(c) in the case of the Profit and Loss Account, of the profit for the year ended on that date; and

(d) in the case of the Receipts and Payments Account, of the Receipts and Payments for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditors 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 (ICAI) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the

Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAIs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matte We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

(a) Valuation of Investments (As at March 31, 2025: 44,803,858 Lakhs; March 31, 2024: 38,892,308 lakhs)

(Refer Significant Accounting Policies in note no.16 B (k) (Investments) and Schedule 8, 8A, 8B 9 note no. 16 C (20 & 21) (Impairment of investment assets) to the financial statements)

The Companys investment portfolio consists of Policyholders investments (traditional and unit linked policy holders) and Shareholders investments.

Total investment portfolio of the Company (i.e. Assets under Management (AUM)) represents 99.40 per cent of the Companys total assets.

Investments are made and valued in accordance with the Insurance Act, 1938, IRDAI AFI Regulations, Investment Policy of the Company and relevant Indian GAAPs.

These valuation methods use multiple observable market inputs, including observable interest rates, index levels, credit spreads, equity prices, counterparty credit quality, and corresponding market volatility levels etc.

The portfolio of quoted investments is 43.17 per cent of the Companys AUM and the portfolio of investments that are valued primarily using observable inputs is 56.36 per cent of the Companys AUM. We do not consider these investments to be at a high risk of significant misstatement, or to be subject to a significant level of judgement because they comprise liquid, quoted investments. However, due to their materiality in the context of the financial statements as a whole, they are considered to be one of the areas which had the significant impact on our overall audit strategy.

The portfolio of unquoted investments is 0.20 per cent of the Companys AUM. The valuation of unquoted investments involves judgement depending on the observability of the inputs into the valuation and further judgement in determining the appropriate valuation methodology where external pricing sources are either not readily available or are unreliable.

Valuation of investments was considered to be one of the areas which required significant auditor attention and was one of the matter of most significance in the financial statements due to the materiality of total value of investments to the financial statements.

AuditoResponses Principal Audit Procedures

Our audit procedures for this area included but were not limited to the following:

?€? Obtained an understanding of the Companys process and controls over the valuation of investments. The understanding was obtained by performance of walkthroughs, which included inspection of documents produced by the Company and discussion with those involved in the pertinent process;

?€? Evaluated and tested the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of key controls over the valuation process, including the Companys assessment and approval of assumptions used for the valuation including key authorisation and data input controls thereof;

?€? Obtained independent external confirmations for investments as at balance sheet date from the Custodians and Depository Participants appointed by the Company to confirm the units of securities for the purpose of valuation re-computation;

?€? On a test check basis, recomputed valuation of different class of investments to assess appropriateness of valuation methodologies with reference to IRDAI Investment Regulations along with the Companys Board approved valuation policy;

?€? Examined movement and appropriateness of accounting in Fair Value Change account for specific investments.

?€? Ensured the appropriateness and reasonableness of methodology, assumptions and judgements used by management with reference to the valuation and impairment of investments as per the Companys Board approved valuation and impairment policy.

?€? Obtained written representations from management on compliance of valuation of investments with the regulations and adequacy of impairment recorded for the year.

(b) Information Technology Systems and Controls (IT Controls)

All insurance companies are highly dependent on technology due to the significant number of transactions that are processed on a daily basis. A significant part of the Companys financial processes is heavily reliant on IT systems with automated processes and controls over the capturing, valuing, and recording of transactions. Thus, there exists a risk that gaps in the IT control environment could result in the financial accounting and reporting records being materially misstated.

The Company has separate software applications for management of its various activities. Transfer of data from / to these softwares is critical for accurate compilation of financial information. We have identified IT systems and controls as key audit matter because of significant use of IT environment and the scale and complexity of the IT architecture.

Auditors Responses Principal Audit Procedures

?€? We obtained an understanding of the Companys IT environment and key changes if any during the audit period that may be relevant to the audit

?€? We have reviewed the design and operating effectiveness of key automated controls.

?€? We have reviewed the reconciliations between the core operating systems and the accounting software to mitigate the risk of incorrect data flow to/from separate application software.

?€? We have also obtained management representations wherever considered necessary

(c) Contingent Liabilities and Litigations

(Refer Significant Accounting Policies in note no. 16 B (r) (Provisions and contingent liabilities/assets) and note no. 16 C (1) to the financial statements)

The Company has pending litigation matters with various appellate authorities and at different forums. The same involves judgements in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards to determine the final outcome of such open litigation matte

The management with the help of its experts, as needed, have made judgments relating to the likelihood of an obligation arising and whether there is a need to recognize a provision or disclose a contingent liability. We therefore focused on this area as a result of uncertainty and potential material impact.

Auditors Responses

Principal Audit Procedures

?€? We read the various regulatory correspondences and related documents pertaining to litigation cases and corroborated them with our understanding of legal position as per various statues;

?€? We obtained legal opinion sought by management from the independent legal counsel including opinion of our own team to review the sustainability of the dispute. We discussed the status and potential exposures in respect of significant litigation with the companys internal legal team and obtaining details regarding the progress of various litigations including management views on the likely outcome of each litigation and the magnitude of potential exposure;

?€? The various litigation matters were reviewed in order to assess the facts and circumstances and to identify the potential exposures and to satisfy ourselves that it is not probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required, or in certain cases where the amount cannot be estimated reliably, such obligation is disclosed by the company as a contingent liability.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditors Report Thereon

The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Directors Report including Annexures to Directors Report, Corporate Governance, but does not include the financial statements and our auditors report thereon. The other information is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditors report.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we will 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 identified above when it becomes available 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. When we read the other information, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Companys Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to

the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the Balance Sheet, the related Revenue Account, the Profit and Loss Account and the Receipts and Payments Account of the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the provisions of The Insurance Act as amended from time to time, the IRDA Act, the IRDAI AFI Regulations, orders/ directions/circulars issued by IRDAI in this regard and the Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, to the extent applicable.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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 the 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 statements that give 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 Companys 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.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Companys financial reporting process.

Auditors 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 auditors 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 these financial statements.

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 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 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 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 managements 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 Companys ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors 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 auditors 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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matte We describe these matters in our auditors report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Other Matters

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Companys internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Financial Statements

A companys internal financial control with reference to financial statements is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal financial control with reference to financial statements includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls with reference to Financial Statements

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control with reference to financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2025, based on the internal financial control with reference to financial statements criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note.
