Basis for Opinion

3. We conducted our audit of financial statements in
accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs)
as specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further
described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit
of the Financial Statements section of our report. We
are independent of the Company in accordance with
the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India together with the ethical
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the
financial statements under the provisions of the Act
and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these
requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that
the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion
on the Financial Statements.

Key Audit Matters

4. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the financial statements of the current
period. These matters were addressed in the context
of our audit of the financial statements as a whole
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not
provide a separate opinion on these matters. We
have determined that there are no key audit matters
to communicate in our report.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and

Auditor's Report Thereon

5. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for
the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in
the Company's Board Report including Annexures
but does not include the financial statements and our
auditor's report thereon.

6. Our opinion on the financial statements does not
cover the other information and we do not express
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

7. In connection with our audit of the financial
statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the
other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements, or our knowledge obtained
during the course of our audit or otherwise appears
to be materially misstated.

8. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude
that there is no material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact and
we have nothing to report in this regard.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial

Statements:

9. The Company's Board of Directors is responsible
for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act
with respect to the preparation of these financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial
position, financial performance, changes in equity
and cash flows in accordance with the accounting
principles generally accepted in India, including the
Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of
the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance
of adequate accounting records in accordance with the
provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of
the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds
and other irregularities; selection and application of
appropriate accounting policies; making judgements
and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
and design, implementation and maintenance of
adequate internal financial controls, that were
operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and
completeness of accounting records, relevant to
the preparation and presentation of the financial
statements that give a true and fair view and are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.

10. In preparing the financial statements, management
is responsible for assessing 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 management
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

11. The Board of Directors are also responsible for
overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial

Statements:

12. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements as a whole
or free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error, and to issue an auditor'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 a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.

13. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit We also:

i. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement
of the 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
one resulting from error, as fraud may involvecollusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or
the override of internal control.

ii. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant
to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section
143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for
expressing our opinion on whether the Company has
adequate internal financial controls with reference
to financial statements in place and the operating
effectiveness of such controls.

iii. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.

iv. 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 or
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If
we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we
are required to draw attention in our auditor's report
to the related disclosures in the financial statements
or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our
opinion. 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.

v. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and
content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements
represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.

14. Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
financial statements that, individually or in aggregate,
makes it probable that the economic decisions of
a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial
statementsmaybeinfluenced.Weconsiderquantitative
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 of any
identified misstatements in the financial statements.

15. We communicate with those charged with governance
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
and timing of the audit and significant audit findings,
including any significant deficiencies in internal
control that we identify during our audit.

16. We also provide those charged with governance with
a statement that we have complied with relevant
ethical requirements regarding independence, and to
communicate with them all relationships and other
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related
safeguards.
