Information Other than the Ind AS financial statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
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 Ind AS financial statements and our auditor''s report
thereon. The Company''s annual report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s report.
Our opinion on the Ind AS 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 standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to
be materially misstated.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Ind AS financial statements
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the
Act") with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in
India, 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 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 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 of the Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Ind AS financial statements, Board of Directors 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.
Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS 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 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 Ind AS 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 Companies Act, 2013, 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 material 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 Ind
AS 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 Ind AS financial statements including the
disclosures, and whether the Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Ind AS financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes
it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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.

significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position,
financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with
the Accounting Standards notified under the Companies Act, 1956 ("the

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with
ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures
selected depend on the auditor''s judgment, including the assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the Company''s preparation and
fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company''s
internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion

explanations given to us, the financial statements give the information
required by the Act in the manner so required and give a true and fair
