The Company's Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.Auditor's Responsibility for The Audit of The Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includesour opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraudor error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influencethe economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whetherdue to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain auditevidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting amaterial misstatement resulting from 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design auditprocedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(I) of the Act, we are alsoresponsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controlsystem with reference to standalone financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness ofsuch controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by the management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting 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 weconclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report tothe related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, tomodify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of ourauditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as agoing concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements,including the disclosures, and whether 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 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) planningthe scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identifiedmisstatements 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 financial controlsthat we identify 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.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were ofmost significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore thekey audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure about the 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 be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
