We have audited the accompanying financial statements of VCU Data Management Limited ("the Company"),
which comprise the balance sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss, including the
statement of Other Comprehensive income, statement of cash flows, and the Statement of Changes in Equity
for the year then ended for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid
Financial Statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 ('Act') in the manner so required
and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state
of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, its Profit / Loss and cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards on auditing specified under section 143 (10) of the
Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the auditor's
responsibilities for the audit of the 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 together
with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Statements under the provisions of
the Act and the rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these
requirements and the code of ethics.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of
the Financial Statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
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 below to be key audit matters to be communicated in our report:

Information other than the Financial Statements and auditors' report thereon

The Company's board of directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report,
Business Responsibility Report but does not include the Financial Statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the 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 Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and,
in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the 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.

Management's responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Company's board of directors are responsible for the matters stated in section 134 (5) of the Act with respect
to the preparation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in
India, including the accounting standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of
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 Financial Statement that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the 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 are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 Financial Statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Companies Act, 2013, 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 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 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 Financial Statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in
a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in aggregate,
makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the 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 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 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.
