Key audit matters

4. Key audit matters 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.

(a) Revenue Recognition

(Refer Note 19 to the Standalone Financial Statements)

The Company recognises its revenue based on Ind-AS 115 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers".

Management uses judgement in respect of matters such as identification of performance obligations, allocation of and consideration to identified recognition of revenue over a period of time or at a point in time based on timing when control is transferred to the customer.

We considered this area as a key audit matter, as revenue is required to be recognised in accordance with the terms of the customer contracts, which involves significant management judgement as described above and thus there is an inherent risk of material misstatement.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our testing of revenue transactions was designed to cover certain customer contracts on a sample basis. Our audit procedures included the following:

Understanding and evaluating the design and testing the operating effectiveness of controls over revenue recognition.

Assessing appropriateness of management?s judgements in accounting for identified contracts such as: accounting policies and other o Identification of performance obligation and allocation of consideration to identified performance obligation;

o Evaluating the contract terms for assessment of the timing of transfer of control to the customer to assess whether revenue is recognised appropriately over a period of time or at a point in time (as the case may be) based on timing when control is transferred to customer; oftheCompanyasatMarch o Testing whether the revenue recognition is in line with the terms of customer contracts and the transfer of control; and

o Evaluating adequacy of the presentation and disclosures.

Based on the above stated procedures, no significant exceptions under Section 143(10) of the Act. Our were noted in revenue recognition including those relating to presentation and disclosures as required by Ind AS 115.

(b) Valuation of intangible assets and goodwill identified on acquisition of refractory business of Hi-Tech Chemicals Limited

(Refer Note 40 to the Standalone Financial Statements)

Pursuant to a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) executed with Hi-Tech Chemicals Limited ("Hi-Tech"), the Company acquired the refractory business of Hi-Tech by way of a slump sale on a going concern basis on January 31, 2023, for an aggregate consideration of Rs 87,937.65 lacs. The acquisition was determined to be a business combination and accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method prescribed under Ind AS 103 ‘Business Combinations?. The acquisition inter-alia resulted in recognition of intangible assets aggregating to Rs 16,328.32 lacs and a goodwill of Rs 36,724.63 lacs as at the acquisition-date.

Significant management judgement is involved in the identification of identifiable assets, including those assets that meet the definition of, and recognition criteria for, intangible assets in accordance with Ind AS 38 ‘Intangible Assets?, and their valuation and determination of the resultant goodwill based on allocation of the purchase price on fair values of the identified assets and liabilities. The management engaged independent valuers ("management?s experts") for carrying out the valuation.

We considered this area as a key audit matter, due to the significant management and valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, determining the key assumptions underlying such valuation such as the revenue growth rates, customer churn rates, EBITDA growth rates (primarily synergies), capital expenditures, weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these assumptions can have a material impact on the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our audit procedures included the following:

Obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of management?s controls over accounting for business combinations.

Read the BTA and other documents related to acquisition in order to obtain an understanding of the transaction in accordance with Ind AS 103 and to verify the consideration paid.

Assessed the competence, capabilities and objectivity of management?s experts, perused the report issued by them and evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation model and underlying assumptions considered by them.

Tested the fair value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets, with the assistance of auditor?s valuation experts, which involved:

o evaluation of the prospective financialinformation used in the valuation models, testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data and evaluation of the valuation methodology.

Standalone Financial Statements in accordance with Ind AS 103.

Based on the above stated procedures, no significant exceptions were noted in valuation of intangible assets and resulting goodwill identified on the acquisition.

(Refer Note 28 to the Standalone Financial Statements)

The Company has equity investments in subsidiaries carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses of Rs 171,788.30 lacs. During the year, the Company has recorded an impairment of Rs 66,068.22 lacs.

The Company reviews the carrying values of these investments at every balance sheet date and where there is an indication of impairment, the carrying value is assessed for impairment in accordance with Ind AS 36 ‘Impairment of Assets?, and an impairment provision is recognised, where applicable. The management has determined each of the subsidiaries as a separate cash generating unit ("CGU") for the purpose of impairment assessment, and with the involvement of independent valuation experts ("management?s experts"), the recoverable value of the CGUs has been determined.

The assessment of carrying value of investments has been considered a key audit matter as the determination of recoverable value of the CGU involves significant management judgement and estimates such as future expected level of operations and related forecast of cash flows, market conditions, discount rates, terminal growth rate etc.

5. The Company?s 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 auditor?s report thereon.

The Annual report 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 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 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 Annual report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and take appropriate action as applicable under the relevant laws and regulations.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the Standalone Financial Statements.

6. The Company?s 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 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.

7. In preparing the Standalone Financial Statements, management is 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 Standalone Financial Statements

8. 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.

9. 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 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 financialcontrols with internal reference to Standalone 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 doubt on the Company?s ability 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 orforensuringthe 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.

10. 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.

11. 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.

12. 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.
