The stock traded within a day&#x27;s range of \u20b91,240.80 and \u20b91,302.90 after opening slightly lower at \u20b91,258.50 compared to its previous close of \u20b91,263.00.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wt-copy\">The broader market demonstrated positive momentum as the Nifty advanced 1.68%. However, CDSL moved lower, reflecting a divergence from the broader index trend during the trading session.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wt-copy\">Recent developments surrounding the company include the reporting of its financial results for the quarter and half year ended September 30, 2026, alongside recent disclosures regarding a regulatory penalty of \u20b91 crore imposed by SEBI on October 30, 2026, relating to operations and IT observations from an inspection for fiscal 2023-24. While these updates provide broader fundamental and compliance context, no single catalyst was explicitly confirmed to have driven today&#x27;s price movement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wt-copy\">26.77 lakh shares traded by 2 November 2026 \u00b7 03:30 PM IST. This compares with a 20-day average daily volume of 8.85 lakh shares (3.02 times). The five-day average daily volume was 10.26 lakh shares. Separately, the NSE report for 2 November 2026 showed 7.16 lakh shares delivered, representing 26.73% of that day\u2019s traded volume.

Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended (\u201cthe Act\u201d). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the \\\"Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results\\\" section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial results 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 opinion. Management's Responsibilities for the Standalone Financial Results The Statement has been prepared on the basis of the interim condensed standalone financial results. The Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of the Statement that gives a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive loss of the Company and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34 (Ind AS 34), 'Interim Financial Reporting\u2019prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the 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 Statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the Statement, the Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease .operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. ILUMBMI - Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process. S.R. Batliboi & Co. LLP, a Limited Liability Partnership with LLP Identity No. AAB-4294 Regd. Office : 22,Camac Street, Block 'B\\\\ 3rd Floor, Kolkata-700 016 S.R. BATUBOI &Co. LLPChartered Accountants Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Results Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Statement. 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 Statement, 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 but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the operating effectiveness of the company's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor\u2019s 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 Statement, including the disclosures, and whether the Statement represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings,including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
