Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s
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 (ICAI) together with the ethical requirements that are
relevant to our audit of the Financial Statements under the provisions of the Companies
Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, 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 we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion on the 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 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.

We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be
communicated in our report.

Reporting of key audit matters as per SA 701, Key Audit Matters are not applicable to the
Company as it is an unlisted company.

Information Other Than the 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 Financial Statements and our auditors'' report 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 such 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.

Responsibility of the Management for the 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
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 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 statement 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 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.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial
reporting process.

Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

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 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 a part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgement 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, 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 system 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 the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of 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 Financial Statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the 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 the relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with
them all relationships and other matter that may be reasonably be thought to bear on our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
