Balance Sheet as at September 30, 2013, and the Statement of Proft and
Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended, and a summary of

the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant

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 fnancial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with
ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the fnancial statements are free

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about

Basis for Qualifed Opinion:
The management has not made provision for interest of

payment of interest and incidental cost that is payable as per order of
Debt Recovery Tribunal dated 26/08/2011 for the period(01/07/2004 to
26/07/2011),which constitute a departure from the accounting standards
referred to in sub-section (3C) of section 211 of Companies Act 1956.
The company''s records indicate that, had management provided above
provisions in books, the Indirect Expenses would have gone up by
Rs.88,69,620/-. Accordingly, net proft and shareholder''s fund would
have been reduced by the said fgure.
