INFORMATION OTHER THAN THE STANDALONE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND AUDITORS' REPORT
THEREON
The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation of other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Board’s Report including Annexures to the Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report & Other Reports but does not
include the standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
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 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. We have nothing to report in this regard.
RESPONSIBILITY 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 Companies Act, 2013
("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 and cash flows of the Company in accordance
with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including
Accounting Standards specified under Section 133 of the Act, read the
Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 as amended.
This responsibility also includes the maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the provision of the Act for
safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and
detecting the 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 control, 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.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, Management & 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
management or the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the
Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to
do so.
The Management of the Company and Board of Directors are 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)0) 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 the Management & Board of Directors.
• 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
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 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.
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 the current period and are therefore the key audit matters.
We describe these matters in our auditors' 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.
