statement of Profit and Loss, including the Statement of
Other Comprehensive Income, the statement of cash flows

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit ofthe Standalone financial statements
in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified
under section 143(10) of the Act. 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 (“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 there under, 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 opinion on the
Standalone financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

1. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our
professional judgement, 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.

2. We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key Audit Matter

Auditor’s Response

1. Trade Receivables :

Net Trade Receivables amounting to ''13,120.92 lakhs.

Trade Receivables are recognized at their anticipated
realized value, which is the original invoice amount less
estimated value of allowance.

To obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence, our
principal audit procedures and procedures performed by
component auditors, amongst others, include the following:

• We obtained balance confirmations from customers on
sample basis;

Trade receivables are considered as key audit matters in
the audit due to size of Trade receivables balance and the
high level of management judgment used in determining
the provision.

• We analyzed the aging of trade receivables; and

• We obtained a list of long outstanding receivables, and
assessed the recoverability of these through inquiry with
management and by obtaining sufficient corroborative
evidence to support the conclusions.

Information other than the standalone financial
statements and auditor’s report thereon

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other
information. The other information comprises the information
included in the yearly report, for example, 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. The other information as stated above 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 in the 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 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 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 accounting Standards specified under section
133 of the Act read with the companies (Indian Accounting
Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended.

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 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
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 Company’s Board of Directors are also 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 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 Standards on auditing
specified under section 143(10)of the act, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of
the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud
may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control:

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to
the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances. 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 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;

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the
Standalone Financial Statements that, individually or in
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone
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 Standalone 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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on the Standalone financial statements.

Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

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 as the Key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

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 in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

When we read the other information as stated above, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with Governance.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the financial statement

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 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 accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act.

This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of 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 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 Responsibility 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-levd of

\assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SA^Wrn^A^vs

i f\ ,Jsr- “O IT

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.

We have obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such entities included in the financial statements of which we are the independent auditors.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

We also:

• Identity 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 tfaud 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 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 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 Standalone finajiciafo statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements repie^^l^, underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fail'' presentation. /inojd

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone financial statements that, individually or in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the Standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluat ing the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any identified misstatements in the Standalone 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 w''ould reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
