Auditors’ 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 this Statement.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Statement, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3) (i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Holding Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to consolidated financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
-
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 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 Statement or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the Statement represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Segregation of assets (other than inventory,trade receivables, contract assets and unbilled revenue), liabilities, depreciation and amortisation and other expenses into various reportable segments have not been presented as the assets and liabilities are used interchangeably among segments and the Group is of the view that it is not practical to reasonably allocate the other assets, liabilities to individual segments and an ad-hoc allocation will not be meaningful.

As we conclude Q1, I want to take a moment to recognize the incredible contributions of our people, who continue to drive our purpose with passion, innovation, and resilience.
At the end of the quarter, Sasken Group’s headcount stood at 2,196 (16% QoQ growth) and the attrition for the trailing 12 months was 7.3%, underscoring our focus on engagement, development, and retention.
This quarter brought notable recognition for our sustainability efforts.

Business Highlights
Q1 FY26 marked a period of dynamic shifts in the engineering R&D (eR&D) sector, driven by the convergence of digital technologies, sustainability imperatives, and evolving business models. At Sasken, we continue to harness these shifts by aligning our expertise with the emerging needs of global enterprises. Key technologies like Generative AI, digital twins, and smart automation are reshaping product development paradigms, streamlining design, enhancing testing, and enabling immersive user experiences. These innovations are not just improving speed-to-market but are also unlocking new dimensions in customization and quality assurance.
In parallel, the proliferation of 5G, NTN, Edge Computing, and AI-powered platforms is transforming connected ecosystems. Real-time data intelligence is becoming central to industries like automotive, industrial automation, and telecom, where responsive and adaptive systems are critical. The automotive industry continues to transition toward software-centric architectures. Sasken is playing a key role in this evolution, contributing to next-generation invehicle systems, high-performance compute platforms, and scalable software frameworks that power digital cockpits, connected clusters, and telematics.
Additionally, the growing emphasis on sustainability and green mobility is prompting companies to reimagine product lifecycles. We’re enabling our clients to integrate ecoconscious engineering through cloud-enabled platforms, energy-efficient solutions, and next-
3
==> picture [53 x 34] intentionally omitted <==
gen EV technologies. This evolving landscape presents a unique opportunity for Sasken to strengthen its role as a trusted engineering partner—co-creating future-ready solutions that are intelligent, sustainable, and globally scalable.
Within this transformation, Sasken Japan strengthened its presence by adding senior experts, securing a Haken license, and consolidating operations into a new Shin-Yokohama office for greater efficiency. A consulting pilot with a leading automotive OEM evolved into a high-value engagement, while Tier-1 partnerships moved from conventional outsourcing to strategic, proposal-driven collaborations. These steps position us well to deepen customer relationships and drive long-term growth in this key market.
Automotive Sector:
The automotive industry is moving towards a software centric transformation. Number of ECUs inside vehicle are consolidating into High-Performance Compute (HPC) domain controllers and they host multiple virtual ECUs for various functions across the vehicle. Virtual ECUs are purely software driven and agnostic to the HW underneath.
