To The Members of Delphi World Money Limited Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements Opinion
We have audited the Financial Statements of Delphi World Money Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "Financial Statements").
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 Actâ) in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit ofthe Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA") specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended ("the Actâ). 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 ("ICAIâ) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules 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 obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Financial Statements.
Emphasis of Matter Paragraph
We draw attention to:
a. Note 41 of the standalone financial statements, which describes the adjudication orders issued by the Directorate of Enforcement (ED), imposing a monetary penalty of ^329.07 million on the Company and ^35.20 million on its Principal Officer for non-compliance with certain provisions of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA). As stated in the note, the said matters pertain to the period prior to the acquisition of the Company by EbixCash World Money Limited under the Share Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2018, and are covered under the indemnities provided by the erstwhile promoters. The Company has filed appeals before the Hon''ble Appellate Tribunal under SAFEMA and has made a pre-deposit of 15% of the penalty amount, in compliance with the Tribunal''s direction. Based on legal advice and the indemnification terms, management believes that there would be no financial impact on the Company.
b. Note 56.2 of the standalone financial statements, which describes the status of Inter-Corporate Deposits ("ICDsâ) aggregating to ^1,332.11 million as of March 31, 2025, extended by the Company to group entities. A substantial portion of the ICDs is outstanding from a group company with weak financial strength. The recoverability of these balances is dependent on the continued financial support from EbixCash Limited, the intermediary holding company. During the year, one of the borrower companies, Ebix Smartclass Educational Services Private Limited, fully repaid its outstanding ICD balance. Based on this development and management''s assessment of the financial position of EbixCash Limited, no provision has been considered necessary in the financial statements.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters (''KAM'') 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 |
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter |
|
1. Revenue recognition: |
|
|
The Company has revenue from the Sale and Purchase of Foreign exchange products and Inward & Outward remittances. Revenue is measured based on consideration received / receivable for services. Revenue from Foreign Exchange products, Inward & Outward Remittance and related services is a key audit matter due to the exposure to the risk of fraud due to the involvement of significant amounts of cash & cash equivalents. Additionally, the Company relies heavily on its IT system to record, process and report a high volume of revenue transactions and their integration into the back-office system. |
Principal Audit Procedures Our audit procedures included: ¦ Assessing the accounting policies with respect to revenue recognition to be in compliance with the applicable accounting standards; ¦ Evaluating the design, testing the implementation and operating effectiveness of the Company''s internal controls over recognition of revenue, along with the effectiveness of Information Technology controls built into the automated processes; ¦ Assessment of internal controls on the handling of cash, including cash verifications performed by the management, and performing cash count procedures on a sample basis; |
|
Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter |
|
The audit approach relies on the effectiveness of automated controls of these applications and controls around the interface of systems. |
¦ Selecting samples of revenue transactions and testing the sample for existence and accuracy; ¦ Testing the revenue based on agreements, where applicable, and ¦ Assessing journal entries posted to revenue to identify unusual items not already covered by us. Based on our audit procedures, we did not identify any evidence of a material misstatement in the revenue recognised for the year in the financial statements. |
|
2. Contingent Liabilities- Contingencies related to Regulatory, Direct and Indirect tax matters | |
|
|
The Company has a number of litigations pending, related to Regulatory, Direct and Indirect tax matters, which are under dispute with various authorities as more fully described in Note 41 to the Financial statements. This is identified as a Key Audit Matter because of the involvement of significant estimates, a degree of management''s judgement for estimating the amount to be disclosed as contingent liability and the possibility of management bias. |
Principal Audit Procedures: We have obtained an understanding of the Company''s internal instructions and procedures with respect to the estimation and disclosure of contingent liabilities and have adopted the following audit procedures: ¦ Understanding and testing the designs and operating effectiveness of controls as established by management for obtaining all the relevant information for pending litigations; ¦ Holding discussions with management for any material developments and the latest status of legal matters; ¦ Reviewed the expertsâ note and/ or legal opinions from independent legal counsel obtained by the management with respect to certain contentious matters; ¦ Examining management''s judgements and assessments of whether provisions are required, considering the managementâs assessment of those matters that are not disclosed, as the probability of material outflow is considered to be remote; and ¦ Verified the adequacy of disclosures in the financial statements in this respect. Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and disclosures of contingent liabilities are considered to be adequate and reasonable. |
|
3. Assessment of Impairment of Inter-Corporate Deposits (ICD) given to the Group companies | |
|
|
