Key Audit Matters
Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance inour audit of the standalone financial statement for the current period. These matters were addressedin the context of our audit of standalone financial statement as a whole, and in forming our opinionthereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have not determined anymatters as Key audit matters to be communicated in our reports.

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. Theother information comprises the information included in the Board's Report including Annexure to theBoard Report, Business Responsibility Report but does not include the standalone financial statementsand our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on standalone financial statements does not cover theother information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read theother information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistentwith the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appearsto be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein,we are required to report the matter and take necessary actions, as applicable under relevant laws andregulations. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of theCompanies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of the financial statements that give atrue and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the company inaccordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India including the accountingstandards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance ofadequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assetsof the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection andapplication of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonableand prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, thatwere operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of accounting records, relevantto the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and arefree from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is responsible for assessing theCompany's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to goingconcern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statementsas a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'sreport that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not aguarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatementwhen it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individuallyor in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of userstaken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements,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 ofnot 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 financial controls relevant to the audit in order to designaudit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act,we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequateinternal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accountingand, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related toevents or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as agoing concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to drawattention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statementsor, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on theaudit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events orconditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlyingtransactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the plannedscope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies ininternal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevantethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships andother matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, wedetermine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of thecurrent period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor'sreport unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rarecircumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because theadverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interestbenefits of such communication.
