In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”), in the manner so required and give a true and fair view, in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended (“Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2023, the profit and total comprehensive income, its cash flows and changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 (ICAI), together with the independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s 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 financial statements.

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Litigations - Contingencies

Audit Procedures

The Company has litigations in respect of certain direct and indirect tax and other litigations. In this regard, the Company has recognised provisions and has disclosed contingent liabilities (to the extent not provided for) as at March 31, 2023.

Significant management judgment is required to assess these matters and to determine the probability of material outflow of economic resources and whether a provision should be recognised or a disclosure should be made. Where considered relevant, the management judgement is also supported with legal advice in these cases.

We focused on this area as the ultimate outcome of matters are uncertain and the positions taken by the management are based on the application of judgement, related expert advice including those relating to interpretation of laws and regulations.

Refer to Note 2(i)(c) and 35A to the Financial Statements.

Our audit procedures involved the following:

• testing the effectiveness of controls around the recording and re-assessment of contingent liabilities;

• discussing with management the status and recent developments of these matters, including their views on the likely outcome of each litigation and claim;

• performing our assessment of the underlying calculations supporting the provisions or other disclosures made in the financial statements;

• evaluating the management’s assessment of these matters and monitoring changes in the disputes with reference to subsequent orders passed, in order to establish the appropriateness of the provisions / disclosures;

• Obtaining information’s from the Company’s tax consultants to confirm the facts and circumstances and assessment of the likely outcome.

• evaluating management’s assessment of the matters that are not disclosed, as the probability of material outflow is considered to be remote by the management; and

• assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures.

Provision for Expected Credit Losses (ECL) of trade receivables

Audit Procedures

Our audit procedures involved the following:

The Company determines the provision for credit losses based on the Company’s historical observed default rates which are negligible over the years. The Company considered current and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Company deals with, to calibrate the provision matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. While determining expected credit loss, the Company has also considered credit reports and other related credit information for its customers to estimate the probability of default in future.

We focused on this area as the Company has exercised significant judgment in determining the ECL and accordingly has not provided for any such allowance for credit losses as at the balance sheet date.

Refer to Note 2(ii)(f) to the Financial Statements.

• testing the effectiveness of controls over the development of the methodology for the provision for expected credit losses;

• discussing with management about their consideration of the current and estimated future economic conditions;

• evaluating the completeness and accuracy of information used in the estimation of probability of default by the customers;

• performing our assessment of the past experience supporting the non-provisioning or other disclosures made in the financial statements;

• verifying subsequent collection from the customers after the balance sheet date, with respect to the outstanding trade receivables, in order to establish the appropriateness for not making the provisions; and

• assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures.

Information Systems and Controls

During the year on November 3, 2022, the Company has upgraded to a new ERP System, SAP HANA as its financial and operational reporting system from the erstwhile system SAP ECC. All the information has been migrated from ECC to HANA on the date of implementation of the new system. We consider this activity as a key audit matter due to its significance considering the voluminous financial and operational transactions processed through the system which has a direct impact on the financial statements for the year ending on March 31, 2023.

Refer to Note 49 to the Financial Statements.

Audit Procedures

Our audit approach involved the following procedures:

• Obtain the understanding from the management regarding various procedures followed for implementing the new system with respect to migration of data, process and documentation for accounting of transaction under SAP HANA. This includes proper authorization, completeness, accuracy and manual controls put in place in the process of implementation.

• Tested the operating effectiveness of key internal financial controls over the new system implementation, which includes the review of project implementation plan; defined roles and responsibilities of the project and authorization for the ‘Go Live’ process.

• Obtained User Acceptance Testing (‘UAT’) sign-off to ensure that the implemented system was configured in line with requirements of various user departments of the company.

• We have also referred the reports issued by the Internal Auditors to the extent of the areas covered by them for such migration.

• We have substantively tested the migrated balances, for completeness and accuracy as on November 1, 2023 from old system to the new system.

• Through sample testing we have tested the key reports generated from the SAP HANA system, and found that IT controls are adequate.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Report on Corporate Governance, Shareholder information and 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 financial statements, and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the 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.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act, with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company, in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting, unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an adequate internal financial controls system 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 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 financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 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.

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”), in the manner so required and give a true and fair view, in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of the Act, read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended (“Ind AS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2021, the profit and total comprehensive income, its cash flows and changes in equity for the year ended on that date.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Act (SAs). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 (ICAI), together with the independence requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI’s 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 financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor Response

1

Litigations - Contingencies

The Company has litigations in respect of certain direct and indirect tax and other litigations. In this regard, the Company has recognised provisions and has disclosed contingent liabilities (to the extent not provided for) as at March 31, 2021.

