INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
BAJAJ HOLDINGS & INVESTMENT LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results

Opinion
We have audited the accompanying Statement of Standalone Financial Results for the quarter
and the year ended March 31, 2024 of BAJAJ HOLDINGS & INVESTMENT LIMITED ("the
Company"), together with the notes thereon, attached herewith, being submitted by the
Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the Securities and Exchange Board
of India (SEBI) (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as
amended ("Listing Regulations"), duly initialled by us for identification.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to
us, these standalone financial results:
i) are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing
Regulations in this regard; and
ii) give a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles
laid down in the applicable accounting standards generally accepted in India of the net
profit and other comprehensive income and other financial information for the quarter
and year ended March 31, 2024.

Basis for Opinion


We conducted our audit 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 Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results 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 standalone financial results under the provisions of the Companies
Act, 2013 ("the Act") 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.

Management's Responsibilities for the Standalone Financial Results


These quarterly and annual Standalone Financial Results have been prepared on the basis of
the annual financial statements. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the
preparation of these standalone financial results that give a true and fair view of the net profit
and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant
rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in
co mpliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. 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 standalone financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material
mlsstat - e t whether due to fraud or error.

Senapati Bapat Road P M Road, Fort,
Pune411016 Mumbai 400001

In preparing the Standalone Financial Results, the Board of Directors 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 the
Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations , or has no
realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company's fin ancial reporting
process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results


Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial
results 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 the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone Financial
Results.

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 standalone financial
results, 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 om issions, 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 circum stances. Under Section 143(3) (i) of the
Act, we are a1$0 responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has
adequate internal fin anci al controls with reference to financial statements in place and
tile 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
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 standalone fi nancial results 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, futu re events or conditions
may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial
results, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone finan cial resu lts
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.

Other Matter

The figures for the quarters ended March 31, of the respective financial years as reported in
these standalone financial results are the balancing figures between the audited figures in
respect of the full financial year ended March 31 and the published year to date figures up to
the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year. The figures up to the end of the third
quarter have only been reviewed and not subjected to an audit.

Our opinion on the Standalone Financial Results is not modified in respect of the above matter.

generally accepted in India, of consolidated total comprehensive income
(comprising of net profit and other comprehensive income) and other financial
information of the Group for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2024.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing C;SAs") specified
under section 143(10) of the Act. Ou r responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for th e Audit of the Consolidated Financial
Results section of our report. We are independent of the Group and its associates in
accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of India together with the eth ical requireme nts that are relevant to our audit of the
Consolidated Financial Results under the provisions of the Act and the Rul es
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
obtained by us and respective independent auditors in terms of their reports referred

appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion, except in respect of the matter stated in
paragraph 4 below.

on the consolidated profit after tax, other comprehensive income and earnings pe r
share for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024. Our limited

qualified in respect of this matter.

Management's Responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial Results

consolidated financial statements. The Holding Company's Board of Directors is
responsible for the preparation and presentation of these conso lidated financial results
that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehen sive income and
other financial fnformation of the Group including its associates in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with

The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its
associates are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in
acco rdance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of th e assets of the Group
and its associates 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 accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the
preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial results that give a true and
fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which
have been used for the purpose of preparation of the conso lidated fi nancial results by
the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.

6. In preparing the consolidated financial results, the respective Board of Directors of the
Companies included in the Group and of its associates are responsible for assessing
the ability of the Group and its associates to continue as a going concern, disclosing,
as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless the respective Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the
Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

7. The respective Board of Directors of t11e companies included in the Group and of its
associates are also responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the
Group and of its associates.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Results

8. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial resu lts 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 the aggregate, they cou ld reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial resu lts.

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

9.1 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consol idated financial
results , 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 opi nion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulti ng from error, as
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or
the override of internal contro l.

concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether

significant doubt on the ability of the Group and its associates to continue as a
going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertai nty exists, we are required to
draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated
financial results 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 and its

financial results , including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial
results represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves
fair presentation.

4. The Company is essentially a holding and investment company focussing on earning income through dividends, interest and gains on
investments held. Hence, the Company's business activity falls within a single business segment i.e. investments.

5. The holding Company and one of its subsidiary had tendered equity shares in buyback by one of its associate Bajaj Auto Ltd. 1,264,743 shares
were accepted in buyback. Net of relevant book costs & transaction costs, the proceeds received on buyback of shares and profit thereon are

frequency for publishing financial results by listed companies. BAL has been informed by PBAG, that the results of PMAG (included in PBAG) are
required to be published on a six-monthly basis as per the stock exchange regulations applicable to PMAG, and hence are permitted to be shared
with BAL only as per that publishing calendar. BAL has now accounted for its share of consolidated profit for six months in the results for the
current quarter ended 31 March 2024 as received from PBAG. The auditors of BAL have modified their report in regard to this matter and
consequently the auditors of BHIL have reproduced the same in their report.
