(the “Company”) that are based on management’s current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions about the Company’s business. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “sees,” “estimates” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Background
Xenous Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on May 20, 1980 as Dayne Weiss and Associates, Inc. under the laws of the State of Utah.
On January 4, 1990, the Company acquired Concept Technologies, Inc. (CTI) which then became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company . CTI was dissolved in January 1991 and the name of Company was changed to Concept Technologies, Inc.
On December 19, 2014, the Company completed a change of domiciliary merger and moved the Company’s state of incorporation to Nevada changing the name to Concept Holding Corporation.
On July 21, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company elected to file Articles of Merger with the Nevada SOS whereby it would enter into a statutory merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, M101 Corp., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 92A.200, et seq. The effect of such merger is that the Company is the surviving entity and changed its name to “M101 Corp.” The merger took effect on August 14, 2017. The Company currently has no business operations.
On November 2, 2019, a majority of shareholders approved a resolution to change the name of the Company to Xenous Holdings, Inc.. On November 19, 2019, the Company received notice that the Secretary of State of Nevada accepted the Company’s Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Xenous Holdings, Inc.
Since its merger on August 14, 2017, the Company had no business operations.
Description of Business
We are currently seeking and investigating potential assets, property or businesses to acquire. We currently have no material business operations. Our plan of operation for the next 12 months is to: (i) consider guidelines of industries in which we may have an interest; (ii) adopt a business plan regarding engaging in the business of any selected industry; and (iii) to commence such operations through funding and/or the acquisition of a “going concern” engaged in any industry selected. We are unable to predict the time as to when and if we may actually participate in any specific business endeavor, and will be unable to do so until we determine any particular industry in which we may engage.
We are not currently engaged in any substantive business activity except the search for potential assets, property or businesses to acquire, and we have no current plans to engage in any other activity in the foreseeable future unless and until we complete any such acquisition. In our present form, we are deemed to be a vehicle to acquire or merge with a business or company. We do not intend to restrict our search for business opportunities to any particular business or industry, and the areas in which we will seek out business opportunities or acquisitions, reorganizations or mergers may include all lawful businesses. We recognize that the number of suitable potential business ventures that may be available to us may be extremely limited, and may be restricted as to acquisitions, reorganizations and mergers with businesses or entities that desire to avoid what such entities may deem to be the adverse factors related to an initial public offering (“IPO”) as a method of going public. The most prevalent of these factors include substantial time requirements, legal and accounting costs, the inability to obtain an underwriter who is willing to publicly offer and sell shares, the lack of or the inability to obtain the required financial statements for such an undertaking, state limitations on the amount of dilution to public investors in comparison to the stockholders of any such entities, along with other conditions or requirements imposed by various federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations and federal and state agencies that implement such laws, rules and regulations.
Any target acquisition or merger candidate will become subject to the same reporting requirements as the Company following finalization of an acquisition or merger. Thus, in the event the Company successfully completes the acquisition of or merger with an operating business, that business must provide audited financial statements for at least the two most recent fiscal years or, in the event it has been in business for less than two years, audited financial statements will be required from the period of inception. This could limit the Company’s potential target business opportunities due to the fact that many private businesses either do not have audited financial statements or are unable to produce audited statements without undo time and expense. See the caption “Regulations” hereinafter.
Since the termination of its prior business, Xenous has had no operations other than seeking an acquisition or merger to bring an operating entity into the Company. The Company’s officers and directors do not propose to restrict their search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and may, therefore, engage in essentially any business in any industry. The Company has unrestricted discretion in seeking and participating in a business opportunity, subject to the availability of such opportunities, economic conditions, and other factors.
| 4 |
| Table of Contents |
The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, the Company has only limited resources and may find it difficult to locate good opportunities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to Xenous and its stockholders. The Company’s officers and directors will select any potential business opportunity based on their business judgment.
