-
- We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the 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 is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
-
- Attention is drawn to the fact that the figures for the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 as reported in these financial results are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full previous financial year and the published year to date figures up to the third quarter of the previous financial year. The figures up to the end of the third quarter of previous financial year had only been reviewed and not subjected to audit.
