The key audit matters
How the matter was addressed in our audit
Capitalization of Assets
There are a number of areas where management judgement impacts thecarrying value of property, plant and equipment, and their respectivedepreciation profiles. These include: - the decision to capitalize orexpense costs; - the annual asset life review including the impact ofchanges in the strategy; and - the timeliness of the transfer from assetsin the course of construction. Refer Note 1.9 - of the standalone financialstatements "Property, plant and equipment".
We tested controls in place over the property, plant and equipment cycle,evaluated the appropriateness of capitalization policies, performed testsof details on costs capitalized and assessed the timeliness of the transferof assets in the course of construction and the application of the asset life.In performing these substantive procedures, we assessed the judgementsmade by management including: - the nature of underlying costscapitalized; - the appropriateness of asset lives applied in the calculationof depreciation. Assessed the appropriateness of work in progress onbalance sheet date by evaluating the underlying documentation to identifypossible delays.
Inventories
At March 31, 2025, Inventory of Finished Goods is disclosed in Note11 - Inventories.
In order to carry inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value,management has identified overheads cost and made adjustments to thecarrying value of these items, the calculation of which requires certainestimates and assumptions. These judgments include bifurcation ofoverhead cost on the Finish good, using factors existing at the reportingdate. i.e., overheads are charged to the Finished goods.
Our procedures included the following to assess inventory cost:
Assessing the reasonableness of the methodologies applied bymanagement for consistency with prior years and our knowledge ofindustry practice.
• Evaluating the assumptions and estimates applied to the methodologies
- testing the identification of such inventories.
- testing the accuracy of historical information and data trends.
• Sample Testing the estimated future sales values, less estimated coststo sell against the carrying value of the inventories.
• Recalculating the arithmetical accuracy of the computations.
The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible forthe other information. The other information comprises the informationincluded in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board's Reportincluding Annexures to Board's Report, Business Responsibility Report,Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but doesnot include the standalone financial statements and our auditor'sreport thereon.
• Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not coverthe other information and we do not express any form of assuranceconclusion thereon.
• In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements,our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so,consider whether the other information is materially inconsistentwith the standalone financial statements, or our knowledgeobtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to bematerially misstated.
• If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there isa material misstatement of this other information; we are required toreport that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Company's Management and Board of Directors is responsiblefor the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone financialstatements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,financial performance, and cash flows of the Company in accordancewith the accounting principles generally accepted in India, includingthe accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. Thisresponsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting recordsin accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of theassets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and otherirregularities; selection and application of appropriate implementationand maintenance of accounting policies; making judgments andestimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementationand maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that wereoperating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness ofthe accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation ofthe financial statement that give a true and fair view and are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management isresponsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a goingconcern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concernand using the going concern basis of accounting unless managementeither intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or hasno realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company'sfinancial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whetherthe standalone financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'sreport that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level ofassurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered materialif, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of thesestandalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professionaljudgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalonefinancial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design andperform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain auditevidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for ouropinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resultingfrom fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud mayinvolve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations,or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls relevant tothe audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriatein the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are alsoresponsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Companyhas an adequate internal financial controls system in place and theoperating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and thereasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosuresmade by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the goingconcern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidenceobtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events orconditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's abilityto continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a materialuncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor'sreport to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statementsor, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the dateof our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions maycause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of thestandalone financial statements, including the disclosures, andwhether the standalone financial statements represent the underlyingtransactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone FinancialStatements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable thatthe economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of theStandalone Financial Statements may be influenced. We considerquantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scopeof our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) toevaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the StandaloneFinancial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding,among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit andsignificant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internalcontrol that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statementthat we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regardingindependence, and to communicate with them all relationships and othermatters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence,and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance,we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit ofthe standalone financial statements of the current year and are thereforethe key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's reportunless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter orwhen, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter shouldnot be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences ofdoing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interestbenefits of such communication.