The Company is not currently conducting any business, nor has it conducted any business for several years. Therefore, it does not possess products or services, distribution methods, competitive business positions, or major customers. The Company does not possess any unexpired patents or trademarks. The Company does not have any employees.
Amendments to Form 8-K by the SEC regarding shell companies and transactions with shell companies that require the filing of all information about an acquired company that would have been required to have been filed had any such company filed a Form 10 with the SEC, along with required audited, interim and pro forma financial statements, within four business days of the closing of any such transaction (Item 5.01(a)(8) of Form 8-K); and the amendments to Rule 144 adopted by the SEC, effective on February 15, 2008, limit the resale of most securities of shell companies until one year after the filing of such information, may eliminate many of the perceived advantages of these types of going public transactions. These types of transactions are customarily referred to as “reverse” reorganizations or mergers in which the acquired company’s shareholders become controlling shareholders in the acquiring company and the acquiring company becomes the successor to the business operations of the acquired company. Regulations governing shell companies also deny the use of Form S-8 for the registration of securities and limit the use of this Form to a reorganized “shell company” until the expiration of 60 days from when any such entity is no longer considered to be a shell company. This prohibition could further restrict opportunities for us to acquire companies that may already have stock option plans in place that cover numerous employees. In such instances, there may be no exemption from registration for the issuance of securities in any business combination to these employees, thereby necessitating the filing of a registration statement with the SEC to complete any such reorganization, and incurring the time and expense that are normally avoided by reverse reorganizations or mergers.
Amendments to Rule 144, adopted by the SEC and effective on February 15, 2008, codify the SEC’s prior position limiting the tradability of certain securities of shell companies, including those issued by us in any acquisition, reorganization or merger, and further limit the tradability of additional securities of shell companies; these proposals will further restrict the availability of opportunities for us to acquire any business or enterprise that desire to utilize us as a means of going public. Any of these types of transactions, regardless of the particular prospect, would require us to issue a substantial number of shares of our common stock and result in substantial dilution to current shareholders.
Our management intends to consider a number of factors prior to making any decision as to whether to participate in any specific business endeavor, none of which may be determinative or provide any assurance of success. These may include, but will not be limited to, as applicable, an analysis of the quality of the particular business or entity’s management and personnel; the anticipated acceptability of any new products or marketing concepts that any such business or company may have; the merits of any such business’ or company’s technological changes; the present financial condition, projected growth potential and available technical, financial and managerial resources of any such business or company; working capital, history of operations and future prospects; the nature of present and expected competition; the quality and experience of any such business’ or company’s management services and the depth of management; the business’ or the company’s potential for further research, development or exploration; risk factors specifically related to the business’ or company’s operations; the potential for growth, expansion and profit of the business or company; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of the company’s or the business’ products, services, trademarks and name identification; and numerous other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to properly or accurately quantify or analyze, let alone describe or identify, without referring to specific objective criteria of an identified business or company.
Regardless, the results of operations of any specific entity may not necessarily be indicative of what may occur in the future, by reason of changing market strategies, plant or product expansion, changes in product emphasis, future management personnel and changes in innumerable other factors. Further, in the case of a new business venture or one that is in a research and development mode, the risks will be substantial, and there will be no objective criteria to examine the effectiveness or the abilities of its management or its business objectives. Also, a firm market for its products or services may yet need to be established, and with no past track record, the profitability of any such entity will be unproven and cannot be predicted with any certainty.

| Table of Contents |
Our management will attempt to meet personally with management and key personnel of any entity providing any potential business opportunity afforded to us, visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis or verification of information provided and gathered, check references of management and key personnel and conduct other reasonably prudent measures calculated to ensure a reasonably thorough review of any particular business opportunity; however, due to time constraints of management, these activities may be limited.
