Limited review report on unaudited quarterly consolidated financial results of Birlasoft Limited under Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015

To

Board of Directors of Birlasoft Limited

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of unaudited consolidated financial results of Birlasoft Limited ("the Parent") and its subsidiaries (the Parent and its subsidiaries together referred to as "the Group"), for the quarter ended 30 June 2021 ("the Statement"), being submitted by the Parent pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended (`Listing Regulations').
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Parent's management and approved by the Parent's Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34 "interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. 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. 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.

We also performed procedures in accordance with the circular issued by SEBI under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.

    1. The statement includes the results of the following entities:
    • a. Birlasoft Limited (Parent)

Subsidiaries

  • b. Birlasoft Inc.
  • c. Birlasoft GmBH
  • d. Birlasoft (UK) Limited
  • e. Enable Path LLC

    1. Attention is drawn to the fact that the figures for the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 as reported in these fmancial 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.
    1. Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above, 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 Standard and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.
    1. The Statement includes the interim financial information of two subsidiaries which have not been reviewed, whose interim financial information reflect total revenue of INR 246.22 million, total net loss after tax and total comprehensive loss of INR 0.64 million for the quarter ended 30 June 2021 as considered in the Statement. According to the information and explanations given to us by the management, these interim financial information are not material to the Group.

Our conclusion on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter.

Notes :

1 The Chairman and CEO & Managing Director of the Company have been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by IND AS 108, "Operating Segments." The Chairman of the Company evaluates the segments based on their revenue growth and operating income.

2 Assets and liabilities are not identified to any reportable segment, since these are used interchangeably across segments and consequently, the management believes that it is not practicable or meaningful to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities.

Limited review report on unaudited quarterly standalone financial results of Birlasoft Limited under Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015

To Board of Directors of Birlasoft Limited

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of unaudited standalone financial results of Birlasoft Limited ("the Company") for the quarter ended 30 June 2021 ("the Statement").
    1. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company's management and approved by the Board of Directors, has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Indian Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. Our responsibility is to issue a report 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 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.
    1. 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.
