 RESPONSIBILITIES OF MANAGEMENT ANDBOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE STANDALONE
 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 The Company's Board of Directors is responsiblefor 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 including
 other comprehensive income, cash flows and
 changes in equity of the Company in accordance
 with the accounting principles generally accepted in
 India, including 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 andcompleteness 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 intend to liquidate the Company or to cease
 operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
 The Company's Board of Directors is also responsiblefor overseeing the Company's financial reporting
 process.
 AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEAUDIT OF THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL
 STATEMENTS
 Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assuranceabout 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 exerciseprofessional judgment and maintain professional
 skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
 •    Identify and assess the risks of materialmisstatement 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 financialcontrols 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 accountingpolicies used and the reasonableness of
 accounting estimates and related disclosures
 made by the management.
 •    Conclude on the appropriateness ofmanagement'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 andcontent 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 thestandalone 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 withgovernance regarding, among other matters, the
 planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
 audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in
 internal financial controls that we identify during our
 audit.
 We also provide those charged with governance witha 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 chargedwith 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 sowould reasonably be expected to outweigh the public
 interest benefits of such communication.
