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, as amended ("the Act") in the manner so required and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Company as at March 31, 2024, its profit including other comprehensive income, its cash flows and the changes in equity 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), as specified under section 143(10) of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the RsAuditorRss Responsibilities for the Audit of the Standalone Financial StatementsRs section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the RsCode of EthicsRs issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the 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 we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial statements
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the standalone financial statements for the financial year ended March 31, 2024. 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. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.
We have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report. We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the AuditorRss responsibilities for the audit of the standalone financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying standalone financial statements
Key audit matters | How our audit addressed the key audit matter |
Ind AS 115 - Revenue from Contract with Customers (as described in note 1.2.9 and 42 of the standalone financial statements) | |
Revenue from real-estate contracts is recognised over a period of time in accordance with the requirements of Ind AS 115 using the percentage of completion method. This determination is based on the proportion that contract costs actually incurred, bear to the estimated total contract costs, and requires significant judgements, including estimate of balance costs to complete, identification of contractual obligations, the CompanyRss rights to receive payments for performance completed till date, changes in scope and consequential revised contract price. | Our audit procedures included, among others: |
Revenue recognition is significant to the standalone financial statements based on the quantitative materiality. The application of percentage of completion method involves significant judgement as explained above. Accordingly, we regard these as key audit matter. | We read the accounting policy for revenue recognition of the Company and assessed compliance with the requirements of Ind AS 115. |
We assessed the management evaluation of recognising revenue from real estate contracts over a period of time in accordance with the requirements under Ind AS 115. | |
We tested controls over revenue recognition with specific focus on determination of percentage of completion, recording of costs incurred and estimation of costs to complete the remaining contract obligations. | |
We tested controls and management processes pertaining to recognition of revenue over a period of time in case of real estate projects. | |
We performed test of details, on a sample basis, and inspected the underlying customer contracts/ agreements evidencing the transfer of control of the asset to the customer based on which revenue is recognised over a period of time. | |
We assessed the disclosures included in standalone financial statements, as specified in Ind AS 115. | |
Assessing the carrying value of Inventory (as described in note 1.2.15 and 11 of the standalone financial statements) | |
As at March 31, 2024, the carrying value of the inventory of ongoing and completed real-estate projects is Rs 9,18,507.87 lakhs. The inventories are held at the lower of the cost and net realisable value ("NRV"). | Our audit procedures included, among others: |
The determination of NRV involves estimates based on prevailing market conditions and taking into account the stage of completion of the inventory, the estimated future selling price, cost to complete projects and selling costs. | We evaluated the design and operation of internal controls related to testing recoverable amounts with carrying amount of inventory, including evaluating management processes for estimating future costs to complete projects. |
We identified the assessment of the carrying value of inventory as a key audit matter due to the significance of the balance to the standalone financial statements as a whole and the involvement of estimates and judgement in the assessment. | As regards NRV, for a sample of selected projects, compared costs incurred and estimates of future cost to complete the project with costs of similar projects and compared NRV to recent sales or to the estimated selling price |
Tax litigations and exposures (as described in note 1.2.16 and 39.4 to the standalone financial statements) | |
The Company has various tax litigations/matters that are pending before tax authorities. The Company assesses such litigations/matters on a periodic basis and a provision or disclosure is made based on such assessment. | Our audit procedures included, among others: |
For the tax litigations/matters referred to in note 39.4, including the matter relating to application under section 245C of the Income Tax Act 1961 referred to in note 39.4 (iii) thereof, significant management judgement is required in assessing the exposure due to the inherent uncertainties as to likely outcome, and due to the nature and timeframe involved, taxation exposures are identified as a key audit matter. | We obtained an understanding of the CompanyRss process to identify claims, litigations and contingencies and the key controls implemented. For select controls, evaluated their design and tested their operating effectiveness. |
We obtained a list of tax litigations/matters from the Company and performed inquiries with the management, as to their likely outcome, financial impact and repetitiveness and obtained management representation thereon. | |
We examined evidences to corroborate managementRss assessment of the risk profile in respect of these matters including reading the CompanyRss submissions to relevant authorities and orders received in this regard. | |
In relation to the material tax litigations/matters, we involved our tax specialists, as appropriate, to perform an independent assessment of the conclusions reached by management. | |
We evaluated managementRss assumptions, estimates and judgements used in the calculations of such provisions. | |
We read the disclosures in the standalone financial statements to assess if they reflect the key facts and circumstances of the underlying tax exposures. |
OTHER INFORMATION
The CompanyRss Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report but does not include the standalone financial statements and our auditorRss report thereon.
Our opinion on the standalone 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 and, in doing so, consider whether such 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.
Responsibilities of Management for the Standalone Financial Statements
The CompanyRss 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 including other comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in equity of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) specified under section 133 of the Act read with the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015, as amended. 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 judgements 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 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, management is responsible for assessing the CompanyRss 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 CompanyRss financial reporting process.
AuditorRss 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 auditorRss 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 judgement and maintain professional skepticism 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 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 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 managementRss 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 CompanyRss ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditorRss report to the related disclosures in the 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 auditorRss 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.
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.
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 for the financial year ended March 31, 2024 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditorRss 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.

Re: Oberoi Realty Limited ("the Company")
Report on the Internal Financial Controls under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 of the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act")
We have audited the internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements of Oberoi Realty Limited ("the Company") as of March 31, 2024 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.
ManagementRss Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls
The CompanyRss Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India ("ICAI"). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to the CompanyRss policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.
AuditorRss Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the CompanyRss internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the "Guidance Note") and the Standards on Auditing, as specified under section 143(10) of the Act, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both issued by ICAI. Those Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements was established and maintained and if such controls operated effectively in all material respects.
Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the adequacy of the internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements and their operating effectiveness. Our audit of internal financial controls with reference to standalone financial statements included obtaining an understanding of internal financial controls with reference to these standalone financial statements, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. The procedures selected depend on the auditorRss judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
