We have audited the financial statements of Tavernier Resources Limited (âthe Companyâ), which comprise the
Balance Sheet as at 31 st March 2024, and the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income),
Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial
statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter
referred to as âthe financial statementsâ).
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial
statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (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 31st March 2024, and profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash
flows for the yearended on that date.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under Section 143(10) of the
Act. Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditorâs Responsibilities for the Audit of the
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 opinion on the financial
statements.
Key audit matters are those matters that in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the
financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial
statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these
matters.
There are no key audit matters identified in our audit.
The Companyâs management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Companyâs annual report, but does not include the financial statements and
our auditorsâreport thereon.
Our opinion on the 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 the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the 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.
The Companyâs management and Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the
Act with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs,
profit/(loss) (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows 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 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 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
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 auditorâs 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 skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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, orthe 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)(l) 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 Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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 auditors'' 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 financial statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that individually or in aggregate makes it
probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the 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 misstatement in the 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 financial statements for the year ended 31st March, 2024 and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditorsâ 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.
