What the auditor said
The review was done under SRE 2410, which gives moderate assurance and is not an audit opinion. The conclusion states that nothing came to attention causing belief that the statements are non-compliant or contain a material misstatement, and the conclusion is not modified for the standalone and consolidated results.
The Emphasis of Matter, in simple words
- One of the group's material subsidiaries transferred its Mutual Fund Distribution Business through a slump sale during the half year ended September 30, 2026.
- Consideration for the transfer: ₹659 lakhs.
- The transaction produced an exceptional profit in the consolidated results.
- The same matter is also an Emphasis of Matter in the review report on that subsidiary's standalone results.
Group structure mentioned in the review report
- The consolidated statement covers the parent plus subsidiaries Asit C Mehta Investment Intermediates Limited and Edgytal Fintech Investment Services Private Limited.
Points a retail reader may want to track
- The standalone result is a loss at the 'Profit / (Loss) After Tax' line for both the quarter and the half year, with Total Expenses (204.64) exceeding Total Income (159.54) in the quarter.
- Finance Cost is the single largest expense line in the quarter at 174.02 lakh.
- The exceptional profit from the slump sale sits in the consolidated results, so it is a one-time item rather than recurring operating income.
