Information Other than the Financial Statements and Auditor’s Report Thereon
The Management of ICICI Prudential Asset Management Limited and the Trustees (together referred to as the“Management”) are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the informationincluded in the Trustee report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any formof assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the 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 orour knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work wehave performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are requiredto report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
The Management is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair viewof the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Scheme in accordance with accountingprinciples generally accepted in India, including the accounting policies and standards specified in the NinthSchedule to the SEBI Regulations. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting recordsin accordance with the SEBI regulations for safeguarding of the assets of the Scheme and for preventing anddetecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; makingjudgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent, the design, implementation and maintenance ofadequate internal controls, that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of theaccounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a trueand fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Management is responsible for assessing the Scheme’s ability tocontinue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the goingconcern basis of accounting unless the Management either intends to liquidate the Scheme or to ceaseoperations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those Charged with Governance are also responsible for overseeing the Scheme’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are freefrom material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted inaccordance with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise fromfraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expectedto influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professionalskepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud orerror, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that issufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a materialmisstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involvecollusion, 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 thatare appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectivenessof internal control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimatesand related disclosures made by the Management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of the 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 conditionsthat may cast significant doubt on the Scheme’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude thata material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the relateddisclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Ourconclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However,future events or conditions may cause the Scheme to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including thedisclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in amanner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the Management, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit andsignificant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during ouraudit.
We also provide to the Management with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirementsregarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonablybe 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 wereof most significance in the audit of the financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2020 and aretherefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulationprecludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that amatter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so wouldreasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

significant accounting policies, which are in accordance with the SEBI Regulations and have been approved by the Boards of Directors of the AMC and the Trustee, are stated
below.
Transactions for purchase and sale of investments are recorded on trade date.
The cost of investments includes all costs incurred in acquiring the investments and incidental to acquisition of investments e.g. brokerage, transaction costs, CCIL charges
and any other charges customarily included in the broker’s note.
In case of purchase of interest bearing securities, if interest is paid for the period from the last interest due date upto the date of Settlement,the same is treated as interest
receivable and debited to 'Accrued Income’ and in case of sale, if interest is received for the period from the last interest due date upto the date of Settlement,the same is
credited to ‘Accrued Income’.
During the FY 19-20, the cost of Investments is net of front-end fees and incentives effective from 18th November 2019 onwards, prior to which it was recognized as income.
In case of devolvement, the cost is net of underwriting commission earned. In case of physical gold, the acquisition cost includes various levies like customs duty, stamp duty,
and other charges, as applicable. Investments in Foreign securities are accounted at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of accounting the trade. Differences in exchange
rate till settlement are recognised as foreign exchange gain /loss.
Where any security is purchased by any scheme of Mutual Fund and the security level price from the agency(ies) appointed by AMFI is not available on that day, such
security shall be valued on amortization basis considering the weighted average purchase yield on that day and till the day preceding the next business day.
Investment in gold is valued at the AM fixing price of gold quoted on the London Bullion Market Association [LBMA] declared in US Dollars as increased by premium

AMC shall select the appropriate stock exchange at the time of launch of a scheme in case a security is listed on more than one stock exchange and the reasons for
the selection will be recorded in writing. Any subsequent change in the reference stock exchange used for valuation will be necessarily backed by reasons for such
change being recorded in writing by the AMC. However, in case of extreme volatility in other markets post the closure of the relevant markets, the AMC shall value
the security at suitable fair value.
