We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of ALCHEMIST LIMITED (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31stMarch, 2016, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow Statement, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information for the year then ended.

Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone 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 the 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 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 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 there under. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 the 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 the 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 qualified audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

The Company has not complied with the provisions of proviso to sub section 2 of Section 55 of the Act as out of the total value of preference shares (including premium) amounting to '' 53.56 lacs redeemed during the year, '' 51.34 lacs has been redeemed otherwise than out of the profits of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of such redemption.

The Company has computed the Depreciation on the tangible fixed assets using straight line method based on the useful life of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 and the management estimates of useful life for tangible and intangible assets not covered by the Schedule II. However, for the assets purchased/commissioned prior to 1st April, 2010, the purchase date of assets has been considered as 1st April, 2010. The same is in violation of Accounting Standard 6-Depreciation Accounting as this treatment not only enhances the useful life of the assets that have already been consumed but has an effect over the depreciation computed. The loss to that extent is under/over stated and similarly the assets, the effect however could not be quantified.

The Company has not made any provision on the export receivables amounting to '' 47363.02 lacs outstanding for more than a year as at the yearend date. The loss to that extent is under stated and similarly the receivables, the effect however could not be quantified.

We were engaged to audit the internal financial controls over financial reporting of Alchemist Limited (“the Company”) as of 31st March, 2016 in conjunction with our audit of the standalone financial statements of the Company for the year ended on that date.

Management’s Responsibility for Internal Financial Controls

The Company''s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal financial controls based on the internal control over financial reporting criteria established by the Company considering the essential components of internal control stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI''). These responsibilities include the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company''s internal financial controls over financial reporting based on our audit conducted in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance Note”) and the Standards on Auditing, issued by ICAI and deemed to be prescribed under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent applicable to an audit of internal financial controls, both applicable to an audit of Internal Financial Controls and, both issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

Because of matter described in Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph below, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on internal financial controls system over financial reporting of the Company.

Meaning of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting

A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company''s internal financial control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company''s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Disclaimer of Opinion

According to information and explanation given to us, the company is under the process of establishing its internal financial controls over financial reporting on criteria based on or considering the essential components of internal control stated in Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Because of this reason, we are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for our opinion whether the Company had adequate internal financial control over financial reporting and whether such internal financial controls were operating effectively as at March 31st, 2016.

We have considered the disclaimer reported in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the standalone financial statements of the company, and the disclaimer does not affect our opinion on the standalone financial statements of the company.

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of ALCHEMIST LIMITED ("the Company"), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss, the Cash Flow Statement, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information for the year then ended.

Management's Responsibility for the Standalone 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 the 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 preparation of the Act for safeguarding 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 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 there under.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 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 the 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, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial control system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the 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 qualified audit opinion on the standalone financial statements.

Basis for Qualified Opinion

The Company has not complied with the provisions of proviso to sub section 2 of Section 55 of the Act as out of the total value of preference shares (including premium) amounting to Rs. 102.20 lacs redeemed during the year, Rs. 96.84 lacs has been redeemed otherwise than out of the profits of the Company which would otherwise be available for dividend or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of such redemption. The Company has advanced as loan an amount of Rs. 13532.17lacs to 16 parties as interest free unsecured loan, the same is in violation of sub section 7 of Section 186 of the Act. The sub section requires that "No loan shall be given under this section at a rate lower than the prevailing yield of one year, three year, five year or ten year Government Security closest to the tenor of the loan".

The Company has computed the Depreciation on the tangible fixed assets using straight line method based on the useful life of the assets as prescribed in Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 and the management estimates of useful life for tangible and intangible assets not covered by the Schedule II. However, for the assets purchased/commissioned prior to 1st April, 2010, the purchase date of assets has been considered as 1st April, 2010. The same is in violation of Accounting Standard 6-Depreciation Accounting as this treatment not only enhances the useful life of the assets that have already been consumed but has an effect over the depreciation computed. The loss to that extent is under/over stated and similarly the assets, the effect however could not be quantified.

Qualified Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, except for the effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph above, the aforesaid 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 at 31st March, 2015, and its loss and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.

Emphasis of Matters

In respect of export receivables, credit has been extended for export sales and regular follow up is being done to recover the amounts from all the parties involved. The management is confident of recovering all these dues and hence no provision is considered necessary against these receivables as of now".

In our opinion the periodicity of the physical verification is reasonable having regard to the size of the Company and nature of its assets. However, since the fixed asset register does not specify the quantity and exact location of fixed assets, the comparison of the fixed assets identified during physical verification with the fixed asset register has not been done. Accordingly, variation could not have been noticed and hence no adjustment was made in the books.

(ii) (a) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, inventories have been physically verified during the year by the management at reasonable intervals except for the work in progress inventory.

(b) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, the procedures of physical verification of inventories followed by the management are reasonable and adequate in relation to the size of the Company and the nature of its business.

(c) In our opinion and on the basis of our examination of the records, the Company is generally maintaining proper records of its inventories except for the work in progress inventory.

(iv) In our opinion and according to the information and explanations given to us, there is an adequate internal control procedure commensurate with the size of the Company and the nature of its business, for the purchase of inventories & fixed assets and payment for expenses & for the sale of goods and services. During the course of our audit, no major instance of continuing failure to correct any weaknesses in the internal controls has been noticed.

(v) The Company has not accepted deposits. Hence the provisions of Section 73 to 76 or any other relevant provisions of the Act and the rules framed there under are not applicable to the Company.
