Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the 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.

Key Audit Matter

Revenue Recognition: Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange tor those goods. Revenue is measured based on the transaction price, which is the consideration, adjusted for volume discounts, rebates, scheme allowances, price concessions, incentives, and returns, if any, as specified in the contracts with the customers. The risk is, therefore, that revenue may not be recognized in the correct period or that revenue and associated profit is misstated.

Auditors Re s p arise

Our audit procedures included the following: - Understanding the policies and procedures applied to revenue recognition, as well as compliance thereof, including an analysis of the effectiveness of controls related to revenue recognition processes employed by the Company. On sample basis, examining supporting documents For the sales transaction occurring during the year a nji near the end of the accounting period including the credit notes issued after period end to verify the occurrence and accuracy of revenue, whether revenue recording was consistent with the conditions, and whcLher it was in compliance with the Companys Policy. - Performed analytical procedure Lo identify Lhe unusual trends and also tested journal entries recognized in revenue focusing on unusual or irregular transactions. - On sample basis, examining supporting documents/approvats and ca leulation of discounts, claims, rebates etc.
