These matters wereaddressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements, and in forming ouropinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude thatthere is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. Wehave nothing to report in this regard.
Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements
8. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of theCompanies Act, 2013 (“the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone Ind AS financialstatements, that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance includingother comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordancewith the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian AccountingStandards (Ind As) specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issuedthereunder.

9. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company'sability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concernand using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate theCompany or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
10. Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reportingprocess.
Auditors Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Ind AS Standalone Financial Statements
11. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and toissue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level ofassurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detecta material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financialstatements.
12. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone 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 oneresulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misreoresentations.orthe override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design auditprocedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(lf the Act, we arealso responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internalfinancial controls with reference to standalone financial statements 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 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 uncertainty existsrelated to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability tocontinue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are requiredto draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalone financialstatements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions arebased on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, futureevents or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent theunderlying transactions and events in a mannerthat achieves fair presentation.
13. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that,individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonablyknowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitativemateriality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of ourauditwork and in evaluating theresults of our work; and (ii)to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the financialstatements.
14. 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.
15. 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 our independence, andwhere applicable, related safeguards.
16. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those mattersthat were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the currentperiod and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' reportunless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rarecircumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because theadverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interestbenefits of such communication.
