Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134 (5) ofthe Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone IndAS financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs, Profit (includingother comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company inaccordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the IndianAccounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed under section 133 of the Act.
This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordancewith the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventingand detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriateaccounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; anddesign, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that wereoperating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records,relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone Ind AS financial statementsthat give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraudor error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing theCompany's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related togoing concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management eitherintends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but todo so.
Board of directors is also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reportingprocess.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether standalone financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or errorand to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high levelof assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will alwaysdetect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or errorand are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected
to influence the economic decision of users taken on the basis of these standalone financialstatements.
As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of the standalone financialstatements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedureresponsive to those risks, and obtain evidence that is sufficient and appropriate toprovide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatementresulting from fraud is higher than the one resulting from error, as fraud may involvecollusion, forgery, intentional, omission, misrepresentation, or the override of internalcontrol.
• Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit in order todesign audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether thecompany has an adequate internal financial control system in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness ofaccounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis ofaccounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertaintyexists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company'sability 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 inthe standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modifyour opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the dateof our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Companyto cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financialstatements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financialstatements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner thatachieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements thatindividually or in aggregate, make it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonablyknowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We considerquantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work andin 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, theplanned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significantdeficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied withrelevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them allrelationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on ourindependence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine thosematters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements ofthe current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in ourauditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter orwhen, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonablybe expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
