Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Standalone Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended
Review Report to The Board of Directors ITC Limited
-
- We have reviewed the accompanying statement of unaudited standalone financial results of ITC Limited (the "Company") for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and year to date from April 01, 2019 to September 30, 2019 (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"). Attention is drawn to the fact that the statement of cash flows for the corresponding period from April 01, 2018 to September 30, 2018, as reported in these unaudited standalone financial results have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, but have not been subjected to review.
-
- 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 thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
-
- 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.
-
- Based on our review conducted as 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 Standards (`lnd AS') specified under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 as amended, read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other recognised accounting practices and policies 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.

Independent Auditor's Review Report on the Quarterly and Year to Date Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of the Company Pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended
Review Report to The Board of Directors ITC Limited
-
- We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results of ITC Limited (the "Holding Company") and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as "the Group"), and its share of the net profit after tax and total comprehensive income of its associates and joint ventures for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and year to date from April 1, 2019 to September 30, 2019 (the "Statement") attached herewith, being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (the "Listing Regulations"). Attention is drawn to the fact that the consolidated figures for the corresponding quarter and half year ended September 30, 2018 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the corresponding period from April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018, as reported in these unaudited consolidated financial results have been approved by the Holding Company's Board of Directors but have not been subjected to review.
-
- This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Holding Company's Management and approved by the Holding 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 thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on our review.
-
- 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.
We also performed procedures in accordance with the Circular No. CIR/CFD/CMD1/44/2019 dated March 29, 2019 issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations, to the extent applicable.
- The Statement includes the results of the entities as mentioned in Annexure 1.

-
- Based on our review conducted and procedures performed as stated in paragraph 3 above and based on the consideration of the review report of other auditor, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with 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.
-
- We did not review the interim financial results and other financial information of four subsidiaries, whose interim financial results reflect total assets of Rs. 933 crores as at September 30, 2019, total revenues of Rs. 510 crores and Rs. 1013 crores, total net profit after tax of Rs. 60 crores and Rs. 103 crores, total comprehensive income of Rs. 65 crores and Rs. 106 crores, for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from April 1, 2019 to September 30, 2019, respectively, and net cash outflow of Rs. 19 crores for the period from April 1, 2019 to September 30, 2019, included in the consolidated unaudited financial results, as considered in the consolidated unaudited financial results. This interim financial result has been reviewed by other auditor, whose report has been furnished to us by the management and our conclusion on the Statement, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures in respect of these subsidiaries is based solely on the report of the other auditor and procedures performed by us as stated in Paragraph 3 above.
Our conclusion on the Statement is not modified in respect of the above matter.
- The Ind AS consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended March 31, 2019, were audited by predecessor auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on May 13, 2019.
