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

with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit 01
otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, tve

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Sec 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,
changes in equity and cash flows 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 tor 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 opetating
effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting lecoids, relevant to the
preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are tree
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements. Board of Directors 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 Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditoi s repoit
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. Misstatement 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 decision of users taken
on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance SAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
a) 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.
b) 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) (i) of the Companies
Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate
internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating
effectiveness of such controls.
c) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness ot accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management.
d) 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 financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to
modify our opinion. Our conclusion is 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.
e) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the standalone financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions
and event in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with those charges 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 the all relationships
and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where
applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicate with those charged with governance,
we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of
the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s
lepor; 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 out we the public interest
benefits of such communication.