We are unable to predict the time as to when and if we may actually participate in any specific business endeavor. We anticipate that proposed business ventures will be made available to us through personal contacts of directors, executive officers and principal stockholders, professional advisors, broker dealers in securities, venture capital personnel and others who may present unsolicited proposals. In certain cases, we may agree to pay a finder’s fee or to otherwise compensate the persons who submit a potential business endeavor in which we eventually participate. Such persons may include our directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of our securities or their affiliates. In this event, such fees may become a factor in negotiations regarding any potential venture and, accordingly, may present a conflict of interest for such individuals.
Although we currently have no plans to do so, depending on the nature and extent of services rendered, we may compensate members of management in the future for services that they may perform for us. Because we currently have extremely limited resources, and we are unlikely to have any significant resources until we have determined a business or enterprise to engage in or have completed a reorganization, merger or acquisition, management expects that any such compensation would take the form of an issuance of shares of our common stock to these persons; this would have the effect of further diluting the holdings of our other stockholders. There are presently no preliminary agreements or understandings between us and members of our management respecting such compensation. Any shares issued to members of our management would be required to be resold under an effective registration statement filed with the SEC or 12 months after we file the “Form 10 Information” about the acquired company with the SEC as now required by Form 8-K. These provisions could further inhibit our ability to complete the acquisition of any business or complete any merger or reorganization with another entity, where finders or others who may be subject to these resale limitations refuse to provide us with any introductions or to close any such transactions unless they are paid requested fees in cash or unless we agree to file a registration statement with the SEC that includes any shares that are to be issued to them, at no cost to them. These expenses could limit potential acquisition candidates, especially those in need of cash resources, and could affect the number of shares that our stockholders retain following any such transaction, by reason of the increased expense.
Substantial fees are also often paid in connection with the completion of all types of acquisitions, reorganizations or mergers, ranging from a small amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars or more. These fees are usually divided among consultants, brokers and selling shareholders, after deduction of legal, accounting and other related expenses, and it is not unusual for a portion of these fees to be paid to members of management or to principal stockholders as consideration for their agreement to retire a portion of their shares of our common stock that are owned by them or to provide an indemnification for all of our prior liabilities. Management may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of all or any portion of their shares of common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed reorganization, merger or acquisition. It is not anticipated that any such opportunity will be afforded to other stockholders or that such other stockholders will be afforded the opportunity to approve or consent to any particular stock buy-out transaction. In the event that any such fees are paid or shares are purchased, these requirements may become a factor in negotiations regarding any potential acquisition or merger by us and, accordingly, may also present a conflict of interest for such individuals. We have no definitive arrangements or understandings respecting any of these types of fees or opportunities. Any of these types of fees that are paid in shares of our common stock will also be subject to the resale limitations embodied in the recent amendments to Rule 144.
Our directors and executive officers are evaluating potential merger targets, but as of the date of this report no definitive plans for a merger are in force.

Recent Developments
On November 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Dadvance Agarwood Alpha Sdn Bhd (“Dadvance”), a company primarily engaged in the plantations, inoculations, cultivations, manufacturing, marketing, trading and conducting research and development of agricultural commodities in relation to Aquilaria trees and its related products with their headquarter based in Malaysia. The Company will be conducting full financial and legal due diligence of Dadvance and, if the due diligence is satisfactory, negotiate the definite acquisition agreement with Dadvance and its shareholders. The Board of Directors will not proceed with the acquisition unless an independent fairness opinion regarding fairness of the acquisition is obtained. The Company engaged YYC Advisors, a Malaysian accounting and financial advisory to conduct independent valuation on the targeted Malaysia planation company. The Company engaged Eastnaga Capital Fund Ltd as an advisor and manager for corporate strategy.
