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 Management Discussion and Analysis, Board''s
Report including Annexures to Board''s Report, Business
Responsibility and Sustainability Report, Corporate Governance
report but does not include the standalone financial statements
and our auditor''s report thereon). The Annual 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
and, in doing so, consider whether such 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 Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a
material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate
the matter to those charged with governance and shall comply
with the relevant applicable requirement of SA 720 (Revised),
‘The Auditor''s Responsibilities Relating to Other Information''.

Responsibility 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, total
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
specified under Section 133 of the Act. This responsibility
also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in
accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of
the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting
frauds and other irregularities; selection and application
of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and

estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial
controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant
to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial
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 and Board of Directors are 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 Board
of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors is 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 standalone financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to
issue an auditor''s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable
assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with SAs will always detect
a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of
these standalone financial statements.

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

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of
the standalone financial statements, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive
to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The
risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting
from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as

fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal financial controls
relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under Section
143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing
our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal
financial controls with reference to standalone 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 the Management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 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 financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the standalone financial
statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any
significant deficiencies in internal financial controls 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.

Other Matter

The comparative financial information of the Company as at and
for the year ended March 31, 2024 included in these standalone
financial statements have been audited by the predecessor
auditor who have expressed an unmodified opinion vide its
Audit Report dated May 30, 2024.

Our opinion on the standalone financial statement is not
modified in respect of above matter on comparative financial
information.

Key Audit Matter

4. Key audit matters 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 financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

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

Key audit matter

How our audit procedures addressed the key audit matter

A. Capitalization and amortization of content development cost

(Refer note 2.2(b) for the accounting policies and note 44 for the disclosures made in the accompanying standalone financial statements)

The Company provides digital media services to its customers by developing diverse digital content such as videos, articles and documentaries, which is monetised by the Company over various digital platforms. The Company has assessed that such digital media content meets the recognition criteria as per Ind AS 38, Intangible Assets.

The cost incurred in content development includes scripting, editing, visual effects and quality check and the process to record such costs requires various estimates to be made by the management which involves significant

Our audit procedures relating to capitalization and amortization of content development cost included, but were not limited to the following:

a) Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policy for capitalization and amortization of such cost in terms of accounting principles enunciated under Ind AS 38.

judgement to be exercised and is dependent on various internal and external factors such as establishing basis for shooting and editing costs, determining direct and indirect costs and further allocating the direct expenses to short term or long-term projects, based on actual number of employee hours incurred on the projects.

The aforesaid, cost capitalized as content development is amortized based on historical and estimated viewing patterns which involves inherent estimation uncertainty.

Considering the materiality of the amounts involved, and high degree of subjectivity relating to management judgement and estimates that required significant auditor attention, we have identified this as a key audit matter in the current year audit.

e) Performed substantive analytical procedures which included quarter on quarter trend analysis considering both qualitative and quantitative factors to identify any unusual trends or any unusual items.

f) Performed sensitivity analysis of certain key assumptions such as hourly rates and language conversion costs pertaining to time cost of employees capitalized to determine the impact of estimation uncertainty.

g) Performed substantive testing of cost capitalized by reviewing the underlying supporting documents such as shooting, editing and travel invoices to confirm the accuracy of amount capitalized; and

h) Evaluated the appropriateness of disclosures made in the standalone financial statements in accordance with the applicable accounting standards.

13. 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.

14. 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.

Basis for Opinion

3. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 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 Code of Ethics. 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 standalone 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.

5. We have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matter

How our audit procedures addressed the key audit matter

A. Capitalisation and amortisation of content development cost

(Refer note 2.2(b) for the accounting policy and note 46 for the disclosures made in the accompanying standalone financial statements)

The Company provides digital media services to its customers by developing diverse digital content such as videos, articles and documentaries, which is monetised by the Company over various digital platforms. The Company has assessed that such digital media content meets the recognition criteria as per Ind AS 38, Intangible Assets.

The cost incurred in content development includes scripting, editing, visual effects and quality check and the process to record such costs requires various estimates to be made by the management which involves significant judgement to be exercised and is dependent on various internal and external factors such as establishing basis for shooting and editing costs, determining direct and indirect costs and further allocating the direct expenses to short term or long-term projects, based on actual number of employee hours incurred on the projects.

Our audit procedures relating to capitalization and amortization

of content development cost included, but were not limited to the

following:

a) Evaluated the appropriateness of accounting policy for capitalization and amortization of such cost in terms of accounting principles enunciated under Ind AS 38.

b) Obtained an understanding from the management, evaluated the design and implementation of Company''s key internal controls in respect of capitalization and amortization of such cost and tested the operating effectiveness of such controls throughout the year.

c) Reviewed the capitalization workings such as direct costs allocated to long-term projects and performed re-computation of amortisation workings as per the accounting policy.

d) Tested historical viewing patterns used in determining amortisation policy and evaluated the appropriateness of the same.

e) Performed substantive analytical procedures which included quarter on quarter trend analysis considering both qualitative and quantitative factors to identify any unusual trends or any unusual items.

Key audit matter

How our audit procedures addressed the key audit matter

The aforesaid, cost capitalised as content development is amortised based on historical and estimated viewing patterns which involves inherent estimation uncertainty. Considering the materiality of the amounts involved, and high degree of subjectivity relating to management judgement and estimates that required significant auditor attention, we have identified this as a key audit matter in the current year audit.

f) Performed sensitivity analysis of certain key assumptions such as hourly rates and language conversion costs pertaining to time cost of employees capitalized to determine the impact of estimation uncertainty.

g) Performed substantive testing of cost capitalised by reviewing the underlying supporting documents such as shooting, editing and travel invoices to confirm the accuracy of amount capitalised; and

h) Evaluated the appropriateness of disclosures made in the standalone financial statements in accordance with the applicable accounting standards.


Information other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s

Report thereon

6. The Company''s Board ofDirectors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Management Discussion and Analysis, Report on Corporate Governance and Directors'' Report, but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditor''s report thereon. The Annual 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 will 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.

When we read the Annual Report, 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 Standalone Financial Statements

7. The accompanying standalone financial statements have been approved by the Company''s Board of Directors. The Company''s Board of Directors are 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 Ind AS specified

under section 133 of the Act and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding 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.

8. In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors are 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 Board of Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

9. Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company''s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the StandaloneFinancial Statements

10. 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 Standards on Auditing 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.

11. 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 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 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 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.

12. 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.

13. 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.

14. 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.
