We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified undersection 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards arefurther described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statementssection of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code ofEthics issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethicalrequirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions ofthe Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethicalresponsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics. We believe thatthe audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for ouropinion.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of mostsignificance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters wereaddressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in formingour opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of theCompanies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these standalone financialstatements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance,(changes in equity)i and cash flows of the Company in accordance with1 the accountingprinciples generally accepted in India, including the accounting Standards specified under
section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accountingrecords in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of theCompany and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection andapplication of appropriate implementation and maintenance of accounting policies; makingjudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation andmaintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively forensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparationand presentation of the financial statement that give a true and fair view and are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company'sability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to goingconcern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intendsto liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financialreporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as awhole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue anauditor'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 amaterial misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and areconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected toinfluence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts anddisclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor'sjudgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of financialstatements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditorconsiders internal financial control relevant to the Company's preparation of the financialstatements, that give a true and fair view, in order to design audit procedures that areappropriate in circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness ofaccounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by theCompany's Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financialstatements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriateto provide a basis for our audit opinion on financial Statements.