On December, 1 2022, Messrs. YYC has completed their valuation on Dadvance, with an estimated valuation of approximately $20 million (the “Valuation Report”) using the discounted cash flow valuation method. Dadvance is currently managing a 150 acres land located in Pahang, Malaysia for the planting, inoculating and harvesting of approximately 101,000 Aquilaria trees. The Valuation Report also estimated that the valuation will be increased to approximately $76 million within the next 3 to 4 years upon the completion of inoculation and harvesting of the Aquilaria trees. Building upon the favorable valuation provided by Messrs. YYC, the Company is actively pursuing the acquisition of Dadvance. Since our initial announcement in November 2022, Dadvance has made substantial strides, propelled by the execution of multiple agreements. Notably, on February 2, 2023, Dadvance solidified an exclusive distribution agreement with Tropical Extracts Sdn. Bhd. ("Tropical"), by appointing them as the exclusive distributor and proficient marketing agent for Dadvance's products in the European Market.
Concurrently, Dadvance has proactively initiated discussions with several reputable entities from the Middle East and the Gulf Region to facilitate the distribution and supply of their coveted Agarwood Oil Extracts within the region wherein the discerning industry leaders have conducted meticulous sample testing on Dadvance's oil products, duly recognizing and accepting their impeccable quality. Ongoing negotiations are currently underway to establish a mutually beneficial agreement to supply certain products from Dadvance's product portfolio.
With the growing demand serving as a catalyst, Dadvance has astutely placed an order for an estimated 100 units of distillers from certain suppliers to be delivered in batches. This strategic move is specifically tailored to fulfill the escalating orders emanating from both the European and Middle Eastern markets, allowing Dadvance to effectively meet the evolving needs of its valued clientele.
In pursuit of additional validation, Dadvance has diligently submitted its oil for comprehensive lab testing at the esteemed Bioaromatic Research Centre of Universiti Malaysia Pahang and are thrilled to announce that the ensuing report, dated February 17, 2023, has certified Dadvance's oil an esteemed grade of A+ denoting premium high quality. This resounding certification is enthusiastically welcomed by our Group, as it solidifies Dadvance's reputation for delivering exceptional product excellence within the lucrative Middle East market. Through unwavering commitment and meticulous execution, Dadvance is poised to redefine the Agarwood industry, spearheading a paradigm shift in the perception of quality and innovation.
Currently, the negotiation for the acquisition terms of Dadvance is ongoing.
The Company plans to finance the transaction with (i) the capital which will be raised from a share issuance to an investor; or (ii) a share issuance to the target company.
In February 2023, the Company previously announced that it was conducting a full financial and legal due diligence of a US-based company involving renewable energies which have been awarded a solar farm project backed by the US Government. However, the negotiations on the acquisition terms were unsuccessful.

Competitive Business Conditions and Small or Reporting Company’s Competitive Position in the Industry and Methods of Competition
Our management believes that there are a large number of shell companies engaged in endeavors similar to those engaged in by us; many of these companies have substantial current assets and cash reserves. Competitors also include thousands of other publicly-held companies whose business operations have proven unsuccessful, and whose only viable business opportunity is that of providing a publicly-held vehicle through which a private entity may have access to the public capital markets via a reverse reorganization or merger. There is no reasonable way to assess and predict our competitive position or that of any other entity in these endeavors; however, we, having limited assets and no cash reserves, will no doubt be at a competitive disadvantage in competing with entities that have significant cash resources and have recent operating histories.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and Names of Principal Suppliers
None.
Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers
None.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts, including Duration
None.
Need for any Governmental Approval of Principal Products or Services
Since we currently have no business operations and produce no products nor provide any services, we are not presently subject to any governmental regulation in this regard. However, in the event that we complete a reorganization, merger or acquisition transaction with an entity that is engaged in business operations or provides products or services, we will become subject to all governmental approval requirements to which the reorganized, merged or acquired entity is subject or may become subject.
Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on the Business
Smaller Reporting Company
We are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and we are subject to the disclosure requirements of Regulation S-K of the SEC, as a “smaller reporting company.” That designation will relieve us of some of the informational requirements of Regulation S-K.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act
We are also subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act created a strong and independent accounting oversight board to oversee the conduct of auditors of public companies and strengthens auditor independence. It also requires steps to enhance the direct responsibility of senior members of management for financial reporting and for the quality of financial disclosures made by public companies; establishes clear statutory rules to limit, and to expose to public view, possible conflicts of interest affecting securities analysts; creates guidelines for audit committee members’ appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of public companies’ auditors; management assessment of our internal controls; prohibits certain insider trading during pension fund blackout periods; requires companies and auditors to evaluate internal controls and procedures; and establishes a federal crime of securities fraud, among other provisions. Compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act will substantially increase our legal and accounting costs.