Significant management judgment is required to assess these matters and to determine the probability of material outflow of economic resources and whether a provision should be recognised or a disclosure should be made. Where considered relevant, the management judgement is also supported with legal advice in these cases.

We focused on this area as the ultimate outcome of matters are uncertain and the positions taken by the management are based on the application of judgement, related expert advice including those relating to interpretation of laws and regulations.

Refer to Note 27 to the Financial Statements.

Audit Procedures

Our audit procedures involved the following:

• testing the effectiveness of controls around the recording and reassessment of contingent liabilities;

• discussing with management the status and recent developments of these matters, including their views on the likely outcome of each litigation and claim;

• performing our assessment of the underlying calculations supporting the provisions or other disclosures made in the financial statements;

• evaluating the management’s assessment of these matters and monitoring changes in the disputes with reference to subsequent orders passed, in order to establish the appropriateness of the provisions / disclosures;

• Obtaining information’s from the Company’s tax consultants (internal/ external) to confirm the facts and circumstances and assessment of the likely outcome.

• evaluating management’s assessment of the matters that are not disclosed, as the probability of material outflow is considered to be remote by the management; and

• assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures.

Inventory Valuation

Due to the lockdown imposed by the Government on account of COVID-19, it was not possible for us to carry out the physical verification of inventories at some of the locations as at March 31, 2021.

However for those locations the management has duly conducted the physical inventory counting internally as at the year end and provided to us certified physical counting sheets for the purpose of Inventory Valuation.

We determined the above area as a Key Audit Matter due to the materiality of the inventory figure appearing in the Financial Statements.

Audit Procedures

Our audit procedures involved the following:

• performing alternative audit procedures to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the existence and condition of inventory;

• obtaining and evaluating the adequacy of the inventory physical verification instructions prepared and issued by the management to determine if the instructions provided were appropriate and comprehensive;

• evaluating the control design in respect of the inventory verification process;

• testing the effectiveness of controls around the recording of inventory during the period of the audit;

• ensuring that such controls encompass the processes around purchase and sales which eventually impact the stock balance held at the end of the reporting period;

• verifying the documentation supporting purchases and subsequent sale of inventory items on a sample basis;

• ascertaining that these procedures indirectly provide evidence that stock balance which was not physically verified actually existed as on the date to enable subsequent sales and indirectly support and corroborate the assertion of existence;

• where the Company has inventory under the custody and control of a third party, obtaining direct confirmations from the respective third parties; and

• obtaining audit evidence regarding the location and condition of the inventory, including documentary records about purchases/sales in case of inventories in transit.

Provision for Expected Credit Losses (ECL) of

Audit Procedures

trade receivables

Our audit procedures involved the following:

The Company determines the provision for credit losses based on the Company’s historical observed default rates which are negligible over the years. The Company considered current and anticipated future economic conditions relating to industries the Company deals with, to calibrate the provision matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. While determining expected credit loss, the Company has also considered credit reports and other related credit information for its customers to estimate the probability of default in future and has taken into account estimates of possible effect from the pandemic relating to

• testing the effectiveness of controls over the development of the methodology for the provision for expected credit losses;

• discussing with management about their consideration of the current and estimated future economic conditions;

• evaluating the completeness and accuracy of information used in the estimation of probability of default by the customers;

• performing our assessment of the past experience supporting the nonprovisioning or other disclosures made in the financial statements;

• verifying subsequent collection from the customers after the balance sheet date, with respect to the outstanding trade receivables, in order to establish the appropriateness for not making the provisions; and

COVID-19.

• assessing the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures.

We focused on this area as the Company has exercised significant judgment in determining the ECL and accordingly has not provided for any such allowance for credit losses as at the balance sheet date.

Refer to Note 2(g) to the Financial Statements.

Other Information

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Report on Corporate Governance, Shareholder information and 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 financial statements, and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the 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.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act, with respect to the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, total comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company, in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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 financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting, unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 financial controls relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an adequate internal financial controls system 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 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 financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 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.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

(a) We have sought and obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were necessary for the purposes of our audit.

Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Alkyl Amines Chemical Limited (‘the Company”) as at March 31, 2018, in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company, considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of standalone financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of standalone financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial Statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according to the explanation given to us, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2018, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company’s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls system over financial reporting.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditure of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system over financial reporting and such internal financial controls over financial reporting were operating effectively as at March 31, 2017, based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note.
