The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of other information. The other information comprises theinformation included in the Board’s Report including Annexures to the Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report & Other Reports but does notinclude the standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assuranceconclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, considerwhether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit orotherwise 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 thatfact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsiblefor the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone financialstatements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordancewith the accounting principles generally accepted in India, includingAccounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read theCompanies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 as amended.
This responsibility also includes the maintenance of adequateaccounting records in accordance with the provision of the Act forsafeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing anddetecting the frauds and other irregularities; selection and applicationof appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimatesthat are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation andmaintenance of adequate internal financial control, that were operatingeffectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of theaccounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of thestandalone financial statements that give a true and fair view and arefree from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, Management & Boardof Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability tocontinue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related togoing concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unlessmanagement or the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate theCompany or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but todo so.
The Management of the Company and Board of Directors are alsoresponsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whetherthe standalone financial statements as a whole are free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'sreport that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a highlevel of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement whenit exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are consideredmaterial if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably beexpected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on thebasis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professionaljudgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of thestandalone 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 toprovide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resultingfrom error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentionalomissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to theaudit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriatein the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)0) of the Act, weare also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether theCompany has adequate internal financial controls with referenceto standalone financial statements in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and thereasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosuresmade by the Management & Board of Directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use ofthe going concern basis of accounting and, based on theaudit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty existsrelated to events or conditions that may cast significant doubton the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If weconclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required todraw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosuresin the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures areinadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based onthe audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report.However, future events or conditions may cause the Company tocease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of thestandalone financial statements, including the disclosures, andwhether the standalone financial statements represent theunderlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fairpresentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalonefinancial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makesit probable that the economic decisions of a reasonablyknowledgeable user of the standalone financial statementsmay be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality andqualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit workand in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate theeffect of any identified misstatements in the standalone financialstatements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding,among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the auditand significant audit findings, including any significant deficienciesin internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statementthat we have complied with relevant ethical requirementsregarding independence, and to communicate with them allrelationships and other matters that may reasonably be thoughtto bear on our independence, and where applicable, relatedsafeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged withgovernance, we determine those matters that were of mostsignificance in the audit of the standalone financial statementsof the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law orregulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when,in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a mattershould not be communicated in our report because the adverseconsequences of doing so would reasonably be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
