• The accuracy and completeness of the accounting
records, and

information.

The Board reviews the effectiveness of controls
documented as part of IFC framework, and take
necessary corrective actions wherever weaknesses
are identified as a result of such reviews. These have
been designed to provide reasonable assurance
about recording and providing reliable financial and
operational information, complying with applicable
statutes, safeguarding assets from unauthorised use,
executing transactions with proper authorisation and
ensuring compliance of Corporate Policies.

Based on this evaluation, no significant events had
come to notice during the year that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our

controls have been put in place wherever necessary.
