Out of the total proceeds, a portion remains unutilized. Based on the current operational requirements and business priorities, the management has reviewed the utilisation plan and proposes to reallocate the unutilized amount of ₹19.07 crore originally earmarked for Capital Expenditure towards Working Capital Requirements.
The proposed variation is necessitated as the capital expenditure originally envisaged is no longer required to the extent estimated, whereas the Company's working capital requirements have increased owing to business operations.
The proposed reallocation is expected to enable more efficient deployment of the unutilized funds and is considered to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
The proposed variation relates only to the unutilized proceeds of the preferential issue and does not affect the amounts already utilized towards the approved objects.

A statement setting out the objects for which the funds were raised, the original allocation, the amount utilized, the unutilized balance and the proposed revised allocation of the issue proceeds is provided hereunder:
| Particulars | Object | Original Allocation (¥ Crore) | Amount Utilized (¥ Crore) | Unutilized Amount (¥ Crore) | Revised Allocation (¥ Crore) |

ASH UTILIZATION & COAL HANDLING

As part of its long-term growth strategy, Refex expanded into the ash utilization sector, addressing the growing need for sustainable management of ash generated by coal-based thermal power plants. What was once viewed primarily as an industrial by-product is increasingly being recognized as a valuable resource in India's infrastructure-led growth and advancing a more circular and resource-efficient economy.
Today, Refex has built one of India's most comprehensive ash utilization platforms, delivering integrated solutions across the entire value chain; from ash evacuation and transportation to utilization, logistics management, and regulatory compliance.
The Company's capabilities support the productive usage of ash across diverse applications, including cement manufacturing, road and infrastructure development, mine filling, and other industrial uses.
Refex serves a broad customer base comprising leading public and private sector power producers, including NTPC, state generation Companies (GENCOs), and other major utilities, while working closely with cement manufacturers, infrastructure developers, and industrial consumers to create a robust nationwide utilization ecosystem.
Complementing its ash utilization business, Refex also provides coal supply services, leveraging its expertise in logistics, material management, and supply chain coordination to support the fuel requirements of thermal power plants and other industrial consumers.
Together, these capabilities enable Refex to deliver integrated solutions across the broader thermal power value chain.
The continued expansion of India's thermal power capacity, coupled with rising power demand and evolving regulatory expectations around ash utilization, is reshaping the sector. Increasingly, power generators require partners capable of delivering technology-enabled, end-to-end ash utilization solutions that ensure regulatory compliance and operational excellence. As the sector continues to evolve, Refex remains well positioned to support the industry's transition towards more efficient, compliant, and sustainable ash utilization practices.

WIND ENERGY
Venwind marks Refex's strategic entry into the renewable energy sector, reinforcing the Company's commitment to sustainable growth through advanced wind turbine manufacturing.
As a key subsidiary of Refex, Venwind is positioned to emerge as a leading Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of wind turbines in India, combining proven global technology with localized manufacturing capabilities to deliver high-performance wind turbines tailored to the domestic market.
Venwind manufactures 5.3 MW wind turbines and is targeting an annual production capacity of 5 GW over the next five years, establishing a scalable platform to support the growing demand for renewable energy solutions.



At the core of Venwind's competitive positioning is its exclusive technology licensing partnership with Vensys Energy AG, providing access to advanced Permanent Magnet Generator (PMG) technology. This enables the Company to deliver turbines with higher energy efficiency, superior grid compatibility, lower maintenance requirements, and an improved Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE).
Complementing this technology advantage is the development of a robust domestic supply chain through partnerships with leading global component manufacturers with established production capabilities in India. This integrated ecosystem is expected to enhance manufacturing resilience, ensure consistent product quality, and support scalable production.
Having successfully completed its first year of operations, Venwind is entering its next phase of growth with a clear focus on scaling manufacturing, strengthening its supply chain ecosystem, and leveraging its technology advantage to build a competitive and resilient business. With a strong foundation in place, the Company is well positioned to strengthen its presence in the renewable energy sector while supporting India's clean energy ambitions.

CHAIRMAN & MANAGING DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE
Dear Stakeholders,
It gives me great pleasure to present Refex Industries Limited's Annual Report for FY 2025-26 - a defining year in our journey.
When I look at India today, I see a country entering one of the most transformative decades in its economic history. The convergence of infrastructure development, energy transition, sustainability, and technology is reshaping industries and creating opportunities of unprecedented scale. At Refex, we have consciously built our presence at the intersection of these structural shifts, developing businesses that not only participate in India's economic progress but also contribute meaningfully to it.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Corporate Overview
For me, this year represents the successful delivery of a long-term roadmap that has steadily transformed Refex into a focused and resilient enterprise. Over the past several years, we have reshaped our portfolio with a clear objective: to build businesses with distinct competitive advantages, sustainable profitability, and enduring relevance. This philosophy has guided every major investment and decision we have made.
Today, our portfolio is firmly anchored around three high-potential businesses: Ash Utilization & Coal Handling, Mobility, and Wind Energy, each addressing critical national priorities while offering significant opportunities for sustained value creation. The progress we have achieved across all three verticals this year reinforces my confidence that we are moving in the right direction.
In a year marked by geopolitical uncertainty and volatile energy markets, I am particularly proud of the resilience we demonstrated. This reflects not only the strength of our business model, but also our disciplined approach to capital allocation, operational excellence, and above all, the commitment of our people.
Equally important to me has been our consistent focus on creating positive social and environmental impact. Sustainability is not a separate agenda at Refex; it is deeply embedded in the way we think, operate, and grow. Through our corporate social responsibility and sustainability initiatives, we continued to create lasting impact in the communities we serve, reaffirming our belief that responsible businesses create value not only for shareholders but also for society at large.
As we enter the next phase of our journey, we do so with clarity of purpose and confidence in our direction.
Overview of our Financial Performance
The financial performance of FY 2025-26 reflects the early outcomes of decisions we took over the past several years as we transitioned our portfolio towards businesses with stronger scalability, better margin visibility, and long-term potential.
Revenue stood at ₹2,411.63 crore during the year, moderating from the previous year as the portfolio transition continued. Net profit grew by 28.62% to ₹203.72 crore, reflecting a stronger and resilient earnings profile.
Segment-wise Performance
Ash Utilization & Coal Handling
FY 2025-26 marked an important milestone in the evolution of our ash utilization business. While scale continues to be a key differentiator for Refex, our more meaningful achievement was the transformation in how we engaged with customers.
Thermal power producers are increasingly seeking integrated, long-term partners capable of handling the entire ash management ecosystem, rather than standalone transportation providers. Recognizing this structural shift early, Refex steadily evolved from an execution-led logistics provider into a strategic solutions partner.
During the year, we deepened relationships with several leading power utilities through long-term frameworks and collaborative partnerships focused on improving ash utilization, regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and sustainability outcomes. These engagements have enabled deeper customer integration, greater visibility, and a solid base for future growth.
Wind Energy
Our wind energy business delivered a strong first full financial year of operations, achieving important milestones across manufacturing, certification, customer acquisition, and project execution.
We secured orders from leading Independent Power Producers, generated revenue of ₹237.53 crore, and built an order pipeline exceeding 400 MW, estimated worth of ₹1,500 crore. We commissioned our Rotor and Nacelle Assembly facility at Silvassa with annual manufacturing capacity exceeding 1 GW, and became the first company in India to receive ALMM certification for a 5.3 MW wind turbine platform, firmly placing us among the pioneers of next-generation wind technology in India.

^{}[] reflex
Mobility
I am particularly proud of what our Mobility business achieved this year. We crossed ₹100 crore in total revenue, representing nearly 2.5 times growth over the revenue achieved in the previous financial year.
In just three years of operations, the business scaled to an owned fleet of nearly 1,500 vehicles, serving over 70 enterprise customers across 5 major cities. During the year, we successfully completed more than 1.5 million trips across the enterprise and executive mobility segments, reflecting both the scale of operations and the trust our clients place in us.
Advancing Our Digital & AI Journey
Across our businesses, the quality and speed of decision-making increasingly depend on how effectively technology is embedded into operations. Our approach has been practical and deliberate: focused on solving specific challenges, improving execution, and building scalable digital capabilities.
During the year, we implemented an integrated ERP platform across our Ash & Coal business, enabling seamless operational and financial visibility while extending real-time data capture to field teams through mobile applications. The wind energy business strengthened its engineering capabilities through specialized design and document management platforms, while the mobility business further enhanced its proprietary technology platform across fleet operations, route optimization, driver management, and enterprise integrations.
Business Outlook
We remain optimistic about the prospects ahead. India's long-term growth trajectory in energy transition and sustainability-linked sectors presents compelling opportunities, and each of Refex's businesses is well placed to capitalize on these trends.
In Ash Utilization & Coal Handling, we believe the business will become increasingly critical as India's power demand grows and regulations around sustainable ash utilization continue to strengthen. We see significant opportunities in integrated ash management, ancillary services, and product-based avenues linked to the ash value chain. With our integrated operating model, deep customer relationships, proven execution capabilities, and strong regulatory understanding, we are equipped not only to lead India's organized ash management industry but also to expand into adjacent areas across the environmental services value chain. We will further improve our execution capabilities, grow our geographical footprint, and deepen partnerships with power generators across the country.
In Mobility, India's corporate mobility sector is shifting decisively toward reliable, compliant, technology-enabled, and clean-fuel solutions. Our mobility business is well aligned to address this evolving demand. Our focus will be on expanding our market presence and steering the business toward profitability, while cementing our position as a premium, reliable, technology-driven mobility partner.
In Wind Energy, we will focus on executing our confirmed order book while scaling manufacturing capacity to 3 GW over the next few years, backed by advanced technology, deep engineering expertise, and high localisation. We will also explore turnkey wind project execution, enabling greater participation across the renewable energy value chain.
Across all our businesses, we will continue investing in AI-based solutions, digital platforms, and data-driven decision-making to build a more agile and technology-led organization.

Sustainable Growth and Strong Governance
At Refex, our growth aspirations have always been grounded in responsible business practices. I firmly believe that sustainable value creation rests on environmental stewardship, social responsibility, ethical conduct, and robust corporate governance. These principles remain central to everything we do, and we are convinced that adherence to them is not only the right thing to do, but also a crucial driver of sustained business success. As we scale, we remain steadfast in upholding the highest standards of transparency, accountability, and governance.
Looking Ahead
The Refex we are building today is fundamentally different from the Company we were just a few years ago - more focused, stronger in execution, and better prepared for long-term growth. While we take pride in what we have accomplished, I firmly believe that our most exciting years still lie ahead.
I extend my sincere gratitude to our stakeholders for their continued trust, support, and guidance. I thank every member of the Refex team, whose dedication, passion, integrity, and relentless pursuit of excellence form the foundation of everything we achieve. As we enter the next phase of our journey defined by focused growth, expanding frontiers, and an unwavering commitment to responsible value creation, I look forward to your constant support and partnership as we build a stronger, more resilient, and future-ready Refex.

DIGITAL AND AI TRANSFORMATION
Building a Connected and Efficient Enterprise
During the year under review, the Company continued to advance its digital and AI transformation agenda with a clear focus on enhancing operational efficiency across business segments while strengthening the corporate functions that support them.

^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Corporate Overview
Initiatives were directed towards high-impact projects that accelerated field data capture, reduced manual intervention, improved reporting and reconciliation, strengthened information security, and enhanced collaboration across teams and locations.
Our approach extended beyond the implementation of individual digital solutions. We focused on building an integrated digital ecosystem where information is captured at source, seamlessly flows across interconnected systems, and is made available to decision-makers in real time. This has strengthened the digital backbone of our operations, improved execution and governance, and established a scalable platform to support the Company's next phase of growth.

^{}[] Corporate Overview
Digitalizing Core Operations
A key achievement during the year was the digitalization of the Company's Ash & Coal business through the implementation of an end-to-end ERP platform. To enhance operational visibility further, the ERP was integrated with several mobile applications deployed across operating sites, enabling real-time data capture at source and ensuring timely availability of information for faster, more informed decision-making.

Reflecting the Company's commitment to robust organizational systems across its expanding businesses, Venwind progressed key enterprise platforms during the year, deploying SolidWorks for 3D design and a PLM system for CAD data and documentation, including BOM creation and controlled document sharing. The integrated platforms enable end-to-end document management, strengthening design control as the Wind business scales.
The Mobility business continued investing in its proprietary technology platform, advancing fleet management, real-time vehicle and battery monitoring, route planning, and digitalization of driver payments and collections, alongside enterprise booking integrations and AI-embedded product development, reinforcing efficiency, service consistency, and scalability.
As these systems scale across businesses, the Company has placed equal emphasis on the underlying infrastructure and security that support them.
Enhancing Resilience and Control
Cybersecurity and infrastructure resilience remained a key priority during the year. The Sentinel platform strengthened protection at the device and server level, while dual connectivity, firewall protection, network redundancy, and managed services were implemented across 16 locations, improving system reliability, business continuity, and cost efficiency. Technology-related decisions were also guided by cost and ESG-aligned IT asset management practices, including tighter consumption controls and rationalization of office and computing equipment.
Advancing to the Next Phase
Looking ahead, the focus will remain on deeper integration between operating applications, enterprise systems, and management reporting, together with wider adoption of AI-led automation. The Board and management believe this transformation agenda will continue to deliver tangible outcomes, higher productivity, stronger internal controls, improved quality of information, and a scalable technology foundation to support the Company's future growth.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles continue to play a critical role in shaping Refex's long-term strategy and sustainable growth agenda. By integrating ESG considerations into its day-to-day operations and decision-making processes, the Company seeks to minimize its environmental footprint, foster social responsibility, and uphold the highest standards of corporate governance. A strong ESG framework strengthens risk management, enhances operational resilience, and promotes transparency and accountability across the organization. It also reinforces stakeholder confidence, supports responsible business practices, and positions the Company to meet evolving regulatory and market expectations. Through its commitment to ESG, Refex aims to create lasting value for stakeholders while contributing positively to society and the environment.
Committed to Environmental Protection
At Refex, sustainability is not a compliance obligation; it is a founding conviction. We are building businesses that operate on the belief that economic value creation and environmental stewardship are complementary forces that must advance together.
This commitment is anchored in defining environmental ambitions that will guide the Company's sustainability journey over the coming decade.

Energy Transition
The clean energy transition at Refex extends beyond reducing emissions within its own operations. Through the Mobility business, centered on clean-fuel mobility solutions, the Company enables customers to reduce their transportation-related emissions and accelerate their own decarbonization journeys.
Environmental Performance Metrics FY 2025–26

*Emissions from business air travel and employee commuting through Company-hired vehicles have been considered.
** In FY 2026, we have significantly expanded the boundary of our energy and carbon emissions reporting to encompass all operational sites, including additional large sites introduced in the reporting period and previously unreported locations, compared to the limited site coverage disclosed in the previous year. As part of this exercise, we completed our baseline assessment and established suitable operational and organizational boundaries, underpinned by dedicated monitoring systems newly instituted across all included sites.
The reported increase in energy consumption and carbon emissions is solely attributable to this expanded boundary and enhanced inclusivity of reporting, and not to any deterioration in operational efficiency; our emissions intensity metrics have remained stable. Prior year figures are not directly comparable due to the difference in reporting scope, and restated estimates are provided separately for reference. Building on this foundation, we are deploying water consumption monitoring systems across our operations during the current year, and remain committed to progressive reduction in our environmental footprint with targets to be disclosed upon completion of our full baseline review.

