2. As approved by the Share holders in the ECM dated 09.10.202 1, for settlement of the advances recoverable
from MBDL, the Company has
to acquire / take over certain business and immovable properties of MBDL.
The Company has entered into Registered Sale agreements along with Registered General Power of
Attorney
with right to sell, receive entire sale consideration and appropriate for its own, with MBDL for transfer of
certain
assets in pursuance of the Scheme approved by the Shareholders. On enquiry with the management,
it was clarified that it is the industry practice of transferring land prevailing in Tamil Nadu and legal opinion
has been obtained in this regard, however We are of the opinion that including the said land under inventory
is not correct as per Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

3. The company did not obtain/receive balance confirmation from many vendors/parties including loans and
advances other than related parties for the balances as on 31st March, 2023. We could not obtain external
confirmations as required in SA-505 Standards on Auditing and are unable
to comment on adjustments or
disclosures if any that may arise.

4. Transfer of properties at Ozhalur & Irukkandrampally is yet to be implemented as per the scheme approved
by Shareholders on 09.10.202 1. The Management clarified that the process of the transfer of the properties is
possible only after the transfer of License since the said land is adjacent to the Distillery. Hence the respective
sale consideration of Rs. 16200 Lakhs are being shown as "Outstanding" from Mohan Breweries & Distilleries
Limited (MBDL) as on 31.03.2023.

5. Rs. 4539.05 lakhs is the amount of outstanding in Trade!project advances to various parties for a period

(Land) has not been transferred from the Company. On enquiry, it was noted that though the title
to the land
is not transferred, Sankhlecha Infra Projects Private Ltd has taken possession of the land and completed the
construction activities thereon without payment of the balance amount of Rs 1912.00 Lakhs as per the Sale
Agreement between the Company and Sankhlecha Infra Projects Private Ltd. However, the management
clarified that the land will be registered on receipt of balance payment.

school against which 40% share has to be received by the Company

from SPR Construction Pvt Ltd, the consequential effect on the Financials of the Company is not ascertained.

10. Vide clause No.12 of the Joint Development Agreement with SPR Construction Pvt Ltd., the minimum sale
price is fixed periodically. However, we have observed that in some cases, sale deeds have been registered
without adhering to the sale price strategy. Consequential impact on the revenue from operation is not
ascertained.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing (SAs) specified under section 143(10)
of the Act. Our responsibilities under those Standards are further described in the Auditor''s Responsibilities

Management Response

For the qualifications made by the Auditors in their Audit Report, your Board of Directors would like to reply/clarify

pointwise as under :

1) Necessary Accounting Records including the Audited Financials of MBDL from whom the Distillery has
been taken over are being arranged for Auditors'' verification and the same will be duly reconciled with our
records.

2) The Company has acquired/taken over certain business and immovable properties from MBDL as per the
Scheme approved by the Shareholders of the Company in its ECM held on 9.10.2021 by entering into
registered Sale Agreement and registered Power of Attorney (POA) with rights to sell, receive the entire Sale
Consideration of the land and appropriate for its own and the same is as per the practice prevailing in the
Real Estate Industry in Tamil Nadu and necessary Legal Opinion has been obtained by the Company in
confirmation of the same.

3) Necessary steps are being taken to obtain the Confirmation of Balance from rest of the parties also.

4) Out of 112 acres of lands situated in Ozhalur and Irungundrampalli Villages, Chingleput of MBDL being taken
over by the Company as per the Scheme approved by the Shareholders in its ECM held on 9.10.21 for a total
sale consideration of Rs.16200 lakhs, 19.77 acres of Ozhalur land for a Sale Consideration of Rs.2467.75
lakhs have been registered in the month of November 2023 vide Sale Agreement dt.3.11.2023 and the
Company is in the process of registering the balance lands.

5) Necessary steps are being taken including legal action for recovery of Rs.4539.05 lakhs being referred as

6) An amount of Rs.290.73 lakhs have been incurred by the Company as Incidental Expenses for certain
approvals from the Government Authorities.

