believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion on standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most
significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These
matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone financial statements
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion
on these matters.

Information other than Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report

The company''s Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of the other
information. The other information comprises of the information included in the
management discussion and analysis, Boards report including Annexures to Board''s
Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder’s information, but does not include the
standalone financial statements and our auditors report thereon.

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

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

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibility of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the
Standalone Financial Statements

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 standalone financial statements that give a
true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, including other
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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 implementation and maintenance of accounting policies; making judgments
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 the accounting records, relevant to the
preparation and presentation of the standalone financial statement that give a true and fair
view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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 the Board of
Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting
process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
as a whole are 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 standalone financial statements.

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

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone 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 involve 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 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 system in place and the
operating effectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates 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 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 standalone 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.

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

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that,
individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably
knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider
quantitative 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 standalone financial statements.

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.

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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those
matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of
the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditor''s report unless law or regulation 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 adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
