Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon

The Company''s management and 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 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 our 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 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, changes in equity and cash
flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in
India, including the accounting Standards 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 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 Ind AS financial statement 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 Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company''s
financial reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibility 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 financial controls 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.

• 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.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, 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.
