the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) 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 made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We believe that

opinion on the standalone financial statements.

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other
information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Board’s
Report including Annexures to Board’s Report, Business Responsibility Report, Corporate Governance
and Shareholder’s Information, 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 or 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 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.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Standalone
Financial Statements
The accompanying standalone financial statements have been approved by the Company’s Board of
Directors. 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 and presentation of these
standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance including other total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the
Company in accordance with 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 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 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 management either intends to liquidate
the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Company’s Board of Directors/Management is also responsible for overseeing the Company’s
financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibility 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 Standards on Auditing 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 Standards on Auditing, specified under Section 143(10) of the
Act, 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) of the Act, we are also responsible
for expressing an opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system
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 Board of Director’s/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.
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.
