The other information comprises theinformation included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board’s Report including Annexures to Board’sReport, Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder’s Information,but does not include 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 anyform of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the otherinformation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the standalonefinancial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materiallymisstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this otherinformation, we required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibility of Management and Board of Directors for the standalone Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in the section 134(5) of the Act with respectto the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and Cash Flows of the Companyin accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Ind AS specified under section133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance withthe provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the company and for preventing and detecting frauds andother irregularities; the selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments andestimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internalfinancial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accountingrecords, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statements that give a true andfair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management and Board of Directors are responsible forassessing 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraudor error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these stand alone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whetherdue to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain auditevidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting amaterial misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud mayinvolve 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 auditprocedures that 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 standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness ofsuch controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by the 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 orconditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If weconclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report tothe related disclosures in the Standalone 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 ourauditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue asa going concern
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the stand alone financial statements represent the underlyingtransactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or inaggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalonefinancial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planningthe scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identifiedmisstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope andtiming of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal financial controlsthat we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that mayreasonably 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 ofmost significance in the audit of the stand alone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the Keyaudit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
