Our responsibilities under those Standards are furtherdescribed in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of ourreport.

We believe that the auditevidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the Standalonefinancial statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our auditof the Standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context ofour audit of the Standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do notprovide a separate opinion on these matters. Our report does not include any key audit matter, as there was nomatter of most significance which came to our notice during the Audit.
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The otherinformation comprises the information included in the Annual Report 2024-25 but does not include theConsolidated financial statements, Standalone financial statements and auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the Standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not expressany form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the otherinformation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with theStandalone financialstatements, or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appearsto be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this otherinformation, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respectto the preparation of these Standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financialposition, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of theCompany in accordance with the Ind AS and accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibilityalso includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act forsafeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities;selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that arereasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls,that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevantto the preparation and presentation of the Standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view andare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Standalone financial statements, management and the Board of Directors are responsible forassessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to goingconcern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone financial statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, 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 aggregate, they could reasonably beexpected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Standalone financialstatements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
a) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of theStandalone financial statements, whether dueto fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidencethat is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement 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.
b) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures thatare appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controlswith reference toStandalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimatesand related disclosures made by management.
d) Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the Going Concern basis of accounting and basedon the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions thatmay cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that amaterial uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the relateddisclosures in the Standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify ouropinion. Our conclusions 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.
e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the Standalone financial statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the Standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions andevents in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone financial statements that, individually or inaggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalonefinancial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i)planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect ofany identified misstatements in the Standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope andtiming of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that weidentify during our audit.
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 thatmay reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes
public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter shouldnot be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably beexpected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
