Valuation of Inventory
Refer to Note 12 to the standalone financial statements. Asdescribed in the accounting policies in note 3.5 to thestandalone financial statements, inventories are carried atlower of cost or net realizable value. As a result, themanagement applies judgment in determining the appropriateprovisions for obsolete stock based upon a detailed analysis ofold inventory, net realizable value below cost based uponfuture plans for sale of inventory. The total amount of Inventoryas on the reporting date stood at Rs. 3,409.26 lakhs.
We determined this to be a matter of significance to our auditdue to quantum of the amount, estimation involved.
We have obtained assurance over theappropriateness of the management'sassumptions applied in calculating the value ofthe inventories and related provisions by:
i. Conducting a walkthrough of the inventoryvaluation process and assessed the designand implementation of the key controlsaddressing the risk;
ii. Verifying for a sample of individual productsthat costs have been correctly recorded.
iii. Comparing the net realizable value to the costprice of inventories to check for completenessof the associated provision, if any.
iv. Reviewing the historical accuracy of inventoryprovisioning and the level of inventory write¬offs during the year, if any.
v. Re-computing provisions recorded to verifythat they are in line with the Company policy.

Also, we have reviewed the inventoryvaluation calculations and compared the costwith the subsequent realization value toconfirm whether item is required to be shownat cost or net realizable value. Necessaryadjustment has been made wherever it wasrequired to comply with the requirement ofInd AS - 2 "Inventories".

AUDITORS' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
8. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a whole are freefrom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion.Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SAswill always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are consideredmaterial if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions ofusers taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
9. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticismthroughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraudor error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficientand appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting fromfraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that areappropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinionon whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls in place with reference to the standalone financialstatements and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and relateddisclosures made by the Management and Board of Directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the Management and Board of Director’s use of the going concern basis ofaccounting 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 we concludethat a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosuresin the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusionsare based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditionsmay cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements, including thedisclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in amanner that achieves fair presentation.
10. 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 reasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statementsmay be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit workand in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalonefinancial statements.
11. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing ofthe audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal financial control that we identifyduring our audit.
12. 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 tn hear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
13. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of mostsignificance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key auditmatters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about thematter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our reportbecause the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits ofsuch communication.
