Accuracy of recognition,
measurement, presentation
and disclosures of receivable
and expected credit loss.
A receivable shall be classified
as 'trade receivable' if it is in
respect of the amount due on
account of goods sold or
services rendered in the normal
course of business. Hence,
amounts due under contractual
rights, other than arising out of

recorded either side of year end as well as credit notes issued after
the year end date to determine whether trade receivable
corresponding to revenue was recognised in the correct period.

Assessment of Provisions
and Contingent liabilities.
Assessment of Provisions and
Contingent liabilities in respect
of certain provisions including
claim filed by other parties not
acknowledged as debt. (Refer
note no. 21 and 32 to the
financial statements).
Significant management judge¬
ment is required to assess such
matters to determine the
probability of occurrence of
material outflow of economic
resources and whether a
provision should be recognized,
or a disclosure should be made.
The management judgement is
also supported with legal advice
in certain cases as considered
appropriate.
As the ultimate outcome of the
matters is uncertain and the
positions taken by the
management is based on the
application of their best
judgement, so it is considered to
be a Key Audit Matter.

Our procedures included:-
We understood, assessed and tested the design and operating
effectiveness of key controls, surrounding assessment of provisions
created relating to the claims for compensations filed to the company
for performance of the products supplied by the Company.
We discussed with management the recent developments and the
status of the material claims which were reviewed and noted by the
technical team of the company.
Tests of details:
We performed our assessment on a test basis on the underlying
calculations supporting the, provisions created relating to the claims
and compensations made in the Standalone Financial Statements.
We evaluated management's assessments by understanding
precedents set in similar cases and assessed the reliability of the
Management's past estimates / judgements.
We evaluated management's assessment around those matters that
are not disclosed or not considered as contingent liability, as the
probability of material outflow is considered to be remote by the
management; and
Assessing disclosures:
We assessed the adequacy of the Company's disclosures.
Our results :
Based on the above work performed, management's assessment in
respect of provisions and related disclosures relating to contingent
liabilities in the Standalone Financial Statements are considered to be
reasonable.

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, Corporate Governance and Shareholder's Information, but does not include the standalone financial
statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we
conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibility of the Management for the Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements that gives a true and fair view of the financial position, financial
performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) prescribed 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 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 Ind AS financial statements that gives a true and fair view and are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Ind AS Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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
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 management's 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 Company 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 Ind AS
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 Ind AS financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the Ind AS 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 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.
