Basis for opinion

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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

4. 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.

Key audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

I. Appropriateness of recognition of revenue in respect of sales of licenses on principal basis :

Refer note 1 (d) and note 20 in the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.

The Company recognizes gross revenue from sale of licenses (including renewal of licenses), on transfer of the title to customer as per the assessment made under Ind-AS 115. The contracts with customers in case of licenses are nonstandard and each contract requires assessment of the Company’s position as to whether it is acting as the principal or as an agent on behalf of the supplier.

On adoption of Ind AS 115 by the Company w.e.f. April 1, 2018 through modified retrospective approach, the management has assessed its existing contracts and reassessed the appropriateness of revenue from license sales on gross basis and not on net basis as an agent on behalf of suppliers.

This has been determined as a KAM in view of the significant management judgement involved in assessment of primary risks and responsibilities and the right to pricing decision under the contracts, and related supplier’s rights, for the purpose of recognition of revenue as principal (on gross basis) or as an agent (on net basis)

Our audit procedures included the following:

- Obtaining an understanding of and testing the design and operating effectiveness of key controls around the revenue recognition

- Testing of sample contracts involving certain license sales transactions during the year to gain an understanding of the terms of the contracts including pattern of transfer of rights and obligations under the contract.

- In respect of the contracts tested, evaluation of that the management’s assessment against the indicators that demonstrates that an entity controls the specified good or service before it is transferred to the customer (and is therefore a principal) as specified under Ind AS 115 -Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

- Evaluated the adequacy of disclosures in the financial statements

Based on the above procedures performed, we did not find any significant exceptions to management’s assessment of recognition of revenue in respect of licence sale on principal basis.

II Assessment of Valuation of Employee Stock Options Scheme:

Refer note 1 (t) and note 36 in the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.

The Company has an Employee Stock Option Plan 2009 (ESOP 2009) which is accounted for in accordance with Ind AS 102 “Share based payments”.

The management has engaged an independent expert who determines the value of options granted using Black and Scholes valuation model. The valuation model requires certain significant judgements like expected life of share option, volatility and dividend yield etc.

We focused on this area considering the judgements involved in underlying assumptions.

Our audit procedures included the following:

- Obtaining an understanding of the Employee Stock Option Scheme, testing the design and operating effectiveness of the key controls around it.

- Evaluation of competency and capabilities of management’s expert

- Discussing with the Management’s Expert the appropriateness of significant assumptions used in the valuation.

- Independently evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation model and the key assumptions used as inputs in the valuation.

- Re-performing the related calculations to check the arithmetical accuracy.

- Evaluating the adequacy of the disclosures in the financial statements

Based on the above audit procedures, we did not note any

significant exceptions in respect of assessment of valuation

of Employee Stock Options Scheme.

III Assessment of Valuation of Investment in Preference Shares

Refer note 1 (l), note 5 and note 31 in the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.

As at March 31, 2019 the Company has investment in preference shares of a subsidiary amounting to Rs. 934.91 lacs which are carried at fair value through profit and loss in accordance with requirements of Ind AS 109.

Our audit procedures included the following:

- We understood from the management, evaluated and tested the design and operating effectiveness of the key controls in the investment valuation process.

- We evaluated the competence, capabilities and objectivity of Management’s expert (independent professional valuer).

Key audit matter

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

These investments have been categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Valuation has been conducted by independent valuer. Valuation of level 3 investments is inherently subjective since these are valued using inputs, other than quoted prices in an active market, which are generally not observable.

Key inputs used in the valuation of individual level 3 investments are cash flow projections, market multiples and growth rate, terminal rate, discount rate etc.

Given the inherent subjectivity in the valuation of level 3 investments and the nature and extent of audit procedures involved, we determined this to be a key audit matter.

- We assessed the reasonableness of key assumptions / inputs used in the valuation, such as cash flow projections, market multiples and growth rate, discount rate etc.

- Performing sensitivity analysis and evaluating whether any reasonably foreseeable change in assumptions.

- We validated the source data on sample basis and tested the arithmetical accuracy of the calculation of valuation of investments.

Based on above procedures we consider that the management’s assessment of the fair valuation of investments in preference shares is reasonable.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

IV Assessment of the impairment to the carrying value of investment in wholly owned subsidiaries

Refer to note 1(h) of the accounting policies and note 5 in the Standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.

The Company has investments amounting to Rs 2,727,75 lacs in Onward eServices Limited and Onward Technologies GmbH, which are the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

Management has made evaluation of impairment risk in carrying value of investment in subsidiaries using estimated discounted cash flows (value in use) model with the help of valuation expert and concluded that no impairment provision is required against these investments

We considered this as a key audit matter in our audit considering the significant value of the investments and management judgements involved in assessing the appropriateness of the valuation methodology, estimates of future cash flows as well as assumptions like Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), growth rate, terminal value etc. used in the valuation model.

Our audit procedures included the following:

- Obtaining an understanding of the controls around the impairment assessment including the budgeting process and valuation workings, testing and evaluating the operating effectiveness;

- Assessment of the appropriateness of the methodology and the valuation model used by management to value investments;

- Assessing the historical accuracy of the Company’s forecasts by comparing the forecasts of the prior year with the actual performance in the current year;

- Testing the mathematical accuracy of the underlying calculations and comparing the forecasts with the latest Board-approved budgets;

- Assessing the appropriateness of key assumptions like growth rate, terminal rate and WACC used by Management expert by comparing the same with historical results and economic and industry forecasts;

- Evaluated the competency and capabilities of management’s valuation expert.

- Performing a sensitivity analysis over the key assumptions within a reasonable and foreseeable range in order to assess their potential impact on impairment results and ranges of possible outcomes of the recoverable amounts.

- Evaluated adequacy of disclosures in the financial statements

Based on the above procedures performed, we did not find

any significant exceptions in the management’s assessment

of impairment to the carrying value of investments in

wholly owned subsidiaries

Other Information

5. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Director’s Report, 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 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 financial statements

6. 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, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section 133 of the Act. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

7. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless 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 also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

8. 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.

9. As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism 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 Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

- Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

10. 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.

11. 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.

12. 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

13. As required by the Companies (Auditor’s Report) Order, 2016 (“the Order”), issued by the Central Government of India in terms of sub-section (11) of section 143 of the Act, we give in the Annexure B a statement on the matters specified in paragraphs 3 and 4 of the Order, to the extent applicable.

Annexure A to Independent Auditors’ Report

Referred to in paragraph 14(f) of the Independent Auditors’ Report of same even date to the members of Onward Technology Ltd. on the Standalone Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2019. Report on the Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Act

1. We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements of Onward Technologies Limited (“the Company”) as of March 31, 2019 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

2. 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 (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 Act.

Auditors’ Responsibility

3. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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”) and the Standards on Auditing deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Act to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both 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 with reference to financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

4. Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, 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 financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

5. 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 with reference to financial statements.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls with reference to financial statements

6. A company’s internal financial controls with reference to financial statements 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 controls with reference to financial statements 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 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 with reference to financial statements

7. Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls with reference to financial statements, 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 with reference to financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial controls with reference to financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

8. In our opinion, the Company has, in all material respects, an adequate internal financial controls system with reference to financial statements and such internal financial controls with reference to financial statements were operating effectively as at March 31, 2019, 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.

4. 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.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting

6. 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 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

7. Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management over ride 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 in adequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

8. 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 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 on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

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 expenditures 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 Control Over Financial Reporting

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 except that there is scope for improvement and certain areas require strengthening of controls such as Verification of Fixed Assets, Bill Booking of Expenses, Processing of Payroll and General Controls with respect to Information Technology 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.
