Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAS) specified under section l43(lO) ofthe Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act"). Our responsibilities under those SAs are further described in the Auditor '.9 Re.$p0nsibilifie.s for the Audit Q/"the Financial Results section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the annual financial results.

These annual financial results have been prepared on the basis of the annual financial statements. The Company's Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation ofthese financial results that give a true and fair view of the net profit and other comprehensive income and other financial iiiformation of the Company in accordance with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 ofthe Act read with rele-'a.r:t rules _' i- Regulation 33 ofthe Listing Regulations.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions ofthe Act for safeguarding ofthe assets ofthe Company and forpreventing and detectingfrauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the annual financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the annual financial results, the Management and the Board of Directors are 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit ofthe Financial Results

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual financial results as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audit0r's report 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. Misstatements 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 decisions ofusers taken on the basis ofthese annual financial results.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • 0 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatenient ofthe financial results, whether due to fraud or error, design and perfonn 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.
  • o Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the c-ircumstances. Under Section 143(3) (i) ofthe Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion through a separate report on the complete set of financial statements on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statenients in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls,

  • 0 Conctude on the appropriateness oi' the Management and Board of Directors use ofthe going concern basis oi' 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 Coinpany'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 results or. if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. I-Iowever, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
