The other informationcomprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Reportincluding Annexures to Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance andShareholder’s Information, but does not include the consolidated financial statements, standalonefinancial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the standalone financial statementsdoes not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
B. In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read theother information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistentwith the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit orotherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we concludethat there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report the fact. Wehave nothing to report in this regard.
A. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Actwith respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view ofthe financial position, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equityand cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generallyaccepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records inaccordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventingand detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies;making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation andmaintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring theaccuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation ofthe standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement,whether due to fraud or error.
B. In preparing the standalone financial statements, the Board of Directors of the Company is responsiblefor assessing the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,matters related to the going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Boardof Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternativebut to do so. The Board of Directors of the Company is also responsible for overseeing the financialreporting process of the Company.
A. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial results as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not aguarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatementwhen it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individuallyor in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of userstaken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
B. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also :
i) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial results, whetherdue 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 notdetecting 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 overrideof internal control.
ii) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit proceduresthat are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are alsoresponsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financialcontrols with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of suchcontrols.
iii) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
iv) Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors’ use of the going concern basis ofaccounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty existsrelated to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company tocontinue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required todraw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial resultsor, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on theaudit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditionsmay cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
v) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent theunderlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
C. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individuallyor in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user ofthe standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality andqualitative factors in:
(i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and
(ii) t o evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
D. We communicate with those charged with governance of the Company regarding, among other matters,the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significantdeficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
E. We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevantethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships andother matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,related safeguards.
F. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those mattersthat were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current periodand are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law orregulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, wedetermine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequencesof doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
