Key audit matters

How our audit addressed the key audit matter
|
|
• The Company has revenue from sale of products
which includes finished goods. The Company is
engaged in manufacturing of PVC Pipes as per
specification provided by the customers and
based on the schedules from the customers.
• The Company recognizes revenue from sale of
goods at a point in time when control of the
goods is transferred to the customer, based on
the terms of the contract with customers which
varies for each customer. Determination of
point in time includes assessment of timing of
transfer of significant risk and rewards of
ownership, establishing the present right to
receive payment for the products, delivery
specifications including Inco terms, timing of
transfer of legal title of the asset and
determination of the point of acceptance of
goods by customer. Further, the pricing of the
products is dependent on metal indices and
foreign exchange fluctuation making the price
volatile.
• Due to judgments relating to determination of
point in time in satisfaction of performance
obligations with respect to sale of products, this
matter has been considered as key audit matter.

invoice, income-terms etc. and testingthe
management assessment involved in the process,
wherever applicable.

our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
4. 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.
Management's Responsibility for the Ind AS Standalone Financial Statements
1. 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 Ind AS Standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the Ind AS
and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. 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 Standalone financial statements that give a true and
fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
2. In preparing the Ind AS Standalone financial statements, the 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.
3. The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS Standalone Financial Statements
1. 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 Ind AS Standalone financial statements.
2. 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 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 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 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 Ind AS Standalone financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the Ind AS Standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events
in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
3 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.
4 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.
5. 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.
6. 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 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.
