HCL TECH Auditors Report



We have audited the accompanying Standalone Financial Statements of HCL
Technologies Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet
as at March 31, 2016, the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow
Statement for the financial year (nine months period - July 1, 2015 to
March 31, 2016) then ended, and a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.

Management''''s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Company''''s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated
in Section 134(5) of the Companies Act, 2013 ("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 and
cash flows of the Company in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards
specified under section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7 of the
Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. 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 the design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial control
that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and
presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view
and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor''''s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these Standalone
Financial Statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the
provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and
matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the
provisions of the Act and the Rules made thereunder. We conducted our
audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing, issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India, as specified under Section
143(10) of the Act. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical
requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures
selected depend on the auditor''''s judgment, including the assessment of
the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal financial control relevant to the Company''''s
preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting
estimates made by the Company''''s Directors, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the financial statements. 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.

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the
explanations given to us, the Standalone Financial Statements give the
information required by 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

year ended on that date.
