These matters wereaddressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in formingour opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We havedetermined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the FinancialStatements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) ofthe Act with respect to the preparation of these Standalone Financial Statements that give atrue and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, changes in equity and cashflows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted inIndia, including the IND AS specified under section 133 of the Act.

In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, the Board of Directors is responsible forassessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless theBoard of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has norealistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reportingprocess.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether financial statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue anauditor'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 SAs will always detect amaterial misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintainprofessional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Standalone FinancialStatements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit proceduresresponsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriateto provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatementresulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override ofinternal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to designaudit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section 143(3)(i) ofthe Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the companyhas 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 materialuncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt onthe Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a materialuncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to therelated disclosures in the Standalone Financial Statements or, if such disclosures areinadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidenceobtained 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 FinancialStatements, including the disclosures, and whether the Standalone FinancialStatements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner thatachieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, theplanned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including anysignificant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have compliedwith relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with themall relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on ourindependence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine thosematters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the currentperiod and therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's reportunless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or where, in extremelyrare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our reportbecause the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably outweigh the publicinterest of such communication.