Waste Management & Circular Economy
Guided by its Sustainability Vision 2035, Refex has committed to becoming a 100% Circular Economy Enterprise by 2035.
Ash generated by thermal power plants represents one of India's largest industrial waste streams and, simultaneously, one of its most significant resource recovery opportunities. Refex has built a comprehensive, end-to-end ash management ecosystem that transforms what was once an environmental liability into a productive resource for several industries. The foundation of Refex's approach is a carefully cultivated network of off take partners cement manufacturers, fly ash brick manufactures, construction contractors, and abandoned mine operator to absorb recycled ash at scale, enabling near-total diversion from landfill.
This is the circular economy in its most practical, measurable form.
The Company maintains a rigorous approach to monitoring and accountability, with utilization volumes, disposal methods, and environmental outcomes systematically tracked and independently verified.

Water Stewardship
Water conservation remains a key pillar of Refex's environmental strategy. The Company's approach is guided by three principles: reducing freshwater consumption, replenishing natural water systems, and strengthening long-term water security for communities and ecosystems.
To support these objectives, rainwater harvesting and groundwater recharge structures have been made mandatory across operational locations. These measures are complemented by water conservation practices designed to improve resource efficiency and reduce dependency on freshwater sources.

2. Ash Handling
Industry Overview
Coal-based thermal power continues to account for nearly three-fourths of India's electricity generation, making ash management an important aspect of the country's energy and environmental landscape. As ash generation increases alongside power demand, effective utilization has become both an operational necessity and a significant industrial opportunity.

(Ash Generation Process in Thermal Power Plants)
According to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), 189 thermal power plants with an installed capacity of 214.06 GW consumed approximately 886.96 million tons of coal during FY 2024 - 25, generating 318.8 million tons of ash. Ash utilization reached 307.1 million tons, translating into a utilization rate of 96.34%, reflecting continued progress towards the Government's goal of 100% ash utilization.
Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Odisha remained the largest ash-generating states, driven by their concentration of coal-based power generation assets.
Despite the improvement in annual utilization levels, India continues to carry an estimated 1.7 billion tons of legacy ash accumulated over decades, creating significant environmental and land-management challenges. The issue is further amplified by the relatively high ash content of Indian coal, which typically ranges between 35% and 50%. These factors continue to drive the need for large-scale ash evacuation, beneficiation, transportation, and utilisation solutions across infrastructure, construction, mining, and industrial applications.

^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Statutory Reports
Revised MoEF&CC Guidelines
The policy environment for ash utilisation strengthened further during FY 2025 - 26 with the Ministry of Power issuing revised guidelines aimed at accelerating 100% utilisation of both current and legacy ash. The revised framework promotes transparent ash allocation, encourages long-term tie-ups with bulk consumers, supports exports, and facilitates the adoption of multi modal transportation solutions such as rail, waterways, pipelines, and Rail-cum-Road (RCR) systems to improve evacuation efficiency. It also rationalizes transportation support by capping the liability of thermal power plants for utilisation projects beyond 300 km at the notional cost of road transport up to that distance.
Opportunities and Challenges
The ash management industry is undergoing a structural transformation, driven by stricter utilisation mandates, increasing regulatory oversight, and the growing adoption of circular economy principles. Thermal power plants are increasingly preferring integrated, end-to-end models covering ash evacuation, dyke management, transportation, utilisation, compliance and digital monitoring, creating opportunities for organized operators with comprehensive capabilities. Government initiatives such as the Ash Utilization Monitoring Portal and ASTRAM are further enhancing transparency, traceability and utilisation planning across the sector.
India's expanding infrastructure ecosystem continues to create significant demand for ash utilisation. The pace of national highway construction has increased from approximately 12 km per day in 2014 to nearly 29 km per day in 2025, while the National Highway network has expanded from about 91,000 km to over 146,000 km during the same period. This growth is supporting increased utilisation of ash in roads, embankments, soil stabilization, and other construction applications.
The sector is also witnessing growing efforts to develop new utilisation avenues. NTPC, India's largest power producer, continues to promote sustainable ash management through initiatives such as ash brick manufacturing, mine reclamation, agricultural applications, geo-polymer concrete roads, lightweight aggregate plants, ash-based nano concrete aggregates, and other innovative ash utilisation technologies. These initiatives are helping expand the commercial applications of ash and strengthen circular economy outcomes.
However, the sector continues to face challenges including regional demand imbalances, high transportation costs, environmental sensitivities surrounding ash ponds, and the limited commercial adoption of several emerging utilisation avenues. Addressing these constraints will require continued investments in logistics infrastructure, technology, and market development.
Future Outlook
Looking ahead, the ash management industry is expected to witness sustained growth, supported by India's expanding thermal power base, rising infrastructure investments, and an increasingly robust regulatory focus on achieving 100% ash utilisation. As policy frameworks, digital monitoring systems and utilisation ecosystems continue to evolve, the industry is expected to increasingly adopt integrated service models, with a single operator managing the entire value chain - from ash handling and evacuation to transportation, utilisation and regulatory compliance.
Ash is increasingly being recognized not as a waste by-product but as a valuable industrial resource that can support sustainable infrastructure development, conserve natural resources, and reduce the environmental footprint of construction activities. With growing emphasis on resource efficiency, circular economy practices, and environmental stewardship, the sector is well positioned to play an increasingly important role in India's infrastructure and industrial growth journey.

During the year, 6.05 GW of new capacity was added, compared with 4.15 GW in FY25, taking cumulative installed capacity to 56.09 GW as of March 31, 2026. This represents a significant increase from 21.04 GW in March 2014 and reinforces India's position as the world's fourth-largest wind-power market by installed capacity.
The demand environment for wind turbines and related components is being driven by India's growing electricity requirements and the broader expansion of renewable-energy infrastructure. Wind is also gaining importance alongside solar and storage, particularly in hybrid projects that provide a more balanced generation profile. Green-energy open-access arrangements are expanding the customer base beyond traditional utility procurement, with commercial, industrial and captive consumers increasingly participating in the market.
India has also developed a substantial wind-turbine manufacturing ecosystem. Annual manufacturing capacity increased from approximately 10 GW in 2014 to around 24 GW by March 2026. The domestic value chain includes turbine manufacturing, blades, towers, castings, forgings, gearboxes, generators, project development, engineering, construction and long-term operations and maintenance services.
Opportunities and Challenges
India has substantial untapped wind resources. The National Institute of Wind Energy has assessed gross wind potential at approximately 695.5 GW at a hub height of 120 meters and 1,163.9 GW at 150 meters. The higher potential at increased hub heights reflects the opportunity presented by modern turbine platforms, which can make lower-wind-speed sites commercially viable and generate higher output from a given land parcel.
Growth opportunities exist across utility and public-sector procurement, commercial and industrial open-access projects, hybrid and storage-supported projects, and the repowering of older wind farms. Hybrid projects can improve the utilisation of evacuation and transmission infrastructure while providing a more diversified generation profile. Repowering can increase output from established wind sites by replacing older, lower-capacity turbines with newer technology.
India's manufacturing and engineering capabilities also provide opportunities in equipment and component exports, operations and maintenance, refurbishment, life-extension services and performance monitoring. Wind energy additionally benefits from the absence of fuel-price exposure at the generation stage, the potential for long-term price visibility and its ability to complement other renewable sources.
However, the sector continues to face execution challenges relating to transmission availability, land acquisition, right-of-way approvals and coordination between project construction and grid development. Delays can affect equipment ordering, commissioning schedules, revenue commencement and working-capital requirements.
Project economics are also influenced by financing costs, tariff levels, construction timelines, wind resource quality and actual generation. Larger turbine platforms require specialized transportation, road infrastructure, cranes and skilled installation capabilities. Manufacturers also remain exposed to fluctuations in input costs and component availability. Repowering projects may involve additional complexities relating to ownership structures, existing power-purchase agreements, land rights and available grid capacity.

2. Soaring Business Travel:
Rising business travel across corporate India, coupled with growing emphasis on employee safety and premium experience, is driving demand for reliable mobility solutions for executive travel, client visits, rentals, and airport transfers - segments where fragmented vendors and mass-market aggregators consistently underperform on consistency and trust. This demand is further supported by India's rapidly expanding airport network, with every new airport and route creating incremental need for dependable airport-transfer mobility across surrounding catchment areas.
3. Corporate ESG Mandates:
India's evolving ESG and sustainability reporting landscape is further accelerating the adoption of clean-fuel mobility solutions for employee transportation. SEBI's Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting (BRSR) framework, with its growing emphasis on Scope 1, 2, and emissions disclosures, is encouraging companies to reduce transportation-related emissions as part of their broader net zero and sustainability commitments.
4. EV Transition Policy Push:
Government initiatives and state-level EV policies continue to drive EV adoption nationally, with a growing EV share of overall mobility. This policy tailwind supports the availability and corporate acceptability of EV fleets for organized operators.
5. Formalization and Premiumisation:
Enterprises are no longer evaluating mobility purely on cost. Rising employee safety expectations, stricter governance standards, and the reputational risks of service disruptions are accelerating the shift toward organized operators. Technology-led, premium mobility is increasingly a procurement standard, not a discretionary upgrade.
6. Market Gap:
India's corporate mobility market, despite its scale and growth potential, remains largely unaddressed by a credible, full-service operator. Existing players each solve part of the problem - aggregators offer reach but not reliability; technology platforms offer visibility but not fleet ownership; local vendors offer familiarity but not consistency or compliance. This fragmentation represents a compelling long-term opportunity to build scale and differentiated value.
While long-term sector fundamentals remain strong, near-term challenges persist. These include higher EV acquisition and financing costs, inadequate charging and CNG infrastructure in Tier-2 markets, and the continued cost competitiveness of conventional fuels, which may leave a meaningful share of the industry reliant on conventional fuels for longer than anticipated.

Refex is well positioned to capitalize on multiple structural tailwinds. India's clean mobility ecosystem is gaining strong momentum, driven by sustained policy support and accelerating infrastructure development. Public EV charging infrastructure has expanded more than five-fold, from 5,151 stations in December 2022 to 27,737 stations by March 2026, with 22,753 already operational. Key initiatives such as MoRTH's highway electrification program and the PM E-DRIVE scheme continue to strengthen this ecosystem. The PM E-DRIVE scheme, now extended until March 2028 within its ₹10,900 crore outlay, targets the rollout of charging stations across cities, highways, and key transport corridors. These developments are progressively improving charging accessibility and EV adoption, while strengthening the long-term viability of EV fleet operations.
Beyond clean-fuel tailwinds, India's corporate mobility market presents a substantial growth opportunity. The combined Employee Transport Services (ETS) and Corporate Car Rental (CCR) market is expected to grow at a 10.7% CAGR to approximately USD 22 billion by 2030, making it one of the fastest-growing corporate mobility markets globally. India's low penetration relative to global peers, where corporate mobility vehicle adoption is markedly higher, further highlights the significant headroom for organized operators. The sector remains structurally fragmented, with organized players accounting for a relatively small share of the market. While this creates near-term competitive intensity, it also presents a meaningful long-term consolidation opportunity for well-capitalized, technology-driven operators such as Refex.
However, the broader transition toward EV-led fleet operations continues to face structural challenges. EV mobility remains relatively capital-intensive, requiring substantial investment in vehicles and charging infrastructure, though over the total ownership period, EVs typically offer lower fuel and maintenance costs relative to conventional vehicles, making the long-term economics increasingly compelling as fleet utilisation improves. Limited availability of skilled EV maintenance technicians may increase operational downtime, while relatively high financing costs, typically ranging between 9% and 11% for commercial fleet financing, place added pressure on cash flows and profitability across EV-dependent businesses. At the operational level, employee familiarity with conventional vehicles and residual range anxiety may also moderate the pace of EV adoption within corporate fleets, requiring active change management by enterprises transitioning to cleaner mobility solutions.
Additional risks include evolving ESG disclosure requirements and emission standards, which could raise compliance costs; competitive pressure from both organized and unorganized players, including continued attempts by app-based ride-hailing aggregators to enter the sector despite their structural disadvantages in driver reliability, service consistency, and dedicated fleet resources; and potential moderation in economic growth that could affect corporate mobility spending. However, India's long-term macroeconomic outlook remains supportive of sustained sector expansion.
Refex remains focused on navigating this evolving landscape through disciplined capital allocation, a technology-first operating model, and operational agility, enhancing our ability to mitigate risks, capture opportunities, and drive sustainable long-term growth.

Conservation of Energy & Technology Absorption
During FY 2025–26, Refex's energy consumption profile reflects the nature of its diversified business operations, spanning refrigerant manufacturing, fly ash management, clean energy solutions, mobility services, and wind turbine manufacturing through its subsidiary operations. The Company's activities are not classified as energy-intensive under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, and no major energy-intensive manufacturing processes were undertaken during the reporting period. Nevertheless, the Company maintains a disciplined approach to energy monitoring and optimisation across all operational segments, recognising that responsible energy management is central to its long-term sustainability commitments.
The primary energy-consuming segment within the Company's direct operations is fleet transportation, specifically the heavy-haulage logistics fleet that supports the ash management and bulk materials handling businesses. Diesel remains the principal fuel for this segment, given the nature of long-distance bulk freight operations. Acknowledging this dependency, the Company has pursued a structured and multi-pronged strategy to progressively reduce per-unit fuel consumption and associated emissions. During FY 2025–26, several targeted initiatives were implemented to this end. Optimised route planning and algorithm-assisted dispatch protocols were deployed to minimise empty running, reduce trip turnaround times, and maximise load utilisation per vehicle movement, directly reducing fuel consumed per tonne of freight transported. Complementing this, GPS-enabled telematics systems were integrated across the entire fleet, enabling real-time visibility into route adherence, idling patterns, speed behaviour, and fuel consumption benchmarks, allowing fleet managers to enforce corrective action with precision and accountability.
The Company also significantly accelerated the deployment of BS-VI-compliant heavy haulage vehicles, which deliver materially superior fuel efficiency and emit substantially lower levels of particulate matter and nitrogen oxides compared to older engine standards. As of March 31, 2026, the Company operated approximately 123 heavy haulage vehicles, of which approximately 90% (around 111 vehicles) are BS-VI compliant, placing the Company among the more progressive operators in the bulk logistics segment in India. Alongside fleet modernisation, strengthened internal controls, including tamper-proof fuel sensors, driver accountability protocols, and periodic fuel audits, were institutionalised to prevent fuel pilferage. Periodic driver training programmes on fuel-efficient driving habits, including smooth acceleration, optimal speed range adherence, and engine braking, further contributed to measurable improvements in overall fleet fuel economy.
On the renewable energy front, the Company has made meaningful investments at both its manufacturing facility and corporate offices. The refrigerant manufacturing facility at Thiruporur, Tamil Nadu, operates entirely on solar power, making it effectively energy self-sufficient for its operational requirements, while also exporting surplus power to the grid. At the corporate level, a 43 kWp rooftop solar photovoltaic plant at the Chennai office is projected to generate approximately 51,600 kWh of clean electricity annually, resulting in an estimated avoidance of 37.5 MTCO₂e per year and approximately 937.5 MTCO₂e over its lifecycle.

