We have audited the standalone financial statements of Shanti Guru Industries Limited (Formerly RCL
Retail Limited) ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March 2025, and the
Statement of Profit and Loss, Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of cash flows for the year
then ended, and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the
aforesaid standalone financial statements give the information required by the Act in the manner so
required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in
India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, its loss, changes in equity and its cash
flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) 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 Financial Statements 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 together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the
financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 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.

Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

The Company's Board of Directors and Management is responsible for the preparation of the other
information. The other information comprises the information obtained at the date of this auditor's
report but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to
be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report
in this regard.

Responsibility of the Management and those charged with Governance for the Standalone Financial
Statements

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the
Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in
equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted
in India, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. 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 financial statement that
gives a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those Board of Directors are also
responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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 financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We are also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 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 Companies
Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has
adequate internal financial controls system 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 management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of 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 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 financial statements 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 financial statements, including
the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

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.
