Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs), and other pronouncements issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (the "ICAI"). Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditors Responsibilities for the audit of the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and joint venture in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the ICAI and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements.
Emphasis Of Matter
We draw attention to Note 2 to the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements, which describes the basis of preparation (including presentation) of this Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements. The Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements have been prepared by the Manager for inclusion in the draft offer document, the offer document and the final offer document (collectively, the "Offer Documents") in connection with the proposed initial public offering of the units of the Trust. As a result, the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements may not be suitable for another purpose. Our report is intended solely for the purpose of inclusion in the Offer Documents and is not to be used, referred to or distributed for any other purpose.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of the above matter.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements
The Board of Directors of the Manager is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance including other comprehensive income, cash flows, changes in equity, net assets at fair value and total returns at fair value of the Group and joint venture in accordance with the basis of preparation as set out in Note 2 to the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements.
The respective Board of Directors of the components are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding of the assets of their respective component 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 the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements 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 Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements by the Board of Directors of the Manager, as aforesaid.
In preparing the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements, the respective Board of Directors of the components are responsible for assessing the ability of their respective component 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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The respective Board of Directors of the components are also responsible for overseeing the respective component financial reporting process.
Auditors Responsibilities for the audit of the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors 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 Special Purpose Combined 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 Special Purpose Combined 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 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Groups internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of managements 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 to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the Special Purpose Combined 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 auditors report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the components or business activities within the Group and the joint venture of which we are the independent auditors and whose financial information we have audited, to express an opinion on the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit of the financial statements of such components included in the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements of which we are the independent auditors. For the other entities included in the Special Purpose Combined Financial Statements, 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 Trust 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 of the Trust 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.
