the cash flows statement and the statement of changes in equity for the year ended 31st

policies and other explanatory information.
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to

fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state
of affairs of the Company as at March 31, '24, its Profit/Loss (including other comprehensive
income), its cash flows and the changes in equity for the period ended 31st March, '24.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under
section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Our responsibilities under those Standards are
further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements' section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with
the 'Code of Ethics' issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the
provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the Code of Ethics.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statement.
Key Audit Matter
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most
significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements for the financial year ended
March 31, '24. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the standalone
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a
separate opinion on these matters.
Information Other than the financial statements and Auditor's report thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information.
The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and
Analysis, Board's Report including Annexures to Board's Report, Business Responsibility
Report, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does not include the
standalone financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and
we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone financial statements, our responsibility is to
read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is
materially inconsistent with the 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
of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this
regard.
Responsibility of Management and those charged with governance for Standalone 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 Standalone financial
statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance
including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in
accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian
accounting Standards (Standalone) 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 the standalone financial statement that give a true and
fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, Management 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 the 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 also responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting
process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial
statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, 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 standalone
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 standalone 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. Under section 143(3)(i) of the
Companies Act, 2013, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the
company has adequate internal financial controls system with reference to financial
statements 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
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 financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
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.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those
matters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements for
the financial year ended 31st March '24 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe
these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about
the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not
be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
