BASIS FOR OPINION

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial
statements in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (“SA”s) specified under Section 143(10) of the
Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are
further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the
Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements 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 (“ICAI”)
together with the ethical requirements that are relevant
to our audit of the standalone financial statements
under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made
thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements
and the ICAI's Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit
evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone
financial statements.

KEY AUDIT MATTERS

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the
standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit
of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a
separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters
to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor’s Response

1. Provisions and contingent liabilities in relation to tax positions

The Management have made
judgements relating to the
likelihood of an obligation
arising and whether there is a
need to recognize a provision
or disclose a contingent liability.
We therefore focused on this
area as a result of uncertainty
and potential material impact.

Refer Note 38 to the financial

We have involved our experts to gain an understanding of the current status
of the tax cases and monitored changes in the disputes by reading external
opinions received by the company if any, where relevant to establish that the
tax provisions had been appropriately adjusted to reflect the latest external
developments.

For Legal, regulatory and tax matters our procedures included the following:

• Testing key controls surrounding litigation, regulatory and tax procedures.

• Performing substantive procedures on the underlying calculations supporting
the provisions recorded.

statements.

• Where relevant, reading external legal opinions obtained by the
management.

• Discussing open matters with the litigation, regulator, general counsel and
tax teams.

• Assessing management's conclusions through understanding precedents
set in similar cases.

Based on the evidence obtained, while noting the inherent uncertainty with such
legal, regulatory and tax matters, we determined the level of provisioning and
disclosure of contingent liabilities as at March 31, 2025 to be appropriate.

INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND AUDITOR'S REPORT
THEREON

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the
other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Management Discussion and
Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's
Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate
Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does
not include the standalone financial statements and our
auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does
not cover the other 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 the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other
information is materially inconsistent with the standalone
financial statements or our knowledge obtained during
the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude
that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF MANAGEMENT AND
THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE FOR
THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company's Board of Directors is responsible
for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act
with respect to the preparation of these standalone
financial statements that give a true and fair view of
the financial position, financial performance, including
other comprehensive income, changes in equity and
cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind
AS and other accounting principles generally accepted
in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance
of adequate accounting records in accordance with
the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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 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 standalone financial statements
that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial statements,
management is 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
management either intends to liquidate the Company
or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but
to do so.

The Board of Directors is 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 statements as
a whole are 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 these
standalone financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional
scepticism 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 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 financial
control relevant to the audit in order to design
audit 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 adequate internal
financial controls system in place and the operating
effectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting
policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures
made by the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's
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 standalone
financial statements 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's 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 standalone financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the
standalone financial statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner
that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
standalone financial statements that, individually or
in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic
decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the
standalone financial statements may be influenced.
We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative
factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in
evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the
effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone
financial statements.

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.

From the matters communicated with those charged
with governance, we determine those matters that
were of most significance in the audit of the standalone
financial statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these
matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation
precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,
in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that
a matter should not be communicated in our report
because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest
benefits of such communication.