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has outstanding InterCorporate Deposits (ICDs) amounting to ^1,332.11 million extended to its group companies. A significant portion of this balance is outstanding from a group company with weak financial strength. During the year, one of the other group companies has fully repaid its outstanding ICD balance, indicating positive recovery and progress. The recoverability of the remaining ICDs is dependent on the continued financial support from EbixCash Limited, the intermediary holding company. Considering the materiality of the outstanding balances, the financial condition of the borrower, and the reliance placed on support from EbixCash Limited, the assessment of recoverability of the ICDs has been considered a Key Audit Matter |
We performed the following key audit procedures to assess managementâs estimation of the recoverable amounts of intercorporate deposits provided to Group Companies: ¦ Evaluated management''s identification and assessment of impairment indicators, including the financial condition of the borrower and developments during the year. ¦ Verified the settlement of the ICD balances by group companies through review of bank statements and supporting documents. ¦ Management evaluation of the recoverability of loans granted to its Group companies; ¦ Assessed the comfort/support letter issued by EbixCash Limited in favour of the Company. ¦ Reviewed the financial strength and revenue-generating ability of EbixCash Limited to assess its capacity to provide support to the borrower group companies. ¦ Discussed with group management the basis of their assessment of recoverability. ¦ Evaluated the appropriateness and adequacy of related disclosures made in the financial statements in accordance with the applicable accounting framework. Based on the above procedures performed, we did not identify any evidence of material misstatement on the value of ICD in the financial statements. |
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Report on Corporate Governance and Director''s Report including Annexures to Director''s Report, and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the Financial Statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The aforesaid report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s report.
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 identified above when it becomes available 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.
When we read the Company''s annual report, and if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and shall take appropriate actions, if required.
Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Financial Statements
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 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 judgements 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, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Companyâs 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.
Those Board of Directors are 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 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 Annual 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 controls.
⢠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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to the Standalone Financial statement 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 the Management and Board of Directors.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors'' 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 appropriateness of this assumption. 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 Annual Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Annual Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in the aggregate, makes it probable
that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the 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 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.
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.

We have audited the Financial Statements of Delphi World Money Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2024, the Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), the Statement of Changes in Equity and Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "Financial Statements").
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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, and profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA") specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended ("the Act"). 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 ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules thereunder, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAIâs Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Financial Statements.
Emphasis of Matter Paragraph We draw attention to:
a) note no. 39 (II) (a) of Financial Statements, which refers to the adjudication orders issued by the Directorate of Enforcement (''ED''), imposing a total monetary penalty of ^329.07 million on the Company and ^35.20 million on its Principal Officer for non-compliance with certain provisions of Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA, 1999). The said matters have arisen, related to the period, prior to the acquisition of the Company by the current promoters, i.e. EbixCash World Money Limited from the erstwhile promoters of the Company under the Share Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2018 and is covered by the indemnities given by the erstwhile Promoters under the Share Purchase Agreement and therefore, the liability for the payments, if any, shall be reimbursed by the erstwhile Promoters of the Company The matters are sub-judice and indemnities have been provided by the erstwhile Promoters and the Company believes there would not be any financial impact on the Company.
b) note no. 54 of Financial Statements, regarding Inter Corporate Deposits ("ICDs") of an amount ^1,637.43 million as of March 31, 2024, given by the company to some of its group companies. Two of the borrower group companies have incurred continued operating losses and have negative net worth. The collectability of the ICD is dependent on the support provided by the India
holding Company i.e. EbixCash Limited (i.e. intermediary holding company in India and referred to as "ECL") and Ebix, Inc (i.e. ultimate holding company). The Management is of the opinion, that even though Ebix Inc. has filed for voluntary petitions to commence proceedings under Chapter 11 (the "Chapter 11 Cases") of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), Ebix, Inc. and EbixCash Limited have adequate revenue-generating assets to provide financial support to these borrower companies.
Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
Key audit matters (âRAMâ) 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 |
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter |
|
1. Revenue recognition: |
|
|
The Company has revenue from the Sale and Purchase of Foreign exchange products and Inward & Outward remittances. Revenue is measured based on consideration received / receivable for services. Revenue from Foreign Exchange products, Inward & Outward Remittance and related services are a key audit matter due to the exposure to the risk of fraud due to the involvement of significant amounts of cash & cash equivalent. Additionally, the Company relies heavily on its IT system to record, process and report a high volume of revenue transactions and their integration into the back-office system. The audit approach relies on the effectiveness of automated controls of these applications and controls around the interface of systems. |
Principal Audit Procedures Our audit procedures performed included: ¦ Assessing the accounting policies with respect of revenue recognition to be in compliance with the applicable accounting standards; ¦ Evaluating the design, testing the implementation and operating effectiveness of the Companyâs internal controls over recognition of revenue along with the effectiveness of Information Technology controls built into the automized processes; ¦ Assessment of internal controls on the handling of cash including cash verifications performed by the management and performing cash count procedures on a sample basis; ¦ Selecting samples of revenue transactions and testing the sample for existence and accuracy; ¦ Testing the revenue based on agreements, where applicable; and ¦ Assessing journal entries posted to revenue to identify unusual items not already covered by us. Based on our audit procedures we did not identify any evidence of material misstatement in the revenue recognized for the year in the financial statements. |

2. Contingent Liabilities- Contingencies related to Regulatory, Direct and Indirect tax matters |
|
|
The Company has a number of litigations pending, related to Regulatory, Direct and Indirect tax matters which are under dispute with various authorities as more fully described in Note 39 to the Financial statements. This is identified as Key Audit Matter because of the involvement of significant estimates, a degree of management''s judgement for estimating the amount to be disclosed as contingent liability and possibilities of management bias. |
Principal Audit Procedures: We have obtained an understanding of the Company''s internal instructions and procedures with respect to the estimation and disclosure of contingent liabilities and adopted the following audit procedures: ¦ Understanding and Testing the designs and operating effectiveness of controls as established by management for obtaining all the relevant information for pending litigations; ¦ Holding discussions with management for any material developments and the latest status of legal matters; ¦ Reviewed the experts'' note and/ or legal opinions from independent legal counsel obtained by the management with respect to certain contentious matters; ¦ Examining management''s judgements and assessments of whether provisions are required considering the management''s assessment of those matters that are not disclosed as the probability of material outflow is considered to be remote; and ¦ Verified the adequacy of disclosures in the financial statements in this respect. Based on the above procedures performed, the estimation and disclosures of contingent liabilities are considered to be adequate and reasonable. |
|
3. Assessment of Impairment of Inter Corporate Deposits (ICD) given to the Group companies |
|
|
Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter |
|
There are Inter Corporate Deposits ("ICDsâ) of an amount 11637.43 million as of March 31, 2024, given by the company to some of its group companies. As of March 31, 2024, impairment indicators have been identified for two of the borrower group companies that have incurred continued operating losses and have negative net worth. Further, Ebix Inc. has filed for voluntary petitions to commence proceedings under Chapter 11 (the "Chapter 11 Casesâ) of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Codeâ). Considering the petition filed by Ebix Inc. the assessment of the collectability of ICD has been considered as a Key audit matter. |
We performed the following key audit procedures to assess management''s estimation of the recoverable amounts of inter-corporate deposits provided to Group Companies: 1 Assessed the information used to identify impairment indicators, including the financial conditions, and market conditions in which these entities operate; 2 Management evaluation of the recoverability of loans granted to its Group companies; 3 Comfort letter issued by the India holding Company i.e. EbixCash Limited (i.e. intermediary holding company in India). 4 Evaluated disclosures made in the Financial Statements for compliance with the requirements of applicable accounting standards. Based on the above procedures performed, we did not identify any evidence of material misstatement on the value of ICD in the financial statements. |
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Report on Corporate Governance and Director''s Report including Annexures to Director''s Report, and Shareholder''s Information, but does not include the Financial Statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The aforesaid report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s report.
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 identified above when it becomes available 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.
When we read the Companyâs annual report and if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and shall take appropriate actions, if required.
The Companyâs Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation and presentation of these Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of
the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 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 judgements 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, 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.
Those Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Companyâs financial reporting process.
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 Annual 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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to the Standalone Financial statement 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 the Management and Board of Directors.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors'' 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 appropriateness of this assumption. 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 Annual Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Annual Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Financial Statements that, individually or in the aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the 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 financial statements.

Delphi World Money Limited
Report on the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the standalone financial statements of Delphi World Money Limited (erstwhile EbixCash World Money India Limited) ("the Company"), which comprise the Standalone Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2023, the Standalone Statement of Profit and Loss (including other comprehensive income), Standalone Statement of Changes in Equity and Standalone Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes to the standalone financial statements, including a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (hereinafter referred to as "Standalone Financial Statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid Standalone 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 accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2023, and profit (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis of Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing ("SA") specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, as amended ("the Act"). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the financial results 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 ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules 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 obtained by us is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Standalone Financial Statements.