Both corporate office premises in Chennai are equipped with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)-based air conditioning systems, enabling demand-responsive energy usage and delivering energy savings in the range of 20--40%, while also extending equipment lifespan and reducing maintenance requirements. These smart infrastructure upgrades reflect a holistic approach to energy efficiency across manufacturing, logistics, and administrative functions.
A key strategic driver of the Company's clean energy transition is Refex Green Mobility Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary focused on clean urban mobility solutions. During FY 2025--26, the subsidiary expanded its fleet by inducting 182 electric vehicles and 15 CNG-petrol vehicles, adding a total of 197 vehicles. This expansion directly reduces reliance on fossil fuel-based transportation and contributes to lower emissions, improved urban air quality, and reduced noise pollution. The inclusion of CNG vehicles reflects a pragmatic transition strategy in regions where EV infrastructure is still evolving. The initiative aligns with the Government of India's FAME II policy and supports the national goal of achieving 30% EV penetration by 2030.
In addition, the Company's subsidiary engaged in wind turbine manufacturing continued to adopt environmentally responsible and sustainable operational practices. As part of its circular economy initiatives, refurbished laptops and desktops were procured and deployed, extending the lifecycle of electronic equipment and reducing electronic waste. The Company also promoted the reduction of single-use plastics across office operations by encouraging the use of reusable glass bottles and paper-based documentation systems.
Further strengthening its resource efficiency initiatives, the subsidiary is in the process of implementing SAP S/4 HANA Public Cloud across operations. This digital transformation is expected to significantly reduce manual printing requirements for approvals, records management, and documentation processes, thereby lowering paper consumption and supporting energy conservation. At its Silvassa manufacturing facility, an authorised vendor has been engaged for the collection, handling, and safe disposal of hazardous waste, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and adherence to responsible waste management practices.
Collectively, these initiatives across the Company contributed to responsible resource utilisation, waste reduction, improved operational efficiency, and the strengthening of environmentally sustainable workplace practices.
Taken together, the Company's energy management and sustainability initiatives across FY 2025--26, spanning fleet modernisation, digital optimisation, renewable energy adoption, clean mobility expansion, circular economy practices, and responsible waste management, constitute a cohesive and strategically integrated response to contemporary energy and environmental challenges.
These initiatives are aligned with Refex's Sustainability Vision 2035, which includes achieving carbon neutrality, becoming water positive, advancing circular economy practices, and sourcing 50% of total energy from renewable sources across all companies. This vision continues to guide the Company's long-term commitment to building a sustainable, future-ready enterprise.

26. Overview of the entity's material responsible business conduct issues
Please indicate material responsible business conduct and sustainability issues pertaining to environmental and social matters that present a risk or an opportunity to your business, rationale for identifying the same, and approach to adapt or mitigate the risk along-with its financial implications, as per the following format
| S. No. | Material Issue Identified | R/O | Rationale for Identifying the Risk / Opportunity | Risk Adaptation & Mitigation Strategy | Financial Implication | Quantified Financial Impact Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SECTION A — GOVERNANCE, ETHICS & ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE | ||||||
| 1 | Legal & Regulatory Compliance | R | Non-compliance with SEBI BRSR/BRSR Core, MoEFCC environmental clearances, Mines Act, CGPDTM patents, GST/Income Tax, and labour statutes directly threatens licence to operate | ✓ Dedicated compliance cell ✓ Quarterly Board-level compliance reviews; independent legal counsel. ✓ BRSR Core early adoption; third-party | Negative | → Penalties/litigation: ₹0.5–5 Cr per instance → Proactive compliance reduces tail-risk premium on cost of capital |
| 2 | Corporate Governance & Business Ethics | R/O | Risk: Promoter pledge and corporate restructuring Institutional ESG funds now screen for governance quality before allocation. Opportunity: Robust governance is a direct lever for ESG rating improvement (NSE ESG Score: 70 in Governance, FY25). | ✓ Board ESG/Sustainability Committee constituted ✓ Code of Conduct, Whistleblower & Anti-Bribery policies in force. ✓ Target: Transparent disclosure of restructuring rationale. | Positive | → Better governance + lower cost of equity → Institutional FII/MF entry unlocks → NSE ESG Score improvement target: 70 + 80+ |
| 3 | Systemic & Enterprise Risk Management | O | Refex operates across asset-heavy, contract-dependent businesses (ash handling, coal supply, Mobility, wind). Concentration in thermal power off-takers (NTPC, state discoms) creates counterparty and policy risk. A structured ERM framework converts this into a competitive advantage. | ✓ Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework with ISO 31000 to be initiated ✓ Contract diversification: 40+ thermal plant clients across 14+ states. ✓ Digital fleet telematics (2500+ vehicles) for real-time operational risk monitoring. ✓ Business continuity planning (BCP) for all major operational sites. | Positive | → ERM reduces insurance premium exposure by 10–20% → Operational continuity protects the annual revenue base → Investor confidence premium → Access to sustainability-linked loans |

| S. No. | Material Issue Identified | R/O | Rationale for Identifying the Risk / Opportunity | Risk Adaptation & Mitigation Strategy | Financial Implication | Quantified Financial Impact Range |
| 4 | Economic Performance & Profitable Growth | O | Refex reported a revenue of ₹2,302 Cr in FY26. Managing sustainable growth, operational efficiency, and working capital remains a key focus for the organisation. | ✓ Revenue diversification: Wind and Mobility ✓ Long-term NTPC and state discom ash contracts provide revenue visibility. ✓ Capital allocation discipline: CAPEX in high-growth clean energy verticals. | ▲ Positive | → Clean energy verticals targeted incremental revenue by FY28 → Working capital strain requires monitoring → Revenue diversification reduces cyclical volatility |
| SECTION B — SOCIAL & HUMAN CAPITAL | ||||||
| 5 | Occupational Health, Safety & Worker Welfare | R | Refex's ash utilization operations involve 2,000+ vehicles, 40+ active power plant sites, heavy machinery, and exposure to ash (PM10/PM2.5). Worker H&S is both a compliance imperative and a reputational risk. | ✓ ISO 45001 OHSMS implementation across all major operational sites. ✓ Zero-harm culture programme; daily toolbox talks at all ash handling sites. ✓ Contractor Safety Management System aligned with NTPC and SEBI BRSR Core KPIs. | ▼ Negative | → Fatal accident compensation exposure → NTPC/SEBI contract disqualification risk on H&S non-compliance → ISO 45001 certification → preferred vendor status with PSU clients → Insurance premium reduction |
| 6 | Human Capital Development & Talent Retention | O | With 534 employees (FY26) and rapid scale-up across verticals (Ash utilization, Mobility, wind, etc), Refex faces critical talent demand. Attrition in specialised roles (fleet managers, environmental engineers, technicians) directly limits growth. | ✓ Structured L&D programme aligned with each business vertical's technical needs. ✓ ESOP/retention mechanisms for key management and technical personnel. ✓ Campus recruitment partnerships with engineering and management institutions in South India. ✓ Diversity hiring target: 15% women in professional roles by FY27. | ▲ Positive | → Each 1% reduction in attrition saves ₹0.5–1 Cr in re-hiring/training costs → Talent-led innovation in fleet AI and ash-to-product can unlock ₹50–100 Cr new revenue → Employer brand → 10–20% reduction in recruitment cost per hire |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | Community Relations, CSR & Social Licence to Operate | R/O | Risk: Ash handling operations are located near thermal power plants, often in ecologically and socially sensitive zones (MP, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Karnataka). Disrupted community relations can lead to operational shutdowns, protests, and project delays. Opportunity: Section 135 CSR obligations must be strategically deployed to build social licence. | ✓ CSR programmes aligned with communities - skill training and afforestation, water conservation ✓ Stakeholder grievance redressal mechanism at the site level. ✓ Rooftop solar commissioning at suitable locations | ↑ Positive | ✓ Strong Service Level Objective (SLO) reduces project delay risk ✓ CSR spend: ~71.5–3 Cr annually; strategic CSR multiplies brand ROI 3–5x ✓ Community alignment leads to positive business continuity |
| SECTION C — ENVIRONMENT, CLIMATE & CLEAN TECHNOLOGY | ||||||
| 8 | Carbon Neutrality and Net-Zero Strategy | R | Refex's 2500+ vehicle fleet, ash utilization generates Scope 1& 2 emissions. GHG emissions and energy intensity increased in FY26 vs FY25 due to the inclusion of more sites and an inclusive approach based on appropriate monitoring. Without a credible carbon neutrality and net zero strategy, Refex risks Oregulatory penalties, PSU contract exclusions, and ESG fund outflows. | ✓ Carbon Offset projects beyond the fence ✓ Adoption of energy-efficiency measures in the ash business and increased use of renewable energy across operations and value chains. | ↑ Negative | ✓ Green finance access: sustainability-linked bonds at 25–75 bps lower coupon ✓ GHG intensity improvement + ESG rating uplift + FII capital inflow |
| 9 | Energy Management & Operational Efficiency | O | High energy consumption across fleet, plant operations, represents both a cost risk and an efficiency opportunity. India's energy transition policy (National Solar Mission, Green Hydrogen Mission USD 21Bn) directly benefits Refex's clean energy verticals. | ✓ Route optimisation algorithms for vehicle fleet (fuel efficiency improvement). ✓ Exploring Rooftop solar suitable facilities | ↑ Positive | ✓ Fleet fuel efficiency improvement ✓ Renewable energy transition saves 75–12 Cr in electricity cost annually ✓ Wind segment revenue ✓ Energy and Carbon intensity reduction improves NSE ESG Environment score (61 + target 70+) |

| S. No. | Material Issue Identified | R/O | Rationale for Identifying the Risk / Opportunity | Risk Adaptation & Mitigation Strategy | Financial Implication | Quantified Financial Impact Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Water Stewardship & Wastewater Management | R | Ash handling at multiple thermal power plant sites in water-stressed states (MP, Chhattisgarh, Bihar) create an acute water consumption risk. | ✓ Developing Integrated Watershed management programs, Restoration of natural lakes/rivers, etc ✓ Water stewardship targets | Negative | → Regulatory water cess: ₹1-5 Cr annually if water norms breached → Water scarcity risk: ₹5 Cr revenue at risk per season for water-intensive sites → Water-positive target by 2035 |
| 11 | Ash Utilisation, Waste Management & Circular Economy | R/O | Risk: As India's largest organised ash handler, Reflex sits at the epicentre of the ash circular economy. MoEF mandates 100% ash utilisation by thermal plants. Non-utilisation is a regulatory risk; Opportunity: High-value ash-to-product conversion presents a transformative opportunity, with major customers such as UltraTech Cement, Adani, and ACC clients are incentivised to source processed ash. | ✓ ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification pursued for all operational sites. ✓ Ash-to-value partnerships: supply to cement, brick, and construction material manufacturers. ✓ Segregation of hazardous waste (vehicle waste oils, battery packs from EV fleet) per PCB norms. | Positive | → High-value ash processing (geopolymer, AAC blocks): revenue potential ₹50-200 Cr → Waste-to-product converts a cost centre into a revenue stream → ISO 14001 certification strengthens position in NTPC/state discomfort tenders |
| 12 | Biodiversity, Ecological Impact & Mine Rehabilitation | R | Ash pond rehabilitation and land restoration at abandoned mine sites near thermal power plants involve ecological risk (soil contamination, groundwater leaching, loss of biodiversity). TNFD (Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures) reporting is an emerging investor expectation. Ash handling in ecologically sensitive zones across MP, Bihar, and Chhattisgarh requires proactive land stewardship. | ✓ Ecosystem restoration and plantation drive (>10,000 trees planted). ✓ Biodiversity impact assessment (BIA) for greenfield sites aligned with IFC Performance Standards. ✓ Soil and groundwater monitoring around ash ponds per CPCB guidelines. ✓ TNFD-aligned nature risk disclosure | Negative | → Ecological remediation liability if ash pond contamination is confirmed → Regulatory closure orders on non-compliant sites: revenue loss → Nature-positive certification enables access to green bond market |

| 13 | Clean Technology, Renewable Energy & Green Business Opportunities | O | Refex is executing a deliberate pivot from a thermal-adjacent services provider to a multi-vertical green infrastructure conglomerate through Venwind, Refex Mobility. India's green transition is the single largest structural growth opportunity available to Refex. • National Green Hydrogen Mission (USD 21 Bn outlay) and PM Surya Ghar directly benefit Refex's clean energy portfolio. | ✓ Venwind Refex turbine supply & technical services ✓ Refex mobility: Clean fuel employee mobility fleet, BRSR Scope 3 solution for corporates. ✓ Renewable energy segment expansion | ▲ Positive | → Enhanced Clean energy revenue target → Green CAPEX qualifies for PLI incentives and green finance instruments → Corporate ESG mandates (BRSR Scope 3) drive demand for EV mobility services → ESG-driven re-rating: P/E expansion for pure-play green conglomerates |
| 14 | Climate Adaptation, Resilience & Just Transition | R/O | Risk: As India's coal-fired power fleet ages and retires, Refex must proactively manage the 'just transition' risk for its workforce and communities Opportunity: While capturing the clean energy upside. TCFD scenario analysis (1.5°C, 2°C, 4°C) is now an investor expectation. | ✓ Net-zero transition roadmap aligned with India's 2070 NDC target. ✓ TCFD scenario analysis for 1.5°C and 2°C pathways embedded in strategy planning from FY26. ✓ Climate risk integrated into the enterprise risk register and Board-level oversight. ✓ Acquisition of Venwind shares (73% + 77%) signals commitment to clean energy pivot. | ▲ Positive | → Transition risk: stranded asset exposure in coal logistics if India fast-tracks coal retirement → Resilience plan enables access to sustainability-linked loans (₹200–500 Cr at preferential rates) → TCFD-aligned disclosure unlocks global ESG index inclusion (MSCI ESG, FTSE4Good) → Early mover in just transition positions, Refex for green public procurement preference |
| 15 | Supply Chain Sustainability & Value Chain Resilience | R/O | Risk: Supply chain disruptions (as seen in semiconductor shortages affecting EVs) and ESG non-compliance by suppliers represent material risks. Opportunity: Refex's mobility fleets, Ash business logistics and vendors, owners/lessors, fuel suppliers, OEMs, importers, equipment vendors, and EV battery supply chains. SEBI BRSR Core now mandates value chain partner disclosures. | ✓ Supplier ESG Code of Conduct and self-assessment questionnaire rollout. ✓ Planning to initiate Preferred vendor status for suppliers with ISO 14001 / ISO 45001 certification. ✓ Fleet ownership diversification to reduce single-lessor concentration risk. ✓ EV battery supply chain risk: dual sourcing strategy and domestic cell procurement. | ▲ Positive | → Supply disruption Risk → BRSR Core value chain assurance compliance avoids regulatory penalty → Sustainable supply chain certification opens access to global ESG-screened institutional investors |

