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 Standalone Financial Statements under
the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we

appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the

Information Other than the Standalone 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
Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor’s report
thereon, which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s
report, and the Annual report, which is expected to be made
available to us after that date.

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
identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other
information is materially inconsistent with the Standalone
Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit,
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed on the other
information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s
report, 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.

Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for
the Standalone Financial Statements

The Company’s 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 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 Indian
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 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 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, the Board
of Directors of the Company 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 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
Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities 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 control 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 and Board of
Directors.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and
Board of Director’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, 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 Standalone Financial
Statements of 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.
