Review Report to The Board of Directors Bharat Road Network Limited

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of Unaudited Standalone Financial Results of Bharat Road Network Limited (the "Company") for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and year to date April 01, 2021 to September 30, 2021 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the "Listing Regulations").
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company's Management and approved by the Company's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34, (Ind AS 34) "Interim Financial Reporting" prescribed under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended, read with relevant rules issued there under and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
    1. Basis for Qualified Conclusion

We refer note 4 of the financial results, where the Company has not recognized interest on Rs. 7,000 lakhs from July 01, 2019 onwards which is not in compliance of Ind AS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' read with Ind AS 109 'Financial Instruments'. Due to this, loss before tax of the company for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 and for the period from April 01, 2021 to September 30, 2021 has been understated by Rs. 224.96 lakhs and Rs. 447.47 lakhs respectively and the current liabilities as at September 30, 2021 has been understated by Rs. 2012.40 lakhs.

  1. Based on our review conducted as above, except for the impact of the matter as described in the basis for qualified conclusion paragraph, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the aforesaid Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS') specified under section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles, generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.
