the statement of Other Comprehensive Income, the Cash
Flow Statement and the Statement of Changes in Equity for
the year then ended, and notes to the standalone financial
statements, including a summary of material accounting

In our opinion and to the best of our information and

required by the Companies Act, 2013, as amended (“the
Act”) in the manner so required and give a true and fair
view in conformity with the accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as
at March 31, 2025, its profit including other comprehensive
income, its cash flows and the changes in equity for the
year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the standalone 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 Standalone 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
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 for the financial year ended
March 31, 2025. 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. For each
matter below, our description of how our audit addressed
the matter is provided in that context.

We have determined the matter described below to be
the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the
Auditor''s responsibilities for the audit of the standalone
financial statements section of our report, including in
relation to this matter. Accordingly, our audit included the
performance of procedures designed to respond to our
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
standalone financial statements. The results of our audit
procedures, including the procedures performed to address
the matter below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on
the accompanying standalone financial statements.

Key audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

IT Systems and controls

The financial accounting and reporting systems of the Company
are fundamentally reliant on IT systems and IT controls to
process significant transaction volumes.

Automated accounting procedures and IT environment controls,
which include IT governance, general IT controls over program
development and changes, access to programs and data and IT
operations, are required to be designed and to operate effectively
to ensure accurate financial reporting.

Therefore, due to the pervasive nature and complexity of the IT
environment, the assessment of the general IT controls and the
application controls specific to the accounting and preparation of
the financial information is considered to be a key audit matter.

We performed the following procedures assisted by specialized
IT auditors on the IT infrastructure and applications relevant to
financial reporting:

• Tested the design and operating effectiveness of IT access
controls, including audit trail, over the information systems
that are relevant to financial reporting and relevant interfaces,
configuration and other identified application controls.

• Tested IT general controls (logical access, change management
and aspects of IT operational controls). This included testing
that requests for access and changes of access to systems
were appropriately reviewed, authorized.

• Tested the Company’s periodic review of access rights. We
also tested requests of changes to systems for approval and
authorization.

• In addition to the above, we tested the design and operating
effectiveness of certain automated and IT dependent manual
controls that were considered as key internal controls over
financial reporting.

• Tested the design and operating effectiveness of compensating
manual controls in case deficiencies were identified and,
where necessary, extended the scope of our substantive audit
procedures.


Other Information

The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for
the other information. The other information comprises
the information included in the Annual report, but does
not include the standalone financial statements and our
auditor''s report thereon.

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

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

When we read such other information, if we conclude that
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance
and to comply with the relevant applicable requirements
of the standard on auditing for auditor''s responsibility
in relation to other information in documents containing
audited standalone financial statements. We have nothing
to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management 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, cash
flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India,
including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified
under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies
(Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended.
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 judgments and estimates that are reasonable and
prudent; and the 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 statements
that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone 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.
Those charged with governance are also 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 standalone 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 skepticism
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 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.

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

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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2025
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.