Governance, leadership and oversight
7. Statement by director responsible for the business responsibility report, highlighting ESG related challenges, targets and achievements (listed entity has flexibility regarding the placement of this disclosure)
It is with a deep sense of responsibility and genuine pride that I present Refex Industries Limited's Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report for FY 2025-26. This report is not merely a disclosure document. It is a reflection of who we are, what we stand for, and the kind of company we are determined to become. As we mark four years of this journey, our commitment to responsible business conduct has only deepened, and our actions, I believe, speak with growing clarity.
The world around us is changing faster than most boardrooms are willing to acknowledge. Water tables are falling, temperatures are rising, and communities that once thrived are now struggling. At Refex, we have chosen not to look away. This year, we crossed a meaningful threshold, moving from a company that speaks about sustainability to one that is structurally and irreversibly committed to it. Our refrigerant plant at Thiruporur now runs entirely on solar energy, exporting surplus power back to the grid. Our Refex Mobility business continues to drive measurable scope 3 emission reductions, and we have set a formal, science-backed pathway to Carbon Neutral Company by 2035 (Net Zero by 2040).
Water is where our heart has always been. This year, we moved beyond conservation into a Water Positivity commitment, pledging to return more water to nature and communities than we consume in our operations. We completed the restoration of the water bodies in Tamil Nadu and Odisha, bringing life back to a landscape that had quietly surrendered to neglect. Alongside this, we planted mangrove saplings along the Uyyalikuppam coast near Kalpakkam, restoring coastal ecosystems and strengthening nature's own defences against climate change. Our Ash Utilization business continues to advance our circular economy vision, transforming industrial ash into value through cement manufacturing, NHAI-grade road construction, and ash brick production, giving waste a second life and keeping materials in productive use rather than burdening the environment.
Sustainability, for us, has never stopped at the factory fence. This year, our CSR investments, once again exceeding the statutory mandate by three times, were directed with intention and care. We supported 100 Ekal Vidyalaya one-teacher schools, bringing quality education directly to 2,500 tribal children in India's most underserved geographies. We extended educational support to the Bhasma Residential School in Odisha and the Nextgen RCM Charitable Trust in Chennai, and awarded five scholarships through Ramakrishna School, each a quiet but deliberate investment in human potential. Healthcare access remained a priority as well, with services extended through The Madras Seva Sadan School. Every initiative is anchored to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, because we believe that a company's true footprint is measured not just in emissions, but in the lives it shapes.
Through our Centre for Business Leadership on Nature Restoration, co-established with UNGC Network India, we continue to advance biodiversity conservation as a boardroom imperative and not merely a reporting footnote. Inside our own operations, we recorded zero fatalities this financial year, and we have expanded our Zero Harm philosophy to encompass workforce mental well-being, because a truly safe workplace protects the whole person. To ensure all of this endures beyond any single leadership cycle, we have strengthened our ESG governance architecture with a Board-level Sustainability Committee, linked ESG outcomes to executive accountability, and are preparing for third-party BRSR Core assurance.
We do not publish this report to demonstrate compliance. We publish it because we believe the most important thing a company can do today is be honest about where it stands, clear about where it is going, and courageous enough to be held to account for the distance between the two. Refex is on that journey, and we are not turning back.

Refex Industries Limited has a well-defined and actively enforced framework to prevent and manage conflicts of interest at the Board level. Every Director is required to disclose any direct or indirect interest in matters before the Board and is expected to recuse themselves from related deliberations and voting. The Code of Conduct for Directors and Senior Management, supported by the Related Party Transactions Policy, ensures that personal or commercial interests never override the Company's obligations to its stakeholders. The Audit Committee independently reviews all related party transactions to confirm they are conducted at arm's length and in the ordinary course of business, while the Nomination and Remuneration Committee brings additional independence to decisions on appointments and remuneration. Directors submit annual declarations of their directorships, shareholdings, and material interests, enabling continuous and transparent monitoring. At Refex, this is not a compliance exercise but a lived governance commitment, rooted in our belief that integrity at the top sets the tone for the entire organisation.

- a. Does the entity have procedures in place for sustainable sourcing?
Yes. The company has a robust, sustainable sourcing procedure in place, wherein all new and existing supply chain partners are mandatorily evaluated on environmental, health & safety (EHS), and broader sustainability parameters before onboarding or renewal. This evaluation is embedded throughout the supplier lifecycle, ensuring continuous alignment with the company's sustainability commitments rather than functioning as a one-time assessment. The Supplier/Vendor Code of Conduct (CoC) serves as a binding framework that all partners must adhere to, covering strict EHS standards, including environmental impact, workplace safety, and regulatory compliance, as well as human rights standards encompassing ethical labor practices and the prevention of forced or child labor. By integrating these requirements into both the onboarding process and the CoC, the company ensures that sustainability remains a non-negotiable baseline expectation across all supply chain partnerships.

b. If yes, what percentage of inputs were sourced sustainably?
The Company is currently in the process of establishing a systematic mechanism to track and measure the percentage of inputs sourced sustainably. This data is expected to be captured and reported in subsequent reporting periods as the sustainable sourcing monitoring framework matures.
- Describe the processes in place to safely reclaim your products for reusing, recycling, and disposing at the end of life, for (a) Plastics (including packaging) (b) E-waste (c) Hazardous waste, and (d) other waste.
The Company does not have specified products that require a formal end-of-life reclamation process.
For Mobility and IT infrastructure, the company relies on OEM take-back programs, wherein OEMs reclaim end-of-life assets and replace them with new equipment, ensuring responsible disposal, refurbishment, or recycling in line with manufacturer-led sustainability practices.
With respect to plastics, e-waste, hazardous waste, and other waste streams, the company manages disposal through authorized vendors and recyclers in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, ensuring safe and environmentally responsible handling across all waste categories.
- Whether Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is applicable to the entity's activities (Yes / No). If yes, whether the waste collection plan is in line with the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) plan submitted to Pollution Control Boards? If not, provide steps taken to address the same.
No, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is not directly applicable to the Company's core business operations, as the Company is primarily engaged in Ash utilization services and does not manufacture, import, or sell products under EPR-notified categories such as plastic packaging, battery waste, or tyre waste under the Environment Protection Act, 1986. However, the Company proactively acknowledges its indirect EPR-related responsibilities arising from its operational assets end-of-life tyres and batteries from its vehicle fleet are disposed through authorised recyclers and OEM-linked take-back programs in compliance with the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022, while IT assets such as computers, servers, and peripherals are channelled through registered e-waste recyclers in compliance with the E-Waste Management Rules, 2022. The Company also gives procurement preference to OEMs with active EPR registrations and established take-back programs, ensuring responsible end-of-life management across its supply chain. Overall, the Company remains committed to aligning its waste management practices with applicable EPR regulations and its broader environmental sustainability goals.
Leadership Indicators
- Has the entity conducted Life Cycle Perspective / Assessments (LCA) for any of its products (for the manufacturing industry) or for its services (for the service industry)? If yes, provide details in the following format.
Refex Industries Limited has not conducted a formal Life Cycle Assessment during the current reporting period. As a predominantly service-oriented organisation, with our core businesses spanning mobility solutions, ash utilization services and wind energy, the nature of our operations does not involve direct manufacturing of products in the traditional sense that would necessitate a cradle-to-grave LCA under standard frameworks. Our environmental footprint is primarily associated with service delivery, fleet operations, and supply chain interactions rather than product manufacturing lifecycles. That said, we recognise the growing relevance of lifecycle thinking even within service businesses, and we are actively exploring the integration of lifecycle perspective into our environmental assessments, particularly for our refrigerant recovery and reclamation operations where material flows and emission impacts across the value chain are most significant. This remains an area of focus as we progressively strengthen our ESG measurement and reporting capabilities in the years ahead.
- If there are any significant social or environmental concerns and/or risks arising from the production or disposal of your products/services, as identified in the Life Cycle Perspective / Assessments (LCA) or through any other means, briefly describe the same along-with action taken to mitigate the same.
No LCA was carried out.

- Percentage of recycled or reused input material to total material (by value) used in production (for manufacturing industry) or providing services (for service industry).
Not applicable in the traditional sense, as we do not manufacture any product. However, our ash utilization business is built around the circular economy principle, providing end-to-end services to thermal power plants to maximise the recycling and reuse of ash that would otherwise be landfilled or stored in ash ponds. The ash collected from client power plants is channelled into high-value end-use applications primarily cement manufacturing, where ash partially replaces clinker; ash brick manufacturing, where it substitutes conventional clay; and road construction, where it serves as sub-base and embankment fill material replacing virgin aggregates. Through these channels, we enable thermal power plants to meet their ash utilization obligations under the MoEFCC Ash Notification while reducing dependence on natural resources across the construction and building materials sector.
- Of the products and packaging reclaimed at end of life of products, amount (in metric tonnes) reused, recycled, and safely disposed, as per the following format:
The Company's primary business operations do not generate significant end-of-life product reclamation obligations in the traditional sense.

- Health and safety management system:
a. Whether an occupational health and safety management system has been implemented by the entity? (Y/N). If yes, the coverage of such system
Yes. Refex Industries Limited has successfully implemented a comprehensive Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) conforming to the internationally recognised ISO 45001:2018 standard. The system is fully operational and covers 100% of the Company's operations, facilities, and offices, encompassing all employees, contractual workers, and on-site personnel across project and operational locations. The OHSMS framework is built around a structured Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle, ensuring continuous identification and mitigation of workplace hazards, risk assessment, incident reporting and investigation, emergency preparedness, and legal compliance monitoring. Regular internal audits, management reviews, and third-party surveillance audits are conducted to ensure the system's ongoing effectiveness and conformance. The successful implementation and maintenance of ISO 45001:2018 certification reflects the Company's unwavering commitment to providing a safe, healthy, and incident-free work environment for all its personnel and stakeholders across the value chain.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
^{}[] reflex
b. What are the processes used to identify work-related hazards and assess risks on a routine and non-routine basis by the entity?
Refex Industries Limited follows a structured hazard identification and risk assessment framework aligned with ISO 45001:2018, covering both routine and non-routine operations across all our business verticals.
For routine operations, trained safety officers and line supervisors conduct regular workplace inspections, job safety analyses, and task-based risk assessments. A live Hazard Register is maintained and reviewed periodically across all operational areas, with Safe Work Method Statements defined for every standard activity before work commences.
For non-routine activities such as maintenance shutdowns, contractor engagements, and process modifications, a mandatory Permit to Work system is enforced. No non-routine task proceeds without a documented pre-task risk assessment and approval from the designated safety authority. Our change management protocol ensures that any modification to processes or equipment is evaluated for new or altered risks before implementation.
In both contexts, risk controls follow the ISO 45001 hierarchy of controls, prioritising elimination and substitution over administrative measures and protective equipment. Near-miss reporting, incident investigations, and periodic safety audits feed continuously into our risk register, ensuring that every learning strengthens our controls. Equally important, every employee is empowered to report unsafe conditions without hesitation or consequence, embedding a culture where safety is owned by all and delegated to none. This disciplined, people-first approach is what has enabled Refex to record zero fatalities in FY 2025-26.
c. Whether you have processes for workers to report work-related hazards and to remove themselves from such risks.
Yes, Refex Industries Limited has well-defined processes that empower every worker to report work-related hazards through a structured near-miss and unsafe condition reporting system, accessible across all locations. Workers are actively encouraged to raise safety concerns without fear of consequence, with every report acknowledged, investigated, and acted upon without delay. Every worker also holds the unconditional right to remove themselves from any situation they reasonably believe poses an imminent risk to their safety, without requiring prior approval or facing any adverse consequence. These rights are communicated during induction and reinforced through regular safety training, fully aligned with our ISO 45001:2018 framework. This empowerment of our people is a core expression of our Zero Harm commitment, ensuring that no deadline or commercial pressure ever takes precedence over a person's safety.
d. Do the employees/workers of the entity have access to non-occupational medical and healthcare services?
Yes, Refex Industries Limited ensures that all employees and workers have access to non-occupational medical and healthcare services as part of our broader commitment to workforce well-being. This includes access to empanelled hospitals, medical reimbursement support, periodic health check-ups, and employee health insurance coverage extending to their immediate families.

- Describe the measures taken by the entity to ensure a safe and healthy workplace.
Refex Industries Limited's approach to workplace safety is anchored in a Zero Harm philosophy that tolerates no compromise, zero harm to people, property, and the planet. Our Occupational Health and Safety Management System, certified to ISO 45001:2018, provides the structural backbone for this commitment, embedding hazard identification, risk assessment, and control measures into every layer of our operations as a non-negotiable discipline rather than a periodic exercise.
Every employee and contract worker undergoes structured safety induction and continuous skill-based training, ensuring that safe working practices are understood, owned, and practiced on the ground rather than confined to policy documents. A robust Permit to Work system governs all non-routine and high-risk activities, while our live Hazard Register ensures that emerging risks are captured, evaluated, and controlled in real time. Workers are empowered to report unsafe conditions and withdraw from hazardous situations without hesitation or consequence, reinforcing a culture where safety is a shared responsibility and not a top-down mandate.
Regular internal audits and independent third-party assessments continuously test the effectiveness of our OHSMS, with findings reported directly to senior management to drive meaningful and measurable improvement. The results of this disciplined, people-first approach speak for themselves. Refex has recorded zero fatalities in FY 2025-26, a milestone we are proud of and equally determined to protect.

In instances where near-misses or unsafe conditions were reported, immediate corrective actions were initiated, including root cause analysis, revision of safe work procedures, targeted workforce training, and enhanced supervisory controls to prevent recurrence. Significant risks identified through periodic OHSMS audits and workplace assessments are logged in our Hazard Register, assigned to responsible owners, and tracked to closure with defined timelines. All corrective and preventive actions are reviewed by senior management, ensuring accountability and continuous improvement remain at the centre of our Zero Harm commitment.

Essential Indicators
- Describe the processes for identifying key stakeholder groups of the entity.
Refex Industries Limited follows a structured and rigorous process to identify and engage its key stakeholder groups, ensuring that our sustainability strategy is informed by those who matter most to our business and those whom our business impacts most.
Our stakeholder identification is grounded in a comprehensive mapping exercise that considers the nature of our operations, our service and product portfolio, the geographies we operate in, and the environmental and social footprint we leave behind. Stakeholders are classified into internal groups, comprising employees and contract workers, and external groups, encompassing customers, suppliers, value chain partners, regulatory authorities, local communities, investors, and media. This classification is not static — it is reviewed periodically to reflect changes in our business scope and operating context.
Our stakeholder engagement and materiality assessment framework is benchmarked to global best practices, drawing on the five-step engagement methodology of BRSR, one of the world's leading sustainable business networks, and validated through our collaboration with Ernst and Young. This process enables us to move beyond mere identification toward structured dialogue, understanding stakeholder expectations, concerns, and priorities with the depth and rigour that meaningful engagement demands. The outcomes directly inform our material topic selection, our ESG strategy, and our BRSR disclosures, ensuring that what we measure and report reflects what genuinely matters to our stakeholders and to our business. At Refex, stakeholder engagement is not a compliance checkbox but the very foundation upon which our sustainability decisions are built.

- Provide the processes for consultation between stakeholders and the Board on economic, environmental, and social topics or if consultation is delegated, how is feedback from such consultations provided to the Board.
The Company has constituted Board-level committees, including the CSR Committee, chaired by a Director, to oversee economic, environmental, and social (EES) governance in compliance with the Companies Act, 2013 and SEBI LODR. Stakeholder engagements are conducted periodically across key groups such as investors, employees, customers, suppliers, and communities to capture their views and concerns on material EES topics. Feedback from these engagements is reviewed and assessed by the relevant functional and sustainability teams for materiality and strategic relevance.

