Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assure nee about whether the standalone financial siatements as a whole are Tnee from materiel misstatement, whether due lo 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 j1 exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably ba 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;
Idenlify 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, in terniona I omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control,
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant lo 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 interna] financial coni rots system m 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 managemenl'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, lo 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 condJIions mey cause the Company to cease lo 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 financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the financial statements may be influenced We consider quantitative materiality a nd qualitative factors in (I) plan ning (he scope of our audit work and in aval uati ng the results of our work; and | ; i) to evaluate theeWect of any identified misstatements m thefinancia! statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, Ihe planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies In Internal control that we Idenlify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence. and (o communicate with them all relationships and other matters lhat may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged wilh governance, we determine those malters lhat were of most significance in (he audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe Ihese matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare d rcumsts nca s, we determine that a matter should not be TOmmu nicated i n qu r report beca use the ad ver&fi consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public inieresl benefits of such communication.
