We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified undersection 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards arefurther described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements sectionof our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issuedby the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that arerelevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013and the Rules there under, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordancewith these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we haveobtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significancein our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed inthe context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on those matters.
In our opinion and according to the information and explanation given to us, there were no keyaudit matters which required to be reported.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other informationcomprises the information included in the management discussion and analysis, Board Reportincluding Annexure to Boards Report but does not include the financial statements and ourauditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do notexpress any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the otherinformation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistentwith the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to bematerially misstated.
We conclude that there is no material misstatement of other information.
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 financial statements thatgive a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, (changes in equity) andcash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted inIndia, including the accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. Thisresponsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with theprovisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing anddetecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accountingpolicies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design,implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operatingeffectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to thepreparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and arefree from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors 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 the Board of Directorseither intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative butto do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reportingprocess.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue anauditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance butis not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect a materialmisstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are consideredmaterial if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence theeconomic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We are also:
• Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to thoserisks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis forour opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is
higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtaining an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to designaudit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) ofthe Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whetherthe company has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness ofaccounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Concluding 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 in thefinancial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’sreport. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continueas a going concern.
• Evaluating the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlyingtransactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters,the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including anysignificant deficiencies 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 our independence,and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with those chargedwith governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of thefinancial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describethese matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure aboutthe 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 beexpected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