- Briefly describe the waste management practices adopted in your establishments. Describe the strategy adopted by your company to reduce the usage of hazardous and toxic chemicals in your products and processes and the practices adopted to manage such wastes.
The Company has implemented a robust Environmental Management System certified to ISO 14001:2015, encompassing all operations including offices, headquarters, manufacturing units, and industrial facilities. A dedicated waste management procedure governs the end-to-end lifecycle of waste covering identification, segregation, collection, recycling, and responsible final disposal supported by regular employee awareness training and third-party data assurance for performance monitoring. The Company does not engage in chemical manufacturing processes; consequently, hazardous and toxic chemical usage is minimal and managed through strict handling, storage, and disposal protocols in compliance with applicable environmental regulations.
A defining pillar of the Company's waste management strategy is its commitment to 100% circularity through its ash business. Ash generated as by-products of thermal power operations are systematically repurposed and redirected away from landfills into high-value circular applications. These include utilization as a raw material in brick and block manufacturing, replenishment of low-lying areas and land reclamation, and as a sustainable substitute for top soil in road construction and civil infrastructure projects, thereby eliminating the need for environmentally destructive top soil extraction. This circular model transforms waste into a productive resource, significantly reducing the environmental footprint of ash disposal while contributing to sustainable construction ecosystems. The Company is actively working towards achieving 100% ash utilization, reinforcing its broader commitment to a circular economy and responsible resource stewardship.
During FY 2025-26, Refex utilized 100% ash of repurposing across multiple end-use sectors, approximately 60% was utilized in road construction, 23% in the reclamation and backfilling of low-lying areas and abandoned mines, 14% in brick manufacturing, and 3% in cement production.
These utilization pathways supported sustainable infrastructure development while reducing dependence on virgin construction materials. The large-scale deployment of ash across diverse applications enhanced material productivity, enabled the productive use of industrial by-products, and contributed to the extension of material life cycles. Through these efforts, Refex continues to strengthen its role in advancing resource-efficient development and supporting the transition toward a more circular economy.

Leadership Indicators
- Water withdrawal, consumption, and discharge in areas of water stress (in kilolitres):
The Company's operations are not significantly located in areas classified as water-stressed as per the Water Risk Atlas (Aqueduct) or Central Water Commission assessments, and the overall quantum of water withdrawal, consumption, and discharge across its facilities is low and operationally insignificant. The Company's primary business of ash utilization is not a water-intensive activity, and water usage is largely limited to domestic and sanitation purposes at offices and project sites.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Members of Refex Industries Limited
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Refex Industries Limited ("the Company") which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2026 and the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended, including the statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Cash Flows and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the Ind AS financial statements, including a summary of material 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 Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ("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 31st 2026, its Profit including other comprehensive income, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Standalone Ind AS financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs), as 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 Ind AS 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 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 audit opinion on the Standalone Ind AS financial statements.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 44 to the financial statements, which describes the discontinuation of two of the Company's business segments:
- Power Trading Segment: As approved by the Board of Directors on August 12, 2025, the Company has initiated the process of discontinuing its Power Trading business and settlement of statutory obligations.
- Refrigerant Gases Business Segment: As approved by the Board of Directors on January 21, 2026, the Company has approved the discontinuation of its Refrigerant Gases business segment due to heightened competition and pricing pressures.
As detailed in the note, both activities qualify as discontinued operations, and the Company has separately disclosed the results from these discontinuing operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 105 (Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations).

Also, we draw attention to Note 14 to the financial statements, which describes the Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement:
- Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement: The Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held on September 22, 2025, had approved the draft Composite Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement amongst Refex Green Mobility Limited (“Transferor Company” or “RGML”), Refex Industries Limited (“Transferee Company” or “Demerged Company” or “RIL”) and Refex Mobility Limited (“Resulting Company” or “RML”) and their respective shareholders and creditors, under Sections 230 to 232 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the rules framed thereunder (“Scheme”), subject to receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, as may be applicable.
Additionally, as disclosed in the note, the Company has received ‘No Adverse Observation’ letters from BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited on March 16, 2026, and has subsequently filed the application/petition before the Hon’ble NCLT, Chennai bench on March 26, 2026, pending requisite regulatory approvals.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
| S. No. | Key Audit Matters | Auditor’s Response |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | Revenue recognition for ash disposal services The entity provides ash disposal services to various clients, involving collection, transportation, and disposal of ash material. Assessment of whether the entity properly identifies distinct performance obligations related to ash disposal services, considering factors such as contractual terms, service delivery schedule, and client expectations. Evaluation of the entity’s process for determining when control of the ash disposal services is completed. This involves reviewing contracts, service delivery documentation, and assessing whether the criteria for revenue recognition (such as customer acceptance, certification from third parties for completion of services) are met. The Company verifies the accuracy and completeness of the transaction price attributed to ash disposal services, including any variable consideration, discounts, and incentives offered to customers. | In view of the significance of the matter we applied the following audit procedures in this area, among others to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence: • Our audit procedures addressed whether the entity has correctly identified the distinct performance obligations in its Ash disposal contracts (e.g., Handling, transportation, disposal). • Assessing the appropriateness of the estimated adjustments in the process; • We assessed whether the entity has appropriately allocated the transaction price to the identified performance obligations. • We evaluated the effectiveness of controls over identifying and estimating variable consideration (e.g., volume-based fees) and tested the operating effectiveness of these controls to ensure accurate recognition of revenue associated with variable consideration. |
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
| S. No. | Key Audit Matters | Auditor's Response |
|---|---|---|
| The revenue recognition for ash disposal services is a significant audit matter due to the complexity involved in determining the appropriate timing and amount of revenue recognized under Ind AS 115. |
• We evaluated the entity's method for measuring progress towards completion of ash disposal services for long-term contracts. • We tested the calculations used to determine the amount of revenue recognized based on the actual quantity of ash disposed during the period. | |
| 2. | Evaluation and Impairment of High Value Trade Receivables and Contract Assets - Coal and Ash Handling Segment As of March 31, 2026, the value of trade receivables and contract assets relating to the Ash and Coal Handling segment amounted to Rs. 1,41,320.12 lakhs, representing approximately 58.34 % of the total assets. The recognition of contract assets requires significant management judgement, particularly in measuring quantities of ash disposed, and obtaining customer certification for work completed. Unbilled revenue and price variations are recognized based on contractual terms and quantity disposed based on the DPR prepared by the management. Estimation is involved in ascertaining sale quantity for unbilled revenue as the UOM considered for billing is different from the UOM adopted in the DPR. Daily Progress Report (DPR) is prepared by the management, recording the quantum of ash disposal made site-wise. Furthermore, the Company evaluates trade receivables for expected credit losses (ECL) using a provision matrix. This involves assessing customer credit risk, payment history, and applying historical loss rates adjusted for current and forecasted economic conditions. Due to the significant estimates and assumptions involved in determining the recoverability of contract assets and measuring the ECL on trade receivables of Ash and Coal Handling Business, we have identified this area as a key audit matter. |
Given the significance of trade receivables and contract assets, and the judgement involved in their recognition and impairment, our audit procedures included: • Reviewing key customer contracts to assess revenue recognition terms. • Verifying, on a sample basis, the computation of unbilled revenue and disposal quantity estimates. • Examining subsequent invoicing and collections post-balance sheet date to identify potential impairment indicators. • Assessing historical recoverability and reviewing customer communications for material and long-outstanding balances within this segment. • Testing internal controls over revenue recognition and ECL measurement. • Evaluating the Company's credit control procedures, ageing analysis, and impairment assessments. • Reviewing management's ECL model, including historical trends, current data, and forward-looking assumptions. • For aged contract asset balances, held discussions with management on timing and expectation of recoverability, historical payment records, status of certified dues and other relevant correspondence with customers to confirm that the carrying amounts remain appropriately measured and valid. |

| 3. | Assessment of Contingent liabilities in respect of certain litigations relating to direct taxes & indirect taxes and various claims led by other parties not acknowledged as debt. There is a high level of judgement required in estimating the contingent liabilities. The company’s assessment of contingent liabilities is supported by the facts of the matter, the Company’s judgement thereon, past experiences and advice from legal and independent tax consultants wherever necessary. Accordingly, unexpected adverse outcomes which may significantly impact the reported profits and net assets are disclosed in Note 34 of the financial statements. We identified the above area as Key Audit Matters in view of associated uncertainty relating to the outcome of these matters. | We have obtained an understanding of the Company’s procedure in respect of estimation and disclosure of contingent liabilities and adopted the following audit procedure: • Reviewing the current status and material developments of legal matters. • Examining recent orders from competent authorities and or communication received from various authorities, judicial forums and follow-up action thereon. • Review and analysis of evaluation of the contentions of the company through discussions, collection of details of the subject matter under consideration, the likely outcome and consequent potential outcomes on those issues Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and disclosures of contingent liabilities is considered to be adequate and reasonable. |
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report but does not include the Ind AS financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone Ind AS 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 standalone Ind AS financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the 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.
Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
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 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 Standalone Ind AS 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 Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Ind AS 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 standalone Ind AS 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 standalone Ind AS 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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
^{}[] reflex
-
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 standalone Ind AS financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
-
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 Standalone Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's 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.

(Referred to in paragraph 2(f) under 'Report on other legal and regulatory requirements' section of our report to the members of Refex Industries Limited of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")

Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing as specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

^{}[] reflex
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS financial statements.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting with Reference to these Financial Statements
A Company's internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these standalone IND AS 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 company's internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS financial statements includes those policies and procedures that
- pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
- 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
- provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting with Reference to these standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS 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 over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these standalone Ind AS 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, adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these standalone IND AS financial statements and such internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these standalone IND AS financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2026, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

A. Corporate Information:
Refex Industries Limited is a listed public company domiciled in India and incorporated under the provisions of Companies Act, 1956, having its registered office at "No.313, 2nd Floor, Refex Towers, Sterling Road, Valluvar Kottam High Road, Nungambakkam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu-600034". Its shares are listed on the BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited. The Company is in the business of Ash & Coal Handling Business, Solar Power - Generation and Related Activities, Sale of Services, Refrigerant Gases- Manufacturing & Refilling (Discontinued operations), Power Trading (Discontinued operations) and solar module trading.
(i) Handling and Disposal of Fly Ash:
Ash is the by-product from the burning of coal which is the fuel to all thermal power plants. 30-45% of the burnt coal is ash. This ash is full of heavy metals and toxins which if not handled properly could pollute air, land and water bodies.
During the running of a power plant ash is continuously produced and stored in silos which have to be continuously evacuated. The fly ash from the silos is a raw material required for the production of PPC cement, manufacturing of bricks, concreting of infrastructure projects like roads, bridges etc. This fly ash from the silos is transported in closed bulkers.
The excess undisposed ash from the silos is then sent to the ash dyke from where it is evacuated by filling in trucks for mine reclamation, filling of low-lying areas, embankments etc. as per the guidelines of Ministry of Mines and Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF).
Round the clock services for coal yard management, shifting of uncrushed coal and Housekeeping Works:
With immense experience in handling ash in large number of trucks and bulkers, company has ventured into providing coal yard management services.
Uncrushed coal from trucks is first stored in the coal yard in the form of heaps. This coal is then transported and fed into the track hoppers at the Coal Handling Plant area. The un-sized coal which doesn't pass through the grizzly is broken to smaller sizes before it goes through. These services are provided round the clock to ensure sufficient supply of coal to run the power plant uninterruptedly.
The Company also provides housekeeping services in the coal handling plant (CHP) areas like in the conveyor belt surrounding areas, cable trays, trenches, drains, sump pit where spilled coal is to be collected and shifted manually with adequate manpower to ensure the smooth functioning of the equipment.
(ii) Coal Trading:
The Company sources quality coal from domestic and international players and offer at competent prices to the power plants. With a boost in infrastructure in India, Refex foresees a tremendous growth in all the business segments.

B. Material Accounting Policies
B.1. Basis of Preparation of financial statements
a. Statement of Compliance
The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and amendments thereto issued by Ministry of Corporate Affairs under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. In addition, the guidance notes/announcements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) are also applied except where compliance with other statutory promulgations require a different treatment.
b. Preparation and compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND AS)
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
^{}[] reflex
Standalone notes forming part of Financial statements
as at and for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company considers the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these Standalone financial statements is determined on such a basis, leasing transactions that are within the scope of Ind AS 116, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in Ind AS 2 or value in use in Ind AS 36.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The principal accounting policies are set out below.
c. Historical Cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain assets and liabilities as stated in the respective policies, which have been measured at fair value.
B.2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies
a. Current / Non-current classification
The assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company's normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Act. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realisation in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities. Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

b. Revenue recognition
i) Revenue from Sales of goods and Electricity
The company manufactures and sells a range of refrigerant gases and generates electricity. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer's acceptance of the products. In case of electricity, sales are recognised when power generation is passed on to the electricity grid.
Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the customer has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made with the credit term, consistent with market practice.
A receivable is recognised when the goods/electricity are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.
ii) Revenue from sale of services
Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided. The proportion of service rendered is determined by cost involved for the project as against total cost. Any promise made in the contract, which are identified distinct is accounted for as a separate performance obligation. Where the contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. Where these are not directly observable, they are estimated based on expected cost-plus margin.
Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. In case of fixed-price contracts, the customer pays the fixed amount based on a payment schedule. If the services rendered by the company exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognised.

c. Interest income:
Interest income from, if any, non-current financial assets are recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.
Interest income from fixed deposits in banks is recognised on time proportion basis, determined by the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
Fair value gains on current investments carried at fair value are included in other income.
Other items of income are recognised as and when the right to receive arises.
d. Property Plant and Equipment
i) Tangible Assets
Freehold land is carried as historical cost. All other items of property plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and amortization and impairment. Historical cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties (Net of tax credits), labour cost and directly attributable overhead expenditure incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Profit or Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is recognised using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. The useful lives of assets are adopted to as specified by Schedule II to the Companies Act; 2013, in order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal of an item of property plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement or profit and loss.
ii) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortisation and cumulative impairment.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
Standalone notes forming part of Financial statements
as at and for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Other intangible assets
Specialized software is amortized over a period of five to ten years on straight line.
Intangible assets acquired are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortisation on impaired assets is provided by adjusting the amortisation charge in the remaining periods to allocate the assets' revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
iii) Impairment of assets
Assessment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the asset/ cash generating unit is made. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.
iv) Capital Work in Progress
The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and borrowing costs.
Expenses directly attributable to construction of property, plant and equipment incurred till they are ready for their intended use are identified and allocated on a systematic basis on the cost of related assets.
v) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of an item of PPE is allocated on a straight-line basis over its useful life as prescribed above.
If part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different from remaining part of the asset; such significant part is depreciated separately. Depreciation on all such items have been provided from the date they are 'Available for Use' till the date of sale / disposal and includes amortization of intangible assets. An item of PPE is derecognized upon

disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.
Depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition / till the date of disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of assets are determined by comparing the sale proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other income.
The residual values are not more than 5% of original cost of the asset. The asset’s residual value and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
e. Borrowing costs
The Company capitalises borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset as a part of the cost of the asset. The Company recognises other borrowing costs as an expense in the period in which it incurs them. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period to get ready for its intended use or sale.
To the extent the Company borrows generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, amount of borrowing cost eligible for capitalization is computed by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditure incurred. The capitalization rate is determined based on the weighted average of borrowing costs, other than borrowings made specifically towards purchase of a qualifying asset.
f. Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are accounted at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction or at rates that closely approximate the rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each Balance Sheet date at the closing rate are adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by the borrowings contracted, to which the exchange differences relate.
Exchange differences arising on settlement / restatement of short-term foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities of the Company are recognised as income or expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
g. Employee benefits
Employee benefits include provident fund, superannuation fund, employee state insurance scheme, gratuity fund, compensated absences, long service awards and post-employment medical benefits.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
Standalone notes forming part of Financial statements
as at and for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Short Term obligations
All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. The benefits like salaries, wages, short term compensated absences etc. and the expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised during the year when the employees render the service. These benefits include performance incentive and compensated absences which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service.
The cost of short-term compensated absences is accounted as under:
(a) in case of accumulated compensated absences, when employees render the services that increase their entitlement of future compensated absences; and
(b) in case of non-accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur.
Post-employment obligation
The company operates the following post-employment benefit schemes.
Defined benefit plans such as gratuity for its eligible employees and defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Defined Benefit Plan (Gratuity)
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by Actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on the government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Re-measurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the year in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

