The Companyâs board of directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information
comprises the information included in the Annual Report including Annexure to Boardâs Report, but does not include
the accompanying financial statements and our auditorâs report thereon.
Our opinion on the accompanying 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 accompanying financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistent with the financial
statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our 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.
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act,
2013 (âthe Actâ) with respect to the preparation and presentation of these financial statements that give a true and
fair view of the financial position, financial performance 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 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, management is responsible for assessing the Companyâs 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.
The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
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 auditorâs 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 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 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.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of managementâs use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exist related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Companyâs ability to continue as a going concern.
⢠If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorâs 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 auditorâs report. However, future
events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.
⢠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.
We communicate with the board of directors 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 board of directors 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.
