We conducted our audit 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 Ind AS 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 Ind AS 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 ICAI’s 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

Ind AS financial statements.

 

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Ind AS financial statements for the financial year ended March 31,

2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Ind AS financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matters described in the Emphasis of Matter Para above, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Key audit matters How our audit addressed the key audit matter
1.Revenue from contracts with customers (Described in Note 2 (K) of the Ind AS financial statements) Assessment of Revenue from contracts with customers as a basis of accounting: Our procedures included the following:
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services rendered are transferred to the customer, at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. • We assessed the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls related to revenue recognition, discounts and rebates.
• We performed sample tests of individual sales transaction and traced to related documents, considering the terms of performance.
The Company is engaged in Container Freight Station (CFS) and Inland Container Depot (ICD) operations and related activities. It has developed procedures to record the revenue on the basis of the movement of the cargo and revenue accrues as per Indian Accounting Standard 115. Due to different terms with different customers and transaction tprice, there is a risk that the revenue or discounts or rebates; might not be recorded correctly.
• We tested cut-off procedures with respect to year-end sales transactions made.
• We also performed analytical procedures of revenue by streams to identify any unusual trends.
We have identified invoices booked in tracker software and with books of account and verified the reconciliation for differences.
Revenue is a key parameter to ascertain the Company’s performance. The Company focuses on revenue as a key performance measure, which could create an incentive for revenue to be recognized before the risk and rewards have been transferred.
Conclusion Based on our combination of procedures involving enquiry, observation, and inspection of evidence in respect of operation of these controls, we have concluded that the revenue has been recognized in accordance with the relevant Ind AS’s.
Accordingly, due to the significant risk associated with revenue recognition in accordance with terms of Ind AS 115 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’, it has been considered to be a key audit matter in our audit of these Ind AS financial statements.
2. Capitalization of property, plant and equipment and related depreciation
The company has significantcapital expenditure incurred on account of execution of its Morbi Project and other fixed assets to improve operational efficiency at other locations amounting to INR 325.79 crores and further expenditure of INR 225.71 crores towards Capital Work in Progress. We considered Capital expenditure as a Key audit matter due to: Our procedures included the following :
We obtained an understanding of the Company’s capitalization policy and assessed for compliance with the relevant accounting standards.
• We performed substantive testing on a sample basis for element of capitalized costs along with reconciliation directly attributable cost, including verification of underlying supporting evidence and understanding nature of the costs capitalized.
Significance of amount incurred on such items during the year ended March 31, 2023.

In relation to borrowing costs we obtained the supporting calculations, verified the inputs to the calculation and tested the arithmetical accuracy of the model. Conclusion: Based on the procedures performed no issues were noted from our testing with respect to capitalization of work in progress and Property, Plant and Equipment.

Judgment and estimate required by management in assessing assets meeting the capitalization criteria set out in Ind AS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment.
Judgment involved in determining the eligibility of costs including borrowing cost and other directly attributable costs like employee cost for capitalization as per the criteria set out in Ind AS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment along with Ind AS 23 Borrowing Costs.

 

Other Information

The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Director Report but does not include the Ind AS financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the Ind AS 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 Ind AS financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the Ind AS financial statements or 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.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Ind AS Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the matters stated in Section 134(5) of the Act with respect to the preparation of these Ind AS financialstatements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance (including other comprehensive income), changes in equity and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including Ind AS specified under Section 133 of the Act, read with relevant rules issued thereunder. 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 Ind AS financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the Ind AS financial statements 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 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 with reference to Ind AS 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 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 identify any significant 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 Ind AS financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2023 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.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these Ind AS financial statements, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of the internal financial controls over financial reporting with reference to these Ind AS financial statements to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal financial control over financial reporting with reference to these Ind AS financial statements may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
