Independent Auditor's Review Report on Consolidated Unaudited Quarterly and year to date financial results of Tanla Platforms Limited (Formerly known as Tanla Solutions Limited) pursuant to the Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended

The Board of Directors

Tanla Platforms Limited

(Formerly known as Tanla Solutions Limited)

    1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of consolidated unaudited financial results of Tanla Platforms Limited (Formerly known as Tanla Solutions Limited) ('the Holding Company'), 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 itsassociate and joint venture for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 and the year to-date results for the period from April01, 2020 to December 31, 2020 ('the Statement'), being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 as amended ('the Regulation').

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 'Interim Financial Reporting' ("Ind AS 34"), prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with relevant rules issued thereunder and other recognized accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Statement based on ourreview.
    1. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagement (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 financial results are free of material misstatement. A review 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 auditconducted 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 the SEBI under Regulation 33 (8) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended, to the extent applicable.
