Other Information - Board of Directors'' Report
A. The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of its Board Report
which comprises various information required under section 134(3) of the Companies Act 2013 but does
not include the Ind AS financial statements and our auditorâs report thereon.
Our opinion on the Ind AS financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance/conclusion thereon.
B. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
Ind AS financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement in this
other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Management''s Responsibility for the Ind AS financial statements
The Company''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the
Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation of these Ind AS financial statements
that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, and cash flows of the
Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the
Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes
maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for
safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other
irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and
estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of
adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of Ind AS
financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Ind AS financial statements, the Board of Directors is 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 management either intends
to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s responsibilities for the Audit of the Ind AS financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor''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 of users taken on the basis of these Ind AS financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
⢠Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, design and perform 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.
⢠Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal Financial control systems in place and the
operating effectiveness of such controls.
⢠Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates and related disclosures made by management
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of management''s use of the going concern basis of 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 Company''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 Ind AS financial statements 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. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to
cease to continue as a going concern.
⢠Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Ind AS financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the Ind AS financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Ind AS financial statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of
the Ind AS financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and
qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the results of our work;
and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Ind AS financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all
relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and
where applicable, related safeguards.
