Key Audit Matter

Auditor's Response
|
Revenue Recognition:
Based on its business model in Cables & Conductor, the company has many different types of terms of delivery arising from different types of performance obligations with its customers. Revenue from sale of goods is recognised when control is transferred to the customers and when there are no other unfulfilled obligations. This requires detailed analysis of each contract regarding timing of revenue recognition. Inappropriate assessment could lead to risk of revenue getting recognised before control has been transferred. Accordingly, timing of recognition of revenue is a key audit matter.
|
Our audit procedures over the recognition of revenue
included the following:
• We assessed the compliance of the company's revenue recognition accounting policies against the requirements of Indian Accounting Standards ("Ind AS") to identify any inappropriate policy;
• We tested the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of key internal financial controls and processes for revenue recognition along with effectiveness of information technology controls built in automated processes;
• On a sample basis, we tested revenue transactions recorded during the year, by verifying the underlying documents, including invoices and shipping documents for assessment of fulfillment of performance obligations completed during the year; We analyzed the timing of recognition of revenue and any unusual contractual terms;
• On a sample basis, we tested the invoice and shipping documents for revenue transactions recorded during the period closer to the year end and subsequent to the year end to verify recognition of revenue in the correct period.

Valuation of Trade Receivable:
Trade receivables is a significant item in the Company's financial statements as at March 31, 2024 and assumptions used for estimating the credit loss on certain receivables is an area which is determined by management's judgment. The Company makes an assessment of the estimated credit losses on certain trade receivables based on credit risk, project status, past history, latest discussion/ correspondence with the customer. Given the significance of these receivables in the financial statements as at 31st March, 2023, we determined this to be a key audit matter.
|
Our audit procedure included, among others: •
• Evaluated the accounting policy of the company.
• Inquired with senior management regarding status of collectability of the receivable.
• Amount recovered subsequent to the Balance Sheet date.
• Discussion of material outstanding balances with the audit committee.
• Assessed the information/assumptions used by the Management to determine the expected credit losses by considering credit risk of the customer, cash collection, and the level of credit loss over time.

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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information 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, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact, since these report are expected to be made available to us after the date of this audit report hence currently, We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance 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, and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the 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 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, the Board of Directors 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 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 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 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 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.
• 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 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.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the company to express an opinion on the statement.
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.
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.