Emphasis of Matter Paragraph
a) We draw attention to note no. 40(II)(a) of Standalone Financial Statements, which refers to the Order by the Directorate of Enforcement (''ED'') Southern Regional Office, imposing a monetary penalty of 1 362.22 million on the Company and its Principal Officer for non-compliance with certain provisions of FEMA, 1999. The said matter has arisen, related to the period, prior to the acquisition of the Company by the current promoters, i.e. EbixCash World Money Limited from the erstwhile promoters of the Company under the Share Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2018, and is covered by the indemnities given by the erstwhile Promoters under the Share Purchase Agreement and therefore, the liability for the payments, if any, shall be reimbursed by the erstwhile Promoters of the Company. Also, the company believes that there are good grounds to set aside the adjudication order, on appeal and therefore there would not be any financial impact on the Company.
b) We draw attention to note no. 40(II)(b) of Standalone Financial Statements, regarding non-compliance with regulations related to Minimum Public Shareholding (MPS) and penalty being levied by both the stock exchanges where the Company is listed. The Company has started assessing various methods prescribed by SEBI for achieving the Minimum Public Shareholding requirement and will take the required steps to ensure compliance.
Our opinion is not modified on these matters.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters (''KAM'') are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the current period. 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. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.
|
Key Audit Matter |
How our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter |
|
|
1. |
Revenue recognition: The Company has revenue from the Sale and Purchase of Foreign Exchange products and Inward & Outward remittances which are measured based on consideration received/ receivable for services. Revenue from Foreign Exchange products, Inward & Outward Remittance and related services are a key audit matter due to the exposure to the risk of fraud due to the involvement of significant amounts of cash & cash equivalent. Additionally, the Company relies heavily on its IT system to record, process, and report a high volume of revenue transactions and their integration into the back-office system. The audit approach relies on the effectiveness of automated controls of these applications and controls around the interface of systems. |
Principal Audit Procedures ⢠Assessing the accounting policies in respect of revenue recognition to follow the applicable accounting standards; ⢠Evaluating the design, testing the implementation, and operating effectiveness of the Company''s internal controls over recognition of revenue along with the effectiveness of Information Technology controls built into the automized processes; ⢠Assessment of internal controls on the handling of cash including cash verifications performed by the management team and performing cash count procedures on a sample basis; ⢠Selecting samples of revenue transactions and testing the sample for existence and accuracy; ⢠Testing the revenue based on agreements, where applicable; and ⢠Assessing journal entries posted to revenue to identify unusual items not already covered by us. |

2. |
Contingent Liabilities- Contingencies related to Regulatory, Direct and Indirect tax matters The Company has several litigations pending, related to Regulatory, Direct, and Indirect tax matters which are under dispute with various authorities as more fully described in Note 40 to the Standalone financial statements. This is identified as Key Audit Matter because of the involvement of significant estimates, a degree of management''s judgement for estimating the amount to be disclosed as contingent liability and possibilities of management bias. |
Principal Audit Procedures: ⢠Understood and evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls, as established by management, around obtaining the relevant information for the pending litigations, assessment, estimation and disclosure of contingent liabilities. ⢠Holding discussions with management for any material developments and the latest status of litigations; ⢠Examining management''s judgements and assessments of whether provisions are required considering the management''s assessment of those matters that are not disclosed as the probability of material outflow is remote; and ⢠We have assessed the appropriateness of the presentation of the most significant contingent liabilities in the Standalone Financial Statements. |
Information Other than the Standalone Financial Statements and Auditor''s Report Thereon
The Company''s Management and Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company''s annual report but does not include the Standalone Financial Statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The aforesaid report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor''s report.
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 identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the Company''s annual report and if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and shall take appropriate actions, if required.
Responsibilities of Management and Board of Directors for the Standalone 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 and presentation of these Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) 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 judgements 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 Statements 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, 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.
Those Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.
Auditor''s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone 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 Annual 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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the Company has an adequate internal financial controls system with reference
to the Standalone Financial statement 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 the Management and Board of Directors.
⢠Conclude on the appropriateness of Management and Board of Directors'' 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 appropriateness of this assumption. 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 Standalone 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 Annual Standalone Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Annual Standalone Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial Statements that, individually or in the aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the 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 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.
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 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.

ANNEXURE ''B'' TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR''S REPORT
(Referred to in paragraph 2(f) of our report of even date)
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Section 143(3)(i) ofthe C ompanies Ac t, 2013 (the ''Act'')
We have audited the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Weizmann F orex L imited (the ''Company'') as of 31st March, 2018 in conjunction with our audit ofthe Standalone Ind AS 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 (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 theAct.
Auditor''s 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 and the Standards on Auditing issued by ICAI and specified under Section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls and, both issued by the ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls over financial reporting was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system over financial reporting and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditor''s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone Ind AS financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
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
Acompany''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 Ind AS 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 ofthe assets ofthe company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of Ind AS financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures ofthe 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 ofthe company''s assets that could have a material effect on the Ind AS 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 of 31st March, 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 issued by the ICAI.