Exchange Act Reporting Requirements
Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act requires all companies with securities registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding proxy solicitations, as outlined in Regulation 14A. Matters submitted to our stockholders at a special or annual meeting thereof or pursuant to a written consent will require us to provide our stockholders with the information outlined in Schedules 14A or 14C of Regulation 14; preliminary copies of this information must be submitted to the SEC at least 10 days prior to the date that definitive copies of this information are forwarded to the our stockholders.
We are required to file annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q with the Securities Exchange Commission on a regular basis, and are required to timely disclose certain material events (e.g., changes in corporate control; acquisitions or dispositions of a significant amount of assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and bankruptcy) in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Research and Development Costs During the Last Two Fiscal Years
None.
Cost and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws
We do not believe that our current or intended business operations are subject to any material environmental laws, rules or regulations that would have an adverse material effect on our business operations or financial condition or result in a material compliance cost; however, we will become subject to all such governmental requirements to which the reorganized, merged or acquired entity is subject or may become subject.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Market Information
Xenous Holdings, Inc.’s Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Sheets under the symbol “XITO.”
Xenous Holdings, Inc. has previously issued shares of common stock that constitute restricted securities as that term is defined in Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act. Subject to certain restrictions, such securities may generally be sold in limited amounts under Rule 144. As of March 31, 2023, Xenous Holdings, Inc. had 760,250,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, all of which were issued more than twelve months ago. All of these shares would generally be available for resale. Currently, Rule 144 would not be available for 707,050,000 of those shares until at least one year after a merger with an operating company or the creation of business operations by the Company and the filing of an 8-K containing certain information required in a Form 10 filing. As such timing of the availability of resale exemptions for these shares is unknown and currently they are not available for resale under Rule 144. When the shares potentially become available for resale, there could be a depressive effect of any market that may develop for the Company’s common stock given the amount of shares that would be available for resale versus the number currently available.
There is currently no established trading market for shares of our common stock. Management does not expect any viable market to develop in our common stock unless and until we complete an acquisition or merger. In any event, no assurance can be given that any market for our common stock will develop or be maintained.
For any market that develops for our common stock, the sale of “restricted securities” (common stock) pursuant to Rule 144 of the SEC by members of management or any other person to whom any such securities may be issued in the future may have a substantial adverse impact on any such public market. For information regarding the requirements of resales under Rule 144, see the heading “Rule 144” below.
Holders
We currently have 721 stockholders, not including an indeterminate number who may hold shares in “street name.”
Dividends
We have not declared any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and do not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future. Our future dividend policy cannot be ascertained with any certainty, and if and until we complete any acquisition, reorganization or merger, no such policy will be formulated. There are no material restrictions limiting, or that are likely to limit, our ability to pay dividends on our securities.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
None.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities
Xenous did not sell shares of its common stock or preferred stock during the year ended March 31, 2023, or subsequently through the date of this filing.
Use of Proceeds of Registered Securities
There were no proceeds received during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2032 from the sale of registered securities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
When used in this Annual Report, the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27a of the Securities Act and Section 21e of the Exchange Act regarding events, conditions, and financial trends that may affect our future plans of operations, business strategy, operating results, and financial position. Persons reviewing this Annual Report are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those included within the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors are discussed further below under “Trends and Uncertainties,” and also include general economic factors and conditions that may directly or indirectly impact our financial condition or results of operations.
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operation for the next 12 months is to: (i) consider guidelines of industries in which we may have an interest; (ii) adopt a business plan regarding engaging in the business of any selected industry; and (iii) to commence such operations through funding and/or the acquisition of a “going concern” engaged in any industry selected.
