Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and
Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended, and notes
to the standalone financial statements, including material

In our opinion and to the best of our information and

accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the
state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2025, and
its profit including other comprehensive income, changes
in equity and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the standalone financial
statements in accordance with the Standards on
Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10) of the
Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are
further described in the 'Auditor's Responsibilities 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 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 is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional
judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the
standalone financial statements for the year ended March
31, 2025. 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. We have determined
the matters described below to be the key audit matters to
be communicated in our report:

Revenue recognition
Revenue from the Contracts with Customers (as
described in note 3(b) of the standalone financial
statements): Revenue from these contracts are
recognized in accordance with the requirements of
Ind AS 115.
The Company has long term contracts with
customers, as at the year end, for all incomplete
sales orders, revenue is recognized by evaluating
the conditions required as per contractual
terms i.e., provision of service to customer and
acknowledgement of invoice. Further, revenue
is recognised for the completed performance
obligation which are part of the incomplete sales
orders.
|
Our audit procedures in respect of this area include but are
not limited to:
1. Obtained an understanding of the systems, processes
and controls implemented by management for recording
and computing revenue, associated unbilled revenue,
unearned revenue and deferred revenue balances;
2. Assessed the appropriateness of Company's accounting
policies with respect to Revenue recognition in
accordance with IND AS 115 "Revenue from Contracts
with Customers";
3. Verified accuracy of the revenue recognition by selecting
samples on test check basis and checking the underlying
contract terms and conditions;

Key Audit Matter

How the Key Audit Matter was addressed in our audit
|
| |
The criteria for identification of the specific
performance obligations covered by the sales
order and the allocation of the transaction price
to each performance obligation requires specific
attention due to the judgement involved in
identifying the specific performance obligation and
determination of whether the agreed provision of
services to customer are completed in regard to
each of these obligations, as acknowledged by the
customers. There is also estimation uncertainty in
assessing the incomplete sales orders at the year
end and identifying the completed portions of the
performance obligations from these sales orders.
Considering this we have determined Revenue
Recognition to be a Key Audit Matter.
|
4. For samples selected evaluated, as to whether
performance obligation for revenue recognition is
completed as and when the service is rendered to the
customer and acknowledged. Further, performed
verification of proof of delivery of services completed;
5. Verification of the ageing of the unbilled revenue and
testing for the subsequent acknowledgement from the
customers; and
6. Verified the completeness and adequacy of disclosure in
the standalone financial statements in compliance with
Ind AS 115.

Allowance for credit impaired trade receivables
(Refer to note 17 to the standalone financial
statements with respect to the disclosures of trade
receivables):
The Company has trade receivables as at March 31,
2025, amounting to ' 22,062.23 lakhs against which
the Company has recorded allowance for trade
receivables of ' 1676.33 lakhs (PY 1,701.68 lakhs).
Management creates allowance for credit impaired
trade receivables based on the expected credit loss
model. Additionally, the Company assesses the
recoverability of all the debit balances including
ageing on case-to-case basis considering the facts
and circumstances to decide on adhoc provision
required.
We have determined this matter to be key audit
matter considering the materiality of the amounts
and significant judgements and estimates involved
regarding the allowances for trade receivables.
|
Our audit procedures in respect of this are included but not
limited to:
1. Obtained an understanding of the process from the
management of the Company and tested design
implementation and operating effectiveness of controls
over for development and consistency of methodology
for the computation of allowance for trade receivables,
tested the completeness and accuracy of information
used in estimation of the probability of default, loss given
default and other key estimates;
2. Recomputed the ageing of the trade receivables on
sample basis and traced their balances to standalone
financial statements;
3. Verified subsequent recovery of trade receivables by
tracing them in the books of accounts and bank statement
on test check basis;
4. Tested the management computations arising out of
expected credit loss model;
5. Analysing significant judgements and estimates involved
around the expected credit loss model including
examining the class of receivables on which certain %
based on historic trends are applied, and further assessed
the adequacy of provisions made for any possible non
recoveries ascertaining the risk of recoverability or
delayed payments, etc.;
6. Assessed the basis of management's judgement
regarding specific allowance made against aged balances
which are considered to be unrecoverable; and

Information Other than the Standalone Financial
Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon
The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the
other information. The other information comprises the
Director's report, Management Discussion and Analysis,
Report on Corporate Governance and Financial Highlights
(hereinafter referred as "other information") but does
not include the standalone financial statements and our
auditor's report thereon. The other information is expected
to be made available to us after the date of this auditor's
report.
Our opinion on the standalone financial statements does
not cover the other information and we will 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 identified above when it becomes available
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the standalone financial
statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or
otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
When we read the other information, if we conclude that
there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to
communicate the matter to those charged with governance
under SA 720 'The Auditor's responsibilities Relating to
Other Information'.
Responsibilities of Management and Those
Charged with Governance for the Standalone
Financial Statements
The Company's Management and Board of Directors is
responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the
Act with respect to the preparation of these standalone
financial statements that give 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 Accounting Standards specified 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 of 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
Management and Board of Directors are 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 the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate
the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for overseeing
the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities 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.
We give in "Annexure A" a detailed description of Auditor's
responsibilities for Audit of the Standalone Financial
Statements.
