We do not express an opinion on the accompanying standalone Ind AS financial statements of the Company. Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion section of our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on this standalone Ind AS Financial Statements.
Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
(a) We draw attention to Note No. 38 and 45 of the financial statement regarding commencement of Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Act, 2016 and appointment of Interim Resolution Professional (IRP) to carry function as mentioned under the Code. Consequently, the powers of Board stand suspended and are exercised by the IRP in line with the provisions of the Code. Subsequent to issue of public announcement by IRP, the claims submitted by the financial and operational creditors have been collated by the IRP and no accounting adjustment has been carried out for any excess, short or non-receipt of claims from operational and financial creditors.
(b) We draw attention to Note No. 17(B)(2) and 17(B)(3) of financial statement regarding default in repayment of loans and interest to banks (including ARC) owing to which the banks have classified the account as NPA and recalled its loans and has initiated various legal actions for recovery of its dues including legal action initiated under SARFESI Act, The Recovery of Debts due to Banks and Financial Institution Act, 1993. The outstanding loans, credit balances and interest due to banks (including ARC) amounting to Rs. 17710.38 lacs and adhoc / repayment of loan amount to an asset reconstruction company (ARC) of Rs. 1405.61 lacs for which no confirmation/ statements have been provided to us are subject to reconciliation and subsequent adjustments.
(c) Refer Note No. 9(a) and (b) of financial statement regarding non-provision of the expected credit loss/ impairment relating to overdue Trade Receivables of Rs. 69775.76 Lacs as per the requirement of Ind- AS 109 âFinancial Instrumentsâ. In view of defaults in payment obligations by the Trade Receivables on due date, non-recoveries from Trade Receivables, nonreceipt of confirmations/ reconciliation from Trade receivables, initiation of legal action/ suits against Trade Receivables by the company, notices/ summon to the Company from Enforcement Directorate, Reserve Bank of India, Development Commissioner of Surat SEZ and in absence of clear forward looking information regarding outcome of pending legal actions initiated and time frame and quantum of realisability of these Trade receivables, we are unable to determine the amount of expected credit loss/ impairment based on provision matrix as per the requirements of Ind-AS 109 âFinancial Instrumentsâ and its consequential impact, on the financial results.
(d) Trade payables and other payables amounting to Rs. 29717.66 lacs are outstanding since long for which neither any confirmation have been provided nor are we aware of any legal action initiated by the vendors against the Company. In absence of current status and relevant details, we are unable to comment on the payment obligation in this regard and its consequential impact on the financial statements.
(e) Refer Note No. 17(B)(2) regarding default in repayment of loans taken from the banks and non-provision of interest on such loans and consequently based on the calculation done by the management total interest amounting to Rs. 20979.19 Lacs determined at estimated rates, have not been provided for in the books of accounts including interest amounting to Rs. 2730.80 Lacs for year ended on March 31,2023. Accordingly, finance cost for the year ended on March 31,2023 is understated by Rs. 2730.80 lacs.
(f) Refer Note No. 9(b), 18(b) and 5(a) of the financial statement wherein, the company has not translated following monetary items denominated in foreign currency as at year ended closing rate and has been carried forward at the rate as at 31st March 2015, 31st March 2016, and / or 31st March 2017, which is not in accordance with Ind-AS -21 âThe Effect of changes in Foreign Exchange Ratesâ and accounting policy followed by the Company.
i. Trade receivable amounting to Rs. 69,703.18 lacs
ii. Trade payables and other payable amounting to Rs. 29717.66 lacs
iii. Loans to subsidiary (including accrued interest) amounting to Rs. 2062.30 lacs
The company has not provided for cumulative exchange gain (net) on the above items amounting to Rs. 12793.91 lacs including exchange gain of Rs. 4361.32 lacs pertaining to the year ended on March 31, 2023 respectively. Accordingly, exchange gain is understated by Rs. 4361.32 for the year ended March 31,2023.
(g) The Company has made provision for expected credited loss of Rs. 812.35 Lacs against the interest receivable on loan from a subsidiary and has recognized loss of Rs. 49.00 lacs on current investment designated through FVTPL. No deferred tax assets thereon amounting to Rs. 216.79 lacs have been recognized which is not in accordance with Ind AS-12 âIncome Taxes.
Had the exchange difference as stated in para (f) above and deferred tax thereon and interest on loans as stated in para (e) above been provided, the loss before tax for the year would have been decreased by Rs. 1630.52 Lacs respectively. Consequently, the overstatement and understatement of assets and liabilities are as under: -

