We conducted our audit of the Standalone financial statementsin accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified underSection 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under thoseStandards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilityfor the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements sectionof our report. We are independent of the Company inaccordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute ofChartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the ethicalrequirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalonefinancial statements under the provisions of the Act and theRules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethicalresponsibilities in accordance with these requirements andthe ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidenceobtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis forour audit opinion on the Standalone financial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professionaljudgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Standalonefinancial statements of the current period. These matters wereaddressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financialstatements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, andwe do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We havedetermined that there are no key audit matters to communicatein our report.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the otherinformation. The other information comprises the Directors’Report including Annexures to the Directors’ Report but does notinclude the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor’sreport thereon. The other information is expected to be madeavailable to us after the date of this auditor's report.
Our opinion on the Standalone financial statements does notcover the other information and we do not express any form ofassurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit ofthe Standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to readthe other information identified above when it becomes availableand, in doing so, consider whether the other information ismaterially inconsistent with the Standalone financial statements,or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit orotherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the other Information, if we conclude that there isa material misstatement therein, we are required to communicatethe matter to those charged with governance and to complywith the relevant applicable requirements of the SA 720 ‘TheAuditor’s responsibilities Relating to Other Information.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the mattersstated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparationof these Standalone financial statements that give a true andfair view of the financial position, financial performance, andcash flows of the Company in accordance with the AccountingStandards and other accounting principles generally accepted inIndia. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequateaccounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Actfor safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventingand detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection andapplication of appropriate accounting policies; makingjudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; anddesign, implementation and maintenance of adequate internalfinancial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuringthe accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Standalonefinancial statement that give a true and fair view and are freefrom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone financial statements, managementis responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continueas a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related togoing concern and using the going concern basis of accountingunless management either intends to liquidate the Company orto cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing theCompany’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance aboutwhether the Standalone financial statements as whole are freefrom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and toissue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonableassurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee thatan audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detecta material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arisefrom fraud or error and are considered material if, individuallyor in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis ofthese Standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exerciseprofessional judgment and maintain professional scepticismthroughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement ofthe Standalone financial statements, whether due to fraudor error, design and perform audit procedures responsiveto those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficientand appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Therisk of not detecting a material misstatement resultingfrom fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, asfraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal financial controlrelevant to the audit in order to design audit proceduresthat are appropriate in the circumstances. UnderSection 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the Company hasadequate internal financial controls system in place and theoperating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies usedand the reasonableness of accounting estimates andrelated disclosures made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use ofthe going concern basis of accounting and, based on theaudit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertaintyexists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertaintyexists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’sreport to the related disclosures in the Standalone financialstatements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, tomodify our opin ion. Our conclusions are based on th eaudit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’sreport. However, future events or conditions may cause theCompany to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and contentof the Standalone financial statements, including thedisclosures, and whether the Standalone financialstatements represent the underlying transactions andevents in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We have communicated with those charged with governanceregarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timingof the audit and significant audit findings, including any significantdeficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We have also provided those charged with governance witha statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicatewith them all relationships and other matters that may reasonablybe thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged withgovernance, we determine those matters that were of mostsignificance in the audit of the Standalone Financial Statementsof the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law orregulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a mattershould not be communicated in our report because the adverseconsequences of doing so would reasonably be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
