We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified undersection143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in theAuditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We areindependent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute ofChartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to ouraudit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rulesmade thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with theserequirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained issufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the financial statements.
The Company’s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of theother information. The other information comprises of the information included in the Company’sannual report but does not include the financial statements and out auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do notexpress any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the otherinformation and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent withthe financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the auditor or otherwise appears to bematerially mis-stated. If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a materialmisstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to reportin this regard.
The Company’s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated inSection 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give atrue and fair view of financial position, financial performance, and cash flow of the Company inaccordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the AccountingStandards prescribed under section 133 of the Act.

In preparing the financial statements, the Management and Board of Directors are responsible forassessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, mattersrelated to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless managementeither intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative butto do so.
The Board of Directors and those charged with governance is also responsible for overseeing thecompany’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are freefrom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report thatincludes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee thatan 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 orin the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of userstaken on the basis of these financial statements. The description of the auditor’s responsibilitiesfor the audit of the financial statements is mentioned below:
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 financial statements, whether due tofraud 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 notdetecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or theoverride of the internal 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 the Act, we arealso responsible for expressing an opinion on whether the company has adequate internalfinancial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectivenessof such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by the Management and Board of Directors.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s and Board of Directors’ use of the goingconcern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a materialuncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on theCompany’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertaintyexists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in thefinancial 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 a goingconcern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements, includingthe disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions andevents in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the plannedscope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficienciesin internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied withrelevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them allrelationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence andwhere applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those mattersthat were of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the current period and aretherefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law orregulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances,we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverseconsequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits ofsuch communication.
