Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professionaljudgment, were of most significance in our audit of thestandalone financial statements of the current year. Wehave determined that there are no key audit matters tocommunicate in our report.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for theother information. The other information comprises theinformation included in the Management Discussionand Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexures toBoard’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, CorporateGovernance and Shareholder’s Information, but does notinclude the consolidated financial statements, standalonefinancial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does notcover the other information and we do not express any formof assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, ourresponsibility is to read the other information and, in doingso, consider whether the other information is materiallyinconsistent with the standalone financial statements, orour knowledge obtained during the course of our audit orotherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based onthe work we have performed, we conclude that there is amaterial misstatement of this other information, we arerequired to report that fact. We have nothing to report in thisregard.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for thematters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect tothe preparation of these standalone financial statementsthat give a true and fair view of the financial position,financial performance, including other comprehensiveincome, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company inaccordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principlesgenerally accepted in India. This responsibility also includesmaintenance of adequate accounting records in accordancewith the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets ofthe Company and for preventing and detecting frauds andother irregularities; selection and application of appropriateaccounting policies; making judgments and estimates thatare reasonable and prudent; and design, implementationand maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracyand completeness of the accounting records, relevant tothe preparation and presentation of the standalone financialstatements that give a true and fair view and are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management isresponsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continueas a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relatedto going concern and using the going concern basis ofaccounting unless management either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations or has no realisticalternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing theCompany’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance aboutwhether the standalone financial statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraudor error and to issue an auditor’s report that includes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurancebut is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement when itexists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in aggregate, they couldreasonably be expected to influence the economic decisionsof users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exerciseprofessional judgment and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatementof the financial statements, whether due to fraud orerror, 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,as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentionalomissions, misrepresentations, or the override ofinternal 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 hasan adequate internal financial controls system in placeand the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policiesused and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by the management andBoard of Directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management andBoard of Directors use of the going concern basis ofaccounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained,whether a material uncertainty exists related to eventsor conditions that may cast significant doubt on theCompany’s ability to continue as a going concern. Ifwe conclude that a material uncertainty exists, weare required to draw attention in our auditor’s reportto the related disclosures in the standalone financialstatements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, tomodify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on theaudit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’sreport. However, future events or conditions may causethe Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and contentof the financial statements, including the disclosures,and whether the standalone financial statementsrepresent the underlying transactions and events in amanner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in thefinancial statements that, individually or in the aggregate,makes it probable that the economic decisions of areasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statementsmay be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality andqualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit workand in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluatethe effect of any identified misstatements in the financialstatements.
We communicate with those charged with governanceregarding, among other matters, the planned scope andtiming of the audit and significant audit findings, includingany significant deficiencies in internal control that weidentify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with astatement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicatewith them all relationships and other matters that mayreasonably be thought to bear on our independence, andwhere applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged withgovernance, we determine those matters that were of mostsignificance in the audit of the financial statements of thecurrent 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 orwhen, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that amatter should not be communicated in our report becausethe adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably beexpected to outweigh the public interest benefits of suchcommunication.
