Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Annual Financial Results
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone annual financial results
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 annual financial results.
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 annual financial results,
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 through a separate report on the complete set of financial statements 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 in the standalone annual financial results made by the Management
and Board of Directors.
- 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
appropriateness of this assumption. 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 annual financial
results 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 annual financial results,
including the disclosures, and whether the standalone annual financial results represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial results/ financial information of the
branch of the Company to express an opinion on the standalone annual financial results. For the
