We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of City Pulse
Multiplex Limited (the "Company") which comprise the Balance Sheet as at March 31,
2025, the Statement of Profit and Loss (Including Other Comprehensive Income), the
Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of material accounting
policies and other explanatory information (herein after referred to as "the Standalone
Financial Statements").
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations
given to us, the aforesaid Standalone Financial Statements give the information required
by the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and
fair view in conformity with the Accounting Standards prescribed under section 133 of
the Act read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and other accounting
principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March
31, 2025, its profit, total comprehensive income and its cash flows for the year ended on
that date.
Basis of Opinion
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 (SAs). Our
responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's
Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our
report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the ethical
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have fulfilled
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 audit opinion on the Standalone Financial
Statements.
Key Audit Matters
Key Audit matters ('KAM') are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of
most significance in our audit of the Standalone Financial Statements of the current
period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Standalone
Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not
provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of 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, Business Responsibility 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 Standalone Financial Statements, our responsibility
is to read the other information, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the Standalone Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained
during the course of our 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.
2. Management's Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in the section
134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") with respect to the preparation and
presentation of these Standalone Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of
the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income,
changes in cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards specified under section
133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. 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 Standalone 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 financial statements, the respective Management and
Board of Directors are responsible for assessing the ability of company 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 company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative
but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the financial
reporting process of company.
3. Auditor's Responsibility for the audit of the Standalone Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Standalone
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 Standalone Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and
maintain professional scepticism 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 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 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 system
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 the 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 Standalone 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 Standalone
Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Standalone
Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that achieves fair presentation.
Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the Standalone Financial
Statements that, individually or in aggregate, 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 of any identified misstatements in the
Standalone Financial Statements.
We communicate with those charged with governance of the Company included in
the Standalone Financial Statements 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.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we
determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the
Standalone Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or
regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our
report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected
to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
