Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules there under, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with
these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor’s Response

1.

Accuracy of recognition,
measurement, presentation and
disclosures of revenues and
other related balances in view of
adoption of Ind AS 115 “Revenue
from Contract with Customers"
The application of the revenue
accounting standard involves
certain key judgements relating
to identification of distinct
performance obligations,
determination of transaction price
of the identified performance
obligations, the appropriateness
of the basis used to measure
revenue recognized over a
period. Additionally, new revenue
accounting standard contains
disclosures which involves
collation of information in respect
of disaggregated revenue and
periods over which the remaining
performance obligations will
be satisfied subsequent to the
balance sheet date.

Princioal Audit Procedures

Our audit approach consisted testing of the design and operating effectiveness of the internal

controls and substantive testing as follows:

• Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to implementation of the new revenue
accounting standard.

• Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts, and tested the operating effectiveness
of the internal control, relating to identification of the distinct performance obligations and
determination of transaction price. We carried out a combination of procedures involving
enquiry and observation, performance and inspection of evidence in respect of operation of
these controls.

• Tested the relevant information technology systems'' access and change management
controls relating to contracts and related information used in recording and disclosing revenue
in accordance with the new revenue accounting standard

• Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts and performed the following procedures:

• Read, analyzed and identified the distinct performance obligations in these contracts.

• Compared these performance obligations with that identified and recorded by the Company.

• Considered the terms of the contracts to determine the transaction price including any variable
consideration to verify the transaction price used to compute revenue and to test the basis of
elimination

• Samples in respect of revenue recorded for time and material contracts were tested
using a combination customer acceptances, subsequent invoicing and historical trend of
collections and disputes. Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness of revenues
disclosed.

Information other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report thereon

The Company''s Management and Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Board''s Report including Annexures to Board''s Report but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and
our auditor''s report thereon. The other information is expected to be made available to us after the date of the Auditor''s Report.

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 Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained during the course
of audit or otherwise appears 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 Financial Statements

The Company''s Management and 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 to 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 Ind AS 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 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.

In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, Management and Board of Directors are 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 Company''s Management and Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statement

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 standalone 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 and Board of Directors.

• 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 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 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.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial

Reporting

6. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that

i. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

ii. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

iii. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

7. Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

8. I n our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.