7) Only upon receipt of the balance Sale Consideration of Rs.1912 lakhs, the land will be registered.

8) SPR has constructed a School in the JDA land, but has leased it to their own Trust for 30 years without our
consent. Binny is eligible for 40% revenue share from the School, but SPR has not disclosed the accounts nor
shared the revenue with Binny.
We are seeking the intervention of the Hon''ble High Court to void the illegal
lease of JDA land and built-up area.

9) The matter is in Court / Tribunal and the Honourable High Court Single Judge had given an order to Binny
not
to write to banks. But in Division Bench, the Company got an approval to write, if the bank questions
or writes to us.
We are further seeking modification from the Division Bench to allow us to write and give us
clarifications of loans outstanding.

10) Binny has already got Single Judge, Division Bench and Arbitral Tribunal Order that Individual Customers''
Statement of Accounts and CRM data signed by SPR and the 3000 customers who have purchased the
Apartments, Villas, Shops and Offices from the beginning must be fully given. The Sales Price Strategy that
SPR has submitted in Court does not tally with the Original Sales Price Strategy signed by Binny which
captures clearly the quarter it was signed and resonates with the signed JDA. Once SPR provides all the
details as directed by the Hon''ble High Court and Tribunal, it will be reconciled with the Original Sales Price
Strategy and we will take into consideration the prevailing market price which is captured in the channel
partners'' sales portals with which we will be able to ascertain our revenue share.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

As reported in the previous year''s Directors Report, the Company ceased the operation of Container Freight Station (CFS) with effect from May 2012 and since then, has been carrying on the general warehousing operation in the said CFS land with about 120 godowns.

The Board has approved in its Board Meeting held on 1st December 2014 a proposal of the Company for developing an integrated township in the CFS land area of 63.89 acres, where the general warehousing activity was carried on. Consequently, the Company discontinued the general warehousing operation with effect from 1st January 2015 and all the godowns have been completely vacated in the months of January/February 2015. Due to the total discontinuance of general warehousing operations, there is no rental income, except a meager amount of Rs.36.36 lakhs as against Rs.12.50 lakhs earned in the previous year.

The sale of land amounting to Rs.6117.54 lakhs constitutes major revenue for the year and the Company has reported a profit of Rs.3353.26 lakhs before Tax (PBT) during the year.

After adjusting the provision for tax to the tune of Rs.2699.35 lakhs, the net profit for the year is Rs.653.91 lakhs (PAT). Joint Development Agreement (JDA) With M/s.SPR Construction Pvt. Ltd.

You are aware that the Company is embarked upon development of a World-class Integrated Township on Joint Development Model, in its main land area of 63.89 acres (previously used for CFS operations) at Perambur. For the same, the Company has entered into a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) on 26.6.2015 on revenue sharing model with M/s. SPR Construction Private Limited., Chennai.

The mixed use development is the first-of-its-kind township located in a prime location and is based on the concept of building a destination "Where Business Meets Life". Planned around combining professional workspaces and living spaces into one gated arena, it includes a separate residential development, an organized wholesale center, along with a Retail Mall, School, Convention Center and Entertainment Area. The joint venture between Binny Ltd. and SPR Group believes it can utilize the opportunity presented by the current physical and social infrastructure bottlenecks faced in Sowcarpet (South India''s largest wholesale market) located at just 3 kms from the Project Site. The Site has easy road access on all four sides, and is the only private land of this scale in close proximity to the city''s wholesale markets. The development of the wholesale center on the site will prove to be an extension/ alternative to the Sowcarpet market and is expected to become a trading hub not only for the Chennai city, but also the entire South India, given its proximity to Chennai Port.

The Project has already received great levels of expression of interest from all quarters. Its residential phase and wholesale market development has already received all the requisite approvals and RERA registration, with other developments expected to obtain the same in the next few months. The Project shall be developed over a period of 7-9 years in a phased manner. Work on the first phase has already begun and is proceeding at a steady pace.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

As reported in the previous year''s Director Report, the Company ceased the operation of Container Freight Station (CFS) with effect from May 2012 and since then, has been carrying on the general warehousing operation in the said CFS land with about 120 godowns.