Due to uncertainties with respect to settlement of bank dues and interest, adjustments of trade receivables and payables and its consequential impact on taxation thereof, we are unable to ascertain the tax impact and liability, on the financial results.
(h) Refer Note No. 5(b) and 41 (c) of the financial statement, no provision for the expected credit loss/ impairment on loan to a subsidiary amounting to Rs. 1249.95 Lacs has been recognized as per the requirement of Ind- AS 109 âFinancial Instrumentsâ. The net worth of above subsidiary is negative and based on reasonable and supportable information regarding the current financial status and business condition of the subsidiary, there has been significant increase in credit risk and there could be delay/default in recovery of this amount. Considering the above, we are unable to comment on the amount of expected credit loss/ impairment and its consequential impact, on the financial results.
(i) The Inventory has been taken on the basis of physical verification carried out by the management (including inventory lying with franchisees on approval basis) as at the year end and its valuation is based on determination of estimated net realizable value and specific identification which involves technical judgment of management. In the absence of any valuation by an independent expert, we have relied upon by the physical verification and valuation of the Inventory as certified and determined by the management.
(j) Refer Note No. 41(b) of the financial statement regarding investment of Rs. 2.03 lacs in its subsidiary namely M.B. Diamonds LLC and Rs. 7.44 lacs in its subsidiary namely Goenka Diamond and Jewels DMCC, the net-worth of these subsidiaries is negative. The Company has not made any provision for Impairment against these investments and advance.
(k) Balances with Banks amounting to Rs. 1.55 lacs (debit balances), Other non-current deposits amounting to Rs. 13.23 lacs, other current assets (balance with government authorities) amounting to Rs. 32.48 lacs, Other Current Assets and Liabilities are subject to confirmations and consequential adjustment thereof.
(l) The company has made provision for Impairment of Residential flat/office building at Jaipur having gross block of Rs. 19.72 lacs (WDV of Rs. 5.34 lacs), for which the company neither has possession of such assets nor have any title deeds/ agreement.
Material Uncertainty related to going concern
The Companyâs operating results have been materially affected due to various factors including non-realization of unconfirmed Trade receivables, defaults in repayment of loans and interest to banks, non-availability of finance due to recall of loans by banks in consortium, legal actions/ insolvency proceedings initiated by banks against company for recovery of its dues, notices/ summon to company/director(s) from Enforcement Directorate, Reserve Bank of India, Development Commissioner of Surat SEZ and from other regulatory authorities, commencement of CIRP proceedings as stated in Note No. 1, Debt Recovery Tribunals and other courts for recovery of banks dues and possession/attachment/sale of companyâs properties, assignment and transfer of dues in favor of an asset reconstruction company (ARC), pending income tax demands and consequent attachment of bank accounts by Income tax department, reliance on occasional sales for meeting out expenses, overall substantial decrease in volume of business and sales, non-payment of statutory dues and taxes, overdue unconfirmed trade payable, non-realization of loan and interest thereon from a subsidiary etc. We are also unable to determine the impact of actions and forthcoming actions that may be taken by various legal and statutory authorities due to various factors mentioned herein above. These events cause significant doubts on the ability of the company to continue as a going concern. The appropriateness of the going concern assumption is dependent on the companyâs ability to raise adequate finance from alternative means, settlement of its due from banks and ARC, outcome of CIRP process and recoveries from overseas Trade Receivables to meet its short term and long term obligations as well as to establish consistent business operation. The above situation indicates that material uncertainty exist that cast significant doubt on companyâs ability to continue as a going concern.
Because of the significance of the matters described above in the âBasis of Disclaimer of Opinionâ section of our report, absence of sufficient appropriate audit evidences and Material uncertainty related to Going Concern paragraph above, it is not possible to form an opinion on the financial statements due to the potential interaction of the multiple uncertainties and their possible cumulative effect on the financial statements. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the financial statements.

We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of
Goenka Diamond and Jewels Limited ("the Company"), which comprise the
Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2015, the Statement of Profit and Loss,
the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended and a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
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 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 design,
implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls
and ensuring their operating effectiveness and the accuracy and
completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and
presentation of the standalone 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 standalone financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about
the amounts and disclosures in the standalone financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone
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 standalone 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 controls system over financial reporting
and the operating effectiveness of such controls. 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
standalone 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.
Basis of Qualified Opinion
Refer Note No. 16 (footnote) of Notes on financial statements regarding
Trade Receivables amounting to Rs.6,27,82,40,130/-which includes
Rs.5,38,73,16,029/- outstanding for more than 6 months from due date.
Though, confirmations amounting to Rs.3,61,66,47,379/- were received
from Trade receivables on request by the management, there have been
defaults on payment obligations by the debtors on due date and
recoveries from these debtors are not significant. In view of the above
we are unable to comment on the realisability of the debts and any
provision to be made for unrealisability of these balances and the
consequential impact, on the financial statements.
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, its
profit and its cash flows for the year ended on that date.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to
i. Significant Accounting Policies No. 1(F) regarding Inventories
wherein the determination of estimated net realizable value and
specification identification involves technical judgment of the
management which has been relied upon by us.
ii. Note No.37 (a) of Notes on Financial statements regarding dispute
which has arisen in earlier year amongst promoters subsequent to which
various allegations/counter allegation and legal cases were made amongst
promoters and on the company. Thereafter, the promoters arrived at
family settlement agreement, the terms and conditions of which are
partially executed. The management has confirmed that there is no impact
of above incidences on the financial statements of the company.
iii. Refer Note No.37 (b) regarding non-realization of debtors, overall
substantial decrease in volume of business and sales, non-payment of
statutory dues and taxes, overdue creditors, defaults in repayment of
loans and interest owing to which some banks have classified account as
NPA, dispute amongst promoters. Though the company has made profits for
the year, these factors indicate liquidity crunch faced by the company
and therefore its future operations are largely dependent on recoveries
from overseas debtors, infusion of fresh capital and restructuring/
release of additional working capital from banks.
iv. Note No.37 (c) of the Notes on Financial Statements wherein
certain banks have classified its advance to company as NPA and are not
charging interest or have reversed the interest earlier charged. In
order to account all probable liabilities the management in its best
judgment has provided interest on such borrowings. Further, the company
has not provided for Rs. 1,49,61,987/- on account of excess interest
charged by one of the banks against which company has made
representation. The management is of the opinion that any difference on
account of interest, penal interest shall be accounted for as and when
the interest is charged or settled by the banks.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

Director, and taken on record by the Board of Directors, none of other

unable to comment of the said clause in respect of Mr. Nitin Goenka,
Managing Director of the Company as no written representation was
received from him as on March 31, 2015.
f. With respect to the other matters to be included in the Auditor's
Report in accordance with Rule 11 of the Companies (Audit and Auditors)
Rules, 2014, in our opinion and to the best of our information and
according to the explanations given to us:
i. The Company has disclosed the impact of pending litigations on its
