Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Also, the parent company has confirmed its intention to continue to provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the management continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements that do not include any adjustments that would result from the basis of preparation being inappropriate.”

Year-on-year

FY2024 → FY2025 · period ending 2025-03-31 vs 2024-03-31

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