Defined Contribution Plan (Provident Fund)
The State governed provident fund linked with employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid/ payable under the scheme is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Other long-term employee benefits
The obligation for other long-term employee benefits such as long term compensated absences, liability on account of Retention Pay Scheme are recognised in the same manner as in the case of defined benefit plans as mentioned above.
h. Taxes on Income
Income tax expense represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax
The current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and it is intended to settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets — unrecognised or recognised, are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognised/ reduced to the extent that it is probable/ no longer probable respectively that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
Standalone notes forming part of Financial statements
as at and for the year ended March 31st, 2026
The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at balance sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and liabilities where the Company has a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities and where such assets and liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.
Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) is accounted as current tax when the Company is subjected to such provisions of the Income Tax Act. However, credit of such MAT paid is available when the Company is subjected to tax as per normal provisions in the future. Credit on account of MAT is recognized as an asset based on its recoverability in the future.
i. Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions
A provision is recorded when the Company has a present or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made, is termed as a contingent liability. Show cause notices are not considered as Contingent Liabilities unless converted into demand.
j. Leases
The Company, as a lessee, recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of the right-of-use asset. The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate.
For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
k. Cash and Cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, Balances in Bank and other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
I. Financial assets
Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
(i) Those measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income (in case of investments in equity instruments) through profit or loss (in case of investments in mutual funds)
(ii) Those measured at amortised cost
The classification is based on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flow for assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income.
Measurement
Initial Measurement
The Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement
Investments
Fair value through Profit and loss
Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.

Other financial assets
After Initial Measurement, financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium and fees or cost that are an integral part of EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward-looking basis; the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI debt instruments. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables (If any), the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected credit losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each Balance Sheet date, right from its initial recognition
De recognition of financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company's balance sheet) when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.
m. Financial Liabilities
Classification
The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities shall be subsequently measured at fair value
Initial recognition and measurement
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the liabilities are derecognised.
Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.

Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
n. Fair Value hedge
The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised through profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. The EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.

o. Dividend to Shareholders
"Any dividend declared by Refex Industries Limited is based on the profits available for distribution as reported in the statutory financial statements of Refex Industries Limited (standalone) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND-AS). Indian law permits the declaration and payment of dividend out of profits for the year or previous financial year(s) as stated in the statutory financial statements of Refex Industries Limited (standalone) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND-AS) after providing for depreciation in accordance with the provisions of Schedule II to the Companies Act. However, in the absence of the said profits, it may declare dividend out of free reserves, subject to certain conditions as prescribed under the Companies (Declaration and Payment of Dividend) Rules, 2014. Accordingly, in certain years the net income reported in these financial statements may not be fully distributable.
During the year, the company has declared 1st Interim Dividend for the Financial Year 2025-26 at the rate of 25% of face value of ₹2/- per equity share i.e. ₹ 0.50/- per equity share. Total outflow relating to this interim dividend is Rs. 646.40 Lakhs.
For the year ended March 31, 2026, the Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend at the rate of 50% of face value of ₹2/- per equity share i.e. ₹ 1/- per equity share, subject to the approval of shareholders at the ensuing Annual General Meeting ("AGM").
p. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.
q. Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward contract to manage its exposure to foreign exchange risks. Any derivative that is either not designated as a hedge or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is categorized as a financial asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value through profit or loss and the resulting exchange gains or losses/ fair value changes are included in Statement of profit or loss. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as current assets/current liabilities if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date.

r. Segment Information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM").
The board of directors of the Company assesses the financial performance and position of the Company, and makes strategic decisions. The board of directors has been identified as being the CODM. Refer note 39.
s. Prior Period
Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share. However, where retrospective restatement is not practicable for a particular period then the circumstances that led to the existence of that condition and the description of how and from where the error is corrected are disclosed in Notes on Accounts.
t. Cash flow statement
Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS 7 'Statement of Cash Flows'.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit/ (loss) before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of no cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. Cash flow for the year is classified by operating, investing and financing activities.
u. Critical Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and reported revenue and expenses for the year and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of balance sheet. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon the management's evaluation of the relevant circumstances as of the date of financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.
This note provides an overview of the areas that involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity, and of items which may be materially adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be different than those originally assessed. Detailed in about each of these estimates and judgments is included in the relevant notes together with information about the basis of calculation of each affected line item in the financial statements.
The areas involving critical estimates or judgments are:
i. Estimation of current tax expense and payable.
ii. Estimation of defined benefit obligation
iii. Estimation of useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangibles.

B.3. Standard issued but not effective
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), as part of India's continued convergence with IFRS, has initiated the process for introduction of Ind AS 118 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which is converged with IFRS 18 issued by the IASB in April 2024. Ind AS 118 is intended to replace Ind AS 1 (Presentation of Financial Statements) and focuses on improving how entities present and communicate financial performance, particularly in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
This standard is proposed to be applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2027, subject to final notification by the MCA through amendment to the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules
B.4. Recent Pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. During the year ended March 31, 2026, MCA has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2025 applicable to the Company w.e.f. April 1, 2025
a. Amendments to Ind AS 21 - Lack of exchangeability
The amendment requires the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position and cash flows.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1st April 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information. The amendments do not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

b. Amendments to Ind AS 1 – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities with Covenants
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments clarify:
- What is meant by a right to defer settlement
- That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
- That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
- That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the terms of a liability not impact its classification
In addition, a requirement has been introduced to require disclosure when a liability arising from a loan agreement is classified as non-current and the entity's right to defer settlement is contingent on compliance with future covenants within twelve months.
If there is a breach of a material covenant of a long term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period, resulting in the liability becoming payable on demand as at the reporting date, and the lender agrees—after the reporting period but before the financial statements are approved for issue—not to demand repayment for at least 12 months as a consequence of the breach, this shall be treated as an adjusting event. Accordingly, the entity is not required to classify the liability as current.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1st April 2025 retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8.
The amendments have resulted in additional disclosure in the financial statements, refer Note 17A (vi) but not had an impact on the classification of Company's liabilities.
c. Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 - Supplier Finance Arrangements
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107 Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements and require additional disclosure of such arrangements. The disclosure requirements in the amendments are intended to assist users of financial statements in understanding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on an entity's liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. As a result of implementing the amendments, the Company has provided additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangement. Please refer to Note 17C.

Note 36 - Financial Risk Management
The Company's activities expose to limited financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings or fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument.
The company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk (currency risk), Interest rate risk and the market value of its investments.
Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. It principally arises from the Company's Trade Receivables, Retention Receivables, Advances and deposit(s) made.
| Particulars | 31-03-2026 | 31-03-2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Current Trade Receivables | 73,730.89 | 67,363.31 |
| Cash & Cash Equivalents | 18,047.60 | 26,380.69 |
| Bank Balances other than (ii) above | 6,098.46 | 4,696.53 |
| Other Current Financial Assets | 6,264.84 | 2,155.60 |
| Total | 1,04,141.79 | 1,00,516.14 |
Trade Receivables
The company has outstanding trade receivables amounting to Rs. 73,730 Lakhs as at March 31,2026 and Rs. 67,363 Lakhs as at March 31, 2025. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The company is not exposed to concentration of credit risk to any one single customer. Default on account of Trade Receivables happens when the counterparty fails to make contractual payment when they fall due.
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) on Trade Receivables:
The Company applies the simplified approach prescribed under Ind AS 109 for recognition of Expected Credit Loss ("ECL") on trade receivables and contract assets.
The Company assesses impairment of trade receivables at each reporting date based on management's estimate of the recoverability of the outstanding balances. The ECL allowance is determined on a case-to-case basis after considering all relevant facts and circumstances available as at the reporting date.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
Standalone notes forming part of Financial statements
for the year ended March 31st, 2026
While evaluating the recoverability of receivables, management considers factors including, but not limited to:
- Ageing of receivables and historical payment trends;
- Creditworthiness and financial position of the customer;
- Past collection experience with the customer;
- Existence of disputes, claims, litigations or contractual issues;
- Subsequent receipts after the reporting date;
- Industry and economic conditions impacting the customer;
- Availability of collateral, security deposits, bank guarantees or other credit enhancements; and
Any other information indicating a significant increase in credit risk or impairment.
Receivables assessed as fully recoverable are not provided for. Specific provisions are created against receivables where, based on management's assessment, there exists an expectation of credit loss. The amount of provision represents management's best estimate of the expected shortfall in contractual cash flows considering all reasonable and supportable information available at the reporting date.
The Company reviews the adequacy of the impairment allowance at each reporting date and adjusts the provision based on changes in facts, circumstances and expectations of recovery. Actual credit losses may differ from these estimates.
Receivables considered irrecoverable are written off upon completion of the Company's internal recovery assessment and approval process.

Liquidity Risk
Our liquidity needs are monitored based on the monthly and yearly projections. The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, Term loan from Banks, and Contribution in the form of share capital.
We manage our liquidity needs by continuously monitoring cash inflows and by maintaining adequate cash and cash equivalents. Net cash requirements are compared to available cash in order to determine any shortfalls.
Short term liquidity requirements consist mainly of sundry creditors, expense payable, employee dues, repayment of loans and retention & deposits arising during the normal course of business as of each reporting date. We maintain a sufficient balance in cash and cash equivalents to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
We assess long term liquidity requirements on a periodical basis and manage them through internal accruals. Our non-current liabilities include Unsecured Loans from Promoters, Term Loans from Banks, Retentions & deposits.
The table below provides details regarding the contractual maturities of non-derivative financial liabilities. The table have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the company can be required to pay.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates does not have material impact on the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective entities. The company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks and the impact of which is found to be immaterial.
The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised through profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. The EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.

Note 44 - Discontinuing operations:
Power trading segment has not been a significant profit driver for Refex, with low volumes, lower margins, high compliance costs, and limited strategic fit with our core logistics and energy infrastructure strengths. Hence the Board on its meeting held on August 12, 2025, has approved the discontinuation of Power-Trading business, subject to all statutory and Regulatory approvals. This process includes Surrendering the trading license, settling all statutory obligations, and transparently communicating the rationale for exiting to key stakeholders. As a result, the activity qualifies as a discontinued operation under Ind AS 105. Accordingly, the Company has disclosed the profit from discontinuing operations separately from the profit from continuing operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Further, The Board of Directors approved the discontinuation of the Refrigerant Gases business segment at its meeting held on January 21, 2026. The segment accounted for approximately $2.50\%$ of the Company's total revenue and was impacted by operational and financial challenges due to heightened competition and pricing pressures. The discontinuation is intended to enable better allocation of management focus and capital towards the Company's core, higher-growth businesses, thereby improving capital efficiency and long-term value creation. As a result, the activity qualifies as a discontinued operation under Ind AS 105. Accordingly, the Company has disclosed the profit from discontinuing operations separately from the profit from continuing operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss.

To the Members of Refex Industries Limited
Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Refex Industries Limited (“the Holding Company”) and its subsidiary company (holding company and its subsidiary together referred to as “the Group”) which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2026 and the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended, including the statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Cash Flow Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for the year then ended, and notes to the Ind AS financial statements, including a summary of material 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 consolidated Ind AS financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“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 Group as at March 31, 2026, its Profit including other comprehensive income, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Consolidated Ind AS financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs), as 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 Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements' section of our report. We are independent of the Group 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 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 audit opinion on the Consolidated Ind AS financial statements.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 47 to the financial statements, which describes the following significant matters:
-
Discontinuation of Business Segments: The Group has initiated the discontinuation of its Power Trading and Refrigerant Gases business segments as approved by the Board of Directors of the Holding Company on August 12, 2025, and January 21, 2026, respectively. Both activities qualify as discontinued operations, and the Group has separately disclosed the results from these discontinuing operations in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss in accordance with Ind AS 105 (Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations).
-
Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement: The Board of Directors of the Holding Company, at its meeting held on September 22, 2025, had approved the draft Composite Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement amongst Refex Green Mobility Limited (“Transferor Company” or “RGML”), Refex Industries Limited (“Transferee Company” or “Demerged Company” or “RIL”) and

