In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us and
based on the consideration of the reports of the other auditors on financial information of
subsidiaries and associates, referred to below in the Other Matter paragraph, the Statement:
a. includes the financial results of the subsidiaries and associates as given in Annexure 1;
b. is presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations; and
c. gives a true and fair view, in conformity with the recognition and measurement principles laid
down in the Indian Accounting Standards ('Ind AS'), and other accounting principles generally
accepted in India, of consolidated total comprehensive income (comprising of net profit and
other comprehensive income) and other financial information of the Group for the quarter and
year ended 31 March 2024.
Basis of Opinion:
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standard on Auditing (Standards) specified under
section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013 (the 'Act'). Our responsibilities under those Standards
are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statement section of our
report. We are independent of the Group and its associates in accordance with the Code of Ethics
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that
are relevant to our audit of the financial statements under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013
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 obtained by us and
other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in "Other Matters" paragraph below, is sufficient
and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
54 .
This Statement which includes the consolidated financial results, is the responsibility of the Holding
Company's Board of Directors and has been approved by them for issuance. The Statement has been
compiled from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024. The
Holding Company's Board of Directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this
Statement that give a true and fair view of the net profit / loss and other comprehensive income and
other financial information of the Group and its associates in accordance with the recognition and
measurement principles laid down in the Ind AS prescribed under Section 133 of the Act read with
relevant rules issued thereunder and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in
compliance with Regulation 33 of the Listing Regulations. The respective Board of Directors of the
companies included in the Group and its associates are responsible for maintenance of adequate
accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of
the Group and its associates 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 the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal
financial controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring accuracy and completeness of the
accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Statement that give a true
and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have
been used for the purpose of preparation of the Statement by the Directors of the Holding
Company, as aforesaid.
In preparing the Statement, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the
Group and its associates are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group and its associates to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using
the going concern basis of accounting unless the respective Board of Directors either intends to
liquidate the Group and its associates or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do
SO.
The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and its associates are
responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Group and its associates.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement as a whole is 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 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 this Statement.
As part of an audit in accordance with Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 on whether the holding company and its
subsidiaries incorporated in India have adequate internal financial controls in place with
reference to the financial statements and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 ability of the
Group and its associates 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 consolidated 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 Group and its
associates to cease to continue as a going concern.
• evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial results,
including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial results represent the
underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• perform procedures in accordance with the circular issued by the Securities and Exchange
Board of India under Regulation 33(8) of the Listing Regulations to the extent applicable.
• obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the
entities within the Group and its associates to express an opinion on the consolidated
financial results. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the
audit of financial information of such entities included in the consolidated financial results of
which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the consolidated
financial results, which have been audited by other auditors, such other auditors remain
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audits carried out by them.
We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Holding Company and such other
entities included in the Statement of which we are the independent auditors 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.
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.
