Ourresponsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor'sResponsibility for the Audit of the Standalone Financial Statements section of our report.We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by theInstitute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the ethical requirementsthat are relevant to our audit of the standalone financial statements under the provisionsof the Act and the Rules made thereunder and we have fulfilled our other ethicalresponsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ICAI's Code of Ethics. Webelieve that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by thebranch auditors in terms of their report referred to in the Other Matters section belowis sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalonefinancial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that in our professional judgment were of mostsignificance 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 financialstatements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon and we do not provide aseparate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matters described below to bethe key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Sr. Key Audit Matter Auditor's Response
1 Revenue recognition and measurement in respect of unbilled receivables as at March 31 2021 Principal Audit Procedures
The Company in its contracts with customers promises to transfer distinct services ('performance obligations') which may be rendered in the form of back office processing claim processing and contact center services. Revenue is recognised upon transfer of control of promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services ('transaction price'). At each reporting date revenue is accrued for work performed that may not have been invoiced. Our audit procedures in relation to management's estimation of unbilled receivables included among others:
Recognition of revenue before acknowledgment of receipt of services by customer and not recognizing penalties for not meeting the service levels defined in the contract where applicable could result in an overstatement of revenue and correspondingly the profit. Accordingly we consider measurement of unbilled receivables as a key audit matter. • We gained an understanding of the Company's processes in collating the evidence supporting delivery of services for quantifying units of services that would be invoiced and the application of appropriate prices for each of such services.
• We tested the design and operating effectiveness of controls in collating the units of services delivered and in the application of accurate prices for each of such services.
• We have tested samples of unbilled receivables as at March 31 2021 with reference to the customer confirmations or reports from information systems that record the inputs relating to the services delivered to confirm the units of services delivered and contractual rates for the application of appropriate price for each of services.
• We extended our audit procedures to the date of approval of financial statements by the Board of Directors of the Company to verify the subsequent invoicing of the unbilled receivables. We have also determined whether adjustments if any are necessary upon receipt of approvals from customers for services delivered prior to March 31 2021 and / or collections against those.
• We have verified the ageing of unbilled receivables recognised to evaluate their reasonableness.
• With respect to the impact of possible disruption from the pandemic relating to COVID-19 we held discussions with business heads. We also verified correspondences with customers approving employees to work from home and where applicable waiver of the contractual penalties relating to service levels.
2 Accounting and disclosure of intercorporate deposits to the related parties (as described in note 12 and 39) Audit procedures included the following:
As described in note 12 and note 39 the Company has given intercorporate deposits to certain parties including related parties. • Obtained and read the Company's policies and procedures in respect of identification of related parties obtaining approval for intercorporate deposit related transactions recording and disclosure of related party transactions.
Accounting and disclosure of such transactions have been identified as a key audit matter due to significance of the such transactions and risk associated with recoverability and risk of such transactions not getting disclosed in the financial statements. • Tested such related party transactions and balances with the underlying contracts promissory note direct confirmation letters and other supporting documents provided by the Company.
• Inspected the Board and audit committee minutes providing an unanimous approval of all directors present in the meeting approving the investment of surplus funds of the Company in the unsecured intercorporate deposits to related parties including the promoter shareholders the terms thereof degree of credit risk associated with the respective borrowers the purpose and business rationale for giving intercorporate deposits and the arms' length interest rates considered.
• Verified that the intercorporate deposits granted are within the permissible limits specified in the Companies Act 2013.
• Inspected the Company Secretary's assessment and conclusion that there exists no conflict of interest of the independent directors of the Company approving these intercorporate deposits.
• Tested the repayment and fresh disbursement of the intercorporate deposits during the year with the bank statements
• Verified the classification of the intercorporate deposits as current assets considering these being granted for meeting the short term working capital requirements of the borrowers in the ordinary course of business and the terms of the intercorporate deposits being repayable on demand.
• Inspected management's and audit committee's evaluation of recoverability by reference to the audited or unaudited financial statements as applicable of the respective borrowers.
• Reviewed the disclosures in the financial statements to assess whether the disclosure is in accordance with Ind AS 24 Related Party Disclosure and under the Companies Act 2013.

Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor's Report Thereon

• The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. Theother information comprises the information included in the Director's report CorporateGovernance report and Management Discussion & Analysis Report but does not includethe consolidated financial statements standalone financial statements and our auditor'sreport thereon.

In preparing the standalone financial statements management is responsible forassessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern disclosing as applicablematters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unlessmanagement either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations or has norealistic alternative but to do so.

The Board of Directors are also responsible for overseeing the Company's financialreporting process.

Auditor's Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalonefinancial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement whether due to fraudor error and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuranceis a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements canarise from fraud or error and are considered material if individually or in theaggregate they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of userstaken on the basis of these standalone financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs we exercise professional judgment andmaintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the standalonefinancial statements whether due to fraud or error design and perform audit proceduresresponsive to those risks and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate toprovide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatementresulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error as fraud may involvecollusion forgery intentional omissions misrepresentations or the override of internalcontrol.

• Obtain an understanding of internal financial control relevant to the audit inorder to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section143(3)(i) of the Act we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether theCompany has adequate internal financial controls system in place and the operatingeffectiveness of such controls.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonablenessof accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basisof accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained whether a material uncertaintyexists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company'sability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty existswe are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures inthe standalone financial statements or if such disclosures are inadequate to modify ouropinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of ourauditor's report. However future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease tocontinue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation structure and content of the standalonefinancial statements including the disclosures and whether the standalone financialstatements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fairpresentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial informationof the Company and its branch to express an opinion on the standalone financialstatements. We are responsible for the direction supervision and performance of the auditof the financial statements of business activities included in the standalone financialstatements of which we are the independent auditors. For the business activities includedin the standalone financial statements which have been audited by the branch auditorssuch branch auditors remain responsible for the direction supervision and performance ofthe audit carried out by them. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

Materiality is the magnitude of misstatements in the standalone financial statementsthat individually or in aggregate makes it probable that the economic decisions of areasonably knowledgeable user of the standalone financial statements may be influenced. Weconsider quantitative materiality and qualitative factors in (i) planning the scope of ouraudit work and in evaluating the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect ofany identified misstatements in the standalone financial statements.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding among other matters theplanned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings including anysignificant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have compliedwith relevant ethical requirements regarding independence and to communicate with themall relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on ourindependence and where applicable related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance we determine thosematters that were of most significance in the audit of the standalone financial statementsof the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these mattersin our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about thematter or when in extremely rare circumstances we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonablybe expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
