In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaidstandalone financial statements give the information required by the Companies Act, 2013 (the “Act”) in themanner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the Indian Accounting Standards prescribedunder section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended,(“IndAS”) and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company asat March 31, 2024, the Loss and total comprehensive income, changes in equity and its cash flows for the yearended on that date.
We conducted our audit of the standalone financial statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing(“SA” s) specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are furtherdescribed in the Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of ourreport. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute ofChartered Accountants of India (“ICAI”) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit ofthe standalone financial statements under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we havefulfilled 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 auditopinion on the standalone financial statements.
The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprisesthe information included in the Annual Report but does not include the standalone financial statements and ourauditor’s report thereon. The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditor’sreport. Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does not cover the other information and we do notexpress any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the standalone financialstatements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the otherinformation is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial statements or our knowledge obtained in theaudit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude thatthere is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged withgovernance.
The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134 (5) of the Act withrespect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financialposition, financial performance, including other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows of
the Company in accordance with the Ind AS and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Thisresponsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions ofthe Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and otherirregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimatesthat are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financialcontrols, 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 viewand are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the standalone financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’sability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using thegoing concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to ceaseoperations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial statements as a wholeare free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includesour opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conductedin accordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise fromfraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expectedto 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 professionalSkepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements, whether due tofraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence thatis sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit proceduresthat are appropriate in the circumstances. Undersection 143(3)(i) of the Act, we are also responsible forexpressing our opinion on whether the Company has adequate internal financial controls system in placeand the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimatesand related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, basedon the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that maycast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a materialuncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in thestandalone financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, futureevents 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 thedisclosures, and whether the standalone financial statements represent the underlying transactions andevents in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statements that, individually or inaggregate, 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 ofany identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope andtiming of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control thatwe identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethicalrequirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters thatmay 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 ofmost significance in the audit of the standalone financial statements of the current period and are therefore thekey audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes publicdisclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected tooutweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
