Basis for Qualified Opinion
1) The company has not ascertained the applicability of provisrons of payment of Graturty to employees and doesnot have any actuarial valuation provision in the financial statement against such employee benefits, we are unableto comment on the correctness of cost of employee benefits charged to statement of profit and loss as per actuarialvaluation and the disclosure as required by the Ind AS-19 in the financial statements
2) Information required to be disclosed as per MSME Act 2006 has not been disclosed. Since company has notcompleted the process of collecting the information relating to the small and Micro units rendering services orsupplying goods to the company, we are unable to determine whether there was delay in making payment to suchentities and the resultant interest for such delay as prescribed under MSME Act 2006 not provided in the financialstatement hence profit overstated to the extent of interest provision not provided.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Ind AS financial statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report thatincludes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an auditconducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements canarise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably beexpected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Ind AS financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:
? Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone Ind AS financial statements, whether dueto fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that issufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The nsk of not detecting a material misstatementresulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentionalomissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
? Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures thatare appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing ouropinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.
? Evaluate the appropnateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates andrelated disclosures made by management.
? Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on theaudit evidence obtained, whether a matenal uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may castsignificant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a materialuncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in theStandalone Ind AS financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future eventsor conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
? Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Standalone Ind AS financial statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in amanner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Ind AS financial statements that, individually or inaggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financialstatements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scopeof our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identifiedmisstatements in the financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timingof the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identifyduring our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that mayreasonably 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 mostsignificance in the audit of the Standalone Ind AS financial statements of the current period and are therefore thekey audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