The Board has approved in its Board Meeting held on 1st December 2014 a proposal of the Company for developing an integrated township in the CFS land area of 63.89 acres, where the general warehousing activity was carried on. Consequently, the Company discontinued the general warehousing operation with effect from 1st January 2015 and all the godowns have been completely vacated in the months of January/February 2015. Due to the total discontinuance of general warehousing operations, there is no rental income, except a meager amount of Rs.4.53 lakhs as against Rs.718.61 lakhs earned in the previous year. The sale of building material as Scrap amounting to Rs.162.78 lakhs mainly constitutes Revenue. The expenditure has gone up to Rs.1033.83 lakhs from Rs.527.06 lakhs mainly on account of increase in the financial cost to the tune of Rs.247.50 lakhs and write-off of Fixed Assets (Building) to the tune of Rs.199.81 lakhs.

As a result, the Company has incurred a loss of Rs.871.20 lakhs during the year.

JOINT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (JDA) WITH M/S.SPR CONSTRUCTION PVT.LTD.

You are aware that the Company is embarked upon development of a World-class Integrated Township on Joint Development Model, in its main land area of 63.89 acres (previously used for CFS operations) at Perambur. For the same, the Company has entered into a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) on 26.6.2015 on revenue sharing model with M/s.SPR Construction Pvt. Ltd., Chennai.

The integrated township is planned around a development of a wholesale market ecosystem, co-location of Residential Project development within the township, in addition to being serviced by the finest brands in Healthcare, Hospitality, Education and Entertainment. The project also envisages construction of a Marriage Hall and a Mall. The Project is expected to start by end of this year and shall be developed over a period of 7-9 years in a phased manner, wherein first phase is expected to be delivered in 36-42 months from the start of the construction.

Due to its proximity to the Chennai railway station and Chennai Port, Binny Ltd and SPR Group believe that this project can create an opportunity from the current physical and social infrastructure problems and lack of availability of legal premises in Sowcarpet (South India''s largest Wholesale Market) located at just 3 kms. away from the Project Site. Management believes that this property of 63.89 acres having road access from all four sides is the only such large private land within close proximity, thus presenting a strong opportunity for development of wholesale market as an extension / alternative / parallel to Sowcarpet market and also a fully integrated residential township with School, Hospital, Convention cum cultural Centre with 3500 seating capacity and Retail Mall & Entertainment Area.

This development will be based on the concept of a smart city with a vision of "Where Business Meets Life". The expected size of development under current CMDA regulations would be based on 2.5 Basic FSI 1 premium FSI (subject to approvals). Currently Ernst and Young is undertaking a study for analyzing social-cost benefit for creating an alternative to Sowcarpet and suggesting measures to be pursued with Government Authorities to revitalize existing infrastructure and surrounding of the site.

The project also envisages construction of Marriage hall, and a Mall. The Project is expected to start by early next year and shall be developed over a period of 7-9 years in a phased manner wherein first phase is expected to be delivered in 36-42 months from the start of construction.

Binny Ltd and SPR Group believes that it can leverage on the opportunity that arises from the current physical and social infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of availability of legal premises in the precinct to Sowcarpet (South India's largest Wholesale Market) which is located just 3 kms away from the Project Site. The Management believes that the property of 63.89 acres having road access from all four sides is the only such large private land within close proximity, and thus presents a strong opportunity for development of alternate wholesale market.

The whole development will be based on concept of smart city with its vision of "Where Business Meets Life". Expected Size of development under current CMDA Regulations would be based on prevailing CMDA norms which are subject to approval. Presently, Ernst and Young is undertaking a study for analyzing socio-economic benefit for creating an alternative to Sowcarpet and suggesting measures to be pursued with Government Authorities to revitalize existing infrastructure and facilitate development of the area.