During the next 12 months, our only foreseeable cash requirements will relate to maintaining our good standing or the payment of expenses associated with legal fees, accounting fees and reviewing or investigating any potential business venture, which may be advanced by management or principal stockholders as loans to us. Because we have not determined any business or industry in which our operations will be commenced, and we have not identified any prospective venture as of the date of this Annual Report, it is impossible to predict the amount of any such loan. Any such loan will be on terms no less favorable to us than would be available from a commercial lender in an arm’s length transaction. No advance or loan from any affiliate will be required to be repaid as a condition to any agreement with future acquisition partners.

We had no operations during the year ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, nor do we have operations as of the date of this filing. We had a net loss of $57,718 and $64,714 for the year ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in professional fees incurred during the year ended March 31, 2023. Professional fees were $57,188 and $63,990 for the year ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

| Table of Contents |
For the year ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, net cash from financing activities was $61,837 and $58,385 from advancement from Smartex Investment Ltd., the majority shareholder of the Company, respectively.
Going Concern
Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit issued in connection with the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2023, relative to our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company, which has not generated any revenues, has incurred net losses, has nominal assets and a stockholders’ deficit. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations, to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty
The Company is dependent on advances from its principal shareholders or other affiliated parties for continued funding. There are no commitments or guarantees from any third party to provide such funding nor is there any guarantee that the Company will be able to access the funding it requires to continue its operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Xenous Holdings, Inc.
Suite 20.03, Plaza 138, Jalan Ampang,
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 50450.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Xenous Holdings, Inc. (the ‘Company’) as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related statements of operations, statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, and statements of cash flows for the each of two years in the year ended of March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of two years in the year ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, for the year ended March 31, 2023 the Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical matters.

XENOUS HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to the Audited Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Xenous Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on May 20, 1980 as Dayne Weiss and Associates, Inc. under the laws of the State of Utah.
On December 19, 2014, the Company completed a change of domicile merger with Concept Holding Corp., a Nevada corporation, which became the surviving entity.
On July 21, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company elected to file Articles of Merger with the Nevada SOS whereby it would enter into a statutory merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, M101 Corp., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 92A.200, et seq. The effect of such merger is the Company is the surviving entity and changed its name to “M101 Corp.” The merger took effect on August 14, 2017.
On November 2, 2019, a majority of shareholders approved a resolution to change the name of the Company to Xenous Holdings, Inc. On November 19, 2019, the Company received notice that the Secretary of State of Nevada accepted the Company’s Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Xenous Holdings, Inc. The Company currently has no business operations.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States.
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with “GAAP,” which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
These tiers include:
Level 1: defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3: defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of accounts payable and debts. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.
| F-7 |
| Table of Contents |
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
The Company has adopted ASC Topic 260, ”Earnings per Share,”(“EPS”) which requires presentation of basic EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities.
Related Parties
We follow ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. (see Note 4).
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. Pursuant to ASC 740 deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax expense for the period, if any, and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
ASC 740 also provides criteria for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. Under ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain tax position on the income tax return may only be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. At March 31, 2023, there were no unrecognized tax benefits. (see Note 6)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. The amendments in this Update address those stakeholders’ concerns by providing an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. For those entities, the targeted transition relief will increase comparability of financial statement information by providing an option to align measurement methodologies for similar financial assets. Furthermore, the targeted transition relief also may reduce the costs for some entities to comply with the amendments in Update 2016-13 while still providing financial statement users with decision-useful information. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which to update the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies applying for credit losses, leases, and hedging standard. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2023 as the Company is qualified as a smaller reporting company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2019-05 may have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The Company has not yet generated any revenue since its inception and has an operating loss and net loss of $
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate sufficient revenues in the future and in our ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Annual Report were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Our management, consisting of officers and directors, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of the President and Secretary/Treasurer, concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Security and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting.
