Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone IND AS Financial Statements
The Order of Hon'ble National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Ahmedabad Bench dated October 11, 2023 inCP(IB)/127/AHM/2020 which has admitted the Corporate Debtor ('the Company') into Corporate Insolvency ResolutionProcess (CIRP) under section 9(5)(i) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code and appointed Ms. Vineeta MaheshwariInsolvency Resolution Professional (IRP) and thereafter she was confirmed as Resolution Professional in the meetingof Committee of Creditors ('COC'). The powers of the Board of Directors of the company are suspended and officersand managers of the Corporate Debtor ("The Company") shall report to the Insolvency Resolution Professional (IRP)as per the Provisions of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. Accordingly, the Insolvency Resolution Professional(IRP) is running the CIRP and looking after the affairs of the company along with its management.
The Company's Board of Directors /Resolution Professional (RP) is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) ofthe Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone IND AS financial statements that give a true and fair view of thefinancial position, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of theCompany in accordance with the IND AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibilityalso includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguardingthe assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application ofappropriate 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 theaccuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone INDAS financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror.
In preparing the standalone IND AS financial statements, Board of Directors /Resolution Professional (RP) is responsiblefor assessing the Company'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 liquidate the Company or tocease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors /Resolution Professional (RP) are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financialreporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone IND AS financial statements as a whole arefree 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 SAswill always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are consideredmaterial if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of userstaken on the basis of these standalone 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 financial statements, whether due to fraud orerror, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient andappropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraudis 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 areappropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinionon whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operating effectiveness ofsuch controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relateddisclosures made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on theaudit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significantdoubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, weare required to draw attention 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 the audit evidence obtainedup to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease tocontinue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone IND AS financial statements, including thedisclosures, and whether the standalone IND AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and eventsin a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing ofthe audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify duringour audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirementsregarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thoughtto 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 curre nt period and are therefore the key auditmatters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about thematter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our reportbecause the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits ofsuch communication.
