To The Board of Directors Unichem Laboratories Limited

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of consolidated unaudited financial results of Unichem Laboratories Limited ("the Holding Company"), comprising its subsidiaries (the Holding and its subsidiaries collectively referred to as "the Group") for the quarter and half year ended 30th September, 2024 ("the Statement"), being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the "Listing Regulations").

  1. The Statement is the responsibility of the Holding Company's Management and has been approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. 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 issued by the SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, as amended, to the extent applicable.
