- (iii) gives a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the consolidated net profit and consolidated other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group for the year ended March 31, 2025.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA"s) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. 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 ("!CAI") together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Statement 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 !CAi's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in "Other Matters" paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
-
We draw attention to Note 5 to the statement read together with the Basis for Qualification para of predecessor Auditor's report dated April 25, 2024 for the Quarter ended March 31, 2024 which states that the holding company management has recognised a reduction in fair value in investment amounting to INR 1,243 Lakhs in quarter ended March 3 1, 2024, but has not restated its financial information for the previous quarters. Accordingly, The comparative information for the previous Quarter ended March 31, 2024, is not comparable to that extent.
-
We draw attention to Note 6 to the statement that explains the reasons for the holding company not making the additional provision in view of the reasons mentioned in the aforesaid note.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to this emphasis of matter

Management's Responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial Results
This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Holding Company's management and approved by the Board of Directors of the Holding Company, has been prepared on the basis of annual audited consolidated financial statements.

The respective Board of Directors included in the Group are responsible for the maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of 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 Statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of preparation of the Statement by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Statement.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 financial controls 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 on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Director's and 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 ability of the Group 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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

-
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 of the entities within the Group to express an opinion on the Consolidated Financial Results. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of financial information of such entities included in the consolidated financial results of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated Financial Results, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Statement that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Statement may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Statement.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other entities included in the consolidated financial results of which we are the independent auditors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
We also performed procedures in accordance with the Circular issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, as amended, to the extent applicable.

-
5 The audit report for the quarter ended March 3 1 , 2024 was qualified in respect of the impact of the fair value change in the quarter ended March 3 1 , 2024 and earlier quarters ended September 30, 2023 and December 3 1 , 2023, in respect of the investment in an entity engaged in online gaming platform service business, on which the Company had recognised a reduction in fair value of the investment amounting to INR 1,243 lakhs in the quarter ended March 3 1 . 2024. The Company had not made any adjustment in the financial information for the preceding quarters ended September 30, 2023 and December 3 1. 2023 as the regulatory changes in the gaming industry were in effect from October 1, 2023 and adequate data, such as consumer reaction and the legal status of demands for the previous years, were not available for appropriate evaluation and hence its impact on the fair valuation was unascertainable to that extent.
-
6 The company had made a provision of INR 188 lakhs up to December 31 , 2024 in respect of delays in recovery of its invoices in accordance with its policy in this regard. The management has agreed to a client's request for an extended credit period as the plans arising out of the assignment have been delayed in implementation for reasons beyond the client's control. The extended credit period meant actual recovery in First Quarter of F.Y. 2025-2026. The company has therefore decided not to make further provision of INR I50 lakhs for the receivable.
-
7 The Holding Company, on December 12, 2024, acquired 41.68% equity stake in Ark Neo Financial Services Private Limited ("Ark Neo"), from the Promoters of Ark Neo for consideration of INR 200 lakhs and subscribed to Optionally Convertible Debentures of INR 200 lakhs into Ark Neo. Ark Neo is a technology platform (known as "Dhanlap") for loans against securities in the realm of a loan service provider ("LSP") and has a 100% subsidiary operating as Suprasanna Finance Private Limited. The Company has recognized such investment by equity method and accordingly incorporated post-acquisition loss of INR (21) lakhs as a share of loss from associate in its consolidated financial results, arising out of post-tax unaudited management certified accounts of Ark Neo. The above impact is taken based on the unaudited management certified consolidated accounts of Ark Neo.

Emphasis of matters
-
We draw attention to Note 4 to the statement read together with the Basis for Qualification para of predecessor Auditor's report dated April 25, 2024 for the Quarter ended March 31, 2024 which states that the management has recognised a reduction in fair value in investment amounting to INR 1,243 Lakhs in quarter ended March 31, 2024, but has not restated its financial information for the previous quarters. Accordingly, the comparative information for the previous Quarter ended March 31, 2024, is not comparable to that extent.
-
We draw attention to Note 5 to the statement that explains the reasons for the company not making the additional provision in view of the reasons mentioned in the aforesaid note.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to these emphasis of matters
Management's Responsibilities for the Standalone Financial Results
This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company's management and approved by the Board of Directors, has been prepared on the basis of annual audited standalone financial statements.
The Company's management and the Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Statement that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Indian Accounting Standards, prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Statement, the management and the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Statement.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 financial controls 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 on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system with reference to standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Director's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the statement or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the St antad l[chartered ] one inan[acco] ca 1[unt][a][n][ts ] 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 Statement that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Statement may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Statement.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
Other Matters
The Statement include the results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 being the balancing figure between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year 2024-25 and the published unaudited year to date figures up to the third quarter ended December 31, 2024, of the current financial year 2024-25 which are subject to limited review by us.
The Statement also includes the results for the comparative quarter ended March 31, 2024, being the balancing figures between the audited figures in respect of full financial year 2023 24 and audited figures up to third quarter ended December 31, 2023, which are audited by the predecessor auditor, and they have issued Qualified opinion vide their report dated April 25, 2024.

Standalone Notes:
-
I The above standalone financial results have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standard) Rules, 2015 (Ind-AS") prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Aet, 20 1 3 read with the relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.

-
4 The audit report for the quarter ended March 3 1 , 2024 was qualified in respect of the impact of the fair value change in the quarter ended March 3 1 , 2024 and earlier quarters ended September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, in respect of the investment in an entity engaged in online gaming platform service business, on which the Company had recognised a reduction in fair value of the investment amounting to INR 1,243 lakhs in the quarter ended March 31 , 2024. The Company had not made any adjustment in the financial information for the preceding quarters ended September 30, 2023 and December 31 , 2023 as the regulatory changes in the gaming industry were in effect from October I , 2023 and adequate data, such as consumer reaction and the legal status of demands for the previous years, were not available for appropriate evaluation and hence its impact on the fair valuation was unascertainable to that extent.
-
5 The company had made a provision of INR I88 lakhs up to December 3 1 , 2024 in respect of delays in recovery of its invoices in accordance with its policy in this regard. The management has agreed to a client's request for an extended credit period as the plans arising out of the assignment have been delayed in implementation for reasons beyond the client's control. The extended credit period meant actual recovery in First Quarter of F,Y. 2025-2026. The company has therefore decided not to make further provision of INR 150 lakhs for the receivable.
-
6 The Company, on December 12, 2024, acquired 41.68% equity stake in Ark Neo Financial Services Private Limited ("Ark Neo"), from the Promoters of Ark Neo for consideration of INR 200 lakhs and subscribed to Optionally Convertible Debentures of INR 200 lakhs into Ark Nco.

The company has commenced wealth management, as a new business vertical through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Prime Trigen Wealth Limited:
-
Apart from two co-CEOs, 33 team members have been appointed.
-
The technology platform, for onboarding and servicing clients, has been launched.
-
❖ Highly volatile markets, massive policy shifts from the US, host of ramifications in the FX, Commodity, Bond and Equity Markets - these have been the hallmarks of the financial world recently. Some peace and calm shall return soon and India should emerge a huge winner.
-
❖ While investors should note that the advisory business does not lend itself to quarterly or annual comparisons, much less extrapolation, it is equally important to highlight that both the number and size of deals, have been steadily rising. The management remains optimistic on the prospects of the Company over the next few years.
