Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance inour audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed inthe context of our audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinionthereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters:
non-availability of account confirmations in respect of Trade Payables & Trade receivables reflectsweakness in the internal financial control which we consider to be significant key matter, keeping inview the nature and size of the operations of the Company.
Our procedures included the following: The issues relating to requirement of strengthening InternalFinancial Controls have been discussed with the management, who has assured necessary compliancesin the current fiscal year.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other informationcomprises the information included in the Annual report but does not include the financial statementsand our auditor’s report thereon. The information included in the annual report is expected to be madeavailable to us after the date of the auditor’s report.
Our opinion on the Ind AS standalone financial statements docs not cover the other information and wedo not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the standalone Ind AS financial statements, our responsibility is to readthe other information and, in doing so, consider whether such other information is materially inconsistentwith the standalone Ind AS financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwiseappears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work wc have performed, we conclude that there isa material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact. We have nothingto report in this regard except for matters described in the ‘ Basis for Qualified Opinion’ para above.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of theCompanies Act, 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone Ind AS financialstatements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance, including othercomprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with theaccounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Companies (Indian AccountingStandards) Rules, 2015, as amended. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequateaccounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of theCompany and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application ofappropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; andthe design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls, that were operatingeffectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to thepreparation and presentation of the standalone Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements, management is responsible for assessing theCompany’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to goingconcern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidatethe Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing theCompany ’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives arc to obtain reasonable assurance about w'hethcr the standalone Ind AS financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issuean auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a liigh level of assurance but isnot a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing (SAs) will alwaysdetect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and arcconsidered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influencethe economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these standalone Ind AS financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism 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 oneresulting 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 auditprocedures that are appropriate in tire circumstances. Under Section 143(3) (i) of the Act, weare also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether the company has adequate internalfinancial controls with reference to financial statements in place and the operating effectivenessof such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accountingestimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accountingand, based on the audit evidence obtained, w'hether a material uncertainty exists related to eventsor conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a goingconcern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we lire required to draw attention inour auditor's report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial statements or, if suchdisclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the auditevidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditionsmay 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 theunderlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individuallyor in aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable user ofthe standalone financial statements may be influenced. We consider quantitative materiality andqualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of our audit wwk 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 plannedscope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies ininterna] control that wc identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevantethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and othermatters that may reasonably be drought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, relatedsafeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters thatwere of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period andare therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law orregulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, wedetermine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences ofdoing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
