Qualified Opinion
We have audited the accompanying statement of standalone financial results of Sahara One Media And
Entertainment Limited ('the Company') for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2026 attached herewith
(Statement), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing
Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended (the "Listing Regulation").
Except the effects of matters described in bosis lor quolified opinion porograph below, in our opinion and to the
best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the statement:
a) is presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations; and
b) give a true and fair view in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in
applicable Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013(the "Act")
and other accounting principles generally accepted in lndia of the net Loss and total comprehensive
incomeandotherfinancial informationoftheCompanyforthethreemonthsandyearendedMarch 31,

Basisfor Qualified Opinion
a) Attention is invited to the matter of deposit of Rupees 694,027.88 Thousand to Sahara-SEBI Refund
account in the matter of dispute in respect of repayment of Optionally Fully Convertible Debentures
(OFCDs) by two group companies, namely M/s Sahara lndia Real Corporation Limited & Sahara Housing
lnvestment Corporation Limited with Security and Exchange Board of lndia (SEBI).The Honourable
Supreme Court of lndia vide its order dated 21-11-2013 had directed that Sahara Group of Companies
shall not part with movable and immovable properties and accordingly'SEBI' has seized the company's
Fixed Deposit and Non-Current lnvestment. Subsequent to this, Hon'ble Supreme Court vide it's order
dated 4th June, 2014 has directed to defreeze the Fixed Deposit account of the company subject to
condition that total proceeds would be transferred to special account opened by the 'SEBI'. However,
the matter is pending at Honourable Supreme Court of lndia; we are unable to comment on the
consequential impact, if any, of the same on the financial result of the company.
b) Material uncertainty over going concern: The company has prepared its financial statements on a going
concern basis, notwithstanding the fact that the company does not have sufficient fund to pay its
creditors, recovery from debtors is pending since long, advances given for movie production has stuck
with the parties as company is unable to invest further fund and operational performance of the
company is comparatively low in comparison to its peers. These events cast significant doubt on the
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial results do not adequately disclose
these matters.
Further, due to certain non-compliance of regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and
Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, the Securities and Exchange Board of lndia (SEBI) has
initiated penal actions as per circular no. SEBI/HO/CFOICMD/CIRIPl2020lL2 dated January 22, 2020
(SEBI SOP Circular) and has levied fines and the trading of the shares of the company has been suspended
since long and in further action the SEBI may freeze Demat account of Promoters.
c) Attention is invited to long pending content advances of Rupees 1,91,600 Thousand given to
producersfilm houses/actors for acquisition/development Film content/rights. There is substantial
delay in completion of the projects. Company's ability to m aterialise content advances into the film rights
for exploitation is dependent on its funding the balance commitment agreed under the contracts. ln view
of the above and financial position of the company, recoverability of content advance or its
materialization into film rights is doubtful. However as per agreemen! the

pay the entire amount and in case of default, his entire IPR and negative rights of the movie will be
transferred to the company.
d) The bank balance confirmation of bank accounts having book balance of Rupees 2l2g.zlThousand as
on 31.-03-2026 could not be obtained as these accounts are in dormant status. Had balance confirmations
been received, there may have been additional adjustments required to the financial result which are
not determinable, at this stage.
e) The company is carrying investment in subsidiary at cost. The carrying amount of the investment in the
subsidiary exceeds the carrying amount ofthe subsidiary's net assets including associated goodwill in the
consolidated financial statements as on date. This situation triggers an impairment review but company
has not tested its investment in subsidiaryfor impairment. Had impairment review done bythe company,
the loss of the company would have been higher than reported loss and value of investment would have
been lower to the extent of such impairment.
The licence period of the media contents television rights given in earlier years to related party customer
has expired but the company has not entered any new agreem ent while the contents are still being used
by the customer. The management has replied that company is in talks with the party and fresh
agreement with the party will be entered soon. Had this agreement was made; the revenue of the
company would have been higher than the reported value.

Section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's

refunded the amount pertains to the company but company has neither created any recognized gratuity
