Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone Ind AS financial statements asa whole are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report thatincludes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an auditconducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements canarise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonablybe expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this standalone Ind AS financialstatements.
As a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also : -
• Identify an assess the risk of material misstatement of the standalone Ind AS financial statements,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risk, and obtainaudit 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 fraudmay involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internalcontrol.
• Obtain and understanding of internal financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design auditprocedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we alsoresponsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controlswith reference to financial statements in place the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimatesand 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 exist related to events or conditionsthat may cast significant doubt on the Companies ability to continue as a going concern. If we concludethat a material uncertainty exist, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the relateddisclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusion 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 standalone Ind AS financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the standalone Ind AS financial statements represents theunderlying transactions 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 its probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financialstatements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning thescope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of anyidentified misstatements in the financial statements.
We communicate with those charge with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope andtiming of the audit and significant audit finding, including any significant deficiencies in internal control thatwe identify during our audit.
We also provide those charges with governance with a statement that we have compiled with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters thatmay reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charges with governance, we determined those matters that wereof most significance in the audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements for the financial year endedMarch 31, 2025 and are therefore no specific key audit matters. We described this matters in our auditor’sreport unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rarecircumstances, we determined that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverseconsequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of suchcommunication.
