt. Ltd. with 92.47% assent through e-voting. The same has already been disclosed to the Stock Exchanges on January 26, 2022. Accordingly, the further approval from the Hon’ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench is in progress currently.
4) The Company is being managed as a going concern during the CIRP. As mentioned in note no. 2 above the CIRP period shall continue till the Resolution Plan accepted by the CoC is approved by Hon’ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench. The future prospects of the Company would be determined on the completion of CIRP. Therefore, the financial results have been prepared on a going concern basis.
5) The manufacturing activities at Company’s plant at Chakan remain suspended since March 3, 2020 due to lack of working capital as reported during the previous quarters/year end. Further, the operations remain affected due to the inability of the Company to function normally and continuing suspension of production post mid March 2020.
6) There has been a delay in transferring unclaimed matured fixed deposits & interest thereon amounting to Rs. 46.55 lakhs to the Investor Education & Protection Fund (“IEPF”) in compliance with the provisions of section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013, which was due for transfer as at March 31, 2026. However, the entire amount is already funded by the Company and maintained in designated bank accounts. We are in the process of transferring the said amount to the IEPF as per Section 125 of the Companies Act, 2013.
7) The Company has sold a land parcel situated at Village Usarghar to Horizon Limited on 31.12.2012. A portion of land, measuring 860 sq meters was acquired by Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation (DFCC), and the matter was under hearing before the Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO). As per the written understanding between the the Company and M/s. Horizon Limited, the compensation receivable from the government would accrue and be credited to Premier Limited. Pursuant to the proceedings, compensation of Rs 164 Lakhs (including interest thereon) was awarded and finally released to the Company on July 14, 2025. This amount has been treated as other income in these consolidated financial results for the year ended March 31, 2026.
8) The figures of the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in this financial results are the balancing figures between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year.
9) Previous period/year figures have been regrouped / restated and / or rearranged wherever necessary.

| Type of Audit Qualification | Qualified |
| Frequency of qualification: | Showing since Quarter 2 of 2020-21 |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management's Views | N.A. |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | The Networth of the Company has been completely eroded as at the year ended March 31, 2026. Further, the company has incurred a loss of Rs 587 Lakhs (excluding other comprehensive income) for the year ended March 31, 2026. |
| Further the liabilities of the Company far exceed the realizable value of assets owned by the company. In addition, CIRP has been initiated in case of the Company by Hon'ble NCLT Mumbai Bench and currently the CIRP is in progress. | |
| These conditions state that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. | |
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | The Company has incurred losses, its liabilities exceed total assets and its net worth has been fully eroded as at March 31, 2026. The Hon'ble NCLT, Mumbai Bench has admitted a petition to initiate insolvency proceeding against the Company under the Code. As per the Code, it is required that the Company be managed as a going concern during the CIRP. Further, the CIRP period continues to be in effect till the CoC approved Resolution Plan of the Company is approved by the NCLT. The future prospects of the Company would be determined on the completion of CIRP. Hence, in view of the above facts and considering the smooth progress of the CIRP with submission of Resolution Plans is underway currently, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Erosoin of networth casts significant doubts on the entities ability to continue as a going concern. |

3)
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | The Company has not assessed impairment of carrying value of tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets in accordance with requirements of Indian Accounting Standard 36 on "Impairment of Assets". We are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the recoverable amount of the Company's tangible assets, capital work in progress and intangible assets. Consequently, we are unable to determine whether any adjustments to carrying value are necessary and consequential impacts on the statement. Further, as mentioned in note no. 2 to this Statement, the CoC has approved the resolution plan and approval petition for the same is pending before the NCLT. However, we are not privy to the terms & conditions of the approved plan as the same has not been made available to us for our perusal. Therefore, we are unable to comment as to whether an provisions are required for impairment in the value of the assets or cessation of any liabilities. |
|---|---|
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | The Company is under CIRP, and the resolution plan has been submitted by the RP to the Honorable NCLT, Mumbai bench for their approval of the same. Pending the approval of the plan, the same is a confidential document and accordingly no adjustments to the value of the assets has been made in these financial statements. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Not providing for impairment loss affects the true and fair view of the financial statements |
| Details of Audit Qualification | Non Compliance with Ind-As 19 |
| --- | --- |
| Type of Audit Qualification | Qualified |
| Frequency of qualification: | Showing since Quarter 4 of 2020-21 |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is quantified by the auditor, Management's Views | N.A. |
| For Audit Qualification(s) where the impact is not quantified by the auditor | Employee dues including retirement / termination benefits were calculated based on the available data and only till the initiation of the CIRP. Moreover actuarial valuation for gratuity & privileged leave was conducted only till the nine month ending 31st December, 2020 being the quarter immediately preceding the initiation of CIRP. The Company has also not assessed the impact of the new labour codes notified by the Government of India on November 21, 2025. The Labour Codes, amongst other things, introduce changes including a uniform definition of wages and enhanced benefits relating to leave and gratuity payouts |
| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
| If management is unable to estimate the impact, reasons for the same: | Company had suspended its operation effective 03.03.2020 and the workmen union appealed before the industrial court, Pune followed by an appeal before the Hon'ble Bombay High Court against non-payment of wages arising out of the said suspension of operations. The Company has made provision for workmen wages and dues at 50% of their monthly wages till CIRP commencement date. Accordingly an amount of Rs.329.62 Lakhs would be contingent upon the outcome of the petition of the union under hearing before the Bombay High Court. While this matter is in progress, workmen union has also filed another application for the same matter before the NCLT, Mumbai during the current year which is pending for hearing. However, the workmen in their application filed before the NCLT, Mumbai have claimed full wages even for the CIRP period. Since, the Company is under CIRP, quantifying the amount of payment contingent on the order of the NCLT, Mumbai bench is not possible. |
| Auditors'Comments on (i) or (ii) above | Not making provision for employee benefits in accordance with Ind-As affects the true and fair view of the financial statements |

| Management's estimation on the impact of audit qualification: | N.A. |
