Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of The Financial Statements:
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's reportthat includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guaranteethat an audit conducted in accordance with SAS will always detect a material misstatement when itexists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or inthe aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users takenon the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional scepticism 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,misrepresentations, or the override of interrial 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)(i) of theCompanies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for, expressing our opinion on whether thecompany has adequate internal financial controls system 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 ability of the Company
to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we arerequired to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalonefinancial 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's report.However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as goingconcern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financialstatements, including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statementsrepresent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• 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 standalone financial statements may be influenced. We considerquantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work andin evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identifiedmisstatements in the standalone financial statements. We communicate with those chargedwith governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the auditand significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that weidentify during our audit, iuate the effect of any identified misstatements in the standalonefinancial statements.
