AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THEAUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance aboutwhether the financial statements as a whole are free frommaterial 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 isnot a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement whenit exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error andare considered material if, individually or in the aggregate,they could reasonably be expected to influence theeconomic decisions of users taken on the basis of thesefinancial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exerciseprofessional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatementof the financial statements, whether due to fraudor error, design and perform audit proceduresresponsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidencethat is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basisfor our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement resulting from fraud is higher than foroneresulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations,or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevantto the audit in order to design audit procedures thatare appropriate in the circumstances. Under section143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the Company hasadequate internal financial controls system in placeand the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policiesused and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made bymanagement.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’suse of the going concern basis of accounting and,based on the audit evidence obtained, whethera material uncertainty exists related to events orconditions that may cast significant doubt on theCompany’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 reportto the related disclosures in the financial statementsor, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify ouropinion. Our conclusions are based on the auditevidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’sreport. However, future events or conditions maycause the Company to cease to continue as a goingconcern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure andcontent of the financial statements, including thedisclosures, and whether the financial statementsrepresent the underlying transactions and events ina manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in thefinancial statements that, individually or in aggregate,makes it probable that the economic decisions ofa reasonably knowledgeable user of the financialstatements may be influenced. We consider quantitativemateriality and qualitative factors in (i) planning thescope of our audit work and in evaluating the results ofour work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identifiedmisstatements in the financial statements.
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 witha statement that we have complied with relevantethical requirements regarding independence, and tocommunicate with them all relationships and othermatters that may reasonably be thought to bear on ourindependence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged withgovernance, we determine those matters that were ofmost significance in the audit of the financial statementsfor the financial year ended March 31, 2025 and aretherefore the key audit matters. We describe thesematters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulationprecludes public disclosure about the matter or when, inextremely rare circumstances, we determine that a mattershould not be communicated in our report because theadverse consequences of doing so would reasonably beexpected to outweigh the public interest benefits of suchcommunication.
