To The Board of Directors Unichem Laboratories Limited

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited consolidated 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 nine months ended 31 st December 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").

Management's responsibility

  1. The Statement is the responsibility of the Holding Company's Management and has been approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors. The Statement has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Further, the comparative figures are restated and the same are based on the management certified accounts as disclosed in note 7 of the Statement.

Auditor's responsibility

  1. Our responsibility is to issue a report on this Statement based on our review.

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.

To

The Board of Directors Unichem Laboratories Limited

  1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited standalone financial results ("the Statement") of Unichem Laboratories Limited ("the Company") for the quarter and nine months ended 31 st December, 2024, 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").

Management's responsibility

  1. The Statement which is the responsibility of the Company's Management and approved by the Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India.

Auditor"s responsibility

  1. Our responsibility is to issue a report on this Statement based on our review.

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. This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statements are free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of Company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