Refex Mobility Limited (“Resulting Company” or “RML”) and their respective shareholders and creditors, under Sections 230 to 232 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the rules framed thereunder (“Scheme”), subject to receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, as may be applicable.
Additionally, as disclosed in the note, the Holding Company has received ‘No Adverse Observation’ letters from BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited on March 16, 2026, and has subsequently filed the application/petition before the Hon’ble NCLT, Chennai bench on March 26, 2026, pending requisite regulatory approvals
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
| S. No. | Key Audit Matters | Auditor’s Response |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | Revenue recognition for ash disposal services The entity provides ash disposal services to various clients, involving collection, transportation, and disposal of ash material. Assessment of whether the entity properly identifies distinct performance obligations related to ash disposal services, considering factors such as contractual terms, service delivery schedule, and client expectations. Evaluation of the entity's process for determining when control of the ash disposal services is completed. This involves reviewing contracts, service delivery documentation, and assessing whether the criteria for revenue recognition (such as customer acceptance, certification from third parties for completion of services) are met. The Group verifies the accuracy and completeness of the transaction price attributed to ash disposal services, including any variable consideration, discounts, and incentives offered to customers. The revenue recognition for ash disposal services is a significant audit matter due to the complexity involved in determining the appropriate timing and amount of revenue recognized under Ind AS 115. | In view of the significance of the matter we applied the following audit procedures in this area, among others to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence: • Our audit procedures addressed whether the entity has correctly identified the distinct performance obligations in its Ash disposal contracts (e.g., Handling, transportation, disposal). • Assessing the appropriateness of the estimated adjustments in the process; • We assessed whether the entity has appropriately allocated the transaction price to the identified performance obligations. • We evaluated the effectiveness of controls over identifying and estimating variable consideration (e.g., volume-based fees) and tested the operating effectiveness of these controls to ensure accurate recognition of revenue associated with variable consideration. • We evaluated the entity's method for measuring progress towards completion of ash disposal services for long-term contracts. • We tested the calculations used to determine the amount of revenue recognized based on the actual quantity of ash disposed during the period. |

|---|---|---|
| 2. | Evaluation and Impairment of High Value Trade Receivables and Contract Assets - Coal and Ash Handling Segment As of March 31, 2026, the value of trade receivables and contract assets relating to the Ash and Coal Handling segment amounted to Rs. 1,41,320.13 lakhs, representing approximately 58.34 % of the total assets. The recognition of contract assets requires significant management judgement, particularly in measuring quantities of ash disposed, and obtaining customer certification for work completed. Unbilled revenue and price variations are recognized based on contractual terms and quantity disposed based on the DPR prepared by the management. Estimation is involved in ascertaining sale quantity for unbilled revenue as the UOM considered for billing is different from the UOM adopted in the DPR. Daily Progress Report (DPR) is prepared by the management, recording the quantum of ash disposal made site-wise. Furthermore, the Group evaluates trade receivables for expected credit losses (ECL) using a provision matrix. This involves assessing customer credit risk, payment history, and applying historical loss rates adjusted for current and forecasted economic conditions. Due to the significant estimates and assumptions involved in determining the recoverability of contract assets and measuring the ECL on trade receivables of Ash and Coal Handling Business, we have identified this area as a key audit matter. | Given the significance of trade receivables and contract assets, and the judgement involved in their recognition and impairment, our audit procedures included: Reviewing key customer contracts to assess revenue recognition terms. Verifying, on a sample basis, the computation of unbilled revenue and disposal quantity estimates. Examining subsequent invoicing and collections post-balance sheet date to identify potential impairment indicators. Assessing historical recoverability and reviewing customer communications for material and long-outstanding balances within this segment. Testing internal controls over revenue recognition and ECL measurement. Evaluating the Group credit control procedures, ageing analysis, and impairment assessments. Reviewing management’s ECL model, including historical trends, current data, and forward-looking assumptions. For aged contract asset balances, held discussions with management on timing and expectation of recoverability, historical payment records, status of certified dues and other relevant correspondence with customers to confirm that the carrying amounts remain appropriately measured and valid. |

| 3. | Assessment of Contingent liabilities in respect of certain litigations relating to direct taxes & indirect taxes and various claims led by other parties not acknowledged as debt. There is a high level of judgement required in estimating the contingent liabilities. The Group assessment of contingent liabilities is supported by the facts of the matter, the Group judgement thereon, past experiences and advice from legal and independent tax consultants wherever necessary. Accordingly, unexpected adverse outcomes which may significantly impact the reported profits and net assets are disclosed in Note 38 of the financial statements. We identified the above area as Key Audit Matters in view of associated uncertainty relating to the outcome of these matters. | We have obtained an understanding of the Group procedure in respect of estimation and disclosure of contingent liabilities and adopted the following audit procedure: • Reviewing the current status and material developments of legal matters. • Examining recent orders from competent authorities and/ or communication received from various authorities, judicial forums and follow-up action thereon. • Review and analysis of evaluation of the contentions of the Group through discussions, collection of details of the subject matter under consideration, the likely outcome and consequent potential outcomes on those issues Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and disclosures of contingent liabilities is considered to be adequate and reasonable. |
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
We the Holding Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report but does not include the Ind AS financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated Ind AS 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 consolidated Ind AS financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the 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.
Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
The Holding 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 Consolidated Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Group in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the accounting standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
^{}[] reflex
This respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Group 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 statements 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 Consolidated Financial Statements by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the Consolidated Ind AS financial statements, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for assessing the Group'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 respective Board of Directors either intends to liquidate their respective entities or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group.
Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Consolidated Ind AS 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 consolidated Ind AS 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 consolidated Ind AS 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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Holding Company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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 Group'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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the consolidated Ind AS financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in
(i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and
(ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financial statements.
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 Consolidated Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's 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.

^{}[] Financial Reports
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS 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 auditor's judgement, 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 internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS financial statements.
Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting with Reference to these Financial Statements
A Company's internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS 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 company's internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS financial statements includes those policies and procedures that,
- pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Group;
- 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 Group are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Group; and
- provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Group assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting with Reference to these consolidated Ind AS Financial Statements
Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS 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 over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these consolidated Ind AS financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The fly ash from the silos is a raw material required for the production of PPC cement, manufacturing of bricks, concreting of infrastructure projects like roads, bridges etc. This fly ash from the silos is transported in closed bulkers.
The excess undisposed ash from the silos is then sent to the ash dyke from where is it evacuated by filling in trucks for mine reclamation, filling of low-lying areas, embankments etc. as per the guidelines of Ministry of Mines and Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF).

With immense experience in handling ash in large number of trucks and bulkers, company have ventured into providing coal yard management services.
Uncrushed coal from trucks is first stored in the coal yard in the form of heaps. This coal is then transported and fed into the track hoppers at the Coal Handling Plant area. The un-sized coal which doesn't pass through the grizzly is broken to smaller sizes before it goes through. These services are provided round the clock to ensure sufficient supply of coal to run the power plant uninterruptedly.
The Company also provide housekeeping services in the coal handling plant (CHP) areas like in the conveyor belt surrounding areas, cable trays, trenches, drains, sump pit where spilled coal is to be collected and shifted manually with adequate manpower to ensure the smooth functioning of the equipment.

In addition, the guidance notes/announcements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) are also applied except where compliance with other statutory promulgations require a different treatment.
b. Preparation and compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND AS)
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is in addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2, or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The principal accounting policies are set out below.
c. Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. For this purpose, an entity which is, directly or indirectly, controlled by the Parent Company is treated as subsidiary. The Parent Company together with its subsidiaries constitute the Group. Control exists when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, has power over the investee, is exposed to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, loses control of the subsidiary. Income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired are included in the Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss from the date the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, gains control until the date when the Parent Company, directly or indirectly, ceases to control the subsidiary.
The consolidated financial statements of the Group combine financial statements of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries line-by-line by adding together the like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. All intra-group assets, liabilities, income, subsidiaries are harmonised to ensure the consistency with the policies adopted by the Parent Company. The consolidated financial statements are presented to the extent possible, in the same manner as Parent Company's standalone financial statements. Profit or loss and other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Parent Company and to the non-controlling interests, shown separately in the consolidated financial statements.
Non-controlling interests represent that part of the total comprehensive income and net assets of subsidiaries attributable to the interest which is not owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent Company.
The gains/losses in respect of part divestment/dilution of stake in subsidiary companies not resulting in ceding of control, are recognised directly in other equity attributable to the owners of the Parent Company in the consolidated financial statements of the Group.
d. Historical Cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under historical cost convention on accrual basis except for certain assets and liabilities as stated in the respective policies, which have been measured at fair value.

B.2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies
a. Current / Non-current classification
The assets and liabilities have been classified as current or non-current as per the Company's normal operating cycle and other criteria set out in the Schedule III to the Act. Based on the nature of products and the time between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash and cash equivalents, the Company has ascertained its operating cycle as 12 months for the purpose of current and non-current classification of assets and liabilities. Cash or cash equivalent is treated as current, unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
b. Revenue recognition
i) Revenue from Sales of goods and Electricity
The company manufactures and sells a range of refrigerant gases and generates electricity. Sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer's acceptance of the products. In case of electricity, sales are recognised when power generation is passed on to the electricity grid.
Delivery occurs when the products have been shipped to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customers has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the customer has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied.
Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated volume discounts. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the discounts, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made with the credit term, consistent with market practice.
A receivable is recognised when the goods/electricity are delivered as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.

ii) Revenue from sale of services
Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided the proportion of service rendered is determined by cost involved for the project as against total cost. Any promise made in the contract, which are identified distinct is accounted for as a separate performance obligation. Where the contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. Where these are not directly observable, they are estimated based on expected cost-plus margin.
Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress toward completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. In case of fixed-price contracts, the customer pays the fixed amount based on a payment schedule. If the services rendered by the company exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognised.
Consideration is generally due upon satisfaction of performance obligations and receivable is recognised when it becomes unconditional.
iii) Revenue from Electric Vehicles
Revenue from transportation services is recognized in accordance with Ind AS 115 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when control of the service is transferred to the customer, i.e., when the transportation service is rendered. Revenue is measured based on the agreed contractual rates with corporate clients, net of taxes and discounts.
Unbilled revenue for services rendered but not yet invoiced is recognized as Contract Asset. Income received in advance is recognized as Contract Liability.
iv) Revenue from Windpower
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods or services are rendered to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for discounts and other incentives, if any, as specified in the contract with the customer. Revenue also excludes taxes or other amounts collected from customers in its capacity as an agent. If the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

c. Interest income:
Interest income from, if any, non-current financial assets are recognised using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the gross carrying amount of a financial asset.
Interest income from fixed deposits in banks is recognised on time proportion basis, determined by the amount outstanding and the rate applicable.
Fair value gains on current investments carried at fair value are included in other income.
Other items of income are recognised as and when the right to receive arises.
d. Property Plant and Equipment
i) Tangible Assets
Freehold land is carried as historical cost. All other items of property plant and equipment are stated at historical cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation and amortization and impairment. Historical cost includes purchase price, taxes and duties (Net of tax credits), labour cost and directly attributable overhead expenditure incurred upto the date the asset is ready for its intended use.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Profit or Loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is recognised using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each year, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. The useful lives of assets are adopted to as specified by Schedule II to the Companies Act; 2013, in order to reflect the actual usage of the assets. The residual values are not more than 5% of the original cost of the asset.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal of an item of property plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement or profit and loss.
ii) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are recognised when it is probable that future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are stated at original cost net of tax/duty credits availed, if any, less accumulated amortisation and cumulative impairment.

March 31st, 2026
Other intangible assets
Specialized software is amortized over a period of Six to ten years on straight line there is no time period, only subscription payable basis from the month in which the addition is made.
Intangible assets acquired are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Amortisation on impaired assets is provided by adjusting the amortisation charge in the remaining periods to allocate the assets' revised carrying amount over its remaining useful life.
iii) Impairment of assets
Assessment is done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an asset (tangible and intangible) may be impaired. If any such indication exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount of the asset/ cash generating unit is made. For the purpose of assessing impairment, the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets, is considered as a cash generating unit. Assets whose carrying value exceeds their recoverable amount are written down to the recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is higher of an asset's or cash generating unit's net selling price and its value in use. Value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Assessment is also done at each Balance Sheet date as to whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised for an asset in prior accounting periods may no longer exist or may have decreased.
iv) Capital Work in Progress
The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management and borrowing costs.
Expenses directly attributable to construction of property, plant and equipment incurred till they are ready for their intended use are identified and allocated on a systematic basis on the cost of related assets.
v) Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation
The depreciable amount of an item of PPE is allocated on a straight-line basis over its useful life as prescribed above.
If part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the asset and useful life of that part is different from remaining part of the asset; such significant part is depreciated separately. Depreciation on all such items have been provided from the date they are 'Available for Use' till the date of sale / disposal and includes amortization of intangible assets. An item of PPE is derecognized upon

for the year ended March 31st, 2026
disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.
Depreciation is charged on pro-rata basis from the date of addition / till the date of disposal. Gains and losses on disposal of assets are determined by comparing the sale proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in profit or loss within other income.
The residual values are not more than 5% of original cost of the asset. The asset's residual value and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
e. Borrowing costs
The Company capitalises borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying asset as a part of the cost of the asset. The Company recognises other borrowing costs as an expense in the period in which it incurs them. A qualifying asset is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period to get ready for its intended use or sale.
To the extent the Company borrows generally and uses them for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, amount of borrowing cost eligible for capitalization is computed by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditure incurred. The capitalization rate is determined based on the weighted average of borrowing costs, other than borrowings made specifically towards purchase of a qualifying asset.
f. Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies entered into by the Company are accounted at the exchange rates prevailing on the date of the transaction or at rates that closely approximate the rate at the date of the transaction.
Exchange differences that arise on settlement of monetary items or on reporting of monetary items at each Balance Sheet date at the closing rate are adjusted in the cost of fixed assets specifically financed by the borrowings contracted, to which the exchange differences relate.
Exchange differences arising on settlement / restatement of short-term foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities of the Company are recognised as income or expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
g. Employee benefits
Employee benefits include provident fund, superannuation fund, employee state insurance scheme, gratuity fund, compensated absences, long service awards and post-employment medical benefits.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
For the year ended March 31, 2026
Short Term obligations
All employee benefits falling due wholly within twelve months of rendering the service are classified as short-term employee benefits. The benefits like salaries, wages, short term compensated absences etc. and the expected cost of bonus, ex-gratia are recognised in the period in which the employee renders the related service.
The undiscounted amount of short-term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for the services rendered by employees are recognised during the year when the employees render the service. These benefits include performance incentive and compensated absences which are expected to occur within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employee renders the related service.
The cost of short-term compensated absences is accounted as under:
(a) in case of accumulated compensated absences, when employees render the services that increase their entitlement of future compensated absences; and
(b) in case of non-accumulating compensated absences, when the absences occur.
Post-employment obligation
The company operates the following post-employment benefit schemes.
Defined benefit plans such as gratuity for its eligible employees and defined contribution plans such as provident fund.
Defined Benefit Plan (Gratuity)
The liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit gratuity plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by Actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows by reference to market yields at the end of the reporting period on the government bonds that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation.
The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expense in the statement of profit and loss.
Re-measurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in the year in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained earnings in the statement of changes in equity and in the balance sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are recognised immediately in profit or loss as past service cost.

Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Defined Contribution Plan (Provident Fund)
The State governed provident fund linked with employee pension scheme are defined contribution plans. The contribution paid/ payable under the scheme is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related service.
Other long-term employee benefits
The obligation for other long-term employee benefits such as long term compensated absences, liability on account of Retention Pay Scheme are recognised in the same manner as in the case of defined benefit plans as mentioned above.
h. Taxes on Income
Income tax expense represents the sum of the current tax and deferred tax.
Current tax
The current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from 'profit before tax' as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Company's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and it is intended to settle the liability on a net basis or simultaneously.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet approach on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax assets to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets - unrecognised or recognised, are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognised/ reduced to the extent that it is probable/ no longer probable respectively that the related tax benefit will be realised.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
For the year ended March 31, 2026
The break-up of the major components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities as at balance sheet date has been arrived at after setting off deferred tax assets and liabilities where the Company has a legally enforceable right to set-off assets against liabilities and where such assets and liabilities relate to taxes on income levied by the same governing taxation laws.
Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) is accounted as current tax when the Company is subjected to such provisions of the Income Tax Act. However, credit of such MAT paid is available when the Company is subjected to tax as per normal provisions in the future. Credit on account of MAT is recognized as an asset based on its recoverability in the future.
i. Provisions and contingent liabilities
Provisions
A provision is recorded when the Company has a present or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation arising from past events, the existence of which will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company or a present obligation that arises from past events where it is either not probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle or a reliable estimate of the amount cannot be made, is termed as a contingent liability. Show cause notices are not considered as Contingent Liabilities unless converted into demand.
j. Leases
The Company, as a lessee, recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for its leasing arrangements, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. The contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, if it involves the use of an identified asset and the Company has substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and has the right to direct the use of the identified asset. The cost of the right-of-use asset shall comprise of the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date plus any initial direct costs incurred. The right-of-use assets is subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses, if any and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date over the shorter of lease term or useful life of the right-of-use asset. The Company measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date of the lease. The
^{}[] Annual Report 2025-26
^{}[] Financial Reports
Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
for the year ended March 31st, 2026
lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate.
For short-term and low value leases, the Company recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
k. Cash and Cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, Balances in Bank and other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
1. Financial assets
Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
(i) Those measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income (in case of investments in equity instruments) through profit or loss (in case of investments in mutual funds)
(ii) Those measured at amortised cost
The classification is based on the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flow for assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income.
Measurement
Initial Measurement
The Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus cost that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss.
Subsequent measurement
Investments
Fair value through Profit and loss
Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or Fair Value Through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI) are measured at fair value through profit or loss. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss and presented net in the statement of profit and loss within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
^{}[] www.refex.co.in
Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
For the year ended March 31st, 2026
Other financial assets
After Initial Measurement, financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method (EIR) method. Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium and fees or cost that are an integral part of EIR. The EIR amortization is included in finance income in the statement of profit and loss. The losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of profit and loss.
Investments
Impairment of financial assets
The Company assesses on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at amortised cost and FVOCI debt instruments. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been significant increase in credit risk.
For trade receivables (If any), the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by Ind AS 109 Financial Instruments, which requires expected credit losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
The application of simplified approach does not require the Company to track changes in credit risk. Rather, it recognises impairment loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each Balance Sheet date, right from its initial recognition.
De recognition of financial assets
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e. removed from the Company's balance sheet) when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.
m. Financial Liabilities
Classification
The Company classifies all financial liabilities as subsequently measured at amortised cost, except for financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. Such liabilities shall be subsequently measured at fair value
Initial recognition and measurement
The Company's financial liabilities include trade and other payables, loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Loans and borrowings
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss when the liabilities are derecognised.
^{}[] Financial Reports
Consolidated notes forming part of Financial statements
for the year ended March 31st, 2026
Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the Statement of Profit and Loss. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.
Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
n. Derivatives
Any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are recognized in the Statement of Profit and Loss, except for the effective portion of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, which is initially recognized in Other Comprehensive Income and subsequently reclassified to the Statement of Profit and Loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss, or is adjusted against the cost of the related non-financial asset or non-financial liability if the hedged forecast transaction results in such recognition.
Fair Value hedge
The change in the fair value of a hedging instrument is recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk hedged is recorded as part of the carrying value of the hedged item and is also recognised in the statement of profit or loss as other expense.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised through profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. The EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.

Cash Flow hedge
The Company Designates Foreign exchange futures contract as cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of foreign exchange exposure on highly probable forecast cash transactions. When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the cash flow hedge reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized in the net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedge reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in cash flow hedge reserve until the forecasted transaction occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the cash flow hedge reserve is transferred to the net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss upon the occurrence of the related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amount accumulated in cash flow hedge reserve is reclassified to net profit in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Dividend to Shareholders
Any dividend declared by Refex Industries Limited is based on the profits available for distribution as reported in the statutory financial statements of Refex Industries Limited (standalone) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND-AS). Indian law permits the declaration and payment of dividend out of profits for the year or previous financial year(s) as stated in the statutory financial statements of Refex Industries Limited (standalone) prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (IND-AS) after providing for depreciation in accordance with the provisions of Schedule II to the Companies Act. However, in the absence of the said profits, it may declare dividend out of free reserves, subject to certain conditions as prescribed under the Companies (Declaration and Payment of Dividend) Rules, 2014. Accordingly, in certain years the net income reported in these financial statements may not be fully distributable.
During the year, the company has declared 1st Interim Dividend for the Financial Year 2025-26 at the rate of 25% of face value of ₹2/- per equity share i.e. ₹ 0.50/- per equity share. Total outflow relating to this interim dividend is Rs. 646.40 Lakhs.
For the year ended March 31, 2026, the Board of Directors has recommended a final dividend at the rate of 50% of face value of ₹2/- per equity share i.e. ₹ 1/- per equity share, subject to the approval of shareholders at the ensuing Annual General Meeting ("AGM").
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year.
For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit or loss for the year attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year are adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential equity shares.

q. Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, such as forward contract to manage its exposure to foreign exchange risks. Any derivative that is either not designated as a hedge or is so designated but is ineffective as per Ind AS 109, is categorized as a financial asset or financial liability, at fair value through profit or loss. Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value through profit or loss and the resulting exchange gains or losses/ fair value changes are included in Statement of profit or loss. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Assets/ liabilities in this category are presented as current assets/current liabilities if they are either held for trading or are expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date.
r. Segment Information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM").
The board of directors of the Company assesses the financial performance and position of the Company, and makes strategic decisions. The board of directors has been identified as being the CODM. Refer note 42.
s. Prior Period
Errors of material amount relating to prior period(s) are disclosed by a note with nature of prior period errors, amount of correction of each such prior period presented retrospectively, to the extent practicable along with change in basic and diluted earnings per share. However, where retrospective restatement is not practicable for a particular period then the circumstances that led to the existence of that condition and the description of how and from where the error is corrected are disclosed in Notes on Accounts.
t. Cash flow statement
Cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method prescribed in Ind AS 7 'Statement of Cash Flows'.
Cash flows are reported using the indirect method, whereby profit/ (loss) before tax is adjusted for the effects of transactions of no cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments. Cash flow for the year is classified by operating, investing and financing activities.
u. Critical Estimates and Judgements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and reported revenue and expenses for the year and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of balance sheet. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying financial statements are based upon the management's evaluation of the relevant circumstances as of the date of financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.

B.3. Standard issued but not effective
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), as part of India's continued convergence with IFRS, has initiated the process for introduction of Ind AS 118 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which is converged with IFRS 18 issued by the IASB in April 2024. Ind AS 118 is intended to replace Ind AS 1 (Presentation of Financial Statements) and focuses on improving how entities present and communicate financial performance, particularly in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
This standard is proposed to be applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2027, subject to final notification by the MCA through amendment to the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules
B.4. Recent Pronouncements
Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") notifies new standards or amendments to the existing standards under Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules as issued from time to time. During the year ended March 31, 2026, MCA has notified the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2025 applicable to the Company w.e.f. April 1, 2025
a. Amendments to Ind AS 21 - Lack of exchangeability
The amendment requires the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates to specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position and cash flows.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1st April 2025. When applying the amendments, an entity cannot restate comparative information. The amendments do not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

b. Amendments to Ind AS 1 – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Non-current Liabilities with Covenants
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to paragraphs 69 to 76 of Ind AS 1 to specify the requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments clarify:
- What is meant by a right to defer settlement
- That a right to defer must exist at the end of the reporting period
- That classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will exercise its deferral right
- That only if an embedded derivative in a convertible liability is itself an equity instrument would the terms of a liability not impact its classification
In addition, a requirement has been introduced to require disclosure when a liability arising from a loan agreement is classified as non-current and the entity's right to defer settlement is contingent on compliance with future covenants within twelve months.
If there is a breach of a material covenant of a long term loan arrangement on or before the end of the reporting period, resulting in the liability becoming payable on demand as at the reporting date, and the lender agrees after the reporting period but before the financial statements are approved for issue not to demand repayment for at least 12 months as a consequence of the breach, this shall be treated as an adjusting event. Accordingly, the entity is not required to classify the liability as current.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1st April 2025 retrospectively in accordance with Ind AS 8.
c. Amendments to Ind AS 7 and Ind AS 107 – Supplier Finance Arrangements
In August 2025, the MCA notified amendments to Ind AS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 107 Financial Instruments: Disclosures to clarify the characteristics of supplier finance arrangements and require additional disclosure of such arrangements. The disclosure requirements in the amendments are intended to assist users of financial statements in understanding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on an entity's liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. As a result of implementing the amendments, the Company has provided additional disclosures about its supplier finance arrangement.

Note 40 - Financial Risk Management
The Company's activities expose to limited financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company's primary focus is to foresee the unpredictability of financial markets and seek to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings or fair values or future cash flows that may result from a change in the price of a financial instrument.
The company is exposed to market risk primarily related to foreign exchange rate risk (currency risk), Interest rate risk and the market value of its investments.
Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk of default on its obligation by the counterparty resulting in a financial loss. It principally arises from the Company's Trade Receivables, Retention Receivables, Advances and deposit(s) made.
| Particulars | As at March 31, 2026 | As at March 31, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Assets: | ||
| Trade Receivables | 88,625.13 | 67,677.46 |

Trade Receivables
The company has outstanding trade receivables amounting to Rs.88,625 Lakhs as at March 31,2026 and Rs. 67,677 as at March 31, 2025. Trade receivables are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers. Company's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The company is not exposed to concentration of credit risk to any one single customer. Default on account of Trade Receivables happens when the counterparty fails to make contractual payment when they fall due.
Expected Credit Loss (ECL) on Trade Receivables:
The Company applies the simplified approach prescribed under Ind AS 109 for recognition of Expected Credit Loss ("ECL") on trade receivables and contract assets.

While evaluating the recoverability of receivables, management considers factors including, but not limited to:
- Ageing of receivables and historical payment trends;
- Creditworthiness and financial position of the customer;
- Past collection experience with the customer;
- Existence of disputes, claims, litigations or contractual issues;
- Subsequent receipts after the reporting date;
- Industry and economic conditions impacting the customer;
- Availability of collateral, security deposits, bank guarantees or other credit enhancements; and
- Any other information indicating a significant increase in credit risk or impairment.
Receivables assessed as fully recoverable are not provided for. Specific provisions are created against receivables where, based on management's assessment, there exists an expectation of credit loss. The amount of provision represents management's best estimate of the expected shortfall in contractual cash flows considering all reasonable and supportable information available at the reporting date.
The Company reviews the adequacy of the impairment allowance at each reporting date and adjusts the provision based on changes in facts, circumstances and expectations of recovery. Actual credit losses may differ from these estimates.
Receivables considered irrecoverable are written off upon completion of the Company's internal recovery assessment and approval process.

Liquidity Risk
Our liquidity needs are monitored based on the monthly and yearly projections. The company's principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, Term loan from Banks, and Contribution in the form of share capital.
We manage our liquidity needs by continuously monitoring cash inflows and by maintaining adequate cash and cash equivalents. Net cash requirements are compared to available cash in order to determine any shortfalls.
Short term liquidity requirements consist mainly of sundry creditors, expense payable, employee dues, repayment of loans and retention & deposits arising during the normal course of business as of each reporting date. We maintain a sufficient balance in cash and cash equivalents to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
We assess long term liquidity requirements on a periodical basis and manage them through internal accruals. Our non-current liabilities include Unsecured Loans from Promoters, Term Loans from Banks, Retentions & deposits.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates does not have material impact on the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and equity, where any transaction references more than one currency or where assets / liabilities are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective entities. The company evaluates the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations by assessing its exposure to exchange rate risks and the impact of which is found to be immaterial.
For fair value hedges relating to items carried at amortised cost, any adjustment to carrying value is amortised through profit or loss over the remaining term of the hedge using the EIR method. The EIR amortisation may begin as soon as an adjustment exists and no later than when the hedged item ceases to be adjusted for changes in its fair value attributable to the risk being hedged.
If the hedged item is derecognised, the unamortised fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
When an unrecognised firm commitment is designated as a hedged item, the subsequent cumulative change in the fair value of the firm commitment attributable to the hedged risk is recognised as an asset or liability with a corresponding gain or loss recognised in profit or loss.

Note 47 - Discontinuing operation
Power trading segment has not been a significant profit driver for Refex, with low volumes, lower margins, high compliance costs, and limited strategic fit with our core logistics and energy infrastructure strengths. Hence the Board on its meeting held on August 12, 2025, has approved the discontinuation of Power-Trading business, subject to all statutory and Regulatory approvals. This process includes Surrendering the trading license, settling all statutory obligations, and transparently communicating the rationale for exiting to key stakeholders. As a result, the activity qualifies as a discontinued operation under Ind AS 105. Accordingly, the Company has disclosed the profit from discontinuing operations separately from the profit from continuing operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
Further, The Board of Directors approved the discontinuation of the Refrigerant Gases business segment at its meeting held on January 21, 2026. The segment accounted for approximately 2.50% of the Company's total revenue and was impacted by operational and financial challenges due to heightened competition and pricing pressures. The discontinuation is intended to enable better allocation of management focus and capital towards the Company's core, higher-growth businesses, thereby improving capital efficiency and long-term value creation. As a result, the activity qualifies as a discontinued operation under Ind AS 105. Accordingly, the Company has disclosed the profit from discontinuing operations separately from the profit from continuing operations in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
"The Board of Directors of the Company, at its meeting held on September 22, 2025, had approved the draft Composite Scheme of Amalgamation and Arrangement amongst Refex Green Mobility Limited ("Transferor Company" or "RGML"), Refex Industries Limited ("Transferee Company" or "Demerged Company" or "RIL") and Refex Mobility Limited ("Resulting Company" or "RML") and their respective shareholders and creditors, under Sections 230 to 232 and other applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 read with the rules framed thereunder ("Scheme"), subject to receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, as may be applicable.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102(1) OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013 AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AS REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INDIA (LISTING OBLIGATIONS AND DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS) REGULATIONS, 2015 AND CIRCULARS ISSUED THEREUNDER
The following explanatory statement, as required under Section 102 of the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended from time to time ('Listing Regulations') sets out all material facts relating to the special business(es) to be dealt at the 24th Annual General Meeting as mentioned under Item No. 5 of the accompanying Notice dated June 30,2026.
Item No. 5: Variation in utilization of proceeds amounting to ₹19.07 crore out of the preferential issue aggregating to ₹219.69 crore approved by the shareholders in their extra-ordinary general meeting held on March 27, 2024
Pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 read with applicable rules, the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 and the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, any variation in the objects of the issue requires the approval of shareholders by way of a special resolution on the recommendation of the Board.
The Company had raised an aggregate amount of ₹219.69 crore through a preferential issue of equity shares and warrants, approved by the members at the extraordinary general meeting held on March 27, 2024.
Pursuant thereto, 50,00,000 equity shares were allotted on March 28, 2024 and 1,75,75,000 warrants were allotted on April 11, 2024, both at an issue price of ₹125/- apiece, which were subsequently, converted into equity shares on July 22, 2024 (50,00,000) and October 03, 2025 (75,75,000).
Out of the total proceeds, a portion remains unutilized. Based on the current operational requirements and business priorities, the management has reviewed the utilisation plan and proposes to reallocate the unutilized amount of ₹19.07 crore originally earmarked for Capital Expenditure towards Working Capital Requirements.
The proposed variation is necessitated as the capital expenditure originally envisaged is no longer required to the extent estimated, whereas the Company's working capital requirements have increased owing to business operations.
The proposed reallocation is expected to enable more efficient deployment of the unutilized funds and is considered to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
The proposed variation relates only to the unutilized proceeds of the preferential issue and does not affect the amounts already utilized towards the approved objects.
